Durham to state: Fire election chief President Board of Elections upholds Democratic House primary

appoints VP search chair � University Secretary

By GREG PESSIN The Chronicle

Although the Durham County Board of Elections voted Tuesday against throwing out the May 2 House District 23 Democratic primary election, it voted Wednesday to throw out the woman who administered it.

The board met last night in a closed session to discuss the employment status of elections director Carol Booth. It voted 2-1 to recommend her termination to the executive secretary of the state board of elections.

Board member Ronald Gregory was joined in his decision by Jennifer Melvin and said Booth, who has worked in the elections office since 1993, caused many of the May 2 vote’s problems by failing to properly implement the board’s precinct realignments and adequately communicate the problems to the state board.

“This was a difficult decision,” he said. “But it was taken because we felt, under her leadership, voter confidence in the process has deteriorated. We want to restore that and we don’t be-

Parking lot closings push drivers to outskirts of campus IM lots will reopen today with new gates

By TIM MILLINGTON The Chronicle

No one thought parking would be abundant when the Ocean evaporated this May, but with more lot closures around West Campus this summer, the parking pool is even drier than some students and employees had anticipated.

“As of this moment, lots Edens B [the shelf lot], Card Gym [the Cameron lotj, IM-1, IM-3, IM-5 and IM-7... are temporarily closed,” said Parking Services Manager Chuck Landis.

Officials say renovations currently under way will improve safety and efficiency when students return to campus this August.

The most noticeable changes will come to the Cameron lot, said Thomas Faulkner, project manager for renovations in the Department of Construction Administration.

“Where previously there were three entrances, we’re narrowing them down to one with a card reader and a gate,” Faulkner said.

Administrators changed the lot’s designation from W to RT in April.

The shelf lot—on the corner ofTowerview and Wannamaker drives—is also being fitted with a gate and card-reader.

Renovations to the other campus lots are more routine.

The IM lots—located on Wannamaker Drive near Wallace Wade Stadium—are being resurfaced and re-painted, and additional lights are being installed for night-time security.

Faulkner said IM lots 1, 3, 5 and 7 are scheduled to reopen today.

Renovation on lots 2, 4 and 6 will begin after work on the Cameron and shelflots is completed around July 7, he added.

Although parking is a little tighter than usual, Landis said there are no plans to ease the temporary crunch.

“The lots which remain open seem to have enough spaces for the students and employees who have cars on campus over the summer,” Landis said.

Administrators say there has been no increase in parking violations since construction to the lots began.

‘There has been a decrease in ticket volume since the lots have been closed but then that is normal for the summer,” said Karen Lynch, an office coordinator in parking enforcement. “The enforcement officers are aware of the conditions and are proceeding accordingly.”

Most summer students—many of whom live on Central Campus during the summer, a short walk or bus ride from West Campus—said the parking situation was not a concern.

Some employees, accustomed to abundant parking while the student population is low, are less content.

“I’m not happy that they closed off Cameron for the summer. We were looking forward to being able to park there,” said Ruth Maxwell, who works in the Gothic Bookshop.

But she said she has come to terms with the temporary setback.

“I’ve got my anger under control,” she joked.

“It’s not that bad.”

Senate favors Colombia aid package The funds would aid Colombia in its efforts to combat drug trafficking

By ERIC SCHMITT

N.Y. Times News Service

WASHINGTON

The Senate

on Wednesday night endorsed an aid package of nearly $1 billion to help Colombia equip and train security forces to combat drug traffickers in a country where the narcotics trade and guerrilla

insurgency support each other.

While the Senate delayed final passage of the legislation containing the aid until Thursday, that outcome was not in doubt, and senators completed work on the portions of the bill dealing with Colombia.

The Senate has now set aside a total of almost $1.3 billion for assistance to Colombia over the next

two years, counting $3OO million in an earlier military bill. In late March, the House approved $1.7 billion over two years in emergency spending for the nation, one of Washington’s most important Latin American allies.

Anticipating Wednesday’s votes, House and Senate Republican leaders met Wednesday morning to discuss how to reconcile the two competing versions, which have several crucial differences, so that an aid package could be approved before the July 4 recess.

In recent weeks, both President Bill Clinton and President Andres Pastrana of Colombia have ap-

rush passage of an anti-drug plan to help Colombia and other Andean nations. The plan is backed by top Republican leaders like House Speaker Dennis Hastert and Sen. Paul Coverdell of Georgia.

“Colombia is the heart of the drug war and we’d better get on with it,” Coverdell said. “If we lose in Colombia, then we lose everywhere.”

But critics argued in debate Wednesday that the aid package would ensnare the United States in an open-ended conflict that has claimed tens of thousands of lives over the past 40 years.

“The capacity of this body for self-delusion appears to this sena-

pealed to congressional leaders to

Human genome researchers reach truce

By NICHOLAS WADE N.Y. Times News Service

After months of fitful negotiation that seemed to flame out in a final angry exchange in February, the two sides racing to decode the human DNA have contrived a last-minute truce. The first element of the resurrected pact is likely to be a joint announcement next week of the effective completion of the genome.

Although it is too late for a pooling of DNA sequencing efforts, the truce will include agreement for the competitors to publish their genome findings in the same issue of a journal.

It may also provide for a joint annotation of the genome, the critical process of identifying the location

and role of the genes on the genome. Should the two sides cooperate in such an interpretation of their data, a step that has at least been under discussion, the truce could develop into a broader pact.

The truce also implies a cessation of public criticisms between the two parties, the Celera Corp. of Rockville, Md., and an international consortium of academic centers supported largely by the National Institutes of Health and the Wellcome Trust, a London philanthropy.

The institutes and the trust declined to discuss the deal, but the trust has said it will hold a news conference on the human genome next Monday, and sources close to Celera say a joint news conference will be held at the White House.

Culture deters female MBAs A University of Michigan study shows that female business students nationwide have few chances for interaction with female professors.

By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle While women may be breaking the glass ceiling in many areas, their numbers remain dispropor-

tionately low in business.

A recent study conducted by the University of Michigan found that common misperceptions of business culture may be the reason women stay out of the corporate world.

“Women were telling us it didn’t seem clear that business offers the type of creativity and opportunity they’re looking for, but business is not like that anymore,” said Keith Decie, an assistant dean at the University of Michigan’s business school. “[Underrepresentation] comes down to a number of issues, but most notably awareness is not high enough. Women are less aware ofwhat business school is.”

The study polled more than 1,600 male and female students from 20 business schools around the nation about their experiences before and during business school. The Fuqua School ofBusiness was included in the survey.

“A overwhelming number of women were overwhelmingly satisfied with their business school experience,” said Decie, who is also Michigan’s director ofplanning, marketing and public relations.

“But there are still parts of the equation we need to work out.”

Administrators at Duke have been concerned about underrepresention for some time, said Liz Riley, Fuqua’s admissions director. Riley said that See WOMEN IN BUSINESS on page 19

Task force examines summer academics

By STEVEN WRIGHT The Chronicle

Since the spring 1999 approval of Curriculum 2000, the need for an academically heartier summer session and more foreign language classes was clear.

Now, a task force that has been evaluating summer session hopes to take care of both issues.

The committee was designed to study the effects of Curriculum 2000 on summer school, and it has recommended that the summer session begin to offer a language-intensive study program, but only after a comprehensive review of summer financial aid is completed.

“Most of the members of the task force felt strongly that additional financial aid and some restriction placed upon domestic transfer credits would be critical to changing the nature of Duke summer session,” said Paula Gilbert, task force chair. “We looked at a lot of things—historical summer enrollmentpatterns at Duke, area of knowledge and department designations for courses transferred to Duke from domestic institutions.”

Dean of Trinity College Robert Thompson said he will not take action until the ongoing review of financial aid policy is completed. The University’s current financial aid packages provide for only eight semesters of academic work.

Further complicating matters is the transitional pe-

riod that will create two academic groups at the University—those governed by the new curriculum and those under the current one.

“The next two summers, we will have a mix of students—some governed by the old and some by the new curriculum—and we will want to offer courses that serve both groups,” said Gilbert. “We will especially try to offer courses that will satisfy requirements for certain areas of knowledge and either focused inquiry or mode of inquiry.... The changes will not be all that numerous or obvious.”

This discrepancy will hamper officials’ efforts to accurately estimate the level of summer enrollment next year, but Thompson said the University will offer special programs in the first few years regardless of class size.

“We may have to have some classes with lower enrollment in the first few years, but we’re prepared to make that investment,” he said.

Work may soon begin on developing additional math and statistics courses and an immersion-based language program that will allow students to complete their language proficiency requirement during the summer.

“We thought that students will decide to satisfy the emerging language requirement,” he said. “The general sense has been increase the languages, specifically immersion courses in Spanish and French.”

Brain Attack Coalition offers stroke center recommendations After reviewing decades of medical research, a new study emphasized rapid and expert treatment of stroke patients

lead author and an associate professor of neurology.

In an article in the most recent edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association, the group presented the results of their study, which reviewed more than 600 MEDLINE articles.

The articles, ranging in publication dates from 1966 to 2000, presented evidence from randomized clinical trials, care guidelines, meta-analyses and other proposals for treating patients with acute stroke.

After an initial review of the selected articles, Alberts and his team submitted a list of recommendations to the coalition. The BAG discussed each recommendation and reached a consensus before adding it to the final list.

“Studies have shown that if you’re going to do a good job in treating stroke patients, there are two things that make a difference: time and expertise,” said Alberts. “If patients can be rapidly treated and with expertise, it will help a lot.”

BAG officials hope that establishing stroke centers will allow hospitals to do just that.

Alberts added that many hospitals, including Duke, already have stroke centers in place, while others are close to creating their own.

“In one recent study, 66 percent of hospitals surveyed did not have stroke protocols and 82 percent did not have

rapid identification for patients experiencing acute stroke,” the team wrote in

the article.

The team found that key elements for improving patient care in stroke centers include the existence of acute stroke teams, stroke units, written care protocols and an integrated response system.

Necessary support services include the availability and interpretation of computed tomography scans 24 hours a day as well as the availability of rapid laboratory testing.

The team also found that administrative support, strong leadership and continuing education of the staff are important factors in a primary stroke center’s success.

While the team was clear that trauma and stroke centers should follow dif-

ferent models, it also used the existing model of a trauma center to illustrate some ofits recommendations.

“The trauma center concept grew in part due to the high number of avoidable deaths in patients who experience

The Raleigh City Council gave the go-ahead for a proposed IMAX theater in the city’s downtown Tuesday.

The theater—which will be attached to the Exploris museum—faced criticism from Mayor Paul Coble and some council members, who said private funds should cover the facility’s $11.9 million price tag.

The council approved hotel and meals tax funding for the plan in a 5-3 vote after attaching several conditions, including a public bidding process and a moratorium on future Exploris requests for hotel and meals tax money.

A Durham IMAX theater is also planned, but it would show commercial

Twelve from Duke receive Fulbrights Police catch bike thieves fit <zScfiotax± J

By AMBIKA KUMAR

DIME'S

The Chronicle

It’s a small world after all—at least for the group of nine recent Trinity graduates and three graduate students who have been awarded J. William Ful-

bright scholarships.

Most of the scholars will travel across the world next year, studying in countries ranging from Japan to Ethiopia.

“This is a really stellar group of students,” said Rob Sikorski, acting director of International Studies. “If you look at the names... you’re seeing some of

Duke’s brightest students.”

Sikorski said that the number of winners this year—although only two more than last year—represents a significant change in the acceptance rate for Duke students. Twenty-two percent of Duke’s Fulbright applicants received the prestigious scholarships last year. This year’s percentage jumped to 34, but one student, Robert Rozenthal, declined the scholarship.

Another recipient has not yet responded to the offer.

Sikorski also pointed out that this year’s winners are “slightly more adventurous” in terms of the locations in which they will study.

Romania will be the destination for Colin Williams, Trinity ’OO, who will study the effect of the country’s media on the political process.

Lack of evidence dooms election complainants’ case -

Late last week, the board finally

That board, scheduled to meet in early July, will have the final jurisdiction over the vote.

After hearing five hours of witness testimony and arguments, the majority members’ final statements, which repeatedly cited the complainants’ lack of evidence, emphasized a discrepancy that was noticeable all along.

“The numbers we have don’t suggest that had we complied with the law, the election’s outcome would have been different,” said Gregory, who was joined in his decision by board chair Jane Ryan.

‘There is not substantial evidence that the violations were sufficiently serious

to cast doubt on the results of the election. I believe in a hearing of this sort, the onus is upon the complainants to bring evidence that justifies a new election. I fail to see that evidence.”

The two sides employed vastly different strategies, with Paul Miller’s attorneys, led by Greensboro’s George Hunter, presenting an evidence-based

case and the complainants arguing more philosophically.

Hunter, former chair of the state board of elections, and his co-counsel examined the board’s witnesses and many of their own with evidence-based sequences intended to prove that the number of voters affected was not sufficient to change the outcome of the election, and that a $35,000 reelection was not worth the money.

Eugene Brown, a complainant who argued on behalf of the other complainants, emphasized the illegalities in voter notifications and house district as-

agreed that 4,600 registered voters were moved to new precincts and not lawfully notified of the change; 3,733 were Democrats or unaffiliated and were eligible to vote in this election.

Seven hundred and thirty-two eligible voters were illegally moved into or out of House District 23.

The complainants never attempted to enter any figures into the court’s record.

They did not call any witnesses who could testify that the mistakes in precinct change notification or implementation NEAL PATEL/THE CHRONICLE

Brown, who flew to New York for a week-long trip Wednesday morning, could not be reached for comment.

Mary D.B.T. Semans, a complainant and former University trustee, said, “I thought Eugene Brown was exceptional. We did not have an attorney. I’m sure that had something to do with [the

outcome!”

Gregory confirmed Wednesday that the lack of evidence played a large part in his decision, but said the decision was not swayed by “hot-shot attorneys.”

Board member Melvin, who spent the

last hour of the Tuesday meeting tensely poring over evidence, did not reveal her position until the very end of her

minutes-long speech.

“If you look at the raw numbers, I

would have to concur, it’s probably not sufficient grounds to call for a reelection, but when you look at the number of mistakes that we have made, one has to worry about the overall impact we may have had in the May 2 elections,” she said. “We’re going to mess over somebody no matter how you shake it. I would be inclined to call for a new election.”

All along, the 13 complainants have argued that the election should be overturned because of the tarnished

“Last night was on the numbers, and it was frustrating because some of us feel that a flawed process is bad for the voting public,” Semans said Wednesday.

“If they are able to get away with that, it could proliferate. People are cynical about voting and government already.

This creates more ofthat Elections director Booth said Wednesday afternoon that she was never nervous about the hearing’s outcome and would take the results of Wednesday night’s hearing in stride.

‘There is a huge group of folks who weren’t heard from—Bo percent of the electorate who didn’t vote and the people who aren’t registered,” she said.

“These people would have to pay for a new election. I did make some mistakes but I would hate for someone else to pay for my mistakes.” ”

tor to be unlimited,” said Sen. Slade Gorton, R-Wash.

“There has been no consideration of the consequences, cost and length of involvement. This bill says, let’s get into war now and justify it later.”

The decisive votes Wednesday came on two amendments to reduce or shift some of the $934 million earmarked this year and next for Colombia in a foreign aid bill.

By 89-11, the Senate defeated an amendment by Sen. Paul Wellstone, D-Minn., to transfer $225 million in aid from the Colombia military to drug treatment and prevention programs in the United States. The Senate then defeated an amendment by Gorton to cut the aid package to $2OO million, from $934 million.

That vote was 79-19.

Gen. Barry McCaffrey, the White House drug poli-

cy director, released a statement Wednesday anticipating the overall bill’s final approval on Thursday: “The Senate’s work is a crucial step toward final congressional approval of the package that will greatly enhance counter-drug efforts in Colombia and neighboring Andean countries in their struggle against illicit production and trafficking, and drug-funded criminal organizations.”

In debate this week, senators have not disputed that the United States must help Colombia, which is the source of 90 percent of the cocaine and 65 percent of the heroin seized in this country.

But critics have warned that Washington was being pulled more deeply into a convoluted civil conflict in which two leftist guerrilla armies are fighting the government, right-wing paramilitary forces are fighting the guerrillas, guerrillas are providing paid

protection to drug traffickers and civilians are trapped in the middle.

“I recognize that Colombia is a country in crisis,” said Sen. Russell Feingold, D-Wis. “But we’re not walking into this scheme with our eyes wide open.”

The backbone of the aid package is an armada of helicopters and more than $5OO million for the Colombian army and police, all of which would be used to train and equip three battalions for antidrug operations.

A major difference between the House and Senate bills is the helicopter of choice. The House package includes 30 Blackhawk helicopters, which have longer range and can carry more troops than the 60 Huey helicopters that the Senate approved. The Blackhawks cost $12.8 million each, according to administration figures, as opposed to $l.B million each for the Hueys.

Digging up some

by Jonas Blank

Sonic Classics The quintessential New York band, Sonic Youth, brings its moody, dynamic show to the Triangle this weekend.

North Carolina may be a long way from New York, but Sonic Youth will make it seem like you're in the heart of the Village this Saturday night.

Long known as the quintessential New York band, Sonic Youth is taking that designation up a notch on its 2000 tour. Their new repertoire leans heavily on songs from the recently released NYC Ghosts and Flowers while unearthing classics of the band's two-decade career that haven't gotten much play in the last five years.

On this tour, the band plays against a backdrop of continuous hand-held video camera shots of New York.

The sights aren't spectacular; it's a stream of long, long shots of busy streets or disconnected people sitting next to each other on subways. While the visuals hardly overwhelm the music, they give it a renewed sense of brooding that makes the noise seem at home.

NYC Ghosts and Flowers combines a distinctly urban sense of personal distance with the fever of human proximity, as if everyone is in the same room, but nobody knows each other. Incredibly loose even for Sonic Youth, the songs give band members room to explore single chords, noodle with feedback or even meditate on a solitary note for awhile. Many of the lyrics are beat-esque, composed of fragmentary sentences or random words.

Strange though it is, the band makes the new material work on-stage, somehow channeling the chaotic energy of the new material without the pop framework prevalent on earlier albums from Daydream Nation to 1994's Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star.

Along with the new songs, the older classics hold up as nicely as usual. "Death Valley '69," an early, obscure rocker from Bad Moon Rising, has been a typical set closer, as it was in 1998. In Washington, D.C. earlier this week, the band played old favorites like "Tom Violence," and "Cotton Crown," as well as the only song they could ever legitimately call a hit, "100%." Most of their previous two albums, 1998's A Thousand Leaves and 1995's Washing Machine have been ignored on this tour, with the sets favoring songs from 1988 and before, coupled with new material Part of the reason for the band's new approach—including its choice of setlists—is what band members deem an unintended inspiration; the theft of a truck full of their equipment during their last tour. Much of their

theft. Without the ability to re-create what they were doing for their past two albums, the band was forced to change, In concert, the end result is dynamic. While some of the new material may leave more pop-oriented fans in the cold, the brash new material is balanced by the older, more straightforward songs. In 1998, the band seemed on autopilot at times, with a largely set repertoire of songs from their latest album sprinkled with one or two older tunes. Though they sounded great, the band looked bored.

With the all-new setlists and the addition of guitarist Jim O'Rourke, today's Sonic Youth looks more energized—and sounds more innovative—han most bands half their age.

So if you make it to the Ritz this weekend, don't plan to be bored. After all, sullen detachment is something only a New Yorker can appreciate. □

The King of All Media?

Short-sighted pundits have called Shaquille O'Neal the greatest basketball player of all time, but it's the bigboned bailer's activities off the court that really set him apart. Most current and former bigego basketball stars have extracurricular projects, from endorsing shoes to running mediocre restaurants in Chapel Hill. But the oafish offensive machine has surpassed them all, with entertainment projects ranging from video games (Shaq-Fu) to albums (three, plus a greatest hits) to movies.

And unlike his basketball, public opinion of Shag's entertainment ventures ranges from middling to downright nasty. One reader review on the Internet Movie Database called 1996's Kazaam "not even entertaining on a stupid level," while an angry parent implored of the site: "Please, I beg of you, don't subject them to this. Zero is too high of a rating for this, I can't rate it." Perhaps the Washington Post summed it up best: "In essence, crow the critics, he's a terrible actor."

Shag's hip-hop efforts >n't fared much better, lebut album pulls an ;mal 2-star rating out llmusic.com, though :ain’s famed weekly ME called it "splenid." We're not really re what to make of hat, frankly, though, jiven the number of decent British hip-hop records (near zero) we're not sure the redcoats are the best judges.

One thing's for sure: Shaq may not have an equal on the court, but his lyrical stylings stack up well against some other famous rappers.

Wilco (elektra)

When we think of Woody Guthrie it usually has to do with memories of learning “This Land is Your Land, This Land is My Land" for a grade school assembly. The Mermaid Avenue project seeks to show' us another side of the legendary folk singer, claiming that he is also our first alternative musician.

The project started in the mid-'9os when Guthrie's daughter approached Billy Bragg, whose roots are in punk, about performing some of the more ri than 2,000 song lyrics held in the si Woody Guthrie Archive. The Brit .X agreed and got Alterna-country & rockers Wilco to join. The fir posthumous collaboration t&i Guthrie, who provides between the lyrics, and a new generation of musicians writing the music results in an intriguing listening experience.

Guthrie proves that he thought about more than beautiful landscapes on songs such as "Stetson Kennedy," a protest against war profiteering and "All You Fascists" {in which Bragg repeatedly rants over several guitars and a harmonica that "you fascists bound to lose."). Fans who felt the first album lacked pop will be pleased with the snappy "Secret of the as well as Natalie Merchant's return on playful ditty "1 Was B As far as future volu go, don't expect this to the last MermaidAvert Says Bragg: "When [Guthrie] died, the mus he had written for thes songs died with him.

The Chronicle

Established 1905, Incorporated 1993

Seating switch

year, the Athletic Department tackled a dilemma it has not

faced since the dreary winter of 1994-95: empty bleachers in Cameron Indoor Stadium’s student section during men’s basketball games. Undergraduate attendance was less-than-perfect at several pivotal contests this year. Meanwhile, the Graduate and Professional Student Council has lobbied for years to gain more Cameron spots for its constituents. Earlier this summer, athletics officials put two and two together, transferring 100 spots from the undergraduate to the graduate section.

Although administrators say the move was prompted by poor attendance at several games, undergraduates should not view the reassignment as a punishment or a challenge to their school spirit.

Clashes with the University of North Carolina aside, Cameron is seldom full at tip-time; undergraduates who line up even an hour before games are still virtually guaranteed places. Students who decide to join the crowd late after spotting empty seats on television may be thwarted, but even they have little reason to complain.

Undergraduates continue to outnumber graduate students in Cameron by a sizable margin, despite the fact that undergraduates make up little more than half of Duke’s student body, and athletics officials say the reassigned seats will be returned if attendance improves in 2000-01.

But the reallocation is more than just away of putting bodies in seats. Fans in the graduate student section increasingly outshine many of the undergraduate Crazies in creativity and enthusiasm picture, for example, the hundreds of mug shots that greeted Ed Cota as he stepped to the free-throw line during this year’s Carolina game.

Perhaps graduate students whoremember a Blue Devil team winning just 13 games are more likely to savor a routine mid-season victory than undergraduates weaned on 30-win seasons.

Blue Devil basketball belongs to all Duke students—after all, the NCAA’s four years of eligibility extend into graduate school even though few graduate students have time for varsity athletics. If there were no aspiring engineers on the team, should the University restrict ticket assignments to favor Trinity students?

Faced with apparent evidence of flagging student interest in Blue Devil basketball, administrators deserve credit for resisting the temptation to fill empty spaces with donors who would gladly pay tens of thousands of dollars for courtside seats. Graduate students do pay for their season tickets, but the money raised by 100 new graduate spots could easily have been recovered from a single wellheeled alumnus.

Cameron’s unique student section stems from an unwritten deal between athletics officials and students: Noisily propel the Blue Devils to victory and in return you get the best seats in the house. It is gratifying that administrators are still willing to meet their end of the bargain even though the Cameron Crazies fell short at crucial moments this season.

Cameron’s famous “sixth man” faltered against Maryland and St. John’s last season. A large, rowdier—and slightly older—crowd just might have made the difference.

Someone deserves those unfilled seats, and I think the graduate students are a worthy group to receive them. As a member of the Duke pep band from 19961998, I sat across from the graduate students for years and sometimes found them uninspired. But in recent years, I’ve noticed the graduate students have become increasingly creative and enthusiastic—after all, where would we be without the Shaolin monks and the Great Cornholio?

Juan Battle reinforcing the stereotype of Duke students as whiny and ungrateful.

Sure, Juan might have gone to every Duke game when he was an undergrad. But the fact of the matter is that several important home games last year found the student section of Cameron unfilled, and that’s just not right.

Duke undergrads receive what most people only dream about —a free season pass to watch the world’s best college basketball team.

The point of filling Cameron is to increase the “home-team advantage” the Crazies are famous for. The graduate students never fail to fill their section, which is small in proportion to their overall population.

I think the action taken in this matter is the only obvious solution, and I commend the athletic department for making it.

By the way, I am always available to fill extra space in Cameron—should the need arise.

Case three: The Durham County Republican Party is afraid to run as such.

This county is currently in the midst of cobbling together a plan to merge city and county governments. Essentially all political groups in town are attempting to compromise. The issues include designing a governing body and an electoral system that allows those groups to preserve, or improve, their influence.

The local Republican leaders, because they are out-numbered in party registration, are adamantly opposed to partisan elections. They ignore the fact that split-ticket voting is allowed, and is in truth more common now than at any time in North Carolina history. A high-

ranking local Republican official declared that partisan elections “aren’t

miss well-documented advantages of partisan elections; increased voter turnout, improved representation of both segregated and dispersed ethnic and economic minorities and a public well-informed as to the ideology and objectives of all the candidates.

As The Herald-Sun of Durham editorialized recently, the Republicans seem to want to run as stealth candidates.

The Republican party seems to be hiding from its true motivations, suppressing internal dissent, and even unwilling to face the voters openly.

We can only hope that all this will change. For it would indeed be a shame, for that party—and for our democracy—if the Republican Party becomes “the Party that dare not speak its name.”

Reality worth watching On the prowl Kelly Woo In this week’s episode, the Bowler family—dad Paul,

mom Joyce, 17-year-old Kathryn, 11-year-old twins Hilary and Ruth and 9-year-old Joe-move into their new home. At the beginning, they marvel over the quaint antique items—the coal stove, the furniture, the chamberpots. But as the episode continues, those antiques become their worst nightmare. Joyce discovers that the once-cute stove will not heat the pipes enough to produce a hot bath. That same stove won’t cook properly, so little Joe won’t eat any ofthe food. Dad nearly kills himself as he shaves with a straight-edge razor.

Eventually, after making another disastrous dinner,

mom Joyce—who got them into this whole affair throws a hissy, stomps out into the backyard and begins to weep. “I didn’t think it’d be as bad as this,” she cries into her apron.

Oh, it’s not as bad as this, it gets even worse. Later in the episode, Joyce must undertake the laundry. For an entire day, she and the other ladies of the house soak, boil, scrub, rinse, wring and hang their laundry all by hand. When they’re done, Joyce’s hands are raw and dry. On top of that, she has to make her own moisturizer, from a 1900 recipe, out of wax. This puts those Survivor castaways and their freely available sun-

been made into a game show. But 1900 House challenges us to think about living our normal, daily lives without the conveniences we now depend on. I get impatient if I can’t check my e-mail five times a day; would I survive in the Bowler house, without any electricity at all? It was amazing to see how much society has progressed in 100 years. Most of us have all the hot water we want (and more), while the Bowler women go crazy because they can’t get clean. We’ve got TVs, telephones and stereos; the Bowlers have the mailman. Our icy refrigerators can store food for days, even months, and when we want to eat, we just pop a meal into the microwave and it is ready in seconds. But by the end of the episode, the family still

screen, to shame.

Now this is the stuff ofreal survival. The concept of being stranded on a deserted island is so unreal, that it s

hasn’t quite figured out the stove. The Bowlers must deal with corsets, strange food items and a lot of boredom.

That was the worst: Fun and entertainment is something we expect every day. But for people in 1900, especially women, entertainment is a rare thing. Joyce gets depressed because she finds her life to be excruciatingly dull. In 1999, Joyce works as a schoolteacher. But women in 1900 did not have jobs; they stayed home and kept house. Joyce’s days are now filled with cleaning and cooking. She enviously watches her husband leave the house every day to go to work. As she undertakes a day of laundry, he goes

to the barber for a proper shave. Her frustration is keenly felt.

But Joyce is determined to make the best of it, and rebels against the restrictions placed on her by becoming a suffragette. She decides to stop wearing undergarments, reasoning that women would not have worn them every day because it’s too much to wash. As for fun, her family pulls together to provide some for her birthday—the kids make a cake and Paul buys her a couple of chickens (eggs were very expensive in 1900). Joyce is delighted with it, and as she blows out her candles (with the first real smile on her face since she moved in), she marvels at how resourceful her family has become. She now sees them, and herself, in a “whole new light.” And

though they cannot count on watching Survivor to entertain them, the Bowlers learned to count on themselves.

Even better, they’ve learned to do it with modernity just outside the door. 1900 House is authentic because it does not mask the fact that the whole situation is contrived. The modern world’s presence is always felt lurking at the edges, as nearby as the neighbor’s house, as close as the comer convenience store. In next week’s episode, the Bowler women try to sneak an illegal purchase of shampoo into the house. 1900 House does not pretend to have the Bowlers really fight for their lives.

As one of the eliminated castaways on Survivor said, he should have remembered it was a gameshow, not true survival. Instead of focusing on winning the prize, he concentrated too much on making a life out of a miserable situation, which is exactly what the Bowlers must do. What makes 1900 House a better survival show is that it deals with the struggle ofreal living.

America and served on the School Improvement Committee.

Family funds faculty research: Funded by Barbara and Randall Smith of New York, three faculty members will take one semester off and receive $5,000 each to research three new disciplinary areas.

James Clark, professor of biology and earth and ocean sciences, said he hopes to do basic research that will allow for new computer models to forecast global ecological change. Daniel Gauthier, associate professor of physics, will work with Duke bioengineers, physicists and mathematicians to investigate the physics of the human heart. Ralph Litzinger, assistant professor of cultural anthropology, will travel to China to study the actions of non-governmental organizations on environmental protection. The Smiths are giving the University $500,000 over five years to facilitate research in new areas by Duke faculty.

University gives annual grants to young artists: The University has awarded 21 undergraduates the Edward H. Benenson award. The annual award, which offers recipients as

much as $3,000, is intended to encourage artistic development. This year’s award winners include: Trinity sophomores Frances Hsieh and Porangui McGrew; Trinity seniors Kelvin Black and Kristin Posehn; and recent graduates James Boyda, Andrea Davey, Jessica Ebright, Eamonn Farrell, Michael Gause, Steve Heasley, Achjut Joshi, Emera Krauss, Sonwha Lee, Laxmi Modali, Melanie Moyer, Grainne Murphy, Leslie Pritchard, Isham Randolph, James Sink, Alexis Thomas and Jason Wagner, a Chronicle at-large editorial board member.

Duke-United Way partnership will present 13 grants: The Duke

United Way University-Triangle Community Partnership will award a total of $60,000 to 13 local organizations.

These funds were raised by University employees and donated to the local United Way. Some of the largest grants were given to St. James Baptist Church, St. John’s Baptist Church and DukeDurham Partners for Youth.

The partnership received 17 requests for $130,333 in funding this year and is responsible for allocating some of the donations on an annual basis.

Vice chair notes faculty’s importance in VP search

VP SEARCH from page 1 since the February acknowledgment that a student’s November death was related to drinking.

The committee chair appointments come two months after Dickerson’s announcement that she would leave this summer for Princeton University.

John Burness, senior vice president for public relations and government relations, said this time frame is standard.

“The announcement came so close to the end of the school year that it became difficult to start the search before [the summer],” he said.

The committee will aim to have a list of finalists by spring 2000, and the University could fill the position by next summer, said Nowicki, who will serve as vice-chair.

“We’re looking for someone who is going to be able to both show strong leadership on key issues and also bring in a lot of constituencies... and be able to talk to people across the University on all levels,”

Nowicki said.

Haltom, who was named committee chair, could not be reached for comment, as she is out of town this week.

Although Nowicki said he could not speak on behalf of the as-yet-unformed committee, he thinks the next vice president should be able to cater to the in-

terests of many groups, including members of the faculty. “You might say we really don’t want to get just an amateur who doesn’t have any experience in student affairs,” he said.

“On the other hand,” Nowicki added, “you can become too professionalized [and] get disconnected from some of the constituencies in the University. I think it’s very likely the top candidates will be people who have some credentials in student affairs but I certainly would not say that that’s going to be a litmus test.”

And as the division of student affairs has become increasingly distinct from other departments in the University, Allison Haltom Nowicki said he hopes other faculty will take an active role in the process. “[Keohane] correctly thinks the faculty really have to get on board with this,” said Nowicki. “It’s essential.... One of the things we want to improve upon at Duke is the disconnection between student affairs and student life and academic affairs and academic life.”

Since Dickerson’s April announcement that she would head to Princeton in July, many students and

administrators have speculated that several internal candidates —including Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Sue Wasiolek and Dean of Student Development Barbara Baker—will probably apply for the vacant job.

Nowicki said internal applicants will be scrutinized in the same way as external ones, and that the next vice president should come from a school similar

to Duke.

Duke Student Government President Jordan Bazinsky and former Graduate and Professional Student Council President Tomalei Vess submitted lists of potential committee members. The student leaders, however, will not play a role in actually selecting the individual members.

GPSC Attorney General Carol Chancey, a thirdyear graduate student in biomedical engineering who was on GPSC’s list, said she has not heard anything about the search committee.

She was interested in the position because she thinks replacing Dickerson with an equally capable successor will be a difficult task.

“I think maybe we need someone who’s a strong individual, ready to look at the challenges,” Chancey said. “We need somebody ready to go forward... [who’s] definitely ready to address and not just waver back and forth.”

Unknown suspect steals $649 from Alpine Atrium P POLICE REPORTS from page 7

1 p.m. June 16 and 3:45 p.m. June 19, someone stole her $5OO gold Sintraper bicycle, which she had left secured at the East Campus rack. Also, between 11 a.m.

May 23 and 5 p.m. June 17, someone stole a student’s $6OO blue Hard Rock Specialized bicycle, which had been left secured at the same place.

Cash swiped from Alpine Atrium: An employee

reported that between sometime June 5 and 11:35 a.m.

June 9 someone stole $649 cash from the safe located in the Bryan Center’s Alpine Atrium, Dean said. There were no signs of forced entry.

Money taken: An employee reported June 20 that between 1:30 and 3:15 p.m., someone stole $433 from her bookbag. She had left the bag unsecured in the business office ofHardee’s in Duke Clinic, Dean said.

Car stereo filched: Someone stole an employee’s $l5O car CD player between 2 and 6 a.m. June 16, Dean said. The car, parked in the lot off of Duke University Road and across from the Chapel Hill extension, had its right and left door locks punched out, causing $l5O damage.

Another bike stolen: A student reported that between 4 and 9:30 p.m. June 11, someone stole his $2OO gray Lotus 10-speed, 26-inch frame bicycle with

drop-down handlebars and yellow handle bar grips, Dean said. The bike was parked and secured in the bicycle rack near the Bryan Center traffic circle.

Cell phone pilfered: Between 2 and 7 p.m. June 19, someone stole an $BO navy blue Nokia cell phone, serial number 25221909426155, and $2O cash from an employee’s purse. The employee left her bag in an unsecured locker in the nurse’s lounge on the seventh floor of Duke Hospital.

Employee charges colleague with assault: A female employee reported that a male employee, who works for environmental services, rubbed her leg while they were in an office in the subbasement of Duke Hospital at 12:45 p.m. June 16, Dean said. She obtained a warrant on the man, 38 year-old John Williams of 2518 Dearborn Dr., for assault.

Man arrested for heroin possession: Campus Police officers arrested a man they found using heroin in the Emergency Department parking lot at 12:48 a.m. June 4, Dean said.

The man, 29-year-old Brady Jay Bordelon of 181 Spruce Court in Timberlake, N.C., was charged with possession of heroin and drug paraphernalia that included two small bundles of heroin.

The man was placed under a $2,500 secured bond and has a court date set for June 5.

Suspect in sexual harassment case tres-

passed:

A man who was seen looking up a woman’s

shorts in Perkins Library June 3 was trespassed from campus June 4 after a witness to the June 3 incident identified him in Perkins, Dean said.

At 4:50 p.m. June 3, a visitor saw a man lying on the floor between two shelves on the second floor.

She said his leg was shaking as he looked around the edge of a shelf and up the shorts of a woman studying in a nearby carrel.

The victim appeared to be unaware of the perpetrator’s activity.

The man noticed the witness, got up and walked down a nearby staircase, Dean said.

Campus Police checked the area but could not find the man or the victim.

The next day, the witness noticed the man in the library around 3:55 p.m.

She then notified police, who stopped the man in the lobby ofPerkins and trespassed him from campus.

Dean said DUPD cannot charge the man with anything else until they find the victim.

“When something like this is happening, get to a safe place and call Duke police so we can get into the area and investigate as soon as possible,” Dean said.

A similar incident was reported May 6, and Dean said that both incidents probably involved the same perpetrator, despite discrepancies in the witnesses’

descriptions.

Fuqua recruits women aggressively Scholars prepare VVOMKN IN BUSINESS from page 3 Riley said that the business school has collaborated with Yale University, Michigan and New York University to hold events designed to attract female applicants.

“We have a pretty aggressive marketing and recruitment plan that we hope will appeal to women,” said Riley, adding that Fuqua’s unique culture has also helped the school attract female applicants. “[Fuqua] is an extremely supportive environment. We have a very collaborative approach to education which may appeal more strongly to women.”

Several female Fuqua students agreed. “My Fuqua experience has been great,” said second-year business student Sarah Helm, president of the Fuqua Association of Women in Business. “One of the main reasons I chose to attend Fuqua was the team-

based learning environment, and the environment has proven to be just that.”

Although many women who responded to the Michigan survey said they were pleased with their experiences, many said business schools still have a long way to go before they are completely welcoming to women, who make up one-third of all business students.

More than half of female survey respondents said they could not relate to case studies, whereas twothirds of the men said they could. Sixty-one percent of women said that they did not have adequate opportunities to work with female professors, and 27 percent said they found their environment to be overly aggressive and competitive.

The University of Michigan’s business school collaborated on the study with Catalyst Women and Michigan’s Center for the Education ofWomen.

It was perfect to try to go there.”

The OIT Futures Forum on May 25 addressed a topic of increasing interest to the Duke community: wireless networking. The forum provided commentary from groups with hands-on experience installing wireless local area networks (LANs) in such places as the Bryan Center, DUMC, and Fuqua.

What is wireless networking? In general, wireless networking refers to the transmission of data between computers by radio wave. Common examples of wireless technology in use today include the Global Positioning System (GPS), cellular phones and pagers, remote garage-door openers, and baby monitors.

A wireless LAN is designed to extend or replace a wired LAN connection to mobile computer users over short distances, for example, within a single building or hallway. With wireless LANs, a mobile computer user connects to a network by means of access points (devices the size of a cordless phone’s base station), which are installed in various locations around a site and connected to an Ethernet hub or server. The access points send a radio frequency over an area of several hundred feet. The mobile user is able to stay connected while signals from the roaming device are handed offfrom one access point to another. A special card installed in the roaming device acts as a modem.

A few groups at Duke—namely, OIT, CITI, and Fuqua—have already tested wireless LANs with varying degrees of success. (CITI is the Center for Information Technology Innovation; see www.citi.duke.edu.) OIT has piloted wireless hardware in such settings as Krzyzewskiville and the Bryan Center; CITI has installed a network in Duke North; and Fuqua has experimented with a wireless LAN at its main site. The upshot of the OIT pilots has been to continue with more experimentation: The wireless LAN in the Bryan Center will be upgraded this summer; theLSRC cafeteria and Perkins Library will be tested later this year.

When will you be able to roam around Duke and stay connected seamlessly and securely no matter where you go? No one knows for sure because no one can predict where wireless technology is headed. None of the competing wireless standards has yet emerged as the clear winner, and with no dominant standard in place, vendors are selling systems that are sometimes incompatible.

As these incompatible systems fall in price and their performance improves, interest among independent IT groups in installing their own networks will grow. As more networks are installed, the potential for problems with security and radio interference will be high. Achieving the goal of an integrated, seamless, secure, manageable.

and reliable wireless network at Duke requires careful enterprise-level planning.

Update on the lovebug virus

You’re probably well aware of the so-called “lovebug" trojan horse which, in just one day, disrupted electronic mail services and damaged files worldwide. Fortunately, although this trojan horse did affect some machines and local area networks at Duke, it caused only minimal problems, thanks to the diligence of users and system administrators throughout the campus and some peculiarities of this particular trojan horse kept our losses to a minimum.

To ensure your preparedness for the next such assault on all our resources, OIT offers the following recommendations: 1. Take the time to acquire and install a reliable virus scanner on all your PCs and Macintoshes, and use the scanner both to scan any new programs you consider installing or running on your computer and to periodically check all your hard drives for known viruses and trojan horses. The OIT Help Desk can assist you in this with site-licensed virus scanning software available to Duke faculty, staff, and students.

2. Take the time to update your virus scanner’s DAT or virus definition files regularly. The companies that produce virus scanners create regular updates, often monthly. Without these udpates, your scanner application doesn’t know about new viruses and trojan horses.

OIT provides a virus information web page at www.oit.duke.edu/virus. Consult this page to find basic tips as well as the latest developments.

3. Exercise caution in executing programs whose origin you cannot verify. Even seemingly innocuous or helpful programs may contain new viruses and/or trojan horses.

As a rule of thumb, if you receive a message with an attachment you don’t recognize and weren’t expecting, think twice (or even three times) before opening the attachment. It could well unleash a damaging virus or worm on your computer. Keep in mind that a new, never-before-detected virus or worm can slip unnoticed past even the best virus detection software

Following unofficial visits to both North Carolina and Duke, risingsenior David Lee has made it clear that those two basketball programs are at the top of his list.

From staff reports NEW YORK John Rocker, a Major League Baseball official said yesterday, has made the No. 7 train more famous than Duke Ellington’s A train.

Ellington took the A train to Harlem; Rocker says he is going to take the No. 7 train to Shea Stadium. Major League Baseball, though no official said it publicly,

does not want Rocker, the Atlanta relief pitcher, riding any subway to the Braves’ games with the Mets next week. Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said the city would try to prevail on him not to take the train and on the Braves not to let him take the train.

But one of the Braves’ top executives said Wednesday that it was Rocker’s business to get to Shea by the transportation of his choice.

‘1 haven’t discussed it, nor will I discuss it” with Rocker, John Schuerholz, the Braves’ general manager, said by telephone from Atlanta when asked about the closer's stated intention. “It’s a non-issue for me. Guys travel to the ballpark however they like.”

Darryl Hamilton, the Mets’ center fielder, who is on the disabled list, said he did not think Rocker would use the subway. “There are too many security risks involved,” Hamilton said. “On the baseball field, you’ve got some type of protection. If you’re talking about riding the subway, you are on someone else’s turf. I still can’t understand why the guy is bringing more attention to himself than is needed. Just play the game. Get four games over with, and get out of here.”

In a season full of surprises, the women’s tennis team saved the biggest for last.

Erica Biro, a sophomore from Boca

Raton, Fla., has been released from her scholarship and removed from the women’s tennis team for disciplinary reasons, head coach Jamie Ashworth announced Monday.

“It was a very hard decision to make, but we feel that both Erica and our team will be better off with her not coming back,” Ashworth said. “She had a good two years with us and we wish her best of luck whatever she may do, but the team and the coaches simply feel that we will be better off

without her.”

The decision comes at the end of a season that saw the Blue Devils’ 116-match ACC win-streak unexpectedly ended by Wake Forest and a fouryear streak of NCAA semifinal appearances ended in the round

of 16.

But the decision to remove Biro from the team easily proved the biggest surprise.

After a strong sophomore campaign that saw Biro hold top-100 rankings in both singles and doubles and record a 32-12 singles record, she figured to be an important piece of the 2001 campaign.

But a lax work ethic and dissension within the team eventually outweighed her on-court contributions, leading to the removal.

“From a wins and loss standpoint, losing Erica is huge in the 27 matches we play,” Ashworth said.

“But on the 85 other days of practice when not playing a match, it will help our team.”

Biro’s imminent plans are not yet known and she is still enrolled in the University.

“best-available player” during those selections. He should still be on the board for the 19th pick.

“Charlotte is a reasonable spot for him,” said Carrawell’s agent, Lon Babby. “It’s definitely in his range. He might go one or two spots higher or lower, but we don’t expect him in the top 15, for instance.”

The other small forward rated onpar with Carrawell is Desmond Mason from Oklahoma State. But it does not appear that Charlotte is seriously considering him with the pick.

“He is a person under consideration,” Bower said. “I don’t know how strong of a consideration he is. He has not worked out for us yet.

So Carrawell will go at 19th, if everything falls in line with the predictions. But of course, that doesn’t always happen. The Hornets acknowledge that small forward is a need, and that the death of Bobby Phills leaves them with

guard or a front-court player.”

Two players that the Hornets would take over Carrawell, were they to slip to 19th, are Jerome Moiso from UCLA and Morris Peterson from Michigan State.

But most draft experts have Moiso off the board by the 14th pick, and Sacramento will probably take Peterson if he is available for the 16th pick.

There is also the strong possibility that Charlotte will try to move the pick for a veteran. This could prove difficult as there is not much interest in the 19th pick in what most teams believe is a shallow draft.

In case keeping track of all of that is not confusing enough, the ability of the Hornets to resign Eddie Jones and center Brad Miller plays a role. If one of those two aren’t resigned the Hornets could go for a center or a shooting guard. This makes Michael

Redd, who has worked out for the Hornets, and any available post-player a possibility

It hardly WIMBLEDON, England seems like a fair fight: six-time Wimbledon champion Pete Sampras against grasscourt novice Jiri Vanek.

Still, the top-seeded Sampras is a bit edgy about his first-round opponent at Wimbledon.

“I don’t know him. I’ve never seen him play,” Sampras said following the tournament draw Tuesday.

“Over the next couple of days I’ll try to find out something about him. It’s a little unsettling to play someone you’ve never seen play.”

Vanek, a Czech ranked 80th, will make his Wimbledon debut on Centre Court next Monday at age 22. A tougher obstacle for Sampras will like-

Kucera reached the fourth round at Wimbledon last year and upset Andre Agassi at the French Open two weeks ago. Ferrero, at 20 touted as a potential star, made the semifinals at the French.

In the women’s draw, defending champion Lindsay Davenport will open against her doubles partner, Gorina Morariu. Top-seeded Martina Hingis

will play Spain’s Angeles Montolio.

Sampras is bidding for a record 13th Grand Slam title. He said at least six other men are capable of winning the tournament: Agassi, Richard Krajicek, Lleyton Hewitt, Mark Philippoussis and Britons Greg Rusedski and Tim Henman.

Lee obtains offers from Duke, UNC Blue Devils attempt I

class of 2001 until after the November early signing period, one thing has become certain: David Lee would be a welcome centerpiece at either program.

“David Lee will definitely have a scholarship offer [from Dukel,” Sporting News recruiting expert Brick Oettinger said. “There’s no question about that.”

A tall, lanky Mike Miller-like forward with incredible athleticism and versatility, Lee has impressed every expert and is recognized universally as one of the elite members of his class. Neither Lee nor his high school coach Kelvin Lee (of no relation), who has been out of town this week, were available for comment following last week’s unofficial visit.

Although the Chaminade Preparatory College standout has made it clear that Duke and UNC top his list, the natural lefty has already visited Kansas and he is planning to visit Kentucky and Missouri in the near future. Lee is further considering Illinois and Florida, while Stanford is rumored to be a longshot.

Whichever program snags Lee will not only be getting a 6-foot-9,215-pound frame that that tallied 20 points and 12rebounds each game last season, it will also receive one of the most athletic big men in the nation.

“His number one strength is his jumping ability and his stunning quickness, especially for a guy who is 6-9,” said Oettinger, who ranks Lee as the second best small forward in his class. “You don’t see a lot of speed and jumping ability in guys who are 6-9, especially in big white guys.”

Thin for his height, Lee’s jumping ability—which incidentally led to a broken arm his sophomore season when he tried to complete a running dunk over the head of another player—has been turning the heads of coaches and recruiting experts nationwide. The only problem, however, is Lee currently doesn’t fit into either position he often is listed at.

With the height that would tend to suit a power forward and the athleticism customary of a wing player, the question during the next year is whether Lee bulks up to power forward weight or hones his shoot-

ing touch to fit the game of a wing forward.

Other recruiting possibilities who have listed Duke among their top choices include 6-10 forward/center Rick Rickert, who scored 29 points per game while hitting nearly half his threes; 6-8 wing Jawad Williams; 6-2 guard Ben Gordon, who has drawn comparisons to incoming Duke freshman Chris Duhon; and 6-7 James White, the only wing forward who Oettinger ranks ahead of Lee. Like Lee, White is said to be eyeing crosstown rivals Duke and UNC as his top two choices. And while White’s more polished shooting touch has him currently favored over Lee by recruiting analysts, the Blue Devils don’t seem as keen on the Maryland native.

“I don’t think Duke is 100 percent sold on any of those other guys,” Oettinger said. “Not even James White, who is awfully good and has been given a firm scholarship offer from UNC.”

Yet with Cargill’s reputation as an excellent doubles player and a possible replacement for Biro coming in during the summer, losing Biro won’t keep the Blue Devils from starting this season as a likely national championship team.

“It was a hard decision for us, but it’s one we had to make,” Ashworth said. “I think our team can deal with it and work around the problems. We lose talent with Erica leaving, but both sides will be better off.”

“We need somebody out there who is willing to work hard and appreciate the chance to play on the team and appreciate being at Duke,” Ashworth said.

“In the long run, we’re going to be a better team and a team in the true sense of the word. With someone else we can get more out of practice.

“With only eight girls, if we have one not doing what they’re supposed to be doing with their practice partner, that’s 25 percent of the team that is not doing what it’s supposed to be.”

Losing Biro is an early blow to what likely would have been the most talented team in program history, but one for which an exceptionally deep team should be able to compensate.

With the addition ofAnfle Cargill, the nation’s topranked recruit, and the return of top seeds Megan Miller and Kathy Sell, Biro would likely have played fourth in the lineup. But with rising sophomores Katie Granson, Hillary Adams and Prim Siripipat—the Nos. 4, 5 and 6 seeds from this year’s squad—all returning, the Blue Devils should be able to recover from the loss.

Replacing Biro’s doubles presence, however, will prove more of a challenge.
