THE INDEPENDENT DAILY AT DUKE UNIVERSITY

Mayor candidates hold similar views on Duke

By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

The candidates for Durham mayor differ little in their approaches to Duke-Durham relations—an unsurprising fact given that both have extensive ties to the University.

Mayor Nick Tennyson graduated from Duke in 1972 and has been in Durham ever since Former longtime county commissioner Bill Bell, a retiree of IBM, consulted for Duke in 1996, when he helped create the Neighborhood Partnership Initiative—the University s plan for working with nearby neighborhoods and schools.

John Burness, senior vice president for public affairs and government relations, said both candidates have been

good friends of the University.

“I think that Duke is a valuable resource for this community,” Bell said. “For me, it’s not all about money.”

Tennyson, in his two terms as mayor, has taken a similar stand.

“I think of Duke as a resource,” Tennyson said. “It’s a tremendous economic engine for our community, and it is a resource that we need to improve our ability to strategize with.”

Although money has surfaced as an issue in the past, neither candidate said he expected the University to provide the city an annual payment in lieu of property taxes, which, as a non-profit university, Duke does not have to pay.

Executive Vice President Tallman Trask is working out an agreement with the city to pay for fire services.

Six candidates vie for 3 at-large seats � Among the

six City Council hopefuls are five incumbents and one challenger, all of whom list crime as the top issue facing

Durham right now.

By MATT ATWOOD The Chronicle

Voters will send at least two members ofthe Durham City Council home Tuesday, as five incumbents and one challenger battle over three at-large seats on the council.

Incumbents Lewis Cheek, Tamra Edwards, Dan Hill, Angela Langley and Thomas Stith are competing with challenger Joe Williams in the race, which revolves around the issues of growth, development, crime and efficient government.

Almost every candidate listed crime prevention as the top issue facing Durham:. Williams, for example, advocated higher visibility of police officers on city streets.

Cheek agreed, also calling for better technology for police and more community involvement in preventing crime.

Although all the candidates agree that crime needs to be addressed, they differ on issues of growth and development. While on the council, Cheek, Hill, Langley and Stith have voted in support of most rezonings for new residential or commercial developments on the periphery of Durham.

They argue that it is important for the city to grow, and to provide nearby homes for people who work in the Research Triangle Park. “It makes no sense to me that we don’t have quality residential properties all around the northern rim of the Research Triangle Park,” said Hill, Trinity ’66. “We have nothing there.”

But Edwards has generally voted .against controversial rezoning projects, arguing that they place too much stress on the city’s environment, roads and overcrowded schools. “We are adding to the problems that we’re facing in Durham, not only with the schools, but also with crime,” Edwards said at a forum last week.

“I have a problem with that.” She did not return See AT LARGE on page 11 >

U.S., Tajikistan agree to cooperate

The U.S. will pay Tajikistan to use former Soviet bases for launching attacks

By MICHAEL GORDON

New York Times News Service

Tajikistan and WASHINGTON the United States have reached a tentative agreement on military cooperation that could lead to American airstrikes against the Taliban forces from the territory of the Central Asian republic.

An American inspection team has arrived in the Central Asian nation to examine three former Soviet bases to see if they are still usable. Their arrival followed a tentative agreement on military cooperation under which Tajikistan would receive tens of millions of dollars.

Pentagon officials said that if the bases are determined to be in satis-

factory condition, U.S. Air Force warplanes could use them to carry out bombing raids supporting the northern alliance.

The airfields might also be used by helicopter-born Special Operations forces. And the air bases could serve as a hub for military supplies being sent to the northern alliance and relief supplies to Afghan refugees carried in on Air Force cargo planes.

In addition to inspecting bases in Tajikistan, the American team also plans to look at bases in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, an American officer said. The team is accompanied by officers from Britain, Turkey, Canada and the Netherlands.

The U.S. military’s effort to gain

access to air bases near the fighting in northern Afghanistan comes as the Pentagon is stepping up its efforts to

help the northern alliance, the antiTaliban resistance group.

Additional American Special Operations forces were also sent into northern Afghanistan over the weekend to work with geographically dis-

persed factions of the alliance.

The purpose of the teams, which typically consist of 12 people, is to call in airstrikes, coordinate military planning with anti-Taliban groups and assess what weapons and supplies the anti-Taliban fighters need.

Rumsfeld, on a tour of front-line states in the war against terrorism, sought to dispel fears that the air campaign, now in its fifth week, was failing to crack the Taliban’s grip on Afghanistan.

Rumsfeld, who later Sunday went on to India, said the airstrikes and topple the Taliban without the assistance of Taliban were “using their power in enclaves throughout American ground troops.

Meanwhile, U.S. jets struck the front line about 30 miles the country” and were “not making major military moves.”

Marketplace offers ‘Breakfast on the Run’ Chambers � breakfast take-out down steps break, students food three from Board

The new program, started after fall allows to take one item from each of categories.

By MOLLY NICHOLSON The Chronicle

Following greater demand for a lighter and quicker breakfast on East Campus, students can now get breakfast to go at the Marketplace.

Breakfast on the Run, introduced after fall break, allows students to pick up food on a table in front of the dining area from 7:30 to 10:30 a.m. weekdays.

“Some students wanted something lighter and would rather eat at the bus stop, some students wanted a change and some students didn’t have time to eat,” said Skip Herrod, general manager of East Campus dining facilities. “We felt a need to be able to offer something that was quick to meet the needs of the students. We’re trying to be as versatile and as accommodating as possible.”

Herrod said the setup—which allows customers to choose one food item from three categories—encourages students to eat a balanced meal. Food items range from bagels and muffins to yogurt and fresh fruit.

“If you are not a freshman, then you can still just swipe your card or use points to get a Breakfast on the Run option. Swipe and go. One stop shopping, hopefully,” Herrod said.

He said a similar program was tried last year but did not gamer as much interest since it was started so late in the year. This year, he said, Jhe plan has been successful, attracting 125 students daily.

“Even if it’s 125 students, then we’ll

serve the needs of 125 students. That’s the way we have to look at it,” Herrod

said. He added that the administration had pushed for a more proactive and customer-focused policy.

Freshman Alyssa Shell said she appreciates Breakfast on the Run. “Some mornings, you are running behind at school or you want to get up later, so

STUDENTS EAT at the Marketplace. The eatery is now offering a “Breakfast on the Run” program, whereby customers can get their morning meals to go. why waste your time when you can eat on the bus?” Shell said.

But she said the program was inconvenient when it ran out of food. “They never have any components, so you still have to wait while they get more food,” Shell said. “It’s a pain sometimes.”

Freshman Megan Quinn said she

does not use Breakfast on the Run because she thinks the program wastes materials by packaging the food. “The little cereal boxes are extensively pack-

aged, and then they put the little cereal boxes inside a bag so that you can take it out,” Quinn said. “Plus it just encourages the very American style of eating very quickly, rushing around and not sitting down and having a decent conversation.”

But Herrod said Breakfast on the Run does not encourage students to

rush their meals. “We still have a large number of students that are coming and dining in the facility. Breakfast on the Run really helps people that have a tight schedule or like to sleep late, so I feel that we are meeting the needs of both groups.”

Herrod said he thinks Breakfast on the Run will continue. “Never say never, but the intention is to have it for the rest of the year as long as participation does not drop. But it looks like the way things are going now, we’d like to offer it next year and as long as it meets the needs of students,” Herrod said.

New additions, such as breakfast sandwiches, have been popular, he said. Herrod is also considering adding sausage, gravy, biscuits and hot chocolate.

From staff reports Julius Chambers, famed civil rights attorney and former chancellor of North Carolina Central University, has resigned from a newly elected seat on Duke University’s Board of Trustees after concern of a potential conflict of interest with his Charlotte law firm.

Chambers was one of seven new members appointed to the Board this summer, but he said he was not able to avoid a conflict with the firm he helped found, Ferguson, Stein, Wallas, Adkins, Gresham and Sumter.

“I have tried any number of scenarios to resolve this matter but the North Carolina Bar Association advises that I have a conflict in each of the scenarios I proposed,” Chambers said in a letter to President Nan Keohane.

Chambers’ firm occasionally handles cases of medical malpractice against Duke, said, John Burness, senior vice president for public affairs and government relations. Chambers could not be reached for comment.

“The Trustees and I are disappointed that we will not have the benefit of Julius’ wisdom and advice on a wide range of issues affecting the University,” Keohane said. “At the same time, we understand the reasons for his decision to step down from the Trustees in order to maintain his long-standing relationship with the law firm he was instrumental in founding.”

An undergraduate alumnus of NCCU, Chambers graduated first in his law class at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and received a masters of law degree from Columbia University.

He argued the 1971 US. Supreme Court case Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education, successfully advocating for federally mandated busing to desegregate public schools.

University plans to develop new major m neuroscience

By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

The Department ofPsychological and Brain Sciences is planning to provide undergraduates with a new major in neuroscience.

Christina Williams, PBS department chair, said that over the past five years, the department has gained a number of experts in the area, especially in cognitive neuroscience.

Williams nevertheless cautioned

that the major will take at least two

years to fully plan and develop.

Furthermore, most of the department’s neuroscientists will be relocated to space on the third floor of the Center for Human Disease Models, expected to open the summer of 2003.

“The trick of doing this well is that there are courses that could count toward psychology or neuroscience,” she said.

Israel withdraws from West Bank town despite attack

By MARK LAVIE

The Associated Press

TEL AVIV, Israel Israel began withdrawing from a West Bank town early Monday, despite a Palestinian

attack hours earlier in Jerusalem that left two teenagers dead—one a girl bom in the United States.

The Israeli pullout from Qalqilya was expected. Israel had sent forces into parts of six West Bank towns the day after Palestinian militants assassinated ultranationalist Tourism Minister Rehavam Zeevi Oct. 17.

They withdrew from Bethlehem and nearby Beit Jalla a week ago.

The military said Israeli forces were withdrawing a few hundred yards to the edge of Palestinian-controlled territory and into Israel. Palestinian witnesses said six Israeli tanks pulled back from the northern and southern entrances to the town, and that tanks in other locations were preparing to leave.

The U.S. government had demanded repeatedly that Israel pull its forces out of all six towns it took over after Zeevi was killed by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The group said it was revenge for Israel’s killing of PFLP leader Mustafa Zibri.

The United States is concerned that the increased Mideast tension could interfere with its effort to bring moderate Arab nations into its coalition to fight the Taliban regime and accused terrorist leader

Osama bin Laden.

Israeli officials had said Sunday that the pullback from Qalqilya would proceed despite the attack in Jerusalem.

The shooting happened in a disputed part of the city, at a busy intersection.

A Palestinian gunman sprayed an Israeli bus with

automatic rifle fire before two police officers and a civilian shot him dead.

The intersection is in front of French Hill, a Jewish neighborhood built on land Israel captured in the 1967 Mideast war and annexed to Jerusalem. Passengers on the bus included students from an Orthodox Jewish girls school.

Shoshana Ben-Yishai, 16, was shot in the head and died at a hospital. Israeli media reported that she had moved to Israel from Long Island, N.Y. when she was 5 years old and lived in Betar Illit, an ultra-Orthodox settlement in the West Bank. She was buried late Sunday in Jerusalem.

Israel Radio identified the other dead teen-ager as Menashe Regev, 14, from Jerusalem.

More than 40 people were injured. Police identified the attacker as Khatem Shweiki, 24, from the West Bank city of Hebron,

Police said he belonged to the militant Islamic Jihad.

“He was standing there and shooting,” Marcus, a West Bank settler, told Israel radio. “I got out of the car. I fired. I emptied an entire clip. He fell. Then two soldiers came and I showed them where he was and they shot him with their M-16 [assault rifles].”

Yasser Arafat’s leadership issued a statement condemning the attack and ordering its security forces to arrest those responsible.

There were several teen-age girls on the bus. After the gunfire ended, their backpacks were strewn amid the bloody shards of glass around the bus. Girls sat on curbs, sobbing and being comforted by medical crews.

“The first thing I did was throw myself to the floor, and I yelled at some girls to get their heads down,” said Mazal Amsalem, a passenger on ihe bus.

“They all did, and they began reciting psalms and praying,” said Amsalem.

Bv AMI PATEL The Chronicle

Thanks to the Tooth Ferry, smiles at Durham elementary schools have been getting a little bigger lately.

The mobile dental treatment unit, contained in a van, offers simple dental procedures during the day to low-income children in kindergarten through fourth grade.

“It is a win-win-win situation,” said Brian Letoumeau, director of the Durham County Health Department, which jointly sponsored the initiative with Duke University Health System and Durham Public Schools.

“The Health Department is improving the quality of dental hygiene in Durham, Duke is interacting and offering services to the community and students are receiving quality dental attention. With this program, everyone benefits,” Letoumeau said.

to the dentist.”

Ferry services are not free —fees vary depending on the dental procedure performed and the student’s income level. If the student receives federal aid, officials bill Medicaid.

Health Department officials plan to break even on their investment through Medicaid reimbursements.

Parental consent is required before children can be treated at the Tooth Ferry, but Dr. Miriam Mclntosh, director of the dental division for the Health Department, said this has not deterred students.

“Children are knocking each other down to get on the van,” Mclntosh said with a chuckle.

Letourneau said one student even faked a cavity to visit the van.

Elementary schools have received positive feedback from parents as well. Darlene Hampton, a family facilitator at Eastway Elementary School, said some parents even accompanied their children to the van.

Depending on the availability of funds, more schools and vans may be added in the future. Patty Darragh, program manager of Duke’s Division of Community Health, said

U.S. military prepares for second stage of campaign � TAJIKISTAN from page 2 day that the United States is rushing supplies to the northern alliance forces so they can fight through the winter. At

the same time, the United States is trying to bomb the Taliban’s stockpiles so they run out of supplies if the fighting drags on.

“We are re-supplying the opposition with ammunition, with food, with blankets; we hope, in the not-too-distant future, with cold-weather gear,” Myers told ABC television Sunday. “The fighting forces on the side of the opposition on our side will be much better prepared for winter than will the Taliban.”

After four weeks of bombing, the U.S. military is girding itself for the second and most complex phase of its campaign.

The first phase relied exclusively on airstrikes. The second stage is supposed

to make considerable use of American, and eventually British, Special Operations forces.

So far, however, U.S. commandos have carried out a single operation: the raid Oct. 20 in which U.S. commandos attacked a house used by Mullah Mohammed Omar, the Taliban leader, and an airfield south of Kandahar.

Pentagon officials said that it has been difficult to obtain intelligence with which to conduct additional raids.

Myers, asked about a report in The New Yorker that 12 commandos were wounded in the Oct. 20 assault, said it was wrong and that no commandos were wounded or killed by the Taliban.

The difficulty in conducting commando raids has made the U.S. military more dependent on cooperation with anti-Taliban groups within Afghanistan.

In the north, that means working with

Few schools offer opportunity to major in neuroscience � NEUROSCIENCE from page 4 ior and computational neuroscience, but she would like to increase its breadth of cellular and molecular neuroscience experts.

The new major will focus on the natural sciences and will offer a bachelor of science degree, likely including basic courses in biology, chemistry and physics—making it one of only a few fully interdisciplinary courses of study.

Princeton University offers a doctorate in neuroscience, but only a cognitive and behavior neuroscience concentration within the psychology major.

Similarly, Yale University offers a behavior neuroscience track as part of its undergraduate psychology

major, while also providing a graduate degree in neuroscience. The University of Pennsylvania, however, offers an undergraduate degree in cognitive science.

“It’s very exciting. There are very few places—more and more every year—that offer neuroscience majors,” said George Mangun, professor of psychology and director of the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, “It provides a focus for those who want to go on in certain fields, for a pre-med degree or other certain things and gives them a chance to concentrate on a cutting edge look at the nervous system.”

Victory gives volleyball second-place finish in ACC

By NEELUM JESTE The Chronicle The volleyball team closed out its regular season home schedule with victories Friday and Saturday nights, guaranteeing it at least a second-place finish in the ACC. The Blue Devils (20-3, 12-3 in the ACC) capped offthe weekend when they easily dominated Maryland (10-12, 6-8) 30-23, 30-19, 30-22. The previous night, they defeated a tough Florida State team (12-10, 8-5) by scores of 30-27, 30-

28, 20-30, 30-28.

“Both were really important matches ,and our main goal was to remain focused,” coach Jolene Nagel said. “We were not about to let anything slip by.”

Duke, avenging its Oct. 5 loss to the Terps, was quick to show that it was tough Saturday night, as it easily came out with the victory. The team’s four seniors, Dorrette Burwell, Bryn Gallagher,

Ashley Harris and Sarah Stephens, who were honored at Senior Night, led the team with outstanding play.

“The seniors were tremendous, and I am so proud of them. As a group, our

team’s passing and blocking were both very strong tonight, and we were much more aggressive. We played much more smoothly than we have in a while,” Nagel said.

Stephens, recovering from a shin injury, had her first start of the season.

The middle blocker had a career-high 10 kills with a team-high .625 hitting percentage for the match.

“We had a great time out there, which is why we played our best,” Stephens said. “My goal was just to get the girls pumped up and have fun. We also knew what Maryland was going to do, so they never really had a chance.”

Maryland had strong blocking to start off the game, but the Blue Devils’ hitting *

proved to be much better. The team was successful in limiting Maryland’s outside hitter Carey Brennan to a .195 hitting percentage. Duke’s blocking also picked up, especially in the second game, causing the Terps to miss many of their shots.

Outside hitter Harris closed out the match with one ofher 13 kills. The senior had a .250 hitting percentage.

Outside hitter Burwell finished the

game with 11 kills and a .364 hitting percentage, while Gallagher had 9 kills and a .421 hitting percentage.

“It was our senior night, so we really worked on being focused. We all felt extremely comfortable out there, and I could feel that things were running smoothly,” Burwell said. “We communicated much abetter than Friday night.”

The seniors were responsible for 43 of Duke’s 55 total kills. The team outhit Maryland .361 to .165 and committed only 12 errors to Maryland’s 20.

The Blue Devils had a tougher match Friday versus Florida State. Although FSU outhit Duke by a percentage of .285-.242, the Seminoles’ 11 service errors made a huge difference.

Harris led the team Friday with 17 kills, 11 digs and a .389 hitting percentage. Outside hitter Jill Sonne also had a strong game with 16 kills, 15 digs, 5 block assists and a .387 hitting percentage. Florida State’s tough middle hitter Norisha Campbell had a match-high 19 kills and a .333 hitting

percentage.

“We prepared for each game similarly, as if we were playing any other team,” said freshman Cassidy Crum, who has seen more playing time the second half of the season. “That’s why we stayed so mentally focused.”

The Blue Devils, currently ranked first in the ACC, close out their season next Saturday at Wake Forest.

Church’s return turns into win over Commodores

lar season. The loss for the Commodores came on senior night and prevented them from reaching the .500 mark this season.

The game proved to be a tough and intense battle for both teams, and neither could finish on scoring opportunities. In the last seven minutes of the game, however, Duke put two balls into the back of the net. Blue Devils senior Kasey Truman was fouled just outside the box in the 83rd minute and Carly Fuller took the direct kick. Fuller nailed the 20-yard shot right into the upper 90 corner past Vanderbilt goalie Lauren Whitt. Just over three minutes later, senior Alison Sanders hit a volley to make the score 2-0.

Coach Robbie Church believed that overall, his team moved well on and off the ball. He also thought Duke did dominate much of the early part of the game, but just could not get the ball into

the back of the net.

Church, who came to Duke from Vanderbilt just this year along with assistant coach Billy Lesesne, was especially emotional in his first time back at Vanderbilt since he last coached there. Church has been following Van-

derbilt through the season, rooting for them as well.

“It was weird.... It was a tough situation,” Church said of being back on his old territory. “But it was a very important game for us. We had to put [the emotions] aside and go for the win.”

Sanders agreed with Church on the high emotions of the game. After sitting out her first two seasons at Duke due to three ACL tears, Sanders has come back to be one of the team’s lead-

ing scorers.

“I think it was a really emotional game.... We had a rough time scoring. I think we dominated, just couldn’t finish until the end,” Sanders said. “This has definitely been my favorite season; I think all the seniors would agree. We love Robbie, the team’s fun, and it’s going to be an emotional postseason.”

Vanderbilt coach Ronnie Hill, who played on Duke’s first women’s team in 1989 and is also a friend of Church, was disappointed with the loss but knew both teams had played well.

“We played well and battled hard tonight,” Hill said. “I am not disappointed in our effort at all tonight.... It was an emotional game for the players, the coaches, everyone. I only wish we could have come out on the winning end.”

Despite a slow start to the season, the Blue Devils have finally gotten things to go the way they wish. The win over the Commodores gave Duke its third straight win.

CARLY FULLER and the women’s soccer team beat Vanderbilt 2-0 this weekend “That’s three straight games we’ve had shutouts. When you can put zero on the scoreboard, you’re going to win a lot of soccer games,” said Church.

Upon returning from Tennessee last night, the team had practice. While it is confident in its ability and the level of play, especially in the last few games, Duke has the ACC tournament coming up and will need to play its best to come out on top. Duke’s last loss came from Virginia in hard fought battle that ended with a Virginia win, 2-1

in overtime. The Blue Devils, however, get a second chance against the Virginia Cavaliers Thursday night when they begin the ACC tournament in

Winston-Salem.

Demonized by Deacons: Men’s soccer falls to Wake

By KEVIN LLOYD The Chronicle

Wake

2 The men’s soccer team continued its inconsis0 tent play Saturday night,

Duke losing 2-0 to the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (12-3-1, 3-1-1 in the ACC) in Winston-Salem.

The loss drops the Blue Devils (8-9, 2the season and in the

3) below .500 for

conference.

“We are very pleased with the result,” Wake Forest coach Jay Vidovich said. “I guess one of the signs of a good team is when they don’t play as well as they are capable of, but still come away with the win. We played well enough down the stretch to take care of ourselves, but we could have done better in the second half.

I am very pleased with the result though.”

Duke did not keep the Demon Deacons off the scoreboard for very long. In the 27th

minute, Wake Forest goalkeeper William Hesmer threw the ball out to midfielder Aaron Thomas.

Thomas fed the ball to Jeremiah White.

The striker dribbled through the Blue Devil defense, finding a seam 12 yards from the net.

White fired the ball by Duke goalkeeper Scott Maslin, into the far side of the goal, and Wake Forest took a 1-0 lead.

The Demon Deacons struck again only seven minutes later. Defender Ryan Daugherty fed the ball to midfielder Vicente Bastidas. Bastidas found White streaking down the right side of the field. White slammed the ball off the right post and into the net to give Wake Forest a 2-0 lead and tally his second goal of the night.

The two goals raised White’s total to an ACC-leading 14 for the season.

“Both goals were pretty similar,” defender Kevin Sakuda said. “We stepped up to try to draw them offsides, and they wound up getting the ball over us. The first one, White had a pretty good shot. The second

one, he had a ton of room. I really think he was offsides on the second goal.”

Neither team could generate a significant attack for the remainder of the half, and the Demon Deacons took the 2-0 lead into the locker room.

Undaunted by a disappointing first half, the Blue Devils came out firing.

Duke’s best chance came in the 67th

minute of play. Junior midfielder Donald Mclntosh took a free kick just outside of the penalty area. Mclntosh’s shot appeared headed for the back of the net when Hesmer made a diving save to preserve the 2-0 lead.

The Blue Devils got off eight shots in the second half to only four for Wake Forest. But Duke was unable to get the ball

by Hesmer, who held on for the shutout.

“I think Wake Forest was definitely a tough team,” Sakuda said. “In the second half, we played pretty well. That’s been our story all year. We just couldn’t get it into the back of the net. We definitely dominated the half. But we don’t have anything to show for it. It’s getting a little frustrating.”

In order to salvage a .500 record for the regular season, the Blue Devils will have to win their final game, Wednesday night against the No. 6 Clemson Tigers (12-4, 22) in South Carolina.

After facing the Tigers, Duke will return to Clemson for the ACC tournament.

“I think that the Clemson game is much more important for our morale than anything else,” Sakuda said. “That’s not to say that the game isn’t important or that we’re not taking it seriously. But we’re looking at the ACC tournament as our opportunity to get into the NCAA tournament this year.”

Defending champs begin

Duke vs. EA Sports

season against EA Sports

By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle The nation’s preseason No. 1 team, the Duke Blue Devils, plays its first game against an opposing team tonight against the EA Sports All-Stars. The Blue Devils are excited to defend their national title.

“I’m looking forward to starting a great season,” said preseason national player of the year candidate Jason Williams.

The EA Sports All-Stars are a formidable foe, as the team’s roster includes Curtis Staples and Schea Cotton. Staples, who averaged 18.1 points per game as senior, was a standout player for UVa and is the NCAA’s alltime three point field goal leader with 413. Schea Cotton was once considered the top high school prospect in the country, and he led the All-Stars in scoring with 23 points in a 98-75 loss against N.C. State.

“You always feel challenges from teams that come in here and play against us,” Williams said. “I think this is a very big game on their schedule, and I think they’re going to come out and play really hard.”

If Duke needs any motivation about how good this team is, they can look at EA Sports’ 31-point victory over UNC

yesterday. The All-Stars won 107-76, and Curtis Staples scored 31 points.

Williams wants his team to use this game to grow.

“We’re going to improve from each game that we play,” said Williams.

The team’s preseason has gone well, with good practices and a good showing in the Blue-White game.

“Practice is going good,” said Williams.

“I think roles are starting to be defined.”

Transfer Dahntay Jones is playing his first game against another team at Cameron, and he will try to improve on his solid performance at the Blue-White game, where he scored 14 points on 6-of-10 shooting.

Chris Duhon looked good despite his hamstring problems in the Blue-White game, connecting on seven three-pointers. Williams, who is still recovering from a broken hand, will try to regain his touch after only shooting 8-23 at the Blue-White game.

The Duke big men also look to have an impressive year, as Carlos Boozer scored 20 points in the Blue-White game, and Mike Dunleavy and Casey Sanders added needed pounds to their skinny frames.

The game is at 7:30 p.m. in Cameron Indoor Stadium. The team’s next exhibition game is Nov. 15against the Nike Elite team, also in Cameron. The team does not start its regular season until Nov. 19 at the Maui Invitational in Hawaii.

Cameron Indoor Stadium

•

7:30 p.m

Duke won 99-61 last year in Cameron.

ANALYSIS

THE NOD

UNC’s Kris Lang was able to dismantle EA Sports for 34 points Sunday, meaning Carlos Boozer should have his way in the paint. All eyes will be on Rutgers transfer Dahntay Jones as he makes his debut in Cameron. Also look for Mike Dunleavy, 20 pounds heavier, to be a big force inside.

Inside

Curtis Staples, who made an NCAA record 413 three pointers during his career at Virginia, scored 31 points against UNC. Jason Williams, the preseason pick to win ACC and national player of the year honors, and Chris Duhon are being tabbed as the best backcourt in the country, and should dominate.

o c <D

CD

Although all of the All-Stars will see quality minutes, Schea Cotton is the only dangerous reserve. On Saturday, he came off the bench to score a teamhigh 23 points against N.C. State. Look for a bigger Casey Sanders to play well inside and for freshman Daniel Ewing to make an immediate impact.

Although they are coming off a 31-point win at UNC Sunday afternoon, their game against Duke will be the fifth in as many nights for the All-Stars. The Blue Devils, on the other hand, should be fresh and ready to prove they are worthy of their No. 1 ranking and high preseason expectations.

The first of two exhibition games for Duke will be a great chance for the starting five to gain experience playing together before the Blue Devils head to the Maui Invitational.

Duke looked strong in the Blue-White scrimmage last weekend, and it should come out firing against an EA Sports team that will be slowed by fatigue when it takes the floor in Cameron. Duke wins 99-65 Compiled by Shawn Nicholls

Pack attack: Blue Devils lose t

By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

N.C. State (5-3, 3-3 in the ACC) scored 49 unanswered points in gainst Duke Saturday, the most points the school has scored in a half since 1920.

On Duke’s first drive, the Blue Devils gained seven yards before deciding to punt on fourth down from their own 28 yard line. Duke’s fake punt was unsuccessful, and State took control of the ball 28 yards from the Duke endzone.

It was all downhill for theBlue Devils (0-9, 0-6) from that point.

“We put ourselves in a very big hole early,” Duke coach Carl Franks said. “We had a good shot on the fake early, and it was a chance I was willing to take to change momentum. When that didn’t work out, then the turnovers hurt us even more.”

N.C. State had a few tricks as well, as it successfully faked a field goal on Duke’s 22 which led to a first down. The drive concluded with a five-yard touchdown throw from quarterback Philip Rivers to Willie Wright.

“I was shocked [by Duke’s fake punt] because they had just stopped us three and out,” Rivers said. “But if that busts open and they’re successful with the fake, then it’s a perfect call. And if it’s not, you complain about it.”

N.C. State coach Chuck Amato feels he prepared his team for the fake.

“We talked about tricks all week,” Amato said. “When they do that, it reminds you that you got to fake it too.”

After the initial touchdown, State ap-

peared unstoppable.

Duke’s Kenneth Stanford fumbled State’s kickoff, and the Wolfpack recovered it on the Blue Devil’s 18 yard line.

This led to a 16-yard touchdown pass from Rivers to Ray Robinson. On State’s next possession, Robinson ran for an 87yard touchdown on the first play. The first quarter concluded with a six-yard touchdown pass from Rivers to Wright, giving the Wolfpack a 28-0 lead.

There was no change in the second quarter as Duke’s Cedric Dargan’s fumble was returned 52 yards by linebacker Levar Fisher for a touchdown, the first of Fisher’s career. Duke then had a successful drive and had reached N.C. State’s 12 yard line when D. Bryant threw an interception in the endzone, which was returned the length of the field by Marcus Hudson for a touchdown. Wolfpack backup quarterback Olin Hannum threw a 38-yard touchdown to Sterling Hicks after another

unsuccessful Duke drive. The score was 49-0 before the end of the first half.

But Duke, no matter how unsuccessful, demonstrated a lot of heart, and refusing to give up.

The Blue Devils scored 31 points to N.C. State’s six for the remainder of the game, including 24 unanswered points, starting with an 11-yard touchdown run

by Alex Wade at the end of the first half.

Chris Douglas also scored a touchdown and Brent Garber kicked a 38yard field goal, but the true star of the game for Duke was senior tight end

Mike Hart.

Hart, playing in his last game at Wallace Wade Stadium, had 165 receiving yards and scored two touchdowns.

“Our guys keep playing, and they keep battling,” FVanks said. “At least they gave the fans something good to go home with.

Mike Hart had one of the most courageous games I’ve ever seen. We ran 98

plays and we only took him out a couple times to catch his breath. But other than that, he was in there.”

Hart felt his teammates played courageous as well.

“This team never gives up whether we’re down 49 or down two,” Hart said.

“We’re going to fight as hard as we can to get back into it. The defense showed up in the second half and did a great job. tinfortunately, some of the turnovers in the first halfkilled, especially when they had such long returns for touchdowns.”

Amato also got a bit nervous in Duke’s

second-half run.

“They didn’t quit,” Amato said. “That’s a tribute to their coaches. They got a lot of people scared. [Fans] started coming

back in [the stadium].”

The Wolfpack players felt the same.

“Coach always says you have to learn how to kill a flower with an ax,” Fisher said. “We tried. Those guys were coming out, and they were playing. It’s not like they were just giving it to us.”

Robinson, who finished with 104rushingyards, shared his teammate’s opinion.

“We was frustrated because we’ve got to learn how to finish a game out,” Robinson said. “We’re a little mad about that, but we’re glad we got the win.”

The game was almost like a home game for the Wolfpack, as the stadium was dominated by N.C. State red.

“Our crowd provided a lot of support for us,” Robinson said. “They did a great jobkeeping us up. Sometimes it’s hard to get up for games like this.”

Duke has a week off before playing North Carolina in Chapel Hill on Nov. 17.

Wolfpack 55-31 on Senior Day 10 catches. 165 yards. Two touchdowns. But following Saturday’s loss to N.C. State, only one number stood out in the mind of senior tight end Mike Hart: 21.

Twenty-one consecutive losses for the Duke football team, a number that eats away at the Sayville, N.Y. native more now than ever before. Despite his personal accomplishments, Hart left Wallace Wade Stadium for the final time looking at the scoreboard and seeing his team’s 24-point defeat through the tears in his eyes.

“It’s nice to put up big numbers, but when we lose, it’s inconsequential,” Hart said. “You want to put big numbers up in a big game and you win. It’s great that I had a good day today, but I’d trade it all—l’d have zero catches and I’d break my leg—for a win.”

Hart is not alone in his agony; all of Duke’s seniors need to look back to their sophomore seasons to remember the team’s last victory. Duke coach Carl Franks, however, singled out Hart as having left everything on the field after Saturday’s game.

“Mike Hart probably had one of the most courageous games that I have ever personally witnessed,” Franks said. “We played a lot ofplays. We ran about 98 plays on offense, and we only took him out to catch his breath at times. He made some big, big plays for us.

“If that wasn’t an All-ACC performance by Mike Hart today, I don’t know what is.”

Hart was instrumental in keeping the Blue Devils from utter humiliation following the team’s 49-7 halftime deficit. He came out of the locker room fired up, determined to break through the Wolfpack defense in his final 30 minutes of home action. He caught seven passes for 118 yards and two touchdowns in the second half, but in the end, Hart still had to deal with the reality of the streak reaching 21 games.

“It’s just a feeling deep inside,” Hart said. “It’s like a hole, just keeps eating stuff up. You want to win so badly, and you put your heart and soul out there on the field; then when you come out losing, it really hurts you.”

As bad as Hart feels for himself, he feels even worse for some of his teammates. While he and the other seniors know their time at Duke is limited, Hart insists that he feels even worse for those who have yet to experience a Blue Devil victory.

‘You want to do anything you can, especially for the young guys,” he said. “I want to do anything I can to win for these guys because some ofthese guys, since they’ve been here, they have not won. I want to give them a win more than anything in the world.”

As badly as they want to emerge victorious, week / after week, the Blue Devils lose. But between those losses, Hart says, things don’t let up. Just his weekly class schedule is enough to remind him of the glories of victory that his team can never seem to realize.

“I’m in class with Jason Williams, Carlos [Boozerl and Chris Duhon,” Hart said. “They respect us and they know that we try hard, but they’re the best team in the country and you want to bring your team to that level. You see them, how successful they are, and how much fun they’re having, and you get a little envious. Why can’t we do that all the time?”

Hart knows that his time at Duke is running out.

He has two games left, at UNC and Clemson, to try and break the streak before he moves on. While many think Duke’s chances for a win are slim at best, Hart insists that on any given day, the Blue Devils could emerge victorious.

“I think that we can compete with anybody—Carolina and Clemson—and Fjn looking forward to going out and playing against those guys,” he said.

“Hopefully we’ll get a win out of one of the two, or hopefully both.”

But regardless of the outcomes, Hart says he’ll be around next year {o see his younger teammates achieve the success that Hart knows is just around the comer.

“I think our team’s going to be good in the future, and I’m really looking forward to seeing what they are going to do,” he said. “I’m going to be their biggest fan.”

Schilling retired 16 straight hitters before slumping Derek Jeter led off with a single and O’Neill followed with a single in front of centerfielder Steve Finley.

Up came Bemie Williams, and Torre had no intention to bunt with his No. 3 hitter. Besides, Williams has not had a sacrifice since 1996.

Tino Martinez tied it with an RBI single, and Schilling escaped further trouble by getting two fly balls. Finley ran a long way into the. right-center

Women win, men lose against UNC-Wilmington Sat.

By CLINTON McHUGH The Chronicle

It was a day of mixed emotions for the swimming team when it took to the water Saturday. Looking for its first win of the season against long-time rival UNCWilmington, the women’s team came up with a big 142.5100.5 victory. Things did not go so well for the men, however, as the Seahawks handily defeated them by a score of 150-91. The split improved the women’s team record to 1-2,but dropped the men to 0-3. The competition was the first dual meet ofthe season for UNCW. “UNCW is a very competitive team for Duke,” sophomore Lauren Cornet said. “Last year, both the men’s and women’s scores were very close. This year, we wanted to prove again to Wilmington that Duke can come out on top.”

The women won an amazing 10 of 13 events on the way to routing the Seahawks. Cornet and fellow sophomore Amy Halligan led the Blue Devils through the meet, each posting two individual wins and taking part in the first-place 400-yard medley relay. Halligan took first in the 200-yard IM before, leading teammates Kate Lambertson (2:11.68) and Lauren Afflixio (2:12.86) to a one-two-three finish in the 200-yard butterfly with her time of 2:08.94.

“We knew that the meet was going to be close,” Halligan said. “We had a quick team meeting during the first break that got us fired up and ready to go. The next event was the 200-yard butterfly, and we just came out really fast. It was great to get first, second, and third in that, and after that, we just knew that the girls were going to win.”

Cornet once again dominated the 200-yard breaststroke, cruising into first place with a time of 2:20.59.

She also won the 50-yard freestyle, touching in at 24.68 to claim victory in the fastest event in swimming.

Lauren Hancock also posted two wins for the Blue Devils, continuing to display her strength in distance swimming. Hancock won the 1,000-yard freestyle for Duke with her time of 10:25.52, and the 500-yard

freestyle in 5:07,25.

“I was feeling really strong in practice this week,” Hancock said. “I was more confident as well. It was going to be a close meet with a lot of intensity, so I just raced my best to try to give the team a boost.”

Senior Captain Chris Fleizach once again led the men’s team in its quest for its first win of the season.

Fleizach captured the win in the 200-yard butterfly with his time of 1:56.85, placed second in the 200-yard backstroke (1:55.46), and swam the backstroke leg of the winning 400-yard medley relay.

“UNC-W is always a close meet for us,” Fleizach said. “We really surprised them last year, but this year they scheduled us as their first meet so we wouldn’t

know what they had. Their freshman class turned out to be rather strong, and they were able to win a few key events that turned the meet in their favor.”

Junior Ryan Spoon extended his undefeated streak for the season in the 200-yard breaststroke, winning for the third time this season with his time of 2:09.95. Spoon also swam the breaststroke leg of the winning 400-yard medley relay.

“I enjoy swimming in home meets and have enjoyed some success while competing at Duke,” said Spoon. “One of my goals going into my collegiate career was going undefeated at home. Even though I lost last year against Davidson, I am hoping to finish my career without another loss.”

THE ROWING TEAM won its third straight Head of the Chattahoochee title this weekend.

Three-peat: Rowing wins Head of Chattahoochee

By CATHERINE SULLIVAN The Chronicle

The Duke women’s rowing team entered the Head of the Chattahoochee in Atlanta this weekend as the two-time defending collegiate champion, and al-

though official results will not be calculated until the end of the week, it appears that the Blue Devils have added a third consecutive title.

Duke entered boats in nine different races and came away with 13 medals, easily bettering its total of nine topthree finishes last year.

“I’m really pleased with the depth that the team showed,” coach. Robyn Horner said. “This weekend was a total team effort. Our second and third boats stepped up and were able to do very well, and it was also exciting to have such a strong showing from our

freshmen.”

Throughout the fall season, the freshmen boats have been performing well, but they had not faced traditional rowing powerhouses such as Clemson,

MonsterTrak Even though things are slowing down with MonsterTrak and OCI right now, they will resume in full force next semester. Several companies who interview during the fall will return as early as January to begin the process again. Additionally, many organizations that do not recruit first semester will be here in the spring to interview students for full-time and internship positions. Resume submission windows will open as early as December 25th, so plan ahead and don’t procrastinate!

Texas and Tennessee until Saturday.

But Duke showed the depth of its freshman class by claiming the Freshman 8 race in a time of 18:08, which is nearly a minute-and-a-half faster than last year’s Freshman 8 boat.

“Our class definitely has a lot of potential,” freshman Lindsay Stanga said.

“We seem to be improving a lot and we just felt like we had a great race.”

The same rowers that won the Championship Four race last year—sophomore coxswain Jessie Batzell and juniors Amelia Booth, Katie Lakin, Joanna Hingle and Caroline Diemar—in a time of 19:16 also dominated the event this year. They improved their time to 18:38, which placed them 10 seconds ahead of ACC rival Clerason.

“I would probably say that the Championship Four race was the most gratifying,” Horner said. “We’ve been going back and forth with Clemson in a lot of races recently, and I was really happy with the results.”

However, the Tigers were able to defeat Duke in the Championship Eight event. Clemson’s boat finished the 3.17 mile course in 16:50, while the Blue Devils captured second place with a time of 17:10.

Duke hopes that its success at the Head of the Chattahoochee will carry over into next weekend’s Rivanna Romp in Charlottesville, Va., where the Blue Devils will face some of their toughest competition of the fall season.

Virginia, Ohio State and Syracuse, which all made the NCAA Championships last year, will help the Blue Devils gauge their progress toward a first-ever NCAA birth.

He said he thought Duke students could act as mentors and tutors in any other ‘citizen’ in Durham.”

Specifically, Bumess said the University supported schools throughout the city.

the program will require another van to provide sufficient care for all the children who require dental attention.

The motivation for developing the Tooth Ferry program arose when Duke School of Nursing programmers noticed that many of the students seen at their school-based clinics were in need of dental attention.

“This idea germinated two-and-a-half years ago, but large projects like this take time to implement,”

Letourneau said.

“The van has been very successful and very busy.

Pardon the pun, but students have taken a real shine to it,” he said.

The Ferry has already visited W.G. Pearson Elementary Lab and Eastway Elementary Schools. It is currently treating students at Fayetteville Elementary, and will be at Y.E. Smith Elementary next month. The van will repeat the monthly rotation in January, and officials hope to add two more schools to the schedule.

In the meantime, Darragh hopes the van’s success will continue. “It is great to know we can get things done as a community,” she said. “The best part is getting smiles from the kids.”

1993

Bell for mayor Every two years, the people of Durham choose their mayor, and this year they face a familiar slate of issues before the city: high crime, rapid development and an underachieving education system.

In Tuesday’s election, voters have an opportunity to make progress for change.

Both challenger Bill Bell and incumbent Nick Tennyson present experienced visions for the future of Durham, and their views are not too far apart. But Bell’s obvious determination and his stances on key issues make him the clear choice to be the next mayor.

Bell’s most compelling quality is his relentless demand for answers and results. He goes after issues, courtesy of TheHeraid-sun more than opponent, he expresses a desire to use the mayor’s office as a bully pulpit to guide the actions of the City Council. He will bring an experienced, yet outside perspective to the office. Tennyson, meanwhile, has been in office for four years, and although he is not the source ofDurham’s problems, he depends too much on excuses and a resignation to the status quo. Bell may not be an intensely charismatic speaker, but he shows an obvious determination to tackle key Durham issues.

Development is a particularly telling topic that does separate the two. During his time on the council, Tennyson has consistently taken a hands-off approach to development, especially on sprawling projects on the outskirts of Durham, for fear of scaring investors to other counties. Such arguments are an easy way to avoid the questions of environmental protection and quality of life that Bell seems willing to confront.

The primary drawback about Bell comes in another development issue—downtown revitalization. Both candidates recognize the need for a thriving city core, but Bell has seemed too hesitant in moving forward with projects like American Tobacco. If elected, Bell should take the same aggressive attitude on downtown as he has with other issues.

Still, Tennyson’s stance on affordable housing also gives weight to Bell’s candidacy. The incumbent is correct in recognizing the need to reduce crime in Durham’s poorer neighborhoods, but he ignores the dangers of economic segregation that are becoming more real with greater development.

After four years, Tennyson certainly has experience as mayor, but Bell is not new to government in the Durham area. Not only did Bell help guide the Durham County Board of Commissioners for 26 years, but he has also served on the Triangle Transit Authority and the Board ofTrustees for North Carolina Central University. Bell may not know the mayor’s office as well as Tennyson, but he knows the city and can make the transition.

Tennyson has done a fairly good job as mayor, and on most issues—including crime and education—he and Bell are very close in their stances. The current mayor should be commended for some accomplishments, notably the reorganization of the police department and his refusal to campaign negatively against his opponent.

Ultimately, however, Bell’s determination as a leader and his views on the city’s most pressing issues make him the better choice.

The Chronicle formally endorses Bill Bell for mayor of Durham.

Recess review unfairly criticizes Tosca Ristorante I am the owner of Blue Com Cafe on Ninth Street and Tosca Ristorante Italiano in West Village.

Students may participate in seniority housing forum As many of you know, the housing lottery process on West Campus is being reconsidered for next year. While rising sophomores will be spread evenly throughout West Campus, the administration has still not decided whether or not to give rising seniors or rising juniors priority over doubles and triples.

Wednesday at 7 p.m., Duke Student Government will be debating a resolution calling for seniority to determine the lottery picks for all West Campus rooms —singles, doubles and triples. This is the

system currently in place.

If you

have

opinions

regarding this issue, we strongly encourage you to sign up for public forum, where you will have a chance to speak to the Legislature before it debates the resolution. You may sign up outside the DSG office or byemailing Executive Vice President Drew Ensign at dce4@duke.edu. Or, you may e-mail your comments to Ensign, and it will be printed on the meeting agenda.

Several members of DSG share the frustration that

current sophomores and juniors feel regarding housing.

Regardless of how well the new plans will meet the goals of creating a more cohesive and welcoming residential life community on West, we know that the uncertainty of this process makes transitioning difficult.

DSG works best with input—make your voice heard.

Rumsfeld defends war in Afghanistan, you idiot reporters The following is a partial transcript of the Pentagon press conference held on Saturday with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.

Rumsfeld: Good afternoon, everyone. I don’t really have any specific announcements today other than to say, if you ask a stupid question, I will have our military personnel escort you A from the building. Let’s get started with the questions. Oh, and Gen. i Richard Myers won’t be with us today, He has flown to Mayberry for a hairI cut. First question. Yes, John.

Sparky John King of CNN: Mr. Secretary, x/r Oneen the Taliban have claimed that stray Monday x > Mondal bombs have killed another 300 people and that they, not the weather, downed a helicopter and unmanned Predator drone on Friday. What is your response to their claims?

Rumsfeld: You know, it’s a mystery. I don’t really know how the Taliban had the time to shoot down our aircraft in between colonizing Mars and discovering the cure for cancer yesterday, too. [Laughter.] The Taliban are professional liars. You guys know that.

John, that was borderline stupid. Consider yourself warned. Yes, Linda.

Linda Franks of NBC News: President [George W.] Bush spoke in the Rose Garden very briefly yesterday on his way to a meeting with Tom Daschle and said quote, “Getting the Taliban is proving harder than we’d thought,” and “This war may go on for years.” What is your general feeling on the campaign? Do you share the president’s surprise at the Taliban’s resilience? ,

,

Rumsfeld; President Bush is an idiot. Don’t listen to him. No, I don’t share that feeling. I will personally put a bullet in Osama bin Laden’s head, and I promise you, it won’t take years. Let it be known that asking questions concerning or indirectly relating to President Bush will hereby be deemed “stupid.” He’s a puppet. Haven’t you guys figured that out yet? Harry.

Harold Palmer of The Washington Post: There has been some concern in both the media and the public that unexploded cluster bomblets are a bright yellow color and, from a distance, can look very similar to the humanitarian daily ration packages. The obvious concern is that Afgans might pick up the bomblets thinking they contain food, putting themselves in danger. Does the Department of Defense plan to do anything about that situation?

Rumsfeld: Let’s hope the Taliban is hungry.

nificant advances after nearly a month of continuous bombing. How would you respond to that?

Rumsfeld: You’ve got to be kidding me. Did you step out for coffee earlier? I just answered that. See, this is what I’m talking about. I stand out here and answer the same question in about 10 different forms.... Meanwhile, al-Qaida is planning ways to infect our children with smallpox. When the next airliner crashes, it’ll be your fault, Carl. I hope you sleep well tonight. Yes, Will?

Will Carpenter of CBS News: You mentioned the dropping of leaflets.... Can you tell us... are you dropping leaflets on the Taliban as well? And if so, what do they say?

Rumsfeld: Finally, a decent question. We have dropped a series of fliers on Afghanistan in the hopes that they will be read by the Taliban and possibly cause their fighters to flee the country or defect to the north[Laughter.] Seriously, though, I don’t think it’s much of ern alliance. We’ve been deploying them since the time a situation at all. Some of the Joint Chiefs successfulthe bombing started, and they’ve mainly focused on scare tactics. One particular flyer read, “Put down your ly lobbied to start dropping leaflets in various languages on the ground to help explain which are bombs sword, and we might not shoot you with a laser from and which are food, but if you ask me, even that is space.” There was another one that said, “This flyer has going overboard.

Anyway, I think they’re changing the color of Mullah Mohammad Omar over the head with a baseball bat.
