Nicholaus Bates, a senior from Chicago studying administration of justice Omega Psi Phi member, said the fraternity has helped more than 2,500 people register to vote since the group began its efforts Aug. 24. He said the fraternity set up a voter registration table during the 2008 presidential election but increased its efforts this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to start earlier rather than later, and we even extended our cut-off date from the first week in September to the Friday before fall break because we realized it was several people who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know we were doing this,â&#x20AC;? Bates said.

The fraternity set up tables in the Faner breezeway, the Student Center and campus dining halls as well as around Carbondale, saying they hoped to get as many people registered as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to raise awareness so students could get involved, stay involved and stay attentive to whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on even after the election,â&#x20AC;? said Larry Luster, an SIU alumnus from Springfield and fraternity member.

Lamar Johnson, a senior from Chicago studying health care management Omega Psi Phi member, said he thinks itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for student voices to be heard because either candidate would effect students, no matter the outcome. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each candidate has different views in regards to money,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Students need to educate themselves and understand that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the ones being attacked.â&#x20AC;?

During registration, one person insisted the fraternity take down an Obama campaign sign it had posted behind the table because of legality issues. The group took the sign down and continued to register voters.

Larry Reinhardt, Jackson Country clerk and recorder, said 33,995 people were registered to vote in the county as of Friday. He said 1,195 people between the ages of 18 and 24 have registered since Aug. 1, and he expects that amount to continue to increase.

John Hinde, of Carbondale, owner of Whitetails and Waterfowl Taxidermy in Murphysboro, works Tuesday to pose an eastern wild turkey while his daughter, 9-year-old Carlisle Hinde watches. John Hinde said he has worked as a taxidermist for 30 years, half of which were spent in Carbondale. Hinde, who originally started as an artist, said taxidermy was a way for him to get better material for artwork. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I still enjoy it today,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a form of art.â&#x20AC;? Hindeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s twin daughters Carlisle and Cayden Hinde said they are excited to go on their first deer hunt with their dad this year. John Hinde said he looks forward to the bonding time with his daughters.

With 27 days between the candidates and Election Day, the race for the senate seat of Rep. Jerry Costello, D-Belleville, is in full swing. So far, the district that encompasses SIU campuses in Carbondale and Edwardsville could be a toss-up between

Jason Plummer, R-Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Fallon, and William Enyart, D-Belleville, according to The New York Times race ratings.

Enyart said 55 percent of 12th district voters favored President Barack Obama in 2008, but 51 percent favored Rep. Mark Kirk for senator two years later. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No one could correctly label this district Republican or Democrat,â&#x20AC;? he said.

After the Aug. 15 candidatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; debate at the WSIU-TV studio in Carbondale, an aggressive contest between Enyart and

Plummer began to take form, which was made evident in the most recent debate.

The Sept. 15 debate at the Marion Cultural & Civic Center had an often personal and heated tone between the Democratic and Republican nominees, as the two accused each other of lying, particularly when it came to whether Plummer supports the budget unveiled last year by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., the Republican nominee for vice president.

*URXS DLPV WR SUHYHQW ZLOG WXUNH\ JREEOH XS 0$77 '$5$< 'DLO\ (J\SWLDQ A new Registered Student Organization plans to keep the hunting tradition alive while simultaneously conserving the animals it hunts.

The National Wild Turkey Federation, a group on campus completing paperwork to become an RSO, shares the goals of an organization of the same name. The national organization is a not-for-profit conservation and education group dedicated to conserving wild turkeys and preserving the hunting heritage.

Ross Smith, a senior from Perry studying forestry who started the initiative to form the RSO, said the group will accept anyone, even if his or her major has nothing to do with hunting or forestry.

Smith said he got involved because he was a former Juniors Acquiring Knowledge, Ethics and

He said he decided to form the RSO after he found out others had a like-minded passion for turkey hunting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people think turkeys are stupid,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think they are harder to hunt than deer.â&#x20AC;?

Smith said turkeys have better senses, except for smell, and are smarter than deer, which makes them more of a challenge to hunt.

He said he wanted the NWTFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Carbondale chapter to help support the RSO. Its support makes the RSO the first collegiate chapter in Illinois.

Smith said the RSO has around 15 to 20 members and looks to increase its size.

The NWTF organization encompasses more than 250,000 members and volunteers and has helped restore and manage North Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population of more than 7 million wild turkeys, according to the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website. In addition, the NWTF has acquired or improved habitats on more than 17 million acres of public, private and corporate lands and spent more than $372 million to conserve habitats to uphold the hunting heritage.

4QBDF9 %SBHPO DBQTVMF MBVODIFE UP TQBDF TUBUJPO $VVRFLDWHG 3UHVV CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A commercial cargo ship rocketed into orbit Sunday in pursuit of the International Space Station, the first of a dozen supply runs under a megacontract with NASA. It was the second launch of a Dragon capsule to the orbiting lab by the California-based SpaceX company. The first was last spring.

This time was no test flight, however, and the spacecraft carried 1,000 pounds of key science experiments and other precious gear on this truly operational mission. There was also a personal touch: chocolate-vanilla swirl ice cream tucked in a freezer for the three station residents.

The companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unmanned Falcon rocket roared into the night sky right on time, putting SpaceX on track to reach the space station Wednesday.

The complex was soaring southwest of Tasmania when the Falcon took flight.

Officials declared the launch a success, despite a problem with one of the nine first-stage engines. The rocket put Dragon in its intended orbit, said the billionaire founder and chief executive officer of SpaceX, Elon Musk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s driving its way to station, so

thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just awesome,â&#x20AC;? noted SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell.

NASA is counting on private business to restock the space station, now that the shuttles have retired to museums. The space agency has a $1.6 billion contract with SpaceX for 12 resupply missions.

The Dragon will spend close to three weeks at the space station before being released and parachuting into the Pacific at the end of October. By then, the space station should be back up to a full crew of six.

None of the Russian, European or Japanese cargo ships can bring anything back; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re destroyed during re-entry. The Russian Soyuz crew capsules have limited room for anything besides people.

Space Exploration Technologies Corp., or SpaceX â&#x20AC;&#x201D; owned by PayPal co-founder Musk â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is working to convert its unmanned Dragon capsules into vessels that could carry astronauts to the space station in three years. Other U.S. companies also are vying to carry crews. Americans must ride Russian rockets to orbit in the meantime, for a steep price.

Musk, who monitored the launch from SpaceX Mission Control in Hawthorne, Calif., called the capsules Dragon after the magical Puff to

get back at critics who, a decade ago, considered his effort a fantasy.

The name Falcon comes from the Millennium Falcon starship of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Star Warsâ&#x20AC;? fame.

An estimated 2,400 guests jammed the launching center to see the Falcon, with its Dragon, come to life for SpaceXâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first official, operational supply mission.

Across the country at SpaceX headquarters, about 1,000 employees watched via TV and webcast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just over a year after the retirement of the space shuttle, we have returned space station cargo resupply missions to U.S. soil,â&#x20AC;? said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden Jr. Another company looking to haul space station cargo, Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Orbital Sciences Corp., hopes to launch a solo test flight in December and a demo mission to the station early next year.

Every time SpaceX or a competitor flies successfully, Bolden told reporters, â&#x20AC;&#x153;that gives the nonbelievers one more opportunity to get on board and root for usâ&#x20AC;? and help enable commercial launches for space station astronauts. This will further free NASA up to aim for points beyond low-Earth orbit, like Mars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was a big night,â&#x20AC;? Bolden concluded Sunday.

The organization also supports programs such as JAKES, Women in the Outdoors and Wheelin' Sportsmen programs. These groups have helped children, women and disabled individuals learn to enjoy the outdoors, understand the importance of wildlife management, and appreciate hunting as an honorable pursuit, according the group's website.

James Garver, district adviser to the Auburn-based NWTF Flatlanders chapter, said the organization is helping to support the RSO. He said he has been a chapter member for 12 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We basically give them ideas on how to fundraise,â&#x20AC;? Garver said.

Smith said the group will help oversee the RSO until it establishes itself and can be self-sufficient.

Garver said the organization also offers students certain scholarships, including the Land of Lincoln scholarship, which can grant students up to $1,500 a year.

Although the fire station is designed to decrease energy usage with radiant floor heat, some council members think more should be done to create a facility that will be conducive to energy savings in the future.

Councilman Lance Jack said at the meeting that in his nine years with the council, a goal of the group has been to make progressive movements to save money, but the Council has rarely chosen to pursue such actions because the progressive plans are initially more expensive.

Since the building is still in the design process, Jack said the council

He said this is the first time the organization has worked with the university or its students.

Smith said the RSO plans to host a NWTF banquet and raise awareness of conservation programs planned in the next year.

Jon Dye, a junior from Redman studying forestry and vice president of the RSO, said he heard Smith talk about the group and decided to help out. Dye said the organization is not solely based on turkey hunting, but it encourages other outdoor activities such as camping. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you are an outdoorsman, (then) this is the RSO for you,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Dye said the RSO looks to help the NWTF in many ways, including helping with the programs the national organization assists.

He said anyone is welcome, even people with little-to-no hunting experience.

Jack said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just worried that now here we are into our second big building in the last several years, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still hemming and hawing on the fence as to pushing forward in a direction thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really going to pay off in the long run.â&#x20AC;?

Councilman Chris Wissmann said geothermal technology is usually successful in areas where there is a considerable amount of stone in the geography that can store heat in the winter and release

it in the summer. Cold air would then be released in the summer as it stores underground in the winter months, he said.

Wissmann said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the architectsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; jobs to determine the jobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cost, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job to determine if the cost is acceptable in accordance with how much money can be saved in the long run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In different types of environments and different types of typography, (geothermal technology) doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work as well,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You kind of need the environment and the geology, and it will do it right.â&#x20AC;?

Today, the wild turkey is a resident in every Illinois county with around 150,000 in the state, according to the University of Illinois Extension.

These numbers are higher than states such as Arkansas, which reported around 115,000 turkeys last year, and West Virginia, which reported 95,000. Even though Illinois now has a larger turkey population than 50 years ago, the number is still lower than the 155,000 in Virginia, 350,000 in Mississippi and around 610,000 in Texas. Wild turkeys are also indigenous to these areas.

Plecki said she attributes the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s camaraderie to coach Audra Nothwehr. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She had been really talking to us about being a family this week,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We went out and proved that we were.â&#x20AC;?

The Salukis took the second set as easily as the first with another team hitting percentage higher than .400.

Evansville came within four points twice in the third set, only for SIU to answer with a four-point run with kills from Mayes and junior outside hitter Jessica Whitehead and two blocks from freshman middle blocker Taylor Pippen.

Sophomore setter Amy Drabant ended the match with 42 assists, and senior libero Bailey Yeager had 20 digs.

The Salukis will be on the road again next weekend with a Friday match against Bradley and a Saturday match against Northern Iowa. Two of SIUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s losses this season were MVC matches on the road, but Ingram said the team is prepared. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hard conference to just jump up and travel like that, but everybody does it,â&#x20AC;? Ingram said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the nature of the beast.â&#x20AC;?

hard-fought game,â&#x20AC;? Pruitt said.

Both junior cornerback Terrell Wilson and junior linebacker Bryan Presume had interceptions in the fourth quarter, capping off a dominant defensive showing.

The Salukis held Illinois State to just 257 yards of total offense, nearly 200 shy of its average coming into the game.

Senior outside hitter Laura Thole passes the ball Friday against University of Evansville during the annual Dig for the Cure night at Davies Gym. Tholeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10 kills helped the Salukis defeat the Purple Aces in three sets. The Salukis wore pink socks and sweat bands to recognize cancer survivors and signed autographs for fans after the match, which was sponsored by Southern Illinois Healthcare. The Salukisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; next match will be at 6 p.m. Friday at Bradley University in Peoria.

it was the first time his team had been faced with adversity during the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It should be a learning moment for our team,â&#x20AC;? he said.

SIU had its own offensive struggles as it accumulated only 182 total offensive yards.

Junior quarterback Kory Faulkner went 7-21 for 73 yards, but senior runningback Steven

Strother kept the offense alive at times as he rushed 15 times for 80 yards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Offensively, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still things that we would like to be doing better,â&#x20AC;? Lennon said.

The victory was a big statement for the Salukis, who have won three of their last four games and are now 3-3 on the season and 2-1 in Missouri Valley Football

Conference play.

The team will return to Saluki Stadium at 2 p.m. Saturday against Northern Iowa for the Homecoming game. The Panthers are 1-4 on the season and 0-2 in the MVFC. Alex Rostowsky can be reached at sschneider@dailyegyptian.com or 536-3311 ext. 269.

The Saluki defense proved to be the difference as it shut out a potent Redbird offense that averaged 39.6 points per game in its first five contests.

ISU was unable to convert on 12 third downs and had to punt nine times.

Redbird senior Matt Brown was intercepted by SIU four times. Brown had a total of only three interceptions on the season before the game.

SIU sophomore linebacker Tyler Williamson anchored the suffocating defense with a career performance. He had an interception, a sack and led the defense with seven tackles.

Williamson, who started for injured senior Jayson DiManche, said the key to the game was to contain Brown, a Marion native. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew we had to get after him today,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just tried to contain him all day.â&#x20AC;?

The special teams unit put the Salukis on the board in the first quarter when junior linebacker Cameron James blocked an ISU punt. Freshman safety Anthony Thompson scooped the loose ball and returned it 16 yards for a touchdown.

Coach Dale Lennon said the team watched film of ISUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s punt formations during the week and noticed the punter did not have substantial protection. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We felt we could get a potential block coming off the edge,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way it all presented itself, it all worked out just like we had practiced, and the guys did a good job of executing.â&#x20AC;?

SIU defensive linemen Kayon Swanson, left, Blake Miller, center, and Bryan Presume, right, tackle Illinois State University junior running back Cameron Hunt Saturday at Hancock Stadium. Senior outside linebacker Kevin Reed said Coach Dale Lennon gave a good speech in the locker room that fired the team up before the game, which ended in a 17-0 upset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Feels like if coach believes in us, it has to happen â&#x20AC;&#x201D; no point for it not to,â&#x20AC;? Reed said. quarter with a 33-yard field goal. It was his second conversion of the season.

ISU threatened in the third as it got down to the Saluki 25 yard line,

but an interception from freshman D.J. Cameron put the momentum back on SIUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side.

The Salukis scored their only

offensive touchdown of the game in the fourth quarter when sophomore runningback Mikaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;il McCall capped a 91-yard drive with a 1-yard

touchdown run, which gave SIU its 17-0 lead.

After a slow start to the No. 1 singles championship match against Wichita State junior Veronika Blaskova, senior Melanie Delsart kept her composure and went on to win the match 3-6, 6-2, 6-3. She then defeated sophomore Jennie Hartjes of Creighton University 6-0, 6-3 and toppled Drake Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s junior Klavdija Rebol 6-0, 7-6 in the championship round.

The No. 2 doubles championships went to the senior-sophomore duo of Jennifer Dien and Natasha

Tomishima. The two started their run to the championship by beating Drakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team 8-4 and then Illinois Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team 8-5. In the championship match, the two defeated host team Wichita State 8-4.

Dien said the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chemistry helped improve her tournament play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Naty and I played well together; the team played well,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone cheered each other on, and that really went a long way in keeping everyone motivated.â&#x20AC;?

Dien said she has enjoyed every year as a Saluki, but this year has been special. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown so much here over the years,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my last year on the team, and I want to go out
