Biweeklies set to get bonuses m

In order to help its biweekly employees through a one-time, three-week paycheck gap, Duke is giving them an extra week’s worth of pay in early March.

By GREG PESSIN The Chronicle

In a startling recognition of a pending administrative decision’s impact on the University and Health System’s 30,000 biweekly paid employees, Duke officials announced Friday that they will issue $7.8 million worth of bonus checks March 2. Each regular biweekly employee who works at least 20 hours per week will receive an extra week’s pay March 2 —in other words, biweekly employees will receive 53 weeks’ pay during 2001. Duke’s current payroll system allows only five working days between the end of the pay week and the pay date, as opposed to the industry standard of eight to 10. As a result of the rush, about 200 employees receive miscalculated payments each pay period. A new computer payroll system, which will go live this summer, demands a longer lag period. Human Resources administrators decided to add one week to the lag time, which will force a one-time three-week gap in pay checks between Feb. 16 and March 9. On March 2, when biweekly employees would have received their normal payment, they will receive the equivalent of pay for one week’s worth of work as extra compensation to help them through the transition.

Young Trustee pool narrows to 10 ByAMBIKA KUMAR The Chronicle

The job of the Young Trustee Nominating Committee, chaired by junior Sean Young, has been a bit more difficult this year— Young announced this weekend that the group has narrowed the 11-member Young Trustee applicant pool to 10 finalists.

Liggett Group considers developing old tobacco buildings By SARAH McGILL The Chronicle

Just last spring, plans for a massive redevelopment of the American Tobacco campus had the city’s leaders forecasting the revival of downtown Durham and lining up to back the project with aiding infrastructure. Now, the Liggett Group is quietly considering designs to convert eight downtown buildings into a mixture of shops, offices and apartments—an 835,000 square foot development rivaling American Tobacco’s in size. Liggett, the major cigarette manufacturer that completed its relocation from the Bull City to Mebane, N.C., last year, has hired architect Edwin Belk for the project, said CEO Ron Bernstein. Belk—the creative force that transformed old tobacco and mill edifices into what are now Brightleaf Square, Erwin Square and West Village—has already created a preliminary master plan for the campus, outlining potential uses for each of the buildings. The development could provide a much-needed link between the Brightleaf area and the city’s civic arts district, said Bill Kalkof, who directs the local nonprofit group Downtown Durham, Inc. Mayor Nick Tennyson agreed. “The Liggett property could provide a tremendous connection for our activity centers.” he said. “The redevelopment could put a bridge in there that could be very helpful.” Belk’s plan calls for the following: The research building on Main Street would provide laboratory space; The old headquarters on Main Street would be refurbished for office space; The Cobb and O’Brien warehouses directly south See TOBACCO on page 4 •

THIS DOWNTOWN WAREHOUSE, located on Main Street, is one of several in the Liggett Group’s complex that could be redeveloped into residential, office and retail space.

Bush settles into White House

The president adjusted to his new residence the day after his inauguration By DAVID SANGER

New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON

In his first full day in the White House, President George W. Bush gave a tour of

his new home Sunday to supporters, prepared to announce a trip to Mexico, and settled into an Oval Office that in less than 24 hours had been redecorated to remove virtually all traces of its previous occupant. After an exhausting Saturday night of inaugural ball-hopping, Bush woke early, had coffee with his parents and spent most of the day getting accustomed to his new surroundings. At moments, the 132-room mansion appeared somewhat unfamil-

iar to him despite his father’s fouryear residency there: The new president listened carefully as a White House guide took him and supporters he had met on the campaign trail on a tour of the public rooms. Later he greeted some of the 2,200 people who were successful in obtaining tickets to the traditional first-day open house. “I slept pretty well,” Bush said, telling reporters he planned to take it easy Sunday. Then, in a reference to his brief forays on the dance floor during the inaugural balls, where he seemed less than fully comfortable, he laughed and said, “I was exhausted from dancing so much.” Behind the scenes—and amid

falling plaster, fresh paint and a mass of computer cables—his top aides were planning their strategy for a week devoted to fleshing out his education proposals and taking the first legislative crack at his promise of a $1.6 trillion tax cut. His chief of staff, Andrew Card, said Bush was considering a trip to Mexico sometime in the next two months, to visit the foreign leader he knows best, the country’s new president, Vicente Fox. That would be followed by a trip to Quebec, Canada, in April for a summit meeting of North and South American nations. Together, the two trips would underscore Bush’s resolve to focus on this hemisphere.

Filipinos welcome Arroyo as president By CALVIN SIMS

New York Times News Service

MANILA, Philippines President Joseph Estrada’s departure from office this past weekend and the swearing-in of Vice President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to replace him brought a peaceful end to the Philippines’ worst political crisis since the strongman Ferdinand Marcos was driven from office in 1986. Estrada, who was accused of widespread corruption, stepped down Saturday, after top aides and military officials withdrew their support for him, and tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets in what is being viewed as a resurgence of the “people power” revolution that ousted Marcos. At church services, shopping malls, restaurants and

street stalls across Manila, the mood Sunday was upbeat and the talk centered on the pivotal role that huge public demonstrations played in Estrada’s exit. Speaking at a downtown Mass attended by several thousand people, Arroyo praised the country’s young people, who made up the vast majority of the demonstrators. “I will strive to give you a bright future,” said Arroyo, an economist turned politician. At the same Mass, the Roman Catholic cardinal, Jaime Sin, the nation’s spiritual leader, said the country was like a newborn child and admonished Filipinos to remain vigilant. “We must never allow the mistakes of the past to best us again,” he said. Down the street, Christy Garcia, a secretary, said Filipinos had “taken control of their destiny.”

Biweekly employees, who work for hourly wages, comprise 60 percent of Duke’s workforce, from secretaries in academic departments to research assistants in the Medical Center to nurses at Durham Regional Hospital Workstudy undergraduates will not be ehgible for the bonus, but the few graduate students on biweekly payroll will receive the payment. The current pay schedule requires financial and payroll staff to gather pay cards and calculate wages in only two-and-a-half workdays. During

weeks when everything goes perfectly, explained Associate Vice President for Financial Services Michael Mandl, the payroll staffs work is furiously rushed, which causes hundreds of errors. When printers break or electricity goes down, regular employees are hit even harder because their paychecks are delayed unexpectedly. The new system, Davidson said, will guarantee that employees receive accurate paychecks on time given almost any unforeseen circumstances.

Which Bush will it be? In his inaugural address Bush promised to unite, and now he must follow through

berties

President

George W. Bush delivered an inaugural address Saturday that expressed an admirable vision for his presidency. While admitting the divided state ofthe nation following an

embattled post-election campaign, Bush grounded his speech in the spirit of compassion and optimism that attracted much of the new president’s support. But while welcoming the ideals of civility, community and security, which Bush lauded in his address, we await confirmation that Bush will stand by these principles. Bush ran as a Washington outsider who has not yet had an opportunity to prove himself to Congress or the American people. If the people are to trust him to eliminate the differences that make it appear we share a “continent and not a country,” as Bush said Saturday, Bush needs to send bills to Congress that will demonstrate his ability and intentions to work with people from across the aisle to get things done. He needs to be the centrist he has claimed he is. In his speech, Bush drew attention to the United States’ concerns for the impoverished. “Americans in need are not strangers, they are citizens; not problems, but priorities,” he said. Bush spoke rightly, but if his words are to be taken seriously, his policies must demonstrate that the general welfare is a high priority. In addition, Bush should deliver tax cuts that are sensibly targeted to assist the poor, and the president must support campaign finance reform that will give new hope to the politically disenfranchised. To be effective, Bush needs to understand that he must work with a Congress that is almost as divided as this country. For political expediency, Bush cannot assume that his conservative base will automatically support him, but he must walk a razorthin line, maintaining the support of his base, engaging Democrats in policy discussions and sending bills to Congress that will draw bipartisan support. For example, it remains to be seen how Bush will handle the touchy issue of abortion. Bush has always been soft-spoken on the issue—he did not breach the subject in his inaugural address—and has so far indicated that due to a lack of political will to change existing laws, he will stay mum. Given the vast unpopularity ofoutlawing abortion, this decision is a wise one. Unfortunately, he has nominated two strong pro-life men for his cabinet, former Missouri senator John Ashcroft and Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson, to the positions of attorney general and secretary of Health and Human Services, respectively. We hope that this is not an indication that the president intends to show indifference toward abortion to the American people, while silently permitting members of his cabinet to carry out an unpopular agenda. Granted, Bush has been president for less than 48 hours, and the public does not yet have a good feel for the new administration’s style. The American people and the media should hold Bush to what he said in his inaugural address and make sure that he truly is a uniter—not a divider. The president must demonstrate that he is moderate in more than his rhetoric. It is the policies and appointments that matter.

Maureen Dowd James Baker, the man WASHINGTON who helped make two Bushes president, had a black-tie inaugural bash Friday night at the Ronald Reagan Building. In his welcoming remarks, Mr. Baker referred to the first President Bush as “41” and the second President Bush as “43.” Nobody mentioned 42, the Democrat sandwiched between, who was doing his best—with remarks about how the Republicans stopped the vote in Florida, with a primetime farewell address, with a Lewinsky plea bargain, with the firing of Linda Tripp, with inauguration morning pardons, and with a Barbra Streisand-style farewell tour at Andrews and Kennedy—to cling to the spotlight until the last microsecond. No. 41, among friends, decided to unleash Chiang, Bush argot for letting loose. He talked about “the terrible 37 days” in Florida. He said Warren Christopher “was in over his head when Baker took him on.” He said he and Barbara were “burned up” about the “gratuitous attacks” on Jeb. He praised the Tallahassee crew for doing “a fantastic job at getting out the truth and protecting the rights of all voters in Florida.” It was an astonishing scene, this skin-of-theteeth restoration of the Tex-prep dynasty. “I used to be George Bush,” the 76- year-old said, with a sweet, loopy smile. “I used to be President Bush. Now I don’t know what the hell I am.” Of course, Poppy is giddy. During his reign, no one thought Junior would ever succeed in politics because he reacted to every criticism with a hair-trigger temper. He showed no interest in policy, only in tracking

loyalty and disloyalty to the family. When he ran for governor, and later for president, W. disciplined himself not to be so volatile, so openly hostile to skeptics and naysayers. But on Saturday, as he stepped into his dad’s topsiders—both ofthem tearing up and nervously biting the insides of their cheeks—there was a question about whether he has gone from being too touchy to being too detached. Washington is a wet haze of clouds this weekend. Bill Clinton is leaving as he came

in—obscured in a Pigpen cloud of dysfunction and confession. Jesse Jackson, Mr. Clinton’s minister in times of trouble, is in his own cloud of marital misbehavior. W. is wrapped in a worrisome cloud of his own—a nimbus of non-engagement. The Bushes are encapsulated by their privilege, and W. has intensified this by distancing himself from firsthand information. When A1 Gore talked about media sex and violence, W. was at a disadvantage on popular culture, since he thought Friends was a movie and the Taliban was a rock band. He watches little prime-time television besides sports. When his presidency was being decided by a historic Supreme Court argument, he did not even tune in. He toned up at the gym. He was informed by his staff of Dick Cheney’s heart attack only after he said it didn’t happen on TV. He was not told about Linda Chavez’s Labor pains for 24 hours, until her problems had been dissected on the Sunday talk shows, which he doesn’t watch. When Tom Brokaw asked about John Ashcroft’s interview in the creepy neo-Confederate journal Southern Partisan, W. said he could not respond because he had not read it. Once you’re president, there’s little incentive to work on bad habits. Just look at Bill Clinton. But one measure of W’s presidency will be whether he can reveal himself through decisions that he makes rather than ones that are made for him by Dick Cheney and Colin Powell and Poppy, whether he can stop referring reporters to advisers and answer his own questions. Elected president at 69, Ronald Reagan was a fixed image politically. At 54, W. is a work in progress. If his style remains lackadaisical, that void is bound to spark power struggles among his aides, who will rush to fill it. The White House, like nature, abhors a vacuum. The new president thinks he can simply rely on his advisers for the bottom line. But even the most trusted aides provide information in away that puts them and their positions in the best light. A president who avoids primary information only gets the spin, not the reality. That means he can only react to the spin. And that means events shape him, not the other way around. W. has shown he can grow and change. It’s still early enough for him to leam that some things can’t be staffed out. Like the presidency Maureen Dowd's column is syndicated by The New York Times News Service.

Sans Beard, Blue Devils clash with ACC champs By BRODY GREENWALD The Chronicle

It has been a season of questions and answers for the fifth-ranked Blue Devils. Impressive early-season victories over LSU, Penn State and Boston College

silenced those who questioned whether a lineup loaded with freshmen and sophomores could hang with the nation’s elite. Reliable play from Georgia Schweitzer laid to rest doubts about whether or not Duke could thrive in the absence of

Krista Gingrich, the team’s only true point guard outside of reserve Vicki Krapohl. And eight straight victories provided a convincing response to any lingering uncertainty left after a humbling conference play-opening loss to Clemson.

Duke

Game time: 7:30 p.m. Place: University Hall TV/Radio: Regional Sports Network No. 5 DUKE 17-1 (5-1) Coach Gail Goestenkors Guard —■ Georgia Schweitzer, Sr. (12.8 ppg) Guard Sheana Mosch, So. (7.4 ppg) Forward Rometra Craig, Fr. (7.6 ppg) Forward Rochelle Parent, Sr. (5.7 ppg) Center —• iciss Tillis, Fr. (9.0 ppg)

Not one of these challenges, however, measures up to the one Duke (17-1,5-1 in the ACC) faces tonight in University Hall

against reigning ACC regular-season champion Virginia (13-6,4-2). See WOMEN’S BASKETBALL on page 11 �

ANALYSIS t: 3 0

1 o

The Blue Devils will have their biggest hole to fill in the frontcourt, where Alana Beard’s long arms will no longer be out there to torment the opposition’s

ball-handlers. Iciss Tillis will also have her hands full

trying to tangle with one of the nation’s most talented players, Schuye Laßue. Laßue has averaged nearly 23 points per game in ACC play this season.

Georgia Schweitzer still commands an extremely talented backcourt, but now even more pressure is on the reigning ACC player of the year. At times this season, Schweitzer has allowed Beard to take over the offense, but that scoring will now have to come from a variety of people, beginning with Schweitzer. It is her time to carry her team.

Rometra Craig will receive her first career start, while Missy West, Michele Matyasovsky and LaNedra Brown will all have increased roles off the bench for Duke. UVa’s Svetlana Volnaya has come off the bench recently for the Cavaliers, but she is still a dangerous player who averages double-figures. It is almost impossible to tell how a team will react to the loss of its star. Last season, Duke suffered a humiliating loss in Charlottesville following Peppi Browne’s season-ending injury, but the loss of Beard is not as long-term or devastating to the team’s morale. Still, at home, UVa holds the edge here.

player, highly touted freshman Ansley Cargill, came into the match ranked second in the nation. She had a formidable opponent in Notre Dame’s Dasso, ranked third in the country just behind Cargill. Dasso won 6-2, 6-3. “I was a little nervous going into my first [dual! match,” Cargill said. “She made very few unforced errors and was accustomed to the fast courts. I was constantly on the defensive from the beginning of the points.” The Blue Devils fared better at No. 2 singles, with 16th-ranked Amanda Johnson defeating Vamum 6-4,6-4. “I felt that I played really well,” Johnson said. “I was a little bit nervous but more just pumped up and ready to go. It got tight in both sets, but I did a good job putting the match away.” Duke dropped both No. 3 and No. 6 singles, as Miller lost to Nina Vaughn 6-4,64, and Adams fell in the only three-set match of the day to Guy, 6-4, 5-7,6-2.

Wrestling tallies victories over Coppin State, Duquesne By MICHAELJACOBSON The Chronicle

week, the wrestling Duke 6 team took its share Duquesne of lumps. After an extremely disappointing loss to Appalachian State, a match in which the Blue Devils came out flat and were out-wrestled by the Mountaineers, they traveled the next morning to Raleigh, competing in the perennially tough N.C. State duals. Despite winning two of three matches in Raleigh, it was apparent that the Blue Devils needed a break. But if Saturday’s matches in Pittsburgh were any indication of the rest of the season, these wrestlers got all of the rest that they needed. The Blue Devils lost only three individual matches out of the team’s 20 weekend, this handling Puke

Duquesne 26-6 and Coppin State 543. The wins raised the Blue Devils’ dual meet record to 8-4 as they head into ACC action. “We battled back from a tough

loss,” 174-pound freshman Frank Comely said of last week’s defeat to Appalachian State. “We had to come roaring back. Everyone wrestled well this weekend.” Comely was one of eight Blue Devil wrestlers to go 2-0 on the afternoon, including senior captain Sean Meakim’s impressive return to the lineup. Although Coppin State had only five out of 10 weight classes filled, the Blue Devils left little doubt as to

who was the better team. Duke won four of the next five bouts on their way to handing the Eagles one of two humiliating defeats on the day. Coppin State would also lose badly to

Duquesne, by a score of 50-0. After both Duke and Duquesne knocked off Coppin State, the stage was set for the event’s premier match. Duke, one of the ACC’s up-andcoming teams, at last had the opportunity to wrestle against one of the nation’s premier teams. The Dukes have won three of the last seven NCAA East Regional Championships and feature a lineup with two returning NCAA qualifiers.

Apparently the Blue Devils are also ready for the spotlight. Duke lost only two matches to Duquesne, giving the Dukes their worst loss of the season. Unfortunately, Duke’s schedule does not stay this easy for the rest of the season. The Blue Devils’ real task begins this weekend when they begin their difficult ACC schedule in Charlottesville, Va., against the Cavaliers, who are coming off an impressive victory in the Virginia State Wrestling Championships. “UVa will be tough,” Comely said.

Intercollegiate

“The schedule definitely doesn’t get any easier.” For a team that has shown incredible potential over the course of the season, the Blue Devils will have to peak at the right time in order to survive in the rugged ACC.

Blue Devils dismantle Ramblin’ Wreck as Battier re Duke ran away with the contest early as Jason Williams and Carlos Boozer combined for 34 points before the break. Reserves Reggie Love and J.D. Simpson both saw first-half action. By CHRISTINA PETERSEN The Chronicle

Alexander Memorial Coliseum. Second-ranked Duke (17-1, 5-0 in the ACC) downed unranked Georgia Tech, 98-77, with a combination of Duke’s trademark defense and the No. 1 scoring offense in the ACC. The Blue Devils outscored the Yellow Jackets (10-7,24) 52-33 by halftime due to the offensive efforts of sophomores Jason Williams and Carlos Boozer, who combined for 34 first-half points. Shane Battier ran a clinic for the Georgia Tech offense in the second half, tying his career high with 34 points of his own. Battier scored 30 points in the second half alone, including a 14-3 personal run over in just under two minutes. “I’ve had stretches where I felt good this year and last year, but nothing like this Battier said ofhis game-winning effort. The Blue Devils got off to a shaky start, as Williams avenged an early three-point Yellow Jacket lead with eight unanswered points. Williams opened the Blue Devils’ scoring with a layup and two quick treys. Georgia Tech never again led in the contest. “Jason Williams is a great ballhandler,” GeorgiaTech coach Paul Hewitt said. “He’s too good a ballhandler and too dangerous in the open court.” Both sides were plagued by fouls in the intensely physical contest, but the Yellow Jackets’ leading scorer and 6-foot-11 center Alvin Jones’ four fouls in the first half proved the back-breaker for Georgia Tech. Jones fouled Boozer on a routine layup with 5:19 left in the half, and was then charged with a technical foul for some words exchanged with the referee. The technical made four for the Lakeland, Fla., native, who had turned in only five points. See MEN’S BASKETBALL on page 10 � ”

Lute TUCSON, Ariz. Arizona 88 Olson says he does not UCLA 63 raise his voice in the Arizona locker room. He does, however, make it clear when he is unhappy. With the 17th-ranked Wildcats trailing UCLA 43-35 at halftime Saturday, Olson expressed his displeasure with his players’ defensive effort. They obviously got the message. The Wildcats blitzed the Bruins 55-22 in the second half in an 88-63 rout. “It wasn’t fire and brimstone,” Olson said. “It was just, ‘We’ve got to get after it.’ I thought we were dead in the locker room. I didn’t feel we had that snap we needed to have, and the best way to solve that problem is to get after people defensively.” The Wildcats (13-5) won their fourth in a row and handed UCLA its first conference loss, which snapped the Bruins’ six-game winning streak. “We knew we were going to go out and play better in the second half,” Arizona’s Luke Walton said. “This is our home. We were not going to let UCLA come in here and win.” Arizona swept a pair of home games from Southern California and the Bruins in Olson’s return to the court. Olson had

missed five games during the illness and death ofhis wife of 47 years, Bobbi. “Our chemistry is starting to get there. You can see that this should be a really good defensive team,” Olson said. “The defense can make so much of our offense happen, but we can’t be passive and reactive, which we were in the first half.” UCLA (10-5) entered the game with the longest winning streak in coach Steve Lavin’s five seasons at the school. But in the final stages of the Bruins’ second-half disaster, Arizona’s band was chanting “Rick Pi-ti-no, Rick Pi-ti-no,” a reference to the former Boston Celtics coach purportedly interested in Bavin’s job. UCLA shot 54 percent from the field in the first half (15-for-28), and 24 percent (9for-37) in the second. “We wore down and their pressure created a frenzied pace,” Bavin said. “They played good, smothering defense, which forced 21 turnovers.” Richard Jefferson added 12 points and shut down UCLA’s top offensive threat, Jason Kapono, who was just 2-for-14 with a season-low four points. “The whole day I was rushing my shots and not getting my body squared for good looks,” Kapono said. “I was just never able to get into a good rhythm. The bottom line was that I played poorly”

In the next two minutes, the senior followed with two more threes, a field goal and a foul shot. Battier went on to score 30 points in the second half, 20 of them in the sixminute span following the senior’s opening jumper. “I really don’t remember the second half very well,” Battier said. “When I play like that, I’m very relaxed and a much better player.” Battier scored 34 points last year as well, setting a new career-high against Wake Forest at Cameron. Both the Maryland game two years ago and the Wake contest last season took place in Cameron, giving way to worries that Battier could not find the offensive chi on the road. Saturday’s performance, though, put those fears to rest as the senior forward actually won the Yellow Jacket fans over. Krzyzewski said Battier ranks as the most wellrounded player in recent Duke history. “Battier is the most complete player I’ve ever coached,” Krzyzewski said. “He plays every play—offense and defense. He makes sure the bus driver is there and

even makes sure my tie matches. He’s amazing.” The only worry about Battler’s dominant play is that he accounted for over one-third of theBlue Devils’ points Saturday. A lack of depth is a critique that has been made against the Blue Devils all season. With only three players scoring in double-digits Saturday afternoon, there is the concern that Duke does not have the bench to support a winning effort in March. Krzyzewski may have sensed this same failing, which could explain his early bench substitutions of reserves Reggie Love, Andre Buckner and J.D. Simpson in the first half. Yet, even with such woes, if Battier can find the chi and turn in an equally dominant performance in March, Duke may not have to worry about its bench.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. There is no question about who the go-to guy is at North Carolina. Joseph Forte scored a dozen points in a four-minute span late in the game to lead sixth-ranked North Carolina to an 80-70 victory over Florida State Saturday. The sophomore’s timely scoring prevented what could have been an embarrassing loss to a team struggling to win its first ACC game “He stepped up when they had to have somebody make plays,” Florida State coach Steve Robinson said. “He did what he had to do to help their team win.” The Seminoles (5-13, 0-5 in the ACC) had pulled to 60-57 with 7:42 left on a steal and breakaway layup by point guard Delvon Arrington. That is when Forte took over. The slender wing player scored his team’s next 12 points, including a pair of three-point shots, and put the Tar Heels ahead 72-61 with 3:08 left after breaking loose on the base line for a dunk. “If the game is close, my teammates try and get me the ball and let me score, said Forte, who missed just one shot during his decisive burst and finished with 28 points.

“The guys were getting a little tight when the game got close. I hit a three and it got us a little more relaxed,” Forte added. Forte went 10-for-15 from the field overall, including 4-for-7 on three-pointers. First-year North Carolina coach Matt Doherty knew whom he needed to turn to once the game tightened. “Forte should take over,” Doherty said. “He is a mentally tough kid.” North Carolina (15-2, 5-0) jumped ahead 33-13 on its way to leading 49-30 at halftime, but had to survive a second-half charge by the Seminoles. Kris Lang added 11 points and Jason Capel 10 for the Tar Heels, who shot 48.2 percent for the game. Center Brendan Haywood had seven blocked shots in the game to become North Carolina’s career leader in that category with 246, one more than Sam Perkins, Doherty’s teammate in the 1980s. Arrington, who scored a career-high 23 points Tuesday against Virginia, led the Seminoles with 18 points to go along with a game-high five assists. Monte Cummings, who sparked Florida State’s second-halfcomeback along with Arrington, added 14 points. The Seminoles will try to get that elusive first ACC win Thursday against N.C. State.

Sampras’ dominance questioned after loss to Martin By STEVEN WINE Associated Press

Four MELBOURNE, Australia from defeat, Pete Sampras crouched behind the baseline to receive serve, desperate for a sign of shakiness

points

by Todd Martin. A veteran player known to blow a lead, Martin was now trying to serve out an upset victory against a friend who had beaten him 13 times in a row. With a berth in the quarterfinals of

the Australian Open at stake, Martin wavered only briefly. He rushed a forehand into the net, then smacked two serves that Sampras couldn’t handle, put away a difficult volley and belted another service winner to complete a 67 (2), 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 victory. “I give him all the credit in the world,” the third-seeded Sampras said. “I don’t think I played poorly. I played fine. He just played better than I did. That’s the best he has played against me in many years.”

PETE SAMPRAS dejectedly sinks his head during his fourth-round loss to Todd Martin

The upset spoiled a potential showdown Tuesday between Sampras and defending champion Andre Agassi. Instead, Martin will get the chance to avenge a painful loss last year at Wimbledon, when he blew a 5-2 fifth-set lead against Agassi and was unable to convert two match points. ‘Today proved to me that I can serve out a match,” Martin said. Sampras’ defeat left the tournament without its three top seeds. No. 2 Marat Safin lost Sunday to No. 14 Dominik Hrbaty 6-2,7-6 (6), 6-4, and No. 1 Gustavo Kuerten was eliminated Thursday. Hrbaty’s next opponent will be No. 12 Patrick Rafter, who ousted No. 8 Tim Henman 6-2, 6-3, 6-3. Rafter reached the quarterfinals of his country’s biggest tournament for the first time days after announcing he may retire at year’s end. There will be talk that Sampras’ defeat is another sign of his decline, particularly in the wake of the drubbing Safin administered to him in the U.S. Open final last September. But in both matches, Sampras simply ran into a red-hot player. “I would assume Andre Agassi is pretty darned pleased Pete lost today,” Martin said. “A couple of other guys might be as well. In my mind he’s still the best player in the world.” Sampras was not at his best in Melbourne, struggling through a trio of three-hour victories before losing. Usually dominant with his serve, he was broken 17 times in four matches, and he failed to snap his streak of not winning a major event other than Wimbledon since the 1997 Australian Open.

But at 29, Sampras remains hungry to add to his record 13 Grand Slam titles. He has even committed to a full clay-court season in preparation for the only major to elude him, the French Open. “I feel like I can still win majors, and I’d like to win a couple more before it’s all said and done,” he said. T know I can do it. It’s disappointing not to do it here, but I’ve got many years and many Slams ahead of me.” The weather, mild Sunday after two scorching days, was not a factor in Sampras’ latest loss. Recurring foot blisters—common for him on the Australian Open’s Rebound Ace surface—were not a factor either, he said. The problem was Martin, whose losing streak against Sampras dated to 1995. Martin lost to his fellow American in tournaments large and small, outdoors and indoors, on hardcourts, carpet and clay. But this time he out-served Sampras and had the better return as well. In the second set, Martin cracked three return winners to break for a 5-3 lead, then served out the set to even the match. He broke again in the third game of the next set to take the lead for good. “I don’t know what I could have done,” Sampras said. “I needed for him to drop off a little bit.” It didn’t happen; Martin refused to crack and remained calm even after the final point. Instead of a jubilant display in victory, Martin met Sampras at the net with a sympathetic pat on the back. “Pete’s a friend of mine, and I don’t like to see him lose,” Martin said. “But if I have to see him lose, I’d just as soon it be to me.”

Hingis, Serena to meet in Australian Open quarterfinals By STEVEN WINE Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia With characteristic bravado, Serena Williams and Martina Hingis say they are ready for another showdown. Williams belted winners from all over the court even 12 feet behind the baseline—for an easy victory today and a berth in the Australian Open quarterfinals against the top-seeded Hingis. “I’ve prepared for it already,” Williams said. “My preparation was done before Lgot off the airplane.” Said Hingis: “I’m playing well, so I have the chance to beat anybody out there.” Williams, seeded sixth, advanced by overpowering Daja Bedanova 6-2, 6-2. Hingis earlier beat Rita Grande 6-0, 6-3 Neither player has dropped a set. Hingis, seeking her sixth Grand Slam title but first since the 1999 Australian Open, has lost just 12 games in four matches. Williams, the 1999 U.S. Open champion, has lost 19 games. Hingis took a 5-4 lead in their rivalry by beating Williams en route to the Sydney title earlier this month. Williams then blamed rustiness following a threemonth layoff, but she is not using that excuse now. “I play enough. I win enough,” she said. “Obviously I’d like to win more, but a lot of people would kill to do what I’ve done.” Williams played her most polished match of the —

tournament against Bedanova, coming to the net often and slamming winners from both sides. Sprinting across the court on one point, she retreated into the corner 12 feet behind the baseline and belted a running, lunging forehand winner. Williams smacked 29 winners and eight aces. In the players’ box, her family and friends—already looking ahead to the next match—sat reading a transcript of the latest Hingis news conference. Only one of Hingis’ matches at Melbourne Park has lasted an hour, and she dispatched Grande in 46 minutes. The Italian won only nine points in the opening set and just 10 in Hingis’ eight service games. The performance did not entirely satisfy Hingis. With an overhead, Grande finally won a game to even the second set at 1-1, and Hingis responded by throwing her racket in disgust. “I kept lobbing her, and she kept hitting overheads,” Hingis said. “I was like, ’OK, one more and I kill myself’ I was getting a little frustrated about that, but overall I played a very good game and came through quite easily.” The score reached 3-3 before Hingis reasserted her dominance to close out the win. She’s trying to reach the final for the fifth year in a row. In another fourth-round match, No. 10 Amanda Coetzer beat Paola Suarez 6-1, 6-4. Coetzer next plays the winner of tonight’s match between No. 3 Venus Williams and No. 13 Amelie Mauresmo.

pretty significant,” Hewitt said. “What we do every day is based on his presence and when he was out of there, Battier just took over.” The Blue Devils capitalized on the Yellow Jackets’ fouls, as Boozer went 10-for-12 from the foul line in the first half. After Hewitt benched Jones to save him for the second stanza, Duke built on a 14-point lead to head into the locker room ahead 52-33. “Not that they need my approval, but I’ve got a lot of respect for Duke,” Hewitt said. “People load up and give them their best shot and they never make any mistakes for lack ofeffort.” Duke became looser with the ball in the second half, outscoring Georgia Tech by only two points, 4644. Sophomore Mike Dunleavy suffered the most from Duke’s lack of focus in the last seven minutes of the contest. After an early miss, the shouted Yellow Jacket fans “Airball,” every time the forward handled the ball. Dunleavy attempted to regain his confidence and silence the crowd with a bucket, but it was not meant to be. The sophomore native struggled all afternoon, only converting 2for-9 from the field and O-for-2 from

the line. “It was a hard-fought game today, and it was tough to get a rhythm,” Krzyzewski said. “I thought we were a little lax with the ball in the last seven minutes.”

In spite of Dunleavy’s underwhelming performance, Battier’s 30 second-half points boosted the Blue Devils past the Yellow Jackets. The senior forward began his tear with a short jumper from the foul line, followed by two threes to boost Duke, 68-46. The Georgia Tech bench and Hewitt earned a technical foul, giving Battier more free chances. The usually hostile Yellow Jacket crowd cheered as the senior missed for the first time in over a minute. However, the Thrillerdome audience was then dazzled by 12 more points in the next minute as Battier sunk a pair each of field goals, foul shots and three-pointers. Battier led all scorers with 34 points, shooting 63.2 percent from the floor, including four three-pointers. Boozer and Williams each turned in 24 points. Boozer also came one rebound away from a double-double. Despite four fouls, Jonesreturned late in the second half to pick up eight more points to finish with 13 for the Yellow Jackets. “We’ve won a lot of close games,” coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “We’re a good team, but we’re not a dominant team. There’s no one who’s dominant—we’ve just been lucky to hit shots and win close [games].” The victory marked Duke’s ninth straight over Georgia Tech, and the Blue Devils lead the series 30-15 in the Krzyzewski era. v

Coach says team will benefit long term from Beard’s absence

Pr- WOMEN’S BASKETBALL from page 3

Separated by only one game in the conference standings, Duke and No. 25 Virginia square off in Charlottesville in much the same way the two teams met nearly a year ago. It was a harsh winter evening last January when the Blue Devils defeated a cross-town rival, only to see their star go down in the process. With Peppi Browne on the sidelines after a tom ACL against North Carolina ended her Duke career, UVa massacred the Blue Devils and took command of the conference. Twelve months later, Duke again finds itself headed to Charlottesville, Va., one game after losing its brightest star, but this time the Blue Devils hope to make the trip without suffering the same humiliation. With Alana Beard and her 16.8 points per game out three to four weeks due to a dislocated thumb, Duke must now answer the most important question of its season; How will it respond in the absence of its star?

Ex-Panther awaits today’s sentencing � Former NFL wide receiver Rae Carruth will be sentenced today following convictions on three charges related to the murder of Cherica Adams, Carruth’s pregnant girlfriend. By PAUL NOWELL

"Well I hope much better [than last season],” coach Gail Goestenkors said. “It’s a similar situation obviously in that we re missing our leading scorer and defensive stopper. It’s different in that last year we knew that injury was basically the end of Peppi’s career. I think last year we were in a little bit of a state of mourning.” That mourning period translated into a 20-minute funeral process that buried the Blue Devils in a manner the program had not experienced in recent memory. Duke posted season-lows in both points and field-goal percentage, in addition to scoring only 12 first-half points following an 18-0 opening run by Virginia that kept the Blue Devils without a single point until after the second TV timeout. “It was perhaps the first time in my entire career that I felt we didn’t compete,” Goestenkors said of last season’s loss. ‘That first half was just disastrous. We’re a year older now and I think we’ll be ready to compete this year.”

Goestenkors will turn to Rometra Craig, another freshman, to fill the void left by Beard, who had many media members considering her as national freshman of the year. Craig has never started a game in her Duke career, but her slashing ability has helped create opportunities for her teammates. Without Beard’s team-leading 64 steals, much of Duke’s points off turnovers will likely be reduced. Goestenkors said she will employ Duke’s traditional high-low offense more now in order to compensate for Beard’s absence. That sort of change will force the Blue Devils to rely much more heavily on execution and solid inside play. Still, regardless of the offensive outlook, the objective remains unchanged. “We just need to come away with wins,” Goestenkors said. “We need to realize that we’re a great team even without Alana. We’ve never been a team has relied solely on one person.”

Rae Carruth awaits sentencing CHARLOTTE the today, with possibility of spending his next 25 years in prison for conspiring to murder his pregnant

girlfriend. The former NFL wide receiver, who turned 27 Saturday, escaped a first-degree murder conviction that could have led to a death sentence. He was convicted Friday of conspiracy to commit murder, shooting into an occupied vehicle and using an instrument, in this case a gun, with the intent to destroy an unborn child. Defense lawyer David Rudolf Rae Carruth

plans to ask Judge Charles Lamm to vacate the conspiracy and other convictions because they are inconsistent with the murder acquittal. “I haven’t given up and Rae hasn’t given up,” Rudolf said after the verdict was announced. Carruth stood stone-faced when the verdict was read. On the other side of the courtroom, a smile appeared on the tearstained face of Saundra Adams, whose pregnant daughter, Cherica Adams, was shot four times Nov. 16,1999, and died a month later. Adams raised her arms after the jury delivered its decision, then hugged other sobbing family members. The verdict came after about 20 hours of deliberations over four days by the jury of seven men and five women Lead prosecutor Gentry Caudill declined to discuss the verdicts. Cherica Adams, 24, was mortally wounded in an attack that prosecutors said Carruth set up to avoid paying child support. Prosecutors said the former Carolina Panthers receiver used his car to block Adams’ car so a hired gunman could shoot the woman, who was eight months’ pregnant. The jury took the case Tuesday afternoon and told the judge on Thursday that they were deadlocked. Sent back for more discussions, they came up with a verdict the next day. Foreman Clark Pennell said he did not think there was any compromising to avoid the deadlock. “I don’t think there is anyone on the jury who could not look you right in the eye and say they felt we made the (right) decision,” he said. Defense attorney Jim Gronquist, who represents one of Carruth’s co-defendants, Stanley “Boss” Abraham, said some members of the jury might have wanted to consider a second-degree murder or manslaughter conviction, but those options were not available. “Perhaps they were sending a message that they should have been given the options,” he said.

Recent developments in the European Union passport make this more likely than ever before. The call for the creation of a EU defense Pavel Molchanov force is especially alarming.

THE ARTFUL DODGERs escort makes her way through rush Monday, Monday THE ARTFUL DODGER THE ARTFUL DODGER has been a busy fellow, and he has been a naughty fellow. Fascinated with women in general and with the greek system at Duke, he went to great lengths to infiltrate last week’s sorority rush and to figure out just what matters in the tent city that is Duke Society. Some of you will no doubt scratch your temple at this. Except for those ofyou who actually worship at temples, and would no doubt regard scratching those temples as an act of sacrilege, probably meriting serious time in Hades... or at least as a nectar boy of some sort. Clearly, as a 67” Native American, it was out of the question for THE DODGER to enter rush himself. Perhaps some of you laugh at the mere notion of this, and I laugh at you for laughing at me! Ha! And to those of you who laughed at that joke about me laughing at people who were already laughing, well I laugh at you too! That is a lot of laughing. Early in the week, I watched the women of Duke make their way to early rush events. And, with the exception of one particular girl who I spotted on the quad (with hair like sunlight, skin like the moon, her beauty and person so singular oh, the heart bends!), I laughed at these silly people. The direct beneficiaries of humanism, the enlightenment and two major revolutions, they were still conformists at heart. Sort of like a fellow receiving a fine cut offilet mignon and deciding at the end of the day that hamburgers are really where it’s at. Indeed, it seems that in the face of materialism intellectual virtue has no place to hide on today’s college campuses. And that is what prompted me to hire an escort and to pay

her to go through rush. Her name was Alexia, and she was free from sin. Actually, I really can’t vouch for Alexia’s overall chastity. After all, we know what escorts really do. But that isn’t what I mean. Alexia really was the embodi-

ment of true American decadence and materialism... she sold her physical presence to men for money, and used that money to make herself look good, and she made no bones about it. She was far more honest than the droves of Duke students who pay lip service to individualism on a daily basis and then conform, conform, conform. So, you see, she really was very honest in her own cheap perfume scented sort of way. Let me tell you the tale of the escort sent through rush by THE ARTFUL DODGER.

...she really was very honest in her own cheap perfume scented sort of way. You can’t see me, but I just lit up a cigarette. I don’t smoke, and I really just bought these cigarettes to create a certain ambiance in telling this story. I am sitting in a leather armchair.... We begin our story in Troy, just after... no, too much pretext... we’ll start when I called Vinny, Alexia’s pimp, and paid $5OO for a week’s worth of her services. Yes, much better. I outfitted Alexia with a wireless microphone and four golden rules:

1. Discuss Booze. 2. Discuss Boys. 3. Look Good. 4. Personal Worth Worth of Handbag. Betting that the members of most sororities don’t =

really know each other, I had Alexia show up at one of the more prominent organizations and join the rush team. Her first-round interviews with rushees were priceless. Here is a transcript of her chat with one girl. They discussed professional ambitions: Rushee: So, what do want'to do with your life? Alexia : I would like to be the Heidi Fleiss of the

Research Triangle. Rushee : Oh, really, that is so neat. Heidi Fleiss is so neat. Alexia What would you like to do after Duke? Rushee: I would like to be the Heidi Fleiss of Darien, Connecticut. Alexia : Interesting. They talked about men: Alexia: Hi. Welcome to (name of sorority). I got so wasted last night and then my agent called and I had to go out on a date with these two Japanese businessmen. Rushee Oh, really, that is so neat. Japanese businessmen are so neat. Alexia: Did you listen to what I just said? I am a Semiprostitute and two guys from Japan paid to take me home. Doesn’t that offend your moral code in some way? Rushee: Alexia, you are so super. Alexia (to rush chair): Get this one a bid. :

They waxed existential;

Alexia: I really like your purse. You have great shoes. Rushee: I really like your purse. You have great shoes. And by the time it was all over, Alexia was right at home in the Gothic Wonderland, because basic elements of human truth have away of poking out from behind even the most durable Kate Spade handbags. As for the Japanese businessmen, they signed up to rush several fraternities and are looking forward to taking Alexia to mid-rush. THE ARTFUL DODGER is an ex officio member Sigma Epsilon Chi sorority.
