Udall chair steps down, but not out of foundation

PUBLIC SAFETY

By Eliza Molk DAILY WILDCAT

Terry Bracy, board chair of the Udall Foundation, is stepping down from his position at the end of October.

He has been the board’s chair for 17 years and welcomed the foundation’s stewardship of the U.S. Institute for Environmental Conflict Resolution, which mediates environmental issues in 46 states around the country.

He also helped cofound the Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy, which helps develop resources for Indigenous nations in the U.S.

Hazmat crews respond to the Shantz building on Monday. The building was evacuated due to a chemical spill on the fifth floor.

Daily Wildcat: Why are you choosing to step down as chair of the Udall Foundation?

Bracy: I believe in generational change. As much as I would love Terry Bracy to do this job for the rest of my outgoing Udall life, I know in my heart that the right thing to do is turn it over to Foundation chair people with new ideas and visions.

Transitions are very important in organizations, and leaving is a part of leadership. I’m recognizing and trying to honor that.

Nitric acid spill forces evacuation of Shantz

How were you able to expand the foundation, both through taking on more challenging work to growing its staff from two to more than 30 people?

We’re a federal agency, and Congress gave our charter to us. Initially, we began as the fourth federal educational foundation. Our duties were in environment and Native American affairs, which were areas (former Congressman) Mo Udall had an impact. In the beginning, our staff was small, and over time we got a few more staff members for scholarship programs.

In 1998, U.S. Senator John McCain called me and had the idea for a new federal agency to mediate disputes for the environment. Courts were clogged with environmental lawsuits and no decisions were being made. He felt we ought to try and put together

A spilled container of nitric acid forced the evacuation of the Shantz building on Monday.

Officers on scene said no one was hurt in the accident.

The spill occurred when a glass container filled with nitric acid dropped and broke.

According to Tucson Fire Prevention Capt.

Jeff Langejans, someone tried to neutralize the spill with sodium bicarbonate, causing an

exothermic reaction that melted the copper piping on compressed air containers in the lab.

Fourth Street closed while Fire officials and a hazardous materials control team responded to the incident.

“It’s been isolated, it was an accident,” Langejans said.

Sgt. Juan Alvarez of the University of Arizona Police Department said such spills are rare, but establishing a perimeter and ensuring public safety are the most important things when they do.

Lloyd Wundrock, a health safety officer for Risk Management Services, said he believes that anywhere between 500 and 1000 ml of the liquid were spilled. No one was hurt in the incident, according to Langejans, but that

doesn’t mean the incident was without risk.

“Nitric acid is a level four on what we call our fire diamond, which means it’s as bad as it gets,” Langejans said.

According to Chris Kopach, assistant vice president of Facilities Management, the spill occurred on the fifth floor of the building, which houses only offices and laboratories so no classes were canceled as a result.

Kopach said Facilities Management is usually equipped to deal with chemical spills if they can get to them quickly enough, but they were unable to so this time so they had to call in TFD for help.

Both Fourth Street and the fifth floor of the building were reopened shortly after the incident.

Earthquake death toll reaches 279 At least another 1,300 injured as southeastern Turkey combats disaster Mcclatchy tribune

ISTANBUL — The death toll in southeastern Turkey climbed to at least 279 Monday, a day after a 7.2-magnitude earthquake devastated the region.

Although the death toll was slowly ratcheting upwards, Interior Minister Idris Naim Sahin said it was unlikely to reach the 1,000 deaths feared Sunday.

At least 1,300 people were injured in the province of Van, Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc said.

In the city of Ercis, which was worst hit by the quake, 970 buildings — or about a third of the total — collapsed, according to the government’s emergency committee.

More than 1,200 doctors and rescue workers from across the country were sent to the region. Heavy machinery was being used to help clear rubble and find those buried beneath, according to a German news agency dpa reporter in Ercis.

Cries for help could be heard from several buildings, volunteers said.

One 19-year-old man was rescued from a collapsed six-storey building after calling for help on his mobile

a federal agency that could work with private mediators to see if we could solve those problems and get them out of the courts. After he negotiated with the then-President Bill Clinton, he came up with the idea of a mediation agency and sent it to our foundation to manage. Most of our employment occurred as a result of that.

We have a core group of mediators, facilitators and experts who oversee energy, Native American affairs and climate change. We are currently involved in 70 environmental disputes around the U.S., and last year we did 90. We’re running a nationwide mediation agency on the environment in downtown Tucson. We also provide some of the most sought after scholarship programs in the country and built the most prestigious

phone. There were also reports of two women and two children, aged 3 and 5 years, being pulled alive from the rubble.

Two temporary hospitals were set up in tents.

“We won’t leave any citizen in the cold,” Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said early Monday in the provincial capital Van. However, as darkness fell in Ercis, protests were breaking out among families who said they had yet to be issued tents. Witnesses said there were thousands of people with no shelter.

Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Germany and Iran also sent help, despite Ankara’s announcement that it would deal with the crisis alone. The government accepted the help because the teams had already set off on Sunday, it said.

There were 10 strong aftershocks in the region lasting until midday Monday, according to the German Research Centre for Geosciences.

The region, which borders Iran, is mainly populated by Turkey’s Kurdish minority.

Experts from the Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute said Sunday that more than 1,000 people had likely been killed, given the magnitude of the quake.

But other experts said Monday that the number was probably lower than originally feared.

institution dealing with Native American affairs. The UA provided us with many resources and played a significant role in our expansion.

They can take great pride in that.

What do you think are some of the greatest successes of the U.S. Institute for Environmental Conflict Resolution?

We have settled disputes about the Barry M. Goldwater Air Force Range, over-flights at the DavisMonthan Air Force Base and we’ve been very involved here locally.

Our mediators were able to get a major agreement on protecting forests between cities and environmentalists in Northern Arizona.

Nationally, we settled disputes over the Everglades and were called to mediate among disagreeing federal agencies. Getting disputes out of the way is becoming an important part of governmental policy, and here in downtown Tucson, we are at the lead of it.

Javier Duran, associate professor of Spanish and border studies, speaks at the UA Poetry Center to welcome the new Confluence: Center for Creative Inquiry on Monday. The center seeks to combine various disciplines into a cohesive educational experience.

Confluence Center communes

By Stewart McClintic Daily Wildcat

The Confluence: Center for Creative Inquiry welcomed the community during a ceremony at the UA Poetry Center on Tuesday.

The new UA center acts as a cohesive unit that encompasses programs in the arts, humanities and social sciences.

The center “aims to be a world-class incubator for interdisciplinary research and creative activities that identify, address and work toward solutions pertaining to the current grand challenges” of humanity, according to its website. Javier Duran, the center’s director, said it is in essence a liberal arts program focused on research and creativity.

The center was established about a year ago, but the ceremony was its official announcement to the UA community about its existence on campus. He said the center hopes to be open soon, but is undergoing renovations in its new home on Helen Street and Fremont Avenue.

How do you think working with former Congressman Mo Udall as an aide and on his campaign helped you lead the foundation?

He was my mentor and guide in my professional life. He was wonderful, and he made a point every day to teach us something.

Working at his side was like getting a graduate degree each day. I came to the UA from a childhood in St. Louis, and because I wanted to move west, I took a graduate fellowship at the UA’s political science department. Three weeks after my arrival, I met my wife and fell in love. The graduate department won a fellowship for its top Ph.D. student, and the fellowship went to a student who couldn’t go. The department then asked me to go, and I was reluctant because I fell in love and loved Tucson. However, I saw it was a great opportunity, so I went. When I walked through Udall’s door, it changed my life.

Duran explained that the center aims to foster and promote growth of interdisciplinary studies and scholarly activities with an “outside of the box” approach for undergraduate students.

“Confluence has been spawned specifically to provide a common space, both literally and figuratively, where intuitively disprate endeavors might find congruence. Music and mathematics, dance and engineering,” said John Olsen, a regents’ professor in the School of Anthropology.

The center also provides a way for students to enroll in topics that would otherwise be divergent, and how those fields of studies may interact.

A notable feature of the center is its partnership with the Arizona Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies. Lauren Johnston, a junior studying ecology and evolutionary biology and editor in chief of the journal, said the center provides a space for students to do research and have a chance to show what kind of interdisciplinary study is being done at the UA.

Johnston said that she and her partner Emma Kleiner, a junior majoring in art history and history, “thought this up before Confluence came about as a way of highlighting interdisciplinary research that students are doing on campus that sometimes doesn’t always fit into say, the geography journal, or any of the number of journals that we publish on this campus.”

Johnston added that they currently have an open call for research papers for the journal. She said they can be submitted through the Confluence website until Jan. 15. They expect to have the first edition published by April 2012.

UA President Eugene Sander congratulated the administration of former President Robert Shelton for funding the center, and said its central mission fills an important niche in the social sciences.

“I think it was an excellent idea and I can tell you that I look forward to the long history of this center,” he said. “I think it will have a bright future here.”

Undeclared

this can be an issue.

Despite the fact that being undeclared can be stressful, many advisors note that choosing a major does not harness students into specific careers.

“Most bachelor’s degrees aren’t tied to careers, including business,” Potter said. “So it’s not a marriage to field that you’re stuck with.”

Soto-Delgadillo said advisors and programs can help undeclared majors make an educated decision about what major to declare. Some of these programs are “major exploration” services, which help pinpoint student’s interests to fields of study and Pizza with a Professional, which connects students to a panel of professionals who answer questions and provide information regarding career choices.

“They (undeclared students) are a fun population to work with,” she said.

“We (the center) walk them through the process of declaring a major.”

options in a timely manner, while it overwhelms others.

“I feel like I’m in a rush,” said Brittnay Levin, an undeclared freshman. “Everyone knows what they want to do, except for me.”

Levin said she came to the university undeclared because she was unsure about what career path to take. As a second semester freshman, however, she said she is leaning towards studying retailing and consumer sciences or family studies and human development because those are the majors that interest her most.

The biggest challenge about being undeclared, Potter said, is that many “in-demand” majors require a decision earlier than some students are ready. Some of these majors include engineering, business, retail, many sciences and anything in the arts, he said, and for students paying “huge tuition,”

Brother’s legacy sparks WillPower Club creates a clothing line to spread message of physical, mental strength

By Samantha Munsey Daily Wildcat

A new UA club launched a clothing line at the UofA Bookstore with the help of former UA athletes last week.

The club, WillPower, is a movement developed by civil engineering senior Sami Zarifi, who wants to use clothing line as a way to spread the message of pushing yourself to the limit both physically and mentally.

“Our kind of motto that we are going with at the UA is ‘not what you can do but what you will do,’” Zarifi said. “Basically what we want to iterate about WillPower is that it’s something that defines you, it’s your essence, and people sometimes disregard it because it is the one force that can push you past your natural limit.”

Zarifi created the club as way to show his support for cancer research after his brother, Will Zarifi, died of brain cancer in 2008.

“He never was upset or

complained or anything when he was sick,” Zarifi said. “It was all about staying positive and that inspired me.”

The clothing line includes items such as, shirts, tank tops and wristbands featuring both UA and WillPower logos. Proceeds will go to the UA Steele Children’s Research Center, part of the Diamond Children’s Medical Center at the University of Arizona Medical Center-University Campus. All of the clothing is sold exclusively at the bookstore.

The store sold out on its first clothing shipment during the launch on Thursday. Former UA basketball player Derrick Williams was also at the event helping to promote the clothing line.

“I think it went really well, people came up and we were able to tell them the inspiration behind the shirts and generate a lot of popularity from that,” said David Seroy, management information systems senior and member of WillPower. “Derrick Williams stopping by also helped bring a crowd of people.”

At the event, Williams signed shirts and took photos with people inside the store. He also posted

information about the clothing premiere on his Twitter account, getting athletes like Taj Gibson, a basketball player for the Chicago Bulls and former UA swimmer and Olympic medalist Amanda Beard to follow and do the same on their Twitter accounts.

“When Derrick came the hype really got going and people started seeing the clothing on campus,” Zarifi said. “Once people realize what WillPower is and the connection it has to inspire yourself, it going to get really popular and I think the next batch (of clothing) is going to be a big hit.”

For the beginning phases of the clothing line, the club wants to focus its brand to athletics and eventually expand to other aspects of student life. Jimmy Ware, a regional development senior and member of the WillPower said he thinks the club has the potential to not only turn into a tradition on campus but become a movement to other colleges as well.

Streaking is a prank, not a crime Michelle A. Monroe Daily Wildcat

T

he almost streaker at the Arizona-UCLA game is not a criminal. This country has truly gone off its rocker if a 22-year-old student wearing a costume and a speedo is charged with a felony.

If you haven’t seen the video, Jace Michael Lankow, a senior dressed like a referee, runs out on the field with four seconds left in the first half. He blows a whistle, tries to get the football from a real referee, and then tears off his pants and shirt. After being wiped out by a tackling police officer, Lankow is walked off the field, red-white speedo and all. Now he’s being charged with criminal impersonation, which according to the Arizona Daily Star, is a felony.

Really? Dressing up like a Pac-12 referee is laughable, not criminal. Who was hurt over this prank? No one. Four seconds left in the half and neither team was anywhere near an end zone.

Stopping play was nothing.

The worst part of this event was that a fight broke out almost at the same time on the field and interrupted his 15 minutes of fame. After a bench clearing fight where players punched and shoved each other, only two players were ejected from the game. But the streaker, who did no harm to anyone and just ran while tearing clothes off and blowing a whistle, he gets criminal charges.

Wow. Technically it can be dropped down to a misdemeanor based on Lankow’s history and if the crime was not a dangerous offense. But the point is this isn’t a crime, it’s a harmless prank.

As a senior, this takes me back to high school senior year when kids would get arrested for putting vegetables around campus just because it was after hours.

It’s hard to understand how anyone is allowed to have fun anymore. Lankow may also face disciplinary action from the UA, because he technically falsely misrepresented himself.

He told KVOA that if he ends up being expelled, he hopes his credits transfer and he’ll finish his college education elsewhere. If he gets expelled I’ll have lost faith in the humanity and sense of humor of our administration. He didn’t even get naked!

I understand that some sort of punishment must be given to the student as an example. So let’s take a shot at the liquor law punishment and send him to a non-nudity class, enroll him in Theater 100, give him community service and be done with it.

One of the reasons I chose to go to the UA is because of the streaker at the Arizona-Stanford game in 2007. Dimitri Tsakanikas ran the length of the field and was pantsed at the 5-yard line.

He made it to the end zone but the crowd was going wild the whole time. It was hilarious, it was a spectacle, and the crowd was having a great time.

No one should dare say that Tucson is full of bleeding-heart liberals, because apparently it’s full of uptight conservative who can’t appreciate a good streaking prank. Face it refs, you were fooled. Get over it and crack a smile.

As for Lankow, I hope to see him graduate in December. If he doesn’t, I hope someone streaks in his honor.

Presidential hopefuls look weak like 2004 Democrats in elections. That’s the reason why the 2010 election was so historic, as we saw “anti-incumbent fever.” If you don’t have good enough candidates, or at least a strong enough message, you can’t beat someone who’s already got the job.

online comments Kony attempt needs to be well thought-out

You have touched on so many realistic points about relationships. Thank you.

—Liana Skivasch

In response to “Stopping reign of evil men” (Oct. 19 issue):

Standards for out-of-state students actually higher

This is not the first time that the U.S. has sent military advisers to Uganda to help deal with Kony and the LRA. Bush did the same in 2008, and the resulting attack on Kony’s camp in the DR Congo was a complete failure because Kony and his men were tipped off and fled. And the Ugandan ground forces were two days away when the aerial strike happened.

If this time is going to be successful in the capture and/or killing of Kony, it must be done differently.

Interesting relationship article In response to “Convicts: cop-out on intimacy” (Oct. 20 issue): This concept is crazy. Love this article great insight about relationships and intimacy.

The Daily Wildcat editorial policy

Daily Wildcat staff editorials represent the official opinion of the Daily Wildcat staff, which is determined at staff editorial meetings.

Columns, cartoons, online comments and letters to the editors represent the opinion of their author and do not represent the opinion of the Daily Wildcat.

In response to “Low standards equal devalued degree” (Oct. 21 issue): Your article starts off with some good statistics, and really points out the enormous amount of resources wasted on individuals who shouldn’t be in school at the university level to begin with. That said, your logic about the increased acceptance rate of out-of-state students is inherently flawed and you never provide backup data for your claims about outof-state students.

Perhaps the school is receiving higherquality applicants from out of state (the minimum admission requirements are higher for out-of-state students), and wishes to admit a proportionately lower amount of in-state students who have less invested in their education and have lower admission standards that can trigger automatic admission.

—Ryan M.

Students ought to be more informed about ‘Occupy’ In response to “Occupy Tucson comes to campus, fails to connect with some students” (Oct. 21 issue): I’m surprised that so few students are aware of this global movement or perhaps the people who were interviewed don’t represent the larger university student population. I’m hopeful that more intelligent young university students are aware of the Occupy movement not only in the U.S. but worldwide because there are real world issues to discuss beyond what is offered in the textbook in their university classes. I’m optimistic that most of the students are curious enough to read the papers about current events and are up to date with political movements occurring in their own city, the nation and the world at large. Again, I applaud the young supporter although, again, I’m a bit taken back by the lack of any knowledge or intelligent opinion by a university student. Let’s hope that the larger student population is very aware and can

provide intelligent pros or cons as to why they do or don’t agree with the Occupy movement.

—Carla

The show only goes on for so long In response to “College athletes who finish their degree are those that should be idolized” (Oct. 18 issue): Thank you. I agree with your assessment, Michelle. It is far too often that these students dream of making “the show” without realizing that once “the show” is done with them, they will need to have another passion or skill that will sustain them financially in their later years. Have a plan B, people. Also, what happens if the student gets injured early in this professional career and is released? What skill does he/she have to fall back on for a job? I admire student athletes who make graduating a priority in their lives. As a parent, I really would want that for my child. To make “good” on our (mine and my child’s) mutual investment in her education. Thank you, Michelle.

The officer asked the man if he had been drinking alcohol and the man said yes, and that he was only 18 years old. The man had a flushed face, red, watery eyes, slurred speech and a heavy odor of intoxicants coming from his mouth. The man refused medical transportation to a hospital and was treated by Tucson Fire Department at the dorm. He asked the officer for a ride to his dorm, which he was already in. The man was cited and released for minor in possession of alcohol in body.

Q Why do Asian people get so red when they drink?

A. that you are referring to is the result of the absence of an

Blame it on acetaldehyde. The “Asian flush” or “Asian glow,”

enzyme, in some individuals, that breaks down alcohol’s chemical byproducts. The body eliminates alcohol (ethanol) in a series of steps.

First, ethanol gets broken down by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). Next, another enzyme called aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) metabolizes the organic chemical compound acetaldehyde. However, among individuals who are deficient in ALDH2, acetaldehyde doesn’t get broken down and instead accumulates in the body. The result is the characteristic red, flushed appearance on the face, as well as increased heart rate, nausea, and sometimes dizziness associated with the “Asian flush.”

Over half of UA students set a limit on the number drinks they will have before they go out. (Health & Wellness Survey, N=2,479)

The take home message for those who exhibit the “Asian flush” is that limiting alcohol use is probably a good idea given the risks that have been documented so far. If you choose to drink, the less alcohol you consume, the less acetaldehyde will accumulate. Setting a limit on the number of drinks you will have up front may also mitigate the unpleasantness of facial flushing.

Studies have shown that around 36% of East Asians, including individuals from Japan, China and Korea, exhibit these symptoms after alcohol use due to their genetic makeup. For individuals with the genes that render ALDH2 ineffective, drinking can make for an unpleasant experience – something that researchers have correlated with a reduced risk of alcohol dependence, since the reaction effectively discourages drinking. Another more troubling finding is the fact that individuals who exhibit flushing may be at higher risk for esophageal cancer, a rare but deadly form of the disease. A known carcinogen, acetaldehyde normally doesn’t pose a problem because it is converted to acetate, but for those who lack ALDH2, the rise in acetaldehyde is a concern since it leads to increased exposure over time.

Kish reviews video of brawl, agrees with Scott’s suspensions Punishments deplete defensive backfield

By Mike Schmitz DAILY WILDCAT

Arizona’s once-anemic defense made huge strides last Thursday by holding UCLA to 12 points. But the Wildcats will have to build on that momentum Saturday without four key defensive backs against one of the conference’s emerging quarterbacks in Washington’s Keith Price.

As a result of Thursday’s benchclearing brawl between the Wildcats and Bruins, Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott handed out one-game suspensions to starting cornerback Shaquille Richardson and starting nickelback Jourdon Grandon, while backup safety Mark Watley and backup cornerback Lyle Brown received half-game suspensions.

Six UCLA players were suspended for at least a half.

UA interim head coach Tim Kish was asked by the Pac-12 to review the tape, and he agreed with Scott’s decision to suspend the 10 players at hand.

“I was disappointed for both us and UCLA, to be honest with you.

As I mentioned to the team after the game and at halftime, discipline is the cornerstone of where we’re at right now, and that was a lack of discipline,” Kish said. “In my opinion, it was a little bit of a selfish reaction.

“We have to understand the bigger purposes of what’s best for the team,” Kish added. “It’s unfortunate. It’s in my opinion the right thing to do from the commissioner’s standpoint, and it’s something we’re going to have to deal with here.”

Arizona quarterbacks coach Frank Scelfo, who said fights like that were the norm during his junior college days, echoed Kish’s sentiment and said the incident was “bad for us, bad for UCLA; it’s bad for college football.”

BASKETBALL

Williams returns to Tucson Former Wildcat honored at Red-Blue Game, says he has high expectations for the team he left behind

By Zack Rosenblatt DAILY WILDCAT

Entering the Red-Blue Game two years ago, nobody really knew much about Derrick Williams.

Williams was ranked as the fourth-best prospect in head coach Sean Miller’s first recruiting haul by Scout.com, behind Kyryl Natyazhko, Solomon Hill and Kevin Parrom.

Things have changed a little bit.

“Very few players made more improvement or a bigger jump in 24 months than he did,” Miller said.

And boy, did he improve.

In what was supposed to be a time of rebuilding for Arizona basketball following the ugly departure of Hall of Fame head coach Lute Olson, Williams took Tucson by storm.

He won Pac-10 Player of the Year, led the Wildcats to the Pac-10 regular season title and an Elite Eight, and eventually was drafted No. 2 overall by the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Now, his success has come full circle, as Arizona honored Williams this weekend at the Red-Blue game by retiring his number and inducting him into the Ring of Honor alongside former Wildcat greats like Steve Kerr and Sean Elliott.

With other former Wildcats like Jason Terry and Andre Iguodala in attendance to see Williams receive this honor, it was a great feeling for him.

“It’s just amazing … with all those people up there,” Williams said. “All these guys coming back JT (Terry) and Andre and all these guys, it just makes the atmosphere that much better.”

The atmosphere he described at the McKale Center brought out a nostalgia that felt a little strange considering just a few months ago he was suiting up for Arizona himself.

“It brought back a lot (of memories). I was only here for two years but it seems like yesterday with the Washington game, the white-out game we had on ESPN, the Duke game and all the games we’ve had,” Williams said. “The fans are great. That’s what makes this place so special is the fans.”

Suns forward, former Wildcat Frye awaits end of NBA lockout

By Zack Rosenblatt DAILY WILDCAT

COLIN DARLAND / DAILY WILDCAT

Former Arizona forward Derrick Williams salutes the McKale Center crowd during the Wildcats’ Red-Blue scrimmage on Saturday.

For Miller, it was a little strange seeing Williams sitting on the bench as a spectator, but he thinks that his former star player made the right decision.

Miller said describing his feelings about seeing Williams was “bittersweet.”

“We are really proud of Derrick and I’m just really glad he was able to be here today.

Every coach likes to have a guy like him back, but it was the right decision for Derrick,” Miller said. “Derrick’s performance is why he left and he made a great decision.”

The question of whether or not Williams’ talents translate to the next level remains unanswered. At the moment, the NBA is still in a lockout wihout an end date. It could be a while before Williams finally suits up

alongside Kevin Love for the Timberwolves, but while he waits he is remaining prepared.

“I’m just working out every day and just trying to stay ready with this lockout. You never know when it can start it could be tomorrow and the season starts up,” Williams said. “And for me, especially my rookie season, I want to play my first game I’m looking forward to it, with all my family coming out and being there at the game.”

Despite the big hole he left inside the paint, Williams is expecting big things from his former team this year.

“I think this year’s team is really good,” Williams said. “I hope they do a lot better than we did last season. I want them to win it all.”

It took him four years, but when Channing Frye came back to Tucson this weekend for the Red-Blue Game, he couldn’t have been happier.

On Friday and Saturday night, he could be seen at the bars of Tucson alongside former Wildcats like Chase Budinger, Jordan Hill, Richard Jefferson and Andre Iguodala.

Frye loved his return to Tucson so much that he wished he could suit up for the Wildcats.

“I wanna come back,” Frye said.

“It feels great to be back in Tucson, man. Such great support. How could you not want to come back here?”

In his four years with the pro- Channing Frye gram, spanning from the 2001-02 season until 2005, Frye averaged 13.5 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game. In 2005, the New York Knicks picked him eighth overall, and he played there for two seasons before eventually being traded to the Portland Trail Blazers.

After spending two years in Portland, Frye made the choice to return to the state in 2009 when he signed with the Phoenix Suns. Now, Frye is starting to produce at the level he did when he played for the Wildcats.

Last year, Frye had his best season as a pro, producing career highs with 12.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and a block per game.

Frye attributes a lot of his success in recent years to playing alongside future Hall-of-Fame point guard Steve Nash.

“He’s just one of the best passers in the history of basketball. He’s just a great guy and a lot of fun to play with,” Frye said.

With an NBA lockout with no end in sight, it might be a while before Frye is able to get any more assists from Nash. But, he said the team is ready to go whenever the lockout ends.

“Everyone is kind of to themselves, and kinda just making sure that everyone is ready in case the season does start,” Frye said.

In the meantime, Frye is taking advantage of the free time that has come as a result of the lockout.

Frye said he will “just continue working out and continue staying in shape and use this opportunity to spend time here (in Tucson) and spend time with my family.”

Do you think you’ve ever lost one?

Yes (laughs).

What did you wear when you lost?

Gosh, I think I just had a plain toga. Just a bed sheet, it even had a lion on it.

A bed sheet? Oh, so like in “Animal House”?

A bit like that, yeah. Except way more lame than “Animal House.”

You didn’t have motorcycles driving up the staircases?

No, not that I can remember.

There should’ve been. Don’t you agree?

(Laughs) Yeah, that would’ve been awesome. I don’t think there was a staircase.

If you could be one of the animals from “Animal House” for Halloween, which one would you be?

Does John Belushi count as an animal?

Oh, totally. He’s pretty much the animal of the movie.

Yup, I’d be him.

fast facts • Trick-or-treating originated in the Middle Ages, when people would beg for soul cakes on All Souls Day in return for praying for the dead.

• When Halloween became popular in the United States, it was more common to pull pranks on people than to dress up and collect candy.

FOOTBALL NOTES

Foles still growing for Wildcats

By Dan Kohler DAILY WILDCAT

As Nick Foles continues through his final season at the helm of the Arizona offense, there’s one more thing he can write on his resume: play caller.

The Wildcats managed to bombard 48 points on top of the visiting UCLA Bruins last Thursday, and part of that was predicated on Foles’ ability to call plays himself. “He’s comfortable,� Arizona quarterbacks coach Frank Scelfo said. “Hopefully, each week we can give him more and more ownership.

I thought he did a great job. We practiced the things he wanted to practice, and I think it allowed us to get out the gate quicker.� “I thought the first half was probably as good a half as he’s played since I’ve been here.�

Foles’ numbers speak for themselves; he’s thrown for 2,546 yards, good enough for fourth in the nation, and 18 touchdowns so far this season.

However, it is his ability as a leader for the young Arizona team, and the initiative he has for taking charge of the offense, which is what coaches have noticed most. “Nick’s been kind of wanting to (take charge),� Scelfo said. “(He’ll say) ‘Here’s some stuff I want to do that I think can help us.’ � “Nick’s a smart guy,� Scelfo added. “When you have players like him who don’t come along very often, you got to take advantage of them while you’ve got them and you’ve got to appreciate them while you’ve got him.�

GORDON BATES / DAILY WILDCAT

Streaker Jace Lankow is tackled on the field by a police officer during Arizona’s 48-12 victory against UCLA at Arizona Stadium on Thursday. UA quarterbacks coach Frank Scelfo said he was entertained by Lankow, who impersonated a football referee.

Scelfo fan of UA streaker

By Mike Schmitz DAILY WILDCAT

Most collegiate coaches would have given a politically correct comment regarding Thursday night’s streaker and referee impersonator Jace Michael Lankow.

They would call it immature, classless and a distraction that kept officials from handling the real task at hand — the benches-clearing brawl between the Wildcats and Bruins.

SUSPENSIONS

FROM PAGE 6

corner Derrick Rainey is listed as the co-starter with Johnson.

The Wildcats will also need another big game from freshman Tra’Mayne Bondurant, who led the team with eight tackles against UCLA. With Grandon out for the game and Watley out for the first half, Bondurant will have another chance to shine at nickel.

If he’s unsuccessful against a Husky offense that ranks third in the Pac-12 in points per game, with 34.7, the Wildcats will have to run more base defense, meaning linebacker Hank Hobson will most

But not UA quarterbacks coach Frank Scelfo. “I thought it was awesome,�

Scelfo said candidly. “Again, you don’t need that, but it made for great entertainment. I thought the guy was good.�

Scelfo, who recalled the streaking fad that blew up during his college days in the 70s and 80s, applauded Lankow’s idea to run onto the field in referee attire blowing his whistle and waiving his hands. But the

likely be the beneficiary of more snaps.

Kish also said there’s a possibility that he moves a few offensive players to the defensive side, but they would only be used in “emergency situations.� He wouldn’t disclose which players would make the move.

Regardless of who makes the switch, the suspensions are finalized and the Wildcats have to work with who’s available as they aim to run the table and do the unthinkable by making a fourth consecutive bowl game. “It could have been prevented, maybe, maybe not, but it is what it is and we’ve got to move forward,�

Kish said.

52-year-old coach did find one flaw in Lankow’s plan — his short pants. “He had the short pants on, that’s the only thing that confused me,�

Scelfo said. “I saw the whistle blowing and his hands waving and I thought, ‘why does this guy have short pants on?’ and then everything happened. I laughed, that was good.�

Although Scelfo found it entertaining, Lankow potentially faces up to 1.5 years in jail for criminal impersonation.

Kish on the fight: • “None of those six guys that were out there presently, and that includes everyone but Mark Watley, from our suspension side, were jawing back and forth.â€? • “I ended up talking to the lawyer that represents the commissioner’s office. What I could see and what they had, they had available nine hours of tape. They viewed nine hours of tape.â€? • “They had all the ESPN feeds so they could look at all the different angles. I didn’t have all that but I saw what they saw for the most part so I agreed with them.â€?

Defense rewinding the clock In order to combat the Bruins’ pistol offense, Arizona interim head coach and defensive coordinator Tim Kish dug into the Wildcats defensive archives and decided to use the “Desert Swarm� doubleeagle flex defensive package that the Wildcats utilized under former

coach Dick Tomey.

Essentially, the package is a derivative of the traditional 4-3 defensive scheme, where the team still plays four down lineman, but two will line up a yard behind the line of scrimmage with the goal being to funnel the play toward the middle of the field.

While it was successful against UCLA, it might be tough to use it against different offensive sets. “It was a good byproduct of the offense that we saw with UCLA,�

Kish said. “How it fits right now, we just have to kind of wait and see, and see if that’s really in our plans down the road. “We certainly aren’t going to shelve it for the rest of the year.�

Bondurant breaks out Arizona freshman defensive back Tra’Mayne Bondurant took over the rover position in the flex defense and showed his capabilities recording eight tackles for the Wildcats. “The rover position in the flex defense, that’s were the ball goes,�

Kish said. “He did a heck of a job for just a week’s worth of practice and understanding what was expected of him at that position.�

Bonano’s efforts didn’t go unnoticed Arizona place kicker John Bonano was named the Pac-12 Special Teams Player of the Week after his perfect outing against UCLA on Thursday.

Along with his two made field goals, the longest being from 41 yards, a season high for the Wildcats, he also managed to hit all six of his extra points.

Coming into Thursday’s game the Wildcats were 2-of-6 so far this season on field goal attempts and had also been unsuccessful on five extra point tries.

Despite being originally third on the Wildcat depth chart, Bonano should now be the starter for the rest of the season.
