THE CHRONICLE

Luck was the football team’s lady Saturday night. Although Frank Sinatra was not present to send the Blue Devils off into the night, Duke left Wallace Wade Stadium victorious for the second week in a row. Duke (2-1) survived a late fourth quarter surge by Rice (0-2) before watching Owls kicker Brandon Skeen boot a 34-yard field goal wide left to clinch the win. “I said in the ACC [preseason media conference] that we needed to get in a close game early and win it,” head coach Carl Franks said. ‘We have

had a lot of bad things happen

to us.

We have been

getting some good pressure on kicks, but he [Skeen] just missed it. I am glad it worked out that we won it.” Blue Devil kicker Brent Garber opened overtime with a 30-yard field goal through the uprights that gave Duke the only three points it would need for the win. Blue Devil fans were delighted after Duke won back-to-back games for the first time in five years. The victory last week came against Western Carolina, a division I-AA squad that traveled to Durham, N.C. SEE FOOTBALL IN SPORTSWRAP ON PAGE 4

While acknowledging some advantages to members-only parties, many from the greek community have expressed opposition to the idea that the administration would discourage open parties on campus. Administrators have not suggested any sort of rule that would make parties members-only, but Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta noted at a Duke Student Government forum Sept. 2 that he has been encouraging the greek community to make parties smaller and more low-key. “Ten years ago the greek community controlled Duke social life,” he said at the forum, which was attended by a collection of administrators, police officers and students. “Recently I’ve told the greek world that their parties should be for their members. It just means smaller, more private parties.” Many fraternity presidents said they were unaware of this recommendation and that for the immediate future, they would continue to hold open parties, as well

as members-only events A common sentiment was that open fraternity parties benefited the general University community as well as the host organization. “There are a whole lot of Duke students who enjoy the greek scene who aren’t members of the greek scene,” said Mike Thornton, a junior and president of Beta Theta Pi. “We enjoy having a lot of new peo-

ple come.”

The advantages of membersonly parties, as described by Assistant Dean for Greek Life Todd Adams, are generally practical in nature. “From a risk* management perspective, if you know who your guests are or who’s in attendance... you have some semblance of who is there and you have some control over the numbers,” Adams said. “When you have a completely open event, you don’t know ifyou’re going to have 100 or 300 people. You might not even know the people in attendance, so if something happens, who’s responsible?” Adams also said fraternity SEE PARTIES ON PAGE 6

Coolers in tow, Iron Dukes revel in tailgating by

Jeff Finch

THE CHRONICLE

Harry Kledaras and his twin brother Connie leaned back in their lawn chairs while Harry’s wife scooped hefty portions of her homemade potato salad onto their plates. They have already loaded their table with Diet Cokes, deviled eggs and subs from Jersey Mike’s that explode with lettuce. “You heard the joke that if you leave two Duke football tickets in an unlocked car, you’ll come back and find four!” said Connie. He is slight in stature and wears white pants with red and blue stripes, a navy blue rain jacket and a cap. “You want some Diet Coke?” he asked, then whispered, “It might be spiked.” Harry and Connie graduated from Duke in 1956, back when they were known on campus as the ‘Raleigh Twins’ and the football team regularly had a winning record. ‘We come back now because we like to suffer,” joked Harry. The brothers used to come up for the football games, but now they come up for the tailgate. The ritual of spending an afternoon outside and sharing a meal with friends has become the traditional way to announce the start of another fall. By four o’clock Saturday, the Iron Duke parking lots were half full. A small crowd surrounded the back ofeach car, with food and drink in hand. Some men flipped burgers on miniature grills while visiting with old friends and alumni from the area. Their kids ran wild, darting be-

throwing a Duke football over the adults’ heads—and sometimes into their picnic tables. It wouldn’t make a difference if Duke lost to Rice; the Iron Dukes would still arrive at the Blue Zone the next weekend in their Limited Edition SUVs, BMWs, and sometimes, full catering trucks. They hail mostly from the Raleigh-Durham area, bringing greasy boxes of Bojangles fried chicken, grills for cooking the necessary burgers and dogs and, of course, coolers stocked with diet drinks, wines and an afternoon’s supply ofbrews. These are the Iron Dukes, the faithful Duke alumni and patrons who donate thousands of dollars annually to Duke athletics. Their donations provide 235 scholarships for student athletes, a total that comes in at around $9.6 million. Their gifts win them the right to season tickets in Cameron Indoor Stadium—but their commitment to Duke athletics goes beyond basketball. “Part of the reason we come is the optimism.... There’s always a chance we could win,” said Anders Hall, ‘93. “Do you want one?” he asked, snagging another Oktoberfest from his cooler and popping the cap off with a bottle opener that belted out the Duke fight song. “We should win five or six games this year,” he said, echoing the hope for victory that underlies all tailgating. As game time approached, the atmosphere was relaxed but festive. Packs of fans wandered from one car tween cars and

Bush likely to seek more Iraq funds by

Jennifer Loven

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Vice President Dick Cheney hinted Sunday that President George W. Bush’s administration would seek more money than the $B7 billion already requested to pay mainly for postwar costs in Iraq. He also said the administration does not know when the U.S. military presence in Iraq will end. “I don’t think anybody can say with absolute certainty at this point,” Cheney said. Amid a rising U.S. casualty count in Iraq and continuing attacks and other resistance, the administration has faced criticism for its postwar strategy. Democratic presidential candidates and others

have said too little planning was done on how to rebuild the country and how to pay for it. The White House says it will soon ask Congress to approve the $B7 billion for military and reconstruction activities both in Iraq and in Afghanistan, with the bulk of the request earmarked for Iraq. That too has come under severe question in Congress. Asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” if that would be the final such request, Cheney replied: “I can’t say that. It’s all we think we’ll need for the foreseeable future, for this year.” On CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld would not go

even that far. He said consultations are underway with lawmakers, and how long the $B7 billion will last has not been determined. “It’s a process that’s being handled by the president and the Office of Management and Budget,” Rumsfeld said. “I think that after those consultations with Congress, we’ll have the answer to your

question.”

Cheney defended the request. “What’s the cost if we don’t act? What’s the cost if we do nothing? What’s the cost if we don’t succeed with respect to our current operation in Iraq?” he asked. “I think that’s far higher than getting the job done right here.”

Pope completes tiring trip to Slovakia by

Frank Bruni

NEW YORK TIMES NEWS SERVICE

ROME His grueling schedule complete, a visibly exhausted Pope John Paul II returned here Sunday night from a trip to Slovakia that demonstrated his desire to continue traveling .but sowed fresh doubts about whether he could. Over four days and across three regions in Slovakia, his appearances provided the most vivid examples yet of the heavy toll that Parkinson’s disease has taken on him. Some Vatican officials said privately that they wondered if the trip might signal a turning point of sorts for John Paul, 83, whose frequent journeys around the globe have defined his papacy.

In Slovakia, his 102nd foreign trip as pope, he struggled through his events, unable to support himself physically without help and often unable to squeeze his words out. In striking contrast to his performances during other trips in the last year, he did not once deliver the entirety or even the bulk of a planned sermon, turning parts of it over to someone else tp read. He did not try, at least in public, to stand or walk. But he did not substantially abbreviate his itinerary, and simply by appearing Sunday morning before tens of thousands of worshippers at an outdoor Mass in the Slovak capital, Bratislava, he was able to have an effect on them. He proclaimed a blessing to “the beloved Slovak people,” and they erupted in a mighty roar.

DUH under review after injuring baby From staff reports

For the second time in three months, Duke University Hospital is under review by federal officials after an infant suffered an injury while undergoing a critical procedure Aug. 31 in the intensive care nursery. The injury, the nature of which is currendy undisclosed, is non life-threatening and the infant, who is no longer at Duke, has a favorable prognosis, DUH officials said in a statement released Thursday. Investigators from the Division of Facility Services conducted a review of the hospital Sept. 5 and Sept. 8, following Duke’s voluntary notification on Sept. 3 of the incident to both the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, whom DFS represents, and the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, the Herald-Sun ofDurham reported. The patient’s identity is being withheld for confidentiality reasons, and Duke is working with DFS to ascertain the cause of the incident, according to a statement issued by William Fulkerson, chief executive officer of DUH, and Gail Shulby, director of accreditation and regulatory affairs. “Safeguards have already been put in place,” the statement reads. CMS recently conducted a review of the hospital following the mismatched organ transplant of 17year-old Jesica Santillan, who died in February. CMS found the hospital deficient in several areas and placed DUH in “immediate jeopardy” of losing participation rights in Medicare and Medicaid services. DUH also underwent further review after a June 2 incident in which another infant suffered first, second and third degree burns after a flash fire in the pediatric intensive care unit. CMS cleared DUH in late July. DUH also underwent similar review from JCAHO in response to the Santillan tragedy. JCAHO downgraded the hospital’s accreditation status from “Accreditation with Full Standards of Compliance” to “Accreditation with Requirements for Improvement” in March and found six problematic areas Duke needed to address. JCAHO conducted a follow-up survey June 20 and upgraded DUH’s status back to full compliance.

Freshmen travel 'lnto the City' by

Karen

Hauptman THE CHRONICLE

With more than a dozen eateries, a bookstore, grocery store, laundry facilities and work-study opportunities on campus, students feel they have little need to ever leave Duke’s grounds. Forays into Durham beyond Ninth Street are, for most undergraduates, few and far between, and many students feel little connection to the University’s hometown. More than 100 freshmen took steps to remedy that situation Saturday when they went “Into the City” as part of the Community Service Center’s annual first-year service day, now in its fifth year. This was the first year the program included a bus tour of Durham, which Tori Hogan, CSC student co-director, said was a successful addition. ‘This was a completely different year for Into the City because we added the component of the tour of Durham,” she said. “It wasn’t about getting [the students] to do a few hours of service, it was about getting them into the community.... It made it a very different experience for the students.” Freshman Joanna Shih, who volunteered Saturday at a local nursing home, said she appreciated the tour because it gave her a different perspective of the Durham community. “[The tour] was really fun because I got to see a lot of the places around Durham that I normally wouldn’t get to go because I don’t have a car,” she said. “I got to see a lot of places that were around close to campus that I could walk to.” Before boarding the buses for the half-hour tour, students heard remarks from President Nan Keohane and Mayor Bill Bell. “For a long period of time Durham has cared about Duke, and increasingly Duke is caring about Durham,” Keohane said. “We’re not a ‘Gothic Wonderland’—these are our neighbors.” Although Bell was unexpectedly delayed, he managed to greet the freshmen before they left for their sites, reiterating Keohane’s assertion of the importance of forming a relationship with the town. “He was basically encouraging [students] to explore Durham,” Hogan, a senior, said. “He also offered to them... that he was interested in forming better connections between Duke and Durham, offering himself as a resource for the new students as a means for getting to know their neighborhood.” Shih said Keohane’s and Bell’s speeches helped her feel connected to the larger community. “It was really nice that the mayor and President Keohane could take time out of their day to come talk to us,” she said. “When the mayor came it really made me feel

Sophomore Katherine Healy, a member of the CSC programming staff and the site leader for a sustainable gardening initiative, echoed Keohane’s sentiment that students could only benefit from developing a stronger relationship with the city ofDurham. We’re hoping to help the freshman class learn that there’s a lot of ways to get involved in the Durham community and help out because there’s a lot of people [who have] a negative view of Durham,” she said. ‘They really shouldn’t, and if they do, they should try to help out—it’s where they’re going to live for four years.”

Cartwright’s path to stardom began in a storytelling contest she entered with a Rudyard Kipling tale at age 10. “I told it in such away that when the camel fell down, it went, ‘Humph!’ and my hair came up,” she said. “It was very empowering to me. I could do that, and they would laugh.” Realizing she enjoyed the gift of comedy, Cartwright entered the world of community theater. At age 12, just shy offive feet, she toured with a group of high school performers, playing the role of a giant. When Cartwright entered high school, she joined the speech team, reading children’s stories. When several of the judges praised her variety of voices and suggested she go into communications, fate was in the works. “I used to fake hiccup attacks, fake sneezes, to skip class,” she said. ‘Then I decided to work in commercials....

sections on West Campus were ill-equipped for largescale parties. “Most of our sections in the commons rooms can barely accommodate the members themselves for a chapter meeting, much less groups of hundreds or more,” he said. However, Interfraternity Council President Brett Green, a senior, said the nature of sections also made members-only parties difficult, since controlling the numerous entrances to sections is a daunting task and blocking the doors creates a fire hazard.

“There should be a happy medium between stuff that is members-only and stuff that is campus-wide.” —Andrew Axelrod A, large number of both administrators and students said they felt that members-only parties should not be enforced by the administration at the expense of open parties. “There should be a happy medium between stuff that is members-only and stuff that is campus-wide,” said junior and Sigma Nu President Andrew Axelrod, who said his fraternity and others host a variety of members-only events that are less publicized in the University community. Moneta himself acknowledged there would be several drawbacks to creating a rule enforcing members-only parties, saying that such a move would be overly restricdve, would create an environment where following rules is the primary target and would sacrifice spontaneity and casualness. For Moneta, the point is to avoid a legislative environment and instead stress the wide variety of social options available for students. ‘The fundamental message is [this is] unlike the past, when the fraternities really felt an obligation to provide core entertainment for all students,” he said.

The alumni from the area all know each other, as their personal and professional lives have become intertwined since graduating from Duke. They come as much for the social atmosphere and friendships as for the games—they come to remember their time as Duke students. “There was a greater carnival atmosphere at the games back then. The guys would wear ties and the girls would dress up nice,” said Wendy Rowe, ’79. Dressed in black slacks and a silky red blouse, she said she only feels comfortable at the game when she is dressed up. “Our chants were more crude and planned than the ones the Crazies do now. I remember we would come up with those things in my classics class; ‘Shove that ball to

across the line! Shove it! Shove it! Shove it!’ Back then, there was a time to be social and a time to be academic.’’ In a somewhat nostalgic tone, she added that she sees a lack of spirit and responsibility in the students at games these days. “Some of these girls here are so drunk it scares me.” As six o’clock approached, hordes of undergraduate students began pouring through the parking lots on their way to Wallace Wade. The Iron Dukes started folding up their lawn chairs and tables, closing their coolers and loading their cars. A cheer erupted from the stadium and several people raised their drinks laughing. “We must have scored!” they yelled to each other. Although tailgating may have become more enjoyable for the Iron Dukes than the actual game, they return also for the excitement of being in the stadium and the chance Duke will win. Maybe this will be the season,

they hope.

Washington State, Clemson befall

soccer teams by

Matt Sullivan

Having found themselves on the losing end of two consecutive 2-1 games, the Blue Devils wanted nothing more than to get back to their winning ways against Clemson yesterday. Instead, they ran into more of the same frustration against the Tigers, who dealt Duke (2-3, 0-1 in the ACC) its third straight 2-1 loss in its ACC opener. No. 19 Clemson (3-2-1, 1-0) wasted little time getting on the board, as senior Andre Borges fired the ball past Blue Devil goalkeeper Justin Trowbridge from six yards deep just 2:49 into the game. Borges was able to recover his own rebound off a Duke defender and mark the score. Borges’ goal left the Blue Devils playing catch-up for the remainder of the game, which they did with a fair amount of success. Duke outshot the Tigers 18-11 for the game and an impressive 12-5 in the second halfalone. The Blue Devils finally were able to show for their efforts when Junior Nigi Adogwa knotted the score at one apiece in the 73rd minute of the game. By that point, Duke had already expended an exorbitant amount of energy trying to come back. Clemson was able to take advantage of the Blue Devils’ fatigue just five minutes after Duke tied it, when Clemson’s Kenny Cutler took a centering pass from John Cooper and put it in the net from just outside the 18-yard box. The Tigers fended off a worn down Duke team for the final 11 minutes of the game and were able to take a victory from the Blue Devils. “We spent so much energy catching up that by the time we tied up the game, we were completely out of energy,” Duke head coach John Rennie said. “It was a disappointing way to begin the ACC season because I really felt like we outplayed [Clemson].” As was the case in their previous two losses to William & Mary and UC-Santa Barbara, the Blue Devils waged a dogfight against their opposition. Unfortunately for Duke, its competitive and gutty performances have not resulted in

Casey McCluskey’s game-winning goal with nine seconds left against Oregon State (S-l-1) gave Duke a shot in the arm, but the adrenaline wore off Sunday, when Washington State (2-4) choked the Blue Devils (4-1-1) into their first loss of the season, a 1-0 shutout and a deflating-butearly blemish. “This isn’t going to make or break the season by any means,” sophomore Carmen Bognanno said. “It may even be good for us. It shows we’re not invincible. We can get beat, but we can also win. We can win big games.” Duke won a huge match two weeks ago over then-No. 4 Texas, but the wear and tear of the season and a bulkedup early schedule showed yesterday with the Blue Devils mustering just eight shots in being blanked for the first time this year. The first half was the beginning of the stalemate— Cougar head coach Mark Potter called the game “a bit of a chess match”—with Duke and Washington State combining for just five shots. Even though the Blue Devils came out with intensity after Friday’s win, they blew two corner kick opportunities and couldn’t slip behind the Cougar defense for much of the rest of the game. And in the 74th minute, Washington State senior Rachel Rodrick found a seam and knocked in the gamewinner past Duke’s Kate Straka, Rodrick’s third goal in as many contests. McCluskey, who had five shots against Oregon State to go with her goal, was shut down Sunday, as the Blue Devils managed just eight shots—half as many as Friday’s total.

Sophomore Carmen Bognanno and the rest of Duke's potent offense took out Oregon State Friday before falling Sunday to the Cougars. Even Carolyn Ford and Kate Seibert, who had hooked up for a goal in the second straight game Friday and were named to the all-toumament team along with Bognanno, were not much of a force, blind-sided by an unfamiliar West Coast opponent like the rest of their teammates. ‘We didn’t generate any offense or make good decisions today,” head coach Robbie Church said. “Hopefully, we will learn from this and get better.” Duke needs to learn quickly, as current-No. 4 UCLA makes for an even more brutal cross-coast match-up next Sunday. The Bruins come to Durham to comprise perhaps Duke’s biggest soccer lineup of the year: No. 1 North Carolina will take on UCLA Friday before Duke plays Richmond, with women playing the Bruins Sunday. And for that, the Blue Devils don’t have to be invincible, but they can’t be invisible either.

The two schools were notched at sixover-par at the completion of threerounds in the fall season’s most important event. When the teams returned to the difficult 18th for the playoff, the Blue Devils turned in three pars and a pair of bogies, which was enough to edge out the Tigers who could only muster two pars, two bogies and a double bogey. “It was great to pull out a win today, especially in a playoff,” head coach Dan Brooks said. “We made a good team effort today.” During the final 18 the Blue Devils were led by senior Virada Nirapathpongporn who was five-under-par for the round.

After having a terrific tournament, Brittany Lang —who finished in a tie for eighth in her first collegiate event recorded a double bogey on the 18th Sunday.

The Demon Deacons (4-0, 1-0) rode to victory behind the strength of a Wake Forest-controlled second half of play following an even first period. After both teams played to a draw in a see-saw first half that ended in a 1-1 tie, the Demon Deacons took over in the second stanza. They spent much of the period on Duke’s side of the field, racking up seven shots and nine penalty corners to the Blue Devils’ two and

Wake Forest’s Kelly Dostal sent a low shot under the pads of diving Duke goalie Christy Morgan just three minutes into the second half to give the Demon Deacons the lead for good. Katie Ackerman then tipped in a teammate’s cross 15 minutes later to secure victory with a 3-1 Wake Forest lead. According to Morgan, it was frustrating to surrender such a large number of corners after the team discussed how to avoid such a scenario during half-time, said Morgan. The Blue Devils were more upset, however, with their departure from successful first half strategies, said head coach Beth Bozman and juniorChrissie Murphy. ‘We played, gosh, 45 good minutes and then got a little frantic,” Bozman said. ‘The clock’s ticking and we lost a lot of our composure, so it’s a 3-1 game because of that. I think if a couple things fall our way—that’s a euphemism.... “It’s going to be a process. You don’t get to being the top team in the country overnight, and we know it’s going to be a process.

Blue Devil defender Grade Sorbello sent a long pass down the right side of the field to sophomore Katie Grant. Grant then beat her defender and froze the Wake Forest goalie with a pass to Murphy, who put the pass away into the open net. Murphy and Grant now share the team lead in goals with five apiece. The defeat was the first for Duke this season. The Blue Devils entered the game with an undefeated record and with a combined scoring margin of 30-1 but had yet to play a highly-ranked opponent. In a season in which Duke hopes to fmal-

ly break into the top echelon of college teams, Wake Forest was to be the “measuring stick” to gauge how good the Blue Devils really were, Bozman said. And while Duke can certainly compete and beat teams like Wake Forest, it has to make sure it does not defeat itself first, she added. “But we just need to really figure out how to stay composed and smart for 70 minutes...” Bozman said. “I told them that it is a process and that we have to scratch and claw to the top. We’ve just got to crawl a little bit and scratch a little bit...we have got a ways to go.”

Even after that win, Franks opted to start redshirt freshman Mike Schneider at quarterback. He willingly took over the offense for Adam Smith, who did not take a single snap Saturday night. The Blue Devils’ offense was poised for most of the day, running the ball 43 times for 222 yards and utilizing the aerial attack for 188 yards on 32 plays. One of Duke’s most crucial plays came on a punt return from juniorLance Johnson. With the Blue Devils leading 17-14 at about the 10-minute mark in the fourth quarter, Johnson- caught the ball at his own 45-yard line and proceeded to break several tackles in the open field before being brought down at the Owls’ 31-yard line. Starting their drive already in field-goal position, the Blue Devils did not hesitate to take advantage of the Owls’ lagging secondary. On the first play from scrimmage, Schneider dropped back into the pocket and completed a pass to junior Khary Sharpe on the Rice one-yard line. On the following play, senior Chris Douglas, who netted 114 rushing yards on the ground, ran in for a touchdown to give Duke a 24-14 lead. “When the chips were down, Duke stepped up,” Douglas said. ‘The defense stepped up when the offense was struggling and when the defense was down the offense stepped up. You have to be in close games and you want that to happen early in the season. When it happens you want to come out with a win.” The Blue Devil defense, led by safety Terrell Smith’s 16 tackles (seven solo), was able to dig deep in the overtime. After Rice drove the field and tied the game at 24-24 with three seconds in regulation, the Owls were in complete control of the momentum.

Garber’s field goal to open overtime did not give Duke much breathing room as the Blue Devil defense had the task of keeping the Owls from moving the ball 35 yards for a touchdown. On third and three in the extra period, the Owls handed the ball off to senior running back Robbie Beck. Duke senior Ryan Fowler and freshman Casey Camero made a huge stop one yard short of the first down. “[Rice] has a quick-hitting offense,” Fowler said. “It is hard to emulate that in practice. It took a while to get used to it. We shut them down in the second and third quarters, but they came back hard in the fourth. They fought hard the whole game and had a whole bag of tricks for us. We just came away with a lucky win. We will take it.” On the ensuing fourth down play, Rice head coach Ken Hatfield decided to kick what was supposed to be a guaranteed 34-yard field goal to send the game into double overtime. Kicker Skeen had already hit a vital 46-yard field goal in the fourth quarter which would lead many coaches to kick the field goal instead of trying a do-ordie fourth and one. “It is a heartbreaker.... The biggest thing you find out right now is what you can do about it,” Hatfield said. ‘The best thing you can do right now is turn around and love your teammate. It was not the one field goal, there were a lot of plays. It wasn’t just one play that did it.” Although the scene after Saturday’s game was not filled with nearly as much jubilation as last year’s victory over East Carolina, which ended the Blue Devils’ streak of futility, it is equally important that Duke is gaining confidence in the early stretch of its schedule. Another home game next week against Northwestern holds the possibility of winning three games in a row, a feat that has not happened at Duke since Fred Goldsmith coached the team in 1994.

The kick heard the Triangle 9

When Duke’s 10-point lead collapsed in Saturday’s 27-24 overtime win over Rice, many sports-writers inside the press box made many benign statements that implicitly translated to, “Great, I have to write another Duke blows a lead and loses by five points or less story.” Human nature cannot prevent those thoughts from formulating, and after the game, players said the same cognition was going through their minds, as well. “It’s natural to think about, ‘Okay, we’re in overtime, got to make a play,” wide receiver Khary Sharpe, who had a game high 63 receiving yards. But redshirt freshman Mike Schneider had none of these ideas in his head. Schneider has no super-human power to block mementos of past failures just when they seem to reoccurring; he simply has no memories of being on the field during the close losses. It is easy to forget that this is not the same Duke football team as last year. Every offensive starter and all but two defensive starters returned for the 2003 season, making it a reasonable assumption that this year’s Blue Devils would have many of the same strengths and weaknesses as in 2002. But it is now clear that Duke has a new offensive starter, and also a new leader in redshirt freshman Schneider. Not once did he feel the Blue Devils were going to blow another lead. “I stepped into the huddle and I just told everyone, ‘We’re not losing,’” Schneider said. “I really don’t know how to lose from high school. I knew when I stepped in the huddle that we were going to do it.” While a member of the National Honor Society, Schneider quarterbacked Sharon High School in Sharon, Pa., to 31 wins and three district championships. Winning a game against Rice is not an'accomplishment worth much lauding, but Duke needed to start somewhere. And with the win, the Blue Devils have their first backto-back wins in the Carl Franks era. “It feels great [to win back-to-back games],” senior running back Chris Douglas said. “It feels great to see all the students that were out there. We had a lot of fans out there today, and I think as we win more games more people will show up in the stands. I just hope the momentum keeps going, helps the ball keep rolling.” Although it is tremendous that Duke won a close game, an accomplishment Franks repeatedly said he desired, this feat should not be blown out of proportion. It is true that Duke needed to win a close game to at least sedate the nightmares from the close losses oflast season, but it is also true that Saturday did not need to be a close game. When running back Chris Douglas dove into the endzone from the oneyard line, Duke held a 24-14 lead with 10:06 left in the game. To make matters even worse for the Owls, Rice had no momentum. After gaining 201 yards and counting 14 points on the scoreboard in the first quarter, the Owls’ offense was rife with confusion, ineffectiveness and turnovers.

Reggie Love battles for a reception in Duke's 27-24 victory over the Rice Owls. While this pass was broken up,Love had already hauled in a nine-yard touchdown reception that knotted the gameat 7-7 (above). Kicker Brent Garber hit perhaps his most important field goal since last season's 56-yarder that helped Duke end its 23-game losing streak against East Carolina.This boot gave Duke a three-point advantage against the Owls in overtime, and was ultimately all Duke would need after Rice missed a field goal of its own (bottom left). The Blue Devils charge out of a giant helmet in front of a crowd of 18,000Wade Wackos, a crowd pleasantly filled with Duke students, according to several players. Rice kept fighting with its gritty tripleoption offense, and eventually the mosdyeffective Duke defense began to break. After a 12-play, 43-yard drive that included a tough-nosed 14-yard run by interim quarterback Greg Henderson, Owls kicker Brandon Skeen booted in a 46-yard field goal, which made the score 24-17 with 6:20 remaining in the game. The Blue Devils responded to this challenge with a four-play drive of nothingness, and were forced to punt. It then took Rice 13 plays to get to the Duke red zone, including a fourth-andseven situation thatended with Henderson running for 11 yards and a fourth-and-one play that saw Henderson sprint for another 11 yards. Rice was much more efficient in the red zone, needing only three plays to knot up the score with three seconds remaining. But Schneider insisted that a win would come when Duke regained possession. “I told [my teammates] on the sidelines when the defense was out there that we’re going to pound the ball if we get it

back,” he said But the Blue Devils’ play on offense in the overtime showed no signs of a clutchplay epiphany. After Schneider’s nine-yard toss to Ben Patrick to start the extra period, the Blue Devils gained only four more yards. And this certainly was not the coaches’ fault. Last season many blamed the exorbitant number of close losses on bad coaching in the final minutes, but in the overtime against Rice, the skippers were close to brilliant. On third and 11 on the Rice 12, the Blue Devils ran an ingeniously timed play: Schneider pitched the ball to Junior wide receiver Darryl Scott, who threw the ball from the left side of the field to the right side of the endzone where the pigskin directly fell into the hands of the wide-open and normally clutch Douglas. But he dropped the ball. Thankfully, Brent Garber, who looked shaky in his first game back since his rib injury against Western Carolina, nailed a 30yard field goal that gave the Blue Devils a 27-24 lead.

While Duke’s performance looked alunchanged from its norms in overtime, for some reason, Rice adjusted things. After two well-executed fourth down conversions in the game-tying fourth quarter drive, Rice decided to kick a field goal when faced with a fourth and one on the Duke 16. Adding to Rice head coach Ken Hatfield’s anguish, Skeen, who had just moments afgo nailed a 46-yard field goal, clearly missed a 34 yarder. While the new enthusiasm Schneider has brought to the Blue Devils in the fourth quarter should be duly noted, there were more reminders of last season’s fourth quarter three-mile islands than even a neuralyzer from the Men in Black movies could make one forget. The Duke-Rice game was not a close game that Duke held on to with clutch play. The Duke-Rice game was not a close game until traditional Blue Devil wretched clutch play made it one. Franks said he was happy to finally have won a close game,but he could not possibly be happy that Saturday’s contest was a close game. most

Mcßoberts: Great visit helps Fatigue takes toll during trip Blue Devils remain atop list to Wisconsin for InnTower Michael Mueller The Chronicle Duke’s chances to land Josh Mcßoberts are looking better and better. The junior forward took an unofficial visit with his family to Duke this weekend and walked away impressed. “[Duke’s] great,” Mcßoberts said in an interview with The Chronicle this weekend. “I really like the players..., I really enjoyed [the visit] and I really like Duke.” The talented Carmel, Ind., native spent this past weekend with men’s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski and the coaching staff, shoodng hoops with Duke’s current players, and taking in the sights and sounds of Duke’s campus. That included Sunday service in the historic Chapel and Duke’s 27-24 football victory over Rice Saturday evening. “[Basketball practice] was a good experience,” Mcßoberts said. “It helps you to see where you’re at.” The versatile 6-foot-9 forward also used the experience to glean valuable coaching tips from Duke’s staff. Mcßoberts says he’ll use the information to help focus him on playing at the next level. “I used to be really worried about my strength, but the coaches said I’ll be strong enough,” Mcßoberts said. Right now, Mcßoberts tips the scales at anywhere from 215 to 220 pounds, which is a significant increase from his freshman playing weight of 190 pounds. Although he says he’ll continue lifting weights, bulking up may no longer be his primary concern. by

He also drew comparisons to Mike Dunleavy and Danny Ferry. Mcßoberts averaged 16 points and 11 rebounds per game as a sophomore for Carmel High School last year. A versatile and aggressive inside player, Mcßoberts is considered to be one of the top ten players in the class of 2005 according to theinsiders.com. The versatile power forward is currently considering six schools: Duke, Arizona, Kansas, Indiana, Notre Dame and North Carolina. Though he has not yet taken the SAT, Mcßoberts has talked with admissions counselor Christoph Guttentag and has expressed confidence that he will qualify for an athletic scholarship.

The Blue Devils (4-4) struggled through a competitive InnTower Invitational, falling to Big Ten powers lowa 2-3 and Wisconsin 3-1. “We played with a great effort, passion and determination,” Duke’s head coach Jolene Nagel said. “I think we grew as a team and we played smart volleyball against No. 25 Wise.

tough opponents.” In Friday night’s matchup against the Hawkeyes (4-4), the Blue Devils’ momenwas up and down until their energy gave out in the fifth game for a heartbreaking loss. After the first game, it appeared that Duke was en route to maintaining the intensity it showed off in its last contest against East Carolina. Duke outhit lowa 29.3 percent to seven percent to earn a quick 30-21 victory in the first game. However, the Hawkeyes battled back in game two to tie the match as they did again in game four. Aji exhausted Blue Devils squad finally broke down in energy in game five dropping 15-12. ‘We were disappointed with our perfortum

mance Friday night,” a melancholy Nagel admitted. “We played really well in game one. We played well in moments throughout the match but made errors at crucial moments that lowa was able to act on.” Things did not get any easier for Duke Saturday afternoon as they went up against Wisconsin (8-2), who boasts a No. 25 ranking and the home-court advantage. The Badgers dominated the first two games leaving the Blue Devils chasing after tough offensive attacks. And while the Cheeseheads appeared to be well on their way to a clean sweep, Duke battled back for a come-ffom-behind victory of 30-25. The Blue Devils once again had turned to their power hitter and middle blocker Krista Dill who reached 1,000 career kills during the match. Wisconsin resumed their dominance in the fourth game, though, and took the match 3-1. ‘These long weekends are positive for getting a lot of the girls playing time and for conditioning as a team,” Nagel said. “But they can also be very draining. Luckily, we have a lot of players and a number of combinations we can utilize but some combinations will work better than others.” The next of these “draining” weekends is just a few days away. Friday, Duke will be on the road again as they take on Santa Clara, South Carolina and George Washington in the Gamecock Invite. ‘We need to take this year one week at a time and one match at a time,” Nagel said. We continue to grow as a team but we’re not playing cupcake teams. The team has to understand that playing tough teams is only going to make us better for the ACC.”

only four holes. Auburn’s top finisher Nicole Hage fired four birdies on the back nine and ended the event in a tie for third place For the Blue Devils, the tournament got off to a terrific start as Lang notched a fiveunder-par 67 in her first round of collegiate golf. During the round, the Texas native made three consecutive birdies to close out the front nine. Lang fired rounds of three-over-par and two-over-par respectively Saturday and Sunday. Duke’s top individual finisher was Elizabeth Janangelo, who was one-under-par for the weekend/ Like Lang, the sophomore marshaled her best score in the first round, shooting two-under-par. Janangelo shot even-par in her final round, but carded four birdies in the process. Grzebien had an inconsistent final 18 holes, but was still able to piece together a two-over-par round. The freshman struggled in her opening round with a plus-five score, but came back to finish in 29th position. ‘To have a couple of freshman start for us in the third-most important tournament of the year and for them to play as

in victories. Rennie emphasized the need for his team to get on the board first in these games, as that was not the case against Clemson. “After Clemson went up 1-0 early in the game we had to spend the next 70 minutes chasing them,” Rennie said. “We were just drained after we tied it up.” On the opponents’ sideline, Clemson head coach Trevor Adair expressed his satisfaction and relief at defeating the re-

well as they did was outstanding. From top to bottom, we have a very solid team this year and that is exciting.” The lone disappointment for Duke was the shaky performance of senior Leigh Anne Hardin. She carded plus-10 and plus-7 rounds Friday and Saturday, but came back to shoot even par Sunday. Pepperdine’s Carolina Llano took individual medalist honors after shooting a sixunder-par 66 yesterday. She recorded four birdies on the front nine and capped off her round with a hole-in-one on the fifteenth. Despite entering the final round in a tie for twelfth, Llano outpaced the field, beating Oklahoma’s Lisa Meldrum by three shots. Auburn and Duke dominated the tournament, beating third place Arizona by eight strokes. Oklahoma and Oklahoma State rounded out the top five with scores of plus 24 and plus 31, respectively. The win, against almost all of the national powerhouses, is a major confidence builder for the Blue Devils. This is compounded by the fact that the field will return to this same course in mid-May to compete for the national championship.

silient Blue Devils "I am really happy with the win," Adair said. "We have so many people hurt and we were trying to get through the week. We really needed this victory. Kenny Cutler stepped up and played well. Duke put the pressure on us in the second half. We showed character and the effort is there. Again I am happy we found a way to win." •

The Chronicle

The Independent Daily at Duke University

Patriot Act II violates civil liberties the wake of the attacks of Sept. 11, the United States Congress hurriedly passed a series of measures aimed at increasing the government’s capability to monitor and respond to terrorist threats. Collectively termed the “Patriot Act,” the measures provided for enhanced surveillance—wire taps, interception of electronic communications—,closer monitoring of international monetary movements, increased border security and the removal of judicial obstacles to investigating terrorism. The Patriot Act was passed in the interest of national security, despite concerns that its provisions laid the groundwork for a gross perversion of civil liberties. In recent days, the Bush administration has put before lawmakers a second anti-terrorism proposal—the “Patriot Act II.” While this bill aims at further adding to American law enforcement agencies’ power to locate and punish individuals involved in terrorist acts, it crosses the line in terms of violating civil liberties, and Congress should not hesitate to vote each of its provisions down. The first of plan’s three points would allow federal agents to demand private records and main documents and gamer testimony from terror suspects without first seeking approval from a judge, federal prosecutor or grand jury. This would, in effect, give the Justice Department and other law enforcement agencies sweeping powers without any system of oversight or checks and balances. This is dangerous because it grants an undue amount of responsibility and freedom to individual federal agents, many of whom would have the discretion to violate an individual’s civil liberties, without first consulting superiors or civilian authorities. The process of obtaining a subpoena from civilian authorities before taking action exists to protect the often fragile civil liberties this country was founded upon. The second primary component of the plan involves making financial sponsors of terrorism eligible for the death penalty. While such individuals deserve harsh punishment, the country is clearly not ready to authorize state-sponsored termination of life. Heated debates on the morality and practicality of the death penalty rage among Americans on a regular basis, and America must decide on its merits alone before allowing it to become a sanctioned punishment for terrorism. The final point concerns holding terror suspects without the possibility of bail. While there is a legitimate concern that suspects might flee or commit further atrocities if released, the American judicial system has its cornerstone in the principle of “innocent until proven guilty,” and the judge should be able to exercise his or her discretion in determining the threat posed by a particular suspect. Although it may seem counter-intuitive, the prosecution must prove that these individuals pose a real threat if released on bail—not the other way around. It is understandable that during times offear and terrorism, many Americans desire increased measures for security and law enforcement. However, history has taught us—through the Alien and Sedition Acts and Japanese internment in WWll—that the violation of civil liberties, regardless of the circumstances or the threat posed to our nation, stands against the principles upon which our country and democracy in general are grounded.

Letters to the Editor New excuse policy is an improvement Last week, The Chronicle discussed

length a critical issue that deeply, concerns many Duke undergraduates: the University’s proposed “short-term illness” excuse proto-

col. For years, “dean’s excuses” which forced students literally to obtain doctors’ notes for colds and coughs—had served as the primary channel through which students have arranged to make up assignments missed due to minor health problems; fortunately, however, this variety of dean’s excuse is gone for good. The old system, clouding the student-faculty relationship with the inclusion of both student health officials and the deans, has in years past removed an essential element of trust from the classroom and, to a large extent, has hampered the student-faculty interaction on which a university community necessarily depends. Under the new Community Standard, however, the former system makes even less sense. How can a student’s word be considered his campus-wide bond, except in the case of illness? The answer is simple: it cannot. Communities of honor, like the one that we are seeking to build here at Duke, cannot go halfway. The new excuse protocol proposed to the Arts and Sciences Council and Engineering Faculty Council this past week by Dr. James —

Bonk, Dean Kay Singer, and others addresses all of these problems and establishes a no-nonsense system which will dovetail nicely with the Community Standard. Only students and their instructors—rather than the discordant quartet of the previous policy—will be responsible for arranging relevant makeup work, and students will attestto their illnesses by electronically signing the Community Standard. Unfortunately, the joint councils were prevented from approving this essential policy at last Thursday’s meeting due to a lack of quorum. This failure to act is a regrettable one, as the University has largely been left in a state of “limbo,” to quote Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences William Chafe. The joint councils should strongly consider calling a special session to address an issue of such university-wide importance. The proposed excuse protocol, if passed in its current form in the coming weeks, will serve as a pivotal cornerstone in the foundation of a Duke community tightly linked together by integrity and respect. It is that sort of Duke community for which each of us should strive daily. Avery Reaves Trinity ’O5 VP ofAcademic Affairs, Duke Student Govenment

In defense of the virtual Kiosk As creator of the virtual Kiosk for posting flyers online, I am writing in response

to Kumar Sukhdeo’s argument that the virtual Kiosk should not replace paper flyers. The original intention that Eileen Quo and I had in creating the virtual Kiosk for posting flyers online was not to replace paper flyers because I do believe in the effectiveness of paper flyers. Like Mr. Sukhdeo, I also believe that there is a greater need for better advertisements of events on and off campus and that wooden Kiosks and places to flyer about events are too few and far between. In addition, I also agree that the flyer policy does need to be changed. These were the original motives for creating the virtualKiosk: to enhance publicity of academic and social events, not hinder them! Sukhdeo remarks that the virtual Kiosk takes us one step closer to the elimination of paper flyers and probably the banners over the Bryan Center walkway, and would dismantle social life on campus. I am unable to follow this logic; the virtual Kiosk is meant to allow students, faculty, and administration to access flyers from a computer during all hours of the day to find out about events. How would this decrease attendance at social and academic events? I agree that the disadvantages of the

virtual Kiosk are that not everyone will go to a website everyday, nor can one view a website while walking to class or waiting for the bus. However how often does one have time to read or literally is able to read flyers posted upon flyers on the current wooden Kiosks? It is constantly a competition for student groups and departments to see who can flyer the most across campus with the loudest and most colorful flyers. The virtual Kiosk allows each flyer to have ample space to be read in its entirety by the Duke community. The virtual Kiosk also stemmedfrom the many complaints from Duke students that events are not well-publicized and a website for flyers was needed. Thus, that is the role of a university’s student government; to serve the needs and requests of the students. My goal with the virtual Kiosk was to serve as an additional means of advertisement! I encourage all to continue posting paper flyers, but also to continue submitting flyers to dukeflyers@yahoo.com or via the flyer drop-box, and to regularly check out dsg.duke.edu/kiosk to find out about events.

Cutting red tape to make red r ibbons She

is two years old—her head is nearly the size of her belly, and her arms and legs are atrophied to lumps of a soft jellylike mass. Mucous is caked over her face and when she coughs, a deep, rich purple substance oozes from her nose. Her eyes, a brown so intense they seem black, are crusted and glazed over, her gaze is unfixed—staring at nothing or at everything, I cannot tell. She cannot even cry properly, unable to reach into her chest for a mighty wail, she whimpers pathetically through the top of her throat. The disproportion ofher head, potbelly, and limbs would be endearing if it weren’t such a devastating symbol of how the virus has already ravaged her small, frail body.

I try to capture some meaning to Posiza’s short life—but am unable to produce anything about the child that would set her apart from the millions of other AIDS orphans in Africa. I cannot resign her to just another poor, dying African child. But there is nothing Of consequence to distinguish my relationship with Posiza from every other woman in Africa who holds onto a dying child, enraged by the injustice of its impending death, questioning everything she once seemed to know. And it is this commonness which has jaded theworld to Posiza’s situation, we accept that African children die by the thousands each day, we wouldn’t expect anything else. Posiza is one of the 40 millionAfricans whose life is held at the will of international apathy, political rhetoric and corporate greed. Although AIDS claims more lives in

Africa than famine, war and flooding, there is no sense of urgency, from within Africa or the international community, to conquer this disease. The AIDS epidemic in Africa, and throughout the world, should be declared an international emergency. It should be U eated with the same sense of urgency as the war on terror—a war on AIDS has a tangible enemy and clear, quantifiable objectives, and while not an uncomplicated battle to fight, is essential to preventing political, economic and social catastrophe. If we do not take decisive action now, die opportunity which may have already passed will definitely go by. It already is a retroactive battle—when 40 millionAfricans are already infected, it can be nothing else. Some African nations face predictions that up to one-quarter of their populations will die from complications of AlDS—something that the World Bank considers an imminent threat to economic and political instability. But instead of recognizing the threat AIDS poses to an already fragile Africa, and to international security by treating the epidemic as an international emergency, measures to combat the virus are stagnated by bureaucracy and

political exploitation. Consider the $l5 billion in U.S. aid President Bush has pledged to fight AIDS in Africa. As the President demonstrated by asking for an extra $B7 billion for the rebuilding of Iraq and continuing the war on terrorism, the resources necessary to undertake serious action on multiple fronts against a complicated and embittered enemy in a limited region of the world are enormous. All of a sudden, $l5 billion pledged to an entire continent, over a five year period, does not seem like so much.
