Tiffany Webber THE CHRONICLE
For the past several months, activists and other supporters of immigrants’ rights have filled the streets of several U.S. cities to promote dialogue and call on legislators to produce a comprehensive immigration reform bill. Today is Duke’s day. Peter Sunday evening, Lasch—interim director of the Latino/a Studies Initiative and visiting assistant professor of the practice of visual arts—urged members of the Duke community to join the National Work Stoppage and Mobilization in Support of Immigrants and Immigration Reform march. Lasch said the goal of the march—or “walking discussion”—is to promote dialogue about the issue of immigrant legislation, and he invites supporters and non-supporters of immigrants alike to join the discourse.

Bearing a message of unity and calling for justice, members of the Church of the Apostolic Revival assembled Sunday to protest the actions of law enforcement officials and University administrators toward members of the men’s lacrosse team accused of rape. The protest, which was organized by members of the Church, took place outside the

White House dismisses Iran strike by
Nedra Pickler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The White House sought to dampen the idea of a U.S. military strike on Iran Sunday, saying the United States is conducting “normal defense and intelligence planning” as President George W. Bush seeks a diplomatic solution to Tehran’s suspected nuclear weapons program. Administration officials—from President Bush on down—have left open the possibility of a military response if Iran does not end its nuclear ambitions. Several reports published Sunday said the administration was studying options for military
strikes; one account raised the possibility of using nuclear bombs against Iran’s underground nuclear sites. Britain’s foreign secretary called the idea of a nuclear strike “completely nuts.” Dan Bartlett, counselor to Bush, cautioned against reading too much into administration planning. “The president’s priority is to find a diplomatic solution to a problem the entire world recognizes,” Bardett told The Associated Press Sunday. “And those who are drawing broad, definitive conclusions based on normal defense and intelligence planning are ill-informed and are not knowledgeable of the administration’s
thinking on Iran.” Experts say a military strike on Iran would be risky and complicated. U.S. forces already are preoccupied with Iraq and Afghanistan, and an attack against Iran could inflame U.S. problems in the Muslim world. British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw, in an interview with the British Broadcasting Corp., said Britain would not launch a preemptive strike on Iran, and he was as “certain as he could be” that neither would the United States. He said he has a high suspicion that Iran is developing a civil nuclear SEE IRAN ON PAGE 6
Bush asked to explain CIA leak by
Nedra Pickler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should speak publicly about their involvement in the CIA leak case so people can understand what happened, a leading Republican senator said Sunday. “We ought to get to the bottom of it so it can be evaluated, again, by the American people,” said Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. In a federal court filing last week, the prosecutor in the case said Cheney’s for-
mer chief of staff, I. Lewis Libby, testified before a grand jury that he was authorized by Bush, through Cheney, to leak information from a classified document that detailed intelligence agencies’ conclusions about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. A lawyer knowledgeable about the case said Saturday that Bush declassified sensitive intelligence in 2003 and authorized its public disclosure to rebut Iraq war critics, but he did not specifically direct that Libby be the one to disseminate the information. “I think that it is necessary for the president and vice president to tell the American people exactly what happened,”
Specter told “Fox News Sunday.” “I do say that there’s been enough of a showing here with what’s been filed of record in court that the president of the United States owes a specific explanation to the American people about exacdy what he did,” Specter said. Libby faces trial, likely in January, on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice for allegedly lying to the grand jury and investigators about what he told re...

Carolina Astigarraga THE CHRONICLE
The übiquitous white earbuds of the iPod have long been criticized by some as detrimental to the everyday casual interactions that shape college life. According to a national survey released by Zogby two weeks ago, however, there maybe another problem for critics to lambaste—hearing loss. Listening to loud music for a prolonged period of time irreparably damages the delicate hairs in the ear that allow hearing, said Gwendolyn O’Grady, clinical director of audiology at Duke University Medical Center. In addition to the release of the survey, there may be more bad news for Apple. John Kiel Patterson of Louisiana is suing the company in the U.S. District Court in San Jose, California. He alleges that his iPod is not safe for prolonged use because it generates a dangerous noise level in excess of 115 decibels. O’Grady said the national standards for safe listening vary but are usually approximately 75 decibels or lower, roughly the same noise level as a piano being played forcefully. “[The standards] are really meaningless because students don’t know the decibel level of their music unless they have a sound meter, which costs around $1600,” she explained. Although the survey did not directly link hearing loss to MP3 players such as iPods, it did cite some sound equipment as being able to blast music and sounds as high as 120 decibel levels—as loud as a jet taking off. Another difficulty in determining a safe listening level is that people have varying tolerances, so there is no test that could be done to determine whether a person will eventually lose their hearing, O’Grady said. Apple spokesperson Todd Wilder refused to comment directly on the study,

Hospital offers help during time of war by

Dr. Ivan Brown dreaded “flak time.” A doctor in the Duke-affiliated 65th General Hospital during World War 11, Brown counted the bullet holes as planes returned to base. More holes meant more hours treating injured pilots. “We called 4 p.m. every day when the bombers came back from their missions, ‘flak time,’” said Brown, Med ’4O and former James B. Duke Professor of Surgery, in a statement. “We’d prepare all afternoon for that.” The 65th General Hospital was established during World War II in East Anglia, England to serve primarily the Bth U.S. Air Force—a unit that ran daily bombing missions over Germany. The American planes were sometimes hit
with anti-aircraft fire or bullets from German fighter planes, and pilots often needed immediate medical care. Brown, along with a team of more than 500 other health professionals from North Carolina, staffed the complex of 35 Nissen huts that made up the 65th’s Botesdale compound, one of several in East Anglia. “Our bed capacity was 1,456, and we stayed full,” Brown said. “At times, we would get trainloads of 600 to 700 patients at once from the front.” The 65th was one of several initiatives Duke Hospital administrators undertook to help the Allies.

Death Cab, Franz Ferdinand rock Cameron by
Diana Ni
THE CHRONICLE
For one of the final times this semester, cheers filled ajam-packed Cameron Indoor Stadium Friday night—even though it was not a game night. More than 5,300 people —at least 2,500 of whom were Duke students—sang and swayed along with the dynamic rock of Franz Ferdinand and the poignant lyrics of Death Cab for Cutie. “We are extremely pleased with the outcome of the show,” said senior Elisa Ayarza, chair of Duke University Union’s Major Attractions Committee, which organized the concert. “The house was packed and the audience was very enthusiastic. We couldn’t have hoped for a better turnout.” The Cribs, a British punk rock trio, opened the concert, which began at 7 p.m. and lasted until 10:30 p.m. The band showcased several upbeat songs from their latest album, The GoodFellas, released last August. The musicians performed on a stage set up at one end of the basketball court with a sound board at the other end. Exuberant fans filled the space in between.
Scottish alternative rockers Franz Ferdinand followed The Cribs with an energetic performance of their hits—including “Take Me Out” and “Do You Want To”— against a backdrop of the cover art from their latest album, You Could Have It So Much Better, released last October. The performance ended with three members of the quartet performing a drums finale. Amid roaring applause, Death Cab for Cutie climbed on stage as the final performers of the concert. Fans of the Seattlebased indie quartet rocked to songs from various albums—including the hits “Soul Meets Body” and “What Sarah Said” from Plans, which was released last August. Lead singer Ben Gibbard kept fans swaying on their feet through the 65minute set, performing under a kaleidoscope of spotlights that lit a silhouetted backdrop of trees and city night lights. Audience members waved lit cell phones to powerful encore performances of “I Will Follow You Into The Dark” and “Transatlan ticism. In spite of the packed stadium, organiz”

Bomb scare proves to be false alarm The Durham Police Department was evacuated for more than three hours Friday when a man claimed that a suspicious package in his car was a bomb. The item proved to be harmless. The man, in his 40s, drove a white Chevrolet Cobalt to police headquarters at 505 W. Chapel Hill St. around 12:24 p.m. The man then told police that there was a device beneath his passenger seat that looked suspicious, a DPD new release said. Because of the scare, more than 100 employees were evacuated from the building, although 911 dispatchers remained inside. Employees, police and prisoners in handcuffs waited outside until the device was found to be harmless. Durham leaders decry city’s portrayal Local leaders have recendy spoken out against the national media’s portrayal of Durham—one in which the Bull City is often shown as a small Southern town where issues of race and class dominate the city’s consciousness. City Council member Mike Woodard said Thursday the journalists who arrived in the wake of an alleged March 13 rape have failed to provide history and context to images of the city. He also noted the many attempts by citizens to improve town-gown relations—attempts he said that the national medial are ignoring. Other council members said that the national media’s coverage has lacked balance and characterized the city, and its relationship with Duke, in exaggerated terms.
Body of teenager found in ditch Officials from the Wake County Sheriffs Office found the body of a local area teenager in a ditch early Saturday afternoon. After finding the body of Taylor James Klein, 18, of Fuquay-Varina, Wake County officials launched an investigation to try to pinpoint the cause of death. Police officials were tipped off on the
body by a motorist who notified authorities that a man was lying in a ditch. School systems initiate programs Edgecomb and Nash school systems have implemented several initiatives to keep students on track for graduation. The programs include specialized academies geared toward educating students about specific careers —including teaching and agriculture—an orientation program for ninth graders and a credit recovery initiative, which allows students who have failed a course to earn credit back after school. Sampson County locals return to homes Residents evacuated from more than 50 homes were allowed to return Saturday after firefighters contained a wildfire that burned approximately 200 acres in northern Sampson County, officials said. Officials said the fire near the Sandy Ridge Country Club had threatened the homes and placed occupants in danger. A day care center also was evacuated. Firefighters had the blaze 100 percent contained by late afternoon Saturday, said Jamie Kritzer, a spokesperson for the N.C. Division of Forest Resources. No injuries were reported, and no structures were lost, officials said. Man injured in Friday shooting Police are currently investigating a shooting that took place Friday afternoon in which a man was wounded. Reports have said more than 15 shots were fired. The victim, a man thought to be in his early 20s, was believed to have been shot near 7 Atka Court in eastern Durham at around 1:50 p.m. After the shooting, the victim was taken to Duke Hospital, but no further information has been released regarding his condition. Investigators devoted the afternoon to searching for clues through the area near the scene of the crime. The victim was found between buildings 3 and 8.

Mubarak questions Iraqi Shiites' loyalty by
Salah Nasrawi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO, Egypt Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak angered Iraqi leaders Sunday by saying Shiites there and across the Middle East are more loyal to Iran than to their own countries as he gave a startlingly frank warning about possible civil war in Iraq. The flap highlights the escalating tensions between predominantly Sunni Arab countries—alarmed by possible Kurdish and Shiite domination of their neighbor—and Iraqis who say they are not getting enough support from their Arab brothers. “Definitely Iran has influence on Shiites,” Mubarak said in an interview broadcast Saturday evening by Al-Arabiya television. “Shiites are 65 percent of the Iraqis... Most of the Shiites are loyal to Iran, and not to the countries they are living in.” He also said civil war “has almost started” in Iraq. “At the moment, Iraq is almost close to destruction,” he warned. Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, a Kurd, said Mubarak’s comments were not accurate.
“It is true that there are some kind of clashes among Sunnis and Shias. But it is not civil war,” he told Britain’s Channel 4 News. British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw reiterated that civil war in Iraq was neither imminent nor inevitable but accepted that the situation was “very serious.” Mubarak has rarely commented on the situation in Iraq and his statements usually are broad, vague expressions of concern over the violence and political turmoil there. Arab leaders also generally avoid pointed criticism of their fellow leaders. So the interview startled not only Iraqis but also the Shiites who form large communities in a number ofMideast nations particularly the Gulf, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon. Some of them said Mubarak’s comments only fuel momentum toward civil war. —
2006 5
Thar she blows!
Mubarak’s spokesperson, Suleiman Awad, tried Sunday to soften the impact. He said the president was talking about Shiite sympathy with Iran “in view of its hosting of [Shiite] holy shrines.” “The president’s statement about Iraq was only reflecting his increasing worries about the deteriorating situation and his keenness to maintain Iraq’s national unity,” Awad said in a statement carried by the state news agency MENA. That did not seem to mollify Iraqi leaders. “This is a stab in their [Shiites’] patriotism and their civilization,” Iraq’s three highest-ranking Kurdish, Shiite and Sunni Arab leaders—Talabani, Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari and Parliament Speaker Adnan Pachachi—said in a joint state-
Sunday. “Reality and historical facts show that the Shiites always have been patriotic and genuine Iraqis. This unfair accusation against Shiites is baseless,” Talabani, a Kurd, later told Iraqi television. Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari complained to Egyptian counterment
part Ahmed Aboul Gheit about Mubarak’s remarks, an Iraqi diplomat in Cairo said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information. Mubarak’s comments are likely to fuel complaints by Iraq’s new Shiite and Kurdish leaders that Sunni-led Arab nations are biased toward the country’s Sunni Arab minority and do not consider their government legitimate. Last month, Zebari lashed out at Arab leaders in a summit in Khartoum, Sudan—that Mubarak did not attend—telling them they are to blame if Iran has influence because they have not supported Iraq since Saddam Hussein’s fall in 2003. Iraq has demanded Arab countries follow through on promises to send ambassadors to Baghdad, and it sees their failure to do so as a lack of support and recogni-

turn could be used for nuclear weapons, but there is “no smoking gun” to prove it and justify military action. “I understand people’s frustration with the diplomatic process,” Straw said. “It takes a long time and is quite a subtle process. The reason why we’re opposed to military action is because it’s an infinitely worse option and there’s no justification for it.” The U.N. Security Council has demanded Iran suspend its uranium enrichment program. But Iran has so far refused to halt its nuclear activity, saying the smallscale enrichment project was strictly for research and not for development ofnuclear weapons. Bush has said Iran may pose the greatest challenge to the United States of any other country in the world. And while he has stressed that diplomacy is always preferable, he has defended his administration’s strike-first policy against terrorists and other enemies. “The threat from Iran is, of course, their stated objective to destroy our strong ally Israel,” the president said last month in Cleveland. “That’s a threat, a serious threat. It’s a threat to world peace; it’s a threat, in essence, to a strong alliance. I made it clear, I’ll make it clear again, that we will use military might to protect our ally.” Vice President Dick Cheney told the pro-Israel lobbying group AIPAC last month, “The United States is keeping all options on the table in addressing the irresponsible conduct of the regime. And we join other nations in sending that regime a clear message: We will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.” Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice stressed in an April 1 interview with British

television channel ITV that the United States is committed to diplomacy to solve the issue. “However,” she added, “the president of the United States doesn’t take his options off the table.” Pentagon spokesperson Lt. Col. Mark Ballesteros said Sunday that the president and State Department are working with other nations “to address diplomatically the troublesome activities of the Iranian government. And the U.S. military never comments on contingency planning.” Stephen Cimbala, a Pennsylvania State University professor who studies U.S. foreign policy, said it would be no surprise that the Pentagon has contingency plans for a strike on Iran. But he said the administration’s hint of military strikes is more of a show to Iran and the public than a feasible option. “If you look at the military options, all of them are unattractive,” Cimbala said. “Either because they won’t work or because they have side effects where the cure is worse than the disease.” Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., criticized the administration for using “shoot from the hip, cowboy diplomacy” during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” He said the president should be doing more to get sanctionsagainst Iran. He said even though the military option must be left open, “it’s a terrible option fundamentally, and they know it and everybody else knows it.” The New Yorker magazine said the administration had increased clandestine activities inside Iran and intensified planning for a possible major air attack and that one option envisioned the use of a bunker-buster tactical nuclear weapon to ensure the destruction ofIran’s main centrifuge plant, at Natanz. The New York Times quoted officials as rejecting the idea that the administration was considering the use ofnuclearweapons.

PROTEST from page 1 outraged Caucasians, and just as many outraged Duke students.” Bennett’s primary concern, however, was what he called a lack of “justice.” He decried the way law enforcement officials and Duke administrators are treating the lacrosse players. He said officials’ courses of action would have been different if the players had been ofanother race. “The crucial question is why,” Bennett said. “Why have [the suspects] not been arrested? Why does one get to go home to his New Jersey house?” With a wife and daughter of his own, Bennett said he was deeply shaken by the lack of safety in the community. “Why do we allow the accused to roam our streets freely?” he asked, adding that members of the team remain free both on and off campus. Brother Davis, a Duke alumnus and member of the Church of Apostolic Revival, spoke after Bennett. Davis said he was the victim ofDuke’s culture ofinstitutionalized racism when he was a student. “The racism that exists now is still here,” he said. “It’s not blatant, but it’s still here.” Accused of a petty crime as a student, Davis said he was immediately sent to a Wake County jail where he was held for 24 hours before being released and acquitted, without receiving any support or protection from the University’s administration. It was his race, he said, that warranted treatment different from the treatment the lacrosse players are now receiving. Today, Davis said, the administration is not doing enough to punish wrongdoings among its students. “[Duke] is a constant source of shame and animosity,” he said. “It’s time to stop forming committees and address [the allegations facing Duke students]. We want peace in our city.” Members of the community present at the rally echoed the sentiments of the two speakers. “I just want the truth to come out,” said Martin Ross, a member of the church. “If it was another ethnicity, they would be in jail seeing time.” Other onlookers at the protest were less ready to accept the criticisms of Bennett and the church. “There is a lot of misunderstanding of the Duke community,” senior David Krauss said. “The light that Duke has been portrayed in is categorically incorrect. Nobody is doing stories about the good of the Duke-Durham Initiative because that doesn’t make good news.” Krauss also addressed accusations that Duke’s campus is racially divided. “The first time I heard about the idea that Duke was a ‘plantation’ of the South was in a newspaper, so that must say something,” he said. Other students, like sophomore Hasnain Zaidi, are rallying efforts to “bring to light the other side of Duke.” In an e-mail, Zaidi explained that he plans to create a short film with the theme of “The Real Duke” to “capture Duke kids that are constructively engaging in their
community.”
“It hurts me to see the way Duke is being shown to the nation and world,” he wrote. “This whole incident is horrific by itself... and I hope that [the movie] will help us work towards a solution.”

as one of the institution’s crowning achievements In early 1940, the impending war loomed over Duke’s campus and medical establishments. University administrators initially turned down offers from the Army and Navy to establish medical units for overseas services in emergencies. The University cited a need to focus on its heavy patient and teaching loads. After France was invaded, however, officials resigned themselves to the war’s in-
tion. Iraqi leaders also want their Arab neighbors to forgive their debt and condemn the insurgents, most of whom are Sunni Arabs. But Arab nations appear increasingly worried about Iranian influence in Iraq and the possibility that Shiite power there will stir up Shiite minorities in their countries. Last year, Jordan’s King Abdullah II warned that Iran was seeking to create “a Shiite crescent” that would disrupt the balance of power in the region. Saudi Foreign Minister Saudi al-Faisal made similar warnings. Arab leaders at the Khartoum summit expressed deep concern over plans for U.S.-Iranian talks over Iraq, fearing that meant they were being squeezed out of a say in the country. Arab governments are countering by trying to form their own united stance on Iraq. Arab foreign ministers are due to meet in Cairo Wednesday to discuss Iraq. Last week, Arab diplomats told The Associated Press that top intelligence officers from several Arab countries and Turkey have been meeting secretly to coordinate their governments’ strategies in case civil war erupts in Iraq and to block Iranian interference. Turkey, a key non-Arab Sunni Muslim nation bordering Iraq, is worried about Iraq’s split into sectarian and ethnic entities that will give rise to Kurdish ambitions for independence. The Cairo-based Arab League also is planning a meeting of leaders of the Iraqi factions ahead of a proposed conference that will bring together representatives of Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis in June. For Shiites around the region, Mubarak’s remarks hinted at Arab governments lining up against their community. “We do not beg for certificates of allegiance to our countries from Mubarak or others,” Kuwaiti Shiite lawmaker Hassan Jawhar said in a press conference held in

Neuropsychiatry. The University signed a deal with the Army Oct. 17, 1940 to work as the 65th General Hospital if called on in an emergency situation. Duke also affiliated itself with the 65th during World War I. Doctors and administrators began preparing for war. Ten days after the strike on Pearl Harbor Dec. 7, 1941, Duke was the first medical school in America to adopt a mandatory four-quarter schedule. Each student would receive their degree after three years of consecutive schooling instead of four. Also, in the midst of the war, administrators allowed one year of Army or Navy Medical Corps work to be counted toward a compulsory two-year postgraduate re-
quirement. Administrators increased the size of the class by 10 percent in order to fill the rapidly growing need for doctors. “As would be expected for patriotic reasons, as well as because our oldest graduates are younger than those of other schools... Duke had the highest percentage of medical alumni on active duty,” Dr. Wilburt Davison, the first dean of Duke Hospital and the School of Medicine, wrote in a book tracing the first 20 years of medicine at Duke. “The majority of the 722 graduates and postgraduates... who had completed at least nine months of in-

ternship were medical officers on active duty in the Army... stationed in practically every theater of war.” The 65th was placed on active duty in
July 1942. The unit then underwent basic training at Fort Bragg and waited for facilities to be built. “After 15 months’ training and the process of staging, waiting and restaging, involving three moves and an overseas trip, the 65th was finally able to function as a whole,” Davison wrote. “The major job at first was to equip and furnish the hospital. Off-duty hours were spent inspecting the English countryside via bicycle, studying cathedral architecture and adapting one’s individual physiology to British beer, no perspiration and Brussels sprouts.” March 4, 1944 was the first day of full operation for the Duke-affiliated 65th General Hospital. One thousand heavy bombers attacked Berlin by day, and 23 men needed treatment that night. Before doctors could finish tending to those
wounds, two planes crashed on take-off, and the injured were admitted in the early morning. Thus began 20 months of continual operation for the hospital. In all, the unit treated more than 17,250 patients during its time in England with a mortality rate of less than four-tenths of 1 percent. “If they came in breathing, if they were alive, they had a 99 and six-tenths percent chance of making it. That’s a better rate than the average civilian hospital for trauma cases,” Brown noted. The group labored 16 hours straight after D-Day. “We worked very, very hard,” said Dorothy Salerno, Nursing ’4O who oversaw an orthopedic ward for the 65th. “After the second Christmas there, we sometimes felt the war was never going to end.” The 65th ceased operations Aug. 29, 1945. The unit still reunites every year at Duke.

Mike Van Pelt
THE CHRONICLE
JJ. Redick added another trophy to his mantel Saturday. Duke’s all-time leading scorer won the John R. Wooden Award as the nation’s best college basketball player in the third-closest balloting in the history of the award. Redick narrowly won over his friend and Gonzaga junior Adam Morrison. “I’m extremely honored to receive this award,” Redick said. “All the candidates were very deserving. I never set out to win individual awards. To win is just a huge honor.” Morrison finished 72 points behind Redick, followed by Duke’s Shelden Williams in third, Villanova’s Randy Foye in fourth and Washington’s Brandon Roy in fifth. With the Wooden in hand, Redick completed a sweep of all the major player of the year awards this season, despite the fact that Morrison finished ahead of Redick in scoring for the season. Morrison averaged 28.1 points to Redick’s 26.8. “Society always wants to pick a winner,” Gonzaga head coach Mark Few said. “I don’t know how you can choose between the two of them. They’ve been great for college basketball. They’ve raised the attention up a notch this year.” The two players engaged in a bicoastal scoring batde that captured the nation’s attention, but both maintained that their teams’ successes were more important. Both Gonzaga and Duke ranked within the top 10 for the entire year, and both teams advanced to the Sweet 16 before being eliminated from the NCAA Tournament. “We’re both very competitive,” Redick said. “The main thing about it was to help our teams win ball games, and I think we did that.” Morrison echoed that opinion, noting that he was not upset about losing to his close friend. “He’s had a great career,” Morrison said. “That’s the way it goes. I know what I did on the court.” Redick had one of the best offensive years in ACC history. In a two-week span toward the end of February, Redick set numerous prestigious NCAA and ACC records. In a Feb. 14 game against Wake Forest he passed Curtis Staples to set the NCAA all-time record for most career three-pointers, and in the next game, Feb. 19 against Miami, he became the highest scorer in Duke history. He then moved into first place on the ACC scoring charts against Temple Feb. 25. He ended his career with 2,769 points. The Roanoke, Va., native also finished as the NCAA’s all-time career leader in freethrow percentage. Redick is the sixth Duke player to win the award, joining Christian Laettner, Elton Brand, Shane Battier, Jason Williams and Alana Beard, who won two MICHAEL CHANG/THE CHRONICLE years ago to become the first woman to earn the honor.

Duke rolls to 2 straight sweeps on the road BY AnANI) S UNI)ARAM THE CHRONICLE
The Blue Devils were flawless this weekend, sweeping Boston College Friday and Maryland Sunday in two 7-0 blowouts. No. 6 Duke (15-5, 7-1 in the ACC) saw its top player break the school’s all-time record singles PUKE | 7 against the Eagles MARYLAND 0 Ludovic Walter who plays No. 1 singles on the DUKE team and ranks B.C. 0 4th nationally the captured 120th win of his career, surpassing current assistant coach John Ramsey’s record of 119 victories. The senior from Vannes, France was up 6-0, 5-0, looking to blank his opponent and walk off the court with a milestone win. Instead, he gave up the next two games, keeping the second set alive, 5-2. But in the next game, Walter rebounded and ended the final set, 6-2. “He was relieved,” head coach Jay Lapidus said. “It was a long time coming and knew it would happen eventually. He was happy to get it done.” Against Maryland (9-8,1-7 in the ACC), the Blue Devils were dominant in every position. On the singles end, every player won in straight sets. The closest matches ended 6-4, 6-4 in favor of respective No. 1 and No. 2 players, Walter and senior Jonathan Stokke. In previous ACC contests, the Blue Devils have struggled to tally team points on the lower end of the singles ladder. Lapidus has frequently rotated the sixth —

position to give players of similar potential the opportunity to compete. This weekend, however, the Blue Devils at the bottom half of the singles lineup won every match. Sophomores Ned Samuelson and Alex Stone, and seniors and Stephen Amritraj Christopher Brown —players who have struggled in the sixth position —combined for a perfect 4-0 record playing in the bottom three positions of the ladder this weekend. “The guys are starting to get a little more confidence,” Lapidus said. “Stephen needed to play some matches after that knee injury last year. I think the guys are starting to feel good low in the lineup as compared to a few weeks ago.” Against Boston College (5-14, 0-7) Friday, Duke entered singles competition without No. 2 Jonathan Stokke. “We just wanted to give some other people chances to play,” Lapidus said. “We decided to give him a little bit of a break. He’s played every dual match this year.” Despite Stokke’s absence in the lineup, the Blue Devils were just as dominant, winning every singles and doubles match. Playing up from the third position, No. 2 Peter Rodrigues, ranked 70th nationally, won in straight sets, 6-3, 6-1. The junior has been a powerful force for Duke this year, notching 17-1 and 6-1 records in dual-match and conference competition, respectively. This week, the Blue Devils will begin a tough string of home matches, beginning with North Carolina Wednesday. “We just have to continue with what we’ve been doing,” Lapidus said. “We’re ready to face it.”

Blue Devils top pair of ranked ACC opponents by
Peter Wyman and Michael Moore THE CHRONICLE
Wrapping up its two-week home stand with a pair ofconference matches, the No. 12 Duke women’s tennis team took care of ACC foes Clemson Saturday and Georgia Tech Sunday. No. 14 Duke (15-5, 8-1 in the ACC) pounced on the GA.TECH No. 24 Tigers (136, 6-3) to open DUKE the weekend with a convincing 6-1 CLEMSON victory at the DUKE Sheffield Indoor Center, Tennis but the Blue Devils fell behind to an early 2-0 deficit to the No. 12 Yellow Jackets before storming back to claim a 5-2 upset victory on Senior Day. Playing outdoors at Ambler Stadium Sunday, Duke uncharacteristically lost the doubles point, as No. 12 Georgia Tech (165, 7-2) took all three closely fought doubles contests. “We had plenty of opportunities in the doubles, but we just didn’t convert,” Duke head coach Jamie Ashworth said. “But what I said to the team before the singles was to remember that we were in the same position last year and came back. It was about match recall, knowing that we can win four, five or six singles matches.” Junior Daniela Bercek, Duke’s No. 1 and the nation’s No. 6 singles player, did not provide one of the wins. Facing topranked Kristi Miller of Georgia Tech, Bercek played a tough first set but lost control of her overheads in the second, as

CHRONICLE
JenniferZika (above) and her doubles partner Daniela Bercek split their doubles matches this weekend. Miller took control for a 7-5, 6-2 win “[Miller] is probably the best I’ve played this season,” Bercek said. “But when you’re playing against the top players, it’s such a small difference—one point here or there, and that’s it. She did-
n’t give me any free points. She just played better today.” Ashworth took an optimistic view on Bercek’s loss. “It’s good for our team to know that even if [Bercek] loses, we can win,” Ash-
worth said. “I’d love to have her win, but it’s important for us to realize what we can do regardless of what happens at the No. 1 spot.” Down 2-0 after the loss at the top position, the Blue Devils’ other singles players stepped up in dramatic fashion. After straight-set wins by Jackie Carleton and Clelia Deltour at the second and fifth positions, respectively, freshman Tara Iyer fought back from a first set tiebreaker loss to take the next two sets, 6-1, 6-2. Fellow freshman Jessi Robinson followed that up with a gutsy performance of her own. Already up a set, Robinson led the second 4-1, but faltered down the stretch and dropped the set, 7-5. In the decisive third set, she played through a calf injury to capture a 7-5 victory and clinch the match for the Blue Devils. “If I was going to fight it out, I might as well win,” Robinson said. “It was important for me to pull out a big match, because it’s been a while!” Duke was much more dominant in the team’s win over Clemson Saturday. The Blue Devils’ No. 2 doubles pair, Carleton and Mang, rolled over their Tiger opponents, 8-1. The No. 3 duo of Iyer and Robinson also won, 8-6, to capture the doubles point for Duke. The Blue Devils’ No. 1 pair of Bercek and junior Jennifer Zika continued play and upset the ninthranked doubles pair, 9-8 (4). Duke continued its dominance in singles competition, winning five of the six matches in straight sets. The Tigers only point came at the No. 5 position, where Robinson was forced to retire while leading, 2-1, in the third set.

Coombs Field. “It’s pretty self-
planatory—
routine pretty plays and we didn’t make them,” manager Sean McNally said. “In this league and to play at this level, you have to catch the ball better and our guys know that. It certainly was a key factor in the game.” The Blue Devils had won Friday’s opener, 4-3, but were defeated, 7-3, Saturday. The rubber game began to slip away from Duke in the sixth inning, when Virginia broke a 3-3 tie with two runs. Cavalier catcher Ryan Hudson started the rally with a one-out double down the left field line and scored the go-ahead run on a two-out single by Greg Miclat. Miclat moved to second when the Blue Devils failed to cut off the throw to the plate, a miscue that proved costly when the next batter, Tim Henry, singled in Miclat for a 5-3 advantage. Virginia put the game out of reach in the eighth when the Cavaliers batted around while crossing the plate six times. Errors by left fielder Adam Murray and third baseman Kyle Kreick—who had three errors in the game—allowed the Cavaliers to push the lead to 8-3. Virginia took advantage of the extra outs when David Adams hit a two-out, three-run blast to left field for an 11-3 lead. Four of the Cavaliers’ six runs in the inning were unearned. Duke had jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first off Virginia starter Mike Ballard (5-2). Nate Freiman drove in Jimmy Gal-
lagher with an RBI single and later scored on a groundout by Javier Socorro. Virginia responded with a run in each
of the next three innings to take the lead. After Miclat’s two-out RBI single got the Cavaliers on the board in the second, Virginia tied the game in the third with an unearned run. Brandon Marsh’s grounder bounced through the legs of first baseman Jonathan Nicolla to start the inning. Two batters later, Brett Bartles threw away David Adams’ grounder to allow Marsh to score the tying run. In the fourth, Kreick’s throwing error on Miclat’s bunt loaded the bases with no one out. After a sacrifice fly from Henry, Bartles redeemed himself by smoothly turning a 6-6-3 double play to end the inning and limit the damage. The Blue Devils tied it in the bottom of the inning on a run-scoring single by Nicolla. That was all Duke would manage the rest of the way, however, as Ballard shut the Blue Devil offense down. The senior southpaw pitched eight innings, allowing only three runs on six hits. [Ballard] is an experienced guy on the mound who’s had success in the ACC,” McNally said. “I thought we came out, did a good job in the first inning jumping on him to try to seize momentum a little bit, but he did a good job from there out.” Duke won one game against the nationally-ranked Cavaliers, though. For the second Friday in a row, the Blue Devils won in their final at-bat. After last week’s 16-inning win at Boston College, senior Adam Murray won the series-opener with a one-out single in the bottom of the ninth for a 4-3 walkoff win. Murray’s heroics gave junior ace Danny Otero his fifth win of the season. Otero (52) went the distance for the second time this season, allowing the three runs on nine hits with four strikeouts. ‘You want to start everyACC series with a win and we did that,” McNally said. “This club knows we can play better and that’s why we’re kind of disappointed coming out of this weekend. We knew they were going to play well, which they did, we just didn’t match them the last two games.” “
Duke's pitching has struggled this season,recording an ACC-worst 6.81 ERA this season.

W.LAX from TC page 1 the Wildcats. “They’re two tough, ACC-caliber teams.” Northwestern had won its first 10 games of the season, while Duke was coming off its first loss of the year, an 1110 heartbreaker against Virginia April 1. After trading pairs of goals in the first four minutes, the Blue Devils’ 8-1 scoring spurt was kicked off by two goals from Duke career points leader Katie Chrest. She tallied the first off an assist from Jester and the second on a free position. After Caroline Cryer quick-sticked a shot to the top-right corner past Wildcat goalie Morgan Lathrop, increasing the Duke lead to 6-2, Northwestern called a timeout to regroup. It did not stop the Blue Devil barrage, however, as Duke racked up two more goals before the Wildcats could respond. “We knew we could score,” Kimel said. “We weren’t concerned about scoring, we knew if we had the ball we would generate shots.... We wanted to make sure we took care of the ball in transition.” After leading 11-4 at the half, Duke extended its advantage to nine at 15-6 with 16:59 remaining in the game. The Wildcats, however, went on an unanswered four-goal spree over the next 10 minutes that cut the Duke lead to five, forcing Kimel to call a timeout. “We had to be a lot more calm and organized on defense,” she said. “We were jumping double teams on them so early, and we didn’t need to do that. We were handicapping ourselves by being overly aggressive.” The Blue Devils responded, not allowing Northwestern to score the rest of the contest, and Meeghan Ford scored the last goal of the game with Just over a minute to play. “Finally, we’ve put a full game together,” said attack-
er Leigh Jester, who contributed two goals and four assists to the Duke attack. “We come out, blow teams away in the first half, and let them come back in the second half. We’ve never had a truly satisfying win, but today was awesome.” The momentum from the huge win did not carry immediately over to Sunday’s matchup with Notre Dame. Duke trailed by two goals at halftime, but the Blue Devils picked up their play in the second half, using a 5-0 run early in the period to defeat the Fighting Irish. “Our win on Friday was so much fun and so exciting for our team and the program, so we knew the win wouldn’t mean anything if we lost today,” Duke’s Rachel Sanford said. Chrest scored just nine seconds into the game, but the Blue Devils were then held scoreless for the next 14 minutes while Notre Dame recorded three straight goals. Although Duke tied the game at three, the Fighting Irish kept up their attack and ended the half up two, winning six draw controls to Duke’s five, and with goalie Carol Dixon totaling 11 saves to Megan Huether’s five. “We knew that we needed to take control of the draw and get the ground balls and really get the heart and hustle categories,” Sanford said. “We really did that in the second half.” Down 8-6 five minutes into the second half, the Blue Devils went on a five-goal run, including two scores from Sanford and Jester each, to put Duke ahead 11-8. “Leigh had a great game. She was really poised,” Kimel said. “Rachel made a huge difference all over the field, maybe not so much in the scoring column, but caused turnovers, ground balls, the draw.” The Fighting Irish would have the last two goals of the game, but to no avail. As the clock ticked down, the Blue Devils played keep-away in the Notre Dame half to seal the win.

Varsity 8 finishes 1 st at Lake Wheeler Invite BY
the Columbus meet, the young second varsity eight needed to find a team rhythm. “In the final, we were all pulling extremely hard but just not together,” sophomore Iraina Miles said. “We need to build the trust in ourselves that we are fully capable of racing as hard as we can —not on an individual level, but as a whole boat that everybody is pulling as hard as possibly we can.” In the varsity four race, Duke had an easy time defeating Eastern Michigan with a time of 8:00.9 in Heat B, before finishing third in the grand final. The second varsity four crew fell to Bucknell and Navy, crossing the finish line in 8:36.20.

RALEIGH Despite a sky laden with clouds and tough water conditions, heavy the rowing team gained a sunny confidence Saturday. The Blue Devils won the first varsity eight and saw great improvement on their other boats Saturday at the Lake Wheeler Invitational, the first home race Duke has ever hosted. The Blue Devil’s first varsity eight started the day with a strong performance in Heat A against Tulsa, George Washington and Southern Methodist. The crew’s quick start established its leading position in the first half of the 2000-meter race, and the advantage was further extended through the last 1000m. Duke defeated the runnerup GW by more than a boat length and finished 6:48.20. Because of an inclement weather outlook, the race schedule was compressed, giving the crews less time between races. The quick turnaround did not hinder the Blue Devils’ performance, however, in the first varsity eight grand final. The crew managed to continue its good catches and strokes against a tougher water condition, breaking its earlier record by more than five seconds and beating the other three boats from North Carolina, Navy and GW. “The biggest thing I saw that was different from last weekend is just much more aggressiveness in the stroke,” head coach Robyn Homer said. “They were locking the blades in really well and really driving aggressively.

The team beat Eastern Michigan, UNC and Tulsa with a time of 7:04.9 in Heat B and entered the grand final, in which they lost to Eastern Michigan, Bucknell and Navy, placing fourth among all
eight boats. “Sometimes when a crew comes off from a tough race, I always try to find the silver edge in the cloud and try to get our leaders to step up,” assistant coach Jim Lister said. “This boat has a bunch of racers that want to be successful. They are eager to win and perform well.” After switching to a new boat following

It is more distracting.” Shapiro said it is important for the team to have such experiences before going into the ACCs, which will be held April 22 at Clemson University. “I thought this was a good and solid race, something we can build on going into ACC,” Homer said. “Virginia has won the ACC every year. They are definitely the crew that everyone is going to be shooting for in the varsity eight. I would like us to be in a position where we are comfortably in the second spot and trying to challenge Virginia.”

Blaum takes individual title as Duke claims 2nd by
Andrew Yaffe
THE CHRONICLE
One week after earning their first tourvictory of the Spring, the 18thranked Blue Devils finished - in second place, four strokes behind victorious No. 27 Kentucky Saturday at the Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate. Ryan Blaum, the nation’s llth-ranked golfer, dominated the field, winning by six strokes and finishing the tournament at 14-under par. “This may have been the best performance [of his career],” head coach Rod Myers said. “He just played an outstanding tournament. It was really exciting to watch him play. He had tremendous control and really putted well.” Blaum played his best golf on his opening nine holes, carding six birdies en route to a sparkling 30. He finished the round at seven under and shot a 70 in round two, which left him one stroke off the lead entering the last day. His final-round 67 propelled him past second-round leader Nicolas Geyger of Tulsa, who finished the weekend in fourth place. Duke entered the final round in third place—one stroke off the lead held by Kentucky and North Carolina. But Blaum’s final round score, along with junior Jake Grodzinsky’s 73, propelled the Blue Devils to a two-over mark on the final day. Grodzinsky, ranked 20th in the nation, fired a 3-under-par 33 on the first nine holes of the tournament, but he could not match that pace the rest of the weekend. He carded a 72 and a 73 in the final two rounds and finished in a tie for ninth—his second straight top-10 performance. “Jake’s playing really well,” Myers said. “We were both frustrated. He didn’t make very many putts over the weekend—he hit nament

the ball better than he scored. He’s probably disappointed that he wasn’t several
strokes lower each round.” Even with Duke’s strong finish, however, Myers said that many of the team members were disappointed that they could not pull out a second straight victory. “We definitely thought we had a chance to win it, we were only one stroke back we were very optimistic,” Myers said. “The main difference between Kentucky’s score and our score is that they had all 5 guys in the mix shooting 73 or better.” Instead, the bottom three members of the Blue Devils’ lineup struggled to notch consistent scores. On the final day, Duke’s bottom two scorers —Clark Klaasen and Bryce Mueller—each scored 775, so Duke had to have one of the high marks count toward its score. Klaasen played a solid tournament overall, however. He stormed out of the gates, notching a five-under-par 31 on the tournament’s first nine holes but did not score another side under par. He entered Saturday in a tie for 16th place at even par but fell to a 35th-place tie Saturday, recording three double-bogeys on the tournament’s final 11 holes. “He made a couple cosdy double-bogeys, but he’s still just a freshman, so I expect him to make a few mistakes,” Myers said. “I tried to tell these guys before the tourney that if they played smart, this would not be a double-bogey course.... I don’t know whether he lost confidence or just had a couple ofbad breaks.” This tournament was the team’s last before the ACC Championships start April 21. Myers has said that Blaum and Grodzinsky are each locks to be in the starting lineup but that the other three spots are currently up for grabs. —

Mickelson grabs 2nd Green Jacket Hodge let out of hospital Doug Ferguson THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
by
AUGUSTA, Ga. Phil Mickelson is a Masters champion again, and now he’s making it look easy. Once known as a lovable loser who needed a dozen years to figure out how to win golfs biggest events, Mickelson captured his second straight major Sunday at Augusta National—and this one was hardly a nail-biter. He closed with a 3-under 69 for a two-shot victory over Tim Clark, and his second green jacket in three years. . The only surprise was the way he won. There were no thrills for Phil, rather calculated shots that forced Fred Couples, Tiger Woods and Vijay Singh to try to catch him. Instead, they stumbled along with three-putts and a litany of other mistakes that allowed Mickelson to stroll up the 18th fairway already knowing how this major would end. “In ‘O4 when I won, I felt this great feeling of relief that I could win the tournament I dreamt about,” Mickelson said. “This time, it’s a great feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment to have been able to beat such a great field.” The rest of the Big Five was lined up behind him, all within four shots going into the final round. None could touch him. Mickelson finished at 7-under 281 and earned $1.26 million, putting him atop the PGA Tour money list. The victory also moved him up to No. 2 in the world ranking behind Woods. Mickelson has emerged as a major threat to Woods’ pursuit of Jack Nicklaus’ record 18 victories in Grand Slam events. This was the third straight year Mickelson has won a major—Woods is the only other player to have done that in the last 20 years. Only five others have won majors in three straight seasons since the Masters began in 1934. Woods, who was trying to become the first player to twice defend his Masters tide, could only blame his putter. He had two eagle putts inside 15 feet on the back nine and missed them both, and he had six three-putts this week. He holed a 25foot birdie on the 18thhole that just about made him curse, although it gave him a 70 and a tie for third. “I putted atrociously today,” Woods said. “As good as I hit it, that’s as bad as I putted.” At the green jacket ceremony, Mickelson asked the crowd for a moment of silence to pray for Woods’ father, Earl, who could not travel to Augusta for the first time because of cancer. Joining Woods at 4-under 284 were Couples (71), Relief Goosen (69), Chad

Campbell (71) and Jose Maria Olazabal, whose 66 was the best score all week on the super-sized course. The course was stretched even more for this Masters—at 7,445 yards, the second-longest in major championship history. Mickelson played it impeccably. The longest par putt he had all day —besides the meaningless one on the 18th hole—was the 5-footer he made after a solid bunker shot on the 10th. “I knew it was going to be a tough day,” Mickelson said. “Fred and I kept saying how much fun it was to be in the final group at the Masters. I was sorry to see what happened at 14. I think we would have had a great duel coming down those last four holes.” Mickelson won for the 29th time on

He took a one-shot lead into the final round by making the fewest mistakes Sunday morning, when the rain-delayed third round was completed in cool, mostly calm conditions. Mickelson shot 70 and was at 4-under 212, the highest 54-hole score to lead the Masters since 1989. Couples shot 72, making two birdies on the final four holes to get into the final group. The possibilities were endless. Ten players were within three shots of the lead, a list that included Woods and Singh. Ten more were within five shots of Mickelson when the final round began. But no one did anything to bring Augusta National to life with the drama so many expected.

Sheriffs deputies said the 22-year-old was shot while driving on Interstate 76 in north Denver at about 2 a.m. Saturday. Investigators said they had no suspects and did not have a motive. Investigators said Hodge had been at the Paladium nightclub, where he had met with hip-hop artist Juelz Santana, who was performing there. Investigators and the Paladium manager said there had been no fight at the club. After Hodge left, another car pulled alongside his and someone inside fired several times into Hodge’s vehicle, authorities said. Hodge stopped and a passenger flagged down a motorist, who took both men to a hospital. “Apparentlyjulius did nothing to provoke this at all,” Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe said. The passenger, whose name was not released, sustained minor injuries, investigators said. Hodge, who played at N.C. State, was Denver’s first-round draft choice in 2005. He has appeared in 14 games for the Nuggets this season, averaging 0.9 points.

‘They wanted to see what an American frat party was like because they were from Scotland,” sophomore Hilary Lenz said. “I think they had a nice time.” Death Cab for Cutie greeted guests and signed autographs outside the venue Friday afternoon.

there is no evidence that someone dance at a March 13 party. Members of the players’ defense team said photographs from the party show the woman to be “very impaired” upon her arrival. The attornies also said the photos corroborate the story the players have told to authorities. The time-stamped images depict cuts and bruises visible on the woman’s body as she began to dance before midnight. She reportedly left the party sometime after 12 a.m. and called 911 from a Kroger grocery store at 1:22 p.m. A 27-minute gap in photos corresponds with a stint during which the woman and another dancer locked themselves in a bathroom, attorney Joe Cheshire, who is representing senior captain Dave Evans, told the News & Observer. Photographs taken after the gap show the woman smiling and wearing a negligee that Cheshire said shows no signs of damage or violence. “These photos are real. We have them, and we will release them if it’s appropriate,” Sutton said. “As we’ve said all along, this is a completely atypical way for a case to progress.

answer, local organizers are preparing
IMMIGRATION from page 1 of a national event taking place in 60 cities, will begin at the Levine Science Research Center at 11:30 a.m. and conclude at 2:00 p.m., when the participants will go to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and join the mobilization effort there. From UNC, the participants will then proceed to Siler City, where a state mobilization effort will be taking place at the town hall. Lasch said he expects several hundred participants to travel to Siler City, a place he described as “anti-immigrant.” “From [former President Bill] Clinton up until now, [politicians] have promised to deal with this issue, but it’s completely unresolved,” he said. “We shouldn’t leave politics to politicians and law to lawyers.” President George W. Bush reinforced his anti-amnesty position on immigration reform during his weekly radio address Saturday. “We must ensure that those who break our laws are not granted an automatic path to citizenship,” he said. “Amnesty would also be unwise, because it would encourage others to break the law and create new waves of illegal immigration.” While Washington struggles to find an
themselves for what may lie ahead. Lasch said organizers hosted an “observer training” session Sunday in Chapel Hill to prepare activists for the potentially hostile environment in Siler City. Lasch said the priority will be to protect recent immigrants from any potential danger. Senior Brian Flores, who will be on hand in Siler City, said “I would be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous or scared.” He said, however, that he is resolved to march anyway. “No matter the circumstances, I owe it to my family and community to do what I can,” Flores said. “To not do anything, considering my background, would be a sin.” Lasch noted that North Carolina is a “test ground for pro- and anti-immigrationists,” as the state is home to one of the fastest-growing populations of immigrants from Central and South America. Flores urged the Duke community to join the discussion because the University “could not function without immigrants.” “We can fool ourselves and pretend there are no undocumented immigrants, but we have eyes,” Lasch said. “It doesn’t help anyone to be blind.” Legislation for immigration reform is not an issue that divides easily along
party lines; conservatives can often be pro-business and in support of the labor immigrants often provide, and liberals are split on the issue, Lasch said. Nevertheless, there are several pieces of legislation currently at the heart of immigration policy reform. Two of the more controversial bills are the Kennedy-McCain bill and H.R.-4437 which the Senate shot down Friday. The Kennedy-McCain bill, which is backed by a “core group” of organizers, aims to enhance border security and implement a program in which undocumented residents who have lived in the United States for at least five years would be able to obtain legal status, granted that they meet various requirements. Lasch said that although many immigration supporters are pleased with the Kennedy-McCain proposal, others question the feasibility of implementing such an initiative. “How would you enforce that? Will you separate families?” Lasch asked, citing two problems individuals often point out when discussing the bill. The White House-backed H.R.-4437, which is largely opposed by immigration supporters, would make illegal immigration a felony and prosecute employers who hire illegal immigrants.

ethical conduct to continue to happen, from steroid use to very public partying and so on. If he is aware of the image and questionable behavior of several teams, and if he allows such questionable behavior to continue, his character and integrity are seriously questionable. Fourthly, Alieva ignored warning signs of trouble and brewing problems in many different programs—in baseball, football and lacrosse most notably, and to a lesser degree, in swimming, rowing and cross country. He also failed to report problems to the administration. Fifthly, it’s clear the University has little confidence and faith in Alieva right now. He’s made one general statement to athletes in the past few weeks. That’s it. When he ap-
peared alongside President Brodhead at the first press conference regarding the rape allegations, Alieva couldn’t do anything but bumble along in Brodhead’s poetic wake. His every statement was both poorly conceived and very poorly delivered. Simply put, he does not have the presence or the polish to be the face of Duke athletics. Now more than ever, we need someone with the same innovation and vision characteristic of Tom Butters —someone to rebuild baseball and football, to bring lacrosse out of scandal, to focus on something other than the basketball program (well-run xm its own). We are simply not going to find that vision in Alieva. Five-plus strikes, Mr. Athletic Director. You’re out of here

And the team wasn’t even winning. That contract renewal brings up another of Alieva’s deficiencies. Coaches he’s hired have been close to him socially —and when compared to the other candidates, it seems that personal connections outweighed other qualifications for the job. Thirdly is the culture among athletes Alieva promotes and oversees. Student athletes should be more regimented and organized as a group than the average Duke student. They have a devotion to their sport—and to the University whose name is emblazoned on their uniforms. With that devotion comes a certain creed, a code of conduct that has to be enforced from the top down. Alleva allowed breaches in
Islam characterization inaccurate I appreciate Jeremy Marshall’s candor in his column (“Time to challenge dogma,” April 6), but unfortunately his assumptions and conclusion only serve to perpetuate a misunderstanding of Islam that many people share. It is regrettable that the media automatically lumps every action committed by any Muslim anywhere in the world into a specter of some internationalmilitant conspiracy. Instead of investigating the causes for violence in the Muslim world, many are content to believe that Muslims are driven to commit atrocious acts simply because their religion preaches it. The verses of scripture that are intended to verify their claims are always the same ones taken out of context. The verse about fighting non-Muslims, for example, was intended simply to permit Muslims to fight in self-defense against those who wage war against them. It is a historically undeniable fact that Islam brought peace to a warring civilization and rights to women in a society that treated them as second-class citizens. The Prophet Muhammad himself said the best among men are those who are best to their wives. Marshall’s interpretation of Islam as barbaric, discriminatory, backward and promoting violence against non-Muslims and women is untrue and wholly rejected by Islam. Yet, these are the attributes critics allege against Muslims, based on the behavior of so few. Muslims welcome dialogue on religious issues, but doing so based on amateur research and common misperceptions is unconstructive at best and dangerous at worst. Instead of reaching out to build understanding with Muslims, words such as Marshall’s only serve to alienate Muslims and drive them away from any constructive dialogue. I urge anyone who truly desires to learn about Islam to talk to a Muslim or come to an MSA meeting. Zubair Chao, Pratt ’O6 President, Muslim Students’ Association
column (“Welcome to the Durham Petting Zoo,” April 5); Since you seem to be about to finish your junior year, I’m curious as to what has thus far stopped you from transferring? After all, since a “petting zoo” that contains the pre-eminent documentary film festival in the country, a nationally celebrated minor league baseball team, and a rich and often overlooked African American historical tradition are not enough to keep you entertained, I’m surprised you have chosen to remain in Durham. Of course, we poor downtrodden local residents, who have so richly benefited from your alltoo-brief presence in Durham, would miss your personal direct contributions to our local culture horribly, but I’m sure you’d find no shortages of rides to the airport. Heck, you might even find us so accommodating as to make sure you don’t let the door hit you on your way out of town.

Media management or education? I am the parent of a Duke student and North Carolina Central University graduate. I remain concerned about the alleged assault by University students. But equally unsettling is the the uncontrolled response by the administration to the “media blitz” by every news outlet big enough to have press credentials. Duke’s campus is not Aruba. It is not, and should not be, open to every reporter who wants to stand in front of the Chapel and report on the deplorable racial conditions on campus. I have a student on campus who is trying to get an education, go to class and learn something other than media management. As a parent, I don’t have the campus access that the administration is providing CNN. President Brodhead, please wake up and get the newsies off campus. Concentrate on delivering the education my son deserves; this is your and the University’s—first priority. Bill Belk —

was planning to write a mockfashion column this week . . seriously. For any of you who actually read Towerview, you must have noticed that the editors often include a fashion piece with commentary and student model to boot. Although intended to provide sound advice on the hottest designer attire, the articles are nothing short of hysterical (check them at www.dukechronicle.com und er magazine jfi j archive). I even had an united we Stand opening line prepared; “I may never have worked at Vogue and my last name isn’t Fortunate but that doesn’t mean I can’t pontificate on the latest trends.” But as so many have said before me, Due to Recent Events, I felt a responsibility to exchange light-hearted humor for critical reflection. From “the e-mail heard round the world” to the two-and-a-half weeks it took President Brodhead to e-mail the entire Duke community, there are just too many questions and individuals involved for me to render an entire column focused on a single issue. It has been three full weeks since The Chronicle first tendered the headline: “Off-East house site of reported rape.” With protests abounding, media vans on main West and crazed Divinity students/English professors, it is important that we take a moment to step back and reflect on what has transpired in and around campus since our return from spring break. I. The Media: In the court of public opinion, the lacrosse team has already been tried, convicted and sentenced to death. .

You know it is bad when my seventy-something grandmother who lives in Boston and spends three days a week on dialysis starts talking to me about something related to Duke besides basketball and whether or not I have made any nice “lady friends.” I do not want to diminish the magnitude of this alleged crime. It is so heinous and cruel, an accusation not only of sexual assault but also of strangulation, robbery and kidnapping, that I cannot even begin to fathom what kind of monster(s) could have perpetrated such an act. But I am deeply troubled by the fact that there were nearly twice as many articles last week in the New York Times, one of the leading papers in the world, about an alleged isolated crime than there were about the very same crime that has been committed on a near daily basis for the past three years in Darfur, Sudan. 11. Presidential Leadership; We needed Giuliani after 9/11, and we got Bush after Katrina. President Keohane would have never waited 11 days to make her first official public statement about such a serious matter direcdy related to this University and the surrounding community. It is not just because as a woman, she would have felt more comfortable addressing the issues at hand. Rather, it is because Keohane was a brilliant academic as well as a talented administrator who understood when to exert strong leadership (e.g. Women’s Initiative). More poet than politician, President Brodhead fumbled around with pathetically trite calls for “education” and “patience.” I can only hope for Duke’s sake that such ineffectiveness stems from a lack of experience and not from innate character flaws. It is still too early to tell whether the seemingly excessive number of study commissions he has formed—none of which deal explicidy with race —will be little more than a practice in futility or a solid step on the road to recovery. 111. Town-Gown Relations; Do you honestly believe that the varsity men’s lacrosse team represents the Duke stu-
dent body at large? I am absolutely outraged by the fact that local residents surrounding East Campus have attempted to turn the current controversy into a referendum on the entire off-campus social scene. The Trinity Park residents see this terrible tragedy, which at the very least involves inexplicable racial epithets, as an opportunity to rid their community of Duke students once and for all. In one recent posting on the Trinity Park listserve, retired faculty member Laura Guttman quickly jumps from the lacrosse incident to question whether “Duke’s recruiting motto will be: ‘Send your Son and Daughter to Duke: Most of Our Students Haven’t Been Convicted Yet.’” I am sick and tired of debating the off-campus issue with administrators and local residents. The likely cancellation of tailgates will only exacerbate the already tense situation. Brodhead and Larry Moneta can call as many town hall meetings as they like, but until they provide a feasible alternative for senior fraternity members, their endless dialogue will be meaningless. And we all know what the logical solution is—the administration must reconsider its plans for Central Campus. Instead of paying for a goddamn bowling alley, it should build a section of townhouses that would only be open to seniors willing to live in groups of eight to twelve. There would be no single-family neighbors, seniors could throw house parties and Duke students would finally get recognized for their positive contributions to Durham as loyal customers and committed volunteers. I am set to graduate in five weeks, and I do not intend on spending my last remaining days as an undergraduate obsessing over every little detailreleased by the profit-driven press. For all of those interesting in protesting, you should channel that positive energy into the Darfur Rally in Washington April 30 and wait for the North Carolina judicial system to run it course. Adam

Overheard in Alpine
It’s
been a wild few weeks at Duke. And the women’s basketball team was slightly disappointed. JACK BAUER’S BIDET didn’t monopolize as much space as he usually does last week, and three open letters were omitted. So here they are;

Coversations Overheard at Duke, Slightly Modified to Be ConsistentWith the School’s Portrayal by Psychotic Wackos and The Media, With All Apologies to the Movie Crash:
In the LSRC Professor Quark: Mike, if you’re going to show up late to class, don’t show up at all. Mike: Sorry, Dr. Q. The “whites-only” line at Alpine was moving extra slowly today. At Bostock A Transsexual “Guy”; I think we should have unisex bathrooms. A Dude Who Wears His Y Chromosome On His Sleeve: Why is that? ATG: It makes me more comfortable, not having to self-identily my ambiguous gender. ADWWHYCOHS: Yeah, but then we’d have to get rid of the separate colored bathrooms.
An Open Letter to Tom Wolfe Re: Better late than never Hey, Whitesuit! Turns out you wrote a book about Duke 18 years ago It’s called Bonfire of the Vanities. Thanks for playing, Charlotte Simmons
In Teer Basement Ted: How’d you do on the test? Tyrone; Okay, I guess. I studied extremely hard but had trouble with the third question. Ted: Yeah, I just used my white male privilege and got a 98. Susan: I would have aced it but I messed up the true/false section. Ted: Whatever. Make me a pie and exist solely for my sexual gratification, object.
PHEW. JACKBAUER’S BIDET is glad that’s out of the way. JACK has been tempted to weigh in on the Ex-Lax© scandal, but in the words of some angry families of victims of the French revolution, “too soon.” So JACK went looking around campus for evidence of the “embedded white supremacy” and “white, male privilege.” Couldn’t find any. But JACK knows what CNN wants to see, so without
In the Admissions Office Admissions Officer #1: Okay, so how will we get the number of applications down for the class of 2011? Admissions Officer #2: Well, we could make white men actually fill out the application instead of checking the relevant box and being accepted summarily. Christoph Guttentag: I think it’s entirely reasonable

further ado,
that students must be certified scratch golfers to apply, and pass a basic yachting skills equivalency exam as a prereq for all classes.
In Social Sciences Dan; Hey, are you gonna crash e-kegs with me later today? Alex: Nah, I think I’m gonna hit up Campus Council’s Hidemational At the Great Hall Stephen: What should I get to drink with this cookie? Nate: 2% milk. Chocolate milk is inferior based on my personally espoused hierarchy of liquids. Cameron Indoor Stadium, following Dockery’s “shot II”. The band begins to play the Alma Mater. Students, singing: “Deutsch-land, Deutschland u-ber all-es!”
In Edens Albert: Damn I have to move my car from the Blue Zone for tailgate [JACK’S note: Please don’t make this an anachronism] David: No, it’s cool. All white men at this school have valets now. On the Quad James: Hey! Matt! What’s going on? I haven’t seen you in forever! Matt: I hate minorities and think I’m better than all other people. What’s up with you? That should hold the jackals for another few days
JACK is pleased, proud and ineffably honored to be the first Chronicle contributor to coin the “Ex-Lax”© phrase. Carver Moore finds this joke distasteful but will be collecting royalties for the use of the phrase excepting this issue of this publication. Seriously. HIDE YOURSELVES ON GOOGLE.
