Former Russian prime minister speaks Pro-life rally By JAMES HERRIOTT The Chronicle
The last 10 years have shown that the prime ministry ofRussia may not be the most secure job for promising young academics and politicians. Yegor Gaidar, after serving a short stint as prime minister in 1991 and 1992 and creating a minority political party, embarked on a speaking tour to promote his book, Days of Defeat and Victory. Last week, he delivered the Terry Sanford Distinguished Lecture in a crowded Fleishman Commons and participated in Friday’s roundtable discussion with John Odling-Smee of the International Monetary Fund and Marcelo Solowsky, the chief economist for Europe and Asia for the World Bank. About 75 students and professors attended the discussion.

Roe vs. Wade The first annual campus protest marked the 27th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion. By JAIME LEVY The Chronicle
A group of 40 students shivered on the main quad Friday afternoon as they listened to the story of Loretta Thompson, vice president and communications director for North Carolina Right to Life. Called to mark the 27th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, the solemn rally—sponsored by Duke Students for Life—focused on a Christian argument against abortion: “Every life is made by God and every life is precious...,” Thompson said. “It doesn’t matter the color of your skin, it doesn’t matter if you have a disability. God was there when you were conceived.” In her speech, Thompson shared her own story to highlight the painful way many young women are drawn to abortion. When she found out she was pregnant at age 19, she said she could not go

Russia’s progress in Grozny slows Rebel forces have managed to hold off advancing troops in the Chechen capital When Russian forces began their latest assault on Grozny early last week, they boasted that they would make short work of the militants in the city. But the Russian blitz has begun to stall. Russian gains are measured in yards. The Russian military’s most important accomplishment Sunday was not the seizure of a new building or compound, but the recovery of the body of Maj. Gen. Mikhail Malofeyev, one of the commanders of the Grozny operation, who vanished in the fighting Tuesday. Another commander, of the Interior
By MICHAEL GORDON N.Y. Times News Service
KHANKALA, Russia Sunday’s flag-raising ceremony in northwest Grozny was supposed to be a madefor-television event that would illustrate the progress Russian forces have made in taking back the tattered ruins that are the Chechen capital. But when a group of reporters and photographers arrived at the outskirts of the city, they were abruptly turned away. Even the Russian-occupied areas of Grozny were filled with rebel snipers, a military press officer explained.
Ministry troops who have been doing the main fighting in the
streets of Grozny, has been replaced. Senior Russian officers have voiced fears that they have become mired into a war of attrition. “Many units which I know in the defense and interior forces are exGen. Arkady hausted,” Lt. Baskayev, a senior Interior Ministry commander in the Moscow region, told a Russian radio station Sunday. “They must be supported by new forces, by new equipment, by new arms.”

Time Warner, EMI close music merger By ANDREW POLLACK with ANDREW SORKIN N.Y. Times News Service
Time Warner Inc. plans to acquire control of the music business of the EMI Group and merge it with Warner Music, creating what could become the world's largest record company, officials close to the negotiations said yesterday. The deal, which is expected to be announced today in London, would shrink the oligopoly of music companies that dominate the world record business from five to four. And coming two weeks after Time Warner agreed to be acquired by America Online, the music merger would create a force to be reckoned with in the fledgling business of distributing music on the Internet. “It certainly underscores the premise of the AOLTime Warner merger and adds more sustenance to that
deal,” Jill Krutick, an analyst with Salomon Smith Bar ney, said yesterday. The merged music company, to be known as Warner EMI Music, would sell about one offour records in the United States and also have a vast international presence. EMI, whose roster of artists includes the Rolling Stones, the Spice Girls and Robbie Williams, has been strongest in Europe and some other international markets like Japan. Time Warner’s Warner Music, which has acts that include Madonna, Eric Clapton and Jewel, has been strongest in the United States. But its market share has plummeted in recent years. Time Warner and EMI Group would each own 50 percent of Warner EMI Music. But Time Warner would have a slight majority on the board of directors and ulSee MERGER on page 5 k

Blood drive attempts to exploit Duke-UNC rivalry
The Red Cross blood drive pits the basketball rivals against each other to build up the state’s blood supply By ALISON HADDOCK
that had been depleted by the severe flu season and the lull in donations during the holiday season. In response, Duke and UNC have revived an old ACC tradition to fill the need in the area. “Every year, hospitals in the Durham region use more than 100,000 pints of blood,” explained Kirsten Kruhm, director of blood services for the North Carolina chapter of the American Red Cross. With each school aiming to collect at least 800 pints during the 50-day period, the competition can make a significant impact on the local community. “Raising the general awareness and realizing the need for donors is a part of what makes this a win-win situation,” Kruhm said. Students have planned extensively for this event, working out all the details of recruiting donors, placing advertising and gaining sponsorships.
The Chronicle
Putting the long-standing Tobacco Road rivalry to good use, the Duke Red Cross Club and a coalition of student leaders from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have united to coordinate a blood drive competition between the two schools. Every pint donated by students between early January and the March 4 Duke-UNC basketball game is being tallied in the “Battle of the Blood” —the blood drive
face-off between the long-time rivals.
Duke is ahead so far, with 81 pints as to UNC’s 52. Tm planning on this becoming a 15-year tradition, at least,” said Trinity junior Matthew Baugh, co-president

Russian troops face Chechen rebels on several fronts RUSSIA from page 2 Lying on the eastern outskirts of Grozny, Khankala is a major base for the Russian assault on Grozny. It is an unsightly panorama of rusty railroad cars, a military airstrip and makeshift command posts, erected out of concrete piles and camouflage nets. Russian artillery here send 122 mm shells flying toward the city, and attack helicopters hover overhead. The Staropromyslovsky district of Grozny is just a short helicopter ride away. The district extends like a finger toward the northwest. It was the first Grozny district the Russians attacked when they began their assault on Grozny Dec. 25, and they claim to have had it under control since late December. Russian forces even established a local militia office there in the beginning of January, as they sought to bring the situation back to normal. The decision to raise Russia’s tricolor in Staro-
promyslovsky was intended as a symbolic affirmation of Russian progress. It came after a difficult week for the Russian side. First, Malofeyev disappeared, with the rebels declaring that he had been kidnapped. But Sunday, Lt. Gen. Gennady Troshev, the deputy commander of Russian forces in the North Caucasus, said that the general’s body had been recovered in a no-man’s land and that Russian artillery had been used to prevent the rebels from seizing it. Territory that the Russians had previously claimed to seize has also become the scene of bitter fightipg. Russian officers boasted that they controlled Minutka Square in central Grozny several days ago, only to acknowledge Sunday that it was still the object of fierce firefights. Compounding the Russian military’s problems, the rebels staged a surprise counterattack on soldiers in

EMI Group would continue as a company with its own stock trading on the London Stock Exchange. Its operations would consist of its 50 percent interest in the new jointrecord venture, plus some other business that include a stake in the music retailer HMV. Roger Ames, the chief executive of Warner Music, would be chief executive of the new venture, which is to be based in New York. Ken Berry, who heads EMI Records, would be chief operating officer. EMI Group’s chair, Eric Nicoli, and Time Warner’s president, Richard Parsons, would be co-chairs, the people close to the transaction said.
Talks about the merger have been underway since August, well before the recent announcement of the $165 billion merger of Time Warner and America Online. One person close to the negotiations said that America Online was not told of the EMI talks until after it and Time Warner had reached their basic merger agreement. But Steve Case, the chair of America Online, signed off on the music deal, which would make even more musical content available for AOL to distribute over the Internet, this person said.

On another front, fighting rages in the Chechen highlands as rebels in the Argun gorge try to fight their way back to Grozny. Given the political stakes involved for acting President Vladimir Putin and the firepower Russia has at its disposal, it seems virtually certain that Russian forces will eventually retake the city. The question is at what cost to the troops, to the Kremlin’s prestige and to the thousands of civilians who live in the capital. Although Russian generals have said their goal is to win the war before the March 26 presidential elections, Putin said in an interview broadcast on RTR television Sunday that the end of the war in Chechnya “will not be linked to any date in the political calendar in Russia.”

University, the $1.5 million renova tions began.
Walltown’s revitalization began
in 1994, when the Self-Help Credit Union, a Durham-based organization that helps people in need of affordable housing, began talking with city officials. The area’s church leaders began
meeting regularly to talk about what they, too, could do to help. “God has blessed this community,” said Walltown resident Tammi Hodge-Hyman, “There’s going to be a major change here.” At about the same time, the University began taking interest in its neighbors’ struggles. Keohane helped make DukeDurham relations a top priority and, several years after she arrived in 1994, the University began its neighborhood partnership initiative. As part of the effort, Duke gave Self-Help Credit Union $2 million to purchase and rebuild 30 Walltown homes. Meanwhile, Pastor Brooks’ congregation at St. James had grown so large that he started looking for new space for his members. One of the larger buildings in the area was the empty Walltown school on West Club Boulevard. “When we arrived, 140 windows Were knocked out of the building and five homeless people were living there,” Brooks said. “There were even some dead animals. It was gross.”

REV. ROBERT DANIELS spoke at the center’s dedication and service of celebration. The center was built with lots of sweat, hard work, financial support from the University and old-fashioned grass-roots leadership.
The city had long been trying to figure out what to do with the abandoned school, and when Brooks proposed that the site be rebuilt as a church and a community center, the city readily agreed.
“Seeing the community come together as it has gives great faith that we can make changes,” Tennyson said. “I believe [the city! can be part of the solution.” With the financial support of the

We can be somebody.” Even the younger members of the community can see the positive changes being made around them. One nine-year-old girl used the computer lab for the first time yesterday. “It was good,” she said, “I did Reader Rabbit for the first time and I even played solitaire.” “We’re very honored by this,” said Keohane, whose son lives in Walltown. “We look forward to working together in future years, to future partnerships, to building future generations. Thank you and God bless,” she added. Brooks closed the dedication ceremony with a heartfelt remark: “They told us we couldn’t do it,” he said. “They told us we wouldn’t last, They told us we’d fail.

Russian politician approves of Putin
GAIDAR from page I feels that his country’s political future is in good hands with President Vladimir Putin. “[At first,] we all thought Yeltsin had lost any Gaidar said of the former presibrains he had left,” Putin of as successor. He added that choice dent’s Yeltsin was such a good politician because, “We can’t tell whether he is being foolish or whether he is having a gut feeling.” Gaidar said Yeltsin did choose well, as Putin is a strong leader with “generally modern and sensible ideas.” Gaidar was, however, less enchanted by Putin’s move to closer ties with the Communist Party, calling the decision “very pragmatic, very easy to understand and a terrible political mistake.” Putin, Gaidar emphasized, is still an unknown, who will soon understand that “there are enormous pressures for a newcomer to listen to the advice [to close the economy.]” During the lecture, Gaidar briefly mentioned a few of the changes and improvements he hoped would be implemented after the March 26 presidential election. He wanted lower marginal tax rates, better property rights protection and less dependence on the federal government. He elaborated on these issues at the round-table discussion Friday. Gaidar explained that property rights must be more clearly defined in a former communist country. “In a regular market economy... you can rely on traditions,” he said. A lack of traditions is also a problem in the banking sector, Gaidar said during the panel discussion. “Tradition is bad and confidence is low,” he said. “[Reforms] will not give you serious results unless you go one step further and have full liberalization.” He pointed out the lack of trust within the Russian banking system. For example, there is a waiting list to open accounts at the Moscow branch of the Dutch ABN Amro bank which charges, not pays, its customers interest.
Odling-Smee, the IMF representative, mostly agreed with Gaidar, but warned against over-cozy links between the struggling energy sector and the government. Solowsky provided few answers to the political and economic questions in Russia, but highlighted the fact that more thought was needed in answering his question, “What are the things we can do in Russia to help the Duma go [in] the right directions?”

on fire!
A blazing electrical fire claimed Trinity senior Edward Dixon’s 1991 Jeep Grand Cherokee Friday night, drawing a crowd of about 50 onlookers. At about 9:30 pm, Dixon parked his car, ironically, in the fire lane near the corner of Wannamaker and Towerview drives.About 15 minutes later, the car caught fire and someone called the police, said Duke University Police Department Officer Marvin Riggs. Engines from the Durham Fire Department arrived shortly, and it took about 15 minutes to put out the fire. As Dixon, left, looked on and tried to offer his keys, firefighters broke open a front window and used a crowbar to open the hood. PHOTO BY GREG PESSIN/THE CHRONICLE

A banner of racism
The
rebel flag now flying over South Carolina’s state capitol shouts in no uncertain terms that racism still pervades the state and its political processes. The flag is one of the few remaining symbols of Southern aggression. To some, it represents a glorious heritage ofregional pride, but this heritage cannot be separated from the hateful system of slavery it perpetuated. The rebel flag symbolizes this hatred not only to the 30 percent of the state’s population that is black, but also to a large percentage of its white residents, as evidenced both by polls and by the multiracial group of 46,000 protesters outside the capitol building on Martin Luther King Jr. Day—which is still not recognized by the state. The flag must come down, and with an intransigent state legislature, right-minded citizens must resort to activism. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People’s boycott against the state’s major industry—tourism—will hit the pockets of the state’s wealthiest and most influential businesspeople, whose pleas to lower the flag and threats of future campaign support will pry open legislative ears. The real success of this activism, though, will be the NAACP’s renaissance as a viable political organization capable of tackling substantive racial and political issues. After years of internal chaos and relative inefficacy, the group can use the symbolic victory of pulling down the flag to gather the money, support and power it needs to break down the still-high barriers to full minority political participation. If successful, the NAACP will also have the clout to attack symbols of oppression in other states, such as Georgia’s flag. The South Carolina Legislature’s continued refusal to consider removing the flag reveals, more than anything else, the failure of South Carolina’s political processes to represent its people adequately. The state’s judges have consistently ruled against equal employment programs, affirmative action and congressional redistricting, just a few examples of the failures so vividly represented by this most recent controversy. In less than four months, this important boycott will butt heads with Duke’s hallowed post-finals tradition —going to Myrtle Beach. If the Confederate flag is still flying in Columbia on May 7, Duke students face a clear choice: supporting the boycott by finding a new beach retreat or following tradition and endorsing the flag. Traveling to Myrtle would demonstrate irreverence and disregard for the NAACP and all the important racial and political issues it continues to fight. Student solidarity on this issue could mean another several hundred thousand dollars of lost state revenue for the steadily growing boycott. Relaxing and partying together is important, and the Interfraternity Council, the Panhellenic Council and the National Panhellenic Council should work together to find an alternate location But students can have the best of both worlds —a clear conscience and a week at Myrtle Beach. By calling state legislators, organizing local protests and telephoning leaders of their organizations at nearby campuses to join the boycott, Duke students can and should help lower the Confederate flag.

Flawed evidence fails When politics is mixed with justice, the results are ugly. The political storm surrounding Mumia Abu-Jamal threatens to take the life of a man who is potentially innocent in the killing of police officer Daniel Faulkner. Raymond Keeler presents the “facts” against AbuJamal, facts revealed to be half-truths. No less than four eyewitnesses reported seeing someone else flee the scene before police arrived. The police
never followed this lead. Instead, they intimidated witnesses into testifying against Abu-Jamal. Two prostitutes were offered protection in exchange for their testimony. One later recanted her earlier testimony, and she was arrested as she stepped off of the witness stand. An independent ballistics expert testified that the police’s tests were incomplete; they did not even check whether Abu-Jamal’s gun

had been fired after arriving
at the crime scene. The medical examiner who removed the bullet from Faulkner’s body judged it to be of a different caliber than AbuJamal’s gun. Later, the bullet mysteriously disappeared from a police vault. The witnesses at the hospital who allegedly heard AbuJamal’s confession—both friends of Officer Faulkner—simply forgot to mention this “confession” until two months after the shooting. The doctors who treated Abu-Jamal heard no confession, and another officer who stayed with AbuJamal until the doctors started treating him noted in his report that “[dluring this time the negro male made no statements.” The police sent this officer “on vacation” during Abu-Jamal’s trial. In 1979, just two years before the murder, the United States Justice Department filed an unprecedented suit against Philadelphia officials,
-
charging them with “condoning a pattern and practice of pervasive brutality by police.” Even supposing AbuJamal’s guilt, does the death penalty apply? If he killed Officer Faulkner after coincidentally coming upon Faulkner beating his brother on the side of the road, was it premeditated or in cold blood? The motivation for the death penalty is probably more closely tied to the fact that the prosecution read extensively from Abu-Jamal’s early revolutionary writings during the sentencing phase. As Americans, we do not kill a citizen for his beliefs. Or do we? Amnesty International invites all opposed to political executions to join us in fighting for justice for Mumia Abu-Jamal. Benjamin

Ticketing process shortchanges graduate students An advertisement in your newspaper advised all students to sign up for the upcoming ACC basketball
tournament ticket lottery, which is open to all Duke undergraduates—but only those graduate students who purchased season tickets to men’s basketball. More than 1,300 of us vied for the 600 season passes and many, like me, didn’t win the lottery. Without the group system, I wouldn’t have seen a game all year, and now I’m automatically shut out of the
tournament.
But a glance at the graduate student section reveals equally fervent foot stomping, yelling and blue wigs—many of us are hardcore fans.
Why does the Duke system
automatically classify graduate and professional students as second-rate fans? Similarly, graduate students are relegated to sit in one small section of the bleachers, behind the basket—regardless ofhow early we arrive. My sore body suggests that the section cannot reasonably seat 600 people, yet each season passholder pays $l5O for this buttcramp. Instead of permitting graduate students to commingle with the undergraduates—and allowing the early birds to get the best spots—we’re segregated to one section. I can’t imagine why this must be. I remember well the fetid smell of the port-o-potties
and the faint sound of whistling in my ears days after the two-night campout. I also remember the “No” next to my name that Sunday morning. Perhaps we do have it a bit easier—but our odds are much, much lower. And now, there is no chance for me to see the tournament. Again, I can’t imagine why this must be. Wouldn’t it be more fair for the tournament lottery to include all the undergraduates who ever lined up and all the graduate students who camped out? Perhaps we would sacrifice this $l5O “privilege” for equal treatment. Keridana Chez Law ’O2, Graduate School ’O2
On the record Because the rivalry between the two schools is so strong, we feel that people will be motivat ed to donate blood, because of the opportunity to beat Duke. Lindsey Ligett, chair of the Public Service Committee of the executive branch ofstudent government at the University ofNorth Carolina at Chapel Hill (see story, page 3)

‘No longer a freshman’: Williams shows maturity in victory
WINSTON-SALEM To say that the Blue Devil offense struggled throughout the first half vs. Wake Forest would be an understatement. Duke shot just 35 percent from the field and managed a meager two-point lead at the break, thanks mainly to solid shooting from the freethrow line.
Brian Kane Game Commentary The second half, however, was a different story altogether. Why? The turnaround can be largely credited to the play of Jason Williams, who ran Duke’s offense to near perfection for the final 20 minutes. While the first half saw Wake Forest’s zone defense force Duke into quick longrange jump shots, the second half was characterized by Blue Devil shooters taking relaxed, medium-range jumpers at will. Williams led the second-half surge despite early foul trouble. The freshman point guard, who picked up his second foul with more than 15 minutes remaining in the opening half, played a smart game on the defensive end that allowed him to log 32 minutes in the contest. “Maybe the best thing he did today was learn to play with two fouls and not get his third,” Krzyzewski said. “We’re going to show confidence in him to do that, but you can’t if he doesn’t do it. So, it’s up to the kid, and the kid’s getting better.” Entering the game, it would seem that Demon Deacon star Robert O’Kelley would be the one putting on the point guard dinic. Instead, he probably picked up a few pointers. Frustrated by Duke’s defense,
O’Kelley launched many ill-advised threepoint attempts and forced the ball to the basket when there was no opening. In contrast, Williams kept his composure throughout the contest and took what the defense gave him. He connected on eight of his 10 field goal attempts—including a 3-for-5 day behind the arc—for a game-high 19 points. “In the last four [conference games], he

He penetrated when the defense provided a crease, but he was also content to take a medium-range jump shot or three-pointer, Jason played a heck of a game, junior Shane Battier said. “He made some great decisions. I think he s starting to see that hes one of the best point guards in the league. Til take him over anyone in this league.” Williams led the fast break, especially in the second half, with John Stocktonlike precision. Rather than trying to make the spectacular play and risk a charge or turnover, he slowed the ball down or pulled up for an open jump shot, “Williams had an amazing second JASON WILLIAMS shoots an outside jumper.

Titans, Rams win conference titles, set to meet in Super Bowl
From wire reports
Fia. The oncemmfmmm Jacksonville, homeless Tennessee Titans never felt
fliiliiuSHßjy
so cozy on the road. And they’re not
done traveling yet Next stop: Super Bowl XXXIV in Atlanta, where they’ll face the St. Louis Rams. America’s wandering waifs, who have played in four stadiums in three cities in four seasons, upset the Jacksonville Jaguars 33-14 Sunday behind the scrambling of Steve McNair and a defense that forced six turnovers. The Titans trailed 14-10 at the half but scored 16 points in about four minutes in the third quarter to pull away. It’s the first Super Bowl trip ever for the franchise that began in the old AFL in 1960. “It’s about time,” said owner Bud Adams, who founded the franchise in Houston then moved it after
the 1995 season when he couldn’t get money for a new stadium. “I’m getting pretty old. I didn’t want to go to the Super Bowl in a wheelchair.” McNair almost had to use a wheelchair before the game. He spent much ofthe week wearing a boot to protect an injured toe and hid the pain as well as he could. “At one point during the week, he couldn't even touch his toe without it killing him,” tight end Frank Wycheck said. “For him to go out and have the day he did is just unbelievable. He’s a leader who leads by example and we follow him.” Rams 11, Buccaneers 6 The St. Louis Rams’ Midwest Express offense, derailed all game, came alive just in time. Kurt Warner threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to Ricky Proehl with 4:44 remaining Sunday, lifting the mistake-prone Rams to an 11-6 victory over the Tampa Bay
Buccaneers in the NFC Championship Game. The Rams rode their unheralded defense and Warner’s late heroics all the way to the Super Bowl.
Tampa’s gallant defensive effort wasn’t enough because backup comerback Brian Kelly couldn't stay with Proehl down the left sideline on the long thirddown pass. Proehl, the Rams’ No. 4 wide receiver, leaped to haul in his first touchdown of the season. The winning score was set up when Bucs rookie quarterback Shaun King was picked off by another rookie, comerback Dre’ Bly, at midfield. Bly brought the ball to the Tampa Bay 47 and the league’s highest-scoring offense (526 points during the season, 49 in last week’s playoff victory over Minnesota) finally got into the endzone. But the Rams had to survive a last-ditch march on which King was sacked twice, but still led the Bucs to the St. Louis 22.

As the men’s WINSTON-SALEM basketball team exited the Dean Smith Center Feb. 5, 1998, the Blue Devils’ heads were down as they wondered how they’d just fallen victim to a 24-point thrashing at the hands of the Tar Heels. Amazingly, three of this year’s Blue Devil regulars were merely juniors in high school when that loss occurred. They may have watched the game on television or read about it in the newspaper. But the last 28 times the Blue Devils’ players have taken the court for a regular-season ACC contest, their heads have been held high when leaving the court. Only Chris Carrawell and Shane Battier, have played in all 28 games of “the streak.” And so, coach Mike Krzyzewski was proud ofhis team’s victory, but he put things in perspective. “It’s certainly a terrific thing,” the coach said. “We really have never talked about it with this team, just because this team—except for Carrawell—they’re not going to relate to that. They have a hard time relating back to [last week’s game againstl Florida State.” While it was nothing spectacular Saturday, the Blue Devils continued what has become a regular occurrence—finding away to win in the conference. The Demon Deacons gave Duke everything it wanted, and more, but the Blue Devils managed to pull away late in the second half for the 75-61 victory. There was no fanfare, no celebra-

tion. The small band of “Crazies” in attendance chanted “28! 28!” but that was about it. Wake Forest coach Dave Odom was not at all surprised by this reaction. “Fm sure they will make light of [the streak] at this moment,” he said. “But I can tell you that as an opposing coach, it’s quite an achievement. In this league, to do what their coaching staff has done and the way their players have handled it [is] truly remarkable.” The ability of the Blue Devils to win despite the complete reshuffling of players in the offseason is quite impressive. Carrawell and Battier combined for a dismal 6-of-18 shooting from the field Saturday afternoon, but a freshman, Jason Williams, rarely missed en route to a 19-point effort. The total team effort—five players scored in double figures—has characterized the Blue Devil program throughout its 1,600 wins and, in particular, over the last 23 months of winning in the conference. “We’ve had guys here who really care about carrying on the Duke tradition,” Battier said, “especially this year with the veterans.... That’s what Duke’s all about—excellence.” Being that the majority of the Duke team was still in high school for the streak, here are some numbers that display just how dominating the Blue Devils have been since that tough loss ,

The record was previously held by N.C. State, which won 27 straight games from 1972-75 behind superstar David Thompson. The fact that the conference win streak had held up for 25 years makes the Blue Devils’ accomplishment seem that much more impressive.
While the streak is nice for sportswriters and enthusiasts to marvel at, this year’s Duke squad is most concerned with this year. “We stand alone,” Carrawell said. “It’s an honor. There have been some great teams in the past. But we want to keep it going.... I don’t care about streaks, I care about winning. That’s the streak I care about.”

“[Battler’s three] was as big a bucket as there was
in the ballgameKrzyzewski said. The Demon Deacons had one last run in them, but Duke was up to the challenge. After Wake Forest trimmed the deficit to 56-50 with 6:15 remaining, the Blue Devils answered with a 10-2 run to put the game away for good. Jason Williams, who connected on 8-of-10 shots from the field for 19 points, started the run with a deep three-point basket from the corner, extending Duke’s advantage to nine. Nate James scored the next five points for Duke, including a three-point play on a fast break layup. The spurt was capped off when Battier found Mike Dunleavy on a back door cut for a reverse lay-in. This basket put the Blue Devils up 66-52 and turned the final 3:52 into a free-throw shooting contest. The Demon Deacons, led by Robert O’Kelley, opened the game with a flurry, scoring the first seven points of the contest. O’Kelley accounted for six of Wake’s first nine points, before the Blue Devil defense clamped
down on the Deacons’ offensive star. O’Kelley connected on a baseline floater five minutes into the first half, giving Wake Forest a 13-8 lead. At this point, the combination of Williams and Chris Carrawell took over to shut down the junior point guard. O’Kelley did not score another point until 5:25 into the second half, ending the day a dismal 7-for-18 from the field. While Wake Forest grabbed 21 offensive rebounds, it was unable to turn these second chances into points. The Duke interior defense can be blamed for much of the Deacon struggles, as it rejected eight Wake Forest shots on the day, led by Battler’s four. On the offensive end of the floor, Duke displayed a balanced attack that saw all five starters reach double figures. As the Wake Forest shooting numbers went straight downhill in the second half, the Blue Devil percentage moved the exact opposite direction, as Duke posted a 63 percent shooting percentage for the last 20 minutes. “The five guys in double figures is indicative of how we’ve played the entire year,” Krzyzewski said. “That’s been the strength of our team—the versatility and the matchups we can create by subbing just one guy.”

ACC Notebook Montgomery catches TD in Hula Bowl: Duke wide receiver Scottie Montgomery represented the Blue Devils at Saturday’s Hula Bowl,
an annual showdown between college all-stars.
Montgomery, playing for the South team, caught a 29-yard touchdown pass from West Virginia’s Mark Bulger early in the third quarter to give the South a 28-7 lead. The North rallied, however, and the game ended in a 28-28 tie. Teasley returns to UNC: Junior point guard Nikki Teasley, who has been on a leave ofabsence from the North Carolina women’s basketball team since Jan. 5, will rejoin the team on a limited basis beginning on Monday. “Nikki has been working proactively to resolve
some personal issues,” coach Sylvia Hatchell said. “This work is on going and her return to the team will be on a gradual basis. She will watch practice on Monday and we’ll go from there.”
FSU sees more troubles with the law: Sebastian Janikowski, Florida State’s two-time AllAmerican kicker, was arrested at a nightclub early Sunday and accused of attempting to bribe a police officer into releasing his roommate. Bribery is a third-degree felony but it is up to the state attorney’s office to officially charge Janikowski. However, police said he can be charged with greater or lesser offenses. Janikowski was released from Leon County jail at 7:42 a.m., on $l,OOO bail.

Blue Devils hope to build new
streak tonight vs. Seminoles By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle
The last time Florida State beat the women’s basketball team, Peppi Browne was a sophomore in high school. Now a senior at Duke and a hoops veteran, Browne hopes to lead Duke to another victory against the Seminoles tonight at 7:30 p.m. Browne and the No. 9 Blue Devils (16; 2 5-1 in the ACC) travel to the Tallahassee-Leon County Civic Center against Florida State (8-8, 1-5). After a particularly draining overtime loss to No. 6 N.C. State last week, Duke will try to get back on track with another ACC win. Coach Gail Goestenkors noted that her team was upset after the loss, which ended a 15-game winning streak, but she added that her players were tough and ready to get back on the court. “I know we’re down about the loss,” she said. “I think we’ve got a pretty tough game, both physically and mentally.” During practice this weekend, Goestenkors reflected on the mistakes of the State game, but looked ahead to tonight’s match-up. “[Saturday] we worked on some ofthe things we need to work on based on the N.C. State game, but [Sunday] we focused on Florida State. We don’t have time to worry about too much, to sulk, to lick our wounds, because we’ve got to get ready for Florida State because they’re very, very good, especially at home.” For a team that finished last year dead bottom in the conference, Florida State has been doing relatively better this sea-
son, dropping four conference games by 10 points or less. The Seminoles opened their season 0-3, but their losses to Wake Forest, Virginia and Maryland were all
within five-point margins. Yet a loss is a loss and the fact remains that Florida State still resides at the bottom of the ACC standings. The Seminoles are led by senior Latavia Coleman. A 5-foot-10 forward, Coleman averages 17.4 point per game and is neck-and-neck for the ACC scoring title with the Blue Devils’ Georgia Schweitzer. “We definitely don’t want [Coleman] to go off,” Goestenkors said. “She’s had games where she’s gone over 30 points. I think we can still win if she has 15 to 17 points. But if she goes off and has an AllAmerican night, then it will be tough. “Peppi will be defending her; she’s a lot like Peppi in that she’s a small post player that can step up and shoot. But she’s strong, she’s very, very strong so we’ll focus on her.” Still, a Coleman rampage is not the only weapon the Seminoles might pull out tonight. Guard April Traylor, who averages 13.4 points a game and forward Brooke Wyckoff at 11.5 points a game, are also key players having great seasons. Goestenkors is still confident in her team’s ability, despite last week’s setbacks. “I didn’t think anyone would go through the conference and not lose a game,” the coach said. “It’s a tough conference from top to bottom. So we still feel good about where we are. There’s still a lot of room for improvement for us.”

ANALYSIS
Frontcu Backourt
THE NOD
Both Coleman, a leading ACC scorer, and Wyckoff, average over 10 points per game. But Browne scored 25 points against N.C. State; she and Parent will give the Seminoles all they can handle. Rice scored a career-high 16 points and the Seminoles' Torres is pitifully overmatched against Rice.
M
Schweitzer, the ACC’s of/?er leading scorer, owns the backcourt. Gingrich is likely to return with strong support. Traylor is having a good season as a leading scorer for FSU. But again, Schweitzer will likely dominate her opposition; after tonight, Florida will definitely have Georgia on their minds.
This is Duke’s clear advantage. West and Mosch are strong replacements who have given the Blue Devils depth through the entire season. FSU freshmen Lauren Bradley, Katelyn Vujas and Molly Beal show promise, averging high single digits, but are more a future starting lineup than a matured, tested bench.

team to start it off with.
After the battle royale with N.C. State last week, the Blue Devils are looking to go back to their winning ways. Goestenkors hopes to take the lessons learned last week to the court tonight and throughout the season as Duke continues its bid to top the ACC standings. Despite an improving team, Florida State’s time has not yet arrived and the Blue Devils will start their next winning streak with a 79-52 victory. Compiled by Kevin Lees —

NATO’s day in court? Investigating NATO for war crimes in the Balkans may do more harm than good Worldview Charles Newman When Carla Del Ponte took over the post of chief prosecutor for the Yugoslav War Crimes Tribunal last fall, she inherited a number of pending investigations and indictments of various war criminals. There were names of torturers, murders and rapists, but one name stands out: NATO. The International Crimes War Tribunal for the to Former Yugoslavia has acknowledged that it is currently reviewing the case against the 19-country military alliance. The charges were submitted to the tribunal by a coalition of antiwar lawyers and law professors, spearheaded by Canadian Michael Mandel, a professor of law at Osgoode Hall Law School at York University. MandeTs list of crimes committed by NATO focuses on the fact that the 78day bombing campaign was not sanctioned by the Security Council, and thus was a violation of the UN charter. He also adds charges of war crimes stemming from the alliance’s accidental bombing of a refugee near Djakovica, the decision to bomb civilian targets such as oil refineries, radio and television transmitters, bridges and rail lines as well as NATO’s directive that its pilots fly no lower than 15,000 feet to avoid enemy ground fire—which limits the pilots’ accuracy. NATO is certainly not pleased with these developments, After conducting a
humanitarian intervention, it has been slapped with an investigation into its conduct. But most international lawyers agree that the case against NATO is thin at best. For one, the accidental civilian casualties fall below the commonly accepted standard for war crimes. It is much harder to refute the illegality of NATO’s intervention; it clearly
violated international law. The problem is that this is not a war crime—it does not even fall under the jurisdiction of the War Crimes Tribunal. It is a matter better suited for the International Court of Justice—which considered a case brought by Yu-
goslavia against the members of NATO concerning the illicit bombing and promptly dismissed the charges. Even if the case against NATO is thin, the mere consideration of legal action will cause much more damage than most realize. Although it seems unlikely that charges will be formally brought against NATO, just the fact that Del Ponte is considering the situation could seriously harm relations between NATO and the War Crimes Tribunal. Angering NATO means jeopardizing its cooperation, on which the tribunal depends. Although the Dayton accords governing the peace settlement in Bosnia stipulate that NATO is not required to arrest war criminals in Bosnia, it has done so. NATO assistance is absolutely vital to the continued success of the War Crimes Tribunal—the tribunal itselfhas no power or authority to arrest war criminals. It depends on the voluntary efforts of NATO. To put NATO on trial would also eliminate what little support the United States has for the establish-
Should NATO be subject the War Crimes Tribunal?
ment of the International Criminal Court—an independent war crimes tribunal created to oversee all conflicts and war crimes. One of the United States’ main objections to the ICC is the potential for frivolous prosecution of U.S. leaders and military personnel for their peacekeeping actions. Mandel’s charges pose an interesting dilemma for Del Ponte. On one hand, she would have no desire to alienate NATO or other nations which might engage in humanitarian interventions in the future. But on the other hand, everyone, including the “good guys,” should be subject to scrutiny, or, in the words of the prosecutor’s office, “NATO is not above the law.” Should NATO be subject to the War Crimes Tribunal? Of course. NATO cannot claim its mission is one of human rights and then openly flout human rights law. But are these charges against NATO worth pursuing?
Absolutely not. The question of legality is not one to be decided by a war crimes tribunal; it is for the International Court of Justice, which has already dealt with the matter. In addition, there are other considerations that are not merely political, they affect the future success (or failure) of the War Crimes Tribunal. NATO is not above the law. But that does not mean the prosecutor has to investigate the alliance for alleged war crimes. The tribunal would do well to consider the consequences of their actions. The charges against NATO either have been addressed by another court or are not serious enough to warrant investigation. When combined with the necessary considerations over the future of NATO cooperation—which is vital to the tribunal’s ability to apprehend suspects—the answer is clear.

The only thing more disappointing to WONDERBOY and NASTYMAN this year than Fedoroffs scribblings was last weekend’s Oz party. We’d seen the fliers all week, and as soon as we saw AE-Pika building something big and wooden, we knew that this was going to be the party of the season. You can imagine how upset we were when we showed up that evening only to find out that Oz had nothing to do with the critically-acclaimed HBO prison drama, and instead was some sort of reference to an obscure 1939 Judy Garland film. After spending the week in preparation by lifting weights and storing up cartons of smokes to trade for prison contraband, we decried our ill fortune. And now we have no idea what were going to do with the 20 gallons of K-Y Jelly we’d purchased for the occasion. Anybody planning a trip to a highway rest stop is free to take it off our hands.

Rally protests legalized abortion RALLY from page

going to people who loved me.... I went to my friends, I went to my peers.” With the encouragement of her friends, Thompson decided to have an abortion—illegal at the time. She quickly regretted her decision, she said, especially after she lost two children due to miscarriages. “We grew up with Planned Parenthood,” she said. “It was so well camouflaged that we believed this was good,

or actually had, an abortion. More than half raised their hands. “It isn’t something that happens to the next guy,” he said, suggesting that abortions must be common at the University, “Something’s going on here. When was the last time you saw a pregnant Duke
undergrad?”
The rally ended with a prayer and candle-lighting. “Remember these children, remember the lives lost, remember the prepiousness ofthese lives to Our Father in Heaven,” said Rev. Joe Vetter of the University’s Newman Catholic Student Center. “Let us pray for the babies who were aborted today on this campus, in Duke Hospital.” After the rally, Hong explained his decision to gear this rally—the first of its kind at Duke—toward Christian supporters of the pro-life movement: “I very much appreciate the pro-life support of those who are not Christian, but with this rally I wanted to tap into a potential resource of pro-life support that had been previously under-utilized by Duke Students for Life,” he wrote in an e-mail.

this was right.” Since Roe vs. Wade legalized the procedure, Thompson said, abortions have become all too common. “If you were bom after 1973, you are holocaust survivors. Thirty-six million babies have died through the legal act of abortion...,” she said. “[Roe vs. Wadel is not something we want to celebrate. We mourn that.” After discussing her personal experiences, Thompson spoke more generally about students’ responsibilities to each other. “You are in the front lines,” she told her audience. “Generally it’s not going to be a parent a woman goes to when she finds herself pregnant. It’s going to be you.” When Thompson stepped away from the microphone, Trinity sophomore and co-president of Duke Students for Life Steve Hong noted that part of the Uni-
versity’s student health fee goes to pav for the morning-after pill, which many consider a form of abortion. He asked the small crowd whether they knew anyone who had considered

CHAFE from page 4 time for his scholarship. Chafe—who is the Alice Mary Baldwin professor of history, a former departthe author of Civilities and Civil ment chair and he said eventually hopes to write three or flights— books. more four In his 29 years of service at the University, Chafe said he has seriously considered departing Duke three times. “I never go down this road unless I’m serious about leaving,” he said Although Chafe said he frequently hears of possibilities at other schools, he explained that “Williams is a distinguished institution with a fine reputation and prestige in the academic environment, so this
made it very different.”
With Duke’s recent and sudden rise to national prominence, the University’s faculty and administrators receive such golden opportunities more and more often. “Some people think that one of the measures of success for an administrative leader is to help develop and mentor leaders for other institutions...,” Keohane said. “I tend to focus first and foremost on Duke, and on what’s best for our university. So I do try to keep our good people here by providing what they need to get their jobs done and enjoy them.” Chafe’s decision to remain at Duke has raised some questions about his future aspirations here, and his possible interest in the Duke presidency after Keohane leaves. “I’m not thinking about it,” he said. “The presidency of any college or university is not something I’m pursuing.” As for how long he will stay at Duke, Chafe said it is impossible to tell. “I see myself as committed to remaining in a vigorous and even stronger role at Duke,” he said, “but with no time parameters set on that commitment.
DRIVE from page 3
During halftime of the March 4 game in Cameron, a leading member of the National Red Cross Organization will present a trophy to the school that gathers the most blood. Each year, the trophy will be engraved with the name of the winning school. Although the Tar Heels are losing, they present a ready challenge, said UNC senior Lindsey Ligett, chair of the public service committee of the executive branch of UNC’s student government. “Because the rivalry between the two schools is so strong, we feel that people will be motivated to donate blood because of the opportunity to beat Duke,” she said. In addition to signs similar to the large scoreboard at Duke’s West Campus bus stop, UNC will be airing radio public service announcements during broadcasts of Carolina games. And student leaders say the publicity seems to be working. “Last week, we held what is normally one of our smaller drives of the year, and we exceeded our goal by 30 percent despite poor weather conditions,” Ligett said. Blood drives will be held across the Duke cam-
