Ex-ticket office leader gets 46 months for scam By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

WICHITA — The former leader of fundraising for Kansas University athletics was sentenced Thursday morning to nearly four years in prison for taking part in a $2 million ticket scheme that illegally delivered thou-

sands of tickets for KU basketball and football games to brokers and others. Rodney Jones, who had led the ticket office for Kansas Athletics Inc. before becoming assistant athletics director for the Williams Fund, was sentenced to 46 months in federal prison. He had pleaded guilty in

December to conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Jones also must pay all or part of nearly $1.2 million in restitution to Kansas Athletics, and alone is responsible for paying nearly $114,000 to the Internal Revenue Service to cover unpaid federal taxes, U.S. District Judge Wesley Brown ruled.

In court, Jones said he wanted to “deeply apologize” to federal authorities, Kansas Athletics, all Jayhawk fans, as well as his family, friends — and, especially, to his son, Parker. “I have made a terrible mistake that I will continue to pay for for the rest of my life,” Jones said.

A colder and rainier day than expected didn’t dampen the spirits of volunteers from Kansas University who spent it helping out members of the Lawrence community. It was KU’s first attempt at “The Big Event,” something that organizers hope becomes an annual tradition. Thursday, about 100 groups composed of about 500 people were out doing all kinds of odd jobs throughout the city. The help was offered to all residents, regardless of need, which did create some initial confusion. “Is this one of those subversive things?” asked Lawrence resident Steve Braswell. “Am I going to have to pay it forward or something?” Nope, said the students who gathered at his house in the 400 block of Michigan Street. The volunteers intended the gesture as a thank you to the community. So they raked, washed windows and made themselves generally available for a couple of hours. “I thought it was really cool,” said Kendall Simmons, as students were untangling a vine from her favorite bush. “Learning to do this kind of stuff when you’re young is really remarkable. If you learn it while you’re young, when you get older it’s still in your head.” Participating students said they enjoyed the break from the routine. “It’s a much different thing than we do every day,” said Aaron Dollinger, a senior from Leawood who was working in a group composed of Student Senate leaders. “This is something entirely different and a nice change of pace.” The tradition began at Texas A&M University, said Michael Wade Smith, KU’s student body president, where it has been going on for nearly two decades. There, about 10,000 to 15,000 students participate, and students get the day off from class. “We can grow to that,” Smith said. He said the event’s organizers, KU students Hannah Bolton and Kris Velasco, did an outstanding job, and he hoped the event would be back again next year. Already, momentum was building. KU administrators allowed faculty and staff to take up to four hours of paid work time to volunteer on the day, Smith said, and were supportive of the project in other ways, too. Volunteers capped off the event

TOPEKA — With only Republican support, the Kansas House on Thursday approved a budget that would roll back base state aid to schools to pre-2000 levels. The 69-52 vote sets up negotiations with the Senate, which passed its budget plan earlier in the week. Republican supporters argued the House bill was an appropriate plan in tough economic times, while Democrats said the hits on social services, education and corrections were too much. Both measures are in the $14 billion range, with the House plan leaving a larger LEGISLATURE cash reserve. Originally the House plan would have cut the pay of state employees making $40,000 or more on a sliding scale that topped out at 7.5 percent for those making $100,000 or more. It would have also included legislators and other state officials. But a late amendment by state Rep. Mario Goico, R-Wichita, removed that pay cut and instead would require a 1.193 percent across-the-board cut to state agencies, including higher education. The across-the-board cut exempted public schools, human service caseloads and pension funding. The Senate plan doesn’t cut rank-and-file state employees either but has a 7.5 percent cut to legislators’ pay and 2.5 percent cut to judges, statewide elected officials and statutory agency chiefs. The Senate plan also includes funds to raise the pay of state workers who are significantly underpaid, while the House plan doesn’t. The 1.193 percent across-theboard reduction means an $8.8 million cut to higher education, including reductions of $1.6 million at Kansas University and $1.25 million to the KU Medical Center. On public schools, the Republican-led House, Senate and Gov. Sam Brownback are proposing levels of base state aid to schools that go back a decade. The House bill would cut base state aid to $3,762 per student. The Senate has approved a plan to cut it to $3,786, and Brownback’s budget had a drop to $3,780. Whichever of these gains final approval, the Lawrence school district is looking at a cut of approximately $3 million. Earlier Thursday, a group of House Republicans pushed for deeper budget cuts. An amendment by state Rep. Kasha Kelley, R-Arkansas City, would have sliced $100 million, which included a $56 million cut to higher education. But the move failed, 44-77. The proposal would have cut from “administrative expenses,” excluding public safety, the judiciary and kindergarten through

U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan ruled in a lawsuit filed in October 2007 by the Sierra Club against the federal Rural Utilities Service. The lawsuit alleged that the RUS is required by federal law to do an environmental study of the project and have public hearings before allowing Sunflower Electric Power Corp., based in Hays, to build additional coal-fired generating capacity. Sullivan said in a three-page order filed Tuesday that he decided in favor of the Sierra Club, but most of his decision remains under seal to protect the utility’s confidential financial information.

already have pleaded guilty to their roles in the scheme, which prosecutors say lasted for f ive years before all resigned in the wake of a scandal that a KU investigation said cost the department more than $3 million. Jones and his fellow conspirators took tickets — more than 17,000 for men’s basketball, and more than 2,000 for football, according to the KU investigation — that otherwise would have been available for members of the Williams Fund and others. The tickets then were sold through brokers and provided to others for the conspirators’ personal gain. The KU report concluded that Jones was a “selfish person who mistreated employees who were not in his favor,” and was someone who provided free tickets to friends, softball teammates and others. Among the beneficiaries was a landlord who had agreed to accept reduced rent payments in exchange for expected priority points in the Williams Fund. “I have let many individuals down,” Jones told Brown.

‘I accept full responsibility’ Like Liebsch, Jones had faced a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. But federal sentencing guidelines suggested that Jones should get between 46 and 57 months in prison. Prosecutors had sought a sentence at the low end of the guidelines, while Jones and his attorney had urged a sentence of probation, community service, house arrest or placement in a halfway house. In court documents, Jones maintained that he should receive consideration for probation because of his cooperation with prosecutors and investigators, including special agents from the FBI and IRS, and with the Kansas Board of Ethics.

Bloch plans to appeal month-long sentence Coal By Nedra Pickler Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON — The lawyer once tasked with protecting government whistle-blowers was ordered incarcerated for one month in a much-delayed and contentious sentencing Wednesday that now faces the further delay of an appeal. Former U.S. Special Counsel Scott Bloch pleaded guilty 11 months ago to a misdemeanor for withholding information from a congressional investigation into his office, to which he was appointed by President George Bloch W. Bush. His sentencing was scheduled nine times but repeatedly delayed in a dispute that was uncommon not only for its substance and duration but because it paired the usual courtroom rivals — the prosecutor and defendant — against the judge. Bloch is a Kansas University graduate who spent more than a decade at the Lawrence firm Stevens & Brand. Bloch attorney William Sullivan and prosecutor Glenn Leon tried one last time on Wednesday to persuade U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson that Bloch should be eligible for probation and sentenced only to probation because Bloch and the Justice Department had reached a plea agreement with that understanding. Sullivan pointed out that others who had pleaded guilty to the charge got probation, including baseball star Miguel Tejada two years ago. Robinson has maintained

that the law requires a minimum of one month behind bars and denied Bloch’s request to withdraw his plea. Sullivan asked if she would let Bloch serve the sentence on home confinement with release to work, but she questioned what gave her the authority to allow that and invited him to file written arguments. Sullivan also said he would immediately file a motion asking her to keep Bloch from serving the time until the Court of Appeals can weigh in. Robinson said she would consider that request. Bush appointed Bloch to head the federal agency responsible for protecting the rights of federal workers and ensuring that government whistle-blowers are not subjected to reprisals. But Bloch was accused of retaliating against his own employees and closing whistle-blower cases without investigating them. While he was under investigation for those allegations, Bloch had his government computer and those of two of his staffers wiped clean of information in December 2006 by a private computer repair company, Geeks on Call. The House Reform Committee questioned Bloch about the computer scrub in March 2008, and he told them it was to address a problem that caused his computer to crash. Bloch admitted as part of his guilty plea that he withheld information from the congressional staff and that before he ordered the wipe of the computers he understood the procedure would make it virtually impossible to recover deleted files or e-mails.

Missing teen found in Bonner Springs An 18-year-old Linwood woman who was the subject of a search Wednesday night in Leavenworth County that included a helicopter was found unharmed Thursday morning in Bonner Springs, sheriff’s officials said. Leavenworth County Undersheriff Ron Cranor said officers used a Kansas Highway Patrol

helicopter to search in and near Linwood. He said officers were trying to find the woman, who was believed to be on foot in the area, because of a medical condition she had. Officers found her Thursday. One Linwood resident reported a helicopter was in the area with a spotlight for more than two hours Wednesday night.

also wanted to begin paying restitution sooner and fulfill his parental duties. Brown acknowledged the contentions but sided with prosecutors, who said Jones’ “extensive and protracted” criminal conduct had brought him “vast wealth” that had allowed him to maintain an apartment on the Plaza In Kansas City, Mo., “frittering away his money on an extensive rolling party scene that persevered for five years.” The restitution total is based largely on Jones’ financial disclosures, which investigators had used polygraph testing to assess. “I accept full responsibility for my actions,” Jones told Brown, and later indicated that he fully intends to pay back the money owed to Kansas Athletics and the IRS. Brown ruled that at least 10 percent of any money deposited in Jones’ prison trust fund must go toward restitution. Then, after Jones is released from prison, at least 5 percent of his gross monthly income must go toward restitution during his three years of supervised release. Among justifications for the sentence: “The defendant engaged in a conspiracy to defraud, and it went on for an extended period of time and caused extensive damage,” Brown said.

Restitution Jones and four former colleagues — Liebsch, Ben Kirtland and Charlette and Thomas Blubaugh — also share responsibility for a $2 million monetary judgment, which allows the federal government to pursue their finances and other assets that may have been amassed as a result of the criminal conspiracy. All have pleaded guilty to conspiracy, and the Blubaughs will be sentenced April 14, while Kirtland’s sentencing is set May 12. Two other former coworkers — Jason Jeffries and Brandon Simmons — earlier had pleaded guilty to failing to report the crime to authorities. Brown placed them on probation. Richard Hathaway, an

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD assistant U.S. attorney who is prosecuting the cases, explained after Thursday’s hearing that restitution is ordered to help make victims “whole,” while forfeiture allows the government to prevent criminals from keeping any ill-gotten gains. Brown ordered that Kansas Athletics Inc. is due a total of $1,197,084 in restitution, a total due jointly from all the conspirators in the wire fraud: Jones and Liebsch, who have been sentenced; and the Blubaughs and Kirtland, who still await sentencing. And Jones alone owes $113,843 in back taxes to the IRS, while Liebsch owes $79,864. Kansas Athletics also may seek reimbursement through any assets that may be forfeited — Liebsch already has voluntarily given up a 2008 Toyota Camry that she’d purchased with cash proceeds from the scam, for example — but KU would not be able to receive a combination of restitution and forfeited assets that totaled more than $2 million. But victims and the government rarely get all the money owed to them, Hathaway said. “As a practical matter, by the time the case is closed, the money has been spent on attorneys’ fees and it has been frittered away,” Hathaway said. “But we always remain hopeful.” KU officials aren’t saying yet whether they plan to seek reimbursement through forfeiture proceedings, preferring to wait until all of the conspirators have been sentenced. “From when we f irst learned of these crimes, the KU community has been seeking justice,” said Jack Martin, a spokesman for KU Chancellor Bernadette GrayLittle. “Through these sentences, that justice is in the process of being delivered. We would like to thank the federal investigators and prosecutors for their diligent work in this case.” — Schools reporter Mark Fagan can be reached at 832-7188.

about 400,000 Kansans and plans to build a plant with a capacity of 895 megawatts, enough to meet the peak demands of 448,000 households, according to one state estimate. Three-quarters of the new capacity, or 695 megawatts, would be reserved for a Sunflower partner, Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association Inc., of Westminster, Colo. That’s a sore point for many critics of Sunflower’s push to add coal-fired generating capacity, but the utility’s supporters say exporting electricity is as benef icial as exporting beef, wheat and other agricultural commodities. The lawsuit in Washington is among several challenges by the Sierra Club aimed at slowing down or stopping Sunflower’s $2.8 billion project. In a case before the Kansas Supreme Court, the group is trying to overturn an air-quality permit issued for the project by the state Department of Health and Environment in December, arguing that it’s too lax in regulating potential pollutants. Last month, the group demanded aggressive action by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, telling its regional administrator in Kansas City, Mo., in writing that he’s legally obligated to object to the state permit. The regional EPA office has said parts of the permit aren’t stringent enough and has asked for a “dialogue” with state officials.

NRC ‘concerned’ about Kan. nuke plant

1 | WISCONSIN

Gov. halts plans to implement union law A Wisconsin judge on Thursday did what thousands of pro-union protesters and boycotting Democratic lawmakers couldn’t, forcing Republican Gov. Scott Walker to halt plans to implement a law that would strip most public workers of their collective bargaining rights and cut their pay. Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi, who had issued an order intended to block implementation of the law while she considered a challenge to its legitimacy and warned of sanctions for noncompliance, amended her order Thursday to clarify that the law had not taken effect, as Republican leaders argued it had. The governor’s top aide, Department of Administration Secretary Mike Huebsch, later issued a statement saying Walker would comply with Sumi’s order and halt preparations that were under way to begin deducting money from most public workers’ paychecks, but that the governor’s administration still believes the law took effect after a state office unexpectedly published online. 2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

Commission says 3 facilities, including Wolf Creek, need more safety oversight By Matthew Daly Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Three U.S. nuclear power plants need increased oversight from federal regulators because of safety problems or unplanned shutdowns, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said Thursday, although officials said all are operating safely. NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko said the three plants — in South Carolina, Kansas and

Nebraska — “are the plants we are most concerned about” among the 65 U.S. nuclear power plants in 31 states. Jaczko did not identify the plants, but an agency spokesman said they are the H.B. Robinson nuclear plant in South Carolina, Fort Calhoun in Nebraska and Wolf Creek in Kansas. An NRC spokesman said three reactors at the Oconee Nuclear Station in South Carolina had been on the watch list, but were removed two weeks

ago after improved performance reviews. The NRC stressed that all 104 U.S. nuclear reactors operate safely, and that the heightened review of the three plants was routine. “The NRC felt the three required significant additional oversight but continue to operate safely,” said Scott Burnell, an agency spokesman. All U.S. nuclear plants are inspected frequently. If enough minor problems or issues are

‘The hardest working person I’ve ever seen’

Women’s lung cancer death rate declines For the first time, women’s death rates from lung cancer are dropping, possibly a turning point in the smoking-fueled epidemic. It’s a small decline, says the nation’s annual report on cancer — just under 1 percent a year. And lung cancer remains the nation’s, and the world’s, leading cancer killer. But the long-anticipated drop — coming more than a decade after a similar decline began in U.S. men — is a hopeful sign. “It looks like we’ve turned the corner,” said Elizabeth Ward of the American Cancer Society, who coauthored Thursday’s report. “We think this downward trend is real, and we think it will continue.” Overall, death rates from cancer have been inching down for years, thanks mostly to gains against some leading types — colorectal, breast, prostate and, in men, lung cancer. Preventing cancer is better than treating it, and the country has documented smaller but real declines in new cases as well.

Schmidt said when she goes to the store with her mother, people will often stop them to say hi. One time, it even happened when they were at a hospital for a checkup. “She knows more people than me,” Schmidt said. Donner said there is a large group of regulars who drink coffee there every morning. “I don’t know how they’re going to react not having Teresa here,” Donner said. “She’s great with the customers.” She’s also great with her job.

Never underestimate Kansas State University. It’s a theory held by many Kansas University sports fans and one the rest of Lawrence might want to heed as the Take Charge Challenge heads into its third month. From doing an energy audit on the president’s residence to developing a marketing campaign that features a female superhero and Willie the Wildcat, K-State has mapped out a serious game plan to win. Since January, Lawrence and Manhattan have been competing to see who can save the most energy. The contest looks at which town is switching light bulbs to compact fluorescent ones, making the most energyefficiency upgrades to homes and attending the most Take Charge Challenge events. The winner of the challenge, which will last another six months, receives $100,000 to use toward a renewable energy product. A scouting report of sorts was done Thursday at K-State’s Sustainability Conference, where the university’s Director of Sustainability Ben Champion spoke about the hard work being put into the challenge. Along with the chance to split the $100,000 prize with the city of Manhattan, it was an opportunity to make lasting improvements to the school in terms of energy education and awareness, Champion said. “I think for K-State, the Take Charge Challenge is just the beginning,” Champion said. Along with Champion, a host of other university leaders are on Manhattan’s Take Charge Challenge leadership team, including K-State’s first lady Noel Schulz and the university’s communications and marketing manager.

TERESA BALAWEN, A FAMILIAR FACE AT THE MCDONALD’S RESTAURANT at Sixth and Michigan streets, will retire today after working at the location for more than 20 years. Balawen’s co-workers laud her work ethic and she is popular with the customers, who often recognize her outside of the restaurant.

A highly venomous Egyptian cobra that went missing at the Bronx Zoo was found Thursday after nearly a week on the lam in the reptile house, zoo officials said. The approximately 24-inch snake was found coiled in a dark corner of the reptile house, about 200 feet from where it had escaped from a holding cage outside the exhibit into a space described by officials as a labyrinth of pipes and equipment. The reptile house, a foreboding building with vines crawling up its sides and stone heads of alligators and frogs jutting from the sides of its roof, had closed last Friday after the snake disappeared and zoo workers couldn’t find it. The snake quickly became the stuff of urban legend. Someone even started pretending to be the cobra on Twitter and sent fake updates to legions of followers about its supposed escapades on the streets of New York City. 4 | CALIFORNIA

Nixon library offers candid new take For years, Richard Nixon’s presidential library was accused of committing another Watergate cover-up. But now, archivists say, the stonewalling is over. The library opened an expanded new exhibit Thursday that scholars say provides a more balanced and accurate account of the scandal that brought down a president. “The public deserves nonpartisan, objective presidential libraries,” said library director Tim Naftali, who alluded to the original display as “inaccurate and whitewashed.” Among other things, the old exhibit portrayed Nixon’s epic downfall as a “coup” by his enemies and suggested the press behaved unethically in pursuing him. The $500,000 makeover was undertaken by the National Archives after it took control of the library in 2007 from the private organization of Nixon loyalists that had overseen the site since its opening in 1990. The new display features sections called “Abuse of Power,” ‘’The Cover-Up” and “Dirty Tricks,” complemented by taped interviews and text.

FDA to study food dyes, hyperactivity

A Food and Drug Administration advisory panel recommended Thursday that the agency further study the link between food coloring and childhood hyperactivity but said products that contain the dyes do not need package warnings. The committee, made up of doctors, scientists and consumer representatives, narrowly voted 8-6 that food packages don’t need warnings flagging food colorings that could affect attention deficit disorder in children. Packages now must list the food colorings, but there is no warning about a possible link to hyperactivity. The panel agreed with the FDA and affirmed that there is not enough evidence to show that certain food dyes cause hyperactivity in the general population of children. They also agreed that diets eliminating food dyes appear to work for some children with behavior problems.

Teresa Balawen may be only 4-foot-9 with tiny feet, but when she retires from McDonald’s today, she’s leaving big shoes to fill. Balawen, 78, has been a familiar face in the lobby of McDonald’s, 1309 W. Sixth St., for decades. Now, after more than 20 years working in the kitchen and keeping the lobby spick-and-span, she’s retiring to spend time at home with her husband. The restaurant will host a retirement party for her this afternoon. “I will miss many people here,” she said. Balawen came to the United States in the early 1990s from the Philippines. Her daughter, Norma Schmidt, had moved to Lawrence and brought her mother here. Soon after arriving, she start-

That sentiment changed quickly, though, and people started to recognize Balawen. In the last decade, she moved full-time to cleaning the lobby, which store manager Janet Donner said was always spotless. “We don’t ever worry about the lobby,” Donner said. “You know it’s taken care of.” Balawen’s work ethic and dependability was recog-

STATEHOUSE NEWS Bill would end Kan-Ed TOPEKA — A House committee on Wednesday recommended approval of legislation to eliminate a state-run broadband network used by hundreds of schools, hospitals and libraries. The measure by the House General Government Budget Committee would pull the plug on the Kan-Ed program July 1, 2012. The House budget committee has already approved a bill that would remove the $10 million in funding for Kan-Ed and put it in the state's general purpose fund. In Douglas County, school districts, libraries, Kansas University and Baker University have received $530,000 from Kan-Ed. General government panel members said they supported the services that Kan-Ed provided but said funding must come from another source. Kan-Ed, established in 2001, is funded through a monthly 25-cent-per-line charge on telephone service.

nent and use those revenues to reduce Kansas income tax rates. Sen. Pat Apple, R-Louisburg, vice chair of the Senate Assessment and Taxation Committee, said Kansas is competing with Oklahoma, which has been reducing its income tax rates, and Texas, which has no income tax. The 6.3-cents-per-dollar state sales tax, which took effect July 1, is scheduled to decrease to 5.7 cents per dollar July 1, 2013. The House has approved a plan to reduce corporate and individual state income tax rates for any fiscal year where tax revenues rise above last year’s total. Supporters of the bill, which include the Kansas Chamber of Commerce and Kansas chapter of Americans for Prosperity, say reductions in income tax rates will attract businesses to the state. Opponents say the measure is irresponsible as the state already faces a $500 million revenue shortfall that has led to cuts in schools and social services. Senate President Steve Morris, R-Hugoton, essentially prevented the House bill from going to a House-Senate conference committee. — Scott Rothschild

ON THE RECORD

LJWORLD.COM/BLOTTER

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • A manager at Enterprise Rent-A-Car, 2233 W. 29th Terrace, reported to Lawrence police Monday that someone stole a 2011 white Ford cargo van, valued at $16,477, from the business. The theft occurred between March 5 and Monday. • A 36-year-old Lawrence man was arrested Thursday evening after being involved in two separate accidents near the downtown area. Lawrence Police Sgt.

The suspect's vehicle struck another near the intersection and continued westbound, rolling up over the curb. The suspect's vehicle had a broken axle and lost one wheel but continued rolling along, striking another vehicle near Sixth and Vermont streets. Hubbel said the victim from the first accident had followed the suspect on foot as the vehicle continued to roll in an attempt to possibly apprehend the man. The suspect, who had exited the vehicle carrying a sledgehammer and boots, continued away from the scene through a parking lot near Dempsey's Burger Pub, 623 Vt.

levels of concern for even more serious problems: one where senior NRC management becomes involved and a final level where a plant is shut down until off icials determine it is safe to reopen. No U.S. plants are currently listed in either category. Jaczko told a House energy panel the NRC has very strong safety program. The panel was meeting to review the agency’s budget and safety concerns in the wake of the nuclear crisis in Japan. Rep. Ed Pastor, D-Ariz., said he was not worried about the NRC’s safety program. “What about the condition of the reactors?” he asked. “Are they safe enough?” Jaczko said that “right now, we have very good performance from the actual reactors,” but then said there were six reactors in need of more intensive review. “Those are the plants we are most concerned about,” he said. ”With the exception of those six plants, the remaining plants are operating with safety margins, and again all of the plants are meeting our safety requirements.” Burnell and other agency officials said the six reactors Jaczko referred to included three at Oconee, which were recently taken off the watch list. Nine of the 104 U.S. reactors are listed in the second, minor level of concern, Burnell said. Meanwhile, a House energy panel said Thursday it is investigating the Obama administration’s decision to halt plans to bury the nation’s nuclear waste in Nevada. The investigation by the Republican-led Energy and Commerce panel focuses new attention on the Yucca Mountain nuclear repository 90 miles from Las Vegas. Reps. Fred Upton, R-Mich., and John Shimkus, R-Ill., said there is no scientific or technical basis for withdrawing the application for Yucca Mountain, the only permanent storage site in the U.S. designated for spent nuclear fuel. “The tragic events unfolding in Japan underscore the urgent need for the United States to pursue a coherent nuclear policy to safely and permanently store spent nuclear fuel,” Upton and Shimkus said in a statement. Yucca Mountain has been endorsed by many scientists and lawmakers from both parties, and U.S. officials have spent decades and billions of dollars developing the site, yet “this administration has recklessly sought to pull the plug on the Yucca repository without even the sensibility of offering a viable alternative,” the lawmakers said. Upton chairs the energy panel, while Shimkus heads a subcommittee on the environment and economy.

Boehner signals compromise in budget talks By David Espo and Andrew Taylor Associated Press Writers

W A S H I N G T O N — Despite fresh pressure from tea party conservatives, House Speaker John Boehner said Thursday that Republicans “can’t impose our will” on the White House and Senate Democrats on legislation to cut tens of billions of dollars in federal spending. At a news conference, Boehner, R-Ohio, denied Democratic suggestions that he has already agreed to jettison nearly half of the $61 billion in cuts passed by the House a month ago. But as was the case with Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., earlier in the week, he did not say the demand to reduce spending by the full $61 billion was nonnegotiable. “Our goal is to cut spending, not shut down the government,” he said. The government is running on the second of two shortterm spending bills, and at the insistence of Republicans, a total of $10 billion has been

Balawen is retiring at the urging of her family. She will stay home and care for her 80year-old husband, who suffers from Parkinson’s disease. Schmidt said her mother loves to garden and hopes that will keep her occupied. “She might get bored. She likes being with people,” Schmidt said. “In the Philippines, you have neighbors all over.” Balawen knows she’ll visit the restaurant regularly after retiring, and she’ll see employees and customers who love her. “I will miss many people here,” she said. “I have many friends.” — Reporter Brenna Hawley can be reached at 832-7217.

leaky 88-year-old home, recently underwent a home energy audit, which racks up points for Manhattan. The audit found that energy could be saved by sealing up air leaks, improving insulation and installing a programmable thermostat, said Casey Lauer, K-State’s director of the energy and environment program. He estimates that at least 23 percent in energy could be saved. A greek house has also had an energy audit done and others are considering using the tool. Champion said K-State wants to focus on doing energy audits in the spring and make the upgrades in the summer when the students are gone. K-State is also replacing street lighting with LEDs and installing light sensors in hallways, restrooms and offices. Through partnerships with local hardware stores, the university is handing out $1-off coupons for compact fluorescent light bulbs. Perhaps the step Lawrence should be most concerned about is a promotional campaign that will use a female fine arts major as a superhero named Eco-Enforcer, who wears a costume made out of recycled athletic jerseys. Her backup will be Willie the Wildcat. Of course, Lawrence and KU haven’t been slackers. So far, in Lawrence free CFLs were handed at the competition’s kick-off in January, and local home energy auditors are swamped with work. But whether Lawrence is any match for the EcoEnforcer has yet to be determined. — Christine Metz can be reached at 832-6352.

cut so far. Without action by Congress, the money will run out on April 9. Lawmakers are seeking a compromise Boehner that will extend to the Sept. 30 end of the spending year. Senior House and Senate aides, experts in the intricacies of spending legislation, met during the day to explore a possible compromise. Yet officials in both parties said Democrats had not yet provided Republicans with a detailed list of their proposed cuts, an indication that negotiations were not far along. Democratic officials added that some of their proposed reductions would cut $3 billion or so from the Pentagon budget. The House-passed legislation calls for an increase in defense spending, and reserves spending cuts for domestic programs. Boehner spoke as tea party activists demonstrated with-

in shouting distance of the Capitol and a pair of potential GOP presidential contenders injected themselves into the first big test for the GOP majority elected last fall. A few hundred protesters bore signs demanding that the Republican majority they helped vote into off ice remain true to campaign pledges. They drew encouragement from several Republican lawmakers. “Stay courageous and I know you will. Don’t back down and I know you won’t,” Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, a potential presidential contender, exhorted on a cold, drizzly day. “We will stand for cutting the size of government, we won’t change our principle,“ she said. Separately, former Speaker Newt Gingrich, another White House hopeful, met behind closed doors with first-term Republicans. As speaker, Gingrich led the party into twin shutdowns more than a decade ago that wound up damaging

the party politically. He has recently written that the confrontation during the Clinton administration paved the way for a balanced budget agreement a few years later. But he leaves out that, as part of the deal, conservative Republicans were forced to create a new government benefit program — health care for millions of lower-income children — that President Bill Clinton demanded. Boehner was a junior member of the leadership when Gingrich was party leader in the House. Now the leader of a rambunctious majority, his comments marked a public hint of flexibility two days after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid offered one of his own. On Tuesday, the Nevada Democrat said his side in the talks was willing to consider limitations on government regulators as well as other nonspending items the House seeks. In exchange, Democrats would expect Republicans to scale back on their demands for spending cuts.

Senior Libyan official resigns, new blow to regime By Hadeel Al-Shalchi and Ryan Lucas Associated Press Writers

TRIPOLI, LIBYA — Moammar Gadhaf i struck a def iant stance Thursday after two high-profile defections from his regime, saying he’s not the one who should go — it’s the Western leaders who have decimated his military with airstrikes who should resign immediately. Gadhaf i’s message was undercut by its delivery — a scroll across the bottom of state TV as he remained out of sight. The White House said the strongman’s inner circle was clearly crumbling with the loss of Foreign Min-

Gates calls for limited U.S. role in aiding rebels By Donna Cassata and Lolita C. Baldor Associated Press Writers

W A S H I N G T O N — The U.S. should avoid developing a closer relationship with Libyan opposition forces, defense leaders said Thursday, telling an often hostile Congress that foreign nations must now take over airstrike responsibilities and any effort to train and equip the rebels. With the U.S. role in Libya at a turning point, the next critical decision is how, if at all, the U.S. chooses to support the opposition forces, particularly in the face of the ongoing budget crisis at home. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said he Gates is opposed to arming the rebels, a step his boss President Barack Obama has not ruled out. Gates and Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said it was time to turn the bulk of the conflict over to NATO. The U.S. turned over control of the military operation to NATO Thursday, just hours before Gates and Mullen addressed Congress. “The question of what kind of assistance to provide to the opposition is clearly the next step in terms of nonlethal or weapons,” Gates told senators. “All the members of the coalition are thinking about that at this point, but as with our government, no decisions have been made.” Gates and Mullen said that if the rebels are to get arms and training, countries other than the U.S. should provide that assistance. And they stressed that the U.S. still does not have enough good information about who the disparate opposition forces are. “My view would be, if there is going to be that kind of (training) assistance to the opposition, there are plenty of sources for it other than the United States,” Gates told the House Armed Services Committee. Many lawmakers were angered by what they said was the administration’s lack of candor with Congress ahead of the Libya mission. Several complained that the mission is expensive and ill-defined. The ongoing scope of U.S. military action drew heated debate among senators unhappy that the Pentagon will no longer be conducting airstrikes in the coming days — leaving that key combat responsibility to allies such as the French, British and Canadians.

ister Moussa Koussa, who flew from Tunisia to England on Wednesday. Ali Abdessalam Treki, a former foreign minister and U.N. General Assembly president, announced his departure on several opposition websites the next day, saying “It is our nation’s right to live in freedom and democracy and enjoy a good life.” Gadhafi accused the leaders of the countries attacking his forces of being “affected by power madness.” “The solution for this problem is that they resign immediately and their peoples f ind alternatives to them,” the Libya state news agency quoted him as saying.

His government’s forces have regained momentum on the rapidly moving front line of the battle with opposition forces, retaking the town of Brega after pushing the rebels miles back toward the territory they hold in eastern Libya. The rebels said they were undaunted, taking heart from the departures in Gadhafi’s inner circle. “We believe that the regime is crumbling from within,” opposition spokesman Mustafa Gheriani said in Benghazi, the rebels’ de facto capital. He compared Gadhafi to a wounded animal. “An injured wolf is much more dangerous than a

healthy wolf. But we hope the defections continue and I think he’ll find himself with no one around him,” Gheriani said. Most high-level Libyan officials are trying to defect but are under tight security and having difficulty leaving the country, said Ibrahim Dabbashi, the deputy ambassador in Libya’s U.N. mission, which now backs the opposition. Koussa is privy to all the inner workings of the regime, so his departure could open the door for some hard intelligence, though Britain refused to offer him immunity from prosecution. “Koussa is one of the pil-

lars of Gadhafi’s regime since the 1970s,” said Abdel Moneim al-Houni, a former Libyan Arab League representative who was among the first wave of Libyan diplomats to defect this month. “His defection means that he knew that the end of Gadhafi is coming and he wanted to jump from the sinking boat.” Libyan officials, who initially denied Koussa’s defection, said he had resigned because he was sick with diabetes and high blood pressure. Government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim said Koussa was given permission to go to Tunisia, but the regime was surprised to learn he had flown to London.

Ferraro blazed key trail for women

EDITORIALS

Vital votes Choosing commission an important duty.

o the people of Lawrence really care about the future of their city? Apparently, those who do are in the small minority. In the last Lawrence City Commission election, in 2009, only about 14 percent of Lawrence’s eligible voters actually went to the polls to decide who would control the city’s future. This is a disgrace. It also says there really isn’t any justification for the majority of Lawrence residents to complain about city actions and policies, how the city deals with the quality of life in the community, job opportunities, the recruitment or attraction of new industry and business, growth or no growth, zoning matters, the condition of our streets, how the city is planning for future needs for clean water and sewage treatment, recreation facilities, falling retail sales and on and on. Next Tuesday, Lawrence voters have the opportunity to elect three members of the five-member City Commission. These five individuals, like them or not, agree with them or not, are the five people who call the shots for Lawrence. This is a tremendous responsibility, and the type of individuals, the caliber of these members, their past records of achievement, their honesty, their fiscal soundness in how they run their own personal or business affairs, their education, their records (not their campaign strategies) on encouraging or opposing new jobs and new companies for the community, how they deal with Kansas University officials, their personal conduct, their values, what they think about annexation matters, their view of Lawrence’s future — all are important factors when considering for whom to vote in next Tuesday’s election. Which candidates, if any, genuinely believe in the importance of attracting new business and industry, creating new jobs for individuals with varying job skills? Will Lawrence continue to see a drain in sales tax dollars due to policies of the city commissioners? Is this a strong or weak slate of candidates? Is this slate likely to generate enthusiasm and excitement, or is it one that barely causes a ripple in the usual miserable voter turnout? This is a serious matter. What kinds of individuals do local voters want to put in control of the city? These decisions will affect most every Lawrence resident, even the thousands who commute daily to Kansas City, Topeka, Ottawa or some other community to work or shop and really are only part-time residents of Lawrence. What percentage of commuters think it is important to get involved in city affairs and vote in City Commission elections? How much do voters really know about the people who will determine the fiscal stability of this city, local tax rates and spending policies? How carefully will they spend taxpayers’ dollars and what is their record in this important matter? Why isn’t there greater interest in the election? Is it the caliber of those seeking office? Is it a sense by the majority of residents that they, individually, really can’t make much of a difference, or is it a belief that no matter what the challenges may be, Lawrence usually slips through without too much damage so why worry about who serves on the commission? Whatever the reasoning, it is dangerous because there is nothing guaranteed about Lawrence’s future. Past elections and past commissioners played a major role in cooling down Lawrence’s growth and sense of excitement. Years ago, Lawrence was looked upon as one of the nation’s finest, most progressive university cities. It enjoyed steady growth and truly was a shining star. The late Charlie Kimball, who headed Kansas City’s Midwest Research Institute, once said Lawrence should be “the lighthouse on the vast Midwest prairie.” This light does not shine as brightly these days. Have local residents lost, or put aside, their enthusiasm and dreams for having Lawrence become an even finer, more progressive city? Voter turnout in Tuesday’s election will offer an excellent read on the level of interest or concern about the city’s future as well as the level of confidence and enthusiasm for those seeking a position on the City Commission.

It was a hot Thursday morning in Minnesota. Across the country Democrats were converging on San Francisco to nominate Walter F. Mondale for president. There was little mystery to the proceedings; the former vice president had beaten away a dangerous challenge from Gary Hart and all that remained was to name a running mate. Presidential nominees in those days did that in the convention city itself. Though history remembers Mondale as the last of the New Deal-era conventional Democrats, there was a strong unconventional streak to him and it stood in vivid relief that day in July 1984. Half a continent from the party leaders, Mondale walked in beneath the marble dome of the state Capitol in St. Paul and told the world he had chosen a 48year-old daughter of an Italian immigrant to be his running mate. She was the first woman on a national ticket for a major party.

Emotional day Minnesotans are famously unemotive, but that day the old building rocked with excitement. Geraldine Ferraro, a three-term congresswoman from Queens with a brash attitude, a quick mind and an iron will, understood the burden she was shouldering but, more important, she understood the moment she was creating. “American history,” she said, “is about doors being opened — doors of opportunity for everyone, no matter who you are, as long as you’re willing to earn it.” At the conclusion of that sentence I saw a Secret Service man wipe away a tear. “She did the new thing,” Mondale, now 83, said in a telephone conversation hours after she died. “She had a lot of people trying to knock her down, but she was brave and resilient. I’m sure she died feeling good about what she did. She left behind a different country.” Today, 88 women serve in Congress, including 17 in the Senate

David Shribman never became “viceFerraro president, of course.

The Mondale-Ferraro ticket lost every state but Mondale’s home, but Ferraro stands as a symbol — a pioneer, to be sure, but also an exemplar of grace.”

— more than five times the rate of women on Capitol Hill when Ferraro was elected. This year, six women are serving as governors of their states, more than 1,700 are in state legislatures. More than 40 percent of the state legislators in Colorado are women. Three women have been secretaries of state, four have been named to the Supreme Court, with three serving now.

Ahead of her time They are in many respects the legatees of Geraldine Anne Ferraro, who died Saturday at age 75. “She was a woman ahead of her time,” said Sen. Olympia Snowe of Maine, the lone Republican freshman woman who entered the House in January 1979 when Ferraro was the lone Democratic woman to enter the House that year. “She was determined to make a difference on issues for women and working families. I remember Geraldine leading an effort on pension reform. Women were discovering on their husband’s death they had no pension benefits, and that outraged her.” Another remnant of an era

long ago: Reps. Snowe and Ferraro attended each other’s fundraisers. Ferraro never became vice president, of course. The Mondale-Ferraro ticket lost every state but Mondale’s home, but Ferraro stands as a symbol — a pioneer, to be sure, but also an exemplar of grace. “There was pressure on her from the moment she was selected,” remembered John Sasso, who ran her 1984 campaign. “The hopes that people were putting on her, especially young women and girls, is hard to believe today. But she handled it all with enormous calm and dignity. The thing I remember is how grounded she was, and how much courage she had.”

Grace under fire She needed that grounding, and that courage. Political professionals remember her press conference when she patiently fielded questions from a hostile press corps about her husband’s business practices. To this day the strategy of standing bravely until every question is answered is called “a Ferraro.” She endured catcalls from critics, one of whom was Barbara Bush, who said her husband’s rival in the vice presidential debate that fall was a pejorative that rhymed with “witch,” a remark Bush always regretted having made. And Ferraro fought cancer for a dozen years. “She didn’t deserve all the stuff that was thrown at her,” said 1988 Democratic nominee Michael S. Dukakis, one of the party leaders Mondale kept as a backup in the event he didn’t choose a woman or a member of a minority group. Mondale had conducted his vice-presidential search in public, with several potential running mates walking down the path to his prairie-style home in North Oaks, Minn. The smart money was on Henry Cisneros, then the mayor of San Antonio — so appealing that John R. Reilly,

who was conducting the search for Mondale, later said that he looked as if he had been bred by kings. Those close to the campaign thought he might choose a woman. They had the mayor of San Francisco, Dianne Feinstein, in mind. The press corps was convinced Ferraro, a protege of Speaker Thomas P. O’Neill Jr., had been too pushy — a term never applied to the male contenders — in her interview with Mondale. “Here goes,” Mondale said when he picked up the phone to call Ferraro and to ask her to be ferried to Minnesota on a private plane in the black of early morning. She arrived at the Mondale home at 2 a.m. “There was total elation, total excitement in the room,” remembered Maxine Isaacs, then the Mondale press secretary. “We thought we were on the brink of a brand-new world.” The appearance of Ferraro’s blond head on the pillow on daughter Eleanor Mondale’s bed was the only hint that Mondale’s children had that their father had made his historic selection.

Unfulfilled legacy She proved to be a tough campaigner. She took on George H.W. Bush and was a remorseless critic of Ronald Reagan. A month before the election she assailed the president for his failure to prevent three explosions at American outposts in Beirut in 17 months. “The first incident was a tragedy,” she said. “The second showed neglect. And the third was a disgrace.” Ferraro didn’t live to see a woman elected president — “an unfulfilled legacy,” as Isaacs put it. But she deserves to be remembered as a trailblazer. “I think it was one of the greatest things I ever did, and it was a great thing that Geraldine did,” said Mondale. “I’m very proud of her and I’m very proud of doing it.” — David Shribman is executive editor of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Underage drinking at lakes targeted TOPEKA — Kansas park officials say they will put a special emphasis on stopping underage drinking at northeast Kansas lakes this spring. Department officials say natural resources officers will be looking for minors who are drinking at Osage State Fishing Lake, Lyon State Fishing Lake, and the Melvern and Pomona reservoirs. If a citation is issued to a minor, parents will be notified and required to come to the lake to pick up their child. Similar operations in the past have resulted in several arrests. Adults who provided the liquor or drugs to minors also have been arrested.

LAWRENCE HIGH’S SHANE WILLOUGHBY IS CONGRATULATED BY HIS TEAMMATES after scoring the first run of a three-run fourth inning against Shawnee Mission Northwest. The Lions turned back the Cougars, 10-1, on Thursday at LHS.

Assertive LHS clocks Cougars for victory No. 1 By Clark Goble Journal-World Sports Writer

An aggressive mentality on the basepaths is an important part of Lawrence High baseball coach Brad Stoll’s offensive philosophy. “We always tell them, ‘If you get picked off, we’re gonna run again. Don’t lose your aggressiveness just because you get called out,’” Stoll said. Apparently, his team paid attention. After squandering three early

scoring opportunities by running into outs, the Lions just kept on running, picking up five steals en route to a 10-1 victory in the Lions’ home opener against Shawnee Mission Northwest on Thursday. Lawrence High won its first game of the season after dropping three on the road. In the first three innings Thursday, it looked like the Lions’ aggressive mentality might be their downfall. LHS made three base-running outs in three different ways: sliding past the bag, get-

ting caught in a pickle and getting picked off. “We misread a few things,” Stoll said. “Hey, I’d rather have it happen now early in the season than in a postseason game or the state tournament.” Senior starting pitcher Jake Johnson threw a complete game, allowing only an unearned run in the fifth inning. Johnson attacked the strike zone in the first inning, retiring the first three batters without throwing a ball.

“Our defense is really good,” Johnson said. “The defense really puts a lot of confidence in your mind up there. Knowing that you have a defense behind you, I just go up there and let them hit the ball.” Johnson’s changeup set up his fastball, and the Cougars just couldn’t generate much more than ground balls. Stoll said that the coaching staff needed Johnson to pitch well so the Lions’ bullpen Please see LHS, page 3B

Kukuk, Toalson ignite FSHS baseball, 4-2 By Ben Ward

spring. But that also means the Firebirds have grown somewhat accustomed to playing in the near-frigid temperatures, and Cody Kukuk and Colin Toalson showed as much Thursday afternoon. Kukuk and Toalson combined for a sharp performance from the mound as FSHS edged Leavenworth, 4-2, on a chilly evening at FSHS. “I don’t know that there’s necessarily a rhyme or reason to it,” coach Mike Hill said of dealing with the elements.

— Free State’s Colin Toalson, on the chilly conditions “I don’t think it took (Kukuk) or Toalson a certain amount of time to go. They were both hot right out of the chute.” Kukuk (2-0) worked the first four innings for FSHS (4-0) and allowed one unearned run while striking out six. Toalson worked the final three innings to notch the save, allowing one run, and also fanned six. “On the mound, it’s a little easier (to stay warm),” said Toalson,

who started the game at shortstop, “but when I was in the field, I was blowing in my hand every five seconds. It was freezing.” Kukuk agreed, saying he had to move around a bit just to keep warm when he was on base. And he was on base three times — the second after he cranked an RBI double in the third inning that plated Preston Schenck and tied the game at 1. First baseman Montana Samuels then brought Kukuk around with a sharp single to right field. Toalson ripped an RBI single in the fourth to extend the Firebird lead to 3-1, and Samuels trotted home for Free State’s fourth run after a fifth-inning balk by Pioneer starter Judson Cole.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Gill more comfortable as spring drills begin By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

A little more than 12 months ago, Kansas University football coach Turner Gill strolled out to his new team’s practice fields for the first day of spring drills and tried his hardest to project that he was in control. It wasn’t that difficult. Basking in the abundant sunshine, Gill smiled his trademark smile, joked around with his new players and spoke a language he knows as well as any — football.

Still, while the pieces from all the other spring football openers he had been a part of were in place, Gill was not completely comfortable. “It was the unknown last year,” Gill told the JournalWorld Gill Wednesday, as he counted down the hours to the start of this year’s spring drills, which begin at 3:45 p.m.

today. “Now it’s the known. We’re all a lot more in tune to where we’re at.” For Gill, that means a greater sense of belonging. It’s his program now. He knows it. The players know it. And everything the Jayhawks do they do because that’s the way Gill wants things to be done. From emphasizing greater focus on mental toughness and explosive movements during the offseason conditioning program to which stretches and drills are done in what order during the pre-practice routine,

everything that happens has Gill’s stamp on it. It’s not just Gill who finds that appealing. “There is a different feel on both sides; I’m talking from a coach’s perspective and from the players’ perspective,” Gill said. “Now they know what the expectation is, and they know what we do and how we go about doing it. Here’s what we have. Here is where we can improve. And here’s how we’re gonna do it.” Please see GILL, page 3B

KANSAS CITY, MO. — Take away a near-collapse by the bullpen, and this was exactly what the Los Angeles Angels wanted to see in their season opener. Torii Hunter and Jeff Mathis homered, Jered Weaver pitched two-hit ball into the seventh inning, and the Angels beat the Kansas City Royals, 4-2, on Thursday. “I just tried to keep people off the basepaths as much as possible,” Weaver said. “It’s obviously nerve-racking the first time out.” Weaver allowed only two harmless singles by Melky Cabrera before he was replaced by Hisanori Takahashi with one out in the seventh.

Hunter and Mathis, on his 28th birthday, hit solo shots off Luke 2 Hochevar, who pitched 5 ⁄ 3 innings and gave up four runs in his first opening-day start. Once Weaver was out of the game, the Royals made it interesting on solo shots by Mike Aviles and Jeff Francoeur, but Los Angeles’ bullpen escaped threats in the eighth and ninth. “Weaver is as good a pitcher I’ve seen at being able to disrupt hitters’ timing,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “That’s what pitching is all about, trying to keep the opposition off balance, and he does it as well as anybody. He has a changeup, got different speeds on his slider and throws his fastball at different speeds, and he bangs strikes.” Aviles’ leadoff drive off Kevin Jepsen trimmed Los Angeles’ lead to 4-2 in the eighth. The Royals loaded the bases on three walks, but Michael Kohn struck out Francoeur and retired Alcides Escobar on a fly ball to end the inning. With runners at the corners and two out in the ninth, Alex Gordon barely missed a home run before Fernando Rodney struck him out for the save. Gordon was 0-for-5 with three strikeouts and left five runners. “We were fortunate at the end. Too many base on balls,” Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. “When we needed to make a pitch, our guys did. But you can’t just keep cracking open the door. They’re an aggressive team, and they’ve got guys who can drive the ball out of the park.” Please see ROYALS, page 4B

more prestigious postseason tournament. J.T. Durley and Graham Hatch scored 12 points each to lead a balanced offense, and the fourthseeded Shockers simply overwhelmed top-seeded Alabama, 6657, on Thursday night to win the NIT championship at Madison Square Garden. Hatch was 4-for-4 from beyond

the arc, including back-to-back shots in the closing minutes, as Wichita State (29-8) finished up a remarkable postseason run in style. “We obviously, as a team, have gone through a roller coaster,” Hatch said. “We came back from those disappointments, we pulled together, and it’s just magical. It’s unbelievable.”

Reputations, good and bad, are molded in NCAA Final Fours. Lew Alcindor and Chris Webber immediately come to mind. So before another college basketball championship is decided Monday night, here’s one observer’s top-10 list of memorable individual performances in national title games. Remember, these are finals, so Bill Bradley’s 58-point game on 22-of-29 shooting against Wichita State in the 1965 third-place game is reserved for another listing:

Bill Walton, 1973 Arguably the greatest performance in NCAA history. The UCLA center made 21 of 22 shots, scored 44 points and added 13 rebounds in an 87-66 win over Memphis State. “That was the best performance I’ve seen,” Memphis coach Gene Bartow said afterward. “Ever.” Lew Alcindor, 1969 The man later known as Kareem AbdulJabbar completed his third consecutive Most Outstanding Player performance with 37 points and 20 rebounds in UCLA’s 92-72 domination of Rick Mount and Purdue. In two games, Alcindor scored 62 points and grabbed 41 rebounds. Bill Russell, 1956 Before he started winning NBA titles on a yearly basis, Russell led San Francisco to two NCAA titles in a row. His final college game was an 83-71 victory over Iowa in which the Dons’ center contributed 26 points, 27 rebounds and a giant defensive presence. Danny Manning, 1988 “Danny and the Miracles,” as the Kansas Jayhawks were known, beat conference rival Oklahoma, 83-79, in the championship game. Manning scored 31 points and added 18 rebounds, five steals, two blocks and converted four clutch free throws in the final seconds. Gail Goodrich, 1965 UCLA had more than dominating big men. Goodrich, a lefty-shooting guard, scored 42 points in a 91-80 victory over Michigan in which he shot 12-of-22 from the field — many of which would have been three-pointers today — and 18-of-20 from the line. Jack Givens, 1978 Duke played a zone against Kentucky in the championship game. Big mistake. Givens, a lefty-shooting, 6-foot-4 forward, came through with 41 points on 18-of-27 shooting in the 94-88 victory. He scored Kentucky’s last 16 points of the first half. Pervis Ellison, 1986 “Never Nervous Pervis” was a cool customer in leading Louisville to a 72-69 win over Duke. With top scorers Billy Thompson and Milt Wagner not shooting well, the freshman forward took up the void with 25 points and 11 rebounds. Keith Smart, 1987 Indiana’s point guard scored all the important points in the Hoosiers’ 74-73 comeback win over Syracuse, including a 16-foot jumper with five seconds left for the winning basket. Smart scored 12 of Indiana’s final 15 points to deny a Syracuse freshman named Derrick Coleman a national title. Clyde Lovellette, 1952 St. John’s run to the championship game was spoiled by Kansas and its imposing 6-foot-9 future pro.

Purdue to pay Painter $2.3M annually WEST LAFAYETTE, IND. — Matt Painter has a new, eight-year contract from Purdue that will pay him at least $2.3 million per year and assurances that the school will take other steps to keep the Boilermakers competitive. Beyond that, Painter would just like to get back to basketball. Painter met with reporters Thursday, a day after the contract announcement ended speculation that he would be taking the open coaching job at Missouri. Painter met with Missouri athletic director Mike Alden on Tuesday morning in Orlando, Fla. He wouldn’t say whether he was officially offered the chance to replace Mike Anderson, who left for Arkansas last week after Missouri had hoped to keep him. “When you talk professionally with other people, it stays private,” Painter said. “You have to assess where you are, where you’re going, but through discussions of that nature, you’re listening. Talk is cheap, and it comes down to action. I’m happy to be a Boilermaker.”

COURTS Ex-aide: Anderson injected Bonds SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds’ former personal shopper has testified that she saw the slugger’s private trainer inject Bonds in the navel before a road trip during the 2002 season. Kathy Hoskins said Thursday she was in Bonds’ bedroom packing his clothes for the trip when the seven-time NL MVP and trainer Greg Anderson came into the room. Anderson expressed concerns about her presence, but Bonds said not to worry about Hoskins because “she’s my girl.” Hoskins testified that she then watched Anderson inject Bonds. She said didn’t ask about the injection, but Bonds volunteered that it was “a little something, something for when I go on the road. You can’t detect it.”

Watching from behind home plate as he backed up the play, Toalson noticed something that left him at a loss.

Cole, who had advanced from first on the single, had taken a hard turn as he rounded second base. Alertly, McCullough turned and teamed with shortstop Dylan Perry to finish off the rundown and record the second out of the inning.

While Cole scrambled around in no-man’s land, Cribb attempted to stretch his single into a double. Fortunately for the Firebirds, center fielder Preston Schenck was crashing the play — allowing McCullough to flip him the ball to finish off a rare 7-5-6-5-8, game-ending, double play. “I’ve never seen anything like that,” Kukuk said. FSHS fans and opponents will undoubtedly see plenty more of the Kukuk/Toalson combo on the mound this year. “We’re not in our rhythm yet in terms of our rotation,” Hill said. “It’s early. You have to protect people’s arms. We’re watching pitch counts closely. You don’t win championships in March.”

Gill and company spent much of last spring getting used to each other. There was new terminology to learn, new rules to adhere to and different philosophies to be bought and sold. Though a good chunk of every spring is spent shaking off the rust and getting back into the routine, Gill’s hoping this year’s squad will be able to work more on improving and less on feeling comfortable during the next four weeks. “Now I know how to approach it, and I know my players better,” he said. “We know what we need to do to get them to respond in a better way. We didn’t know that last year.” There are plenty of questions to answer this spring, but, if year two is anything like Gill’s debut, there is no guarantee any of them will be answered.

of things to watch this spring is the Jayhawks’ search for a starting quarterback. Senior Quinn Mecham and sophomore Jordan Webb will be in camp, and both have starting experience. They’ll be competing for the job with incoming freshman Brock Berglund, who graduated high school early, enrolled at KU in January but then had to return home to Colorado for the rest of the semester because of “personal circumstances.” “It would be helpful and great if Brock was here in the spring,” Gill said. “But it doesn’t deteriorate him possibly having an opportunity to still be the guy in the fall.

Gill likes to give all of his guys a chance to compete for their spots. “I just really want to see every position be more productive,” Gill said, when asked which position he was most looking forward to evaluating this spring. “We’ve got to be better as a football team, and there’s not one position or another that’s more important. I know everybody’s going to look at the quarterback, and I understand that, but I’m looking more at the areas of offense, defense and special teams. (We want to) identify our playmakers and our leadership development. When you have those things in place, you can move forward in trying to be better individually, better as a unit and then, obviously, better as a football team.”

Morningstar falls to Pullen in challenge J-W Staff Reports

Kansas University men’s basketball senior Brady Morningstar converted nine three-pointers in the State Farm Three-Point Challenge on Thursday on the University of Houston campus. Morningstar didn’t make it out of the quarterfinals, losing to Kansas State’s Jacob Pullen, who converted 13 threes. Neither Morningstar nor Pullen advanced to the semifi- Morningstar nals. “I am a jump-shot player, and this was more of a setshooter’s competition,” Morningstar said. “I wish I would have done better. I had a great time, meeting a lot of people and seeing some Big 12 players like Jacob (Pullen) and LaceDarius (Dunn, Baylor). Coach (Bill) Self came out, and the whole event was a good time.” The College of Charleston’s Andrew Goudelock held off Chris Warren of Mississippi for the title. Goudelock drilled 16 threes in the first round, 23 in the semifinals and 21 in the finals. During the slam-dunk competition, Morningstar and P ullen assisted John Williams of UNC-Asheville with one of his slams by climbing up ladders and holding a ball while Williams snatched it from the duo and slammed it home.

Tharp, who earned freshman All-America honors in 2009 after racking up 59 tackles while playing in all 12 games, missed the 2010 season because of a foot injury he suffered last August. Gill said Wednesday that Tharp was 100 percent and ready for spring ball. “He’s going, he’s going, ready to go,” Gill said.

Three returnees expected to sit Gill confirmed Wednesday that three returning Jayhawks would miss spring drills because of injuries. Junior running back Rell Lewis, 5-9, 205; senior cornerback Isiah Barfield, 5-11, 185; and sophomore offensive lineman Riley Spencer, 6-7, 300, all will sit out of contact drills this spring. Barfield and Spencer are recovering from shoulder surgery, and Lewis is still rehabbing the torn ACL that forced him to miss 2010.

Boston Celtics earlier this week wrote a blog on the NCAA Tournament for the Boston Globe. Some excerpts: “So who’s still standing in their NCAA pool? I was doing pretty well up until my alma mater let me down. I was crushed when the Jayhawks lost to VCU last week. Not only did it kill my bracket, but I also just couldn’t believe it. I gotta give it to the Rams though, they’ve been playing amazing ball. They’ve got heart, and coach Smart is…well…smart. “I give KU props, though. They came a long way and outlasted a bunch of other top squads in the tournament like Louisville and Duke. Kansas is always in it and certainly had a good chance this year. I pick them every year to win it because that there’s my alma mater, and I gotta stay true to my roots. But this year they realistically had a great shot at winning it all. They’re quick and well-coached. I like the way they play. I had them up against North Carolina in my final. Gotta give some love to Roy Williams. “So even though my bracket didn’t pan out, I’m still proud of Kansas for making it as far as they did. Coach and the guys had a great season — I know what they’re goin’ through, but you move on and put all your focus into next year. It’s tough because in tournaments like this, no matter how far you make it, only one team wins it all.” To read more of Pierce’s blog check out http://boston.com/community/blogs/paul_pierce/2011/ 03/heres_to_ku.html.

Reds win on walkoff, 7-6 ————

Dodgers upend defending champ Giants, 2-1 The Associated Press

National League Reds 7, Brewers 6 CINCINNATI — Ramon Hernandez hit a two-out, threerun homer in the bottom of the ninth inning, rallying Cincinnati to the victory in an opening-day flashback to its NL Central title season. The Brewers became the first team in 42 years to open the season with back-to-back homers when Rickie Weeks and Carlos Gomez connected off Edinson Volquez. Ryan Braun also had a solo shot, helping Milwaukee take a 6-3 lead to the ninth. That’s when the Reds reverted to their winning ways of 2010. Their first six wins last season came in their final at-bat, tying the majorleague record. Hernandez connected off closer John Axford (0-1). Logan Ondrusek pitched a scoreless inning to get the win.

Dodgers 2, Giants 1 LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw struck out nine in seven dominant innings, and Matt Kemp scored the go-ahead run on a throwing error by catcher Buster Posey in the sixth, sending the Dodgers over the defending World Series champions. Kershaw (1-0) allowed four hits and walked one in his first opening-day start. The 23-year-old left-hander struck out three of the four batters he faced in the first, giving him 500 strikeouts in his career. Jonathan Broxton, back in the closer’s role after losing it in the second half of last season, gave up a one-out homer to Pat Burrell in the ninth but hung on for the save after a scoreless eighth by HongChih Kuo.

Braves 2, Nationals 0 W A S H I N G T O N — Returning from major knee surgery, Chipper Jones doubled before scoring the 2011 season’s first run, and Derek Lowe allowed 2 three singles in 5 ⁄3 innings, helping Fredi Gonzalez get the win in his debut as Atlanta’s manager. The Braves played their first regular-season game since Bobby Cox retired at the end of 2010 after two decades — and 15 playoff appearances — as their skipper. With his sinker in fine, darting form, Lowe (1-0) struck out six and walked two. Brian McCann drove in 1999 NL MVP Jones by grounding a single up the middle off Livan Hernandez (0-1) in the first, and Jason Heyward led off the second with a homer.

Weaver (1-0) had faced the minimum until Cabrera flared a single into left with one out in the fourth. The right-hander, the Angels’ pitcher of the year the past two seasons, then retired six of the next seven, allowing only one walk, before Cabrera singled up the middle with two out in the sixth. Hunter, on a 3-2 pitch, cranked a 446-foot shot over the center-field fence leading off the fourth. It was his 27th homer against the Royals, the most he’s hit off any club. Vernon Wells and Erick Aybar followed with back-to-back doubles. Hunter also singled in the fifth but a piece of his bat went into the stands on the thirdbase side and hit a woman. She appeared to be bleeding and Hunter sent somebody to give her a souvenir bat. “I hope and pray that she’s all right,” Hunter said. She is. Stadium security said the woman was treated at the scene and insisted on

THE ANGELS’ JEFF MATHIS, RIGHT, IS OUT AT THE PLATE after colliding with Kansas City catcher Matt Treanor as he tried to score on a hit by Peter Bourjos during the eighth inning. The Angels won anyway, 4-2, Thursday in Kansas City, Mo. remaining at the game. She did, however, ask to be seated somewhere out of the way of flying bats. The Royals committed three errors. After Mathis connected in the sixth, Peter Bourjos bunted and wound up at third on throwing errors by Hochevar and second baseman Chris Getz. Maicer Izturis ended

up driving him in with a single. “I think this is like my 13th opening day,” Hunter said. “Thirteen of them and I’m still kind of nervous and anxious to see what happens. But it’s cool to come with a win.” Takahashi allowed Francoeur’s two-out drive in the seventh. Third baseman Aviles was

booed when he ran toward the left-field dugout chasing a high pop off the bat of Bobby Abreu but let it fall in. It was called a no-play, but boos echoed again when Abreu then singled with two out in the fifth. But Aviles made a nice play on Wells’ grounder to end the inning. Hochevar (0-1) also allowed nine hits, struck out five and

walked none. One of the runs on his line was unearned. ●

Notes: Royals relievers have switched sides. Since Kauffman Stadium opened in 1973, the home team bullpen had always been behind right field, the visitors’ behind left. But now they’ve switched, giving K.C. dugout a better view of what’s happening in

NBA roundup The Associated Press

Celtics 107, Spurs 97 SAN ANTONIO — The Boston Celtics finally got a big win and their big man back. They may also reclaim the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference. And the San Antonio Spurs, at this dismal rate, may give first place in the West away. Rajon Rondo had 22 points and 14 assists, center Jermaine O’Neal returned from knee surgery, and the Celtics ended a miserable March by not slipping further from first in the East, beating the slumping Spurs, 107-97, on Thursday night. Paul Pierce added 21 points and 11 rebounds, and Kevin Garnett scored 20. The Celtics won for just the second time in five games and, ending the month at 9-7, moved within two games of Chicago for the No. 1 playoff seed with eight games to go. “This is a good place to try and gather some momentum,” Pierce said. “You talk about the team with the best record. What better place to get back on track than here?” Yet these days, San Antonio’s luster isn’t what it used to be. The Spurs lost their fifth straight — their longest skid all season — and the timing couldn’t be worse. San Antonio has seven games left but is in danger of falling out of first place after comfortably being No. 1 in the West all season. San Antonio’s woes have renewed hopes the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas have of taking the top spot. The Lak-

ers were three games back and hosted the Mavericks — who were 31⁄2 games behind the Spurs — later Thursday night. “Of course we want to be No. 1. We don’t want to give it way just because we like being underdogs,” Spurs guard Manu Ginobili said. “We want to win it. We put ourselves in an unbelievable situation.” Tony Parker led the Spurs with 23 points. Tim Duncan returned after missing the last four games with a sprained ankle and finished with 20 points and 13 rebounds. The Celtics celebrated the return of their own big man: O’Neal. The 14-year veteran played for the first time since January after having arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. He scored five points in 11 minutes and hit his only two shots. He turned his last into a three-point play after getting fouled, a play that swung the momentum back to Boston after the Spurs had gotten within seven early in the fourth. O’Neal said he felt winded at times and said he was shocked at the pace of the game. It was just the 18th game for O’Neal this season. “We need him back,” said Celtics coach Doc Rivers, alluding to his depleted frontcourt that is still without

Lakers 109, Mavericks 82 LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant scored 28 points, Andrew Bynum had 18 points and 13 rebounds, and the Lakers defeated Dallas in a testy affair in which four players were ejected. Early in the fourth quarter, the Lakers’ Matt Barnes and the Mavericks’ Jason Terry and Brendan Haywood were thrown out following an altercation under the basket. Los Angeles’ Shannon Brown was later ejected in a separate incident. The late skirmish didn’t take away from the Lakers’ 16th win in 17 games since the All-Star break, helping them pull within 2 1⁄ 2 games of slumping San Antonio for the NBA’s top overall record. Dirk Nowitzki had 27 points and 13 rebounds for the Mavericks, whose five-game winning streak ended.

How can I open up after 14 years of acting totally self-sufficient? — Disappointed

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

Dear Disappointed: You sound smart, sassy and completely self-centered. Nearly every sentence in your letter has “I” in it. It seems as if you behave in order to be admired, and this is what your friends are reacting to. If you truly want to open up, take a genuine interest in your friends without comparing their accomplishments to yours. Ask how they’re doing and how they feel. See if you can make it through the day without saying something snarky. Don’t brag about yourself.

‘CHAOS’ and ‘Camelot’ debut The success of the USA network’s cheeky comedy-drama blends from “Burn Notice” to “Psych” can be seen in “CHAOS” (7 p.m., CBS), the new network dramedy set in the CIA. The show’s title refers to Clandestine Administration and Oversight Services (CHAOS). It’s also a nod to “Get Smart,” the 1965 TV spy spoof written by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry. In that comedy, CHAOS were the bad guys who tangled with Maxwell Smart and the good guys of CONTROL. Don’t go looking for shoe phones or slapstick here. In fact, the humor sometimes revolves around how low-tech the CIA can be because it’s a government agency and therefore adapts to new technology at the speed of the post office or the DMV. Their computers still run Windows ’97. Rick Martinez (Freddy Rodriguez) wants to be a spy very badly but discovers that his job has been downsized before he’s even done interviewing for the position. Or at least what the big boss H.J. Higgins (Kurtwood Smith) tells him. Higgins hires Rick to spy on the CHAOS group, a clandestine outfit with their own agenda. But once ensconced with CHAOS he seems smitten with their he-man derring-do. Being spies, they’re also hip to his mole status and entrap him in a compromising position so he belongs to them. The pilot episode ricochets all over the globe with neither the viewer nor hapless Rick entirely aware of which end is up. With the exception of a brash Scotsman, the CHAOS spies seem particularly generic and the show never really finds its center. As a thriller, it’s rather tepid and as a comedy it’s only sporadically funny. And if it were on USA, that network would have the good sense to air it for grown ups at 9 p.m. and not squander it at 7. ● Filled with swordsmanship, exalted talk of destiny and damsels in undress, “Camelot” (9 p.m., Starz) becomes the latest expensive, critic-proof, sex-and-violence mythic drama from the pay-cable network. Like most re-imaginings of the Knights of the Round Table, it borders on parody. Arthur (Jamie Campbell-Bower) looks and acts like a medieval surfer, a righteous dude with blond locks more interested in deflowering the local damsels than discovering his destiny. But fate arrives in the person of Merlin (Joseph Fiennes), who looks a lot more like a Wall Street Hedge fund manager than a sorcerer. Whatever. We soon learn that Arthur is the secret son of the just poisoned king Uther and that makes Arthur’s existence a threat the fetching and scheming Morgan (Eva Green) who just bumped off her royal daddy to inherit his realm. Guinevere (Tamsin Egerton) also appears in the pilot, but only in Arthur’s dreams. And rather racy dreams at that. Like “Spartacus” and “Pillars of the Earth,” this “Camelot” is a lot more about spectacle than making sense.

Tonight’s other highlights ● Gwyneth Paltrow explores her roots on “Who Do You Think You Are?” (7 p.m., NBC). ● Brothers bicker on “Kitchen Nightmares” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Jo’s daughter becomes a murder witness on “CSI:NY” (8 p.m., CBS). ● Christopher Lloyd (“Back to the Future”) guest-stars on “Fringe” (8 p.m., Fox). Last week Fox announced that “Fringe” would return next season.

Yesterday’s

Dear Annie: I am a 14-yearold girl. I am arguably the smartest in the school and have never lacked confidence. I admit I am prideful and have never questioned my selfworth. I am always the one in the group with a sarcastic remark, although I am always careful never to hurt anyone with my words. I consider myself literate beyond my years. This past week, my friends said they didn’t think I could be truly “nice.” I don’t question my friends. I know they are the best of the group, and I am thankful for them. But one of them described me as “cold.” This upsets me a great deal, as I thought I had been doing better opening up to people and being less aloof. I thought I was succeeding, but I have failed miserably. I don’t particularly want to be Miss Congeniality, but I also don’t want to be labeled as cruel or cold. I am fun-loving and can be sweet and compassionate. It appears to be overlooked that I do volunteer service regularly and have befriended “outcasts” when others wouldn’t look their way. I really do try, and I know my personality is getting in the way. But I don’t know how else to present myself. I don’t want to alienate
