Few schools Gamecocks knock off Blue Devils cancel New Era contract By NICK CHRISTIE The Chronicle

In a thrilling overtime contest Sun-

day, South Carolina

(4-0) stunned No. 7 Duke 87-81 in the championship game of the Duke Women’s Classic, as the host Blue Devils (3-2) fell to a visiting foe for the first time in the tournament’s 10year history. South Carolina’s Kelly Morrone sank all eight of the three-point shots she attempted in regulation, the last of which tied the game at 72-72 with 18 seconds remaining, sending the contest into overtime.

P Despite Duke’s decision on the

ongoing labor dispute, other schools await more information before considering canceling their contracts. By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle

The University of Wisconsin at Madison joined Duke in its decision earlier this month not to renew its contract with New Era Cap Company, but most universities have taken a more hesitant approach to the corporation’s ongoing labor dispute. New Era produces licensed apparel for about 300 colleges and universities around the country but began drawing criticism earlier this year after several reports alleged that management ofits Derby, N.Y., factory pays low wages, has unsafe working conditions and practices anti-union activity. If true, the allegations could violate the codes of conduct of many universities that have committed not to Tend their labels to clothing made in sweatshop conditions. After what administrators saw as unresponsiveness to the labor situation, Duke announced Nov. 14 that it See

Kandahar is the last major Taliban holdout against opposition uprisings throughout the country. Hundreds of Taliban prisoners were killed in the prison uprising near Mazar-e-Sharif in northern Afghanistan, but U.S. military forces were all accounted for, Pentagon officials said. A U.S. government official said a Central Intelligence Agency operative was wounded in the uprising.

The U.S. Central Command, which oversees the war in Afghanistan, declined to say if U.S. forces were in the fortress when the fighting broke out. But a German television crew at the scene ofthe fight taped a U.S. special forces soldier calling in U.S. airstrikes on the fortress near the city of Mazar-e-Sharif. The U.S. soldier, who identified himself only as David, is shown on the video from Germany’s AED network. “I don’t know how many Americans there were,” the American said on the tape. “I think one was killed, but I’m not sure. There were two of us at least, me and some other guy.”

A research company reported Sunday it BOSTON had cloned the first human embryo, a development it said was aimed at producing genetically matched replacement cells for patients with a wide range of diseases. But the news from Advanced Cell Technology of Worcester, Mass., drew swift protests from religious and political leaders who saw it as a step toward cloning human beings.

Several states, including California, have banned human cloning, and Congress is considering such a ban. But company officials insisted their work is the first step in providing hope for people with spinal injuries, heart disease and other ailments. “These are exciting preliminary results,” said Dr. Robert Lanza, one of the researchers at Advanced Cell Technology.

“This work sets the stage for human therapeutic cloning as a potentially limitless source of immune-compatible cells for tissue engineering and transplantation medicine,” said Lanza. Lanza and the company’s top executive, Michael West, said they had no interest in transplanting such early embryos into a woman’s womb to give birth to a cloned human being, nor was it clear that their embryo would be capable of that. But the Washington D.C.-based National Right to Life Committee wasted little time Sunday in attacking the announcement. “This corporation is creating human embryos for the sole purpose of killing them and harvesting their cells,” said the group’s legislative director Douglas Johnson. “Unless Congress acts quickly, this corporation and See CLONING on page 7

Red Cross links blood drive to basketball Duke-UNC competition provides model for Points for Pints drive BY CHRISTINA NG The Chronicle

Basketball fans now have a new opportunity to show their school spirit and help the Red Cross at the same time.

The brainchild of Duke Red Cross

Club President Naveen Rao and University of Maryland alumnus Ben Duchek, a new campaign called Points for Pints combines college basketball rivalry and blood donation. The program partners blood drives with participating colleges’ basketball teams—the school with the most pints proportionate to the student and faculty population at the end of the basket-

ball season wins. The campaign, which runs from Nov. 1 to April 1, takes place during the basketball season so colleges can compete not only for the national championship on the court, but also for the Red Cross championship. “The reason why Points for Pints is so exciting is that it capitalizes on college students’ intense school pride and competitiveness in order to save lives,”

Rao said. Modeled after successful blood drives pitting Duke against arch rival University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Points for Pints will involve 18 colleges—many with strong

basketball teams across the nation, such as UNC-CH, North Carolina State University and the University of California at Berkeley. Negotiations are currently underway with Athletics Director Joe Alieva to get Duke basketball players more involved in the campaign; Alieva said he will personally donate blood and has passed information about the competition on to other athletic officials. Although Rao realizes basketball players may be unable to donate blood, he hopes they will still contribute to the campaign through advertising and See BLOOD DRIVE on page 4

context.

“Although most faculty presumably shared America’s horror and condemnation ofthe terrorist attacks, some did not,” the report reads. “And while professors should be passionately defended in their right to academic freedom, that does not exempt them from criticism. The fact remains that academe is the only sector of American society that is distinctly divided in its response.” The report trumpeted the organization’s ties to Lynne Cheney, wife of the vice president. But in a The New York Times article Saturday, Cheney spokesperson Margita Thompson said Cheney was no longer involved with the council. Others have attacked the report’s credibility. “I thought it was pretty irresponsible work on the [report’s] part,” said John Burness, Duke senior vice president for public affairs and government relations. “It was cherrySee PATRIOTISM on page 7 �

endorsements. Coach Mike Krzyzewski may donate blood next semester, and the Red Cross Club is aiming to recruit off-season athletes, Rao said. It is too early to tell whether the club will reach its blood donation goal of 20 percent of the undergraduate, graduate student and faculty population. For their first drive from Nov. 13 to Nov. 15, officials collected 248 units of blood; the goal was 350. Rao said the club originally feared a drop-off after the upsurge in blood donations following Sept. 11. “Many people were just donating after a tragedy,” Nao said. “However, we are confident that people will see the need for blood, and we are emphasizing the need to be prepared.” Many students seem interested in donating. Freshman Lindsay Higgins gave blood Nov. 14 as well as immediately after the Sept. 11 attacks. “I don’t have an excuse not to. At least it’s something I can do,” she said. Subsequent blood drives for Points for Pints will be held Nov. 29 in Gilbert-Addoms Down Under and Dec. 21 for faculty and staff at a location to be announced. Additional drives will resume next semester.

Woman attacked after wallet stolen: A volunteer at the Center for Documentary Studies reported that a man stole her $5O wallet containing credit cards, $4 cash and a driver’s license from her purse, Dean said. She said the man approached the main entrance to the center’s Lyndhurst House at 8:59 p.m. Nov. 19 and signed the guest book with last name Johnson. The man told her he was a janitor and asked for an ice pack for an injured ankle. When the volunteer returned from the hitched, she found the man near the phone. She had a short conversation with him about his presence and he began to leave. The volunteer noticed that her bag was open and became suspicious.

Goestenkors blames herself for loss to Gamecocks

This years Duke women’s basketball team is the most physically gifted in school history. When watching the team compete against men in practice, or blow away some overmatched opponent, the Blue Devils’ athletic prowess is blatantly obvious. In years past, even in their run to the championship game in 1999, the Blue Devils were always underdogs against other highly ranked opponents because of an athletic inferiority. Duke simply didn’t have the players that traditional powerhouses like Tennessee, Connecticut or Purdue had.

Nick Christie Game Commentary This year’s Duke team has finally overcome that obstacle. Alana Beard is as fluid a player as there is in the nation, and possesses the best crossover dribble in the women’s game. Iciss Tillis, who, with her terrific ball handling skills and 6-foot-4 frame, is a guard in a forward’s body, and can pull off moves that leaves one’s mouth agape. Freshmen Monique Currie and Wynter Whitley are strong, powerfully built forwards that are the physical equals of their upperclass adversaries. However, despite their reservoir of talent, the 2001 ,

Blue Devils currently appear to be deficient in the area of mental toughness. In Sunday’s disappointing loss to South Carolina, Duke frequently looked uninterested and confused. Even as the Gamecocks raced to an early lead, the Blue Devils didn’t seem to care very much. Goestenkors said the lack of focus was her fault. “I told the team that obviously I need to do a much better job of being more demanding in practice,” Goestenkors said. “I take full responsibility for this loss, and any loss, because I feel that it ultimately comes back to the coaching.” Goestenkors is a tremendous coach, and although it is noble of her to attempt to seize the onus for Duke’s 32 start, her coaching staff shouldn’t be to blame. Her practices are already intense, and it is hard to doubt the preparatory effort of any member of her coaching staff. Indeed, as evidenced by their dominant performance against Texas Tech, an experienced team ranked in the top 10, the Blue Devils clearly know how to play. The problem is that this year’s Duke team has yet to meet a single challenge or thrive in the face of adversity. Texas Tech never was able to pose a threat, and Duke jumped out to a 20-point lead. The victories over Elon and Davidson were 50-point blowouts. Toledo and South Carolina, both unranked opponents, challenged the Blue Devils. In both games, Duke failed to respond. “At halftime, I asked who was the home team,” Goestenkors said. “I thought South Carolina was playing much more focused and with much more fire than we were, and that surprised me, especially on our home floor. It’s bad enough on the road, but on your home floor it’s inexcusable.” To have already lost to an unranked team seven days previously, and then to allow yourself to remain complacent, is simply bizarre. The Duke players must have assumed that after their 107-58 annihilation of Davidson Saturday, that they had regained their edge. Obviously, they were wrong. “Yesterday’s game did not make us better,” Goestenkors said. “It gave us some confidence, and maybe a false sense of confidence.” When a team’s focus and effort are absent, the most apparent casualty is its defensive performance. “Our defense was horrendous today, horrendous,” Goestenkors said. “It was about like Toledo, in that we’re letting teams run what they want to run. “We picked it up midway through the second half. We caused some turnovers that led to some easy baskets for us, but it was too late in the game. We need to start the game with that kind of focus and intensity.”

SOUTH CAROLINA’S TATYANA TROINA blocks a shot attempted by Blue Devil Rometra Craig.

Despite Duke’s poor defense, USC committed 32 turnovers Sunday. Thirty-two! That translates into 32 extra possessions, most of which were outright gifts, as Gamecock guards played catch with the spectators. Duke never capitalized. The Blue Devils too often have this deer-in-headlights look of disbelief. Even when a brief scoring spurt would elicit a chest-bumping,

fist-pumping celebratipn, the Blue Devils’ confidence disappeared as soon as South Carolina made a basket. It is weird to watch a team that is so good be so docile. Duke is capable of dictating the flow of the game to any opponent in the country. Yet despite its tremendous athletic gifts, this young team has thus far become frightened whenever an opposing team looks them in the eye.

Blue Devils say ‘Aloha’ to Maui with third str Duke ends Ball State’s Cinderella-style run with an 83-71 win in championship game

DANIEL EWING loses control of the ball as he is surrounded by Ball State’s Patrick Jackson and Theron Smith in the first half.

By CRAIG SAPERSTEIN The Chronicle

After winning LAHAINA, Hawaii its ninth straight game and its third tournament title in as many tries, all the men’s basketball team can say about the Maui Invitational is “Mahalo” (Hawaiian for “Thank you”) especially because it did not fall prey to the upset bug that bit UCLA and Kansas the previous two days. Sparked by Jason Williams’ game-high 22 points and tournament MVP Mike Dunleavy’s 11 second-half points, the No. 1 Blue Devils (3-0) defeated an upstart Ball State team (2-1) 83-71 in the championship game of one of college basketball’s most celebrated early season tournaments.

“I thought Mike and Jason did a great job at leadership. The first way to show you’re a leader is to play your butt off, and these guys played as hard as anybody, and then they put themselves on the line,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “Like Mike, in the first half just had a couple of points, he was patient—as long as our team was winning he was fine. And then in the second half, he kind of exploded, which he did for the whole tournament.” Dunleavy’s explosion came at a crucial moment in the contest, as Ball State, which had fallen down by 10 points to the Blue Devils at halftime, was eager to start its comeback early in the second period. However, instead of allowing the Cardinals to turn the tables, Dunleavy continued the Duke onslaught his teammates had started just before the intermission by scoring on Duke’s first four possessions of the second half. On Duke’s fifth possession of the half, Dahntay Jones acrobatically slammed home an alley-oop pass from guard Chris Duhon, and one minute later, Casey Sanders put the Blue Devils up by 20 for the first time with a layup off a pass from Williams. Duke’s lead reached 26 points with 10:47remaining in the contest, but the Cardinals saved face by cutting the margin to as little as 10 with 50 ticks left on the clock. All-tournament selection and Ball State point guard Patrick Jackson was instrumental in the Cardinals’ final comeback attempt, scoring 12 second-half points to keep Ball State within striking distance. “I’m certainly not going to trade my guards. I thought they were as good as the guards at this tournament,” Ball State coach Tim Buckley said. “I don’t know if I’ve ever been around anybody who’s worked as hard at his game and who’s worked as hard at his body and who’s worked as hard at his conditioning [as Jackson].” Despite his coach’s kind words for him after the game, Jackson actually got off to a slow start that was

By the 17:46 mark of the first half, the Blue Devils had already jumped out to a 10-4 lead, as Dunleavy and Duhon hit successive three-pointers and the Jersey boy tandem of Williams and Jones followed with a layup and a jumper, respectively. But the gritty Cardinals, displaying the resolve that had been their trademark throughout the threeday event, came storming back and took the lead on a trey by Robert Owens just after the first official timeout. In the next three minutes, Ball State extended its lead to nine on a three-pointer by guard Chris Williams, who scorched Duke with three trifectas in the opening stanza. Trailing by a wide margin for the first time all season, the Blue Devils slowly crept back into the contest in the last 10 minutes of the first half, benefitting significantly from the eight fouls called on the Cardinals during that time period. Duke hit 11 ofits 14 first-half shots from the charity stripe, which made a tremendous difference in what was a closely contested game at the time. Defense also played a major factor in Duke’s ability to reclaim and then widen its lead to 49-39 at halftime,

Krzyzewski said the Blue Devils made major strides in their collective defensive effort throughout the tournament, and especially against Ball State. “I thought our defense was excellent. Jason’s defense and Dahntay’s defense in particular really set the tone for the team,” Krzyzewski said. “We worried a little bit about the defensive effort we were going to need to have on a day-to-day basis, [During] the two exhibition games, we didn’t need to play very good defense because we just outscored them so badly.” Despite these lopsided exhibition victories, Dunleavy was relatively quiet against the EA Sports AllStars and the Nike Elite team. But in Maui, the junior shined bn both ends ofthe floor, and he was recognized for this effort by being named the most valuable player of the Maui Invitational. “It’s a nice award to have. Certainly, the tournament championship means more to the team,” Dunleavy said. “I think I benefitted from a lot of our other guys... helping me out offensively and defensively. I put up some pretty good numbers, so they awarded me MVP, but I’m just really happy with our team’s performance. That’s what we came here for.”

DAHNTAY JONES tries to dribble past Portland’s Porter Troupe By HAROLD GUTMANN The Chronicle

The loss of Shane Battier is still a large obstacle for this year’s Duke team to overcome, even in a 42-point win over the overmatched Portland Pilots. “I thought we played hard,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “But we weren’t as cohesive as we should be. We’re still trying to develop communication on the team. “More than anything, what we lost from last year was the best communicator maybe to ever play college basketball, certainly at Duke, in Battier. That’s just something that needs to be worked on continuously. We can’t have silent movies; we gotta talk more.” The Pilots (1-2), picked in the preseason to finish seventh out of eight teams in the West Coast Conference, were down only 22-14 with under seven minutes left in the first half against the topranked Blue Devils (4-0), despite 10 turnovers and seven missed layups.

tance shooting of the season, combined with an inability to finish. The Blue Devils made l-of-15 three-pointers before the break, en route to a 5-of-25 performance from behind the arc. Meanwhile Duke exploited a size advantage in the post to create numerous opportunities, but was unable to finish inside.

JASON WILLIAMS dunks during the second half of the Duke-Portland game Sunday night in Cameron

“Coming out, it probably should have been about 20-2,” Krzyzewski said. “But we didn’t finish real well, and that’s been a problem for us. We missed eight dunks and layups tonight and that’s a matter of concentration.” Still, the outcome was never in doubt. Portland coach Michael Holton used a timeout less than three minutes into the game, as Duke built an 8-0 lead by forcing four Pilot turnovers in four offensive possessions. Portland was never able to lower the deficit below eight. Duke took a 15-7 run into intermission, giving the team a 37-

21 halftime lead. Duke continued the run in the second half. A three-pointer from Nick Horvath expanded the lead to 71-42 with 11:40 to go, giving Duke a 34-11 edge since the break. Despite Duke’s offensive misfires, the Blue Devils were able to pressure the Pilots into more turnovers (32) than field goals (30) in the game. Duke converted these miscues for 34 points. Sophomore guard Casey Frandsen led the Pilots with a career-high 28 points, 22 of which came after the break when the game was in hand. For Duke, the scoring was more balanced, with six players scoring in double figures. Carlos Boozer led the team with 20 points and 13 rebounds, the ninth double-double of the junior center’s career,

while Daniel Ewing played his most balanced game, gathering career highs with 15 points, seven rebounds, four assists and four steals in 28 minutes. But the Blue Devils know that they will need to play better as a team to beat the more imposing teams on their schedule, starting Tuesday with a game in Chicago against No. 9 lowa. “We’re not close to the team we were last year,” Jason Williams said. “We’re not as together as we need to be. We have an NBA team in terms of talent, with so many guys capable of doing so many things. It’s going to be our ability to play together that we need to expand on. It happened quicker last year because we had a great leader, but it’s a different year, different team. “Even though we won by 42, we didn’t play the way we should have played. If we won by 42 and guys are there to help each other out, it’s a different win because we feel like we won together. Tonight we felt like we just won apart.” The coach echoed his point guard’s sentiments. “Obviously we have a much more talented basketball team,” Krzyzewski said. “But we weren’t as sharp as we were when we beat Ball State [last game]. If we’re not sharp on Tuesday, we’re going to be in a lot of trouble.” The lowa game will complete a brutal stretch to start the season—five games in

eight days, from Hawaii to Durham to Chicago. Still, Williams didn’t think jet lag was a factor in the team’s poor shooting. “Sometimes shots don’t fall,” Williams said. “But that’s just how the game goes, and you need to move on from there.”

Gamecock defense forces Top 25 changes dramatically

poor Blue Devil shooting after crazy football weekend

GAMECOCKS from page 1 In Toledo s upset last Sunday over the Blue Devils, the Rockets collapsed the middle on defense, daring Duke to beat them with jump shots. Despite the success of such a strategy, South Carolina never considered duplicating it. “It wasn’t our philosophy at all, actually,” Walvius said. “Our philosophy was to play South Carolina defense—try to be more aggressive, and don’t sit back. We wanted to go at Duke.” South Carolina’s defensive schemes forced the Blue Devils into shooting only 41 percent from the floor, a significant turnaround for a squad that had shot a school-record 67 percent in its 107-58 blowout over Davidson in the tournament’s first round. “We were determined not to be motivated offensively tonight,” Walvius said. “We were determined to be motivated defensively, and even though things didn’t always go well for us offensively, for the most part we got our defensive job done. That’s why we won the game.” South Carolina’s tough defense allowed it to survive a shaky offensive output. The Gamecocks turned the ball over a staggering 32 times. “For us to take the next step as a big-time team, we have got to take better care of the basketball,” Walvius said. “Some of our turnovers were just careless.” Despite frequent mental mistakes, South Carolina jumped in front midway through the first half, seizing a lead it would not relinquish until less than 90 seconds remained in regulation. The Gamecocks remained ahead largely because of Morrone’s amazing shooting performance. The sophomore finished with 27 points on 9-ofP-

-12 shooting.

“It’s a shooter’s court,” she said. “Those were great rims.” Despite her hot hand, Morrone never appeared to force a shot, choosing instead to patiently wait for an open opportunity. “When you have players like Shaun

Gortman and Teresa Geter, they attract a ton of attention,” Morrone said. “They can take the ball to the hole and score every time, and I’d rather give them the ball, knowing what they can do, then take a shot.’” Morrone’s effort was all the more impressive as she was usually guarded

by Duke’s Alana Beard, touted as the country’s best defender. After the game, the despondent sophomore attempted to shoulder much of the blame

for Duke’s shocking loss. “It was my fault,” Beard said with tears visible in her eyes. “She was hot but I should have played tougher defense on her.” Morrone’s crucial game-tying three-pointer came only seconds after Duke’s Iciss Tillis missed an uncontested layup at the opposite end of the floor. Tillis delivered an overall strong performance Sunday, scoring 19 points and pulling down 11 rebounds. Indeed, she and freshman Monique Currie—who scored a career-high 22 points off the bench—carried Duke offensively for much, of the game. Unfortunately for the Blue Devils, Tillis’ inability to finish enabled Morrone to have the opportunity to tie the score. Her coach, however, refused to pin the loss on Tillis’ last-minute blunder. “Certainly, Iciss feels badly because she missed that shot,' but we didn’t lose the game because of one missed lay-up,” Goestenkors said. “We don’t dwell on one play of the game because it never comes down to that,” she said.

By RICHARD ROSENBLATT The Associated Press Losses for Nebraska and Oklahoma turned into big gains for Florida, Texas, Oregon and Tennessee in the AP media poll.

While Miami (10-0) was a nearunanimous choice at No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 Sunday, Florida moved up to No. 2, Texas to No. 3, Oregon to No. 4 and Tennessee to No. 5. Nebraska (11-1), beaten by Colorado 62-36 Friday, fell four spots to No. 6, while Oklahoma fell seven places to No. 11 after its 16-13 loss to Oklahoma State Saturday.

The Hurricanes, who close out the regular season Saturday at Virginia Tech, collected 71 first-place votes and 1,799 points from the writers and broadcasters on the AP panel. Miami defeated Washington 65-7 Saturday, dropping the Huskies (8-3) seven places to No. 19. The Gators (9-1), who had a bye week over this weekend, received the remaining first-place vote and received 1,716 points. Florida plays host to Tennessee (9-1) next weekend, with the winner advancing to the Southeastern Conference title game. Texas (10-1) moved up two places following its 21-7 win over Texas A&M, and advanced to Saturday’s Big 12 Conference title game against Colorado. The Buffaloes (9-2) improved five spots to No. 9 after their big win over the Huskers. Oregon (9-1) did not play, but closes

Prior to Nov. 1, North Carolina was considered one of the easiest places for illegal immigrants to get driver’s licenses, but a new law, which originally was not supposed to go into effect until Jan. 1, has put in place stricter guidelines for proving residency.

tighter immigration control. Ron Woodward, president of North Carolinians for Lowering Immigration to Save the Environment Now, cited the need to restrict immigration, which he said currently accounts for 70 percent of all population growth in the United States. He said the population is currently growing too rapidly, creating stress on the environment and government services. “People who support mass immigration are more concerned with what’s good for the immigrant rather than what’s good for Ameri-

cans,” he said. Woodward also opposes amnesty for illegal immigrants, which he sees as a reward for bad behavior. He added that after Sept. 11, an amnesty policy for Mexican immigrants might amount to racial profiling, as it would apply to only one ethnicity.

Technology’s ethics advisory board, called the announcement “nothing but hype.” He said the company’s report lacks any significant details, including what cells company sci-

entists actually grew from the cloned embryo. The paper doesn’t say if Advanced Cell was able to derive any human embryonic stem cells from its cloning effort. “They are doing science by press release,” he said. In findings published Sunday by the online journal, e-biomed: The Journal of Regenerative Medicine, and also described online in Scientific American, the scientists said they had grown a six-cell human embryo. They said they created the early embryo by injecting a very small cell with its genetic material into a woman’s donated egg.

The Chronicle Cloning to improve lives Although scientists must exercise restraint with human cloning, this field offers great potential to advance medical treatment

Saving

and extending life represents a fundamental pursuit of the medical community, and Sunday’s announcement ofthe first cloning of a human embryo serves as a stepping stone to that goal. The new capability—which may facilitate procedures like growing transplantable organs using the patient’s own DNA and treating such debilitating conditions as multiple sclerosis—faces a myriad of ethical issues. But public officials must realize that stopping live-saving research may be unethical in itself. This new scientific frontier has encountered understandable reluctance, even from some of its supporters. Although not human beings—embryos are destroyed when scientists collect the necessary cells—tissue made from human DNA deserves a certain degree of respect. Such tissue should not be created, left unused and carelessly discarded; research on cloned material must have a clear purpose, and scientists should not focus on this new medium for experimentation in cases where other, non-human testing will suffice. These fears have prompted the Senate to consider adopting a ban on human cloning, following the lead of the House of Representatives But officials must realize that scientists have only facilitated the creation of multiple human cells. Completely banning cloning, a reactionary measure, is shortsighted and takes the United States out of the new field at a crucial time in its development; even if U.S. scientists are unable to proceed, cloning research will continue elsewhere If anything, the government should assert itself in creating a strong set ofregulations and assigning this responsibility to a well-defined organization that will enforce those rules. Only by involving themselves in the process can U.S. officials hope to steer human research in a responsible manner. These regulations should not be the outgrowth of a congressional committee or a convention of scientists; they should involve a conglomeration of input from professionals coming from many different fields that considers the medical, moral and social implications of cloning research and its medical applications. Too many lives could benefit from this research to let extremists bring it to a grinding halt. Cloning’s vast menagerie of possibilities must be directed so that it can benefit the health of many while preserving the dignity of the lives its beneficiaries lead. As long as this legitimate scientific benefit exists, research into uses of cloned human cells should continue.

Letters to

the editor

DSG proposed West housing for Trent residents I am writing this letter in response to a Nov. 16 letter and would like to clarify a quotation of mine that was taken completely out of context. Before I explain the situation, I would like to first sincerely apologize to any and- all students who may have misunderstood my intentions and my ultimate goal. My intention with my

amendment at the Nov. 7 meeting was to support current Trent Drive Hall residents, and my ultimate goal as a student representative is to improve the lives and the experiences of undergraduate students in all facets. On Nov. 7, I proposed an amendment to a residential

considering. The amendment read, “Duke Student Government recommends that the administration guarantee West Campus housing

for

independent

sophomores who currently reside in Trent Dormitory. This guarantee will only extend to sophomores who plan on having University

housing for both semesters of their junior year.” The DSG Legislature voted to accept the amendment and later passed the resolution. The purpose ofthis clarification is two-fold: 1) To bring light to my intention behind creating

this amendment. 2) To remind the administration that they have not yet responded publicly to this

request. It is imperative that the students become informed about their residential future. I encourage the administration to respond positively or negatively and to provide a sufficient rationale behind its decision. To my fellow students, I once again thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve you. If I can be of any assistance to you, please do not hesitate to call or send me an e-mail. Have a wonderful end to your semester and I wish you the best of luck on your final exams.

Simpsons’ Apu serves as a negative stereotype We were disturbed by Tushar Kirtane’s Nov. 15 letter arguing that Apu’s appearance on The Simpsons is a positive representation

of Hindu and Indian culture. We would rather the show not repeatedly make South Asian customs seem nonsensical and backward. In a cartoon in which jokes reign, what the audience remembers is not Apu’s sage advice on tolerance but gross exaggerations, such as Apu’s offering Lord Ganesha a Yoohoo, Apu’s betrothal, his drove of children or his snake-charming abilities. In away, Apu is a modernday minstrel character, as a non-Indian does the voice of an Indian. Though instead of blackening his face, the for referenced letter, see

voiceover hides behind the guise of an animated character. It wasn’t political correctness that rid us of minstrel shows but rather the realization that they were simply incorrect. Apu is also incorrect. If you think the character is harmless, you should spend some time at an ele-

mentary school with South

Asian kids. His name has become a racial epithet. Our society forces South Asians to laugh at their own culture. Because there are no other characters on American television to balance Apu’s repre-

sentation, the character greatly influences the public’s understanding of~ South Asian culture. Granted, the show is a satire, but South Asians cannot afford to be

misrepresented when the public is not prepared to sep-

arate fact from fiction. Apu is part of a larger problem. We are concerned about what is considered funny. It is too easy to make fun ofother cultures, and we condemn when this is done, not to be politically correct,

but out of concern for mutual respect. If we do not publicly disagree with how South Asians are represented, as we did in Awaaz, the South Asian community will continue to be portrayed as secondclass citizens. Rakesh Jotwani Trinity ’O2

because the selective groups on West Campus make them uncomfortable—not because they want to live with their friends or because they prefer an apartment with a kitchen to a stuffy dorm room—then there is a solid, practical reason for the housing shuffle. If the survey clearly establishes this causality, then the diversification will not be an instance of pushing selective groups off Main West for ideological reasons but, instead, an instance of responding to students’ genuine concerns. And that will be easy to accept, But if it turns out that this isn’t the case, the Division of Student Affairs will have some explaining to do and will have to offer up a coherent argument on why it makes sense to impose diversity against the students’ wishes. Either way, I’d love to hear it. Marko Djuranovic is a Trinity senior & science editor of

Abdullah loves his furry sweater:

McQueen’s news briefs

Northern Alliance Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah said Saturday that he really loves his furry sweater. The announcement comes just hours after Northern Alliance troops claimed Kunduz, the last Taliban stronghold in northern Afghanistan “I really love my furry sweater,” said Abdullah, speaking to Western journalists as he frequently does on behalf of the Northern Alliance. “It’s amazingly soft and cozy, not to mention the fact that it keeps me exceptionally warm, which is something I’m Sparky going to need when the harsh Afghan u winter rolls in off the mountains.” Monday, M y Shocked by the sheer efficiency and rugged fashionability of the furry sweater, many experts and*’ reporters have wondered why more ofthe Northern Alliance fighters don’t have similar furry sweaters or even furry pants, now that clear supply lines have been secured to cities like

Kabul and Mazar-e-Sharif. “It seems to me that if they could get a shipment of furry clothing in from Pakistan or possibly even from Uzbekistan, they would be able to keep more of their fighters warm when the weather turns cold in a few weeks,” said retired general Norman Schwarzkopf of GulfWar fame. “Plus, everybody would be a lot softer. You can’t discount the value of softness in a struggle like this. It’s great for morale.” “Old Double A—that’s what we call him —he really loves that furry sweater,” an Alliance commander said of the foreign minister. “I’ve never really had any need for a furry sweater. I’m not saying I wouldn’t love to have one, but I’ve got this flak jacket that
