‘Thief makes debut at orientation Off-campus parkers gain By JENNIFER HASVOLD The Chronicle

Although the opening paragraph of

Ethan Canin’s “The Palace Thief,” reads “This is a story without surprises,” the short story provided enough material for over an hour of discussion during freshman orientation. Teams of first-year students met at the Marketplace on East Campus Sunday afternoon and broke into smaller groups to discuss their reactions to the assigned summer reading, as well as how it influenced their views on academic integrity.

All underclassmen will likely be able to park in the Blue Zone this year, administrators said, tentatively banishing earlier fears that commuters would have to park in the remote lots on Duke University Road.

In related news University administrators saw the implementation of their efforts to make orientation more academic last week, although freshmen gave mixed reviews of the experience.

Former Duk e stars shine at All-S tar Charity Game Seven NBA players j oined the second annual game By PAUL DORAN The Chronicle

165 It began with a bang and ended with a Corey Maggette windmill Blue 157 jam as the White team beat the Blue team 165-157 in the All-Star Charity Game Friday night at 7 p.m. in Cameron Indoor Stadium. The game, which was played in the spirit of an exhibition fanfest—potent, flashy offensive skill and little in the way of defending—featured eight former men’s basketball stars and seven of their NBA compatriots. “Games like this can normally be where nobody cares and they don’t put on a good show,” said head coach Mike Rrzyzewski. “These guys put on a great show. They were enthusiastic, they showed teamwork, and I think they tried, every third play, to play a little bit of defense The 15 players were divided into two teams, Blue and White. The Blue squad consisted of Darrell Armstrong, Brian Davis, Kirk Hasten Christian Laettner, Corey Maggette, Morris Peterson and Ricky Price. Playing for the White team were Shane Battier, Jeff Capel, Juan Dixon, Mike Dunleavy, Danny Ferry, Jaren Jackson, Steve Kerr and Rodney Rogers. While

Two notable Duke stars, Elton Brand and Jay Williams were not able to attend because of obligations to the U.S. national team. Memphis Grizzlies’ head coach Sidney Lowe called the shots for Blue, while Washington Wizards’ head coach Doug Collins was on the bench with the White team. Collins was “assisted” by Grant Hill, arguably the most popular player in the history of the men’s basketball program, who was not playing for precautionary reasons. The game was played under NBA rules, with NBA quarters, NBA refs and a college three-point line, the result of which was a long distance bombing contest, as the two teams took more than 100 treys between themselves. Nearly everyone got in on the long range action including Hasten, the Magic’s 6-foot-9 center, who displayed his versatility shooting 2-for-4 from behind the arc. “I love shooting the ball here. I shoot the ball pretty well here,” said Dixon, who lead all scorers with 40 points. “I just wanted to get off to a strong start, just go out there and have some fun. I was able to get a lot of looks and I was able to knock down a lot of open shots.” See ALL STARS in Sportswrap page 9 Durham police officers are investigating the report of an attempted robbery and possible sexual assault early Friday morning in a Knox Street home.

Jean-Baptiste aims for responsiveness This is the first story in a five-part series profiling various student leaders this year. By MOLLY NICHOLSON The Chronicle

In his spare time, Joshua Jean-Baptiste can be found hanging out with his fraternity brothers at Alpha Phi Alpha, or catching up with old friends. “I’m pretty laid back,” the Duke Student Government president said. “I like when things are relaxed, in a welcome environment.” As the leader of one the largest undergraduate organizations, however, the Orlando, Fla., native plans to extend that welcome environ-

THE NEW RICK’S DINER served about 700 students over the weekend before running out of food.

24-hour diner forced to close By TAYO FAMAKINWA and MIKE MILLER The Chronicle

Unexpectedly good business and a lack of resources forced Rick’s Diner to stop serving food late Sunday night just three days after opening. Several students were turned away when the restaurant ran out of food, and the diner may temporarily close Monday morning. Tony Strickland, general manager of Rick’s, explained that the facilities provided by the University are inadequate for a 24-hour diner serving the number of students that have arrived. About 700 students ordered food between Friday morning and Saturday afternoon, and too few refrigerators have been installed, forcing workers to run out to a refrigerated truck about 30 times a day, he said. “This was originally designed to be a burger and hot dog joint,” Strickland said. “We’ve been dealt the hardest hand possible.” Strickland plans to keep upgrading the diner and promised, “We can do much better once we’re See RICK’S DINER on page 18

Large, colorful benches decorated with Greek letters are among the most visible signs of fraternity and social life at Duke, but they are no longer visible to students and visitors walking down the Main West Quadrangle.

Nonetheless, more greek activity is increasingly taking place off-campus. “Alcohol continues to be a social lubricant, and parties will continue to evolve off campus,” Larry Moneta, vice president for student affairs, wrote in an e-mail. “I also hope we’ll see a maturing nightlife scene in the local Durham area to help offset the private house parties, which utilize large volume dispensers,” such as kegs.

munity in the quad,” Millard said. “I would like to see the frats interact with non-greeks.” Millard said she looks forward to meeting both fraternity members and independent students and voicing their concerns and opinions to the administration. “The only way to get s-t done is to build good relationships,” she said. “I will take the time to be trusted by all parties.”

They were the ones overseeing each quad’s checkin tables in the Intramural Building last week and the ones speaking at the first quad-wide meetings Sunday night. And although students may not have met all eight residence coordinators yet, they are intent on making their presence known this year. “The week has been long and full of information and meeting students,” said Tegwin Millard, Few Quadrangle’s RC. “We’re all just kind of getting into a routine right now.” The eight RCs have been on campus since June, and their first impressions of the University are positive, “It’s a beautiful campus, and the student body is

Students looking to rub shoulders with the likes of Spike Lee, Carl Bernstein and Dr. Jocelyn Elders may have their chance now that the chair of the Major Speakers division of the Duke University Union is up for grabs.

Union President Jesse Panuccio appointed sophomore Ariane Vinograd at the end oflast year, but Vinograd transferred from Duke over the summer, leaving the position vacant. The Major Speakers chair is one of the most highly visibly leadership positions within the Union, Panuccio said. The committee brings six major speakers to Duke each year and has an annual budget of about $57,000. “The chair is in charge of all aspects of the major speakers series for the year, including contacting agents, finding possible speakers, working on con-

across the country.

“At Duke, there are a lot resources,” Montag added. “It’s a little bit easier to get what students need here.” Under the new residential system, each quad has its own RC, who is responsible for working with quad more

councils on programming, being on call for crisis intervention and overseeing residential advisers and graduate assistants. They will also share judicial responsibility for residence hall-related issues. RCs are required to spend 20 hours per week in their quad offices or at related meetings, and another 20 hours meeting with other staff members and overseeing events in their quad, West-Edens Link RC Stephanie Carter said. Although quad programming was initially billed as one of the RCs’ primary responsibilities, most said they are initially allowing their RAs and GAs to do most ofthe planning. “In the first couple weeks, our RAs will be organizing get-to-know-you type events, so students in the quad can familiarize themselves with each other,” said Craven RC Norman Wallace. All ofthe RCs said that within the next month, they will primarily turn their attention to academic programming. “I want to focus on bringing this awesome academic institution into our halls,” Montag said. “We want professors to feel free to come and meet with students in the dorms.” Wallace said he and his quad staff hope to hold intellectual events, such as discussion dinners with professional school faculty, but stressed that he and his staff would look to students first for ideas. “I would like to do a lot of different types of programming, especially some that raise awareness and respect for different cultures and diversity,” Crowell/Wannamaker RC Terry Lynch added. With the addition of a new residence staff member, some students have expressed concern about another level of“policing” on Friday and Saturday nights when parties begin to rage. “I don’t foresee it being my job to police anyone,” Carter said. “I’m here to make sure everyone is safe and making good judgments.... We’ve all learned that there is a huge alcohol culture here at Duke. It’s so ingrained in the students here, we’re not coming in to change that.” Carter’s colleagues agreed, noting their job on the weekends is to make sure residents in their quads party responsibly. “I’m not going to be at the parties, Millard said. “I don’t have time to be the police person. I just want to make things are safe for everyone.” Wallace said the RCs will have some judicial responsibility for minor violations such as excessive noise problems, first-time alcohol policy violations and

roommate conflicts.

“I anticipate that there may be a mistrust of the RCs, but once we get going in the semester and [students] see what we are doing, I hope that mistrust will wane away,” he added.

Fuqua students feel job market crunch By KIRA ROSOFF The Chronicle

As signs pointing to a rapid economic recovery remain ambiguous, students at the Fuqua School ofBusiness are facing the daunting task that they may not get their first-choice job. Applications to business schools have risen in recent years due to the decreasing availability of investment banking and consulting positions. As the job market has improved little, however, even students who entered business schools to escape the economy are now beginning to question their plans for the future. Many jobs, particularly in finance and small business, have taken a severe hit, decreasing the overall number of available openings in as many as two thirds of the positions students from top schools previously sought. “When we [first] went to business school, you could jump into any career you wanted to,” said Gregg Wurster, a second-year Fuqua student. “That’s gone. People have to be more sensible and refine their job searches.” Tera Ferguson—a second-year Fuqua student and president of the MBA Association, the Fuqua student government—stressed the importance of students to refine their job searches to show interest in just a few opportunities. “A lot of companies hold out of the formal recruiting process now,” Ferguson said. “Since they have few recruiting dollars to spend, they put more stock into how much in- FRESHMEN MEET TO DISCUSS ‘The Palace Thief” in front of Wilson Dormitory as part of a plan to add academic content to orientation terest you express.” Whether such efforts will pay off will have to wait until the end ofthe fall recruiting season, but some students said they have noticed increased competition even in their classrooms. Although the Fuqua curriculum has not seen any structural changes in response to the economic decline, students said there is greater pressure to be at the top of the class.

the difficulty of courses mounting. “People are working much harder. It is very competitive to get in, but things became harder once you were in,” he said. “It may happen that students begin considering law or policy or international economics because there are not as many positions available nationally.” Second year Fuqua student, Marc Sokol agreed with Wurster, but did not express concern about getting jobs in general. He said that while students may not get their first job choices, Fuqua graduates are not overly concerned with finding employment. “I expect the economy will get better,” said Sokol. “But the recruiting happens in the fall; even if the economy is better by the time we graduate, the companies that are recruiting base their decisions [for the number of recruitment’s] on the economy now.”

Although the administration had hoped to make this year’s freshman orientation more academic than in years past, its efforts seemed to be lost on many students. “Maybe I missed something, but I don’t think any of the [events] even attempted to be academic,” James Chiang said. The major new initiative was a summer reading requirement, a short story called“The Palace Thief.” Students discussed the reading with their [first-year advisory counselors] in small groups Sunday afternoon. “I liked the book, but a lot of people didn’t seem to

be that excited about it,” Anastasia Dolgovskij said.

“We didn’t really get that in-depth.” Assistant Dean of Student Development Ryan Lombardi, who is in charge of freshman orientation,

tributed to the academic emphasis. The administration will extend orientation over six weeks this year, with sessions scattered throughout that period. “You don’t orient to something in five days,” Lombardi said. Since the first few days of orientation were less jam-packed than years past, freshmen could meet with their pre-major advisers Thursday and Friday without missing other activities. The overall aim was to make sure students did not feel overwhelmed by the first day of classes, Lombardi said. Some students, however, still felt unprepared. “I’m kind ofheading in a little blind,” said Chiang, who wanted to know more about what academic demands the University will place on him.

Afghans ponder freeing al-Qaeda

CRIME BRIEFS From staff reports

Police investigate attempted assault

Durham police are trying to determine whether a firstdegree burglary and possible attempted sexual assault reported early Friday in the Watts-Hillandale neighborhood is similar to an incident reported two weeks earlier. The victim, who lives on Knox Street, was awakened around 1:45 a.m. Friday by a man in her bedroom. The victim screamed and the man fled out the front door. Due to poor lighting, the victim was only able to provide a vague description of the suspect, who was described as 18 to 30 years old and approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall. He was described as a Hispanic male or light-complected black male. He was wearing a baseball cap, tank top and shorts. A similar incident was reported on Iredell Street Aug. 7. The victim told officers she was awakened around 1:30 a.m. by a man who was standing next to a couch on which she was sleeping. The victim screamed and the man fled. The victim was unable to provide a description of the suspect. Anyone with information is asked to call the Durham Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division at 560-4440 or CrimeStoppers at 683-1200. CrimeStoppers pays cash rewards for information leading to arrests in felony cases.

Students arrested for drug possession

At 4:47 a.m. Aug. 23, Duke police officers responded to room 202 Building M in reference to an odor of marijuana. Upon arrival, a strong odor of marijuana was detected coming from the room. Subsequent investigation found a plastic bag filled with marijuana, a wooden box containing

Guards say they are still dangerous and should remain jailed By TODD PITMAN The Associated Press

KABUL, Afghanistan Afghan authorities are considering releasing hundreds offoreign prisoners, many of them suspected al-Qaeda fighters, but those guarding them argue the men are still dangerous terrorists who should remain behind bars. In the basement of the intelligence ministry building in Kabul, some 50 bearded prisoners sit barefoot, up to seven to a room, reading the Quran and praying. Most are Pakistanis; a few are from

neighboring Tajikistan. Each traveled to Afghanistan last year, but their reasons are varied and vague. None bothered to bring a passport, and all were eventually captured by Northern Alliance troops in the wake of the US. bombing campaign that ousted the Taliban. Few, if any, admit fighting. “We were bringing private aid from the people of Pakistan, I brought medicines for ordinary Afghan people who were being attacked,” said 20-year-old Mohammad Alam, one of five prisoners in a tiny room at the jail Saturday. Another claims to have been a refugee who lived in Afghanistan for years. Another, Abdullah Haji Amir Bahdor, 22, says he went to Kabul only to attend a picnic just before American bombs began falling last October. “I didn’t have a weapon, I was not fighting,” he said. Lai Agha, a northern alliance commander in charge of the detention center, quickly dismisses

whippet cartridges, cartridge adapters, balloons, plastic medicine bottle containing marijuana, three glass pipes, a metal box and $2,200 cash. The room’s two residents Robert Gregg and Ross Miller were charged with posses- the accounts. “They’re all al-Qaeda who came to fight in sion of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. Neither chose to comment. Their court date is set for Sept. Afghanistan,” Agha said. “They all had weapons. 23, The investigation is on-going and additional charges Some of these people were fighting in (the northern city of) Kunduz even after the Taliban surrendered.” are possible. The government has yet to give an exact count of how many foreigners have been captured, but Caroline Douilliez, a spokesperson for the International See CRIME on page 14

Committee ofthe Red Cross, said Afghanistan’s jails house at least 2,500 foreign detainees from 30 different countries. Another 70 foreigners were also being held at US. jails in Bagram and Kandahar, she said. US. Embassy spokesperson Alberto Fernandez said the US. had no comment on the issue, calling the prisoners’ fate solely “a decision of the Afghan government.”

A U.S. diplomat, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the remaining prisoners were not of large importance. “They may be extremists in no one considers these importheir views, but tant people,” he said. During a visit to Kabul in April, Pakistan President Gen. Pervez Musharraf asked President Hamid Karzai to release detained Pakistanis. Shortly afterward, several dozen Pakistani prisoners were handed over to authorities in Pakistan, but hundreds remain in custody. Foreign Minister Abdullah said the fate of the prisoners would be decided on a case-by-case basis. Those with no known links to terrorists and who have not been accused of human rights violations would likely be released on “humani...

tarian” grounds.

Abdullah said a group of prisoners would probably be handed over to Pakistani authorities “in a few days” in the “interest of relations between the two nations.” A senior intelligence officer admitted that releasing the men might promote reconciliation, but he warned it could backfire. “They still consider [Taliban leader] Mullah [Mohammed] Omar and Osama bin Laden as their leaders,” the intelligence official said, on condition of anonymity. “They know how to use explosives, See PRISONERS on page 20

Japan, North Korea conclude first high-level talks The discussions, meant to improve diplomatic relations between the countries, are the first senior level talks in two years. However, Japanese officials are not yet optimistic about improvement. By YURI KAGEYAMA The Associated Press

Japanese and North PYONGYANG, North Korea Korean officials met again Monday as part their first high-level talks in two years, trying to build on a starting session that moved little beyond a reiteration of past clashing views. The two-day talks in the North Korean capital of Pyongyang, which began Sunday, are a mere prelude in efforts to set up diplomatic relations that have never been established between the two Asian nations. Japanese officials have warned against expecting too much out of the latest talks—the first between government officials since normalization talks collapsed in 2000. But they also noted that the long isolated communist nation may be gradually seeking ties with the rest of the world because of growing economic woes that have forced it to rely on foreign help. As talks began Monday in a meeting room adorned with portraits of North Korean leader Kim Jong II and his late father and founding president Kim II Sung, the top Japanese negotiator reiterated that both sides remain far apart. “We have very difficult problems,” said Hitoshi Tanaka, chief of Asian affairs at the Japanese Foreign Ministry. His North Korean counterpart Ma Choi Su held out expectations for “sincere negotiations,” and added that it was important “to concentrate to think about the kind of results we must produce.” On the first day of talks, both sides merely repeated the long-held views of both nations, according to a senior Japanese official. More in-depth dialogue was expected during Monday’s sessions. “A frank exchange is going on,” ministry official Kenji

HITOSHI TANAKA, left, chief of the Japanese Foreign Ministry’s Asian and Oceanian Affairs Bureau, and Ma Choi Su, chief of the North Korean Foreign Ministry’s Asian Affairs Bureau, shake hands at the start of government-level talks in Pyongyang. Hiramtasu said North Korea stressed that Tokyo must first apologize and provide compensation for its colonial rule of the Korean peninsula from 1910 to 1945. Japan has said it is willing to discuss an apology but has been reluctant to provide monetary compensation. Japan repeated its demand to know what became of 11 citizens it says were kidnapped by North Korea in the 1970s and 1980s to train North Korean spies in Japanese language and customs. Some disappeared while strolling or driving on a beach, never to be heard from again. The abduction allegation, which North Korea has repeatedly denied, caused normalization talks to fall apart two years ago. *

China sets date to change Communist Party leaders The presidential switch will be in November By CHRISTOPHER BODEEN The Associated Press

BEIJING China set the date Sunday for its Communist Party national congress, a watershed event expected to position a new generation of leaders for the world’s most populous nation as it undergoes wrenching economic and social change. The 16th National Party Congress was scheduled for Nov. 8, when President Jiang Zemin, 79, is expected to turn over the leadership of Communist Party to his designated successor, Vice President Hu Jintao. Diplomatic sources say the congress had been scheduled for September and they suspect it was pushed back because Jiang is trying to maintain influence even as he hands over power. The suspicions have been strengthened by the fact that China’s leaders have said remarkably little about the matter in past weeks. The November date means Jiang still will be president, party secretary general and head of key party and state military commissions when he visits North America in late October. The state-run Xinhua News Agency, announcing the date, said the congress the first in five years—was “extremely important” and would “gird for battle and deploy for the great engineering task of advancing party construction.”

The gathering will elect a new Central Committee for the party as well as members of an influential body for punishing corruption and other ills, Xinhua said. Most of the top members of the Central Committee are expected to step down and be replaced by younger men.

The Communist Party’s Political Bureau suggested the Nov. 8 date, which must still be approved by the governing Central Committee. But it was unlikely the date would change, since such important decisions typically are set by consensus after long private discussions. Such congresses can run anywhere from a few days to two weeks or longer. Jiang is not expected to step down from the presidency before the annual meeting of China’s parliament in spring. But before that happens, November’s party congress appeared ready to cement his legacy. Xinhua said the congress will sum up work done over the last five years, and “comprehensively carry out the important thoughts of ’Three Represents’”— the political theory of party modernization that Jiang is believed to want written into the party’s constitution. The theory lays down three messages: the Communist Party has to keep up with

Israeli defense minister reverses withdrawal plan By SERGE SCHMEMANN

New York Times News Service

JERUSALEM Only a week after Israel announced an agreement with the Palestinians to start pulling back from Palestinian areas, the defense minister said Sunday that there would be no further withdrawals at least until the end of the Jewish holidays in September. Palestinian officials responded angrily. A senior aide to Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian leader, called it a “dangerous action.” “The Israeli side has no intention to withdraw from the West Bank and Gaza,” said the aide, Nabil Aburdeineh. “Therefore there won’t be any progress.” A week ago, Defense Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer announced an agreement with Palestinian security chiefs to start pulling Israeli troops back, starting with Bethlehem and the Gaza Strip, allowing the Palestinians to resume policing the areas. The Palestinian police did return to Bethlehem, which has remained quiet. But the Israeli army continued raids in Gaza, and Sunday, after a week of criticism from right-wing politicians and military officers, Ben-Eliezer announced that he was delaying any withdrawal from Hebron, the next West Bank city slated for a withdrawal, for at least six weeks.

Ben-Eliezer said he barred any further withdrawals because the potential for violence had not abated. “It is pointless to move forward unless there is quiet and the warnings have stopped,” he said on television. “In Hebron there are still many warnings. We want to go about this process step by step.” Hebron has been relatively quiet in recent weeks, although there have been some violent incidents, including attacks for which a militant group associated with Arafat’s Fatah movement, A1 Aksa Martyrs Brigades, has claimed responsibility. In addition, the army has continued its raids into Palestinian towns and villages to seize suspected militants, prompting some shootouts in which several Palestinians have been wounded. Israeli reports suggested that Ben-Eliezer’s decision was prompted by opposition in the military, and by lukewarm support from Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.

At the same time, Ben-Eliezer said that meetings were continuing with Palestinian officials on advancing the withdrawals. The agreement was also challenged from the outset by all militant Palestinian groups, including A1 Aksa, which responded by vowing to continue attacks against Israelis. The Palestinian who negotiated with Ben-Eliezer, Interior Minister Abdel Razak Yehiyeh, said in a statement that he had tried to convince the militants that the withdrawal agreement was “merely the first step towards ending the Israeli occupation and siege imposed on our cities.” In the West Bank town ofTulkarem Saturday night, Palestinian militants shot and killed and woman they accused of collaborating with Israel. A1 Aksa Martyrs Brigades claimed responsibility in a telephone call to Reuters.

OFF-CAMPUS PARKING from page 1 As of last Wednesday afternoon, West Campus residents—who have priority on Blue Zone permits through the end ofthis week—had claimed fewer than 950 of the 1,495 Blue Zone spots, and there were only 98 commuters on the waitlist. Beginning this Thursday, commuting students who indicated preference for the Blue Zone will be taken off the waitlist and given any remaining Blue Zone spots. Until Thursday, West Campus

residents may buy a parking permit from the Parking and Transportation Office on Campus Drive. After Thursday, however, all students will have equal chance at any remaining spots. Duke Student Government President Joshua JeanBaptiste said the windfall comes from a high original estimate, which was based on the higher permit demand of students who lived in Trent. Parking and Transportation Services will notify the waitlisted commuters about their status through e-mail and campus mail. Director of Parking and Transportation Services Cathy Reeve said if residents do not receive notice by Sept. 6, they should contact the parking office. Both on- and off-campus residents could register online for parking permits during a several-week period that ended Aug. 15. Off-campus residents could only indicate a preference for the $lBO Blue Zone permit, which entered them on a waitlist. Commuting students who wanted a permit but did not choose to be waitlisted received a $lO remote permit in the Duke University Road lots. There are 307 spots in the lot, but Reeve said there is no upper limit on how many permits may be sold. Jean-Baptiste recommended they take advantage of the Blue Zone. “I strongly encourage getting a Blue Zone permit because it’s the only lot with a one-to-one ratio, so you are guaranteed a spot,” he said. “My worst nightmare would be to have a class in 10 minutes and there not be a spot in the dirt lot because it is oversold.” Some commuters, like senior Eva Wilkenson, would prefer the Blue Zone but have not yet applied. Those people will be eligible only after those on the waitlist have been taken care of. Wilkenson said the safety and proximity of the Blue Zone makes it a superior option and that she hopes she will get a permit for it. “Everyone I know who lives off-campus is stressed about the parking situation,” she said. “[All undergraduates receiving Blue Zone permits] would definitely reduce so much stress.” Senior Steve Strickland, who fives in the Belmont Apartments, also is not on the waitlist, but said that if he does not get a Blue Zone permit, he will ride a bike to class, rather than park in the Duke University lots. Senior Loree Lipstein chose an apartment within walking distance from East Campus to avoid parking issues. “During the parking fiasco, we were so happy we wouldn’t have to deal with it all—it was definitely a plus for the apartment,” Lipstein said. “Besides not having to deal with the hassle of driving to class and finding a spot, we also don’t have to pay to park in the Blue Zone.

COURT from page 2 have suggested that EU governments should avoid making Article 98 bilateral

arrangements with the United States, pending further consultations toward a common EU position,” Powell wrote in the letter. In a confidential document written by the European Commission, the European Union’s executive body, the commission’s initial legal assessment is against the United States’ request, according to European diplomats who have read the document.

Department transcript of the interview. While several European nations viewed these remarks as a veiled threat, Philip Reeker, a State Department spokesperson, said “there is no connection” between a decision by the United States in favor of a country’s membership in NATO and the country’s decision on granting an exemption. He said Prosper’s remarks about NATO reflected the administration’s deep concerns about the court. “The Europeans know our concerns about peacekeeping and NATO,” Reeker said. “We are not prepared to speculate on what alternative strategies we might pursue if our current policy falls short of our goal.”

The conclusion states that “the bilateral agreements proposed by the U.S. are not covered by Article 98.

Sedgewick knew he was a cheater, he was still able to get ahead in society,” he said. “The guys in the real world pulled real-world tactics and came out ahead.” Students discussed how Duke’s intellectual climate might affect honor code compliance and conveyed concern that competition in classes may put pressure on some students to cheat. “The people that cheat the most are generally the [Advanced Placement] students,” Levin said. Some freshmen doubted the ability of the honor code to stem academic dishonesty. “People who are going to cheat will do it whether or not they sign a piece of paper,” Caroline Otto said. Ashley Burns also questioned the honor code’s effectiveness, noting that it was not likelyto influence an individual’s behavior. “I think it is supposed to be instilled in the student,” she said. While there was general doubt about whether the honor code solved the problem of dishonesty, many agreed that it is important for an academic institution to take a stand on issues of cheating, regardless of its ability to deter violators. “I think an honor code is just a statement for the school,” Sid Palani said.

Student Government was formed in 1993 after its predecessor, the Associated Students of Duke University, was dissolved. DSG has an executive branch comprised of a president, the president’s appointed cabinet and four elected vice presidents. The legislature is comprised of about 50 students from each class on each campus. Among its tasks are appointing a young trustee, organizing and distributing student funding, advising administrators on important policy decisions, and administering basketball seating, Krzyzewskiville and individual legislative projects.

This year, however, he hopes to provide students more on-campus social options, such as concerts at The Loop and Armadillo Grill. “Our goal should be to develop some informal environments, so that on Friday and Saturday nights, if I don’t want to go off campus, there’s something for me to do,” Jean-Baptiste said.

PUBPOL 1055.01 Documentary Experience: A Video Approach The theme for Fall 2002 is "The Body and Culture." Students will produce documentaries that examine human bodies as socially and politically significant entities. There are many ways in which the embodiment of human existence is given specific cultural and personal salience in people's everyday lives: 1) We utilize our perceptions of human bodies to divide people into racial groups and clear-cut sexes/genders with seemingly transparent and obvious differences; 2) We deem human bodies attractive or ugly-

enlisting surgeons, personal trainers, and cosmetics to improve perceived imperfections; 3) We debate the future possibilities of a "Brave New World" inhabited by biotechnologically enhanced "posthuman" bodies cloned from DNA and cured of all physical and psychological diseases; 4) We employ various bodily adornments (piercings, tattoos, hair-styles, clothing) to say things about ourselves and our connections to other people; 5) We use current advances in medical science to re-configure the possibilities of childbirth and to replace faulty organs with new ones. Interested students should submit a one page statement of their proposed documentary idea. The statement should include choice of subject, possible characters, location(s), and a reason for choosing the subject.

"German Responses to Terrorism" "Terrorism and Germany" will be our guiding theme in this advanced grammar and composition course. Over the course of the semester, we will examine German responses to the terrorist acts committed on German soil in the 19705, and consider whether there are lessons to be learned from that era for the post-9/11 world. We will also look at how the present "Kampf gegen den Terror" has impacted Germany. By working with a wide variety of texts that deal with the German experience of terrorism (including Heinrich Boll's Die verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum), you will be able to focus on numerous aspects of German grammar and style while expanding your vocabulary. Overall the course will focus on increasing your ability to express your own ideas as convincingly and precisely as possible. Through a process of carefully guided writing exercises, including free writing, composing drafts, peer editing, and revising, you will practice writing various kinds of texts, such as biographical portraits, place descriptions, narratives, reports, reviews, argumentation and persuasion, and literary interpretive essays.

CHINA from page 12

Some students have complained that service at the diner can be a little slow and that sometimes special orders are forgotten. “It seems like they weren’t really prepared for the numbers of students they are getting,” said sophomore Artesia Balthrop. Sophomore Alfred White added, “It’s a great idea, and they have good food, but the wait is sometimes too long if you come at the wrong time.” The diner is in the process of bringing in more staff to help speed up service, and management has indicated that they may reevaluate their hours of operation if certain times show weak business.

modem China, embrace the new economic and professional elite—and even offer membership to the very entrepreneurs that it once reviled. Giving it the party stamp would put Jiang on an ideological par with former

leader Deng Xiaoping and Mao Zedong, the founder ofcommunist China. Jiang is due to visit President George W. Bush at his Crawford, Texas, ranch Oct. 25 and attend a meeting of Asian-Pacific leaders in Mexico before returning for the congress. The new generation of leaders will likely need years to build their political muscle because assertiveness traditionally is frowned upon in the rigidly hierarchical communist system. Meanwhile, the issues grow more demanding as China must provide for growing legions of urban workers laid off from failed state industries while cooling anger among farmers with stagnating incomes. There is strong public resentment over rampant official corruption and the increasingly glaring gap between rich and poor. A lesser challenge comes from the desire among urban, educated Chinese and younger officials for more responsive, transparent government. The military is seen as increasingly assertive. The generals especially want China to stand up to the United States, which is viewed both as China’s main rival and its most important economic partner. The generals also are pushing for a harder line on Taiwan, the island republic claimed by China as its own territory, saying military force may be necessary to assert Beijing’s control.

URBAN WARFARE umph, but differed about how difficult a

military campaign would be, particularly ifAmerican forces were compelled to fight in Iraq’s cities. Their assessments depend not only on the quality of Iraq’s forces but on how many Iraqi units would remain loyal to Saddam. “I think it is a serious mistake to underestimate the current combat capability of Iraq military to include air defense,” said retired Gen. Joseph Hoar of the Marines, who used to lead the US. Central Command, which has responsibility for planning and executing American military operations in the Middle East. “The major lesson of the Gulf War is that Iraq was no match for US. forces in the open desert,” he said. “That would lead me to believe that they will use built-up areas and barriers where they can to make up for their lack of mobility and technology. We are going to prevail. The question is risk.” Retired Gen. Barry McCaffrey of the Army, who led the 24th Mechanized Division against Iraqi forces in the Gulf War, was more sanguine about the course of a American military campaign against Iraq. “My assessment is that if you put enough pressure on them, they will come apart and won’t fight,” McCaffrey said. “The notion that they will retreat into the built-up areas and turn them into a kind of Stalingrad is laughable. “I don’t think they can handle the synergy of American military power, the violence and speed. A war could entail a few thousand US. casualties. But my honest judgment is that if we are serious about this, it would take 90 days to build up our forces and 21 days for the

campaign. I think they will unravel.” There is no question that the Iraqi military is a pale reflection of the Iraqi force that rushed into Kuwait in August 1990. Because of the U.N. embargo, the Iraqis have not been able to buy new weapons. Meanwhile, the United States has upgraded its military with more advanced reconnaissance systems and precision weapons. The Iraqis have had difficulty obtaining spare parts, substantially reducing the military’s readiness and its ability to move forces around the country. The Iraqi army, with a strength of 350,000, is about a third of its size at the start of the Gulf War. It is made up of 17 regular army divisions and six divisions of the elite Republican Guard. American intelligence officials say Iraq’s regular army forces are kept far from the capital for fear that they might be involved in a coup against Saddam. That deployment enables them to contain indigenous threats but means that they can directly contribute little to the defense of Iraq’s capital. Eleven of the regular army divisions are involved in defending northern Iraq. The remaining six divisions are focused on suppressing the resistance of Shiite Muslims in the south. Long stretches of Iraq’s border with Iran are virtually undefended, a pattern that suggests that the Iraqi government has concluded that the internal opposition is the greater threat. There is ample evidence that morale in the regular army is is not high and that not all units can be relied on to fight. In 1998, when the Clinton administration mounted its series of air strikes against suspected sites of weapons of mass destruction, many Iraqi soldiers deserted, according to American intelligence officials.

ORIENTATION w Bridget Bailey echoed Chiang’s feeling that orientation failed to provide enough practical information for students. “They told us a lot about if you’re stressed out [to] call this number... but not as much about what to expect in the first few weeks,” she said Other students did not mind the lack of academic pro-

gramming. “There wasn’t really a whole lot of academic-oriented stuff, but that’s okay by me,” William Wright said. “We’ll have plenty of opportunities for that when the school year starts.” Orientation also provided a chance for freshmen to meet Ryan Lombardi one another. One activity that elicited strong emotions was a game called Playfair, designed to help freshmen get to know each other by shedding their inhibitions. “I thought that Playfair was really fun,” Amy Wyron said. “And that’s actually where I made my friends that I’ve been hanging out with for the last couple of days.”

From Wednesday through Friday, buses stopped serving East at 9:30 p.m. Thus, freshmen who attended a charity basketball game at Cameron Indoor Stadium Friday night found themselves stranded on West. “After the basketball game, we were waiting for like an hour,” Doug Miller said. Some believed that the limited bus schedule was an effort to force students to stay on East Campus. Wyron, who attended the basketball game, resented what she perceived to be a heavy-handed approach. “Plan your activities, but don’t make us do them,”

she said. Students noted that the success of orientation was largely determined by the helpfulness of their FAC. Asgedom felt his FAC was particularly knowledgeable about some ofthe basic issues of life at Duke, but other students were left with questions. “There were some day-to-day issues that were left unanswered,” Xander Chen said. “Like where do I get my hair cut? I don’t know that. Where are ATMs aside from the one here [in the East Campus Union]? Where are the clubs?”

MAJOR SPEAKERS from page 5 tions] or some of the other programming groups that deliver key activities to students,” Moneta said. “This will be part of our analysis ofthe student activities fee as a continuation of last year’s discussions with student leaders.” Panuccio added that in past years, the committee has brought in six speakers, but since speaking fees have recently skyrocketed, a more realistic target is four. The chair’s first priority will be to bring in a bigname speaker for Parents’ Weekend October 25 to 27, Panuccio said. In 2001, families and community members packed Page Auditorium to hear Walesa speak. “We need someone who can be dedicated to the job,” said Panuccio, who chaired the committee two years ago. “It takes an enormous amount of work” The position will be advertised this week around website and on the Union’s campus (www.union.duke.edu), and Panuccio will hold interviews for all interested applicants next week.

Hntsa Asgedom said that although Playfair “wasn’t

the coolest thing ever,” it achieved the desired effect, since it encouraged “bonding over making fun of it.” A common complaint about orientation was the dearth of buses between East and West Campuses.

The police chief circus

The

last several weeks have seen the search for a new Durham police chief transform from a competition among three seemingly qualified candidates into a rollercoaster of scandal and public embarrassment. First, City Manager Marcia Conner dropped Interim Chief Steve Chalmers from consideration, despite the support ofthe City Council, after finding out that he was less than forthcoming about a 1982 domestic assault charge. Gregory Watkins, a retired deputy chief from Kansas City, Mo., resigned last week after Conner chose him, due to his own background of alleged domestic assault. Now, the lone finalist officially in consideration, William Carcara from Louisville, Ky, may not even take the job. City officials need to act now to ensure a solid direction for the Durham Police Department. Hopefully today’s meeting between Conner and the City Council will yield productive results. Both Conner and the city council must learn several lessons from this debacle. The Oldani Group, the private consulting firm hired by the city to conduct the search, deserves a hefty share of the blame. That this supposedly professional and experienced company did not discover the candidates’ criminal backgrounds earlier in the process is ridiculous. The city should hold Oldani accountable for its failure, which hurts the reputation of the city’s government and police and could also have a real, lasting impact on the safety ofDurham citizens. Watkins’ withdrawal was unfortunate, but little can be done about his candidacy now. Carcara remains a viable candidate, and, as several City Council members have noted, Chalmers also should remain in contention. His explanation for not revealing his arrest is plausible enough and two decades have passed since the arrest. Officials overreacted by questioning his integrity, which he has built as a member of the Durham Police Department. Over the next weeks, Conner should consider both Carcara and Chalmers. However, the rest of this process should remain private. As it should be, the search has been very public with open forums for citizen input. But, when a search enters its hiring stages, public endorsements and speculation from City Council members and other officials are inappropriate. By expressing a preference for one candidate or another, City Council members turned the search into a circus, undermining the authority of the eventual chief. Moreover, speculation that Conner has already offered the job to Carcara creates expectations that could go unfulfilled. Regardless of who takes the helm of the Durham police force, Conner and City Council members should stand behind him. Facing a crime problem that shows little sign of improving, the people ofDurham need an experienced officer running their police department, not a politician.

Martha Ezzard Commentary bled at Atlanta’s Southern Center for Human Rights by director Stephen Bright would be the envy of law firms in any American city. Fourteen interns from the nation’s top law schools streamed through the doors this summer for a chance to help represent the indigent in death penalty appeals, to correct inhumane conditions in prisons, to get the mentally ill to services rather than jail. Like staff attorney Marion Chartofif, a Stanford graduate, some will find public interest law the only way to pursue the ideals that prompted them to go to law school in the first place. “I don’t think it’s fair for the poor to be subjected to a different standard of justice,” she says. Sanjay Chhablani, who enrolled in Bright’s

money teaching seminars or courses at local law schools.) For Singleton, one of the rewards is clients who have taught him every human being has redeeming qualities. In Wallace Fugate, a 52year-old carpenter executed Aug. 16, Singleton admired a man grounded in work and community. During his years on death row, Fugate made eight afghans for the center’s lawyers and paralegals. Sure, a man who makes afghans and serves his community could still be a murderer, but that’s not the point. The right to a constitutional process is. Convicted of shooting his ex-wife, Fugate, though he had no criminal record, was sentenced to death in one of the shortest murder trials in Georgia history. Conflicting testimony and facts pointing to the possibility of an accidental shooting were never raised by his appointed lawyers, and he was too poor to hire experienced ones. The state Supreme Court passed the buck to a scandal-ridden parole board, which conducted a hasty review behind closed doors and then refused to commute the sentence. What did Bright do after the exhausting ordeal? He wrote e-mails in the middle of the night, praising his staff, especially a UCLA intern who uncovered the case that persuaded the state Supreme Court to delay the execution at least until the parole board had all of its five seats filled. You’d think Bright, who grew up on a farm Kentucky, would bum out from the intensiin ty of his work, but he seems only to draw more energy from it. Oh, he has enemies—all of the right ones, including overzealous prosecutors who accuse him of standing up for criminals. Bright has won plenty of awards, but perhaps his finest moment was persuading the U.S. Supreme Court to set aside a death sentence given to a young black man by an allwhite jury. The 1988 decision was written by the late Justice Thurgood Marshall. In his message to an exhausted staff after the marathon effort to save Fugate’s life, Bright wrote: “We will, as we always have, get past the sadness, disappointment and anger of this moment.... And we will carry on until, as Eleanor Roosevelt once said, ‘our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it.’

criminal law course at Yale when he was a freshman, took a $lOO,OOO pay cut when, he left Skadden Arps law firm in Chicago three years ago. “For me, it is a dream job,” he said of the chance to litigate constitutional rights. “It’s the stock options that keep me here,” teases Palmer Singleton, a trial lawyer who has worked with Bright for more than 15 years. He remembers when he was lucky to draw $l,OOO per month. Now that the center has more reliable funding, Bright pays his lawyers $32,000. That’s about a fourth of what 32-year-old Lisa Rung’s New York University law school classmates are making. Rung, though, says her work is a lot more rewarding. She filed suit last week in federal court to relieve crowding at Tutwiler Women’s Prison in Alabama. The prison, her suit charges, houses four times more inmates than it was built to hold, and in 100-plus-degree temperatures. Bright himself is often surprised that such top talent hangs around for such low pay. (Though he doesn’t talk about it, he pays himself no more than his lawyers get, while the $120,000 or so he receives from teaching criminal law courses each year at Harvard and Yale is sent directly from the schools to sup- Martha Ezzard's column is syndicated by the port the center.

Commentary

MONDAY, AUGUST 26,2002 »PAGE 27

What is a university? Duke has failed to achieve the mission laid out by its founders A curious thing happened a few days ago. While walking across the Chapel loop during the last quiet days of summer, I stopped and read the imprinted metal plaque that sits midway along that path, directly in front of the aH* Chapel. I had never read it before and was surTgpP Mar-'I prised to find that it says the following: *

“The aims of Duke

University are to assert a English faith in the eternal union The Critical Theory ofknowledge and religion set forth in the teaching and character

of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; to advance learning in all things of truth; to defend scholarship against all false notions and ideals; to develop a Christian love of freedom and truth; to promote a sincere spirit oftolerance: to discourage all partisan and sectarian strife, and to render the largest permanent service to the state, the nation, and the church. Unto these ends shall the efforts of this university always be administered.” Having reflected much in the last three years about my own dissatisfaction with this “University”—the fractured incoherence of most program of study, the shallowness of student life, the mediocrity of student interests, the mendacity of our administrative officials, the triteness of our campus controversies and politically correct bulls-t wherever you look—the words on the plaque astounded me, because they provided the first conclusive evidence I have found that, in addition to being a failure by my standards, this “University” actually fails by those standards it has set for itself. If the passage above indeed describes how the efforts ofDuke University are to be administered, it seems abundantly

clear that we can no longer call ourselves Duke University. What I seriously propose, then, is that we change our name. This proposal should stand regardless of whether one likes Jesus, truth, the state, unity or even tobacco. Duke University should change its name simply and honestly because we no longer deserve it. Some will insist that I am overreacting. They may argue, and it is at least initially plausible, that we do indeed have the fragments lying around to construct an adequate semblance of a university. We can leave the Christian stuff to the Divinity School, exempt the Literature Program from the “truth clause,” claim that identity politics unify all in the long run, and pretend that public policy is a real discipline. That the undergraduate curriculum “matrix” and advising system leave most students with an education that appears to be assembled by a random number generator is not a serious problem, because the resources to achieve a satisfactory education are there for anyone who already understands what a satisfactory education would entail. Thankfully, a decent social life is not required by the above passage, so no one need be encumbered with the task of explaining why we don’t have one. We can borrow the unity and truth from the hard sciences, have the Orwellian Office of Institutional Equity provide all the enlightened tolerance we need, and the Christian love of freedom—well, as long as we mean freedom of expression, we’re okay. However, this is a project, which, despite my most charitable attempt of parodying it, just doesn’t work. We are not Duke University, and even the title “University” is dubious.

What, then, are we? What sort of new name should we adopt? Here are a few

suggestions: Since most students are primarily here to be trained for a decent job upon graduation, we can drop the whole “liberal arts” and “forminggreat-minds-by-

Here’s a little special sauce to brightThe second weekend of the year is always one of the best. Why, you ask? The parties are legendary; the excuse “I haven’t read the alcohol policy” still stands a chance; you have food points. THE SECOND Actually, let’s not mislead any fresh- pi TTsJTU A]SJ men, especially the guys. The parties Monday, Monday are only legendary because the upperclassmen get to see some seriously awkward situations. This is way beyond the awkwardness of getting caught looking at porn with the lights off and your pants down (sorry again freshman guys) or realizing that walking around with your keys hanging off your neck really isn’t that cool. Yep. It’s time to party. Two apologies in one paragraph is a bit much, especially for the Monday, Monday column. That’s a lot ofwasted space. No more. The following will hopefully evoke painful memories of doors slamming in your face when all you wanted was a relatively cold Busch Light and a chance to prove your coolness. If you have no such memories, let me be the first to congratulate you on being cute and female. But if you only hooked up with that guy because he gave beers to you and your hallmates/friends/group of 30 kids from your dorm, you shouldn’t be too proud of yourself... (slut). Did you tell Mom about that one? I really didn’t think so. Here’s a little skit documenting the first rocking frat bash of the year. We’ll pick Sigma Epsilon Chi (think, you stupid Terp, what does that spell?) as the

arbitrary location for this group of four to learn about Duke. Okay, so that’s not really a fraternity. Might as well pick somebody you can laugh at. Freshman Guy 1: Hey, I think there’s a party here. wonder which frat it i5.... There are two sets of letters I by the same door: Delta something and that one that was on Dawson’s Creek last year. Ahh, who cares, let’s go get wasted! Freshman Hottie 1; I’m glad we all live together. It’s so cool to be getting drunk at a frat party. Freshman Guy 2: Yeah man, we used to get drunk all the time in high school. It was awesome. It’s cool that we have so much in common. I mean, we all like

to get wasted. Freshman Hottie 2; My sister says they’re lame, but she’s not even in a sorority. Besides, my FAC lives here, and he said he would give us alcohol. He’s cute too. FGI, approaching door. This is so cool. I hope I find a hot senior chick to hook up with. It’s so cool that these DukeCards open the doors to all the dorms. Hotties: We have to go visit this one guy we know that lives here. We’ll be right back. FG2: Hey, there’s two guys in orange t-shirts. Are they the bartenders? Party Monitor: You guys looking for beer? FGI: Yeah, and chicks. Know where we can find any? PM: The only way I can tolerate being a party monitor is to get blitzed, so I just shotgunned my last ten. You didn’t bring any girls with you? FG2: There were a couple with us earlier, but they protect their bodies like George Bush protects the environment. PM: You’re not allowed to make fun of Republicans in fraternity sections. It’s in the IFC charter and the honor code. You’re lucky I don’t send

you to Nan. Get the hell out of here! FG2, outside: Crap! They took our girls and didn’t even give us any beer. FGI: Yeah, we gotta join a frat. It’s the only way we’ll ever fulfill our dreams of living with rich white guys and scoring with drunk freshman chicks. Wanna walk back to East? I don’t think it’s too far. Repeat process for next four months. And that’s about how things usually work out for the freshmen guys, so girls, take it easy on ’em. Lucky for them, Duke has begun instituting changes to protect them. Thanks to the brilliant leadership of Larry Moneta, students like that unfriendly party monitor don’t have to join selective living groups to live on West Campus their sophomore year. All sophs, even independent males, are guaranteed prime real estate: The lakefront property near rainy day West Campus walkways. This genius plan solves the problem of those poor independent guys being assigned to Trent. Unfortunately, Dukies aren’t complete morons. People have started to realize that they’re just going to get screwed junior year. There’s a shocker. Bang, click, whirr, apparently you got in for a reason. So the selective groups retain their appeal. The administration should love this, because they’re trying hard to “not kick fraternities off campus” (evidenced by their theft of all fraternity letters from the outside walls of sections). Keep in mind that this is coming from the people who say the Blue Zone is safe because it has gate arms. You know these idiots had Enron stock.

Women’s soccer downs Pride 2-0 in exhibition

Bognanno, Marshall score goals in easy win, await nationally-ranked Tennessee next Although Duke’s win was only in an exhibition game, its highly touted freshman class contributed early, scoring both goals for Blue Devils.

By PAUL DORAN The Chronicle Duke 2 In its first and only exhibition match of the Greensboro 0 season, the women’s soccer team beat up on the Greensboro College Pride 2-0 Friday night at Koskinen Stadium. Unlike the normal 45 minute halfs that usually occur in soccer, however, this game was played with experimental rules which translated to three 30 minute periods. Freshman Carmen Bognanno got things started in the 12th minute when she beat Pride goalkeeper Angie Rudy. Bognanno, a member of the class of 2006 which was ranked as one of the 10 best in the country, had won control of a loose ball on the right side, before turning around and blasting home a goal. Duke’s second goal came when Shelly Marshall, another freshman, snuck one in the 59th minute, or 29th minute of the third period. Marshall used a nice feed from Lauren Simel to grab the goal. That was the last score of the night as neither team was able to find the back of the net in the third period. “These freshman will be able to contribute both on and off the field,” head coach Robbie Church said in a statement. “They are a well rounded class and will provide and immediate impact.” For the most part, Duke played solid midfield—an area Church had said would have a lot of depth this season—and strong defense as they held Greensboro to only three shots. Goalie Katie Straka registered two saves while playing for less than half the game. Tara Walker then came in for the final 50 minutes, but did not face a shot in which she was forced to make a save.

week’s matches. The Blue Devils also looked good up front taking 14 shots of their own, but only converting on two. Duke opens its regular season next weekend against nationally-ranked Tennessee Friday, Aug. 30 at 5 p.m. in Koskinen Stadium. The Blue Devils will then travel to Texas to face the Longhorns Sunday, Sept. 1 at 7 p.m.

3 The men’s soccer team won its second exhibi0 tion match of the seaUNC-W son defeating the UNC Wilmington Seahawks 3-0 Sunday night at UNC-W Soccer Stadium. Striker Jordan Cila scored twice and Owoicho Adogwa added a third as the Blue Devils outshot the Seahawks 16-5. The scoring began in the 10th minute when Cila caught a feed from freshman forward Danny Kramer before pounding it in the back of the net a goal. Cila and Kramer again hooked up in the 32nd minute as the junior used his head to knock in a loose ball. Offense on both sides then lapsed before Adogwa blazed by his defender in the 67th minute and slammed the ball to the right side of the net, scoring Duke’s third on the night. Wilmington only got offfive shots during the game, none of which were a serious threat to goalie Justin Trowbridge, who did not even have to register a save. In the their first exhibition game, Duke

Top-ranked recruit Ndudi Ebi visits Blue Devils Six-foot-10 Houston native puts Duke on short list with Texas, Arizona, Indiana and By TYLER ROSEN The Chronicle

Cameron Indoor Stadium was a planetarium Friday night. Countless stars from Duke’s past were on display at the charity basketball game—including six stars whose jerseys hang opposite Duke’s three national championship banners. But tucked quietly in the crowd was a potential star of the future. Ndudi Ebi, a 6-foot-10 senior at Westbury Christian in Houston, Texas, was attending the game as part of his official visit to Duke this weekend. The big forward, who is listed at only 195 pounds, sat next to the Duke team,behind the home bench during the festivities. “He’s a great player,” said Seth Davis, a college basketball analyst at Sports Illustrated. “I don’t think Duke has ever had a player like him. I’m not saying he’d be the best Duke player ever, but I don’t think they’ve ever had a rebounder/shotblocker like this guy. He’s a tremendous talent and he plays bigger than he is—and he’s pretty big.” Not quite dazzled by the array of NBA talent on the floor—he worked at Michael Jordan’s Flight School camp and was nonchalant about meeting ‘his airness’—Ebi was impressed by what the event in Cameron said about the program. “It shows me they have wonderful tradition and they care about their players and they’re really dedicated to their guys,” Ebi said. Ranked second by Dave Telep of Thelnsiders.corn’s rankings for the

class of 2003 behind Sports Illustrated cover boy Lebron James —the near-certain first pick of the 2003 NBA draft— Ebi averaged 23 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks per game as a junior. On the court, Ebi is an athletic defender and rebounder. “I pretty much do everything,” he said. “For the last years, I’ve been limited as a player, so I’m looking for a system to showcase my talent, because I’m ready to show everybody what I can really do. When I’m given the opportunity, all of my game can come out. “I’m versatile. I’m a one through five at the defensive end and a one through five on the offensive end, but I still have a lot of work to do. Hopefully I can go to a program that will help me develop my perimeter skills and develop my strengths so I can be versatile a little bit better.” Although it is unlikely the big man will see any minutes at guard in college, Davis believes he will be able to play small forward in college if need be. “In some respects he’s raw, but he’s so good it’s hard to think of him as raw,” Davis said. “It’s just that he’s got so much better to get. He won’treach his potential until after he’s through college.” College may never see Ebi, said Davis, who believes the NBA will be an option for the high schooler. But, Ebi would be immediately valuable to Duke. “At the defensive end, he’d be an instant impact player,” Davis said. “His offense could still use some polish, but that’s not uncommon for high school big men. He’s just flat out great.”

A couple of unearned runs in the fifth inning, along with solid work by Luis De Los Santos and two relievers lifted the Durham Bulls to a 4-3 win Saturday over the Richmond Braves in the International League. Jason Smith led off the fifth inning with an infield single and Paul Hoover followed with a single into right field. Durham loaded the bases when Richmond starter Trey Hodges misplayed Brooks Badeaux’s sacrifice bunt. After Rocco Baldelli popped out, Jason Tyner scored Smith with an in-

field grounder, and Damean Rolls drove in Hoover on an infield hit. The Bulls also scored on Baldelli’s fourth inning single and Smith’s sixth inning sacrifice fly. De Los Santos (8-2) held Richmond to three hits and one run over the first 6 1/3 innings. An error by Smith followed by an RBI double by Travis Wilson and a run-scoring single by Damon Hollins

Juan shining moment: Dixon d � Once hated in Cameron, former Maryland star Juan Dixon returned to cheers from the crowd and put on an impressive performance. In the 2001-2002 college basketball

season, superstars Jason Williams, Carlos Boozer and Mike Dunleavy were supposed to lead Duke to a national championship; but in April it was a scrawny guard, who was only lightly re-

cruited out of high school, cutting down the nets after carrying his team to the national championship. Friday night Dunleavy and Shane Battier returned to Cameron Indoor Stadium for the first time since leaving early and graduating, respectively. But again, it was the scrawny, scrappy Juan Dixon walking away with the laurels. Dixon dropped 40 points on 16-of-30 shooting and grabbed nine rebounds as his white team cruised to a 165-157 victory. He led his team with class, skill and hustle rarely V seen in a charity exhibition game. Perhaps Dixon was motivated by T lyler a desire to impress White Rosen Doug Collins, his

small cluster of Cameron Crazies standing behind the basket began using their usual techniques to distract Dixon. Their actions elicited a smile and two made free throws.

“I’ve been shooting free throws here for four years now,” Dixon said. “I think I have about 90 percent here, so I wasn’t going to let their screaming get to me. That’s why I smiled a little bit.” The Crazies saw the smile and they knew, but they’ve known for a while. They knew when Dixon laid 31 on Duke in Cameron his sophomore season and they knew for sure when he came back and dropped 28 the next year. “He always plays well in Cameron,” Battier said. “I’m glad I don’t have to play him anymore in this place.” Of all the people in Cameron Friday night, none knew better than Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski, who invited Dixon to play in the first place. “I love Juan Dixon,” said Krzyzewski, who last season described Dixon as his favorite player not wearing a Duke uniform. “I’ve always loved him. I think it shows the type of guy he is, not just type of player he is, that when we asked him to come, he said, ‘yeah, I want to come right away.’” Dixon returned to Cameron to the sound of a loud ovation from the Blue Devil faithful. His wasn’t as loud as Battier’s or Christian Laettner’s, but it was a genuine tribute to a man and a basketball player who is no longer a rival. “Our crowd has always respected respectable people and great players,”

Krzyzewski said. “When the two of them are combined, then they really go for him.”

also be coaching him in the NBA with the Washington Wizards. At this point, Dixon doesn’t have much more to prove to Collins. “Juan is a tremendous player,” said the father of Duke assistant coach Chris Collins. “We are so lucky in Washington to have him. He is a tiger. He has a heart as big as any athlete I’ve ever seen. I’m so happy he’s with us.” Dixon’s heart is big, but his body certainly is not. With 164 pounds spread over his 6-foot-3 frame, Dixon is considered too small to be a shooting guard in the NBA. He’s heard doubters say he was too small since he came out of Calvert Hall High School and he’s been beating the odds since a childhood of privation in inner-city Baltimore. He lost his parents to AIDS during high school, but went on to graduate high school and the University of Maryland. His senior year in college he was an All-American and ACC Player ofthe Year. During Maryland’s national championship run, he became the leading scorer in school history. But all the while, he was too small. This offseason, Dixon has been asked to switch to point guard. Some pundits have speculated that Dixon isn’t sufficiently quick, a good enough passer or strong enough to make it in the League. Those pundits don’t know Juan Dixon. Veteran NBA point guard Darrel Armstrong knew Juan Dixon as he was falling backward after being faked and watching Dixon race on to an uncontested layup. Corey Maggette knew Juan Dixon as he watched the rookie dart in front of his inbounds pass, race down the court and bring down the house with a dunk. The whole Blue team knew Juan Dixon after it cut the White team’s lead to six with 1:10 remaining and 164 pound frame elevated and launched a game clinching three-pointer. With 10 seconds left, Dixon went to the foul line to shoot two free throws. A

ALL STARS from The Chronicle page 1 It was Peterson, however, who took the most long range chances, attempting 25 during the game, 10 of which he made. His trigger-happy mentality even elicited a joke from Krzyzewski, who said at half

time that Peterson had taken more shots in the first halfthan Tom Izzo, his college coach at Michigan State, let him take in eight games. On the opposite spectrum, the game was also loaded with flashy under-thehoop moves. Dunleavy, who was wearing No. 10, his new number with Golden a few nifty State, had behind-the-back style lay-ups, while Maggette used his time with the ball to put on a dunking clinic. However, in a flashback to his days with Duke in 1999 when he broke away for a slam and then slapped the backboard only to received a technical foul, the Clipper took an alley-oop from Peterson, drove in home and did a chin-up on the rim, only to receive a technical. However, it was all in fun as the basket still counted and the other team received no shots. In another amusing incident that received a chuckle from the fans, Lowe used a strategic 30 second timeout at the end of the first quarter to set up a play for the Blue team. Instead of countering with a defensive move in the huddle, Collins told his entire team to bend over and slap the floor—Steve Wojciechowski or Chris Duhon style—something they did right before play resumed. “The game was a big thrill for me,” Battier said. “Since I missed it last year—and I was pretty upset about it—it was great for me to come back this year and have my name announced one more time in Cameron Indoor Stadium, come back with my jersey up in the rafters. It was a big thrill for me. I’m really happy I was here tonight.” White 165, Blue 157 FINAL Blue White Blue Laettner

By RONALD BLUM The Associated Press

NEW YORK Owners immediately slammed baseball players Saturday for making what management called backward proposals on the key issues of revenue sharing and a luxury tax. Just six days before the union’s Aug. 30 strike deadline, the sides appeared to be on a collision course for baseball’s ninth work stoppage since 1972. “We could not have been more disappointed in the proposal we received,” said Rob Manfred, the owners’ chief labor lawyer. “This is raw regressive bargaining.” Players said their proposat 1 als were a positive step and Major League Baseball ! moved closer toward the clubs, and didn’t understand why management publicly

Fehr said. Manfred accused players of backtracking on increased revenue sharing, because the union’s proposal Saturday phased in the increases. Owners want the entire amount of the increase to start next year, which players think would cripple the richest teams. While owners want $268 million transferred next year from the wealthiest teams to the poorest ones, up from about $169 million under the current formula, the union proposed transfers of $172.3 million in 2003, $195.6 million in

middle-markets teams. Fehr said the sides had discussed phase-ins for at least the past one and one half years. The union thinks that’s important because the very richest teams, such as the New York Yankees, would have to pay more next year, even though the overall transfer amount

wouldn’t change “The parties have discussed for a long time that when agreements are eventually reached, changes will have to be phased in over time,” Fehr said. “They clearly understand this would be phased in. Therefore, I am at a loss to explain what this is all about.” The union also moved $5 million toward the owners on the luxury tax, designed to slow spending by high-payroll teams, but Manfred said that was far short of what owners want because it would affect only two teams next

Williams. “She already had attitude, which I like,” King says. And Williams’ younger sister Serena? King doesn’t recall much, other than that Serena stood to the side while Venus worked on volleying. After quite a bit of time in her sister’s shadow, Serena Williams has come to the fore, becoming the No. 1 player in her family—and the world. She’s the Williams who’ll try to win a third straight Grand Slam title when the U.S. Open starts Monday. “I wanted to change. I was tired of being at a certain level. When Venus became No. 1, that motivated me,” Serena said. “I’m more determined than I was.” By beating Venus in the finals ofthe French Open and Wimbledon and going 38-4 with five titles in 2002, Serena overtook her sister in the rankings for the first time and is seeded No. 1 at the Open. Venus, who beat Serena in last year’s prime-time final to successfully defend the title, is seeded No. 2. They only can meet in the final. The 2001 U.S. Open ended two days before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, and tournament organizers will mark the near-anniversary with ceremonies featuring firefighters and police. The tourney’s red-white-andblue logo has a picture of the Statue of Liberty, and a U.S. flag rescued from the twin towers and later raised by troops in Afghanistan will fly over Arthur Ashe Stadium. There will be extra police, and fans can’t bring backpacks or video cameras. Lleyton Hewitt, the defending champion, is seeded No. 1, and coming off a victory at Wimbledon—he is as close to a dominant player as there is in the more wideopen men’s game. His constant retrieving and stinging returns make him the favorite, with 2000 champion Marat Safin, young gun Andy Roddick and two-time winner Andre Agassi among the contenders. Pete Sampras, a four-time champion and runner-up to Hewitt

and Safin, enters with a 20-16 match record this year and a title drought that stretches to July 2000. There are plenty of women who’ll provide story lines and slick shots during the year’s last Grand Slam tournament: ’9B champ Lindsay Davenport, out of action from November to July because of a knee injury; ’97 winner Martina Hingis, working her way back from May ankle surgery; three-time major champion Jennifer Capriati, who can slug the ball just as hard as Team Williams; Monica Seles, looking for one last major title. But right now the sport is dominated by two women

named Williams.

As fifth-seeded Jelena Dokic said, “You just have to hope they have a bad day.” While Serena tries to become the first player to win three consecutive majors since Steffi Graf in 1996,Venus aims at a rarer feat: No woman has won three U.S. Opens in'a row since Chris Evert’s four from 1975-78. The sisters “are a level above everyone else, and that wasn’t true only a few years ago,” CBS Sports analyst Mary Carillo said. ‘Venus has been a very good match player for a couple of years now. Even when she didn’t play well, she competed well, and that is the single biggest thing Serena has learned to do this year. “Serena’s had some rocky matches and hung tough in them. That’s a gift that she gave herself just over the last year.” Serena, whose first major title came at the 1999 U.S. Open, acknowledges she takes practice more seriously now. Just this week, recovering from left knee tendinitis that forced her to pull out of a tuneup event in Montreal, she was in Florida working with famed coach Nick Bollettieri. “My game has matured, and mentally, I’ve just matured to another level,” Serena said. “That is a major factor in it. Some people mature really late.” Not that she’s all that old: 21 next month. See US OPEN on page 14

The Dolphins won a Super Bowl at Rice Stadium in 1974, played a pulsating Monday night game against the Houston Oilers in 1978 and Saturday rolled to a 24-3 victory over the expansion Houston Texans. It was the first game played in $449 million Reliant Stadium before the largest crowd to see a football game in Houston, 69,432. The fans had their fun despite the loss. Ricky Williams scored the first touchdown for Miami (1-2). “I thought we were real efficient on offense,” Miami coach Dave Wannstedt said. “Special teams gave us a chance with good field position. I thought for the most part, we cleaned up the penalties pretty good.” Texans

Rivers was 15-for-24 for 276 yards against a defense that was ranked 18th in the nation a season ago. He has thrown at least one TD pass in 21 of his 25 starts. “The work I did over the summer and in the spring paid off with keeping my eyes downfield while I’m scrambling” Rivers said. “I didn’t get my head down or caught on one guy.” The Lobos, making their first trip east of the Mississippi River since 1998, were 6-5 last season after finishing

State’s defense, gaining just 72 yards in the first half to fall behind by three touchdowns as the Wolfpack won their sixth straight opener. “The first half we played like a high school football team,” New Mexico coach Rocky Long said. “We had receivers wondering wide open, we had guys blitzing wrong gaps, we couldn’t convert on a third down and we were a very immature football team.” Rivers was on his game, driving the Wolfpack 80,96 and 89 yards in the opening halffor a 21-0 lead in a game that was

New Mexico’s defense helped the Wolfpack go up by 14 early in the second quarter. N.C. State had driven into field goal range at the 31 before Rivers was sacked by Charles Moss, but the linebacker was called for a facemask penalty to keep the drive alive. Then, one play after a holding call against the Wolfpack made it first-and-20, a pass-interference penalty set up N.C. State at the 15. Rivers capped the long drive a minute delayed 45 minutes by lightning. later with his short run. “We knew he was a good player and Peterson’s diving TD catch on a slant he didn’t disappoint us,” Long said. 4:31 before the half came one play after Rivers’ scoring passes were 21 and 12 Rivers scrambled out of the pocket and yards to Bryan Peterson—who has caught hit the senior on a 28-yard play along at least one pass in 26 straight games—- the right sideline. and a 50-yarder to Jerricho Cotchery with New Mexico drove to the N.C.
