Wolfe agrees to speak at graduation DNC chair By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle

Tom Wolfe is renowned for his incisive observations of American life and his penchant for white suits. When he

speaks to graduating seniors this spring, he may have to trade in his suits for a commencement gown, but students will still not miss his flare. An award-winning author and journalist, Wolfe will deliver the commencement address May 12 to the Class of 2002, President Nan Keohane announced yesterday. “In addition to being an accomplished writer and reporter, Tom Wolfe has a well justified reputation as one of the most perceptive chroniclers ofAmerican culture,” Keohane said in a statement. “I am very pleased that he will be sharing his insights with our graduates and their families as this year’s commencement speaker.” Wolfe brings a wealth of experience examining culture through his decades as an author, reporter and commentator, producing such best-selling works as The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test (1968), The Bonfire of the Vanities (1987) and A Man in Full (1998). He is widely known for his sharp criticism on such issues as race and economic inequality. He said students have that same sense of critical thought. “I like the questions students ask, because as you get older, you are less likePRATIK PATEL7THE CHRONICLE ly to ask fundamental questions for fear one of his books an visit to Duke. during earlier President Nan Keoof looking mockish, naive or innocent,” FAMED AUTHOR TOM WOLFE signs See WOLFE on page 11 � hane announced Thursday that Wolfe will be the Class of 2002’s commencement speaker.

backs Bell’s mayoral bid � The Democratic Party’s national leadership weighed in on Durham’s mayoral election, endorsing former county commissioner Bill Bell. By MATT ATWOOD The Chronicle

In an unusual move for a local election, the chair of the Democratic National Committee endorsed Bill Bell for mayor of Durham Thursday. Speaking to about 50 the City of community leaders, Bell DURHAM supporters and reporters HilipPM on the steps of City Hall, DNC chair Terry McAuliffe praised Bell for his leadership during his 26 years as a Durham County commissioner. “The entire national committee of our Democratic Party is here to wholeheartedly endorse Bill Bell to be the next mayor of Durham,, North Carolina,” McAuliffe said. In the Nov. 6 election, Bell will face incumbent Nick Tennyson, whom he trailed by 7.4 percentage points in the primary earlier this month. See BELL on page 12

Cameron, Wallace Wade implement stricter security � Basketball spectators will no longer be allowed to bring backpacks into Cameron Indoor Stadium, under heightened security after the Sept. 11 attacks. By ALEX GARINGER The Chronicle

Beginning with Saturday’s Blue-White scrimmage, spectators will no longer be allowed to bring backpacks into Cameron Indoor Stadium during

basketball

games.

The ban is one of two new security measures in Cameron. The second bars spectators who leave the stadium for any reason during a game from re-entering the building. The policy change follows a nationwide trend at college and professional stadiums of heightened security in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks, said Clarence Birkhead, chief of the Duke University Police Department. “Since the events, most of my colleagues have beefed up the arena security for football games, as did we,” Birkhead said. “We are extending the same security measures for basketball.” Last month, police and stadium officials placed more support staff at the gates ofWallace Wade Stadium, checking for prohibited items like weapons, alcohol and large, bulky bags. The security checks will take place outside of See SECURITY on page 11 �

Although the University will reserve a certain number of beds for sophomores on West Campus, officials have decided that upperclassmen will retain priority in the housing lottery. Rising sophomores who choose not to live in linked Piecing

Seniors will have priority over singles on West, with second pick of the rooms going to juniors. On the other hand, juniors will have priority over seniors in selecting doubles and triples. Senior Sean Young, Duke Student Government liaison for residential life, said the junior double and triple priority decision was made because more juniors than seniors choose to remain on campus. He added that rising juniors feel they are getting squeezed by both sides. “We’re making a general assumption that students [who have been at Duke longer] are more prepared to seek out services [convenient for West Campus residents] when they need them. It may be better for our younger students to be nearer to these services,” said Bill Burig, assistant dean for student development. He stressed that next year’s residential plans are not yet finalized, as

he and other housing officials seek feedback from students. The process for Central Campus apartment picks will not change. But if students currently on Central want to relocate, they will have the same chance of being placed in a new apartment as

University officials believe these

changes will provide students with housing priorities comparable to those they have received in the past. “Much ofthe same opportunities are available to students. They’ll still have the opportunity to request singles, and they will still be able to block,” Burig said. “[This process] assures us that there will be in fact opportunities for seniors to live in the residence halls [since] all the residence halls and quads will have accommodations for all [up-

perclassmen].” There are now 150 sophomores living on Central Campus, which housing officials predicted would be the number of rising sophomores who would have requested to live in an apartment for the fall.

However, because all rising sophomores will be required to live on West, Burig and others expect 150 rising juniors and seniors—who would have lived on West—to be displaced. Although some rising juniors and seniors have expressed concern that

they will have to live in Trent Drive Hall, which will be converted into singles in the future, student leaders hope the option will be voluntary. “Singles [will be] chosen before other rooms,” said senior Vik Devisetty, president of the Campus Council. “[We are] hoping that some students will choose [singles in] Trent so that no one is forced to live there.” Burig said each room on West will house its originally intended occupancy, lowering the number of triples from over 100 to just 26. Because there will be a decrease in triples, residential blocks will be limited to doubles.

In the wake of the nationwide anthrax scare, Duke physicians have received several requests for Cipro and other antibiotics, but infectious disease specialists say they are not writing preventative prescriptions for worried patients. “I have not prescribed any antibiotics [for anthrax]. Not for anyone,” said Dr. Richard Frothingham, a specialist at the Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center and assistant professor in the division of infectious diseases at Duke. “I have been asked; I have even been pressured,” he said. Pharmacies at Duke Hospital, Durham Regional Hospital and Eckerd Drugs on Guess Road said they have not been filling an unusually high number of prescriptions for ciprofloxacin, which is sold under the brand name Cipro. Frothingham said the risk of harmful side effects and the community danger caused by stockpiling drugs prevents physicians from writing prescriptions in North Carolina, where no anthrax exposures have been documented. “Individuals should not try to treat themselves or to obtain antibiotics to hoard them.... Hoarding could be harmful to the public good because it could create shortages that don’t need to be there,” Frothingham said. Dr. Deborah Friedman, a fellow in the division of infectious diseases, has also received requests from anxious patients who have been suspicious of powdery substances they have come across. “If there is not proven exposure to anthrax... nor a proven infection...

Freeman, naming donor of Jewish life center, dies at 56 By JAMES HERRIOTT The Chronicle

mated cost of $3 million, had been in planning since the mid-1980s, but funding had stalled until a major gift from Freeman. “The Freeman Center, because it is such a handsome and functional facility, has brought many non-Jews into a Jewish space for the first time and has thereby made them feel more comfortable in a Jewish space. And that is good for bridging gaps between cultures,” said Vice Provost for Academic and Ad-

Bryan Freeman, the naming donor of the Freeman Center for Jewish Life and a Duke parent, died Oct. 18. He was 56. Described by his friends as a generous and humble man, and by his family as a hard-working father who would do anything to provide for his loved ones, Freeman funded the center to provide a hub for the Jewish community at Duke. “He’ll be remembered as a generous person who came through for the Jewish ministrative Services Judith Rudercommunity at Duke when there was a man, a friend of Freeman. need for vision and courage,” said FCJL Freeman was reluctant to have the director Roger Kaplan.

His family declined to comment on the cause of his death, and New Jersey officials are still investigating. “He was a fiercely loving and loyal father and husband,” said Danyelle Freeman, who attended the University for two years with the Class of 1996 before transferring. “He went to great lengths to provide us with every opportunity.” She added that her father was a workaholic. “The only thing he did was spend time with his wife, his three children and work.... He’d work until 1

Lange reports Black Faculty Initiative on track By KENNETH REINKER The Chronicle

The University is on track to meet its black faculty recruitment goals, said Provost Peter Lange at Thursday’s meeting of the Academic Council. But he said the initiative still faces several challenges. In 1993, Duke had 44 black professors; since then, 84 have been hired, but 43 have left the University, yielding a net gain of 41. Lange expects Duke to meet its goal of doubling the 1993 number by 2003. Problems still exist in several areas, however, including uneven hiring success across programs, difficulty with the retention ofblack faculty and the lack of a “pipeline” to educate new black professors, Lange said.

Arts and Sciences and the School of Medicine have had the largest increase in the number ofblack professors since 1993, with 19 and 17, respectively. The Divinity School gained two, and the School of Law, the Pratt School of Engineering and the School

Two black Democrats criticize redistricting plan After the state House voted 62-57 to give initial

approval to new House district lines, two Democrats

spoke out Wednesday against the map that they had supported just one day earlier. Rep. Mary McAllister, D-Cumberland, and Rep. Alma Adams, D-Guilford, claimed that the new map left very few districts with a black majority. “I just don’t believe that we will have as many African-Americans again [as] in this House today,” McAllister said. While Democrats have tried to maintain their majority, they have also been cautious to follow civil rights laws, 'vr p \I|7WC IN rL VV Democrats increased the minori- i1 ty population in five districts t-it-itv' V� with black incumbents. The cur- i rent map, however, has allotted 12 majority-black districts, compared to 16 after the 1990 census. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced Thursday that it will not support a plan with less than 14 such districts. The final plan must be approved in time for federal attorneys to check the map’s legality without delaying the start of-the election filing period. House Speaker Jim Black, D-Matthews, agreed to postpone the final vote, as the House adjourned for the weekend, leaving room for changes and angering Republicans. •

She said this is the first time that the assistance program has not been able to meet its applicant’s needs. Recruiters often emphasize the scholarship as a reason to enlist, and many, including Guard soldier Mark Smith of Charlotte agree that-it was a major reason they enlist. “It’s the ploy recruiters use to get you in the door,”

For example, a bomb threat can receive as little as four months in prison. “I don’t think a false report of one of these is less of an offense than another one,” said Sam Ellis, RWake. House members agreed to some clarifications, notably that farmers would not be penalized for using pesticides.

West Virginians accuse 4 tobacco companies of producing defective cigarettes: Dr. Phillip

Goodman, a radiologist in the Medical Center, took the witness stand Thursday, leading off the defense of four tobacco companies—including North Carolina companies Lorillard Tobacco Co. and R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Holdings—against West Virginia smokers accusing the company of a making a disease-causing product. The plaintiffs are asking for medical monitoring as compensation for the company’s negligent behavior. Monitoring would involve lung tests administered to smokers not exhibiting symptoms at ages 40 and again at 45. At 50, their organs would be scanned. While plaintiffs claim this will lead to life-saving disease detection, the tobacco companies are bringing forth Goodman and other experts to argue that the technology necessary for such provisions is still experimental and that additional procedures are necessary to detect disease. Defense attorneys also emphasize that the plaintiffs include smokers who have smoked at least one pack a day for at least five years. This is the first time the tobacco industry has been part of a class-action medical monitoring case in the United States.

Pratt forum focuses on bioterrorism Two students report bikes stolen By MATT BRADLEY The Chronicle

The Pratt School of Engineering hosted the latest in a series of community forums on terrorism last night, focusing

on technology for counterterrorism. The forum focused on new technologies for detecting mechanical and biological terrorist attacks. The panelists also discussed methods for improving old technologies at a time when weaponry is anything but predictable.

“The interesting part is that the terrorists could use our advanced infrastructure against us without the use of weapons,” said David Brady, the director of the Fitzpatrick Center for Photon-

ics and Communications Systems. Panel participants also included Pratt Dean Kristina Johnson; Leslie Collins, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering; Amin Vahdat, assistant professor of computer science; and Allen Cheng, a resident in the School of Medicine. Johnson began the forum with a discussion of pattern recognition technology. This optical technology, used by submarines to detect other periscopes on the surface of the ocean and by medical technicians to detect the shapes of cancer cells, can also be used to pick out specific faces from a crowd of people. Johnson also discussed In-Fiber Liquid Crystal Optical Switch technology, using fiberoptics inlaid in concrete to determine the stability of a building before it collapses, giving rescue workers an approximate time frame in which to respond to a crisis in an unstable building.

Schwartz to chair business school board:

Bear Stearns & Co. Inc. President Alan Schwartz, Trinity ’72, has been named chair of the Board of Visitors at the Fuqua School of Business for a threeyear term. Schwartz has served on the Fuqua Board ofVisitors since 1986. He succeeds Richard Wagoner, president and chief executive officer of General Motors Corp,, who was recently named to the Duke Board of Trustees. “I am deeply grateful that he has agreed to serve as our new board chairman and look forward to working with him to strengthen Fuqua’s position as a leader in education and research worldwide,” said Fuqua Dean Doug Breeden. The Board of Visitors is Fuqua’s chief advisory group, composed of top executives from companies worldwide.

Nan Keohane announced Thursday. The new funds will be used to support research into the genetic aspects of lung cancer. In 1997, the couple established the Ruth Albert Endowment for Eye Research. The Cancer Center’s genomic research efforts are a component of Duke’s new Institute for Genome Sciences and Policy. Lung cancer is the most deadly cancer, with nearly 170,000 new cases diagnosed each year. It accounts for more than one-fourth of all cancer deaths in the United States, and kills more people than colon, prostate and breast cancer combined.

GE, Pratt to partner: Engineering students will team with Durham middle and elementary students to tend gardens, study worms, predict the weather and conduct other projects aimed at boosting students’ math skills. Math Understanding through the Science ofLife, or

MUSCLE, will include students from Lakewood Elementary and Rogers-Herr Middle School with Pratt School of Engineering undergraduates. MUSCLE will be funded through a three-year, $300,000 grant from the GE Fund, the philanthropic foundation of the General Electric Co. and a $150,000 grant from the engineering school.

Flu shots to be given: Duke is offering free flu vaccines to all employees. Starting Nov. 5, the University will administer vaccines at central locations throughout the campus and the Hospital. Duke employees who wish to be vaccinated at their own primary care site should contact that facility regarding flu vaccine availability, times and fees. Vaccine schedules and locations are listed at http://www.dukenews.duke.edu/Dailyol-02/flu.htm. Shots will be administered only to employees with Duke badges.

Collection helps faculty teach � EDDY from page 6

“Eddy painted as a hobby, but he was very good. The paintings are good for teaching because they show the inside workings of the instruments,” she said, pointing to a painting of trumpets from different eras. “He shows history, but he also shows the technical side.” Departments other than music can also use the collection as an educational tool, Neece said. For example, an acoustician from the physics department has already taken his class to view the exhibit. “We have ties to art history, English literature, political history with the military bands and jazz instruments,” Neece said. Demonstrating the collection’s link to political history, she pointed out an early 19th century keyed serpent, an instrument made of wood and covered in leather,- used in military bands. Although students only have access to the instruments by appointment, Randall Love, associate professor of the practice of music, plans to teach a course entitled ‘The Early Piano” next semester, which will allow students to use them. “Hearing these original sounds affects interpretation enormously,” Love said. “The Eddy col-

lection is a great resource. It allows a visceral experience of real antiques. Playing Mozart on an original instrument is almost like being in a time machine. You get input both intellectually and through the senses.” In addition, special concerts sometimes allow students to access the rare instruments. Three students will play some of them in a concert this afternoon at 2:30 p.m. in the music building, Neece said. Junior Jiyoon Im, who will play on a pianoforte, said a pianist is limited in sound and tone on the old pianos. “I find it much more difficult to create contrasts in dynamics, but this shifts the focus to the melodies and phrases themselves so that you let the music play itself,” Im wrote in an e-mail. “On the modem piano, I usually play too loudly compared to the flutist and cellist, so there is a shift in balance in our group on the Eddy instruments.” The music department plans to build display cases upstairs to house the exhibit, including an audio tour, which Neece said she hopes will be open next semester. She added that hopefully students will have a “sneak preview” at the collection’s dedication the weekend ofFeb. 26.

I don’t want students to wait in line all day, and then all of a sudden not be allowed into the

stadium because they have backpacks.” Skidmore suggested several alternatives to bringing backpacks to the stadium, something that occurs frequently when students have class shortly before game time. “If you live on West, take it back to your room or take it back to your car. If you are not [living] on West, make contingency plans. Maybe just bring the books for your class,” Skidmore said. Officials will allow signs and other props that students usually use to cheer, but will check them for concealed weapons and other hazards. The new rule prohibiting re-entrance to the stadium will have its greatest impact on ticket holders, Skidmore said. Often, fans in the upper level of Cameron step outside to get a breath offresh air and escape the heat of the stadium. The new air conditioning system should alleviate these problems, he said.

Over the next several years he continued his rise as a leading examiner of American life with a series of articles and books. His first novel, The Bonfire of the Vanities, describing greed in the 1980s, was published in serial form every two weeks throughout 1984 and 1985 in magazine. It was ultimately published as a book in 1987, becoming another bestseller. Wolfe is currently working on another novel, this one about college life, and continues to be a widely heard voice on the direction of popular society. Through it all, he said, he’s kept his flare, including his white suits. “I will defer to academic robes, but I might have one underneath it. I wouldn’t put it past me,” he said.

Physicians said harmful side effects of ciprofloxacin can include severe diarrhea and tendon rupture, and they said a 60day course of treatment makes side effects more likely. “The harm t0... people taking these antibiotics that don’t need

ciprofloxacin, and that’s a drug that we really need,” Friedman said. “It’s extremely effective against a large number of bacteria.” Two other antibiotics—penicillin and doxycycline—prevent

anthrax infections, but anthrax strains developed for biological

warfare by the militaries of other countries are resistant to penicillin. No known strains are resistant to ciprofloxacin.

� BELL from page 1 The DNC’s involvement in the race surprised some observers. Ted Arrington, a professor of political science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, said national parties rarely endorse candidates in local races. What makes the decision more unusual is that Durham’s municipal elections are nonpartisan; although Bell is a Democrat and Tennyson is a Republican, their party affiliations will not appear on the ballot. “Generally, the party does not get involved very closely [in nonpartisan elections]... because the party’s name is not on the line,” Arrington said.“Generally, nothing gets made of it.” Arrington suggested national endorsements in local races are most common in major cities such as Boston or New York, in cases where the candidate could be a rising star in the party, or in situations where a national figure knows the candidate personally—though none ofthese seem to apply directly to Bell’s case. Edward Benson, chair of the Durham County Democratic Party, said he thought the national attention was due mainly to Bell’s exceptional strength as a candidate. “Beyond that, I think [national party leaders] are trying to reach out to grassroots parties across the country,” said Benson, who is also a columnist for The Chronicle. In his speech, McAuliffe said the committee’s move to work more closely with local parties has led to the election ofDemocratic mayors in all 10 races the DNC targeted so far this year. “Instead of just being a presidential campaign committee, instead of just being the political arm of the White House, we’re now a

full-service, one-stop shop, providing resources to help Democrats win up and down the ballot,” McAuliffe said in prepared remarks. Arrington suggested that one other reason for the endorsement might be its potential weight in a close race. “Durham is a very Democratic city, so it might make a difference there,” Arrington explained. In Durham County, 60 percent of registered voters are Democrats, while 22 percent are Republicans. Tennyson, however, said he thought McAuliffe’s endorsement would be less effective in a local election. “My thought is, does he know anything about Durham?” the mayor asked. “I guess I just feel like this is an election

where people will make their decision based on who they know and who they trust, and I expect that will be [on the advice of] local people,” Tennyson continued. At the conference, McAuliffe commended Bell’s fiscal responsibility and his views on such issues as fighting crime and improving education, while criticizing the current city government—and Tennyson’s leadership—-

for its troubled small-business loan program and its failure to collect water bills from many customers. McAuliffe also promised success for state Democrats in future national elections, such as the race to succeed Sen. Jesse Helms in 2002. “In 2004, [North Carolina] is going to be a Democratic state in the national campaign,” he added. “You have my word on that.” Following McAuliffe’s remarks, Bell spoke briefly, promising to reduce crime in the inner city, to provide more community activities for children and to be a more effective leader than Tennyson.

Using a treasure chest of maritime sources, students explore how different kinds of historical writing employ such sources, build an argument, and tell a story. The seminar will pick one particular voyage to focus on for a class project, and will collectively research and narrate its story. Janet Ewald teaches African and Trans-Atlantic history.

Focusing on Latin America in the 20th century, the class looks first at general theories of revolution, next examines the 1994 Zapatista peasant uprising in Mexico, and then turns to other revolutions in Nicaragua, Peru, Cuba, and Mexico. Students will create and share an anthology of narratives that apply the best theories to the Latin America’s revolutionary movements.

Using Duke library archives and a unique database available on the “Digital Durham” website, the seminar trains students intensively in research methods and in fundamentals of technology for website construction and use. Duke students will mentor eighth-graders in researching Durham’s history. Historian Trudi Abel is a Senior Fellow at Duke’s Center for Teaching, Learning and Writing.

Last week, in response to numerous NCAA rule-violation allegations regarding University of Kentucky football, the Kentucky athletic department set up a special toll-free number, 1-866-275-CATS, to call with information regarding past and current violations in all varsity sports. I know what you're thinking: With Kentucky's gridiron team posting a dismal 1-6 record, how in the world did they violate recruiting procedures? Why are they breaking rules for mediocre athletes? Seriously, we expect these kinds of mass violations from a top-tier school that's trying to maintain its monopoly over the best athletes, but from the only team in the Southeastern Conference worse than Vanderbilt? We may not know the answers soon, as the hotline is not yet up-and-running. Until it is, we can ruminate about what it will sound like: "Thank you for calling the Cats Comply hotline.

Let's hear it for the boys, DisMissed, MTV's latest love-tnangle love-child, recently became the first game show to feature gay guys fighting for a date. Although MTV strongly considered opening up its first dating game show, Singled Out, to gay couples, it vetoed the idea in 1994 for reasons known only to MTV execs and Jenny McCarthy. DisMissed embraces the same-sex date and flaunts it for all it’s worth, with drool-worthy results. Now in its first season, DisMissed has no qualms about finding boys on the same bus. The show's formula works for couples of any orientation, taking two wannabe Cassanovas and putting them on one date. The contestants compete through looks, attitude and under-the-table action for the affections of a chosen girl or guy. The episode with the gay guys (so far the only one aired with same-sex contestants) featured a kissing contest in a sushi booth. Other liaisons caught on tape show strawberry sucking and a hot tub romp. No doubt MTV wanted to tone down the action for its gay viewers, who are notoriously conservative about sexuality and the media. Anyway, whoever wins gets to stay on the date, and the DisMissed is let go for the night.

ck-or-Trsat Trivia

With Halloween right around the corner, it's time to brush up on your trick-or-treating skills because, let's face it, there's nothing the average family likes to see more than a drunk college kid wearing a dirty bed sheet claiming to be a ghost and begging for juju fruits (you jackass!). Halloween Magazine to the rescue. Take their online quiz (www.halloweenmagazine.com) to learn all sorts of useful tips on the art of shameless candy grubbing. Question one introduces three houses and asks you to identify the one that is safe for visiting. They suggest the one with a bright shining porch light. However, upon closer review, it's evident that the house next door, although dark, is obviously bigger, meaning the people inside are richer and more likely to give you better eats. Go for the fattest payday. The other house looks like one that only hands out toothbrushes and boxes of raisins. That's a good way to find a flaming bag of poo on your porch. Score: '0 for 1. Question two says an old man wants you to stop trickor-treating and help him find his lost cat. This one's a nobrainer. The guy looks older than dirt, he's wearing a bolo tie and a fedora, and his damned kitty is missing—of course you help him —he's everybody's grandpa! Nope. The answer is "Tell him no and walk away." That's a little insensitive. It's a shame, too, because now he looks really sad, and it's not like he wouldn't just break a hip if he tried anything anyway. Score: 0 for 2. Question three says you are hungry and can't decide whether to eat some candy you've collected or wait until you get home. 1 don't know about you, but I'm eating some freakin' candy. Wrong again. I'm sure ol' gramps from question two probably stuck a few razor blades in your tootsie pops. Why not? It's your fault his cat died. Final score: 0 for 3. OK, so we failed, but those were trick questions. The real test is this Halloween. Good luck, godspeed and save us some of those juju fruits. —By David Walters

MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE: "By the power of Grayskull, I pop a cap in Skeletor!!!"

Here at Recess, we get a lot of CDs in the mail. Some are good, some are bad and some just scare the piss out of us. To spare our readers and our- . selves the torture of reviewing Norwegian death metal bands, we add them to the dusty stacks-o-crap against the office wall. There they sit, confined to their own special category of spiked-bracelet-wearing and pagan-beast-battling satanic suckiness. But this week, in honor of our favorite holiday, the music editors of Recess decided to dust off the cobwebs and unleash the hounds of hell so that you too may know the horrors that reside In the Recess rejects pile. So hide your Hanson and put away your DMB—we 're going over to the dark side. Molly Hatchet Kingdom of XII A Southern-fried scare 20 years in the making, the members of Molly Hatchet are still masters of the mullet... and down-home country-roots rock. Judging from the artwork, everyone is workin' the steel-clad Norse warrior vibe. Maybe Molly just never got over its fixation with the Masters of the Universe, or maybe the sweaty, ripple-chested war god look is coming back, knows? Despite the He-Man vs. Skeletor see adorning the cover, Molly Hatchet is less con cerned with Armageddon or the final showdo against evil than a certain little north/south s mish that took place about 150 years ago. Th band's message to the world: "The South ha risen again!!" With hits like "Cornbread Mafia" and "Angel in Dixie," it's easy to see who's calling the shots and keeping the rednecks rockin'. It ain't your average skull-and-b slaughter show, but it ain't pretty either.

Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force War to End All Wars From the looks of the album cover, you'd think Yngwie spends his spare time jousting with the undead. But according to the Maestro's website, his wily antics run more along the lines of riding his motorbike through the halls of his high school in Sweden at just 15. And you thought the Swedes were pansies! Yngwie was born around the same time Beatles made it big in the States, but, according t his bio, "it would be another 20 years before a lan tousel-haired Swede with hungry eyes would stan the music world on its head once again." Of cours First there was Lennon, and then there was Yngwie. Besides being Sweden's answer to the Beatles, he's also a reincarnation of Flendrix, with his website claiming "The day Jimi Hendrix died, the guitar-playing Yngwie was born." Not to mention a lyrical genius. On "Prophet of Doom," Mr. Malmsteen proclaims, "Prophet of doom/ hear the thunder/Thor’s wonder/ of doom of doom of doom of doom of doom of doom of doom." You get the idea —it's all about doom. And Thor.

Killer Cabbies Besides having the weirdest name in indie rock, Death Cab for Cutie are also known for making 1998 debut album, Something About Airplanes, got attention from just about everyone, demonstrating the band's talent for making songs that couple poignant, rainyday poetry with sunny pop melodies. The Seattle-based foursome just released their third LR Photo Album, and are currently touring the U.S., with a stop at Cat's Cradle set for Nov. 3. Recess music editor Kelly McVicker caught up with drummer Michael Schorr earlier this week to talk about the new album and find out how the hell they got such a silly name.

some damned good music. Their

How's the tour going so far? It's been going great. We played in Toronto the other night to over 300 people. We'd never been there, so it was pretty cool.

You guys probably get asked this question a lot; but I'm going to ask it anyway: where did the band's name come from? There's a band from the late '6os called The Bonzo Dog Band, and they were in the Beatles' film Magical Mystery Tour, and they played a lounge song called "Death Cab for Cutie."

On Photo Album, you guys do a cover of Bjork's "All is Full of Love" which doesn't really seem like an obvious step for ydu guys. Whose idea was it to cover that? We're ail Bjork fans, and it just kind of came about. Before tour, we always throw around ideas for covers because it's totally fun to do, and Ben suggested that one since structurewise, it's a pretty easy song to learn. He learned the melodies, and it just kind of morphed into something really great. What's your favorite song on Photo Album7 My favorite song? That's a good question.... Personally, I really like how "Movie Script Ending" turned out, and "Kaleidoscope" sounds great. I don't know.... This being the first record that I'm on as a drummer, I love the whole thing, and I'm pretty proud of everything that I did. I mean, I didn't screw up a whole bunch.

On the song "Why You'd Want to Live Here" it sounds like you guys really hate L.A. Did you have a bad experience there as a band? That's not really anything that happened directly to us. I think it's just an overall flavor of Los

Angeles. Whenever we go there, we have a great time; I mean, L.A. has some great qualities about it, and I think the song kind of explains itself in that way, but it's nothing personal—it's not like we all got mugged or something.

Who do you think is making really good indie rock right now? Well, there's a band that we played with in Seattle called Aveo and they're really great. They kind of have a Smiths thing going on. I don't know.... That's a really good question. Clinic is amazing. I don't know if you'd call that indie, because indie doesn't really exist. What's in your CD player right now? I'm listening to the new Stereolab. I've also been listening to the new Shiner. I listen to that about once a day. What's the best album ever? Best album ever? Gosh, that's an almost impossible question. One of my all-time favorites is Charles Mingus "Mingus Mingus Mingus" because it kind of opened my eyes and ears to jazz and stuff. That's just one of hundreds of albums that I would probably say I can't live long without. What are you going to be for Halloween? I'm going to be a rock drummer playing a show in Baltimore.

Catch Michael and the rest of the boys at Cat's Cradle on Saturday, Nov. 3. Warning: Being the sensitive indie rock types that they are, there'll definitely be a few tearjerkers in the set. So bring some kleenex.

Tonight, the two-week run of Our Country's Good begins. Earlier this week, Recess arts editor Cary Hughes had the opportunity to chat with the play's director, Jeff West, to find out, among other things, what to expect from this production. West is a parttime acting instructor at Duke who has directed three previous plays in Reynolds Theater and is also a freelance actor, director and producer. As a director, why have you chosen Our Country's Good? I was in a production of Our Country's Good in 1993. East Carolina has a professional summer theater company, and my friend who runs that theater asked me to come down and play three roles in this play.... I said, "Three roles, good grief! Sounds like fun.'.'.. So, for the past four or five years. I've been proposing it as a play we should do here at Duke. This year, Richard [Riddell, director of theater studies! decided it was time to do it Luckily, he let me do it.... I’m pleased to be doing the show because it's about the value of art, the value of theater. So how did the story of the first play in the Botany Bay Colony (modem day Sydney) become a piece of theater? ...So what happened was in 1988, Max StaffordClark was the artistic director of The Royal Court Theater in London was doing a production of The Recruiting Officer, and a friend of his had just given him The Playmaker and said, "Read this book." So he read it and saw, in fact, that was the play they did in Australia. He had a playwright on staff at the

RECESS

Time—in Britain they have the luxury of doing that sometime—and her name isTimberlake Wertenbaker, she's an ex-patriate American and a very distinguished playwright. And he commissioned her to adapt Thomas Keneally's novel, The Playmaker, into this play, Our Country's Good. She had this wonderful luxury of having this group of actors workshop for her.... She got to have all these actors at her disposal as a tool to create character and dialogue. So maybe that's why it's unique. Another reason, of course, it is unique is that these are the stories of these people. They are stories of incredible hardship and depravation. These people were eight-and-a-half months at sea, during that time—most of the time—the convicts... were beaten, they were hung, they were whipped. They were treated like animals. What kind of work have you done with your actors, or had them do on their own, to prepare them for these roles? We did quite a bit of research. We spent two full days of rehearsal, which is unusual in a rehearsal process like this. We spent two full nights of rehearsal with our wonderful dramaturge, Dave Worster, working with us. 1 have about 15 sources. We really wanted to equate them with 18th century England first of all, the prison system, 18th century transportation of the moors—of the criminal class it was called—because a lot of them play the convicts.... We really wanted to get them immersed, if you will, with that culture, at that time as much as we could.

What should audiences expect from the

production? It's not easy; it's not an easy play. It has a lot of scenes: it has 22 scenes. But it's something which I think is really worth seeing, especially in terms of recent events. Because to me, the conditions that brought on the misery of these people come from a narrow-mindedness that is very similar to the narrow-mindedness that caused the catastrophe on Sept. 11. A refusal to accept any other point of view, a belief in only one way—our way is the only way. That kind of narrow-mindedness is anti-art because art is about expressing yourself. Finally, where does the title Our Country's Goodfit into this? There was a prologue that was supposedly written by a convict. Actually it was delivered in the real first production of the play. And actually they found later it was written by someone in London. It talks about "We left our country for our country's good." This idea that we are the criminal class, so in order to make our country better, we were shipped out. So, it's very ironic and sad. And one of the prisoners in the play wants to put this prologue onto the play instead of Farquhar's. The director of the play finally has to refuse him because it's so political, and there are so many people against them. But he tells them you have to make sacrifices in the theater; it's like a small republic. It's a wonderful thing. That's where [the title] comes from, that they were expelled from the country for their country's good.

As you wander with parents in tow through

the Bryan Center this weekend, expect to be surrounded by sound—the chatter of coffee breaks at Alpine Atrium, the buzz of buying sweatshirts at the Duke University Store, the din of old Berlin. Pardonne-moi? Yes, the musical, Grand Hotel, based in 1930s Germany, runs this weekend in the Bryan Center's Shaefer Theater. The musical is presented by Hoof 'n' Horn, one of Duke's completely student-run theatre companies. Every part of the show, both onstage and behind the scenes, is the creation of Duke students. ’"This is a great way for parents to see the many creative opportunities for the Duke student body," said cast member Helena Clauss. "Plus, [the show] has something for everyone. There's definitely a balance between singing, dancing and the storylines." Indeed, from

Clauss's compelling voice to the cheery dancing of "the Jimmys" (Jeanne Rittschof & Margaret Mash) to the poignant charm of Bret Jasper's Otto Kringelein, the cast's many talents appear within all areas of the performance.

a

period pi««.

Grand Hotel's provocative plot features characters struggling with their own declines: a past-her-prime ballerina, a dying man, a baron desperate for cash, a secretary desperate for fame. These declines contrast the laissez-faire luxuries of their surroundings—the Grand Hotel of Berlin, 1928. These emotional extremes create a dynamic tension within the score, as melancholy melodies are cut with sharp-cheddar-cheesy dance numbers. The ensemble cast successfully intertwines the campy superficiality of the late 1920s with a sense of dark foreboding. Unfortunately, they are not as successful at conveying the story, as critical lines, both sung and spoken, are lost to a lack of projection, enunciation or thickened European accents. (However, it should be noted that most of the accents performed are quite decent). Despite these shortcomings, Grand Hotel is a shining example of Hoof 'n' Horn's long-standing tradition of student-based musicals. The production serves as a testament to the participants' dedication, ingenuity and passion for theater. And with Grand Hotel, their efforts and talent are truly apparent. —By Beth lams

&ir&co-Komm C-laZOcx I recently toured the small, sophisticated and ecumenical collection of ancient Greek and Roman art that is the Classics gallery at the DUMA. The exhibit opened last week and is curated by senior Bobby Jones. Ranging from the early Iron age (1000-700 8.C.) to third-century Roman art, most of the pieces on display in the Classics collection are pottery in the form of drinking cups, amphorae and religious oil containers (iekythoi). A good portion of the gallery, as well, has bits of statuary and terra cotta figures from all over the ancient world—a great one in particular is a drunken Bacchus helped along by one of his followers, no doubt crapulent himself. Smack dab in the middle of the gallery sits the showpiece of the collection, a giant crater (a vessel used to mix water and wine—the Greeks never drank their wine pure) painted by Polygnotos, a famous and successful pottery painter—this pot is worth well over a million dollars. From the fifth century 8.C., the crater

depicts Triptolemus, Persephone and her mother Demeter preparing to grant the knowledge of agriculture to humanity. The opposite side of the pot, no less interesting, shows three Athenian youths, epitomizing the Athenian cultural ideals of the period: music and athletics. In addition to these, there is a charming collection of little trinkets and odd figures, such as a little bronze vignette of Odysseus returning to his wife, Penelope—neither of whom look like they've -been entirely faithful. Though it is small, there is much to see and absorb in the Classics collection and, visiting it, I learned that the ancients lived life, sans planes, trains and automobiles, much like us—their art echoed their lives. Whether somber, playful or violent, it was a mirror in which they could see themselves and, two thousand years later, a looking-glass just as much to the ancients as it is to ourselves. —By Bodkin Vachon

To Hell and Back From HelPs spin on Jack the Ripper is trapped in purgatory.

Somehow

in my more than a dozen years of watching movies with ratings higher than G, From Hell is the first film I've ever seen about Jack the Ripper. I'm not exactly sure how this has happened, considering that the infamous late-19th-century London serial killer has appeared on the silver screen many times before and is about as recognizable as the Son of Sam and Ted Bundy. Unfortunately, I'm not entirely satisfied with my introduction to the Jack the Ripper legend. From Hell, the Hughes brothers' new version of the classic story, is a good movie, but it is also flawed. For everything that it does right—its tight script, stunning setting and strong acting—it comes up short elsewhere. The story of Jack the Ripper (previously unclear to me) is that in the late 19th century in the East End of London, a man viciously murders five prostitutes in a habitual and By Alex highly skilled series of attacks over a couple of weeks. The acts shock London, and investigations by the police (and in the past century "Ripperologists") point toward involvement with the royal family. In From Hell, we follow Johnny Depp's fictional police inspector Abberline, who uses both his astute detective skills and opium-induced visions in his investigations. The latter aspect is the film's first hiccup. Apparently, Abberline sees the Ripper's victims a day before their murders actually take place. To begin with, the concept that using GRADE: opium can help you see the future is B hard to buy (the stuff can't be that good). In addition, it seems like the inspector's visions are random, involuntary and essentially a mere side effect, whereas the story should make us think that he is purposefully smoking up so that he can advance his investigation. I do wonder whether the Motion Picture Association of America played a role in this pitfall. I am certainly not a proponent of smoking opium, but you've got to believe that the Hughes brothers had to leave a lot of the scenes involving drugs on the cutting room floor.

Along the same lines, I wonder how heavily the MPAA restricted the level of gore in From Hell. Although it was wise not to show in too grisly detail the aftereffect of the Ripper's deeds, the violence itself is stuck in limbo between over-the-top and simply not enough. To some extent, we want more. If Jack is such a badass, let's see him be such a badass. Then again, in such tense times, the lack of extreme violence is a bit comforting. While the gore ratio is a bit unsettling, the presence of Heather Graham in From Hell is even more so. Graham, the all-American beauty from Boogie Nights and Austin Powers 2, plays one of the prostitutes the Ripper is targeting. Graham is simply too pure for this role. Her bright red hair and blue dress make her stick out like a sore thumb in the dark and foggy East End of London. She is about 10 times better looking Garinger than her friends and can't maintain an English accent. Even worse, the chemistry between Graham and Depp is incredibly strained. However, From Hell does have its strong points. Depp is brilliant as always, as is his colleague, played by Robbie Coltrane. The investigation is intense, scary and strikes all the right nerves. And even though the setting is mostly seen in the dark reaches of the night, the re-creation of old-time London is incredible. I'm not sure how the ending will play with Ripper purists, though I've heard the Hughes brothers say that they picked the most common theory as to who the Ripper is (the film is based on a comic book series by Allan Moore and Eddie Campbell). The unveiling of Jack worked for me, though for others it might come too far out of left field. And ultimately, the tone works well. Some may question why the Hughes brothers would do a period piece set in London. But considering their previous works, like Menace II Society and Dead Presidents —two films about the reality of street violence in inner cities—the legend of Jack the Ripper's terror in the East End seems all too appropriate.□

Football poised to take out Vandy New York recruit

visits Duke today

By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

The winless Duke football team is more confident than ever to end its losing streak, the longest in the country, as it prepares to face Vanderbilt at 1 p.m. Saturday in Wallace Wade Stadium. “I think the whole team’s outlook for this game is now or never,” linebacker Ryan Fowler said. “This is probably our best chance of the year to win. “It’s now just clicking in everybody’s head that it’s go time. I think people are starting to realize what has to be done.” Winless in 19 games, the team is as hungry for a win as it has ever been. “There are no words to explain how important it is to win one game,” defensive end Charles Porter said. “Everybody wants to win. We want to win, our fans want to win, our friends want to win. That's what we're concentrating on.” Running back Chris Douglas, who recorded his I,oooth career rushing yard against Maryland last week, feels that there has been a different attitude in practice going into this week, one that he hopes will carry over into the game. “The intensity is here,” Douglas said. “We’re ready to play. We feel like this is the week.” With all this enthusiasm for Duke to get its first win, coach Carl Franks reminds everyone that this is a big game for Vanderbilt as well. “It’s going to be one heck of a football game,” Franks said. “I guarantee you Vanderbilt feels the exact same way, and See FOOTBALL on page 21

Parents will not be the only esteemed guests on campus this weekend. Combo guard Caitlin Howe will be visiting the women’s basketball team Friday and Saturday. Howe, ranked 10th in the most recent All-Star Girls Report rankings, has narrowed her list of prospective schools down to two: Georgia and Duke. The Fairport, N.Y. native spent last weekend visiting Georgia, whom Howe says is leading for her services. When asked if Duke had offered her a scholarship, she replied, “Not in so many words, but yes.” If Goestenkors offers, Howe will give Duke very

serious consideration. Howe averaged 25.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.6 steals and three steals per game as a junior at Fairport High School, before tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee. She was cleared to return to the court again in August after rehabilitation in the wake of arthroscopic surgery in March. Howe is a talented perimeter player who can either distribute from the point or score from the wing. But her physical gifts and skills are not what the senior believes set her apart. “My strengths are my leadership and the passion I play with,” she said. Both attributes would be valued highly by the Blue Devils, who graduated senior leaders Georgia Schweitzer and Rochelle Parent this spring. Howe would play alongside young, passionate and athletic players such as Alana Beard, Sheana Mosch and kiss Tilhs. Duke’s stable of athletic, slashing guards lacks a standout point guard. This season, both Beard and Mosch are being trained and converted to play the point. “What [Goestenkors] is looking for is, first of all, a point guard—which I am—and also an outside §hooter,” Howe said.

Duke’s all-time shutout list.

Not so fast, my friend. Just when it seemed the women’s soccer team had its back up against the wall, it came up huge when it counted most. The Blue Devils responded to the possibility of not getting an NCAA tournament berth with a victory Wednesday night for their first ACC win of the season over N.C. State. The win sets up the team for a big showdown Saturday night versus No. 21 Wake Forest in Koskinen Stadium at 7 p.m. The Blue Devils (6-8, 1-5 in the ACC) needed just Carly Fuller’s goal to finish off the Wolfpack (7-7, 0-5) after another perfect performance by sophomore goalkeeper Thora Helgadottir. Helgadottir turned away four shots en route to her second shutout of the season and put herself just one shutout

The 1-0 win keeps alive Duke’s chance to squeeze into the NCAA Tournament, which recently decided to expand to a 64-team format. Most ofthe players feel two wins in the always competitive ACC would be enough to gamer a berth, but that would first require the Blue Devils to go through a tough Demon Deacon team. With two games left on the schedule, Duke would have to win both to get to the critical even won-

loss record, which the NCAA selection committee will most likely use as a filter. “We have got to win the next two games and probably two in the tournament to get to .500,” Church said. “If we get to .500, we will get a bid because of our strength of schedule. See WOMEN’S SOCCER on page 21 �

teammates as the Blue Devils celebrated their biggest victory in 2001. The euphoria was short lived, however, as the game official decided North’s shot had been dangerously high. Duke’s coaches, players and fans all objected to the controversial ruling. Regardless, the goal was nullified, and play resumed. Minutes later, Wake Forest’s Kelly Doton sent a shot into the bottom left corner of the goal with 10:36 remaining in overtime, giving the Demon Deacons the win. The shot came off Wake Forest’s

12th corner of the match. “Everyone knows in our hearts that we could have won or should have won that game,” freshman Chrissy Murphy said. “It was definitely the biggest letdown of the season.” Duke played an exceptional game against Wake Forest (11-3, 3-1 in the ACC), winners of two shutout victories against the vaunted Tar Heels. The game began with the Demon Deacons in control, scoring early and threatening often to take a 2-0 lead. Duke senior goalie Hallie Smith kept the game close with a bevy of saves, ending the game with 10. The Blue Devils were rejuvenated

after Smith called a huddle following Wake’s second goal. Duke’s defense picked up enough intensity to get its offense involved in the game, and with 15:19 remaining in the half, Murphy cut Wake Forest’s lead in half with a blast into the right corner of the goal. It was Murphy’s first goal of her promising Duke career. “I was in the circle at the right place and the right time,” Murphy said. “I saw a passing lane and just moved, gave it a pop and put it into the corner of the goal.” The score remained in Wake Forest’s favor well through halftime. Duke’s deficit was eliminated at the 15:22 mark, when Murphy again stepped up for the Blue Devils. “I was at the top of the circle with the ball when the goalie came out and rushed me,” she said. Murphy was tripped by the goalkeeper while senior Liz Bateman took the ball out from under the goalie, knocking it loose. An open goal was left for a sprawled out Murphy, who knocked it in while laying on the ground. Unfortunately for the Blue Devils, overtime would not end on such a positive note. Despite Duke’s loss, however, Tchou was very proud ofher team. “We put two halves together against the No. 3 team in the country,” she said. “I am so proud to be a part of this program and coach these kids. Their work ethic is terrific, they are learning every day and developing some amazing character.”

Volleyball hopes to avenge Cross country teams head loss to UNC this weekend to ACCs in Clemson, S.C. By MICHAEL JACOBSON The Chronicle When the volleyball team (16-2, 8-2 in the ACC) takes to the road this weekend, it will run up against two teams going in

different directions. Friday night’s venture to Chapel Hill to face UNC poses the biggest challenge of the season for both squads. The Tar Heels (17-4, 9-1) hold a one-game lead over the second-place Blue Devils as the conference schedule begins to wind down. A regular-season ACC championship guarantees a No. 1 seed in the conference tournament, held Nov. 15-18 in Tallahassee, Fla. “This is a very big match, but every match in the ACC is big,” Duke coach Jolene Nagel said. Anyone is capable of beating anyone else.” The Blue Devils, winners oftheir last five contests, seek to avenge a loss to UNC last month. The loss was Duke’s first of two on the season. “Carolina played great against us,” Nagel said. “We were very disappointed with that loss. We’ve seen tapes of them against other teams, and they haven’t played at the level that they played against us.” Duke may be going to Chapel Hill at just the right time. The Tar Heels suffered their first and only conference loss of the season in their last outing Sunday at Maryland. Prior to their defeat at the hands of the Terrapins, UNC ran off a string of 13 straight wins, including all nine of their conference matches. At times, the

Tar Heels seemed invincible, only once needing to go to the fifth and final game to close out a match. Whether they are able to rebound against the Blue Devils, ranked much more highly than Maryland, is up for debate. “[The Tar Heels are] going to come out with their best game against us,” Nagel said. “A loss affects every team differently. It took us out of our game [when the team lost earlier this season], maybe it will do the same for them.” Regardless of Friday’s outcome, Saturday’s match against N.C. State might prove to be a letdown. With an overall record of just 5-13, the Wolfpack are not quite ready to contend for the ACC title any time soon. However, after suffering 10 consecutive losses, N.C. State might be poised to assume the role of giant killers.

“We have to stay mentally tough,”

Nagel said. “We have to tend to business. We’re confident in our abilities.”

Just as the Blue Devils have done all season, they need to take this weekend one game at a time. While N.C. State does not pose a huge threat, their one ACC win came against Maryland, the same team that knocked off UNC last week. “We’ve been preparing for both teams this week,” Nagel said of her approach. “Every match is a must-win.” The Blue Devils control their own destiny in terms of seeding for the conference tournament. A victory over UNC tonight will put them into a tie for first place and a better overall record than the Tar Heels gives Duke the No. 1 seed.

He was Duke’s first All-American basketball player and was an All-American shortstop as well. He was one of the first Duke athletes elected to the Duke Hall of Fame in 1975.

MEDICAL CENTER PARKING GARAGE, DURHAM Irate about having to move their cars from the Blue Zone so that the mighty Blue Devils could draw 10,000 Vanderbilt fans to see which team could win its first Division I-A game, the Grid Pickers decided to take their parents and picket the parking garage, where dispossessed Duke students had to deposit their SUVs.

tics are fairly similar. The biggest difference is in turnovers, where the Commodores have seven and Dupe has 19. For Duke to win, it cannot turn the ball over and commit penalties at important times.

When Vanderbilt Has the Ball

In the season opener, Vanderbilt gave up 300 rushing yards, while losing to Middle Tenn. State. In its most recent game, Vanderbilt surrendered 356 rushing yards to South Carolina. Chris Douglas should be able to maintain his proficient running attack.

Brent Garber and Trey McDonald are showing more confidence every week, and in turn, Carl Franks is showing more confidence in them. Duke’s ordinarily shaky coverage team should not be challenged by Ronald Hatcher and his 5.3 yards per return.

Greg Zolman declined to discuss Duke, saying he did not want to risk the bad luck. Frankly, Zolman should not worry so much. Last year, he torched Duke for 266 yards and he now has an additional year of experience.

Running back Lew Thomas had been outstanding up until two weeks ago. On successive weeks, the senior was shut down by Georgia and South Carolina. But against Duke’s vulnerable run defense, Thomas should return to his form of earlier in the season.

•"

Joe Webb is a fine punter, averaging over 40 yards per kick. Vanderbilt’s field goal kicking is much shakier, going just 3-7 on the year. The Commodore coverage units are good, but they will be constantly tested by Chris Douglas and Ronnie Hamilton.

Realistically, if Duke loses Saturday it will finish 0-11 for the second straight season. Vanderbilt, on the other hand, is looking at its best chance for a win over a Division IA opponent. Therefore, desperation is likely to play a role for both teams. Vanderbilt has been able to play competitive football against most of its formidable SEC opponents, while Duke has been blown out of all but one ACC matchup. Turnovers and other mental mistakes have often been Duke’s downfall this year and this should remain true against a relatively mistake-free Vanderbilt team; Vanderbilt wins 27-23. —Compiled by Tyler Rosen

Dockery expresses confidence about upcoming ACT � DOCKERY from page 15

the nation by ESPN.com, Dockery averaged 21 points, eight rebounds, nine assists and five steals during his junior year at Julian. He was recruited by several top basketball programs, and according to recruiting analyst Clint Jackson, for good reason. “He is a great ballhandler,” Jackson said. “He is a sound leader who passes the ball really well. He has good vision and maintains his composure up at the top of the key. He is a good athlete, the type of guy who can dunk in transition or pull up offthe dribble and hit a 15-footer.” Dockery’s versatility has earned him recognition in high school, including a spot on the North squad for the USA Basketball’s 2001 Men’s Youth Development Festival this past summer. Dockery feels like he gained a lot from the program. “I learned college plays and how to run an offense—l felt like I was in college,” Dockery said. Durand Walker, the team’s assistant coach, agrees. He thinks that the 6-foot-2 Dockery is ready to excel in the world of ACC basketball. “He is physically tough,” Walker said. “Physically, he is prepared to play at [the collegiate] level.” Even before he sets foot in Durham, however, Dockery will have experience with one of his teammates: Fellow Chicago native and future Blue Devil Michael Thompson was a teammate of Dockery’s at the developmental program. “I started talking to him more after the USA Developmental Festival—talking to him on the phone,” Dockery said. “I know how he plays since I’ve been playing against him since freshman year. I can’t wait to play with him.” But Thompson is not the only recruit who will be joining Dockery in Durham next year. Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski’s incoming class of six freshman, including five from most Top 100 lists, is considered to be one of the all-time best, a reputation which Dockery thinks is well deserved. “I feel great right now,” he said. “Shavlik [Randolph], J.J. Redick—l know it’s a great class. I feel good about the class, and I can’t wait to get down there.”

His fellow recruits appear to be equally excited about playing with him. After prized recruit Shavlik Randolph became the capstone ofthe class, he acknowledged that Dockery’s presence played no small part in his decision. “The thing I noticed about him is that he can do everything,” Randolph said. “He can pass, he can dribble [and] he can shoot. That had a lot to do with my decision because he was going to be my point guard. I wanted to make sure that we would have chemistry. I knew we would because he always finds the open man instead of trying to knock down the shot. He’s a real smart point guard, and I really love playing with him.” With the almost assured departures of Jason Williams and Carlos Boozer, Randolph and Dockery may be playing together from day one. Being the heir to Williams’ throne may create a nervous situation for most players, but not Dockery. “If I step in right away, I think I have the experience I would need,” he said. “I know I am going to work hard, and I hope I can step in.” Jackson agreed that Dockery will easily be the teamoriented player that thrives in Krzyzewski’s system. He compared Dockery to current Blue Devil Chris Duhon in terms of looking to pass to an open teammate before shooting the ball himself.

“I think Dockery is more of a ball distributor than a scoring point guard,” Jackson said. While Jackson and other analysts are filled with praise for Dockery’s basketball abilities, his academic worries make some Duke fans nervous. The NCAA’s Proposition 48 requires student-athletes to score at least a 15 on the ACT or sit out a year, Dockery currently has a 15, but is taking the test again Saturday. “I’m not even worried about it right now,” Dockery said. “I have been working hard, and I know that God is with me.” Walker isn’t worried either. After all, he notes, someone who knows a thing or two about college basketball is

the one who offered Dockery a scholarship. “Who would dare question Coach Krzyzewski’s choice of point guard?” he said. “He has his Ph.D. in this game.”

Robbins, Taggart lead Wake Forest � WOMEN’S SOCCER from page 16 We are still alive, but we’ve got two tough games ahead of us.” The win was crucial in not only getting Duke off the snide of zero ACC wins, but also in letting the team potentially avoid playing top-seeded North Carolina in the first round of the ACC tournament. With the way the team has battled every other ACC team this season, the players feel they have a legitimate chance to meet their archrivals in the ACC championship game. Wake Forest (8-5-1, 3-2) will be coming off three days of rest following its most recent match, a 2-1 win over regional rival Charlotte. The Demon Deacons first got on the board with a goal by senior forward Emily

YOAV LURIE/THE CHRONICLE

RYAN FOWLER and the Duke defense will look to shut down Greg Zolman and the Commodore offense

Vanderbilt not taking Duke lightly FOOTBALL from page 15 there’s no reason they shouldn’t. We better make sure we know what we’re going to do, and come out with some intensity. I guarantee Vanderbilt is looking at this [game] as one they can win.” Vanderbilt has a very strong offense, which is ranked fifth in the lethally strong Southeastern Conference. The Commodores’ attack, however, is not option-oriented, an offensive style which tore Duke apart last week in its 59-17 loss to Maryland last weekend. “They might put [the option] in after last week.” Franks half-jokingly said. “But they have enough misdirection stuff that they’ll probably just stick with their plan.”

The 1-5 Commodores are not taking Duke lightly, despite its losing streak. “Duke is a team that will do anything to win—l am sure ofthat,” Vanderbilt coach Woody Widenhofer said. “They haven’t won a game in a long time, and I do know that we have to get a whole lot better this week to go down there and beat Duke.” Vanderbilt’s sole win of the season came against Richmond. But a win is a win, and Duke is searching for one of its own. The Blue Devils are poised to get it. “Watching film today, I feel as though we have a great opportunity ahead of us this weekend,” Porter said. “We go into each game thinking we have the opportunity to win, but Vanderbilt especially. I think we match up well against them.”

Taggart, who became Wake Forest’s all-time leading scorer in school history with 29 goals in her career. Duke will also have to contend with sophomore defender A.B. Robbins, who was recently named to the Soccer America Team of the Week with her two goals in the Deacons’ win over No. 19 Florida State. In last year’s contest, the Blue Devils scored with less than two minutes remaining in the match to steal a 1-0 victory from the Demon Deacons. Thensophomore Alison Sanders punched in the only goal of the game, while Thora Helgadottir picked up her second career shutout. Should Duke win Saturday night, the Blue Devils would have the chance to finish as a .500 team, despite losing so many close games all season long. The deciding game would be Nov. 3, when Duke faces Vanderbilt, the former team of current Blue Devil coach Robbie Church. The match will mark Church’s first return to Nashville, Tenn. since accepting the Duke job in July. “These girls really wantto be in the tournament, and they think they deserve it,” said Church, who coached the Commodores to a 21-19-1 record during his twoyear stint. “We may not be a top-20 team, but we are a top-64 team. It’s definitely a goal we can accomplish.”

The Chronicle One governing body DSG could serve therole of making policy and allocating funds while the Union programs

In

order to obtain funding, student groups must navigate a nebulous system in which multiple groups—including Campus Council, Duke Student Government and the Duke University Union —allocate money. Fortunately, Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta has realized this inefficiency and has proposed reforming the system. Although he has not made any decisions, the discussions thus far seem to lend too much credit to the Campus Council model while downplaying the importance of a directly elected body. Campus Council lacks the mandate for power over funding. Its leaders are elected by representatives, who are elected by quad representatives, who are elected by students. There is little rationale for giving this organization significant authority over funds, when students already directly elect representatives to DSG. The suggestion that student funding be allocated by one central body certainly has merit; such a move would eliminate the current confusion and overlap in the system. Students —the ones who provide and use the funding—should remain leaders ofthis group, but faculty and administrators should also be able to offer input on decisions. An oversight group, with good knowledge ofthe issues and experience, should make final allocation decisions, creating a more objective and simpler process for student groups seeking money. One possible placement for this funding board is under DSG, which could wisely choose to create a vice presidential position as the board’s chair; that way, students would have a say in the distribution of their funds, as opposed to the current appointment system under the Student Organizations Finance Committee. DSG would be the ideal organization to provide the policy for funding what students want. Campus Council does serve an important role as the voice of quadrangles. This role, though, may be better served under DSG’s domain. Similar to the Duke University Student Dining Advising Committee, which proved to be a potent voice in the ARAMARK discussions of last spring, a DSG residential committee could provide a voice for residential quadrangles across the University. The Union would then serve as the organizer of large events, much as it does now. The group has shown its ability to coordinate large programming projects in the past and serve the entire University community; it may even be prudent for the Union to take up all programming, planning events such as Devil’s Eve and Last Day of Classes. Still, DSG is not perfect, and before placing even more authority under its domain, the group must strive to address constituent concerns more than it has in the past. With additional funding power, the group’s leaders must constantly gauge student interests in how to allocate money. Regardless of the outcome, that these discussions are even taking place is fortunate, after a history of inefficiency and overlap in student governance. The future could now hold a system that serves students needs better than it has in the past.

few issues regarding course evaluations. First, we would like to express our gratitude to the faculty and to the University administration for working so closely with Duke Student Government to implement a web-based, student-accessible course evaluations system. Students now have access to the course evaluation data they provide to the faculty and the administration. A wealth of quantitative data is contained on the website to allow students to view different elements of a course. This data comes with a significant statistical component, such as mean, median, distribution ofresponses, major responses, non-major responses, etc., to allow students to accurately gauge the quantitative data dis-
