THE CHRONICLE

With first place in the ACC and Tobacco Road bragging rights on the line, No. 2 Duke took on North Carolina Sunday night in front of 6,350 people, the largest regular season crowd Koskinen Stadium has ever seen.

Like last UNC 2- year’s douDUKE 3 ble-overtime thriller, the game was fast-paced and physical; but unlike last year, the Blue Devils came out on top, 3-2.

In its first comeback win of the season, Duke (11-0, 3-0 in the ACC) weakened the Tar Heels’ (2-5-2, 1-1-0) quick offensive attack while two goals from Nigi Adogwa off the bench in the second half and a spectacular header by Danny Kramer in the last 90 seconds of the game helped extend the Blue Devils’ winning streak to 11.

In the opening play of the third quarter, The Citadel’s Michael Ballentine batted down Mike Schneider’s swing pass in the backfield and recovered it for a touchdown. The Bulldogs cut Duke’s lead to 1410, but despite additional Duke mistakes, The Citadel would not get any closer.

Starting from its own 10-yard line on the ensuing possession, Duke ran two short plays to bring up third and long.

Schneider dropped back and delivered a strike to sophomore tight end Ben Patrick just shy of die first-down marker. After taking a step, free safety Brandon Hawkins forced the ball out of Patrick’s hands, and Ballentine recovered the ball to give the Bulldogs possession in the red zone.

Just when the momentum seemed to have switched to the Bulldogs, the Blue Devils came up with a decisive defensive stand. On 3rd-and-4, junior Justin Kitchen fought through the offensive line to force SEE CITADEL ON SW PAGE 5

GAZA STRIP Israeli troops and aircraft hit hard at Palestinian militants this weekend, killing at least 11 in a massive Israeli incursion into the Gaza Strip’s largest refugee camp, as masked Hamas gunmen vowed more rocket attacks on Israeli towns.

About 2,000 soldiers have taken control of a 5-mile-deep chunk of northern Gaza to counter militants firing homemade rockets into Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said Saturday that the army’s mission was to completely stop the rocket fire. He vowed, ‘This operation will continue as long as necessary.”

Two Palestinians were killed and three others wounded early Sunday in an Israeli airstrike in the Jebaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza, residents and hospital officials said. The violent Islamic Jihad group identified the two dead as its members.

Witnesses and security officials said a missile apparendy was fired from a pilotless Israeli aircraft hovering overhead.

The Israeli military said soldiers saw militants planting a bomb and opened fire on them from the ground.

More than 50 Palestinians and five Israelis have been killed since a Hamas rocket killed two Israeli preschoolers in a town near Gaza Wednesday.

Israeli tanks and bulldozers also opened a new front Sunday, moving from a Jewish setdement in southern Gaza into the Khan Younis refugee camp, residents said, as Sharon pledged to halt mortar fire at the settlements as well.

The fighting again plunged the encircled, poverty-stricken Gaza Strip into scenes of anguish. Mothers wept over their children’s corpses, tank fire ripped through groups of militants and bystanders, stonethrowing youngsters faced off against wellarmed Israeli troops and tires burned in the streets to confuse Israeli spy drones.

SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE

Current and former members of the Pitchforks reunited for a performance in Baldwin Auditorium Saturday, in celebration of 25 years of performing together.

Pitchforks hit 25 years on high note by

Nicole Jones

THE CHRONICLE

What began as an ad in The Chronicle a quarter-century ago has become one of Duke’s most entertaining, endearing and enduring traditions. At 9 p.m. Saturday night, more than 60 current and former members of the Pitchforks gathered on the stage at Baldwin Auditorium to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Duke’s oldest male a cappella group.

The reunion, in planning since the summer, included singing the national anthem at Duke’s football game Saturday and a barbecue on West Campus. The events culminated in Saturday night’s performance, at which Pitchforks, old and new, harmonized through a set as diverse as its members.

The Pitchforks crooned their way through Rhett Atkins’ country hit “That Ain’t My Truck” and even tackled Pearl Jam’s grunge standard “Evenflow,” showcasing its members’ playful personalities and senses of humor. The performance kept several generations offans highly en-

tertained in Baldwin Saturday night and ended in a standing ovation.

“I think especially the alums are excited for the show because they realize how much the group meant to them,” said senior Scott Lemmon, president of the Pitchforks. He noted that one-third of all the group’s membersreturned for the chance to perform once again in Baldwin.

For Rick Laub, Trinity ’B3 and a Pitchforks alumnus, membership with the group continues to remain particularly special. He traveled from Michigan to attend the reunion and believes it’s “the camaraderie through harmony” that keeps the group going and why alumni are so eager to return.

Half of the founding group members returned for the reunion, taking the stage Saturday night with the same enthusiasm and humor that inspired the formation of the group in 1979. The alumni arrived Friday and spent the weekend rehearsing and reminiscing about life as a Pitchfork.

“I thought [the show] went really well,” said Will Lange, a junior and cur-

rent Pitchforks member. “There wasn’t

much more we could have asked for. It was a huge, huge group, but it makes it a lot easier.”

This camaraderie has led them to tour all over the nation and even to perform as far away as London. The group puts out its 13th album this fall and is preparing for its annual tour of the East Coast over fall break.

Although the Pitchforks is mainly an undergraduate ensemble, it began as a group of medical students who held their first meeting in the mental health ward of Duke University Hospital and called themselves “The Devil’s Den.” This year’s lineup of 16 members includes a law student and a professor.

Such diverse beginnings seem to have set the tone for the group’s quirky reputation.

With a repertoire of more than 350 songs that range from traditional barbershop to contemporary pop, the group enhances each song with a combination of choreoSEE PITCHFORKS ON PAGE 5

With a eye on helping the next generation, the Breast Wellness Clinic has recently embarked on several new initiatives for preventative breast cancer treatment, keeping patient needs —present and future—at the forefront of its researchers’ minds.

“Research is something that you do not only for yourself but for your daughter,” said Dr. Victoria Seewaldt, director of the clinic and associate professor of oncology. “I look back and see what’s been done in every generation, and I want to do something different.”

The clinic, a subdivision of the Duke Comprehensive Cancer Center that focuses on women who are at a high risk for breast cancer, opened in January 2003. In addition to providing traditional cancer screening services, the center also acts as a “clearinghouse where we put people in contact with different clinical trials, so we don’t just promote for SEE CLINIC ON PAGE 6

CORRECTION An Oct. 1 story about financial aid that ran on page 1 stated that immediate improvements to need-based aid would cost the University more than $l5 million annually.The annual cost would be just under $800,000; $l5 million would be the cost of endowing the changes.

CLARIFICATION The headline on front page story Sept.

thechronideatl 00 Trinity Chronicle rival groups pioneer

Literary societies unite to establish the school's first regular newspaper

THE CHRONICLE

The Chronicle celebrated its 100th birthday this weekend with the requisite panels and cocktail parties, all ofwhich relished in reminiscence. But one thing none of the alumni in town could remember was the actual birth ofDuke’s student newspaper—they were just too young.

It all happened rather quickly back in 1905.

Two literary societies, the Columbians and the Hesperians, dominated the minds of the Trinity College campus those days.

Despite a bitter rivalry they had published the school’s literary magazine, The Archive, together since 1887.

The two groups had recognized the need for a regular newspaper and had been trying to finagle a start for 25 years.

The College Herald, more of a newsletter than a newspaper, was founded in 1881, but it folded after it became Trinity Magazine. It was the heyday of newspaper ty-

coons and international newspaper monopolies, and the college had no answer.

So junior roommates Tom Stokes and U.N. Hoffman, an Hesperian and a Columbian respectively, turned to the literary societies and essentially pleaded for a chunk of their treasuries. The groups bought in and formed the eight-person board (four from each group) that would run The Trinity Chronicle under the auspices of the literary societies.

Men like B.S. Womble, who covered the law school and alumni affairs, and H.E. Spence, known simply as “It” for his for his luminary status on campus, were a jovial but serious bunch. E.B. Cooper was the first sports editor; he pulled off a rather large feat when the final eightpage edition of the first volume was devoted entirely to sports.

Athledcs came to take up a large portion of the editorial content—The Chronicle even made up with the name Blue Devils—and an inter-publication baseball game between The Chronicle and The Archive that was “strictly amateur” even received a front-page write-up in 1910.

Four years later, The Chronicle announced changes to its editor elections, and in 1925 Dean W.H. Wannamaker would create a new governing board and cut The Chronicle’s des with its founding literary societies.

Hesperian Henry Gilbert Foard, Trinity ’O6 and known more collegially as “Gibby,” was tabbed The Chronicle’s first editor, a position that would alternate between an Hesperian and a Columbian for the next 20 years. He, along with a very small staff, produced a very small first paper that arrived on campus Dec. 19, 1905. The first front-page story concerned vs. a public debate: “Hesperian Columbian: Sixteenth Annual Inter-Society Debate —Won By the Hesperian.” It was as if Gibby had won out to lead this new inter-society journalistic endeavor.

“What a paper that first issue was!”

Hoffman wrote in The Chronicle in 1937, reminiscing on the paper he founded.

“What the editors did not know about newspaper publishing!”

The learning curve was bumpy but steady from then on out. The Trinity Chronicle’s next issue—in January printed the wrong date on its front page.

HAMAS from page 2 The offensive has brought Israeli troops into Jebaliya—the largest Palestinian refugee camp and one of the most crowded places in the world, with 106,000people in half a square mile. Palestinian gunmen dug in, fortifying positions in Jebaliya and two other nearby towns also commandeered by Israel.

Late Saturday, Israeli forces pulled back briefly from the eastern edge of the Jebaliya camp, leaving behind a wide trail of destruction. To craft a new road into the camp, the Israelis leveled rows of small houses and flattened a farm. U.N. officials said dozens were left homeless.

Militant groups Saturday called a commercial strike that closed most shops and businesses in Gaza.

offensive as a “monstrous, criminal, inhumane attack,” but his prime minister, Ahmed Qureia, warned against the consequences of firing missiles into Israel.

Qureia, speaking in the West Bank town of Ramallah, urged militant groups “to think about the higher national interest and not give Israel excuses to continue the aggression against our people in Gaza.”

Israeli aircraft killed at least five Palestinian militants Saturday, included two targeted from a helicopter while traveling in a car. Troops also shot dead four Palestinians who managed to cut through the Gaza border fence and approach an Israeli communal farm.

In the missile strike on the car, the army said one of the men killed was a senior militant responsible for the production ofrockets. The other militant specialized in training recruits, the army said.

The buffer zone Israel created may help stop militants

from firing homemade Qassam rockets into Israel. But any lull in rocket fire will likely only be temporary unless Israel stays in the camp indefinitely.

Capt. Sharon Feingold, an Israeli army spokesperson, said the five-mile buffer zone matched the Qassam’s current range.

“So at this time we believe we have dramatically reduced the terrorist organizations’ capability to hit an Israeli town and target Israeli children.”

She added that Israel may have to stay in the camp for a long time, but did not say how long.

The campaign, code-named “Days of Penitence,” is by all accounts just getting started. Officials said the operation will be open-ended to serve as Sharon’s answer to the militant rocket attacks that threaten to turn public opinion against his planned withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in 2005.

CLINIC from page 3 our trials, we promote for everybody’s trials,” Seewaldt said. “The thought is that

this is how we’re honest and honorable.”

Among the most promising of these clinical trials is the “breast pap smear,” known formally as Random Periareolar Fine Needle Aspiration. Unlike conventional cancer screening methods that only detect tumors, such as mammograms and self-exams, RPFNA provides away to access cells from women who do not have cancer. Clinicians then use these cells to determine the location of pre-cancerous tissue changes.

Based on the number of abnormal cells, researchers assign the patient a number between 10 and 18, with 10 being nonnal, 18 being cancerous and 14 to 15 being atypia—meaning that some cells are abnormal but cancer is not necessarily imminent.

This method was pioneered at the University of Kansas 12 years ago, and Duke became the second leading university to perform the procedure about a year and a half ago. Although RPFNA is relatively new to Duke, the clinic’s volume—at 250 to 300 patients per year—already rivals that of Kansas, which performs about 400 annually.

Seewaldt said although the RPFNA is more invasive than other procedures, patient response has been positive. She also spoke from experience, as she had researchers practice on her before starting the trial. Tve got to make sure this is okay before I’m offering it to people,” she said.

The clinic’s focus on patients’ comfort needs can also be seen in the Patient Navigator initiative, scheduled to begin in January 2005. Based on a model from Harlem Hospital Center, this developing program will act on a larger level to create more trust between the clinic and community members by providing each clinic patient with an “advocate within the system,” Seewaldt said.

The program began because it became evident that black women in the community were not taking advantage of available treatments, said Stephanie Robertson, director of the Navigator Program and a staff assistant in the oncology department.

The program will target women at high risk for breast cancer. Robertson said she plans to collaborate with local outreach centers and clinics to make patients aware of their options.

Once the patient is at the Breast Wellness clinic, Navigators will pair her up with a companion who will accompany her to appointments in order to provide comfort and answer any questions. Robertson said that ideally, the companions would be a mixture of breast cancer survivors and nurses—this way, both emotional and medical patient needs would be addressed.

“We want to provide them with someone who would be more empowered than the next person so [patients] can develop a level of confidence,” Robertson said.

She said she plans to expand the program to help with transportation, child care and educational materials for the patients to deliver more comprehensive support.

Another promising cancer diagnostic tool the clinic is developing is the use of methylation markers. This technology allows scientists to identify potentially cancerous cells by looking at whether certain genes are turned on or off. If genes are turned on that are supposed to be off or vice versa, scientists know that the cells containing these genes are likely to be precancerous.

Seewaldt said new techniques such as RPFNA and the methylation markers were created in response to women declaring that “mammograms are not the be-all and end-all”—a backlash that she said began about five years ago. To address this issue, research institutions across the country put more money into research for new screening techniques, and only recently have the benefits of these efforts become apparent.

Many of the center’s future plans will explore a new way of approaching cancer prevention. Instead of the current cancer prevention drugs such as Tamoxifen, which can have serious side effects, the clinic will focus on developing more natural preventative measures. “[The research] is a whole different way of thinking about the development of cancer. This is all about prevention or investigating and knowing about how cancer develops,” said Dr. Pearl Seo, an oncologist and associate in the department of geriatrics. “Our hope is that [by] investigating the way in which cancer develops, we’ll be able to use medications that are less toxic.”

Seo, who writes protocol for clinical trials, is working on a trial testing aspirin as a possible preventative agent. She also hopes to research the use offlax seed oil, another more benign and natural drug alternative.

TRUSTEES from page 1 said. “They are major statement of the whole institution and the whole community if they were to go forward.”

The issue of divestment has gained momentum on campus this semester with the University’s decision to host the Palestine Solidarity Conference. The conference encourages universities to withdraw financial holdings from Israel.

Brodhead said the official process established this weekend does not change his stance on divestment in this case. Noting the nuances of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, he has said numerous times that there is not enough evidence or consensus to support divestment from Israel.

The Board also heard a report about changes being considered to campus safety as the University seeks to enhance its ability to prevent and respond to security concerns, but Peter Nicholas, chair of the Board, noted that it is not the Trustee’s place to dictate solutions.

“I think the Board’s concern really is just that we’re aware and understand,” he said. “And that we continue—as we do every year—to think about tradeoffs that openness in a place like this creates in terms of safety.”

‘There is this sort of underlying sense that there’s much more momentum in that regard than there really is,” Nicholas said.

Brodhead noted that the University will commence both projects quickly, but that it is just getting to the stage where broader discussion is appropriate.

Duke’s star captain Casey McCluskey took a feed from co-captain Carolyn Ford and arced a shot over the head of the Florida State goalkeeper to score the Blue Devils’ first goal of the night against a tough Florida State team.

“We’ve been playing really well,” head coach Robbie Church said. “Florida State is a great team, an NCAA Final Four team, a nationally ranked team. They’re going to win a lot of games and make a lot of noise on the national scene, but I didn’t want to change [our strategy] for them because we’re a very, very good team.”

maintained constant pressure on the Seminoles defense, keeping the ball on Florida State’s side of the field for the majority of the game. Despite only scoring once in the first half, the Blue Devils had seven shots on goal; the Seminoles had only two.

Duke continued to put pressure on the Florida State defense in the second half.

Lauren Tippets capitalized on the offensive effort, drilling a cross from Carolyn Riggs over the head of the Seminoles goalkeeper and into the comer of the net for the Blue Devils’ second goal.

“We gave [FSU] a lot of respect at the beginning of the game because they did so well last year,” Tippets said. ‘The second half we knew we needed to get another goal because they were putting so much pressure on us. I think once we got the second goal, we could just sit back and play our game.”

Duke goalkeeper Allison Lipsher kept the Blue Devils’ seven-game shutout streak alive against Florida State with four saves, including a spectacular catch in the second half on a shot from close range. Friday’s game marked Lipsher’s fifth shutout of the season and Duke’s ninth, four shy of a school record.

Blue Devils blank unranked opponents by

Lauren Kobyiarz THE CHRONICLE

The fifth-ranked field hockey team played without a goalie for more than 10 minutes this weekend and won. Twice.

In a pair-of games against Radford and Davidson, head coach Beth Bozman replaced her goalie with a helmeted 11th field player, or “kickerback.”

With Duke holding a secure secondhalf lead in both contests Bozman used the opportunity DAVIDSON 0 to practice a IQ power play situaDUKE tion.

“If you’re RADFORD down by a goal in DUKE 13 the last couple minutes of a win, that’s a good and need to game you way to try,” Bozman said. “We’re just practicing, and Davidson was really upset with us for doing that, but you have to practice these things.”

Duke (9-2) blanked Radford (3-6) 100 Saturday and Davidson (3-7) 13-0 Sunday. The games were the fourth and fifth times Duke has outscored its opponents by more than 10 goals in 2004.

Scoring was not an obstacle for the Blue Devils this weekend as eight players notched at least one goal and nine dished out at least one assist. Senior Chrissie Murphy and sophomore Amy Stopford earned hat tricks Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

“It’s always a good feeling to put some in,” said Murphy, who added two assists against Radford and a goal versus Davidson. “It wasn’t the most important game

of our season bm it always gives you confidence going into next weekend.”

Throughout Sunday’s contest against

Davidson, corners provided productive scoring opportunities. During the first half, Duke scored three of its eight goals on corners. This weekend’s success on corners comes after converting just of 1of-12 opportunities in a 2-1 loss to North Carolina last weekend.

During the first half, Murphy, Gracie Sorbello and Stopford all scored on corners. Less than 12 minutes into the game senior Johanna Bischof received a pass on a corner. She faked and sent the ball to Stopford, who quickly knocked the ball into the goal. The score was Duke’s second of the day and the first for Stopford, who recorded her first career hat trick. The corner efficiency was indicative of the Blue Devils’ play throughout the game.

Davidson’s best scoring chance of the day came when the Blue Devils were in the kickerback formation. The Wildcats’ Kelly Brennan challenged kickerback Traci Stewart on the left side of the cage.

Junior defender Kirsten Bostrom aided Stewart in truncating Davidson’s offensive attempt.

“I was like, ‘Oh my god somebody stop her,”’ said midfielder Stewart, who was playing kickerback for the first time.

“I thought [Bozmari] was kidding at first because I didn’t know what a kickerback was. It’s something you have to get used to, I guess.”

Trailing sixth-ranked UCLA by seven strokes heading into the final day of play in Franklin, Tenn., the first-ranked women’s golf team stunned the competition and claimed the Mason Rudolph Championship by one stroke.

A poor opening round Friday put the Blue Devils 12 strokes off the pace, but the team rallied during the next two rounds to overcome the deficit.

“We knew we stood far behind, but with this team’s great chemistry and two days to play, we knew there was a strong possibility to come back and win,” head coach Dan Brooks said.

Even at seven back and trailing both UCLA and fifth-ranked Georgia, the Blue Devils only needed a one-over round Sunday to top its two opponents.

The Bulldogs and Bruins both faltered, shooting nine and seven over par respectively, and their troubles left the door open for the Blue Devils.

‘The word for the day was patience,” Brooks said. “Nothing wonderful happened, but the players had each other’s backs and helped each other to good rounds.”

Leading the way for the Blue Devils Sunday were team veterans Liz Janangelo and Brittany Lang, who were both notched one-under-par rounds.

Schneider, offense establish rhythm by

Jordan Koss

ruF. chronicle

Many people consider Duke’s 28-10 vietory over The Citadel (0-3) Saturday to be unimportant. The Bulldogs are in Division I-AA, so who cares that the Blue Devils (14) beat them? Heck, it appeared that less than 1,000 students showed up for the football game.

Even if The Citadel is not an ACC-caliber opponent, and even if most students value crazy parking lot over the footpartying aame ball game itself, the win is meaningful. First of ftlldlySfS all, the team, and particularly the offense, is finally developing an identity. Second of all, Duke finally won a game ‘The bottom line is, we did what we had to do to,” head coach Ted Roof said.

“Overall, I am just really pleased, and happy, to win a football game.”

At the quarterback position, Mike Schneider secured his place at the top of the depth chart, setting season highs by completing 17-of-24 passes for 190 yards and two touchdowns. Schneider appeared more comfortable in the pocket than he has all season, and the sophomore hit nine different receivers before the day was

through.

“You see Mike Schneider developing as a quarterback,” Roof said. “There are certain things that may not [usually] pop up, like putting us in the right check, working the game-clock, things like that. Mike’s just a sophomore, but he’s really made improvements, and I expect him to continue to do that.”

Curt Dukes found his niche as the option quarterback, supplementing Schneider’s strength in the pocket. He went into the game on several occasions and provid-

ed a change of pace to fool the Bulldogs’ defense. A lot of cridcs believe the conslant shuffling of the quarterbacks is bad for the rhythm of the offense. On several occasions Schneider was on a roll and Roof would sporadically put in Dukes—a move that seemed out of place with Schneider running the offense like he was.

The Blue Devils’ other offensive players, however, made Roofs coaching decisions seem correct.

“Dukes coming in and out, it actually makes it tougher for opposing defenses to prepare their game plans, with different quarterback attributes and stuff like that,” junior tight end/fullback Andy Roland said.

Roland had his breakout game of the season, hauling in both of Schneider’s touchdown passes. The junior looked particularly impressive on his second score, when Schneider threw a slightly high ball to the back-center of the end zone. Roland

reached up to make a tough fingertip catch while having the presence of mind to get his toes down in bounds. This is the type of heads-up play that Duke lacked during the first four games of the season.

Wide receiver Ronnie Elliott also asserted himself as an offensive threat. The junior more than doubled his season totals for receptions and yards by catching six balls for 80 yards. Elliott also had a memorable grab to highlight his day. One minute prior to Roland’s second touchdown, Schneider threw a rainbow pass toward the sideline, and Elliott seemingly came out ofnowhere to snare the pass and get his right foot down in time.

“I can’t control how he throws the ball, whether it’s high or low, I’ve just got to go get the ball,” Elliott said. “You’re always excited when you can make catches in crucial situations.”

At running back, four different players had at least four carries, demonstrating Roofs commitment to the running backby-committee strategy—at least until the return of junior Cedric Dargan, who is injured. Freshman Ronnie Drummer looked solid with 15 carries for 48 yards and marshaled a couple of key first downs in key situations. Tim Ball had three successive plays at the beginning of the fourth quarter when he showed his versatility, catching a ball out of the backfield and scampering away from defenders. Justin Boyle was unproductive until breaking out for an 83-yard touchdown run with 30 seconds left in the game.

“I like to have a couple of different backs because [the ACC] is a physical, physical league,” Roof said. “I thought all of them did a goodjob today, but there are some things we need to improve in too.”

CITADEL from The Chronicle page 1 Citadel quarterback Justin Hardin to throw under pressure. CJ. Woodard picked off Hardin returning the pick 20 yards to the Citadel 23.

“He made it a little easy for me because he threw it off his back foot and it floated a little bit,” Woodard said. “I took advantage of that and ran up under it. It seemed like it took forever to come down.”

After weathering The Citadel’s storm, Duke, which recorded a season-best 397 yards of total offense, marched 77 yards down the field to take a 21-10 lead and seal the victory. Faced with a 3rd-and-9 on its own 47-yard line, Schneider lofted a ball toward the left sideline. Ronnie Elliott came across the field to snag the ball, keeping one foot in bounds for a 22-yard reception. Elliott finished the game with career highs of six receptions and 80 yards.

After Ronnie Drummer ran for a first down to the Bulldogs’ 21, Schneider hit tight end/fullback Andy Roland with a high ball in the back of the end zone for his second touchdown of the contest.

“It’s basically just a vertical up the field, the safety flowed over, Mike [Schneider] read it and threw the ball in the back of the end zone, and I caught the ball for a touchdown,” Roland said.

Even though they played Division I-AA competition, the win gives the Blue Devils something to build on going into their bye week. Roof said the team improved in many of the facets of the game that hurt them a week ago against Maryland.

“It was a win that we desperately needed, and I was very proud of our football team and the way they hung in there and executed especially on third down,” Roof said. “We did some good things, especially in the kicking game. But overall we got a ‘W’ so it’s something we desperately need-

Ed and it’s something I’m proud of.”

The Blue Devils offense converted on 10 of its 16 third down chances and stopped The Citadel on all but two ofits 12 attempts. Capitalizing on these situations, Duke won the time of possession batde and kept its defense off the field.

‘We executed much better on third down on both sides of the ball, and as a result you see the differential in the plays,” Roof said. ‘We ran 68 [plays] and they ran 59 as opposed to last week 100 vs. 48. Obviously we’ve learned some lessons and hopefully they stick and continue to build as we get back into the league.”

Duke’s special teams also helped the team jump out to a 7-0 lead just minutes into the game. Daniel Charbonnet blocked a Citadel punt, and as the ball rolled toward the goalline, Mike Adams kicked the ball out the back of the end zone, drawing an illegal kicking penalty. As a result of the infraction, Duke took over at the one-yard line, and Schneider dove into the end zone on the first play of the drive. Chris Dapolito, Duke’s backup quarterback playing on the special teams unit, partially blocked another punt attempt during the second quarter.

‘You get two punt blocks in a season usually, but we got two in one game,” Roof said. “That’s something that we can continue to build off—the play of the special teams.

They’re big plays, plays that swap the field, as opposed to being put back on the short-field.”

In the waning moments of the fourth quarter, freshman Justin Boyle added the final touchdown when he ran 83 yards.

The Blue Devils’ next game is in two weeks at Georgia Tech, giving a number of injured players a chance to heal.

“Obviously, we have some things we need to go back and work on,” Roof said. “It gives us a chance to polish some things up and grow. Like I said, just get some guys back and hopefully that will happen in a couple of weeks against Georgia Tech because we need it.”

Virginia Tech rebounds against unbeaten Big East foe Vincent Fuller intercepted Rasheed Marshall’s pass with 18 seconds left and Virginia Tech beat West Virginia 19-13 Saturday, Jeopardizing the Mountaineers'

“We really played better defense and blocked a lot better on Sunday,” Nagel said. “We also communicated a lot better and moved the ball around more than on Friday.”

The match against the Seminoles, Duke’s first five-game match of the season, helped prepare the Blue Devils to go the distance only two days later against Miami.

“Even though [a fifth game] is a painful situation to be in, we’re going to benefit from it,” Nagel said. ‘We really hung tough [Friday] and worked together and kept being aggressive, and it brought our team closer together.

It was our first five-game match, but our kids weren’t thinking about that. They were just thinking about getting the next point.”

Beyond helping the team’s confidence, the two wins are very important for the Blue Devils for other reasons, coach Nagel said.

‘These are both great wins for us—two ACC wins on the road—when every win is a tough one in the ACC,” Nagel said. “Also, we only get to play each of these teams once, so these wins could be very helpful in terms of tiebreakers and seeding at the end of the season.”

W. SOCCER from page 1 “We’ve really been working in practice because we had a couple of rough games at the start,” said Lipsher. “The goalkeeper and the defense really weren’t communicating well, but we’ve worked on it a lot in practice, and it’s just all coming together.”

Duke continued its winning streak Sunday against Miami, despite falling behind 1-0 early in the game. Church attributed the Hurricanes’ early lead to the fact that their players were more rested than the Blue Devils, who were still recovering from Friday’s game. Junior Heidi Hollenbeck tied the score late in the half, however, and this goal proved to change the players’ attitudes going into the second period.

“It was important for our momentum that we ded the game before the half,” Church said. “We made a few substitutions at the second quarter, and the fresh legs really made a difference.”

After an evenly matched first half, Duke outplayed Miami in the second, outshooting the Hurricanes 13-2 and scoring three goals. Midfielder Carmen Bognanno, forward Sarah McCabe and midfielder Rebecca Moros all scored in the last 17 minutes of the game, earning the Blue Devils a 4-1 win.

Miami’s goal against keeper Kate Straka ended the Blue Devils’ school record shutout streak. McCluskey also failed to score in Sunday’s game, ending a school record six-game scoring streak. McCluskey did claim the number two spot on Duke’s all-time scoring list with her goal against Florida State, the 36th ofher career.

This weekend’s wins move Duke into the third spot in ACC standings, behind Virginia and North Carolina. The Blue Devils play at Virginia next Saturday in another important conference contest.

“It shows that we can fight through adversity. Because we’ve always been up, it’s always been easy for us, but this put us to the test. It shows us that we’re not just a team that could play ahead, but that we can come from behind.”'

With the game tied for the second time and just minutes remaining, overtime looked likely for the second year in a row. With only 1:18 left on the clock, however, Kramer scored his third game-winning goal of the season as the crowd exploded in cheers, and the Blue Devils leaped into each others’ arms. Off of a corner kick, Blake Camp kept the ball alive in front of the net. As the ball came down, Kramer dove, heading it into the bottom left corner of the goal between the Tar Heel keeper and the post.

“It was just a big adrenaline rush,” Kramer said.

“Whether I scored or anyone scored, it would have been great either way. I just love that I could help out the team.”

In typical Duke-North Carolina fashion, the teams were ready to battle from the start. The Tar Heels, though, struck first 15 minutes into the contest on a fluke goal. A North Carolina attacker was pitted against a Duke defender in a one-on-one battle near the Blue Devil box.

The ball was kicked toward charging players and goalie Justin Trowbridge tried to send it out, but the Duke keeper deflected the ball right back into his own net.

and Duke had trouble getting going. Lang shot a oneunder 71 and sat in fourth place individually. All of the other Blue Devils struggled and, besides Lang, nobody shot better than four over on the day. The top-ranked Blue Devils found themselves 13 over and in 10th place.

After 2003 NCAA Player of the Year Janangelo shot a disappointing opening-round 80, the junior notched the tournament’sbest single-day score by firing a five-under 67 and vaulting her team up the standings Saturday.

“I played poorly the day before and went out Saturday ready to turn it around,” Janangelo said. “I sunk all my close putts and gave myself opportunities with a

good long game.”

On the 15th hole Saturday, the team was a combined over for the day and far behind leader UCLA. The Blue Devils, however, made a run, shooting an impressive seven under par on the final three holes to position themselves for Sunday’s comeback.

Aiding the charge Saturday were sophomore Anna Grzebien, Aazam-Zanganeh and freshman Jennifer Pandolfi. Grzebien joined Janangelo under par with her twounder 70, and the struggling Pandolfi found her game when the team needed a boost, scoring a one-over 73.

“It felt really good to go out and help the team this time, and I hope I can continue to help even more in the future,” Pandolfi said. Brooks was thrilled with the freshman’s performance Saturday and said Pandolfi played with a great deal of fortitude and maturity as she rebounded from an early-round double bogey.

The team has now opened the season with two consecutive championships and will look for three straight at the Tar Heel Invitational in Chapel Hill next weekend. The Blue Devils won North Carolina’s tournament in 2003 as part of their perfect fall season.

“We really knew we could do this,” Janangelo said.

‘This win means more to me than other blow-out wins since the team was so supportive of each other and was cheering constandy throughout the weekend.” two

just 35 seconds into the game Saturday. Hilary Linton sailed the ball past the Radford defense to Dudek, who shot it by Radford goalie Amy Dietz from the left side. The Blue Devils continued to attack for the remainder of the game, tallying six goals and 40 shots.

Bozman was happy with the team’s weekend performance against a pair of unranked teams. The Blue Devils will resume their play against elite competition Saturday when they travel to College Park to take on No. 2 Maryland.

“We’re on the right track,” Bozman said. “We’re definitely moving forward, we keep tweaking things every week and we think we’re in a good place.”

What Erin read: “Although The Catcher in the Rye

caused considerable controversy when it was first published in 1951, the book—the account of three disoriented days in the life of a troubled Sixteenyear-old boy—was an instant hit.

Within two weeks after its release, it was listed number one on The New York Times best-seller list, and it stayed there for thirty weeks. It remained immensely popular for many years, especially among teenagers and young adults, largely because of its antifresh, brash style and establishment attitudes —typical attributes of many people emerging from the physical and psychological

INDIA from page 2 nation. The rebels say they are seeking to protect their ethnic identities, and allege that the federal government has exploited the resources in the mineral- and oilrich region.

The Indian government denies the allegation, and has already signed peace agreements with several groups. In return, the former militants have been given jobs and limited administrative control within the Indian nation.

Some 15,000 people have been killed since Naga rebels began fighting nearly six decades ago. The rebels want special status for Nagaland state, where some 2 million Nagas —most Christians—live in predominantly Hindu India.

But one Naga separatist group engaged in talks with the government de-

nounced the attacks “We have set up a special investigating team and have got vital clues as to the identity of those behind the attack on innocent civilians,” Kraibo Chawang, of the separatist National Socialist Council of Nagaland, told The Associated Press.

He said the assaults were “aimed at derailing and sabotaging our peace talks with the Indian government.”

Nagaland’s death toll stood at 28 Sunday, while Assam’s rose to 29. No arrests had been made in the two states, police said. No immediate claim of responsibility was made.

A bomb exploded late Sunday near a market in Bijni, 125 miles west of Assam state’s capital of Gauhati, leaving three dead. Shortly afterward, another explosion killed another man and left 25 injured in nearby Gauripur along India’s border with Bangladesh.

Guerrillas set off a bomb at a tea plan-

Also in Borhat, suspected rebels targeted government-run Oil India Ltd.’s natural gas pipeline with a land mine blast. The extent of damage was not immediately known.

Two suspected Boroland rebels were killed when explosives they were carrying detonated in Assam’s Sonitpur district, Press Trust of India reported.

A bomb also went off in a market in Dhekiagula, a village 105 miles north of Gauhati, wounding 15 people. Another bomb wounded a shop owner at Dabosal in western Assam, said A.K. Bhutani, the district magistrate. In the nearby town of Chitra, suspected militants blew up an electrical transmission tower, snapping power supply to the area, Bhutani said.

Federal Home Minister Shivraj Patil visited Assam and Nagaland Sunday to as-

Rescuers workers cleared the debris throughout the day. Severed limbs lay scattered across the floor, along with torn pieces of clothing, shoes and belongings of passengers.

“It was a ghastly sight,” Philip said.

Troops patrolled the streets in Nagaland state to prevent further bloodshed.

“People are in shock at the manner in which innocent people waiting to catch trains have been Idlled. This has never happened in Nagaland’s long history of insurgency,” said Gaingam, a Naga tribal leader and peace activist from Dimapur.

Kerry succeeded in first debate On Thursday night, Sen. John Kerry had the opportunity to speak to 55 million Americans and demonstrate his fitness to be commander-in-chief. He accomplished this task in remarkable fashion. On the most important issue facing the country this election year, the war in Iraq, John Kerry cleared up the misconceptions perpetuated by the George W. Bush campaign and the conservative media about his position. Kerry articulated a platform on Iraq that is not only consistent, but has been increasingly demonstrated to be correct as well.

As he has acknowledged since discussion of the invasion began over two years ago, Kerry reiterated that while he recognized Saddam Hussein posed a potential threat to the United States, there was a right way and a wrong way to deal with him. Bush chose the wrong way, and America is now paying a grave price for his miscalculations. Kerry also made clear that, though we made mistakes in how we entered the war in Iraq, it remains a fight that the United States must win and, with new leadership, can win.

Faced with a devastating critique of his handling of foreign policy and a compelling alternative for where to go from here, the president could do nothing but repeat his

talking points. He constantly returned to discussing the danger of “mixed messages” even as his opponent was delivering a message that was crystal clear. Bush was visibly raided: pausing and stammering during his own remarks, fidgeting, slouching, and looking away in annoyance as Kerry laid out the many mistakes the his opponent has made in trying to lead this country.

Demeanor wasn’t the president’s unly problem, as he made numerous substantive errors as well on the feasibility of bilateral talks in North Korea, the reasons for Libyan disarmament, the training of Iraqi troops, the “bringing to justice” of A.Q. Khan, and oth-

ers. In contrast, Kerry was firm, resolute and able to deliver clear and concise answers on every topic.

Only one man on the stage Thursday night demonstrated the stature, gravitas, and command of the issues befitting a commander-in-chief. That man was not our current president, but rather our next president, Senator John F. Kerry.

Herbert’s assertions I am appalled that The Chronicle wouldpublish an editorial of misinformation like the Sept. 30 column entitled “Back to Reality”

by Amelia Herbert. The article was nothing but propaganda worthy of Michael Moore.

She fails to realize that the “facts” she states are simply untrue and in many cases unrelated to reality.

There is simply no correlation between denouncing rap music and Dick Cheney cursing. One degrades and has been known to cause violence among a minority group, another is just a man expressing himself in earnest. Possibly wrongly, but still he is not promoting violence or degrading a people.

Her comment on jails is absolutely absurd.

Black students have a guaranteed spot in schools as much as any student in America.

Jails are over crowded as it is, and there is no reason why, as she insultingly puts it, that a black individual won’t have a place in class, as opposed to a jail cell.

In saying this she insults blacks by degrading them to mere pawns of instincts. It’s saying that like some kind of animal, students without schooling will commit crimes, which

are

insulting

isn’t true. Every person makes that decision for themselves.

She comments on drug sentencing, again insulting people. But this time instead of blacks she insults the “wealthy white man.” She says that crack users (generally of a poorer class) get harsher sentencing than cocaine users (of the wealthy class). This is blatantly untrue. No drug offender will ever “walk free” like Herbert states, and the only reason why sentencing might not be equal is simply that good representation costs money, and if you can’t afford it you will endure the consequences. It has always been thus, but still no drug offender will not have at least probation, since there are minimum requirements of time for offenses. But Herbert would like to not see these so that she can perpetuate her lies.

However, I hope in the future that readers take these kinds of articles with a “grain of salt,” because Herbert’s article was an ocean of it.

of the draft?

If

you’re in college, then you’ve probably heard a disturbing rumor: that President George W. Bush will, if reelected, reinstate the military draft.

It’s coming from a variety of sources. Filmmaker Michael Moore is speaking on campuses as part of his “Slacker Uprising Tour” and telling students that the president has already decided on and devised a second-term draft. CBS’s “Evening News” interviewed a distressed woman last Tuesday who said she was a Republican but would vote for a Democrat if it meant keeping her sons from being drafted. “Rock the Vote” is promoting a campaign that warns young voters about a draft through literature, videos, and “You Have Been Drafted” cards. And some professors have been telling their students that a plan to reinstate the draft this spring is in the works.

The draft rumor is getting wide circulation, and it’s no doubt a scary one. Problem is, it’s completely untrue. There is literally not a shred of evidence to indicate that a draft is in the works, and there are plenty of reasons why it cannot and will not happen.

For what it’s worth, every member of the Bush administration has been matter offact in stating that a draft will not happen. The president has said “we don’t need the draft” and will not have it. Vice President Dick Cheney says an all-volunteer force “works extraordinarily well.”

Nathan carleton Secretary of Defense poker Donald Rumsfeld calls the suggestion of a Bush-initiated draft “absolute nonsense.”

Others concur. Bob Dole and Sen. John McCain regularly attest to the lack of need for a draft, and Newsweek reports that draft rumors are only that, rumors. Selective Service spokesman Dan Amon calls the possibility of a reinstated draft an “urban legend” and notes that “if the White House is planning a draft, you’d think they might have told us about it.”

As stated, there are several reasons why a draft will not be reinstated. One is that the military itself is strongly against it for reasons of discipline and cohesiveness. An even bigger one is that President Bush would not even have the Constitutional authority to reinstate a draft if he wanted to.

Indeed, a reinstated draft can only occur if the House of Representatives and Senate pass legislation ordering it. This is obviously not going to happen, as the ability of Congressmen to filibuster means that such legislation would not pass without 60 percent support. And the need for legislation also means that a draft could not be reinstated without significant debate—debate that would no doubt galvanize public opposition and make a draft political suicide.

It’s also difficult to see why the president would want a draft. Even a Bush-hater like Michael Moore who does not trust the president’s word contradicts himself in spreading the rumor. If the president truly were a trigger-happy warmonger, then he would logically oppose a draft, as it would make it nearly impossible to order another preemptive strike. Moore should also be persuaded by Newsday columnist Sheryl McCarthy, who argues that “an administration that’s headed mostly by men who avoided the Vietnam War and that panders to the upper classes is not about to alienate its core supporters by exposing their children to a draft when we’re already at war.”

In reality, the individuals most responsible for keeping the rumor alive are Sen. John Kerry and his supporters. Sept. 22, Kerry told voters in West Palm Beach that he couldn’t say whether or not Bush would institute a draft given “the way he has gone about this war.” Kerry’s surrogates have been more explicit, with Max Cleland and Howard Dean warning students about a draft and U.S. Rep. Charlie Rangel drafting a meaningless piece of legislation to reinstate it.

That President Bush’s opponent and his campaign are keeping the draft rumor alive shows exactly why it was started in the first place. 2004 is an election year, and that means that as far as John Kerry is concerned, a reckless rumor is fair game as long as it will get more votes.
