As Pride Week comes to a
close, members of KU Queers
and Allies are remember-
ing why theyre proud to be
members of
the LGBT
Community.
This is the
20th annual
Pride Week
at KU, an
idea that
Pride Week
c o or di na -
tor Kellen
Bolt said he
found both exciting and daunt-
ing.
Pride week has been visible
this year, so its been awesome,
said Bolt, a sophomore from
Iola. We tried to make it as
big as possible and as visible as
possible. You want every Pride
Week to be the best.
Bolt said Pride Week was
important for the KU LGBT com-
munity because it allows mem-
bers to participate in events that
embrace their
differences and
individuality.
There are
a lot of queer
people on cam-
pus that you
dont neces-
sarily meet or
know, said
Bolt. This
brings every-
one together.
All of the events included a
question-and-answer session with
the speaker or artist, allowing
members of the audience to gain
the perspectives of prominent
members of the queer community.
Rachel Gadd-Nelson, educational
outreach coordinator for Queers
and Allies, said she felt that all
of the events were successful and
fulfilled their purpose.
Also, Im really excited about
the fact that were seeing a lot
of new people
in the commu-
nity coming to
our event, said
Ga dd- Ne l s on,
a junior from
Kansas City, Kan.
Its really nice to
see people that
arent part of
the usual crowd
there.
Among this weeks events was a
performance by Vogue Evolution,
a dance group that was on the
fourth season of MTVS Americas
Best Dance Crew. As the group
was speaking to the audience, one
of the members addressed the tri-
als of being an openly-gay person
of color.
We dont consider ourselves
black gay men, said Devon Pony
Webster of Vogue Evolution.
When the world sees us, they see
black gay men. We just see our-
selves.
G a d d -
Nelson said
this Pride
Week will
end with the
Brown Bag
Drag today,
outside of the
Kansas Union
at noon.
To mo r r ow,
members of Queers and Allies will
participate in the Pride Parade,
which begins at South Park at
10:45.

University administrators held
a groundbreaking ceremony
Thursday for a new expansion of
the Lied Center on West Campus.
The expansion, made possible
by a $2.5 million donation from
the Lied Foundation last fall, will
double the size of the main floor
lobby and fund the construction
of an education pavilion.
The education pavilion will
eventually provide extra space for
receptions, dinners and pre- and
post-concert discussions.
Construction is expected to
begin within the next few weeks
and last nine to 12 months.

Student raises
money in protest
As a Topeka-based extremist
group protests the Brown Bag
Drag 11:30 a.m. today in front of
the kansas Union, Daniel Held, a
sophomore from seattle, plans
to have his own protest by rais-
ing money for Planned Parent-
hood.
The only way to fght fre with
fre is not to yell at them, but to
do something that is the exact
opposite and raise money for a
charity that is against what they
stand for, Held said.
Held came up with the idea
at 10 p.m. on monday, and by
Tuesday afternoon, he had raised
almost $350. Held will be taking
donations during his counter-
protest, and each time a new
donation comes in, Held plans
to ring a bell and announce how
much money he has raised.
Im going to have a white-
board that says, Because you are
here, we have donated this much
money, and every time someone
donates money, Ill erase it and
update it, Held said.
Held said his goal was to dis-
courage future protests.
If every time they go some-
where, and people donated
money for every minute they are
at that place, theyre going to
stop showing up because people
are supporting the things they
hate, Held said.
Held said he wanted to protest
because he cant stand the
extremist groups message and
disagrees with everything they
stand for.
Infuriating people by preach-
ing hate is just disgusting, Held
said. What two consenting
adults do on their own time, and
doesnt afect me, shouldnt and
doesnt afect them.
Held said he plans on accept-
ing donations from 10 a.m. to 1
p.m. in front of the kansas Union.

CALEXICO, Calif. A mod-
erate aftershock rattled the
California-Mexico border even as
U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer was get-
ting a firsthand look at Calexico,
where a larger magnitude-7.2
quake did damage last weekend.
The magnitude-5.3 aftershock
hit Thursday around 9:45 a.m.
and was centered near Guadalupe
Victoria, a farming village about
30 miles southeast of Mexicali,
Mexico.
There were no reports of inju-
ries or damage.
Calexico Mayor David Ouzan
says Boxer was walking down his
citys main street when the after-
shock hit, and that windows could
be seen shaking.
Also Thursday, California Gov.
Arnold Gov. Schwarzenegger
issued an executive order provid-
ing more assistance for Imperial
County.
Sundays quake caused exten-
sive damage on both sides of the
border and killed two people in

at the Association of Public and
Land-grant Universities.
Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett,
chair of inauguration committee,
said the ceremony is taking place
in April because of the amount of
time it takes to plan and to coor-
dinate difficult schedules.
Kathleen Sebelius became
available at the last minute,
which we are very excited about,
McCluskey-Fawcett said.
The speakers for the ceremony
were chosen to represent differ-
ent voices of the University and
provide different perspectives, she
said.
Its traditional for the governor
to speak, McCluskey-Fawcett said.
Dr. James Moeser was chosen to
speak on behalf of the Chancellor
because he was the chancellor at
North Carolina that chose her to
be provost, so he has a very long
history with her.
Tickets to the inauguration will
be available Sunday in the Lied
Center Lobby.
The last KU inauguration
installed Robert Hemenway 14
years ago. Hemenway stepped
down as chancellor in 2009.
During Hemenways time as chan-
cellor, he made the University
more student-centered and over-
saw advances in life sciences
research all while continuing
to teach honors English courses,
according to the chancellors web
site.

Priest faces sexual
assault charges
By PATRICK CONDON
Associated press
MINNEAPOLIS Extraditing
a Roman Catholic priest from
his native India to face charges
of sexually
assaulting a
teenage girl
in Minnesota
could take sev-
eral years, the
prosecutor in
the case said
Thursday.
R o s e a u
C o u n t y
A t t o r n e y
Lisa Hanson
said federal officials told her
the extradition of Rev. Joseph
Palanivel Jeyapaul could last four
or five years if hes uncoopera-
tive. A formal extradition request
was filed with the Department of
Justice last fall, she said.
Im told the process is very
slow and convoluted, Hanson
said. If he decides to fight it, we
could be looking at a very long
process.
A Justice Department spokes-
woman said the agency does not
comment on extradition pro-
ceedings.
Jeyapaul was charged with two
counts of criminal sexual con-
duct in January 2007. Authorities
believe he assaulted a 14-year-old
female parishioner in the rectory
of Blessed Sacrament Catholic
Church in Greenbush, a small
town near the Canadian border
where he was assigned.
Jeyapaul, 55, has denied the
charges and said he was willing to
return and face them. The charg-
es were filed
more than a
year after he
returned to
India.
H a n s o n
said she is
c o m m i t -
ted to see-
ing Jeyapaul
face the U.S.
courts even if
it takes years.
But she said if Jeyapaul truly
wants to face the charges, he and
his superiors have the power to
expedite it.
We would
a p p r e c i a t e
any coop-
eration from
the Catholic
church in get-
ting him to
come back,
Hanson said.
J e y a p a u l
came to
Minnesota in 2004, and was
assigned to the church in
Greenbush, about 340 miles
northwest of Minneapolis.
He returned to India to visit
his ailing mother in late 2005.
While there, allegations surfaced
in Minnesota of an inappropri-
ate relationship he allegedly had
with a 16-year-old girl. Jeyapaul
was accused of gaining her trust
by encouraging her interest in
becoming a nun.
Bishop Victor Balke of the
Diocese of Crookston told
Jeyapaul not to come back or he
would go to the police, according
to an e-mail sent by Balke and
provided by a victims attorney.
Jeyapaul was later charged with
sexually assaulting the 14-year-
old girl.
Balke raised concerns with
several top Vatican officials about
Jeyapauls continued service to
the church. The Vatican said offi-
cials thought Jeyapaul should be
removed from the priesthood but
church law left the decision to his
local bishop
in India. The
Most Rev. A.
Almaraj, the
bishop of the
Diocese of
Ootacamund,
held a canoni-
cal trial and
s e n t e n c e d
Jeyapaul to
a year in a
monastery.
Almaraj said he could not take
strong action unless Jeyapauls
guilt was proved. Jeyapaul now
works in the dioceses office han-
dling paperwork for schools.
Jeyapaul was charged with
two counts of criminal
sexual conduct in January
2007.
We appreciate any coop-
eration from the Catholic
church in getting him to
come back.

A
s I walked on a tree-
shaded street the other
day in Lawrence, I
noticed something that I do not
commonly see: clothes hanging
to dry on a clothesline. At first,
I was struck by how seemingly
old-fashioned that was. Wasnt
that how our grandparents used
to dry their clothes? I thought
everyone had dryers now.
But, after a little more consid-
eration, I began to see the appeal
of line-drying clothes. Why waste
energy and money when there
are less expensive, eco-friendly
options available?
A recent article in The New
York Times by Alina Tugend
addressed peoples misuse and
overuse of appliances. People are
so caught up with the fast pace
of American life that they often
fail to read directions and do
not take time to consider their
options. A person shouldnt just
do something the way his or her
parents do because even parents
are sometimes guilty of not read-
ing directions.
If you arent willing to live
life as our ancestors did, there
are still ways to be energy effi-
cient while using appliances. For
example, if you insist on using an
electric dryer, clean out the lint
after every couple of loads. If the
lint builds up to the extreme, as
my mom tells me, the laundry
machine could explode. The
explosion of a dryer means no
more dryer for the owner and the
need to buy a new one. Although
I dont think this is a common
occurrence, clogged up lint does
decrease a dryers efficiency. And,
with the busy lives of college stu-
dents, there is little extra time to
wait for dry t-shirts.
Hanging clothes, using fewer
supplies and unplugging elec-
tronics when not using them
saves energy. This, in turn, saves
money. College students who are
frustrated with sky-high utility
bills could lessen both by unplug-
ging items not in use. Line-drying
clothes eliminates electric dryer
use and lessens a persons elec-
tric bill by up to 20 percent, said
executive director of Project
Laundry List Alexander P. Lee.
Students who live in dorms and
dont pay bills now may wonder
how this applies to them. I hope,
though, that these students still
wash their clothes in a washing
machine somewhere. In order to
wash clothes, laundry detergent,
which obviously costs money, is
essential, but this is often used
inefficiently. One good way to
save money is by actually read-
ing the directions on the back of
laundry detergent.
In her column in the Times,
Tugend states, The No. 1 sin,
according to repair people and
appliance experts, seems to be
adding too much soap to wash-
ing machines or dishwashers.
By reading the directions, soaps
will last longer and the user wont
have to spend money to buy more
as often.
Besides clothes washers and
dryers, there are other appli-
ances and electronics that take
away energy. These include cell
phones, computers, microwaves
and more. After a phone or com-
puter is charged, simply unplug
the chargers. According to the
U.S. Department of Energy, appli-
ances and electronics continue to
use energy when they are turned
off and plugged in. These energy-
sucking appliances are sometimes
referred to as vampire appliances.
The only way to stop their energy
drainage is by unplugging them
after use. However, I know that
does not always happen. On
hectic days, I sometimes run
away from my Mac while it is
still turned on, draining its bat-
tery and wasting energy. Using
Energy Star labeled electronics
can also save energy. For example,
according to the U.S. Department
of Energy, I could save up to 70
percent more energy if I had an
Energy Star computer, even if I
absent-mindedly left it plugged
in. As if that isnt good enough,
this would also improve the over-
all life of my computer, which
would be helpful because I am
not always at a place where I am
able to charge it. I know this is
a problem that many students
are familiar with but, thanks to
Energy Star and efficiency, the
incidence of these problems can
be reduced.
Although line-drying clothes
and hand writing essays are ideal-
ly the most energy efficient, some
dont have the time or they desire
our technological society. That is
why it is good to know that living
an eco-friendly life doesnt have
to be all-or-nothing. By mak-
ing small adjustments, such as
unplugging appliances and clean-
ing lint from the dryer, everyone
can save energy and money.

L
ast month, President
Obama threw environmen-
talists for a curve when
he announced plans to expand
offshore drilling in the U.S. Then,
he turned around that same week
and announced new regulations
on greenhouse gas emissions for
automobiles. Is Obama toying
with environmentalists emo-
tions, or is this a part of a smart
strategy for improving our
energy economy and security?
Certainly, the offshore drilling
announcement was something of
a disappointment for me, being
something of an environmental-
ist. I would include myself among
those who think the potential
gains are not worth the environ-
mental risks attached with drill-
ing. However, I thought the pro-
posal was worth a deeper look.
Nearly 167 million acres of
ocean along the East Coast and
130 million acres near northern
Alaska will be open for oil explo-
ration under Obamas proposal.
But, the environmentally-fragile
Bristol Bay will fall under federal
protections. Essentially, this is a
compromised version of a similar
plan from President G.W. Bush.
There exists a strong argument
for expanding domestic produc-
tion in the face of potential secu-
rity threats posed by a reliance
on foreign oil. The U.S. imports
58 percent of the oil it consumes
annually. This weakens our global
ability to project power.
Political scientist Hans
Morgenthau once said that the
abundance of natural resources
in the U.S. is the source of much
of its power. He said, Countries
enjoying self-sufficiency, such
as the United States and Russia,
need not divert their national
energies and foreign policies from
their primary objectives in order
to make sure their populations
will not starve in war.
The standard environmentalist
counter to this is that expanding
domestic drilling in the proposed
areas wouldnt come close to sub-
stantially decreasing our depen-
dence on foreign oil. Although
this holds some truth, Obamas
announcement is more political
maneuvering than compromising
core environmental values.
A closer look at the policy
behind the announcement reveals
that, in truth, no new drilling is
guaranteed to occur. New leases
would only be granted to oil
companies after various geologic
and environmental reviews of the
given lease proposals. Although
many people find it difficult to
have much trust in public offi-
cials, Id like to believe that the
Obama Interior Department and
EPA would not allow a lease sale
if a great environmental risk were
posed by new drilling.
Combine this with other recent
Obama energy-related announce-
ments, including replacing the
federal vehicle fleet with hybrids,
fueling Department of Defense
vehicles with biodiesel and the
regulation on greenhouse gases
for new automobiles, and a strong
political strategy for a trans-
formed energy economy emerges.
I hope that this stretch of new,
energy-related policies will cre-
ate bipartisan momentum for the
energy and climate legislation
about to be proposed by Senators
Lindsey Graham, John Kerry and
Joe Lieberman.
Then again, I wouldve liked
to believe in a similar bipartisan
spirit around a health care plan
that contained many proposals
originating from conservatives.
Either way, I dont think
Obama has betrayed the various
environmental interests with this
new drilling proposal. Instead, it
represents smart political postur-
ing to build support for envi-
ronmental legislation Americans
should get behind.

I would like to expand upon the
analogy offered in an editorial
comparing socialism and capital-
ism. The idea was that if student
grades were averaged out, the
best students would stop trying,
thus proving socialism makes
society lazy. But socialism isnt
about taking away the rewards of
the successful. Socialism is the
allocation of public resources so
that everybody will have a more
fair chance to compete, or even
survive.
To use the classroom analogy,
socialism would be like giving
every student a syllabus on the
first day of class; and if a student
misses that first day of class,
they can still get a syllabus at
another time. Capitalism would
be giving the first three or four
students who show up to class a
syllabus and ignoring everyone
else. Real world example: gov-
ernment funding for suburbs in
the 1950s, which helped create
property appreciation for hom-
eowners. The funding ignored
minorities who were red-lined
out of home loans.
As a future millionaire myself,
Ill have no problem paying
more than my fair share of taxes
for fire departments, libraries
and health care because I know
that having my neighbors house
burn down doesnt help me,
having illiterate people doesnt
help me and having sick people
doesnt help me. Even if Im
a firefighter, librarian or doc-
tor, these dont help because
I couldve used that time or
money on something new (see:
Broken Window Fallacy).
As a last note, America can
implement socialist policies
and has for centuries without
being socialist; much in the way
that I can drink a beer without
being an alcoholic. So stop
looking for the simplest answer,
because more times than not, its
not simple.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA, Kan. A proposed
casino south of Wichita was in
doubt Thursday after Gov. Mark
Parkinson refused to grant its
developers a regulatory reprieve.
Partners in the $225 million
Chisholm Creek project wanted
to delay a state boards decision on
their plans. They said they must
have local zoning issues settled
and need to know whether legisla-
tors will rewrite Kansas gambling
laws to make their project less
profitable.
The Lottery Gaming Facility
Review Board reluctantly put off
a vote for 60 days after Chisholm
Creek officials said this week
that theyd abandon the project
otherwise even if the board
approved it. But under state law,
only Parkinson could extend the
boards April 19 deadline.
Parkinson rejected the boards
request for an extension. He
noted that the states current bud-
get already anticipates collecting
an upfront, $25 million fee from
Chisholm Creek for the right to
build and manage the casino for
the Kansas Lottery.
The state of Kansas needs a
clear understanding of its financ-
es, Parkinson said in a statement.
It is in everybodys best interests
to move forward with this pro-
posal in a timely manner and to
avoid further
delays.
Ch i s ho l m
Creek attorney
John Frieden
said the part-
nership is
still consider-
ing how to
respond. He
said Kansas law
limits the gov-
ernors discre-
tion in denying
a deadline extension.
The action of the governor
failed to follow the law and con-
sequently has jeopardized state
revenues this year and perhaps
forever for a state-owned gam-
ing operation in south-central
Kansas, Frieden said.
Chairman Matt All said the
review board will meet before
April 19 to vote on the project.
We didnt really see a strong
reason to delay it either, but
we were trying to be as accom-
modating to the applicant as
possible, he said.
Chisholm Creek would build
its casino near Mulvane, about
20 miles south of Wichita. Under
Kansas law, the lottery would own
the rights to the new gambling and
the gambling equipment, down to
the cards and dice.
The state would claim not only
its $25 mil-
lion fee but 22
percent of the
gambling rev-
enues.
The lot-
tery and local
officials have
been trying to
bring a casino
to Sumner
County for
more than
two years,
and Chisholm Creek was the only
remaining applicant.
Janis Hellard, director of the
countys economic development
office, said even if Chisholm Creek
pulls out, an improving economy
will make a casino investment
attractive.
Were very optimistic about it
and feel like its still a good loca-
tion, she said.
Chisholm Creek officials already
were concerned about plans by the
Wyandotte Nation to build a casi-
no in Park City, north of Wichita.
The northeast Oklahoma tribe is
seeking the federal governments
permission.
But in recent weeks, Chisholm
Creek officials also have worried
that Kansas legislators will allow a
second vote in Sedgwick County to
authorize slot machines at Wichita
Greyhound Park. Voters rejected
the idea in 2007, and the track
closed soon afterward.
Chisholm Creek officials have
warned legislators that passing
such a proposal would force them
to abandon their project.
A bill without a slots vote
is before the Kansas Senate.
Lawmakers reconvene April 28 to
wrap up their business for the
year.
As for zoning issues, they were
tied up by a legal dispute between
Sumner County and Mulvane over
whether the city could annex the
casino site. The Kansas Court of
Appeals recently ruled in the citys
favor, and Chisholm Creek must
deal with Mulvane officials.

Award-winning quartet
coming to Lied Center
BY ALISON CUMBOW
alisonc@kansan.com
In 1973, the Vietnam war
was winding down, and David
Harrington had just returned
from Canada.
Finding the right kind of music
to play in that environment was
difficult for me, he said.
Then one night, he heard a
piece called Black Angels, a work
composed by George Crumb in an
electric string quartet.
Harrington said he had never
heard a piece that had shouting
in various languages, gongs and
amplified strings.
I had this experience where I
knew exactly what I wanted to do
for the rest of my life, he said. In
order to do that, I needed to start
a group.
So, he did.
Harrington plays the first vio-
lin in his Grammy award-winning
Kronos Quartet, which has been
performing and collaborating
with different artists for 35 years.
Kronos Quartet will perform at
the Lied Center Tuesday at 7:30
p.m.
Kyle Courtney, a senior from
Kansas City and a ticket salesman
at the Lied Center, said there were
about 1,400 tickets left for sale out
of 2,000 total tickets.
Kronos has worked with Terry
Riley, and according to the press
release the group has performed
with Tom Waits, Howard Zinn,
and David Bowie.
Harrington said he keeps his
ears open 24 hours a day, attempt-
ing to find and be involved with
music that magnetized him in the
same way that Black Angels did.
Everyones entry into the world
of music is so different, he said.
When you think back about music
that youve heard in your life, it
will be a sound or a certain word
or instrumental moment that you
think is the most wonderful, cool-
est moment.
He said he hoped there would
be one of those moments for the
audience at the Lied Center.
Were bringing a lot of ele-
ments from a wide world of music
that we love, he said.

Engineering students plan
pancake feed for Haiti relief
BY SAMANTHA FOSTER
sfoster@kansan.com
Students in the Self Engineering
Leadership Fellows program
are flipping flapjacks for a good
cause.
SELF students set the goal for
Saturdays third annual Flapjacks
for Philanthropy fundraiser
at $4,000, which is double the
amount of money collected at last
years event. The profits from the
pancake feed will go to Habitat
for Humanity for Haiti relief.
Samantha Forbes, a sophomore
from Kearney,
Mo., and chair
of the event,
said the group
decided to
double the
goal because
of increased
efforts to solic-
it community
and campus-
wide support.
This years
o r g a n i z e r s
asked for corporate sponsors by
sending out letters through KU
Endowment. They have already
raised $1,300 through donations
from three companies, and other
companies have donated prizes
for the raffle or bought tickets for
the pancake feed.
Last year they marketed it just
to the School of Engineering but
this year were trying to make it a
campus-wide event, Forbes said.
Forbes said the sophomores in
the SELF program, who are in
charge of the event, brainstormed
where the money from the fund-
raiser should go. They chose
Haiti relief and then decided to
go through Habitat for Humanity
because the organization already
had a strong presence in Haiti.
We decided that, as engineers,
the relief part and rebuilding of
Haiti would be an important part
for us to focus on, Forbes said.
Joey Meyer, a junior from
St. Louis and president of KU
Habitat for Humanity, said
Habitat International has been
working in Haiti to build homes
that will withstand earthquakes
and hurri-
canes. He said
there are lots
of volunteers
nat i onwi de
who want
to help with
rebuilding in
Haiti but what
the organiza-
tion needed
more than
anything was
money and
supplies.
Meyer said the pancake feed
would be a fun event for people
to go to and be able to help Haiti
at the same time.
Its a fun event, but I think on a
more serious note with Haiti and
all that theyre going through, this
is a more serious event where we
dont have to go down, although
we want to go down we can
do something good here, Meyer
said.
Forbes said the money from last
years Flapjacks for Philanthropy
fundraiser also went to Habitat
for Humanity, but it went to help
a local family.
Forbes said Chris Cakes, a
catering company based in the
Kansas City area, was making the
pancakes for the fundraiser. She
said the company makes the pan-
cakes very quickly and then flips
them at the customers, so its an
exciting sports game almost.
The SELF program is a lead-
ership enrichment program for
engineering students that was
started three years ago. Forbes
said students in the program get
to practice their managing and
organizing skills by planning
events like this fundraiser, which
Forbes said is their big event for
the spring, and a high school
design program in the fall, which
the SELF students organized for
the first time this year.
The fundraiser will be held
Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30
a.m. in Eaton Hall.

Rowing challenge ahead
By Ben Ward

Sophomore catcher James
Stanfield and the rest of his team-
mates remember sweeping then-
No. 1 Texas last season at Hoglund
Ballpark.
The Jayhawks know that the
Longhorns remember it, too.
Theyre going to come out extra
hard to try and beat us, Stanfield
said.
Memories from last season
aside, when Kansas (19-10-1, 3-2-
1) begins its third conference series
tonight in Austin against No. 6
Texas, both teams starting pitching
will take the forefront.
The Longhorns boast one of the
best pitching staffs in Division I,
with the rotation headed up by ace
Taylor Jungmann, and book-ended
by a stout bullpen.
Because of Texas pitching prow-
ess, coach Ritch Price said the only
way the Jayhawks would have a
successful weekend was if their
three starters could pitch three
quality outings.
Were going go face the team
with the best starting pitching and
best bullpen in America, and were
going to have to pitch at their
level, Price said.
Texas may only have a .278 team
batting average last in the Big
12 but the team can certainly hit
for power. It has hit a conference-
best 34 home runs this season.
Saturdays starter Cameron Selik
said he was undaunted by facing
his third ranked team of the sea-
son.
Everyone on our team will say
theyre up for the challenge, Selik
said.
Stanfield echoed Seliks senti-
ments, saying hes confident that
the Jayhawk starters can limit the
Longhorns offensively.
The great thing about our start-
ers is regardless of whether or not
they have their best stuff, they bat-
tle out there and give us a chance to
win, Stanfield said.
Even if Kansas pitchers turn in
a weekends worth of sound efforts,
the burden also falls on the hitters
to string together tough at-bats.
We need to make sure we put
W
ednesday was Xavier
Henrys day, so, when
the question came up
about what Xaviers departure
meant for him, Xaviers older
brother C.J. shrugged it off.
Im not here to discuss anything
about me, C.J. said. Im just here
to support Xavier.
It seemed to certify what most
people were assuming. With Xavier
goes his brother. C.J. Henry would
become the proud owner of the
least memorable career in Kansas
history. After
all, if he was
staying, he
would have just
said so.
However, at
least according
to coach Bill
Self, the elder
Henry will be
back.
I have a the-
ory on why he chose to come back,
and why its been the right decision
all along, regardless of what some
peers in the industry thought.
Most people argued that C.J.
Henry abandoned his injury-
riddled minor league career after
being a first-round draft pick of
the New York Yankees because he
wanted to come to school and play
basketball with his brother. But if
that were the case, he wouldnt have
done it a year before Xavier ever
enrolled in college. C.J. spent last
year burning a medical redshirt on
the Memphis Tigers bench under
then-coach John Calipari.
Heres my theory (and thats all it
is): C.J. Henry, as good an athlete as
he is and thats incredibly good,
if hes a former first-round pick in
baseball thats good enough to be a
recruit, twice, of one of the best pro-
grams in college basketball has
failed once as a professional athlete.
Even though it is largely because of
injuries that Henry didnt make it
as a shortstop in the Yankees farm
system, that doesnt change the fact
that he didnt make it.
I feel that C.J. Henry came back
to school to give himself the best
shot left to make a living playing
sports. That chance lies in basket-
ball, and leaving school would be
an abrupt halting of that oppor-
tunity.
Even if Henry finishes out his
eligibility, there is no certainty that
he has a shot at the NBA, although
a professional career in Europe
appears to be a legitimate possibility
at this point. If you look at Henry,
though, you see a lot of the tools
that make an NBA prospect. Hes
a 6-foot-4 point guard that plays a
relatively error-free game and has
range extending well past the three-
point line. Hes not a dominant
slasher in the mold of John Wall or
Derrick Rose, and hell never be the
quickest player on the floor, but he
does a lot of things right.
He certainly has the ability if
he can stay healthy for the first
time in six years to at least
be a contributor for the 2010-11
Jayhawks. And if he can do that,
Henrys professional aspirations
may finally come to light.
Just like leaving for the NBA
was the right decision for his little
brother, C.J. Henrys decision to
stay at Kansas will prove to be in
his best interests.

first round of the WNBA draft
Thursday. They also took the
National Player of the Year,
Connecticuts Tina Charles with
the No. 1 pick, establishing a lethal
inside-outside combo for years to
come.
Youve got to be able to score
in the WNBA. Everybody wants
kids that can score and weve
all watched for years how many
ways she can score, coach Bonnie
Henrickson said of McCray.
Some draft experts predicted
that the Olathe natives stock had
dropped after she tore the ACL in
her left knee during a midseason
practice. While her rehabilitation
process will continue to move
steadily, McCrays early selection
on draft day disproved that
theory.
Your opportunity is delayed,
its not denied, Henrickson said
to McCray after the injury.
Because of her time off the
court, Henrickson said that
McCray was able to improve her
basketball IQ. She developed
a greater understanding of
previously overshadowed aspects
of the game as she sat on the
sideline between assistant coaches
and observed.
Shes a junkie, Henrickson
said. I mean she watches
everything. Mens or womens, it
doesnt matter. She loves to watch
the game.
McCrays passion for basketball
and natural talent may ideally mesh
with the rebuilding team that she
will join after her rehabilitation.
Last season, the Sun finished
16-18 and missed the playoffs.
Then it made a blockbuster trade,
swapping shooting guard Lindsay
Whalen and the No. 2 pick with
the Minnesota Lynx for point
guard Renee Montgomery and the
No. 1 pick.
The trade sent Whalen and
Montgomery back to the states
of their respective alma maters
(Minnesota and Connecticut) and
also paved the path for McCray,
who becomes the Suns freshly
installed scorer. She may not start
immediately, considering both her
injury and teammate seniority,
but the Sun envision McCray as
a capable replacement to Whalen
and a cornerstone of its future.
When that happened, I
thought maybe they were trying
to get her at No. 7, Henrickson
said of Connecticuts trade.
Thats the team we had the most

Commentary
BaseBall
I
wouldnt call myself a Rec regular.
I try to relive my high school
basketball glory days at least once a
week, even though pickup basketball is
a completely different beast.
By now, I think Ive learned what
kind of games produce the best basket-
ball you know, open and free-flowing
and what kind of games produce Big
10-style basketball you know, slow
and sloppy.
Some rules are uniform: Winners
stay, the ball must be passed after its
checked in and players that win get a
couple minutes off to catch their breath.
Now heres the Morning Brews rules
for Rec Ball. They are sure to upset
some people, but I feel the implementa-
tion of these rules would increase the
level of pickup basketball.
1. Games should be 1s and 2s to 15.
Period. In this system, baskets worth
two points in a regular game of basket-
ball are worth one and three-pointers
are worth two. The other scoring sys-
tem makes every basket, regardless of
location, a single point. Those games
run to 12. The common argument for
a 12-point system is that it finishes
quicker, allowing the next five players
to get on the court. But if each team
hits three three-pointers, which hap-
pens a lot because of the doubled value
of the shot, the 15-point game ends just
as quick as a 12-point game. It is also
a more similar game to the one we all
know: the one with a three-point line.
2. Offensive player calls fouls, but you
have to call it quick. You cant call a foul
after you see your shot bang off the rim.
As soon as you feel the contact, you
must call Foul or something similar so
play doesnt continue.
If youre going to call it late in the
game, it better be legit. Nothing is more
irritating than the guy who doesnt call
the hand check in the first half of the
game and calls a touch foul with the
game on the line. In college and NBA
basketball, fouls are called less often in
the closing moments because fans want
to see players play without whistles.
There are no fans for Rec ball, but the
same principle applies. Dont consider
the moment when making the call.
3. If your team has the next game,
you must be waiting on the sideline.
Putting your team in on several courts
at once is just bad Rec etiquette. You
cant expect to hold on to the next game
if youre wandering around to other
courts.
4. Cherry-picking is not allowed.
Cherry-picking is when a player doesnt
get back to play defense and instead
hangs around on the far side of the
court away from the game action. It
usually leads to an easy layup. In non
fast-break situations, players should
be required to at least pass half-court
before looking to score.
5. Finally, all lasting disputes should
be settled by the offensive team taking a
three-point shot from the top of the
key. A make gives the ball back to the
offense, a miss turns it over. Offense can
choose the shooter.
In all likelihood, there wont be some
radical reformation in the rules of
pickup basketball at the Rec. But simply
considering the best rules for a more
fun game will enhance the quality of
basketball on the court.
If you agree with any or all of the
rules, try to implement them in the next
game. If you disagree, just be sure to
consider why your rules are better than
these.

Woods posts four-under
in frst round at Augusta
AssociAted Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. Tiger
Woods played like the last five
months never happened.
Even more surprising, he felt
that way, too.
No longer the same person
after he was caught cheating on
his wife, Woods looked every bit
the same golfer Thursday when he
opened with a 4-under 68 his
best first round ever at Augusta
National that left him only
two shots behind 50-year-old
Fred Couples on an extraordinary
opening day at the Masters.
Couples, who played a practice
round with Woods on Monday,
sauntered along in tennis shoes
and no socks and shot a 6-under
66. It was his best score ever at the
Masters and made him the oldest
player to be the outright leader for
any round.
I never really thought about
what I was shooting, said Couples,
who already has won three times
this year on the 50-and-older
Champions Tour. It was a fun
day for me. I still think I can play,
and if I putt well Ive got to be
some kind of factor in my mind.
Tom Watson, at 60 the oldest
player in this Masters, picked up
from his amazing ride at last years
British Open with a bogey-free
round of 67 that left him tied with
Lee Westwood, Phil Mickelson,
PGA champion Y.E. Yang and K.J.
Choi.
My goals were to play better
than Ive played in the last five
or six years, and I achieved that
for the first round, Watson
said. Im playing pretty well. Ive
said I have to play better than 90
percent to be successful on this
golf course.
Still, this day was always going
to be about Woods.
Im here to play a golf tourna-
ment, he answered.

Te rowing team will travel out
east to Lewisberry, Penn., this
weekend to race against Old Do-
minion, Rhode Island University,
and Bucknell in three head-to-
head races. Te Jayhawks are in
strong spirits afer defeating rival
Kansas State in the Kansas Cup
last weekend.
I think everyone is really ex-
cited because we need more races
before the Big 12 championships
and we have a lot to work on these
next few races, Lindsey Law-
rence, a senior from Lawrence,
said.
Tis weekend will provide
a test for the Jayhawks, hav-
ing to compete in three difer-
ent head-to-head competitions
over a two-day stretch. First up
is Old Dominion at 7 a.m. Sat-
urday. It will ofer little time for
rest because then at 3 p.m., the
Jayhawks will face of against the
Rhode Island University Rams.
Te Jayhawks fnish the weekend
Sunday at 7 a.m., racing against
the Bucknell Bison.
You go out hard for every race,
Stacy Rachow, a senior from Phil-
lipsburgh, said. We had multiple
races in one day in Oklahoma,
so we have had that experience
and we trained hard all winter to
get our ftness up.
Tis will mark the frst time the
Jayhawks row outside the Big 12
this season.
Its a lot more fun because the
sport is a lot more popular out
east, Lawrence said. Here it is
only us rowing on the Kansas
River, but out east you have mul-
tiple teams on the same body of
water.

After being swept in a double-
header by No. 7 Missouri, Kansas
is frustrated and ready for a confer-
ence win. Junior catcher Brittney
Hile said Kansas is ready to give
it its all.
Were going to come out and
give it to Baylor because we have
that extra motivation, Hile said.
Theyre going to get the best of
us.
Kansas will play two games in
Waco, Tex. this weekend. Baylor
will be the first unranked Big 12
Conference opponent that Kansas
has faced all season. The Bears
were ranked last week and are still
receiving votes. Kansas will come
in at 16-21 (0-6) while Baylor is
21-13 (2-3).
Kansas competed well with
Missouri in the first game and
needs to build on that against
Baylor, coach Megan Smith said.
We proved to ourselves we
belonged out there and we could
compete, Smith said. We can use
the positives to springboard into
Baylor.
Smith said she was going to talk
to the team this week about mental
toughness, as that may have been a
factor in the Missouri series.
I think thats something that
got to us today was the mental
toughness in the circle, Smith said.
Hopefully we will be able to be
better with that this weekend.
Kansas offense has struggled in
the past few weeks, averaging about
two runs a game during Big 12 play.
The Jayhawks have also allowed
big plays, including two three-run
homers from Missouri and two
grand slams from Texas A&M,
which take them out of games.
While the Jayhawks have certain
aspects of their game that shine,
they never seem to have all aspects
of their game click at the same
time, senior infielder Amanda Jobe
said.
Once we put everything togeth-
er our pitching, our defense and
our hitting were going to be
really successful, Jobe said.
Kansas will return to Arrocha
Ballpark after the Baylor series
to play a game against Nebraska

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Miguel
Cabrera homered and drove in
four runs and Dontrelle Willis
turned in six solid innings in his
frst regular-season start in almost
10 months, leading the Detroit Ti-
gers to a 7-3 victory over the Kan-
sas City Royals Tursday.
Te Royals bullpen blew three
saves in the season-opening three-
game series against the Tigers.
Willis, plagued with chronic
wildness during
his shortened
2009 season,
walked the frst
batter he faced
on four pitches.
But the former
two-time Na-
tional League
All-Star issued
only one more
base on balls
and had four strikeouts, giving up
two runs on seven hits. It was his
frst start since issuing a career-
high eight walks last June and then
going on the disabled list for the
rest of the season with social anxi-
ety.
C a b r e r a
went 4 for 5
with a three-
run homer
and an RBI
single. In 41
games against
the Royals,
hes hitting
.363 with 13
home runs
and 39 RBIs.
Eddie Bonine (1-0) pitched an
inning of relief, giving up three
hits. He escaped unscathed when
Alberto Callaspo capped a dread-
ful day at the plate by grounding
out with the bases loaded.
Afer Dusty Hughes walked
Johnny Damon leading of the De-
troit eighth, Luis Mendoza (0-1)
came in and surrendered an infeld
single to Magglio Ordonez, who
had a solo home run of starter
Brian Bannister in the sixth.
Cabrera then clubbed his sec-
ond home run in two days for a 4-2
lead. Cabrera added an RBI single
in the ninth and Justin Jackson
doubled home another run. Te
third run scored in the ninth when
Roman Colon hit Ryan Raburn
with the bases loaded.

Henrys exit a frst for Self
By COREy THIBODEAUX
cthibodeaux@kansan.com
twitter.com/c_thibodeaux
Coach Bill Self can do it all.
Almost.
He has a
c o m b i n e d
record of 202-
43 in seven
seasons with
Kansas. He
finishes at the
top of the Big
12 almost every
year. He even
has a champi-
onship.
And after freshman guard Xavier
Henry declared for the draft, it was
Self s first one and done player,
which is why he thinks it may
scare away some recruits.
Self s never had a one-and-
done guy, Self said, imitating his
critics. Why would you want to
go there? Or, theyll hold you back
there.
Self said he doesnt care about
whether his recruit is a one-and-
done player or not. He has had
NBA-caliber players over the years,
but in recent
memory only
one Darrell
Arthur in 2008
left before
his junior year.
But this sea-
son, Self signed
Henry know-
ing he would
probably be
gone if he had
a good season
this year. He spent months trying
to get Henry to come to Kansas, if
only for this season.
And Self wouldnt hesitate to do
it all over.
Id put four years in again to
recruit Xavier if we could get him
for one, Self said.
But the talk about Self having
an NBA-ready freshman just to sit
on the bench and develop, he said,
is ridiculous. All that matters is
who can help him win games, and
Henry was a perfect example.
Even Henry found it beneficial
to spend a year in college, and not
just for developing his basketball
skill-set.
Im more
prepared now
than I really
would have
been in high
school from
a work ethic
s t a n d p o i nt
and from
a mind-set
st andpoi nt ,
Henry said.
Knowing he had players on the
team who were potential high-
pick selections in the NBA draft,
Self said he set his players up
to succeed, without changing his
game plan.
Henry wasnt asked to do much
this season and it worked for him.
Senior guard Sherron Collins and
junior center Cole Aldrich were
the mainstays of the Jayhawks, but
Henry had his opportunities.
No matter what the age, Self
said, a player can go whenever he
is ready.
If hes a junior, you say go, he
said. So why wouldnt you say go
as a freshman?
But Self has mixed feelings
about the one-and-done rule. He
said Wednesday that the rule helps
a college get a great ambassador
for their program and gets the
player an education.
On the other hand, and only in
a few isolated instances, a player
could technically stay in school
with six credit hours under his
belt. Henry chose to take 36.
I think its a bad rule, but not in
his case, Self said. Its a bad rule
because you could make a mock-
ery out of it if you chose to.

JayHawKs vs. longHorns
KU aims for consecutive Texas sweeps
TExAS-SIzED SHOwDOwN
question mArk
plAyer to wAtch
A perennial national-title contender, no. 6 Texas currently sits atop the Big 12 standings at 7-2 in
conference play. The Longhorns sweep against oklahoma last week moved them three games ahead of
second-place kansas state.
plAyer to wAtch
The Jayhawks (19-10-1, 3-2-1) have won seven of their last 10 games, and have opened each of their
Big 12 series with a victory on Friday night. kansas swept then top-ranked Texas last season at Hoglund
Ballpark.
will the Jayhawks be able to score enough runs against
the Longhorns?
Texas pitching staf has been nothing short of re-
markable this season. As a team the Longhorns staf
boasts an impressive 2.57 ERA and holds opposing
hitters to a meager .219 batting average. While the
Jayhawk pitchers need to throw well, the ofense
still needs to produce runs to win.
Junior right felder Casey Lytle
As the Jayhawks lead-of man, its Lytles responsibility to
work deep into the count and set the table for the rest of the
lineup. When Lytle gets on base he menaces kansas opponents,
having scored 30 runs with eight stolen bases. If Lytle can get
the Jayhawks started early and often, it could be a long week-
end for the Longhorn pitchers.
4.77 kansas staf ERA
.306 kansas team batting average
.276 opposing batting average against kansas
If we can go down there and play well, I think we have a
good enough team that we can hang with them, junior third
baseman Tony Thompson said.
Junior T.J. walz: Walz has eight career victories against teams ranked in the
top 25. The junior has also won the frst game of kansas last three weekend series.
considering Walz competition (Taylor Jungmann 3-1, 2.94 ERA) he needs to start the
weekend with an especially strong outing.
Senior Cameron Selik: Despite a career-high eight strikeouts last saturday
against no. 22 Texas A&m, selik sufered his second loss of the season after a late rally. The burly
right-hander is kansas most outwardly confdent pitcher, and that swagger should help him in
Austin.
Senior Brett Bollman: With a fastball that tops out in the high-80s, Bollman isnt going to
overpower anyone. But hes a control whiz who fools hitter with sharp of-speed pitches. If Bollman
can give the Jayhawks fve or six strong innings on sunday, they have a great chance.
Can Kansas out-pitch the Longhorns?
In order for kansas to win two games or get the outright sweep of Texas, two things must hap-
pen: The starters need to go at least six to eight innings into the game and the bullpen needs to
hold leads. Tanner Poppe and the bullpen did a great job of that against creighton on Wednesday.
can they do it again?
Junior pitcher Chance Rufn
Rufn is one of the top closers in the nation and his stat line in 2010 is proof of that.
seven saves, a league leading 0.59 ERA and opposing batters are hitting an average .115.
If Texas has a lead late in the game, Rufns entry could spell doom for the Jayhawks.
34 Home runs, tied for second in the Big 12
.279 Team batting average, lowest in the Big 12
8.83 strikeouts per nine innings pitched
question mArk
Sophomore Taylor Jungmann
Jungmann is a potential frst-round draft pick in the mLB draft next season and one
of the best starting pitchers in the country. In his last start against oklahoma, Jung-
mann pitched seven innings, struck out six and picked up his third victory.
Junior Brandon workman
Workmans 2010 numbers are great; 5-1 with a 3.09 ERA. Workman can go deep
into games as he has a team-leading two complete games this season. Against
oklahoma, Workman pitched eight innings with eight strikeouts.
Junior Cole Green
As the only undefeated Longhorn starter, Greens 6-0 record includes
one complete game and a nine-strikeout performance against
Iowa. out of all of the Longhorn starters, Green has the lowest
opponent batting average at .213. In his last start against
oklahoma, Green picked up the victory with a six-strikeout
performance in 7 2/3 innings.
GAme stArters
projected stArtinG pitchers
The Longhorns undoubtedly remember getting swept at Hoglund last year, and they should be
eager to exact their revenge. But if kansas can get quality starts from its pitchers and fnd a way to
manufacture runs against Texas hurlers, then it has a good chance to earn a few road victories in
Austin.
robby Price
up runs for our pitching staff,
junior Tony Thompson said.
Though the Jayhawks average
7.5 runs per game, theyll have
their hands full against the afore-
mentioned Longhorns staff. Its
team ERA (2.55) is nearly a full
run better than the conferences
next best.
Texas staff is also coming off a
series against Oklahoma where it
allowed only three runs in a three-
game series sweep.
Despite the Longhorns impres-
sive numbers from the mound,
Stanfield said he knew the Jayhawks
could hit against anyone.
Our bats have been coming
through in key situations lately,
he said.
And in regards to last seasons
sweep, Selik acknowledged this
was a different Kansas team but
one that was more than capable of
knocking off Texas on the road.
We all know they remember
it, Selik said. But we cant let any-
thing like that get to us. Well let
them worry about all those emo-
tions and just play our game.
