Three charged in Carbondale strip shooting KAYLI PLOTNER Daily Egyptian Carbondale Police have confirmed three arrests were made in response to the shooting of SIU student Dexter Lee. Darrion Jake of Cape Girardeau, Mo., Ternell Alritton of Carbondale and Robert E. Glass of Carbondale were taken to the Jackson County Jail Friday evening.

Jake is believed to be the shooter. He was charged with aggravated battery with a firearm, aggravated discharge of a firearm and mob action.

Glass and Albritton were each charged with mob action, according to Carbondale Police.

Lee, a senior from Chicago studying electronic system technology, said he was shot in the abdomen and sent to Memorial Hospital of Carbondale to have the bullet removed from his colon. He remains in recovery.

Circus brings entertainment, education and protestors

Lee said he was attempting to break up an altercation, but has learned not to always try to be the hero.

“When I said, ‘We’ve got everything under control,’ I guess he thought I was the guy he had got into it with,” Lee said. “And he ended up shooting the gun.”

The shooting took place around 12:30 a.m.

Friday outside the La Fogata Taqueria restaurant at 519 S. Illinois Ave., prompting several fights in

a large crowd. Around 1:30 a.m. police began to block off traffic in front of Sam’s Cafe. Police said they used pepper spray to break up the group of more than 200 people in the street.

An employee at La Fogata said he thought the weapon was a BB gun, and said Lee was able to walk to the ambulance and did not appear to be critically harmed.

Police on scene refused to comment about the nature of the incident.

Comfort before the catwalk

LUKE NOZICKA Daily Egyptian As the circus traveled through Carbondale, it brought exotic animals, educational opportunities and activist protests alike.

The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus stopped at the university from Friday through Sunday as part of its “Super Circus Heroes” tour.

Animal Trainer Cathy Carden, of Springfield, Mo., said the circus consists of 120 people, three camels, two horses, two Shetland ponies, seven miniature horses, 18 dogs and three elephants, two of which she grew up with.

Carden said she has been performing in the circus business since she was five years old and has worked with Ringling Bros. on and off since 1999.

“I come from a family of circus performers, seven generations of circus performers,” she said. “My mother was a trapeze artist. My dad was a bareback rider and when they decided to retire from the physically taxing performing life, they decided to take out their own little circus. That was my dad’s dream and you can’t have a circus without elephants.”

Carden said her mother acquired the elephants from a breeding compound in Thailand. Carden was raised with elephants Patty and Carol, who are now both 40 years old.

The other elephant, 45-year-old Duchess, grew up with Carden’s husband Brett. Each elephant weighs more than 8,000 pounds. Carden said the elephants are not related and live on her farm in Missouri when they are not traveling.

She said her circus works roughly 45 weeks out of the year in each city for one week, performing anywhere from four to seven shows, which usually run Thursday through Sunday. She said each show is two hours long and the elephants perform for about five minutes per show.

She said she was happy to give students and faculty in the Department of Animal Science a behind-the-scenes look, which took place around 12 p.m. Thursday.

“We just basically talked about the animals,” Carden said. “This one young lady was interested in working with elephants and doing maybe an internship.”

She said some of the things discussed were daily care, such as feeding and cleaning the animals.

“We like to monitor how much they drink. They drink about three or four times a day,” Carden said. “I’ve seen (the elephants) drink 100 gallons of water (a day.)”

Gary Apgar, an associate professor of animal science food and nutrition, said he was glad to see how Ringling Brothers treats their animals.

“It’s neat to hear they actually have a pretty stringent animal welfare and nutritional program that they follow,” Apgar said. “We hear a lot of potentially negative comments about circus shows and it’s really nice to see they’ve got all of their I’s dotted and T’s crossed. It’s reassuring.”

He said people tend to think when animals are moved from one place to the next, they become stressed and lack veterinary treatment.

Miller secures student trustee position LUKE NOZICKA Daily Egyptian After winning 60 percent of the vote against opponent Kane Hudson, a freshman from Peoria studying engineering, Adrian Miller will serve as SIUC’s student trustee on the SIU Board of Trustees beginning June 1 after Jesse Cler’s term expires.

Miller said more than 1,400 students voted

Wednesday and Thursday on Desire2Learn.

Miller, a junior from Carbondale studying political science, said he wants to not only better the Carbondale campus, but also the university as a whole. “(I’m going) to advocate on student issues, whether that be tuition or fees, but also to ensure that the environment — not just here at Carbondale but at Edwardsville and Springfield — is conducive to the academics

and to what you would expect when you attend a university,” he said.

Miller serves as president of the Undergraduate Student Government and has served on the Illinois Board of Higher Education. He said he is prepared for the position, as he has attended every trustee meeting for the past two years.

“She explained everything and all the protocols she goes through on a daily basis, which puts all those concerns at rest,” Apgar said.

Roughly a dozen local protestors expressed some of these concerns outside SIU Arena before several shows throughout the weekend.

Kori Craig, a graduate student in speech language pathology from Manhattan, said she was protesting because she wants people to think about what they are paying for.

“If people question it, I just want them to do their own research and discover that a lot of animal abuse occurs with elephants,” Craig said.

“These animals don’t do it by choice, so we have to think what makes a oneton elephant want to stand on a ball.”

Craig said she protested when Ringling Bros. visited the university in 2012.

Jessica Booth, 33, and Marcus Booth, 51, both of Carbondale, protested alongside their children Gabriel, 8, and Ayla, 6. Jessica said they were protesting because it is morally wrong and not natural to keep animals in cages.

“In my mind, if it’s illegal to keep a

Marcus said there are many ways to entertain children and make money that do not involve exploiting animals.

Jessica said even children, such as her son, can tell elephants have emotions.

“I’ve actually seen a live video of an elephant painting a picture of a baby elephant holding a flower,” Gabriel said. “They have feelings.”

Carden said protestors are just another aspect of the business.

“People fear propaganda that’s out there and basically they just buy into that,” she said. “I think they’re basically misinformed. A lot of the agenda for the activists is to separate all animals from humans in all aspects of life. That’s pretty unrealistic in my opinion.”

Carden said her animals are well taken care of and receive veterinary care, exercise and day-to-day human interaction.

“We’re going to make sure that we represent the student voice, increase the student voice,” Shulak said. “We’re going to make sure that we really do represent the true interest of the student body.”

Shulak said he found out he won while in class by a text from Election Commissioner Kevin Schrader.

Ashani Hamilton, a junior from Brooklyn, N.Y. studying animal science, gets up close with Sheik, one of three camels featured in the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, Thursday at SIU Arena.

Hamilton and his zoology class were given a behind-the-scenes look at how the animals are cared for during the circus’s tour, which performed five shows at the arena during the weekend. Hamilton said it was a great opportunity to ask unique questions about the mix of exotic and domestic animals. “We don’t have many opportunities like this, so this was pretty special,” he said.

He said he is excited for the future of USG. “I’m never satisfied with the status quo,” Shulak said. “I think there’s a lot of things that President Miller and his administration have done well that I’ve worked with them on, but there’s also things where I can see that we can better USG.” Luke Nozicka can be reached at lnozicka@dailyegyptian.com, on Twitter @lukenozicka, or 536-3311 ext. 286

Students protest educational debt LUKE NOZICKA Daily Egyptian Roughly 20 years ago, an SIU student accepted her very first credit card just outside Faner Hall.

Now at age 65, Rene Cook, of Carbondale, said she is still in debt after graduating in 1996 because of that longtime-regretted credit card, along with her ever-dwelling student loans.

“I don’t know what I could’ve done any differently,” she said. “I’ve only used my credit cards to maintain (my debts), not to buy anything.”

Cook graduated with a degree in university studies and said it did not help her get a job after school. She said attending college is no longer worth the debt that follows.

“I think we should go to a system like other countries have where they value young people as a resource,” Cook said. “We have this all back-asswards.”

According to the Federal Reserve Board of New York, 37 million student loan borrowers have outstanding student loans.

Nearly 35 students and community members assembled at 2 p.m.

Thursday on the north side of the Student Center to discuss these issues, and the anxiety debt creates.

Strike Debt Carbondale, Graduate Assistants United and SIU Socialists assembled the protest and held a banner that read, “Alone: they own

you. Together: we own them.” It is the first debt assembly put on by these groups.

Adam Turl, president of SIU Socialists, said the purpose of the protest was to show student debt is a structural problem and is not a difficulty someone in debt should be ashamed of.

“Student debt loans now in the United States is upward around $29,000 in some parts of the country per student,” Turl said. “It’s even higher for graduate students.”

According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in 2012, Americans owe more than $1 trillion in student loans.

Nick Smaligo, a graduate student in philosophy from Carbondale, said most people take the first job they can get after school, even if it is something they don’t enjoy, in order to pay off their debt.

“You spend the next 20 or 30 years of your life paying back the banks that you took out loans for in order to qualify for a job,” he said. “So you basically borrow in order to work in order to pay back what you borrowed in order to work.”

Turl said another issue students face is the continual debt put on students’ families for attending school.

Students spring into fashion at University Mall BRITTANY PETTIFORD Daily Egyptian More than 150 white chairs surrounded a catwalk lined with flowers. Live piano music lured in curious spectators alongside anticipated guests, eager to see the latest fashion modeled by SIU students and mall shoppers of all ages.

University Mall sponsored its firstever Easter Parade Spring Fashion Show Saturday, an event that took five weeks of planning. Debbie Tindall, general manager of University Mall, said she played a major role in the production of the show.

“I’ve worked with the store managers in the different department stores and they then worked with their employees who recruited,” she said. “I’ve also been recently introduced to Dr. (Seung-Hee) Lee who brought on board some students.”

Tindall said Master of Ceremonies Cory Henkelmen, a senior from Danville studying political science and an employee at the mall, introduced her to Lee, the program director of the Department of Fashion Design and Merchandising.

Lee recruited several students from the department to help in various capacities, Tindall said. Xzavia Gasque, a senior from Augusta, Ga., studying fashion design merchandising, was one of the recruited students who helped behind the scenes as a model coordinator.

“We’re doing check in, helping with the food backstage and I’ll be helping along the stage because there will also be children, “ Gasque said. “I’ve been super excited and it’s been fun so far working with Debbie for this fashion show.”

As the models took to the runway, Gasque was offstage to ensure they were in the correct order.

Fashion design merchandising students include Lauren Cook, a senior from Carmi, and Marcella Smith, a senior from Oswego, worked as model coordinators. Kyla Williams, a junior from Chicago, and Brennan McMillen, a junior from Robinson, coordinated as well as modeled clothes from Old Navy.

“Dr. Lee stopped me after class and asked if I wanted to volunteer, and I’m glad I did, ” she said. “As far as fashion shows go, I’m very interested in planning them and running them.”

Clothing from The Buckle was the crowd favorite. Many chattered about the accessories, and smiled at the various styles the models wore. Ashley Wells, a junior from Oak Lawn studying psychology, modeled for the store.

“I came into the store one day and was asked to participate in the show,”

Cochran said the girls asked to use her phone to look at videos of models so they could practice once more before hitting the runway.

Wells said. “Basically, we came into the store and everybody had a general theme.

They would give us clothes and then we would dress them up or dress them down however we like.”

Tindall said there were 15 department stores included in the production of the show. Many of the models were employees of the stores, shoppers who were recruited by employees and students from Lee’s department.

After the show, Henkelman said he was incredibly grateful for the help from the students.

“I don’t know what we would have done without them,” Henkelmen said.

“They were so instrumental in this fashion show. They helped out with the modeling and the coordinating, doing things we would not have known to do.

We literally could not have been able to function without them.”

Tindall said she believes the production of the Easter show is a stepping-stone for more shows between the mall and university students.

“I’ve already started talking to Dr. Lee about doing another show,” she said. “We’re going to collaborate with the department of fashion design and merchandising for a back-to-school fashion show.”

‘Draft Day’ as indecisive as Reitman KARSTEN BURGSTAHLER Daily Egyptian In football, being a bandwagon fan is a cardinal sin.

Jumping from one team to another because of their record is considered wishy-washy.

Director Ivan Reitman coaches “Draft Day” in a manner as wishy-washy as a Jets fan suddenly rooting for Seattle. It helps a little that the film’s screenplay hits some unexpected notes in the third act, but by no means does the film throw a successful Hail Mary with the timer ticking down.

This problem becomes evident in one scene when Cleveland Browns General Manager Sonny Weaver Jr. (Kevin Costner) runs through a list of famous quarterbacks breaking down their little flaws. He talks about John Elway and Peyton Manning, so it’s clear the movie is rooted in reality.

But later on the film deviates by naming non-existent quarterbacks, giving the Broncos and the Seahawks players with forgettable names.

This may seem like a minor complaint, especially for moviegoers who don’t care about the National Football League and just want Costner to make a good movie again. But this film’s citizenship in two different versions of America is a symptom of the overall lack of care the writers put into the film.

The plot is fairly simple: After giving up three first-round picks to the Seahawks for the overall first pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Weaver is given the opportunity to draft Bo Callahan (Josh Pence), an all-star Wisconsin quarterback who seems to be invincible beyond his occasional playboy indiscretion — or, he’s Johnny Manziel but the writers couldn’t use Manziel’s name. In the last 12 hours before the draft begins, Weaver investigates several other players and devises a plan to come out of the draft looking strong.

We don’t go on a journey so much as we get an inside look at an industry.

The film strays away from feeling as documentarian as did 2011’s “Moneyball” did on occasion, but that’s not necessarily a compliment. This plot isn’t nearly as compelling. “Moneyball” was an incredible but true story taken from a rather routine baseball

process. In contrast, “Draft Day” is a fictional tale that embellishes an annual event the writers treat like Christmas for football fans.

Because Reitman and his crack team realize they must expand the appeal beyond NFL fans to make this movie a success, they inject some personal drama into the film. Weaver is canoodling with another executive named Ali (Jennifer Garner) and just lost his father, a former Browns coach Weaver actually fired, one week prior. Much is made of how fans don’t want Weaver to tarnish his father’s legacy, but he clearly didn’t have the best relationship with Pops.

Then we get the drama from the three players Weaver is considering. Pence plays Bo with a smarminess reminiscent of that jock you hated in high school, and the problem the writers ascribe to him in a third-act twist goes underdeveloped. The more interesting story belongs to Vontae Mack (Chadwick Boseman), who managed to sack Bo four times that season and is quite upset when he hears Weaver is considering Bo. Finally there’s Ray Jennings (Arian Foster), the son of a Browns legend who just wants to play for his dad’s team. He’s relegated to the sidelines for much of the film until the finale, when he provides a real emotional crux. Spoilers aside, it’s that classic sports movie scene that’ll cause guys to well up while claiming they’ve “just got something in their eyes.”

Had Weaver’s relationship with his father been as interesting as were any of these subplots, it would’ve been worth exploring. Costner is a fine actor and it’s clear the producers felt his film resume of workingman’s roles would connect with the audience, but even he can’t stop it from feeling like drama for drama’s sake, especially when the whole story fails to yield a emotional resolution. The audience learns why Weaver fired his father, but that’s it. It’s a lot of build up to a lot of nothing.

For his part, Reitman films as if he’s capturing true emotions from the players. The scenes shot at the actual 2013 NFL Draft, the first things filmed, don’t feel like a movie — at that point “Draft Day” feels a bit like an engrossing documentary.

The rest of the film is shot like a comic book, with thin white lines separating two different scenes sharing the screen and characters occasionally drifting between the scenes. This technique has no real purpose in the film and only serves as a distraction, almost like a way to

PROVIDED PHOTO

edit the movie quickly for younger moviegoers without cutting long takes.

It’s a shame the filmmakers chose to take inherently dramatic material and overlay it with boardroom drama that doesn’t work nearly as well as they thought it would. Frontoffice dramas can work. But the awkward mix of reality and fiction — both in the NFL

scenes and in the film’s crucial conflicts — keeps “Draft Day” an extra point rather than a touchdown.

Student’s clarinet recital closes out studies JAKE SAUNDERS Daily Egyptian For John McCowen, C’s don’t get degrees. A’s through G’s do.

McCowen, a senior from Herrin studying music composition, chose to pursue the clarinet and is on the home stretch of his studies.

McCowen presented what he has learned during a clarinet recital Saturday as one of the final steps in receiving his Bachelor of Musical Arts degree. McCowen’s musical journey has been both humbling and enlightening, he said.

McCowen said he didn’t start playing the clarinet until he was about 23 — before settling on the clarinet he cycled through several musical genres and instruments.

“I’ve done a very strange path coming from a DIY hardcore and

punk music to classical music,” McCowen said. “In my life though, it’s been very natural.”

Before coming to SIU to study music, McCowen made a living as a touring musician. He spent great lengths of time on the road playing saxophone in a rock band, he said.

“I got to a point where, getting in the van and going to a bar and playing. Doing that night after night, I wondered, ‘Isn’t there more to music than this?’” McCowen said.

McCowen decided to transition to a music school. He chose his instrument after meeting Eric Mandat, clarinet professor and distinguished scholar.

“John has been the ideal student and musician in every way,” Mandat said.

Mandat said McCowen dug into not only the study of music but also

the overall organization of sound.

“He is so hungry to learn about everything, all aspects of music, not just the narrow area of clarinet or of modern Western composition,” Mandat said. “It’s pretty impressive.”

McCowen’s recital focused on several aspects of composition, namely solo and group work. Both works were enlivened through a technique known as multiphonics.

Mandat has spent years experimenting with the technique, which involves controlling air through the instrument in such a way that sound can be frozen between one note and another note in an overtone series. This produces multiple notes at the same time, something McCowen has worked with at great length, Mandat said.

“Recently we’ve been working on some projects to find ways to

use these multiphonics that require a really high degree of control and refinement,” Mandat said.

Musicians must gain strength and flexibility in traditional clarinet playing to work with multiphonics, he said.

“John’s compositions use extended performance techniques like multiphonics a lot,” Mandat said. “He’s found extremely compelling ways to organize the music and control the sounds. It’s really incredible.”

To McCowen, composing is far more than a performance for an evening — music remains alive after the performance and must be continuously nurtured, he said.

“When majoring on an instrument, you just live it,” McCowen said. “Music is the healing force of the universe, and I’m in a field in which I can penetrate the

human race by just writing (music).”

McCowen said he presented the recital to explore new and innovative sounds the clarinet can produce. The recital moved from a classical orientation to a more modern approach crafted through McCowen’s dedication.

Matt McGuire, one of McCowen’s friends and previous musical collaborators, was in attendance to observe McCowen’s solo and group efforts, and was impressed with what he heard.

“That was inspiring,” McGuire said. “I’ve never heard him do anything like it before and it was an affirmation of a lot of hard work.”

Dawgs split two matches at home TONY MCDANIEL Daily Egyptian

SARAH SCHNEIDER · DAILY EGYPTIAN

Junior Jorge Cavero celebrates a point during his win against Wichita State’s Tin Ostojic Friday at University Courts. SIU lost to Wichita State Friday 5-2 and swept Western Illinois 7-0 Saturday. The men’s tennis team will play Illinois State University at 1 p.m. Saturday at University Courts.

The Saluki men’s tennis team competed in two of three matches in its final home stand of the season with a tough loss followed by a dominating win.

SIU (9-10) returned home to University Courts after a five-match road trip where the Salukis were only able to salvage one win. On Friday, the Salukis welcomed Missouri Valley Conference opponent Wichita State University.

They fought hard in their match against the 73rd-ranked Shockers, but fell 5-2.

In doubles, the Salukis’ No. 1 pair, sophomore Jonny Rigby and freshman Michal Kianicka, defeated WSU’s top duo, sophomore Tin Ostojic and junior Tomislav Gregurovic, 8-4. The Salukis did not follow up Rigby and Kianicka’s victory with a win at two or three doubles, which surrendered the point to Wichita.

The Salukis had their chances to score points during singles, but could not keep up.

“They fought hard to the last point,” coach Dann Nelson said. “We have a couple of guys not feeling 100 percent, but at this time of year no one is 100 percent. So you’ve got to bring it every time, and our guys did. We just came up a little short today.”

Saturday, the Salukis bounced back with a 7-0 win over the Leathernecks of Western Illinois University.

SIU set the tone during doubles play with

wins in all three matches.

The Dawgs dominated singles and won all six matches in straight sets. Cavero stepped in for Rigby at No. 1 singles to allow Rigby to rest. Cavero defeated sophomore Christoph Haertel 6-0, 6-1.

Cavero has now won 12 of his last 13 singles matches, and said he didn’t approach his first try at the No. 1 spot any differently than he would another match.

“Yeah I was playing No. 1, but I didn’t feel any pressure at all,” Cavero said. “I just stepped on the court, played my strategy and did everything I should. Things went my way.”

At No. 2 singles, Kianicka won his secondstraight match with a 6-2, 6-4 victory over sophomore Mitch Granger.

Kianicka’s two wins came after three-straight losses. He said he was pleased to be back on a winning streak this late in the season.

“I wanted in the beginning of the season to have my best matches in conference,” Kianicka said. “Thank God I’m doing well so far in conference and I hope it will go on a little while.”

Junior Szymon Opieczonek won his match 6-0, 6-0 and senior Rafael Cuadrillero defeated junior Brandon Meeker 6-1, 6-2. Freshmen Jeremy Dixon and Filip Aleksic grabbed the last two points for the Salukis.

The Salukis will play their final home match of the regular season at 1 p.m. Saturday against Illinois State University.

Saluki bats struggle against ISU Sycamores TONY MCDANIEL Daily Egyptian Despite four extra innings and a win Friday, SIU couldn’t catch up to the pitching of the Sycamores and lost the final two games of the series.

The Salukis (18-17) failed to get their bats going with runners in scoring position against Indiana State University (23-10) and have dropped five of their last seven games.

Friday night, the Dawgs and Sycamores sent their best pitchers to the mound in what would turn out to be a duel between the two starters.

Junior Sam Coonrod shined under the lights of Itchy Jones Stadium.

Coonrod threw eight scoreless innings with nine strikeouts and just three hits before being pulled from the game for freshman Kyle Pauly.

Unfortunately for SIU, Coonrod’s performance was overshadowed by the opposing pitcher’s.

Sycamore junior David Stagg carried a no-hitter through nine innings with eight strikeouts and just three walks before

leaving the game in the 10th inning.

The Salukis would need extra innings for the eighth time this season to score their first runs of the game, and they had to come from behind to win.

In the top of the 13th inning, the Sycamores broke the stalemate when junior Derek Hannahs grounded out to third base with the bases loaded to score sophomore Jeff Zahn and give ISU the potential winning run.

The Salukis didn’t roll over, though.

In the bottom of the frame, with SIU trailing 1-0, senior Jake Welch hit a single to centerfield to score the runner from second base to tie the game at one. On the next at-bat, senior Ryan Rosthenhausler hit a single to right field to score senior Donny Duschinsky from second for the walk-off win.

After the game, coach Ken Henderson said the game was unbelievably frustrating.

“I don’t know how in the hell we won it, but we did,” he said.

In Saturday’s game, the Dawgs went into the ninth inning with a 4-3 lead and their closer, senior Tyler Dray, on the mound.

pretty slow pace,” Eaton said. “From the second inning on I felt like I had a better pace and got after guys a little bit better.
