Fla. Senate president nixes special session A draft memo calling legislators to the capital circulates, but McKay says the Senate will ‘not be rushed to judgment’ By DAVID BARSTOW
N.Y. Times News Service
AMY UNELL/THE CHRONICLE
Despite its near-victory over Duke Nov. 24, Temple was no match for the Blue Devils this time. Duke wrapped up its blowout by the end of the first half. On the strength of 17 three-pointers, which tied a school record, Duke promptly made quick work of the Owls. Jason Williams scored a team high, not to mention a career-high 30 points.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Late Saturday afternoon, it looked as il Republican leaders of the Florida Legislature were making plans to call a special session beginning midweek to award Florida’s 25 electors to Gov. George W. Bush of Texas. Legislative aides said the speaker of the Florida House of Representatives was ready to do his part Monday to call a session for Wednesday. But Saturday evening, John McKay, the president of the Florida Senate, said in a statement that he had not decided to call a session. “Earlier today I spoke to outside counsel for an hour discussing the risk involved if, in fact, a special session is not called," McKay’s statement said. “The Senate will not be rushed to judgment,” it added To call a special session, McKay and Tom Feeney, the speaker of the Florida House, must sign a joint proclamation calling legislators to Tallahassee, the state capital. Senior legislative aides said that drafts of a proclamation to call a session had been circulated in both chambers. Plans were for McKay and Feeney to sign the proclamation on Monday to call legislators into session on Wednesday, the aides said. But Towson Fraser, spokesman for Mike Fasano, the House majority leader and a close ally ofFeeney, had cautioned that legal or political developments, such as a decisive ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court, could derail those plans. “I can say, though, that Speaker Feeney is ready to come in Monday and sign something for Wednesday” Fraser said. Kim Stone, a spokeswoman for Feeney, reiterated what Feeney said Friday, that he was ready to sign a proclamation. “Representative Feeney will be here Monday,” Stone said. “If the proclamation is ready, we will sign it. As for the Senate, we do not know.” See ELECTION on page 14

Mexican president pushes for peace By ALEJANDRO RUIZ Associated Press Writer
SAN CRISTOBAL DE LAS CASAS, Mexico The roads of Chiapas were suddenly free of army checkpoints Saturday following an order from new President Vicente Fox, part of a peace effort with Zapatista rebels. “The new dialogue begins with deeds, not words. The new dialogue speaks with the sincerity ofactions,” said a communique signed by Fox’s interior secretary, Santiago Creel, and Chiapas peace negotiator Luis Alvarez. The pullback was ordered shortly after Fox was sworn into office Friday—a ceremony at which he also promised his first proposal to Congress would be an Indian rights bill supported by the Zapatista National Liberation Army, known as the EZLN.
The interior secretariat said troops had been ordered back from their camps as well as from their checkpoints. But reporters Saturday found many soldiers were still stationed in roadside camps beside the now-closed checkpoints. Creel, traveling with Fox in the neighboring state of Oaxaca, told The Associated Press Saturday the soldiers would withdraw in due time. “There’s no deadline,” he said. “But there is an order for this to happen progressively.” According to the statement, the withdrawal was intended to signal “the full readiness ofthe federal government to meet with representatives ofthe EZLN as soon as possible.”

Duke plans MLK festivities with South African flavor The weekend’s celebration, which will draw connections between Duke and Africa, will feature a speech by Professor James Joseph and a play starring Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee. By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle
With January just around the comer, students and are putting the final touches on this year’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebrations. While keeping King’s message of peace and racial harmony, organizers have decided to take a new approach to the weekend’s celebration, continuing events and discussions throughout the spring semester and partnering with the Divinity School as officials there continue to strengthen their partnership with South Africa. This year’s celebration will involve racial discussions from South Africa and the United States. Organizers said they hope that, in addition to remembering King and his legacy, the South African perspective will cast a new light on American race relations and will give participants a better understanding of racial conflicts around the world. “We wanted to see how the issues of racial reconciliation have been dealt with in other places around the world,” said Greg Jones, Dean of the Divinity School. “We thought by focusing on South Africa, it might provide a different vision for us to work from.... I believe that working with someone from a different culture sometimes sheds light on our own.” The student-faculty committee has scheduled a number of scholars and social activist to speak during the weekend: Hart Leadership Program Leader-in-Residence and Professor of the Practice of Public Policy James Joseph will speak. Joseph served as the U.S. ambassador to South Africa from 1995 to 1998. Dr. Mamphela Ramphele will be the weekend’s keynote speaker. Ramphele, who serves as managing director ofthe World Bank, will reflect on her life experiences during apartheid in South Africa. She was also the first black person and the first woman to serve as president of the University of Capetown (see story, right). Noted American thespians Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee will perform a play in Page Auditorium. “We think it will be a good balance of issues, especially with the selected performances and speakers,” said Vice President for Institutional Equity Sally Dickson. “Pm really excited about the entire weekend,

Noted scholar to give keynote address By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle
Internationally renowned scholar, writer and activist Dr. Mamphela Ramphele ofSouth Africa will deliver this year’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day keynote address. Ramphele, the first black person and the first woman to become president of the University of Capetown, serves as the managing director of human development at the World Bank. She oversees the organization’s activities in health, education and social protection and holds both a Ph.D. in social anthropology and an M.D, MLK weekend organizers said her speech will focus on her life, insights and reflections on South African apartheid and the nation’s effort to come together. “She has a very rich history” said Divinity School Dean Greg Jones. “She has showed real leadership in South Africa... and we’re excited about having her share it with us.” Ramphele represents a move away from the University’s traditional MLK weekend speakers, usually American civil rights leaders, but organizers said Ramphele’s
speech will give people the opportunity to reflect on the state ofAmerican race relations. “Honestly, I was not familiar with her before,” said Sally Dickson, vice president for institutional equity. “But I think that using the weekend to leam about someone new and the way other cultures deal with these kinds of conflicts... is a very good idea.” Known in her homeland for her participation in the black consciousness movement, Ramphele performed extensive anthropological research on children living in townships. In 1977, her calls for social reform upset South African officials, resulting in her banishment for seven years to the remote township of Lenyenye, where she continued her community activism, developing health clinics for the poor. A few years after her banishment, she returned to academia joining the faculty of the University of Capetown. In 1991, she was appointed the university’s president. She would stay there until 1999, when she joined the World Bank.

0, Canada... Jean Chretien, newly re-elected Prime Minister of Canada, spoke to the public in Bryan Center’s Reynolds Theater Sunday night. Chretien discussed a number of issues that affect both Canada and the United States, including trade, freedom and North American peace and stability. In a question-and-answer period after the speech, Chretien also broached the topics of health care and national sovereignty in the context of Quebec. Chretien’s speech was sponsored by the von der Heyden International Fellows program at Duke. The Prime Minister, first elected in 1993 and subsequently re-elected in 1997 and last Monday, is the leader of the Liberal Party in the House of Commons in Canada’s Parliament. Chretien, having presided over the signing of the NAFTA agreement in 1994,noted that every day, $1 million in trade is conducted between the U.S. and Canadian border. After spending part of his day golfing with President Bill Clinton, Chretien saluted him as a statesman, a personal friend, and a friend of Canada.

During the on-campus portion of its meeting this weekend, the Board ofTrustees approved several new building initiatives and one name change. Taking the Academic Council recommendation passed unanimously Thursday, the trustees voted in favor of recognizing the varied programs of the Nicholas School of the Environment by adding “and Earth Sciences” to the end ofits name. The change is meant to reflect the evolution of the school since the Division of Earth and Ocean Sciences joined NSOE in 1997 and the move to a unique type of faculty governance that allows faculty from all of the school’s relatively separate divisions to have influence on any hiring decision. The board also took action on five building projects. New construction must come to the board for approval in several stages ofthe planning process. The Fuqua School ofBusiness’ Keller Center project officials visited the board for ultimate approval Friday and received the go-ahead to begin a construction on a $26-million wing that will house a student center and offices. Workers will begin construction of the 75,000square-foot building later this month and hope to be done by July 2002. The $3.5-million Biological Sciences Building renovation also received final approval. The project will consist of three new laboratories on the building’s third floor and a penthouse. The renovation is required to meet the demands of the growing biology department. As expected, the trustees also gave the final thumbsup to the 62,000-square-foot, $lB-million football building construction project. Work will begin this winter on the facility, which is designed to house offices, meeting rooms, locker rooms, training rooms, a players’ lounge and a weight room. The $12.5-million Morris Building radiology facilities renovation and expansion and the $35-million Center for Human Genetics building visited the board as part of their steps toward final approval and construction.
The radiation renovation will replace old equipment and expand the building to accommodate growing demand for radiation treatment. The board approved the site and scope ofthe project as well as the architect chosen by Duke University Health System officials. The human genetics building, a 120,000-square-foot part of the Institute for Genome Sciences and Policy, may receive final approval next February, now that the trustees have approved the building’s design.

Biweekly retirement package increases By TESSA LYONS The Chronicle
As of Jan. 1, long-time employees on the biweekly payroll will receive an addition to their retirement packages. Those employees who have worked over 20 years at Duke and choose to retire early will get a noticeable increase in their retirement checks. Under the old policy, these employees would receive drastic cuts in their retirement checks, getting only 45.2 percent of what they would have received had they retired at the age of 65. The new plan gives these early retirees 70 percent of these funds. Deborah Horvitz, director ofhuman resources communications, said that all employees should have been made aware of the changes via a four-page brochure sent by mail. All employees questioned had seen the new brochure, but none had actually read the information inside. “I guess I do need to think about it. I only have five more years,” said Ethel Collins, a food service employee who has worked at Duke for over 20 years. Like
Collins, several employees said they recognized the importance of retirement plans, but other benefits—like
health care or vacation—seemed more pressing. Collins drew a parallel between many employees’ disinterest in the retirement preparation and an old saying: “You’re always prepared to live, but you never prepare to die.” Arthur Brodie, who has worked off and on for the University since 1957, said that he and his fellow workers found the information confusing. “I planned to make an appointment with one ofthe people in personnel—there is a lot of it I still don’t understand,” Brodie said. Horvitz said that her office is fully aware of the problems in communicating benefit details to employees and that the office is actively trying to remedy them. “One ofour goals is to make information more accessible, not as much jargon... clearer language...” she said, noting that the latest brochures are “close” to where the office wants to be. Duke hopes to offer more aid to employees in their understanding of their benefit packages with the creation of the Human Resource Information Center.

Residents lash out at UNC-CH over development plan By BELINDA YU The Chronicle
i
ha e Hill.residents are Anting over the University P Carolina at Chapel ot North Hill’s plans to turn the 975acre Horace Williams tract of land into a research park. Critics of the proposition complain that the community was not consulted in the University’s decision to deve op the land. “The town of Chapel Hill has not been involved in this phase of the planning,” said Chapel Hill Mayor Rosemary Waldorf. “[The council members and I] all knew that [University officials] were planning to develop the area for quite a few months, but we hadn’t been presented with anything,” she said, adding that she found out about the details of the plan through newspaper articles published within the last two weeks. The lot, located a mile and a half northwest of the main campus, was first discussed as a development possibility in September. At that time, Ayers Sans Gross, an
architect hired by UNC, suggested a building plan for the tract that would turn it into a glace where private industry and academics could interact. Waldorf noted, however, that nothing has been decided yet. “This is not a solidified plan,” she insisted. “The university folks characterize their plans as preliminary.” Pat Evans, a Chapel Hill council member, also described the plans as nebulous. “It has been my understanding that [this] has been an intellectual exercise as any owner would do when developing property... just a lot of brainstorming and planning.” Evans added that the recent criticism of the plan is unwarranted. ‘There is a meeting that the chancellor has stated will be on November 30, open to the public, in which information will be shared,” she said. “Also, the University has [met withl the town, the manager, the mayor, and members of the planning staff in order to get feedback.”

� MLK DAY from page 3 especially some ofthe discussions and community services events by students,” A separate student committee has scheduled several panels to discuss topics such as Caucasians and
King’s legacy, interracial dating and the history of Duke in the civil rights movement. Students will distribute AIDS “safe kits” and continue the transatlantic theme through a presentation of South African films. The site of the kit distribution will feature a display on AIDS statistics from South Africa and Duke. Organizers hope to emphasize King’s message of peace and forgiveness throughout the year and have planned to sponsor additional speakers, including the South African ambassador to the United States and the deputy chair of the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission. These speeches are also part of the Divinity School’s partnership with South Africa as outlined in the school’s long range plan. “It’s an exciting series of events for the weekend and the entire semester,” said Jones. “We want to keep the issues alive. It was the sense that we wanted the issues discussed to take a deeper hold.”

Do you hear what I hear? By JODI SAROWITZ The Chronicle
Campus radio stations are traditions on college campuses. Every movie college campus has one, and even the high school kids on Saved by the Bell had their own station. WXDU, Duke’s campus radio station, is a community establishment at 88.7 and 103.5 FM. It offers a variety of music including urban, local, electronic, jazz, blues, world and
comedy. It also has sports and the occasional comedy show. “Our main purpose is to educate and entertain,” said WXDU promotions director Kate Melcher, a staff assistant at the School ofLaw. “We introduce people to the kinds of music they couldn’t hear on other stations. We play what sounds good—not just watered down and homogenous music they would hear on commercial stations.” There is one small problem, however. The station’s frequency doesn’t get picked up clearly on campus, so its diverse playlist is not always heard. “You have to go out to the parking lot to listen to the station in your car,” said senior Pam Wells, president of the Duke University Union, WXDU’s parent organization. Although WXDU broadcasts from the Bivins building on East Campus, the broadcast tower is in a part ofthe Duke Forest, between Hillsborough and Chapel Hill. The signal is much stronger west of Duke than on the actual campus, with the result that many fans of the radio station are not actually affiliated with Duke. ‘They seem to have a very strong following in Chapel Hill,” said Peter Coyle, associate dean of University Life. But WXDU cannot change to a different frequency or move the broadcast tower. “All non-for-profit radio stations are in the same area of the FM band, and with all the universities in

the area, it is a crowded corner of the band,” Coyle said. “The towers can’t be too close together, and there are other universities to the east of us.” WXDU has addressed this problem by conducting a study to see if raising the tower would improve reception on campus, but the model showed that it would not, said station manager Jessica Stankeiwicz, Since the tower is probably not going to be moved, there is a transmitter on top of the Clocktower which translates the signal to 103.5 so that people on West Campus can hear it, said Stankeiwicz, a senior.
the antennae at events such as Springfest and Oktoberfest. If you don’t want an antenna, you can listen to WXDU on your computer. The station broadcasts live over the Internet at http://www.wxdu.duke.edu/, and listeners can even e-mail requests to the on-air disc jockey. The station has already gotten a few requests. The listeners can also be viewers, with a web camera showing a different shot ofthe studio every 50 seconds. “Some people forget [the cameral is up there; others play around with it and others turn it away from them, showing only the CD they are playing,” Stankeiwicz said. WXDU’s all-volunteer staff is made of 150 members who range in age from 15 to 50. About half of them are community members, and half are Duke students. “Of all our committees, WXDU is one of the best at connecting with the community,” Wells said. The interaction with the community is a source of pride for the station. “We have a wide range of people and a wide range of music,” Stankiewicz said. “There were a ton of community members at our benefit.... I wish more students were involved too.” The students involved with the station are DJs and also help in running the station. Station managers hold DJ training each semester to train interested students. “It’s part of the college experience, you have to have a student radio station—it’s one of those things,” Wells said.

Man robbed at gunpoint Nov. 25 in Gross Chem parking lot
From staff reports A visitor and his two sons were robbed at gunpoint in
the Gross Chemistry Laboratory parking lot after the Duke-Army men’s basketball game, said Maj. Robert Dean ofthe Duke University Police Department. The visitor told police last Friday that at about 10:55 p.m. Nov. 25, a dark sports coupe—possibly a Toyota or Nissan—with headlights that flipped out of the hood pulled up behind his car as he and his two sons approached it. A man—white, 22 to 25 years old, 6’, about 170 pounds and wearing a black cap, dark-colored sweat jacket and dark baggy pants—got out of the passenger side and asked the visitor for directions to Interstate 40. The visitor told the man he did not know, and the man responded, “Well, give me your wallet.”The man pulled a gun from under his jacket and pointed it toward the sky. The visitor threw his wallet, which contained credit cards, to the ground. The man picked up the wallet, got

Street, recently opened for phone or walk-in questions concerning benefits. Though some employees might worry that the latest changes to the plan may only aid a small number of people this doesn’t seem to be the case. While workers are employed for an average of 10 years, a sizable number of employees have worked past the 20-year mark: 2,538 current bi-weekly employees out of about 15,000. All employees agreed that the newest change is a good way ofrewarding those who have worked at Duke for a long time. “That is no more than logic,” Brodie said. “The people who have contributed more [should get more].” Horvitz said that this change—along with a cost-ofliving adjustment that will affect those who retired before 2000—is part of a continual effort by Duke to review and adjust compensation programs. “We are always looking to have benefits that will help us to recruit and retain staff,” she said. Nearly 63 percent of Duke employees are paid on a bi-weekly basis. These workers are covered under one benefit package, while those paid on a monthly or annual basis are subject to another. Duke Benefits Administration creates retirement packages for all employees, along with other benefit plans including health, dental and life insurance and disability payments.

Workplace precautions
A
week ago, tragedy struck the University when Ralph Clayton, an employee of the Medical Center, was fatally injured in an on-the-job accident. Clayton was performing routine maintenance work on a laundry chute in Duke Hospital’s loading dock when the chute’s automatic doors closed on him. He died later that night from the injuries. It is impossible to enhance too strongly the tragic nature of Clayton’s death. A friendly and well-liked employee, he will be sorely missed by his co-workers, family and the community at large. His unexpected and needless death should be sobering to all of us. The first reaction to the accident might be to lay blame. But rather than point fingers when it is still unclear where the responsibility lies, the University’s first step should be to try to heal the community and to take further safety precautions to help reduce the likelihood of future accidents. Safety should be the University’s number-one priority. To recover from a loss like this, Duke should revise its guidelines to place even more emphasis on safety and increase its measures to prevent such tragedies from occurring again. The University should also provide free counseling services for any of Clayton’s co-workers who may have been traumatized by his death. Hopefully, these steps have already been taken, as they will help reassure employees that the University cares about their safety. Duke can also demonstrate its concern for workplace safety by complying with any recommendations made by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which is undertaking an investigation of the accident. If necessary, the University may even go above and beyond these suggestions. At this point in time, it is unclear who, if anyone, is to blame for the accident. The OSHA investigation may reveal that the responsibility lies with the University, or with the laundry chute’s manufacturer, TransVac Systems, or perhaps with Clayton himself. In some ways, accidents are a fact of life in a community this large, especially one with the amount of industrial machinery that the University employs. The reality is that there are always risks involved with heavy machinery, and we cannot expect that nothing will ever go wrong. Tragedies are sometimes bound to happen. This does not mean we should trivialize the seriousness of the accident: A man is dead. But although his death was tragic, we must also accept that on-the-job accidents will inevitably happen in the best of workplaces. Still, the University should take whatever steps it can to make such accidents as infrequent as possible in the future, assuring employees that they are safe and making Duke as secure as it can possibly be.

Davidson seating determined by tiered wristbands I would like to remind students that wristbands for the Davidson game will be distributed tomorrow starting at 7:45 a.m. Last year, we had our worst attendance at wristband games because many students without wristbands assumed the stadium would be packed. Even if you don’t get a wristband, please come to the game, as we will almost certainly have a seat for you. We will use a tiered wrist-
band system for weekday home games to shift the burden of lining up away from the academic workday. When determining when to line up, be aware that the sections are intentionally unequal. This is because the relative difference in seat quality between 50 or 100 seats is significantly greater toward the front of the line. For tomorrow, the tiers will break down as follows: 50, 75,125, 200,250,300 and 400. This breakdown may
change as the season progresses. When returning to the line prior to 5:30 p.m., line up by wristband color and ignore other information on the bands. I hope to see many of you ready to cheer on the No. 1ranked Blue Devils tomorrow!

Anarchy spray-painter confuses vandalism for speech Well, it looks like someone is bucking for a promotion. Apparently someone in the “students for anarchy” got
promoted to lieutenant last week, and graduated from chalk to spray-paint. You have probably seen their work around campus, since they decided to ruin most of the benches on Main West and down in Edens. I will not give them more publicity here by repeating their slogan, but apparently they want to free a prisoner on death row. Well there are a
number of ways to go about that, and I don’t see sneaking around at four in the morning and defacing other peo-
ple’s property on the list. Even if I did believe in their movement and I wanted to join up and help, who do I call? If the purpose was to raise interest in the cause, then why use a method that requires that you remain anonymous? This was purely an act of vandalism and not really about a cause at all. People put time and effort into building and painting
their benches—maybe you anarchy kids should put the same into your cause and you might actually do some good. As it is now, you are just vandals. If I were the prisoner in question, I would surely drop to my knees and thank my lucky stars that you were on my side. Freedom could only be days away with this crack

Volleyball falls to Sun Devils in NCAA tourney By SARAH UNGER The Chronicle
After a tough season of close matchand.clutch wins, the Blue Devils (21-13) lost to the Arizona State Sun Devils (18-11) in the first round of the NCAA tournament Friday night in Minneapolis, Minn. “I feel like [Duke] played well,” coach Jolene Nagel said, in a mix of frustration and exhaustion. “We were so close to being able to getting through that first round. I really feel like we played well. We had our moments when we were really, really good.” This tournament matchup followed some of Duke’s most impressive wins of the season. Sentiments were high as the Blue Devils won five oftheir last six regular season games, and took second place in the ACC tournament after beating conference leader Georgia Tech. Duke arrived in Minnesota prepared to play a tough match. The Sun Devils had put up a 9-9 record in the very strong Pac-10 conference, and they are known for their ability to make tough digs and defend against strong shots. After spending much of their season working on ball control, the Blue Devils knew they were in for a real test. The night started offrough for Duke as the first game was marked by continuous Blue Devil sideouts upon which they were unable to capitalize. The 15-3 defeat in the first game, however, was enough to push the team to get fired up and motivated to get itself back in the contest. “After the first game, we realized that we were better than we had been playing,” sophomore Jill Sonne said. “We worked so hard to get to the tournament and we knew we had to give them a better match.” The surge that followed es

the lopsided first game loss was enough to reverse the first game’s momentum and give Duke a 15-12 victory in the second game. Although the Blue Devils were able to keep the remainder of the games close, they were unable to notch any additional wins. The third game was the most competitive of the match, as Duke was able to capture a late 14-13 lead. Arizona State took three straight points to secure itself a 2-1 lead in the match. Duke played tough the fourth game, but the Sun Devils were able to hold on and take the game 15-12. This was a very disappointing end to the Blue Devils’ season, mostly because the team thought this match was well within its reach. “Our team should have played better,” junior Ashley Harris said. “We had many opportunities which we could have capitalized on and didn’t. This win was well within our grasp.” Harris dominated on Duke’s side of the ball as she slated an impressive 21 kills and 16 digs. Perhaps the most impressive statistic of the night, however, was recorded by Arizona State junior Jami Coughlin, who tallied 19 kills to put her over the top of the formidable 1,000-kill mark. Duke’s stoppage of Amanda Burbidge was in itself quite a victory. “Their big player, a big player all year, Amanda Burbidge—we stopped [herl,” Nagel said. “She didn’t do much at all. She hit a .017. And she’s an AllPac-10 player, and all this and all that. She wasn’t able to be very productive against us at all. “But there were others that were able to be more productive, but it was nice to be able to stop her.” Nagel was as disappointed as her players, as she too saw the match as winnable. “We missed some opportunities tonight,” Nagel said. “We could have won this match if we had played a little more consistent.” The final game of the season can often overly affect postseason sentiment. Despite the tough loss, the team focused on the youth of its team and
next year’s prospects. Harris, for one, played a crucial leadership role this season. “I think it will be easier to be a good leader next season, with a year as leader under my belt,” Harris said. “I will still work hard and push the team,

Wrestling team takes Bucknell, drops another in Philly After losing their first match against James Madison Friday, the Blue Devils split their Saturday matches against Bucknell and Drexel By MICHAEL JACOBSON The Chronicle
After competing extremely well in early-bird and unattached open tournaments for the past three weeks, the Duke wrestling team finally got a taste of dual-meet action on the road this past weekend. “There’s a lot more pressure on the individual in dual meets than in unattached tournaments,” said 174-pound freshman Frank Comely, who went 2-1 over the weekend. “What you do affects the team result.” Using a lineup that featured three freshmen, the Blue Devils (1-2) fell to James Madison (1-1) Friday in Virginia before beating Bucknell (1-3) and losing
to Drexel (2-1), Saturday in Philadelphia. The Blue Devils traveled to Harrisonburg Friday, hoping that their success in tournaments would translate to more dual-meet victories. Despite wins in the lower weights and upper-middleweights, the James Madison Dukes prevailed 26-16, Saturday, however, started out a bit differently however. After Drexel handed Bucknell a 33-9 defeat in the tri-meet’s first match, the Blue Devils sent the Bison home winless with a 23-17 victory. Junior Harry Clarke, in the 149-pound class, back from an early-season concussion, got the match rolling in the first bout for the Blue Devils, winning by an 8-7 decision. Freshman Josh
Sheridan followed suit with a 13-5 major decision to put Duke up 7-0. Coach Clar Anderson was impressed with his freshmen’s showing. “I was really pleased with the freshmen,” Anderson said. “Josh Sheridan looked good that match and Frank Comely looked really good against Drexel. The freshmen did a good job for us on the entire road trip. I expect great things from them.” Bucknell, however, tied the match with victories in the 165- and 174-pound classes before junior Tom Cass put Duke up for good with a fall in 55 seconds, his second pin of the season. Freshman Levi Kamehm (heavyweight) took a forfeit and junior Luke Palmisano (133) scored a major decision as the Blue Devils evened their dual meet record to 1-1. In the finale, Drexel took an early 9-0 lead with a technical fall and major decision in the 157- and 165pound classes respectively. The Blue Devils, however, would come back to close the score to 9-6 with victories in the next two weight classes. Comely put Duke on the scoreboard with a 7-4 decision over the Dragons’ Dan Kennett and Cass then became the only Blue Devil wrestler to remain perfect on the day when he scored a 10-6 decision over Pat Miller to score the last of Duke’s points. The Dragons would go on to win the next six weight classes to bring the final score to 33-6. After a rough weekend, the team has over a full month off to recuperate until it competes in the Millersville Invitational Jan. 6. “We still have some guys out of the lineup,” Comely said. “We just need to take that extra step in practice.”

Women win, men go down in East Carolina swim meet While
the women improved to 3-1 with a 133-110 victory Saturday against East Carolina, the men were swashbuckled by the
Pirates, 134-108.
By CATHERINE SULLIVAN The Chronicle After a break from competition following the Nike Cup in mid-November, the women’s and men’s swimming and diving teams returned to action with mixed results Saturday in a dual meet at East Carolina. The women improved their record to 3-1 with a solid 133110 victory over the Pirates, while the men dropped to 2-2 after a 134-108 loss. The Blue Devil women, led by freshman stars
Lauren Comet and Lauren Hancock, relied heavily on their youth to capture nine of 13 events and raise their conference record to 3-0. “I was really happy that we won,” Comet said. “They were known to be an obnoxious team, so we all wanted to get the victory.” After a phenomenal Nike Cup in which she broke the school record of former Olympian Nancy Hogshead in the 100-freestlye, Comet continued her dominance in the event by winning with a time of 53:50. She also captured the 50-freestyle (24.13) and 200-breaststoke (2:20.25). After four dual meets this season, Comet remains undefeated. The other half of the freshman dynamic duo, Hancock, also won three events. She took the 1,000freestyle (10:22.08), 500-freestyle (5:06.19) and was part of the 400-freestyle relay team (3:36.78). “Lauren [Hancock] swam great for us today,” senior Liz Boswell said. “With everyone thinking a lot about finals now, it was tough, but we really did well.”
PAGES
Hancock and Cornet were not the only freshmen winners, though. Amy Halligan won the 200-butterfly (206.37) and Amanda Davis Captured the threemeter diving title (230.85). While the women swimmers were handling the Pirates, though, their male counterparts faced a tough 6-1 Pirate squad. It was a hard-fought battle from the beginning,” junior Chris Fleizach said. “ECU just has a great recruiting class because they are giving swimming scholarships and Duke still doesn’t.” The highlight of the day was the 400-medley relay, where Fleizach, senior Jack Newhouse, sophomore Ryan Spoon and freshman Conor O’Brien won with their fastest time of the year (3:27.72). In addition, Spoon, who was named ACC swimmer of the week earlier in the season, captured the 200breaststroke (2:05.07); O’Brien took the 50-freestyle
(21.58);

“I was exuberant about the [2OO-butterfly] race,” Fleizach said. “I swam it very well.” Duke also dominated the one-meter and threemeter diving competition, as freshman Doug Warner captured both with scores of 207.825 and 200.85, respectively. The Blue Devils had no answer to Pirate freshman Matt Walker, who is ranked 14th in the nation in the 200-freestyle and 21st in the 500-freestyle. Against Duke, Walker improved his unbeaten streak in dual meets to 15 by capturing the 100 (46.58), 200 (1:39.71) and 500-freestyle (4:39.79) events. Duke’s next official race is not until Jan. 13 against William & Mary, but the team will train and compete in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. from Dec. 29 to Jan. 8.

Hot-shooting Duke blows by Temple
Blue Devils win in convincing fashion By BRODY GREENWALD The Chronicle

Only 20 days into the Owls’ season, a twohour bloodbath had stripped Chaney of everything that 19 years at the program’s helm had
made his trademark. Minutes after a school record-tying 17 threepointers helped No. 1 Duke (7-0) bury the 17thranked Owls (4-3) 93-68, Chaney offered no reason for the dramatic disparity between Saturday’s blowout and the previous week’s nailbiter in Madison Square Garden. He shared no criticism of his team, nor did he make any excuses. He simply made one request. “I just don’t want to see Duke anymore,” the
Temple coach said. “I wouldn’t mind seeing anybody else.” The top-ranked Blue Devils rode Jason Williams’ career-high 30 points and a frightening clip of 56.7 percent from three-point range to their second victory in eight days over Temple. Unlike Duke’s thrilling come-from-behind win over Temple last week, Saturday’s contest was never close as the Owls suffered an arena-emptying rout in front of the largest men’s college basketball crowd in Pennsylvania history. Duke withstood sloppy play early, including nine turnovers in the opening 13 minutes, to grasp its first double-digit lead ofthe game when Carlos Boozer crashed through the lane to score his first points with 7:19 remaining in the first half. Boozer’s powerful drive marked the first points scored inside the three-point arc by the Blue Devils, and it pushed their advantage to 2615. The Blue Devils did not look back, regaining their composure on offense to turn the ball over See REMATCH on page 8 *

CHRIS DUHON recorded a career-high 12 assists at Temple
Three-pointers key victory PHILADELPHIA Duke did a lot of things well to produce a 25point victory against a Temple team that almost pulled off an upset the last time the two teams met. The Blue Devils dominated the entire game, but anyone who watched, played in, or for that matter, heard about Saturday’s spanking of Temple can tell you the key to victory. “We shot the ball really well,” coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “I’m not sure about the percentage, but we shot the ball really well. We played great, and we shot the ball incredibly. WeTe not going to be able to shoot like that every time.” If Duke was that consistent, it would be time to pick up your 2000-2001 NCAA Championship T-shirt.

SOPHOMORE JASON WILLIAMS not only dominated the Owls on the offensive end, but hounded Temple’s backcourt on defense as well.
The Blue Devils opened the game by connecting on eight of their first 12 threes, which would be a perfectly reasonable percentage were this game being played on your Sega Dreamcast. Duke finished the first half 11-for-18 from behind the arc, impressing everyone in attendance. “This is as good of an outside shooting team as I have ever had,” Krzyzewski said. The Blue Devils’ shooters deserve the lion’s share of the credit for Saturday’s blowout, but a change in Temple’s strategy made the shooting performance possible. In the final of the preseason NIT, Temple focused its defense around putting pressure on Duke’s perimeter game. With the Owls’ defense spread out, Carlos Boozer wreaked havoc on the inside totaling 26 points on only 14 shots. Determined not to make the same mistake twice, Temple turned its efforts to controlling the paint. “We concentrated our efforts on cutting off the inside,” Temple coach John Chaney said. ‘We shut [Boozer] down by sending someone underneath [when he got the ball].” The Owls’ defensive attack proved successful in taking Boozer out of the game offensively. The sophomore finished with eight See THREE-BALL on page 9 �

Blue Devils win by 20 at George Mason Beard, Tillis light scoreboard FAIRFAX, Va. After a first-half in which Duke’s pressing defense struggled to establish its trademark transition game, the Blue Devils once again received key boosts from freshman phenoms Alana Beard and Iciss Tillis. The duo’s outstanding defense paced much of Duke’s secondhalf explosion, as the two repeatedly trapped a slower George Mason squad and connected on several fast breaks. “Both picked up their level of intensity on the defensive end of the floor,” Goestenkors said. “[That] led to a lot of easy layups.”
Thomas Steinberger Game Commentary On an afternoon when her perimeter shot was uneven, Beard seemed to excel everywhere else. The freshman showed her ability to finish underneath the basket against bigger defenders and did a good deal of ball-handling as well. Her Duke-leading 20-point performance impressed George Mason’s coach Debbie Taneyhill. “She’s pretty good,” the coach said. “She can do everything... [and] her first step is hard to beat.” Yet it was her defensive versatility that stuck out as the Blue Devils began to run up the score on the Patriots. Beard recognized this after the game, and emphasized the importance of her and Tillis’ effort on the other side of the floor. “My main part on the team is to set the tempo defensively,” said Beard. “Defense is the main key to our offense.” After an up and down beginning, Tillis turned up her defensive intensity as well, using her 6-foot-4 frame to stifle George Mason’s passing.

The Chronicle
FAIRFAX, Va. The women’s basketball team (9-0) traveled to Fairfax, Va., yesterday
afternoon, to take on George Mason (5-1) in the opening game of a four-game road swing. After struggling in the early going, Duke came on strong in the second half to claim an 88-68 win. Freshmen Alana Beard and Iciss Tillis led the way early, scoring the team’s first 11 points. However, the story of the early stages of the game was the George Mason Patriots. After Tillis and senior Rochelle Parent scored the game’s first two baskets, the Patriots went on a 7-0 run to lead 7-4 at the 17:08 mark. Duke coach Gail Goestenkors said that the Patriots’ first-half edge stemmed largely from their hustle. “They did all the little things,” Goestenkors said. “They played with heart and passion in the first half, which were things that were lacking in our game.” The two teams were virtually even for the game’s first 20 minutes, and the halftime score stood at 39-38, in favor of George Mason, a situation Duke has hardly been accustomed to. The Patriots were led in the opening stretch of the game by senior guard Jen Surlas, who torched the Blue Devils for
21 first-half points, on her way to a gamehigh 27. Patriots coach Debbie Taneyhill was very pleased with her team’s early play. “We knew they were a good team,” Taneyhill said. “And we came out in the first half ready to go.”
But the third-ranked Blue Devils emerged in the second half and proved why they are counted among the nation’s elite. Parent tallied four straight points to open the half, as the Blue Devils went on a 16-2 run in the first 4:38 of play. Senior Georgia Schweitzer capped the run off with a layup, giving Duke a 13-point lead at 54-41. Schweitzer said that the improved play stemmed from the team’s halftime discussion. “Our intensity just wasn’t there in the first half,” she said. “We decided at halftime that we were going to play a lot harder.” Coach Goestenkors added that defense was a major key to the second-half improvement, which saw the Patriots score significantly less. “We were proud to come out and play with greater intensity and focus, especially on the defensive end of the court,” Goestenkors said. “Our defense ignites our offense, and we’re much more confident and exciting when we can force the turnovers and run.” See GEORGE MASON on page 10

Temple coach Chaney impressed with Blue Devils REMATCH from page 6 seven times the rest of the night and maintaining a double-digit edge that reached as high as 29. “You need preparation time; we had it, they didn’t,” Krzyzweski said, contrasting the three days ofrest his team had since Tuesday’s victory over Illinois with the one day off Temple had since its loss to Miami (Ohio) Thursday night. “We might have still won the game, but not by this margin.” Chaney, on the other hand, felt this was nothing out of the ordinary and that his Owls had been “very fortunate” to keep the first meeting close in New York. “I’ve never seen a team as good as this team,” Chaney said ofDuke. “They have mix-and-match parts; s*
they have ideal parts. I would love to be able to coach that team. I felt like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid; every time I looked up, someone was shooting,” Chaney’s witty analogy was a fitting description for an evening that saw the Blue Devils launch 30 threepointers, exactly three-fifths of all the field goals they attempted. Freshman Andre Sweet tied the program’s school record—l7—with his successful bomb from long range on a clean look from the left corner with 53 seconds left. Still, while it was the barrage of treys that made Saturday a unique offensive performance by Duke, it
was the team’s stifling defense that flustered and frustrated a Temple team now riding a three-game losing
streak for the first time since Dec. 1998. Owning a distinct size advantage, the Owls never managed to ignite their two big men, forward Kevin Lyde and center Ronald Rollerson. Rollerson and Lyde, who when matched up against Boozer and Shane Battier each faced significantly smaller opponents, only attempted 10 total shots in the entire game. Chaney attributed their ineffectiveness to the fact that each big man neutralized the other by restricting movement inside and allowing the opposing guards to double-down with ease on the more dominant big man. Whether or not the twin-towers attack is “dead,” as Chaney claimed, much of the credit for the struggles ofRollerson and Lyde can be attributed to freshman defensive stalwart Chris Duhon. Duhon prevented Temple from ever setting up its normally methodical, precise offense by harrassing point guard Lynn Greer, who turned in his worst performance of the season on 6-for-23 shooting with four turnovers. Through Temple’s first six games, Greer had played all 240 minutes, led his team in scoring in every game except its season opener and turned the ball over a mere 10 times.
“Chris had a great floor game and he loves to pass,” Krzyzewski said of Duhon, who equalled Temple’s team total with 12 assists. “He got a lot confidence from the way he was defending Greer.” The Owls only committed 13 turnovers, but Duke’s pressure in the backcourt and constant movement from player to player disrupted Temple all night long. After controlling the tempo of the first matchup, Temple found itself running up and down the court in a shootout-style game that decidedly favored the Blue Devils. “They play excellent defense and they make you keep changing offenses,” Chaney said. “They shut down everything. Mike [Krzyzewski] and I have talked many times, and he has, in my opinion, the best team he has ever had.” Krzyzewski was quick to dismiss that claim, noting a handful of seasons he coached stronger teams. “No, this is not the best team we have ever had,” Krzyzewski said. “This team is still very much a developing team.”
That the team Chaney does not want to see again anytime soon is “developing” is most certainly not what relative lightweights Davidson and Michigan want to hear entering their games at Cameron Indoor Stadium this week.

ason Williams was the biggest beneficiary of iple’s shift in focus. 'he sophomore came out on fire, connecting on all six threes he attempted in the first half.

Williams went 2-for-4 from behind the arc in the sechalf and finished the game with a career-high, and team-leading, 30 points. AMY UNELL/THE CHRONICLE “Jason has improved in every way,” Krzyzewski said. CARLOS BOOZER and JASON WILLIAMS take a moment to reflect on their victory against Temple Saturday. Boozer dominated the first “He’s in better shape, he’s making better decisions and meeting between Duke and Temple, while Williams was the star of the rematch. he’s keeping his feet under him [when he shoots!. Jason is one of the top players in the country and he is still learning about the game.” Krzyzewski added that he thought Duhon’s ability to relieve Williams of some ofthe ball-handling duties and the responsibility of guarding the dangerous Lynn Greer were major factors in Williams’ shooting performance. Whatever the cause of the three-point barrage, the result was evident. Temple’s players looked like punchdrunk fighters, and a large portion of the record-breaking crowd was already in its cars by the time the game finally reached a conclusion that seemed inevitable since late in the opening frame. Afterwards, Krzyzewski said the Blue Devils were finally playing up to their ability level. But he was not letting the performance lead him to place this team among the greats in Duke history. John Chaney, not one to shy from hyperbole, drew more dramatic conclusions. T don’tknow what you what you guys are seeing,” he said. ‘They just tore us apart. They handed us our heads. This is a very special group that you saw tonight. Tve never seen a team as good as this team.” '

“Iciss did better in the second half” Goestenkors said. “I knew she was upset at how she was playing. When she gets into an uptempo game she is much more effective.” The coach’s decision to switch defenses after the break from man-to-man to a match-up zone seemed successful at forcing this higher tempo and allowing Beard and Tillis to stand out. Beard struggled in the first half to contain the Patriots’ senior leader Jen Surlas, who racked up an astonishing 21 points against her on 8-for-ll shooting in the first 20 minutes. The change to the zone, however, let the freshman pay less attention to Surlas, who had just two shot attempts in the second half and was pressured by Tillis into an important turnover during Duke’s run. After committing a pair of turnovers and fouls before the break, Tillis was able to trap more often, as her quickness and long arms proved too much for a rattled George Mason team. Senior Georgia Schweitzer, who also had a strong second half, lauded the freshmen’s play. “I was very impressed with their defense,” Schweitzer said. “They came up with a lot of steals. They’re very offensive-minded [as well] and they are very aggressive.”
As the senior hinted at, Beard and Tillis established their offense through their defense, executing in transition to push the game well out ofreach midway through the second period. The difference was certainly felt by George Mason, as Surlas commented on the Blue Devils’ explosiveness. “We knew they would come harder in the first five minutes of the second half” said Surlas, who noted that they still were surprised by the defensive inten- LANEDRA BROWN scores and draws a foul shortly after coming off the bench during Duke’s impressive second-half run yesterday against George Mason. sity. “It shocked us a little bit.”

From across the quad you think it’s your friend. You’re all poised to say “what’s up,” the wave is in motion—and then—quick retraction of the hand. You’ve realized it’s really not your friend, but your friend Gone Wrong. That’s the essence of the bizarro concept. In multiplied form, the bizarros produce an evolutionary chain. This chain tends to generate branches when the trained eye keeps spotting new members—bizarros of the original bizarro. And then you have the possible addition of adjectives to denote ethnic or physical deviations from the prototype. Take for example the Bizarro Eastern European or Bizarro Stout Man. These are versions that have Gone Wrong in a particular direction. Pretty soon you start to wonder why everyone on this campus looks so suspiciously alike. The Chronicle’s recent egg donor ads could provide us with a clue. Perhaps egg donation was also a trend among the flower children of our parents’ generation. Maybe they were looking for inventive ways offunding new pairs of bellbottoms, trips to Woodstock, VW vans and LSD, the last ofwhich would account for the cognitive deficits apparent in the bottom dwellers of the bizarro evolutionary chain.

Me: the guy who spilled hot sauce on your hot pants.” But problems could arise when the missed connection goes something like this: “Me; Freshman guy riding the futuristic bus to West. You: tall redhead running around the traffic circle naked. Our eyes met briefly but then you kept on running. You’ve been running through my mind ever since. Any chance you’d like to run out of my dreams and into my arms?”
Think about it, Missed Connections could really help a lot of people out. If enough of us read them on a regular basis, there actually might be a decent chance of reuniting with your lost love or maybe even your long lost love child. Even the egg donors would get in on this one: “Son, it’s Mom. Don’t be mad. Please call. I really needed the $25,000.” Just hope the ad isn’t answered by your Bizarro Son.
THREE BLIND MICE would like to direct your attention to the inspirational banners in the gym, the sublime transparence of which reminds us that we can do anything.

Dems recoil Profs discuss Duke’s role in teaching ethics at possibility of leg. session � ELECTION from page

Democrats reacted to the possibility of a special session next week with dismay, although not with surprise. They have accused the Legislature’s Republican leaders ofacting in concert with the Bush campaign to provide, in effect, an insurance policy against the possibility of Gore’s winning Florida. disappointed,” said Lois “I’m Frankel, House minority leader. “I don’t like the fact that the Florida Legislature is being portrayed as thieves, thugs and political opportunists.” Bush, who trails Vice President A1 Gore in the popular vote, must secure Florida’s electors to win the White House. And while he leads Gore by 537 votes in the certified results of the Florida election, Gore is contesting those results and could conceivably still carry Florida. It is precisely this possibility that has galvanized the Legislature’s Republican leaders, who insist that Bush has already won and that Gore’s efforts to overturn the certified results are a brazen attempt to steal the election. Their political motivation has been bolstered by advice from conservative legal scholars, who testified last week before a select legislative committee that the Legislature had a duty under the U.S. Constitution to convene a spe-

Willimon alleges that this kind of mentality gives rise to behavior that negatively influences students even before they enter the classroom. In his report, Willimon said the trend ofplacing trators have advocated formal incenclasses in the middle of the week only tives for faculty to take part in student encourages students to take the weeklife, but because Duke sees itself as a end less seriously.

Willimon accused the faculty ofholdKeohane thinks the University ing students to “haphazard” academic standards, leaving them with little to should take responsibility for two ofthe do at night and on the weekends.

“If we were a religious school, then we would be teaching within a certain ethical framework,” said former faculty-in-residence Michael Hardt, associate professor of literature. “It’s important that we are a secular university system that doesn’t presume to have an even coherent ethical mission.” Others said they are not sure an at-
tempt to instill ethics in students would work, citing the rebellious nature ofcollege-aged students. And Hardt said his experience living among students confirmed such hypotheses. ‘There’s a whole range of [problems].... I’m the age of their parents, and they didn’treally want me to be involved. That seems perfectly logical to me,” Hardt said. Thompson, who also founded the faculty associates program, said the interaction between students and faculty associates—professors assigned to but not living with a certain dormitory—often seems contrived and awkward. He and others agreed that student-faculty interaction more naturally follows discussion in the classroom. “I’m a shy person, so going out and tiying to meet people cold is hard for me,” said Gauthier, the physics professor. “But if I get to know them through the classroom, I start to leam a little bit more of [their] outside interests. That’s a natural way for it to continue beyond the classroom.”
Others suggested that faculty are open to students, but that students must take the initiative to interact with them.
