A different kind of March Madness in 1912 Lawhorn’s Lawrence

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

D

on’t kid yourself, Lawrence. This March Madness thing isn’t anything new. Madness has been a March trait in Lawrence for at least a century. On this very day 101 years ago — Sunday, March 24, 1912 — Lawrence residents awoke to 19 inches of snow, the aftermath of the largest single snowstorm in the city’s history. The Monday paper (the

bosses back then gave us the day off on Sundays) was full of talk about the Spirit of ’76. That would be the spirit of 1876, when the city had another massive March snowstorm that dumped 17 inches on the city. The lead paragraph of the 1912 article went like this: “The spirit of ’76 was abroad Saturday, only instead of being the spirit of 1776 it belonged to 1876. The heaviest snowfall ever

recorded by the University for March was in 1876 when 17 inches fell, but Saturday the spirit of that year returned with renewed vigor, and so vigorous was it that it did not disappear until the ground was covered with 19 inches of snow. Rather deep that.” Indeed, rather deep that. But hey, it’s March. Madness happens. Please see MARCH, page 6A

No. 12 seed Jayhawks stun Buffaloes, 67-52 By Arnie Stapleton Associated Press

BOULDER, COLO. — Angel Goodrich and Carolyn Davis each scored 14 points and 12th-seeded Kansas upset No. 5 seed Colorado 67-52 Saturday night on the Buffaloes’ home floor.

Kansas (19-13) used a 15-0 spurt spanning halftime to take control and advance to face fourth-seeded South Carolina on Monday at the Coors Events Center. The Buffaloes (25-7) saw their first trip to the NCAA tournament in nine years come to an unexpected end.

Lawrence soon may be entering a new big-ticket era. Construction has started on an $18 million expansion of the Lawrence Public Library, commissioners have signaled support for a $64 million sewage treatment plant and signed agreements for a $25 million recreation center, and Lawrence Police Department officials are lobbying for $20 million to $40 million worth of facility and personnel upgrades. In the second of a series of articles about issues in the 2013 Lawrence City Commission race, the JournalWorld asked the six candidates for their views on some of the larger issues that could have an impact on the city’s finances. Here are the issues we focused on with candidates:

Water and sewer rates: Staff members have presented a multiyear rate plan that would increase water and sewer rates by about 6 percent annually for the next five years, well above the recent average increases of about 2.5 percent per year.

$64 million sewage treatment plant: The facility — slated to be built southeast of Lawrence on the south side of the Wakarusa River — would be the city’s second facility. As proposed, work would begin now and be completed by about 2018. If the plant is built too Please see ISSUES, page 2A

early, the city’s population may not be large enough to justify the expense. If construction is started too late, the lack of additional sewage treatment capacity could hinder growth. — Taste and odor issues: The city currently is estimating it may cost about $19 million to add equipment to the city’s two water treatment plants to address periodic, harmless taste and odor issues that occur when certain algae levels are high at Clinton Lake or in the Kansas River.

Police needs: The department currently is split between two facilities — one downtown and one in west Lawrence. Questions about the size, condition and efficiency of the facilities have been raised by Lawrence Police Department leaders. The police chief also has warned the department needs more officers to maintain current levels of service.

Long-range planning: Questions have emerged over whether the city has created an adequate plan for future big-ticket projects. Here’s a summary of what each candidate had to say:

Mike Amyx Amyx, the lone incumbent in the race, voted for the recent increases in water and sewer rates. He said he disliked the increases but believed the projects they would fund represented a “long-term investment in the community.� Amyx A f t e r years of uncertainty, Amyx said he now believes it is the right time to proceed with the new sewer plant. He said he was swayed by the fact that the plant isn’t just needed for growth reasons but also to comply with EPA wet-weather regulations. Amyx said he wants to see more data on the idea to add equipment to address taste and odor issues at the water plants. He said the issue is worth considering, but “It is a great deal of money for a few events a year.� He said “there is no doubt� police department facilities are going to need to be upgraded. He said the City Commission “quickly needs to discuss the issue.� Amyx stopped short of saying that a tax increase would be needed to pay for the project, but said that is a possibility. He said he also wants to explore a joint facility with Douglas County or other agencies that could help defray costs. On planning, Amyx said he thinks the city has had good conversations about the community’s longrange plan. Instead, he ADELINE OUISE INCH said concerns over longrange planning probably Madeline L.

mately may need to be constructed. But Chestnut said he also wants to look at alternatives — such as using existing space elsewhere in town — in an effort to cut down on the cost of the project. Chestnut said he was not ready to concede the project will need a tax increase. Chestnut said he does believe the city needs to add more police officers. On planning, Chestnut said the community hasn’t had enough dialogue about long-term projects, and community members often end up asking “what is next.� He said the city needs to create a more formal seven- to 10year plan for funding and building projects.

Scott Criqui Criqui said he understands the need for water and sewer rate increases, but believes past commissions “could have done a better job prioritizing spending so we could have held that increase down.� He said he’s heard compelling information from Realtors, builders and others that a new sewer plant Criqui is needed, but he said he still needed additional information before he could say if now is the right time to start the project. Criqui said the occasional taste and odor issues in the city’s water is worth studying more but that may be more of an “inconvenience� rather than something worth raising rates over. On police needs, Criqui said it is “pretty clear� facility needs will have to be addressed. But Criqui said it also is clear to him that the issue should be put to a public vote because of its price tag. He said he would hope there would be a way to do the project without a tax increase, but “I haven’t been presented with anything other than a tax enhancement to address that need.� Criqui said a lack of longrange planning by the city was one of the major reasons he entered the race. He said other communities have been successful with “community visioning processes� that create a real communitywide conversation about city priorities. Jeremy Farmer Farmer said the proposed rate increases will hurt low-income residents, but he believes waiting to fix water and sewer infrastructure will cost everyone more in the long run. He said several of the current projects should have been made a higher priority by past commissions. Farmer said now is the right time to start work on a new sewer plant in order to ensure the city has the necessary infrastructure to support future jobs. He said he is not yet convinced the city needs to undertake “wholesale changes� to address the water’s taste and odor issue. Farmer said the Police Department has “lots Farmer of needs,� and they are reaching the point where they will start affecting the service levels of the department. He said the city should commit to building a centralized police facility to house all operations of the department. “It is going to be one of those pay now or pay more later type of deals,� Farmer said. He said he would want a tax increase to be used only as a “last resort.� He said he hopes increased economic development activity will boost tax revenues to pay for a police facility. On long-range planning, Farmer said he wants to look at a more detailed multiyear funding plan for large projects, but he said the commission needs to do more to get residents involved too. “The saying is bud-

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD gets reflect priorities, and those budget hearings are very lightly attended by the public,� he said.

Terry Riordan Riordan said a multiyear plan to increase water and sewer rates won’t be pleasant, but he understands the need for it. He “applauds the city for laying it out� so the public can know what to expect in the future. Riordan said now is “absolutely the right time� to begin work on a new sewage treatment plant. Riordan is less sure if a large investment to address taste and odor issues with the water is warranted. “I’m kind of 50-50 on that. Let’s do the other things and see if we can afford it,� he said. On the police issue, Riordan said he Riordan believes the city has done a good job of compensating police officers, but has done poorly in keeping up with facility needs. He said the current facilities are “inefficient and somewhat dangerous.� He also said staffing levels on the Police Department need to be increased. He said he would try to make Police Department improvements without a tax increase, but said, “I don’t think anybody knows where that money can come from right now.� He said the Police Department needs are an example of how the community could do better with long-range planning. “The library, the recreation center and the Police Department needs all should have been brought up at once so the public could have commented on all of them,� Riordan said. “We haven’t done as well with that as we should have.� Leslie Soden Soden said she is more likely to support the proposed water and sewer rate increases than oppose them, but she is disappointed in how the city has handled the process. She said she wanted the city to consider using some of the $25 million it proposes for the recreation center to instead reduce property tax bills. She said that would have lessened the blow of needed water and sewer rate increases. Soden said she also is leaning toward supporting the proposed sewer treatment plant, because she is “optimistic about our city growing.� She said she would take a more Soden cautious approach on the water taste and odor issue. She would propose installing equipment only at one of the city’s two watertreatment plants, in order to test the concept. Caution also is the word on a new police facilities building. “I don’t see an urgent need for a new police station right now,� Soden said. Instead she wants to monitor what the department has been able to do with the recent budget increase it received to add more officers and upgrade equipment. On long-term planning, Soden said she thinks the city has done a reasonable job of trying to project its future needs. — City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

Disability advocates speak out against new bill

Let the egg hunt begin!

By Scott Rothschild

Tax cuts not actually cuts, Democrats say By Scott Rothschild

srothschild@ljworld.com

Advocates for people with developmental disabilities are expressing alarm over passage of a bill in a Senate committee that would prevent Community Developmental Disability Organizations, such as Cottonwood Inc. in Lawrence, from providing some services. “We have a very efficient system,” said Cottonwood’s Chief Executive Officer Sharon Spratt. “This will gut our system,” she said. The bill would limit the services a CDDO could provide clients, including prohibiting a CDDO from conducting both eligibility determinations for services for a person and also providing those services. The bill, Senate Substitute for House Bill 2155, is scheduled for debate before the full Senate on Monday. The legislation, advanced by Republicans on the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee, also would allow people to obtain case management from a managed care organization. Carole Koppes, whose daughter Sara receives services from Cottonwood, said she can’t imagine Sara’s case manager not being at Cottonwood. “It would be a nightmare,” Koppes said. “Your case manager is the first person you go to.

SATURDAY’S COOL TEMPERATURES didn’t stop more than 350 children from taking the field at Hobbs Park to hunt for Easter eggs. The egg hunt was hosted by The Greenhouse Culture, and businesses donated more than 4,000 prizes for the event. LEFT: Dressed in a bunny outfit, Jenna Joseph, 2, joins in on the fun.

Easter event brings out kids, community by Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com

Children equipped with coats, gloves and baskets surrounded Hobbs Park on Saturday morning as they waited to rush the field in search of Easter eggs. The Easter egg hunt, hosted by The Greenhouse Culture, had more than 350 children registered to participate in the free community event. The eggs on the field weren’t filled with the candy the Easter Bunny usually leaves. Instead, the eggs had a slip of paper inside of them. The paper was a coupon for a redeemable

prize at one of 20 businesses that sponsored the egg hunt. After the children collected the couponfilled eggs, they had to go to the business to receive their prize. Amy Wells, Olathe, said the event was her daughter’s first Easter egg hunt. She especially liked the idea of having the coupons in the eggs and then walking down Massachusetts Street to get the prizes instead of just grabbing the eggs and leaving. “It makes it more associated with the sponsors because you actually have to go there,” Wells said.

Event coordinator Kalah Sipp said The Greenhouse Culture got the idea for the different type of egg hunt from a similar event hosted in Wellsville. “We just wanted an opportunity to bring out the community and bring local businesses ... We wanted it to be really a whole community thing,” Sipp said. The businesses donated more than 4,000 prizes ranging from candy and children’s trinkets to free food and coupons for parents. The children and their parents had until 2 p.m. to redeem their coupons at the businesses.

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback and his conservative Republican colleagues in the Legislature are pushing through tax changes that they call tax cuts. But Democrats say that is not accurate. While the Republican proposals would reduce state income taxes, or are at least aimed in that direction, those plans include tax increases in other areas that disproportionately fall on middleand low-income It’s Kansans, Demojust a crats say. “It’s just a classic classic tax shift,” said House Mi- tax shift. nority Leader We are Paul Davis, D- raising Lawrence. “We taxes are raising taxes on middle-in- on middle-income come Kansans Kansans in order to in order to pay pay for tax cuts that for tax cuts that primarily bene- primarily benefit the fit the wealthy.” wealthy.” The tax plan approved by — House Minority Leader Paul c o n s e r v a t i v e Davis, D-Lawrence. Republicans in Senate would cut income taxes by $1.87 billion over five years, according to a comparison of various tax plans by the nonpartisan Kansas Legislative Research Department. But that plan keeps in effect the 6.3 percent state sales tax, which under current law is supposed to decrease to 5.7 percent on July 1. Brownback has also wanted to keep the sales tax at 6.3 percent. Making that higher sales tax rate permanent will cost taxpayers $1.5 billion over five years, the analysis said. And higher sales taxes are more of a burden on poor families because the tax takes a greater portion of their incomes as compared with wealthier people. In addition, Kansas is one of the few states that charges the full

The possibility of dealing with a managed care organization for longterm services for her daughter doesn’t sound plausible, Koppes said. “I can’t imagine calling someone in a call center,� she said. Tony Schwager of Lawrence, whose son Anthony’s case manager is at Cottonwood, said “case management is a people thing; it’s not a numbers thing.� Schwager said he supports efforts to reduce costs and make operations more efficient, but added, “You don’t fix things that aren’t broken.� The bill is part of the

. battle between advocates for people with developmental disabilities and Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration over KanCare, the governor’s overhaul of the Medicaid system, which put most of the state’s 350,000 Medicaid clients into managed care plans run by for-profit insurance companies. CDDOs have argued that those companies can handle medical needs, but aren’t able to handle longterm support services for their clients. Brownback agreed to delaying placing those services in KanCare, but under current law they will be brought in next Jan. 1. But advocates are pushing for permanent separation from KanCare for those long-term services.

sales tax on groceries. The Senate plan also phases out most income tax deductions as income tax rates drop, which will increase tax revenue by another $910 million over the five years, according to the legislative staff analysis. Including some other proposed changes, the Senate bill would net the state $497 million in new revenues during the next five years. “It actually takes more money out of the pockets of Kansas families than it puts in during the first four years of implementation,� said Sen.

Kansas zoo’s new habitat aims to meet cats’ needs GARDEN CITY (AP) — Jaguars love water, bobcats must hide. So, the staff at the Lee Richardson Zoo is taking pains to meet the needs of each breed as the new Cat Canyon habitat nears completion. The new habitat will replace a “Cats of the Americas� exhibit that was built in 1980 and lacks some of the features and amenities that have evolved in zookeeping over the decades. Zoo director Kathy Sexson pointed out some of the key features during a recent tour of Cat Canyon, which is expected to open in August or September, The Garden City Telegram reported. Among the amenities are dead trees for climbing. “They hauled in some large dead-fall that we had kind of salvaged from the zoo — just trees we would have taken down anyway and would have been

hauled off,� Sexson said, adding that the animals like to climb, which is also why there are roofs on the exhibits. Brian Nelson, executive director of Friends of Lee Richardson Zoo, the zoo’s fundraising arm, said each of the spaces made available for the cats will have features specific to the natural habitat of each. There are two jaguars and two bobcats. One feature that jaguars like, Nelson said, are the heated rocks situated right next to the viewing area. “So that draws them up to sit right in front of the windows where people can see them up close,� he said. “Jaguars are actually a cat that loves water, so they have a nice big pool, too.� In the bobcats’ yard, one of the trees is a hollowedout stump.

“Bobcats are a lot smaller, so that (stump) is something they can duck into,� Nelson said. “Their yard is smaller, but they like the height more than the space, so it’s going to be more of a built-up exhibit.� Once construction is completed, zoo staff will build feeding chutes equipped with safety features that will allow keepers to feed the cats in their stalls. Sexson said this will also prevent food from spoiling in the sun. The zoo had a fifth “Cat of the Americas� — a beloved mountain lion named Sherman — when construction of the habitat began. But Sherman, who arrived as a 2-monthold cub in 2001 after begin confiscated from a northwest Kansas home, had to be euthanized in December after developing health problems.

Legislature made to sunset the temporary sales tax,� he said. The temporary increase in the sales tax was passed in 2010 by a coalition of Democrats and moderate Republicans to shore up the budget, which had been decimated by revenue shortfalls during the recession. But Brownback and Republican leaders have argued for the past two years that reducing the income tax is key to stimulating the economy. The plan approved by Republicans in the House allows the state sales tax to decrease to 5.7 percent on July 1 and would chip away at the income tax if annual state revenues increase more than 2 percent. Itemized deductions, such as the popular home mortgage interest and property tax deductions, would start to be

reduced. Davis has called the plan a $400 million tax increase because the lost deductions over five years will bring in more tax revenue than the proposed cuts, according to the legislative analysis. Rep. Richard Carlson, R-St. Marys and chairman of the House tax committee, said that criticism was “highly misleading� because it did not take into account the lowered sales tax. Carlson defended the House plan, saying that lower income Kansans will benefit by the reduction in the sales tax, and lowering income tax rates. But Davis said the House and Senate proposals are being made simply to keep afloat last year’s tax cuts signed into law by Brownback. “It’s a tax increase that is being forwarded be-

cause of this reckless income tax reduction bill that was passed last year that we cannot afford. It is way too big,� Davis said. Last year, Brownback signed into law cuts that exempt the owners of 191,000 partnerships, sole proprietorships and other businesses from income taxes. In addition, the law decreased the individual income tax rates, with the top rate dropping to 4.9 percent from 6.45 percent, and the lowest rate from 3.5 percent to 3 percent. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668

BRIEFLY Suit filed in JJ’s restaurant blast

Meeting to answer public’s questions

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — A lawsuit has been filed over a deadly natural gas explosion that destroyed a Kansas City restaurant. The Kansas City Star reported that the suit was filed Friday in Jackson County Circuit Court on behalf of six employees of JJ’s restaurant. They were among more a dozen people injured in the Feb. 19 explosion that also killed a restaurant server. Defendants include Missouri Gas Energy, a utility locating service, Time Warner Cable and its subcontractor, Olathe-based Heartland Midwest. A Missouri Gas Energy official has said that Heartland Midwest reported hitting a natural gas line with an underground borer before the blast. The suit alleges that gas company employees told people that it was safe to remain in the area, near the Country Club Plaza shopping and entertainment district.

Voters will have a chance to get their questions about the proposed $92.5 million school bond issue answered during a town hall meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the Carnegie Building, 200 W. Ninth. The event is sponsored by the local Voter Education Coalition. The meeting will begin with a 15- to 20-minute presentation of information and perspectives on both sides of the bond issue question. School board members Shannon Kimball and Rick Ingram and a representative of the Yes for Lawrence group will speak on behalf of the bond issue. Jim Mullins, a local representative of Americans for Prosperity, will offer opposing viewpoints. The bulk of the evening will be devoted to questions from members of the public. The meeting will last until 8:30 p.m. unless the audience runs out of questions earlier than that.

WHEEL GENIUS

Road work planned this week Lawrence City construction projects are now mapped at lawks.us/constructionmap.

The Kansas Department of Transportation has suspended a road maintenance project that was scheduled to begin Monday on East 23rd Street between Haskell and Barker avenues. KDOT said the project has been suspended until further notice because of cold temperatures and the likelihood of snow this weekend. The project is expected to take three days and calls for milling and overlay on either side of the new bridge. During the project, traffic in both directions will be reduced to one lane between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. KDOT said it will make an announcement when the work is rescheduled.

Starting Monday, a stretch of Old U.S. Highway 59, from North 800

Road at Pleasant Grove to North 900 Road will be reduced to one lane each way during daylight hours for milling and overlay, as well as guardrail installation. That project is scheduled to continue through Friday

The city will continue reworking the entire roadway of Iowa Street from Bob Billings Parkway south to the Irving Hill Overpass. Major delays are expected as there will only be one lane of traffic open in each direction. The city recommends that drivers avoid the area and use 23rd and Sixth streets to go east and west and Kasold Drive or Kentucky Street to go north and south. Construction is projected to last through May 2013.

Street concrete will be reworked this week on Nicklaus Drive, Palmer Drive and Hogan Drive, east of Inverness Drive. Through traffic will generally be main-

tained, but there may be street closures.

Traffic on Kansas Highway 10/East 23rd Street will be reduced to one lane periodically (east and west), and the speed limit in the work zone will be set at 45 mph as geometric improvements are made to the intersection of 23rd Street and O’Connell Road to accommodate turn lanes and a new traffic signal. Intersection work will be completed by Friday, but the signalization will not be completed until June.

K.C. fights violent crime with carrot-stick program By Bill Draper Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, MO. — Despite decades of initiatives to stem violent crime, Kansas City residents continue killing each other at a rate five times higher than the national average, prompting officials in this Midwest city best known for barbecue and jazz to turn to an alternative law enforcement approach that offers incentives to convicted and would-be criminals to change their ways. Zero-tolerance policies haven’t worked, police say, and there’s little evidence that public awareness rituals or anti-violence coalitions have had any effect on an annual murder count that has been below 100 only nine times in the last 44 years. But local leaders think their newest assault on violent crime — patterned after a “focused deterrence� model created in Boston in the mid-1990s and refined over the years by cities like Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Los Angeles — might finally change things. “It’s the first time I’ve felt this kind of energy when doing something like this,� said Darryl Forte, Kansas City’s first black police chief and a lifelong resident of the city. “I’m confident this will have an impact.�

No Violence Alliance Kansas City’s effort, dubbed the “No Violence Alliance,� or NoVA, was created more than a year ago, soon after Forte’s promotion to chief. The U.S. attorney’s office, county prosecutor and law enforcement authorities are on board, as are the University of Missouri-Kansas City and various social services agencies. Focused deterrence is a carrot-and-stick approach in which members of a criminal network — even those on the fringes who haven’t yet committed serious crimes — are identified and sought out by police who want them to know their actions can have unintended consequences for others in their cliques. Sometime soon, about 80 criminals on probation or parole will be brought together in groups of 20 to meet with prosecutors and law enforcement agents who will explain the ramifications of the new program. Those who want to pull away from criminal affiliations will be offered social services to help them

do so. Prosecutors will be sending a strong message to the others that authorities know who they are, what they’ve done, and that they will be held accountable if anyone in their network commits a violent crime. “For those on the bubble, a lot of them want to do what’s right,� Forte said. The focused deterrence approach has been successful in other cities, according to a study released early last year. Researchers with the Campbell Collaboration, an international research network, reported that nine of 10 Ceasefire-like programs they studied experienced “strong and statistically significant crime reductions associated with the approach.�

Making contact NoVA flexed its muscles in January when Kansas City police focused on a network of about 360 people, including homicide suspects, known drug dealers, prostitutes and juveniles, all linked to each other through a computer model created by assistant UMKC criminal justice professor Andrew Fox. Using information officers obtained from people on the streets, during traffic stops, at crime scenes or during what police call “knock and talks� in which an officer makes a cold call to a person’s home solely to make contact, Fox is connecting the dots between hard-core criminals, those who associate with them, and even those who associate with the associates. Using that data, NoVA manager Capt. Joe McHale said officers knocked on about 100 doors over a day and a half, with priority given to those with outstanding warrants. Many of the contacts were made simply to let suspected criminals know they’re being watched, he said. The effort resulted in the arrests of 17 people, including suspects in at least two homicides, and cleared 49 outstanding warrants. Last year, 108 people were victims of homicide in Kansas City, six fewer than the 114 murdered in 2011 when the city’s homicide rate of 23 per 100,000 residents was nearly five times higher than the national rate of 4.7 per 100,000. As of March 20, there were 21 homicides in the city this year, three less than at this time a year ago.

Budget balance is in eye of the beholder By David Espo Associated Press

WASHINGTON — When it comes to budgets, balance is in the eye of the congressional beholder. To House Republicans, it means a balanced budget in a decade, achieved by $4.6 trillion in spending cuts and without any tax increases. To Senate Democrats, it means a balanced plan, about $975 billion in higher taxes and a spending reduction of about $875 billion, not counting cancellation of $1.2 trillion in existing across-the-board-cuts. That makes the two plans polar opposites as President Barack Obama and the two political parties begin maneuvering toward yet another round of deficit-reduction negotiations. “Ultimately the key to this lock is in their (Republican) hands and they’ve got to decide if they want to turn it, and that means taking a balanced approach,� said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, a Maryland Democrat who is his party’s chief budget strategist in the House. Across the Capitol, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky offered a rebuttal. He said that under the plan Democrats favor, “We won’t get more jobs or a better economy or sensible reforms to prevent Medicare or Social Security from going bankrupt. And we certainly won’t get a balanced budget.� Even with the deep differences between the two parties, there’s plenty of time before the next make-or-break moment in divided-government’s pursuit of lower deficits. That won’t come until late July, when Obama probably will be forced to ask Congress for an increase in borrowing authority so the Treasury can finance the nation’s $16 trillion national debt. Republicans have said they will use the request as leverage to gain concessions on spending cuts in Medicare and other benefit programs.

HOUSE SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER OF OHIO leaves a news conference Thursday on Capitol Hill in Washington. The Republican-controlled House passed a budget plan Thursday that held sharp cuts in safety-net programs for the poor and a clampdown on domestic agencies. “Going back to the 1950s, debt ceiling requests of presidents have been used to bring about major changes, GrammRudman, the Congressional Review Act, the 1997 Clinton-Republican Congress deficit reduction package, the Budget Control Act,� McConnell said, summoning the ghosts of budget compromises past. “All of those came in the context of the budget — of the request of the president to raise the debt ceiling,� he said. Well before then, on April 8 in fact, Obama will present a budget of his own. It is long overdue, to the disappointment of Republicans who had hoped to make it an object of ridicule in the just-completed budget debates in the House and Senate. It gives Obama the chance to align himself entirely with his Democratic allies, or possibly to edge away when it comes to government benefit programs that have largely escaped cuts in earlier compromises. Republicans will watch to see what steps, if any, the White House is willing to recommend to slow the growth of Medicare or perhaps Social Security. Given Obama’s recent series of meetings with Republicans, some GOP lawmakers say privately it would be a positive sign for him to include a pro-

posal curtailing the rise in cost of living increases in benefit programs. It’s a change he has supported since his aborted deficit-reduction negotiations with House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, nearly two years ago. But many Democrats in Congress oppose it, and the administration has never included it in its budget. Republicans also are hoping Obama will back steps to slow the longterm growth in Medicare, even if they phase in gradually and produce relatively little deficit savings in the next decade. The president’s 2013 budget called for $305 billion in Medicare savings, but only a fraction of that would come directly from patients or seem likely to change the demand for care. Considerably more sensitive is a suggested increase in the age of eligibility for Medicare. During the recent round of meetings, Republicans asked Obama if he would support it, and he sidestepped, according to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were discussing private conversations. It’s another idea that the president supported once before, when he was negotiating with Boehner, and one that many congressional Democrats oppose strenuously.

U.S. SUPREME COURT

Gay marriage cases have several possible outcomes WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court can choose from a wide array of outcomes in ruling on California’s Proposition 8 ban on same-sex marriage and the federal Defense of Marriage Act. The federal law, known by the shorthand DOMA, defines marriage as the union of a man and a woman and therefore keeps legally married gay Americans from collecting a range of federal benefits that generally are available to married people. The cases will be argued Tuesday and Wednesday; rulings are not likely before late June. The justices might come out with rulings that are simple, clear and dramatic. Or they might opt for something narrow and legalistic. The court could strike down dozens of state laws that limit marriage to heterosexual couples, but it also could uphold gay marriage bans or say nothing meaningful about the issue at all. A look at potential outcomes for the Proposition 8 case and then for the case about DOMA:

This would leave gay Californians without the right to marry in the state and would tell the roughly 40 states that do not allow same-sex marriages that there is no constitutional problem in limiting marriage to a man and a woman. Such an outcome probably would trigger a political campaign in California to repeal Proposition 8 through a ballot measure and could give impetus to similar voter or legislative efforts in other states.

one of three possibilities. The broadest would apply across the country, in effect invalidating constitutional provisions or statutes against gay marriage everywhere. Or a majority of the justices could agree on a middle option that applies only to California as well as Colorado, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon, and Rhode Island. Those states already treat gay and straight couples the same in almost every respect through civil unions or domestic partnerships. The only difference is that gay couples are not allowed to marry. Gov. John Hickenlooper, D-Colo., signed his state’s civil unions law Thursday. This “nine-state solution� would say that the Constitution forbids states to withhold marriage from same-sex couples while giving them all the basic rights of married people. But this ruling would not implicate marriage bans in other states and would leave open the question of whether states could deprive gay couples of any rights at all. The narrowest of these potential outcomes would apply to California only. The justices essentially would adopt the rationale of the federal appeals court that found that California could not take away the right to marry that had been granted by the state Supreme Court in 2008 before Proposition 8 passed later that year. In addition, if the Supreme Court were to rule that gays and lesbians are deserving of special protection from discriminatory laws, it is unlikely that any state ban on same-sex marriage could survive long, even if the justices don’t issue an especially broad ruling in this case.

Q. What if the court strikes down Proposition 8? A. A ruling in favor of the two same-sex couples who sued to invalidate the voter-approved gay marriage ban could produce

Q. Are there other potential outcomes? A. Yes, the court has a technical way out of the case without deciding anything about same-sex marriage. The Proposition 8 challengers argue

that the private parties defending the provision — members of the group that helped put the ban on the ballot — did not have the right to appeal the trial judge’s initial decision striking it down or that of the federal appeals court. The justices sometimes attach great importance to this concept, known as standing. If they find Proposition 8’s proponents lack standing, the justices also would find the Supreme Court has no basis on which to decide the case. Q. Are the possibilities for the DOMA case as complicated? A. No, although there are some technical issues that could get in the way of a significant ruling. Q. What happens if the court upholds Section 3 of DOMA, defining marriage for purposes of federal law as the union of a man and a woman? A. Upholding DOMA would not affect state laws regarding marriage but would keep in place federal statutes and rules that prevent legally married gay Americans from receiving a range of benefits that are otherwise available to married people. These benefits include breaks on estate taxes, health insurance for spouses of federal workers and Social Security survivor benefits. Q. What if the court strikes down the DOMA provision? A. A ruling against DOMA would allow legally married gay couples, or in some cases, a surviving spouse in a same-sex marriage, to receive benefits and tax breaks resulting from more than 1,000 federal statutes in which marital status is relevant. For 83-year-old Edith Windsor, a New York widow whose case is before the court, such a ruling would give her a refund of $363,000 in estate taxes that were paid after the death of her spouse, Thea Spyer.

Bloomberg, mayors group tout gun control push NEW YORK (AP) — A new $12 million television ad campaign from Mayors Against Illegal Guns will push senators in key states to back gun control efforts, including comprehensive background checks. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced the ad buy Saturday — just days after Senate Democrats touted stronger background checks while acknowledging insufficient support to restore a ban on assaultstyle weapons to federal gun control legislation. “These ads bring the voices of Americans — who overwhelmingly support comprehensive and enforceable background checks — into the discussion to move senators to immediately take action to prevent gun violence,� Bloomberg said in a state-

ment issued by the group he co-founded in 2006. The two ads posted on the group’s website, called “Responsible� and “Family,� show a gun owner holding a rifle while sitting on the back of a pickup truck. In one ad, the man says he’ll defend the Second Amendment but adds “with rights come responsibilities.� The ad then urges viewers to tell Congress to support background checks. In the other ad, the man, a hunter, says “background checks have nothing to do with taking guns away from anyone.� The man then says closing loopholes will stop criminals and the mentally ill from obtaining weapons. The Senate is scheduled to debate federal gun control legislation next month. On Thursday,

NEW YORK CITY MAYOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG speaks at a gun violence summit Jan. 14 at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore. On Saturday, Bloomberg announced a new $12 million television ad campaign from Mayors Against Illegal Guns will push senators in key states to back gun control efforts including comprehensive background checks. the group plans for more than 100 events nationwide in support of passing gun control legislation that includes background checks. Mayors Against Illegal

Guns and other gun-control advocates frequently cite a mid-1990s study that suggests about 40 percent of U.S. gun transfers were conducted by private sellers not subject to federal

background checks. Based on 2011 FBI data, the group estimates 6.6 million firearms transfers are made without a background check for the receiver. A spokesman for Bloomberg could not immediately say if the $12 million was coming from Bloomberg or the mayor’s political action committee, Independence USA. The New York Times, which first reported the ad campaign Saturday night, said Bloomberg was bankrolling the ad buy. A spokesman for the National Rifle Association blasted Bloomberg and the new ads, saying NRA members and supporters would be calling senators directly and urging them to vote against proposed gun control legislation. “What Michael Bloomberg is trying to do is ... intimidate senators into not

listening to constituents and instead pledge their allegiance to him and his money,� said spokesman Andrew Arulanandam. Bloomberg has long supported efforts to curb gun violence, including sending New York City undercover investigators into other states to conduct straw purchases from dealers. Last month, Bloomberg’s PAC poured more than $2 million into ads supporting Illinois state Rep. Robin Kelly, who won a special primary and ran partly on a platform of supporting tougher gun restrictions. The new ads will air in 13 states the group believes are divided on gun control: Arkansas, Arizona, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, New Hampshire, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

BRIEFLY New bells ring at Notre Dame PARIS (AP) — Thousands gathered Saturday outside Notre Dame Cathedral to hear the inaugural ringing of nine gargantuan new bells at the Paris landmark. The bells, the largest of which weighs in at 6 1/2 tons, were ordered for the cathedral’s 850th birthday — to replace the discordant “ding dang� of the previous four 19th century chimes. Saturday was the first time the bells have been rung since they were delivered to the cathedral in late January. They join the cathedral’s oldest surviving bell, named Emmanuel, to restore the 10-bell harmony originally conceived for Notre Dame’s bell towers.

Pakistan ex-president to return to country

Former Russian tycoon found dead at home in England

Boris Berezovsky, a self-exiled and outspoken Russian tycoon who had a bitter falling out with Russian President Vladimir Putin, was found dead in southeast England on Saturday. He was 67.

FORMER RUSSIAN PRESIDENT BORIS YELTSIN presents Boris Berezovsky, one of Russia’s most prominent tycoons, as the new executive secretary of the Commonwealth of Independent States in this April 1998 file photo. United Kingdom police said that Berezovsky was found dead Saturday at his home west of London. role in brokering the rise of Yeltsin’s successor, Vladimir Putin, in 2000. But Berezovsky later fell out of favor with Putin, and eventually sought political asylum in the U.K. in the early 2000s to evade fraud charges he contended were politically motivated. Berezovsky was one of several so-called Russian “oligarchs� to butt heads with Putin. After coming into power, the Russian president effectively made a pact: the oligarchs could keep their money if they didn’t challenge him politically. Those who refused often found themselves in dire circumstances. Some were imprisoned — like the former Yukos Oil chief Mikhail Khodorkovsky — while others, like Berezovsky, fled Russia. The assets of these pariah businessmen, meanwhile, were acquired by state corporations or cooperative tycoons, often at bargain prices. Over the years, Berezovsky accused Putin of leading Russia toward dictatorship and returning it to a Soviet-style system

of state monopoly on the media. In the U.K., Berezovsky allied himself with an array of other Kremlin critics. Among them was ex-KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko, who fled Russia with Berezovsky’s help after accusing officials there of plotting to assassinate political opponents. Litvinenko died on Nov. 26, 2006, after drinking tea laced with a lethal dose of the rare radioactive isotope polonium-210 in a London hotel. The Kremlin claimed that Berezovsky — whom Russia repeatedly sought to extradite on a wide variety of criminal charges — engineered Litvinenko’s death as a way of embarrassing the Kremlin and buttressing his refugee status. Berezovsky, who considered Litvinenko a close friend, consistently denied the allegations. In 2010, he won a libel case against Kremlin-owned broadcaster All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting. Berezovsky, too, had been the target of several assassination attempts.

KARACHI, PAKISTAN (AP) — Former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf said he doesn’t fear arrest despite facing criminal charges as he vowed Saturday to return to his homeland and contest upcoming elections after more than four years in exile. But legal problems are only one challenge facing Musharraf as the Taliban warned they have an assassination team ready to kill the one-time military strongman if he sets foot in the country on Sunday as promised. Musharraf announced in early March that he would return to Pakistan to take part in upcoming elections, despite allegations he was part of a conspiracy to assassinate ex-premier Benazir Bhutto, militant threats to his safety and a waning popularity. The deposed general said he would lead his party in elections scheduled for May 11. “I am going back to save Pakistan,� he told reporters Saturday during a press conference in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. Musharraf has earned a reputation as a strongman who cried wolf after failing to follow through on previous promises to return home, but the likelihood of his return this

time got a boost on Friday when a Pakistan court granted him preMusharraf emptive bail — essentially preventing his immediate arrest — in three cases in which he’s implicated, including Bhutto’s death. Under the pre-emptive bail, he has 10 days to appear in court, which Musharraf promised he would do. “I will face these cases with bravery,� he said. Musharraf said “elements in Pakistan and outside� were spreading rumors that he was not returning, but that the granting of the bail would address some of those concerns. The former general plans to travel to Karachi from Dubai accompanied by journalists and supporters of his political party, All Pakistan Muslim League. Musharraf took power in a 1999 coup after thenPrime Minister Nawaz Sharif attempted to dismiss the general while he was out of the country. Officers loyal to Musharraf put Sharif under house arrest. Upon return Musharraf took control of the government, eventually naming himself president in 2001. He ran the country for nearly a decade until he was forced to step down in 2008 after growing discontent with his rule.

Syrian fighting moves toward Israeli border has increased sharply in the past few days. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said dozens of people, mostly opposition fighters, were killed in heavy clashes this week in the Quneitra region along the cease-fire line between Syria and Israel in the Golan Heights. The fighting in the area intensified midweek after rebels seized several villages, closing in on the strategic plateau that Israel captured from Syria in 1967 and later annexed. If the rebels take over the Quneitra region, it will bring radical Islamic militants to a front line with Israeli troops. The rebel force comprises dozens of groups, including the powerful al-Qaida-linked Jabhat al-Nusra, which the Obama administration labels a ter-

Bond reservations Questions about the process and details of Lawrence’s proposed $92.5 million school bond issue don’t inspire an enthusiastic endorsement.

C

hances are, every voter who marks a ballot in the April 2 $92.5 million school bond election has a memory of his or her elementary school — the building itself and the teachers and principal. Those memories, in addition to current familiarity with the condition of many older Lawrence school buildings, may frame each voter’s decision to favor or oppose the ballot question. No one would wish a decrepit facility on today’s students. Those who are urging passage of the bond question rightly point out that upgrades to space, to HVAC systems and to technology will enhance the education that youngsters get while attending classes in these buildings. Proponents also hammer home the point that there is no tax increase associated with the bond issue, and that it will provide jobs in Lawrence for a number of years. They also point to the career education component of the issue. Those are valid arguments. But they’re not overwhelmingly persuasive. On the career education piece, differences apparently remain over the district’s plans to locate the facility at Holcolm Park instead of the site preferred by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce at the former Farmland location on Kansas Highway 10. On the overall issue, questions remain about the board’s approach, which seemed to involve going from school to school essentially promising to meet the wishes of patrons, and then maxing out the bond issue at $92.5 million, the most that could be financed without a tax increase – at least in that fund. Is this the best and most honest way to meet the overall needs of the district and assure a quality education for the district’s students? Certainly the process has identified legitimate needs that should be addressed. It’s important that Lawrence has a topquality school system — for many reasons, foremost being the education offered to our students, but another is that it’s a key factor in business location decisions. Is there a better way to achieve a topquality school system than simply to pour more money into aging facilities? Is building a modern school for contemporary needs to serve East Lawrence now and into the future preferable? Is the bond issue, which appears to be throwing money at a variety of undefined problems, the best use of $92.5 million? Has the school board and district administration fully explored options that might produce a less predictable, traditional course? Supporting the bond issue is the comfortable position to take, but the questions surrounding the manner in which the proposal was developed do not lend themselves to an enthusiastic endorsement. If it passes, let’s hope that the expenditures prove to have been worth the money and that the ultimate beneficiaries are the students and the community. If it fails, let’s hope the next school board quickly can develop a substitute proposal undergirded by a clearly articulated statement concerning the plan for using the money — a statement that makes the bond issue more of a magnet for community support than “no tax increase” and “something for every school.” Either way, let’s hope that the school experience in Lawrence produces pleasant memories for our students for years to come.

‘Reform’ may make process worse WASHINGTON — Because of the grotesquely swollen place the presidency now occupies in the nation’s governance and consciousness, we are never not preoccupied with presidential campaigning. The Constitution’s Framers would be appalled. The nation reveres the Framers, but long ago abandoned the presidential selection process they considered so important that they made it one of the four national institutions created by the Constitution. Hence the significance of the Republican National Committee’s suggested reforms for the 2016 process. University of Virginia professor James Ceaser says the four national institutions the Framers created were Congress, the Supreme Court, the presidency and the presidential selection system based on the Electoral College. The fourth, wherein the selection of candidates and election of a president by each state’s electors occurred simultaneously — they were the same deliberation — soon disappeared. Since the emergence of the party system in the 1790s, and the ratification of the 12th Amendment in 1804, candidates have been selected by several different processes. First by their party’s congressional caucuses; then by nominating conventions controlled by the party’s organizations; then by conventions influenced by primaries and caucuses (Vice President Hubert Humphrey won the 1968 Democratic nomination without entering any primaries); and, since 1972, entirely by pri-

Now, responding to the fact that the 2012 nomination process was ruinously protracted, the RNC suggests reforms that might, like many improvements, make matters worse. This is because of a prior “improvement” — campaign finance reform. The RNC suggests a shorter nominating season with fewer debates — none earlier than Sept. 1, 2015. The 20 debates in 2012 were actually one fewer than in 2008. But in 2000 there were 13. In 1988, seven. In 1980, just six. The May 5, 2011, debate was eight months before the Iowa caucuses. In 1980, the first was 16 days before Iowa voted. The RNC report does not challenge the role of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada in beginning the delegate selection. Perhaps it is not worth the trouble to challenge these states’ anachronistic entitlement; like

all entitlements, it is fiercely defended by the beneficiaries. But a reform process that begins by accepting this crucial component of the status quo substantially limits possibilities. By the time these four states have had their say, the field of candidates often has been considerably — and excessively — winnowed, and the outcome is, if not settled, given a trajectory that is difficult to alter. Supporters of Sen. Rand Paul, or of any other candidate thoroughly unenthralled by the policies and procedures that have resulted in Republicans losing the popular vote in five of the last six presidential elections, are understandably suspicious of any proposed changes that might tilt the nomination process against the least known and less-lavishly funded candidates. They are especially apt to squint disapprovingly at the RNC’s suggestion of regional primaries. The party, however, must balance two imperatives. One is the need to enlarge the number of voters participating in the process. Hence the suggestion that primaries should replace all nominating caucuses and conventions — events where ideologically motivated activists and insurgent candidates can more easily predominate. The party’s second imperative is to preserve opportunities for less-known and financially challenged candidates to break through. This is where government restrictions on campaign contributions restrict the range of

candidates from which voters can choose. Existing restrictions on large contributions to candidates are commonly called “post-Watergate” reforms. This is more accurate as a matter of chronology than causality. Democrats began advocating contribution as well as spending limits years before Watergate concluded in 1974. They were appalled that large contributions from a few wealthy liberals made possible Eugene McCarthy’s 1968 antiwar insurgency against President Lyndon Johnson, and propelled George McGovern’s doomed nomination in 1972. Suppose political contributing were deregulated, which would deregulate political speech, the dissemination of which is the principal use of campaign contributions. This would make it easier to design a more compressed nominating process, with a reduced role for the first four states, which also would allow marginal candidates a financial opportunity to fight their way into the top tier of candidates. Anyway, tinkering with the party’s political process is no substitute for improving the party’s political substance. No nominating process featuring an array of candidates as weak and eccentric as the Republicans’ 2012 field would have produced a much better result. So the party must begin whatever 2016 process it devises by fielding better candidates, which should not be so difficult. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for March 24, 1913: YEARS “There are now AGO about 200 autoIN 1913 mobiles in Douglas County. The New State Law enacted at the 1913 session of legislature levies a tax of $5 per auto. This money is to be used in the improvement of the roads of the county from which it comes. This means that about $1,000 will be collected in Douglas county annually. $200 of this will be required to cover the expenses of collection. $800 will go into a fund for the purpose of improving the country roads in Douglas County.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Life graciously gives, takes, continues Really? Bobbie Smith, too? Geez. This is what I’m thinking when word comes that the lead singer of the Spinners has died. It comes a month after Richard Street and Damon Harris, who sang on “Papa Was a Rolling Stone” with the Temptations, passed away just days apart. Now Smith, whose ice cream dollop of a tenor on “Could It Be I’m Falling in Love” serenaded me through junior year in high school, has joined them. It feels — and this feeling has become uncomfortably familiar lately — as if Somebody Up There is taking a sledgehammer to my childhood. I send Howard a text: “All my heroes are going away.” Howard has been one of my best friends since we were hired within weeks of each other by The Miami Herald way back in the year of our Lord 1991 and I am sitting next to him a few days later in the newsroom as he chats with these interns. Half the desks in the place are empty these days, stark evidence of the economic woes the news business faces, and many of the occupied desks are held by interns, none of whom appears to be older than 12. One of them asks Howard a philosophical question: “Do you feel like your life

She spoke in the past tense: “went by.” As in done, finito, kaput. As in, this 12-year-old sees no difference, my friend, between you and a cadaver. Her question strikes me in a tender spot, coming as it does, just after Bobbie, Richard and Damon have gone, after Bonnie Franklin has died,

after Valerie Harper has announced she is dying of cancer and on the very day, as it happens, that we are having a party to commemorate the end of an era. For 50 years, The Miami Herald has been headquartered in a so-uglyit’s-beautiful building on Biscayne Bay. But, the business being in the shape it is, they’ve sold the place to some company that’s going to smash it down and wants to put up a casino. So a thousand of us, employees present and past, have come home this day to bid the place farewell. The old joint is filled with shouts of laughter and those fierce hugs you give people you haven’t seen for way too long. There are patches more of baldness, strands more of gray, inches more of fat, time doing its merciless work. There are updates on marriages and divorces, grandchildren, illnesses, career changes, lost friends. There are memories. And a 12-year-old’s question hangs over me like smoke. Do you feel like your life went by quickly? It’s funny. You go to sleep a kid with Spinners songs all over the radio, wake up married with children and Spinners songs suddenly “classics” on the oldies station. You go to sleep yet again and wake up a grandfather. Bob-

bie Smith is dead and a roomful of old friends are wondering where life went. And life doesn’t just go. It also takes. Your knees, your hair, your waistline, your looks. Your loved ones, your friends, the career you used to have, the building where you used to work. But — and you don’t quite understand this when you’re 12 — for as much as life takes, it also gives: the solace of memories, the tough teachings of experience, the hardwon recognition of the difference between marathon and sprint. And grace. “We are all terminal,” said Valerie Harper after her diagnosis. Her point was not despair. It was, rather, to cherish the sweetness of then, but honor the urgency of now, balance the goodbyes with hellos, miss no chance to be in the embrace of old friends. I don’t know if the 12-year-old stuck around to see all those fat, gray, bald people, but if so, I hope she heard the laughter echoing off the walls of that doomed building. “Life went by quickly?” No. We live. And that’s a verb in the present tense. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald. He chats with readers from noon to 1 p.m. CDT each Wednesday on www.MiamiHerald.com.

Kansas-Carolina more than coaches By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

NORTH CAROLINA COACH ROY WILLIAMS TALKS WITH MEDIA MEMBERS about the Jayhawks’ defense Saturday in Kansas City, Mo. The Tar Heels and Kansas will meet in the NCAA’s Round of 32 today.

KANSAS CITY, MO. — Bill Self doesn’t see today’s Kansas-North Carolina basketball game as a battle between the current and former head coaches of the Jayhawks. “I don’t know if there’s any importance at all about the coaches, at least from my perspective. I think if coach (Roy) Williams and I were to go out there and play 1-on-1, I think I could back him down on the post pretty good,” said KU coach Self, a 50-year-old former starting point guard

at Oklahoma State. Williams, 62, was a point guard on the JV team at North Caro- UP NEXT lina.

Tournament game between Self’s No. 1-seeded Jayhawks (30-5) and Williams’ No. 8-seeded Tar Heels (2510) — tipoff is 4:15 p.m. at Sprint Center — has the focus square on the coaches’ shoulders. Williams, who went 418101 in 15 years at KU, picked up his 700th coaching victory (against 179 losses in 25 years) Friday, courtesy of the Tar Heels’ 78-71 secondround NCAA win over Villanova.

Happy return KANSAS WOMEN 67, COLORADO 52

KANSAS CITY, MO. — America’s fascination with the shot-blocking sensation whose foundation was built by playing volleyball has overshadowed another aspect of Kansas University senior center Jeff Withey’s ever-improving game. Withey not only can keep others from scoring, he can be tough to keep from scoring, too. The 7-footer from San Diego has developed into a reliable scorer who has expanded his repertoire. He always has featured dunks and short hook shots. In KU’s first NCAA Tournament game, Friday against Western Kentucky, Withey was his team’s best outside shooter by virtue of hitting a jumper from the free-throw line. “We also made one shot for the game outside of two feet,” retorted Kansas coach Bill Self to the suggestion his team could have become the first No. 1 seed to lose to a 16 seed if Western Kentucky had made more shots. “One outside shot. That was our seven-foot center. We didn’t exactly light it up, either.” Withey did, making seven of nine from the field on the way to a game-high 17 points in the 64-57 victory. Western Kentucky didn’t have the size to keep him from scoring down low. “I think he’s become better with his back to the basket,” Self said. “I am happy with him as an offensive player. His numbers don’t jump off the page, but he’s getting about 14 a game, shooting a good percentage. He’s always been a good free-throw shooter. I think we’re playing through him more, where in the past, last year we played through Thomas (Robinson). He benefited from Thomas getting doubled. Now basically others are benefiting from Jeff getting doubled.” Withey stated expanding his shooting range as an offseason goal, and in recent Brennan Linsley/AP Photo weeks he has shown he met KANSAS WOMEN’S BASKETBALL COACH BONNIE HENRICKSON, CENTER, REACTS as Colorado forward Jamee that goal.

Davis sparks KU win

By Sarah Kuta Special to the Journal-World

BOULDER, COLO. — Kansas University senior forward Carolyn Davis checked a few more accomplishments off her “to-do before graduation” list after Saturday’s 67-52 victory over Colorado: an NCAA Tournament win and joining the Jayhawks’ 1,800-career-points club. KU, a No. 12 seed, survived the first round of the NCAA Tournament, upsetting 19thranked and fifth-seeded Colorado, 67-52, at the Coors Events Center. Kansas (1913) moves on to play No. 17 South Carolina in the tournament’s second round at 8:30 p.m. Monday. Davis, who sat out for KU’s 2012 NCAA Tournament run after dislocating her knee and tearing an anterior crucial ligament midway through the season, tied Angel Goodrich with a teamhigh 14 points and grabbed eight boards. “To get this first win, there’s a lot of joy,” she said. “To be able to be out there and play and contribute to my team, it just feels great.” The first-round game felt a familiar to the Jayhawks.

Busch keeps Gibbs’ Fontana streak alive FONTANA, CALIF. (AP) — Another Nationwide Series race at Fontana, another victory for Kyle Busch and Joe Gibbs Racing. Busch certainly isn’t tired of the same old story. Busch earned JGR’s ninth consecutive Nationwide victory at Fontana on Saturday, comfortably beating Sam Hornish Jr. for his third win in five races this season. Gibbs’ Toyotas haven’t lost a Nationwide race on their unofficial home track since 2007,

with Busch, Joey Logano and Tony Stewart navigating the wide, bumpy track with unmatched ease. Through changes in cars, drivers and crew chiefs, JGR has maintained its record streak. Busch pushed ahead late in a back-and-forth duel with Nationwide points leader Hornish’s Ford to win his second straight Nationwide race, wrapping it up when Hornish brushed the wall with two laps to go. “It’s really cool,� Busch said.

“They’re known for having great stuff, but you’ve still got to be able to wheel it. I don’t think we were the best car, but we just chased down that 12 car. Didn’t want to see him win in front of our hometown crowd.� Busch raced to his record Nationwide 54th victory, including six at Fontana, in front of fans from Toyota and other sponsors’ home offices, capping a doubly celebratory day for the winningest driver in Nationwide history. What’s more, Parker Kliger-

man drove his Kyle Busch Motorsports Toyota to a careerbest fourth-place finish. Regan Smith was third, and Austin Dillon came in fifth ahead of Kyle Larson. Busch started from the pole with crew chief Adam Stevens, who was Logano’s crew chief during his Nationwide victory at Fontana last year for JGR. Busch led 67 laps and cruised to the finish, keeping Hornish comfortably behind him with his veteran knowledge of Fontana’s quirks.

TIGER WOODS PUMPS HIS FIST AFTER MAKING an eagle putt on the 16th green during the third round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational on Saturday in Orlando, Fla.

Woods fires 66, surges into lead at Bay Hill ORLANDO, FLA. — Tiger Woods is one round away from returning to No. 1 in the world. With key par saves early in his round and an eagle for the third straight day at Bay Hill, Woods seized control Saturday with a 6-under 66 to race by Justin Rose and build a two-shot lead going into the final round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Woods was at 11-under 205, two shots ahead of Rickie Fowler (67), John Huh (71) and Rose, who at one point was six shots ahead of Woods. Rose had a 39 on the back nine and wound up with a 72. Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a second straight 73 and was even-par 216, 11 strokes off the lead. Woods hasn’t been No. 1 in the world ranking since the last week of October 2010. That can change Sunday with a victory on a Bay Hill course where he already has won seven times, and from a position where he hardly ever loses. Woods is 41-2 on the PGA Tour when he has the outright lead going into the final round. “Just because I’ve won here doesn’t ensure that I’m going to win the tournament,� Woods said. “The conditions are different. The game might be different. But the objective is still to put myself in position to win the golf tournament and somehow get it done on Sunday. Over the course of my career, I’ve done a pretty decent job of that.� Rose had a three-shot lead on the back nine until he crumbled, making three bogeys over the last six holes. Thorbjorn Olesen of Denmark had a 66 and was in the group at 8-under 208, along with Jimmy Walker (70), Bill Haas (73), Ken Duke (70) and Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano of Spain, who played with Woods and had a 68.

Paula Creamer and I.K. Kim were three shots back. Creamer had a 71, and Kim shot 70. Stacy Lewis, playing her first event since taking the No. 1 spot in the world from Yani Tseng with a victory last week in Phoenix, was four strokes back after a 69. Trying to win her third straight tournament, Lewis had an eagle on the par-5 eighth.

Four tied for Champions lead SAUCIER, MISS. — Corey Pavin birdied his first six holes and finished with a 5-under 67 to join Bernhard Langer, Roger Chapman and Joe Daley atop the leaderboard after the second round of the Champions Tour’s Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic. Pavin took advantage of Fallen Oak’s soft greens in ideal windless conditions. Langer had a 65, Chapman shot 67, and Daley had a 66.

CARLSBAD, CALIF. — Beatriz Recari drove the green on the 285-yard 16th hole to set up a four-foot eagle putt and finished with a 3-under 69 for a two-stroke lead in the Kia Classic. Recari, the 25-year-old Spaniard who won her lone LPGA Tour title in 2010, had an 11-under 205 total at Aviara Golf Club. Hall of Famer Karrie Webb was second after a 70. Winless since the 2011 Founders Cup in Phoenix, Webb dropped strokes with bogeys on Nos. 13 and 17.

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. — Will Power won the pole for the IndyCar season opener at St. Petersburg. The Penske Racing driver earned the top starting spot for today’s race on his final lap of the qualifying session. It’s the 30th pole of Power’s career, moving him past Dario Franchitti for seventh on IndyCar’s all-time list. Takuma Sato qualified second Saturday and was followed by Simona de Silvestro in the highest qualifying effort of her career. The Swiss driver is making her debut for new team KV Racing Technology and had never before advanced to the Fast Six round of qualifying.

AUSTIN, TEXAS — For Steve Lavin it essentially ended the day Dan Guerrero was hired as athletic director. For Jim Harrick it ended with a dinner at Monty’s, involving the Collins twins. For Walt Hazzard it ended when Chancellor Charles Young angrily witnessed a spiritless Pac-10 Tournament loss to Washington State. Friday night Ben Howland buttoned his sport coat with a minute left in an eyesore loss to Minnesota, standing in front of his bench as usual, removing senior Larry Drew II from the game and hugging him, coaching to the end. Shortly we will learn if he will frequent that UCLA bench again. We already are pretty sure Shabazz Muhammad’s drop-in season is over; it adjourned when the Las Vegas freshman watched a layup roll off the rim, a tick before the buzzer sounded in UCLA’s 83-63 loss to Minnesota, its most decisive of the season. It has the feel of a flawed construction project that needs to be scrubbed, or a well-dug hole that needs no more shoveling. It was supposed to be better, before all the transfers and injuries and assembled weight on the rooftop. The Bruins have won one NCAA Tournament game since 2008. At this school, 38 years after John Wooden’s farewell, the only shining moment remains a championship. Excuses were available. Jordan Adams is UCLA’s best all-around player and he broke his foot last weekend. With the skeleton crew, UCLA did not need a strictly officiated game, but it got one, with 38 total fouls, and Travis Wear drawing three in the first half. “We missed Jordan’s scoring,� Muhammad said. “We made a lot of turnovers, and their bigs got downcourt and hurt us on transition, and we couldn’t really do much about it. I tried to pick up the scoring but it wasn’t enough.� It certainly wasn’t. Muhammad got his first field goal with 18:39 left. In the game. He salvaged his stat line at the end, with 20 points and 10 trips to the foul line, but he missed 12 of 18 shots and all six from deep range. Muhammad also had one assist, giving him 27 for the year. That would rank third in the National Hockey League, behind Sidney Crosby and Martin St. Louis. Muhammad’s eligibility was delayed, and a sprained ankle also restrained him early. He was valuable, but no objective judge could say that Muhammad ranks high on the list of Howland’s best players over the years at UCLA. Maybe the NBA will allow him to catch up to the hype. “I’m going to talk with my parents about it,� he said, referring to his pro decision. “I don’t know when I’ll decide.� He was also serenaded with “Happy Birthday� by the Minnesota band, possibly because a newspaper story on Friday revealed that Shabazz is actually 20 years old, not the listed 19.

West Regional No. 9 Wichita State 76, No. 1 Gonzaga 70 SALT LAKE CITY — Gonzaga’s gone. Cleanthony Early and Ron Baker scored 16 points apiece and Wichita State hit five straight 3-pointers late to knock the Bulldogs out of the NCAA tournament on Saturday. The Shockers (28-8) advanced to the Round of 16 for the first time since 2006, while Gonzaga became the first top seed to be eliminated, giving all the Zags doubters an Itold-you-so moment. The Zags survived a scare in the second round against Southern but couldn’t hold up against a fellow mid-major from Kansas whose motto is “play angry.” The Shockers face the winner of today’s game between La Salle and Ole Miss. Wichita State had the Zags down 13 early. Though Gonzaga (32-3) fought back, the barrage of 3s was too much for the small school from Spokane, Wash. Kelly Olynyk scored 26 points to lead Gonzaga, and Kevin Pangos had 19. While Gonzaga held the top spot in the AP Top 25 over the final weeks of the season, skeptics thought of the Bulldogs as a soft No. 1 seed that benefited from a relatively easy schedule in the West Coast Conference while other top contenders were getting banged around in the power conferences. One thing is certain: Wichita State was not intimidated. “They never quit,” Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said. “You know we got the big lead, Gonzaga makes a great run as a No. 1 team in the country would, and these guys dig down.” Shockers, for sure. They showed their grit after Gonzaga’s 12-0 run gave the Bulldogs a 49-41 lead with 11:53 left. Backto-back 3-pointers by Kevin Pangos and Michael Hart started it, Olynyk hit a jumper then a pair of free throws, and Pangos capped it with a steal and fast-break layup. But Wichita State outscored the Zags 35-21 from there. Tekele Cotton, Early and Baker hit three straight 3s to get the Shockers within 61-60. Baker’s free throws gave Wichita State the lead for good at 64-63 with 3:10 left. He then hit a 3 and freshman Fred VanVleet helped seal it with a final 3 with 1:28 remaining. The Shockers, who made just 2 of 20 3-pointers in their 18-point win over Pitt on Thursday, shot 50 percent from beyond the arc and 50 percent overall. “They deserve a ton of credit,” Gonzaga coach Mark Few said. “It’s the first time in a while someone made 50 percent on us, and to bang in 14 3s (overall) is pretty amazing.” It was another sudden end to an amazing ride for Gonzaga. The Bulldogs were playing in their 15th straight NCAA tournament but have not advanced past the Round of 16 since 1999. “I think we just ... let our guard down a little bit,” said Gonzaga’s Mike Hart. “That was key. We defended so well at the start of the second half, then we just lost some guys. You can’t do that when guys get it going. You gotta get a hand up and stay close to your assignments. We kinda lost it there a few possessions and that really hurt us.” While the Zags left disappointed, the Shockers stayed fairly low key in victory. At one point, Early and teammate Chadrack Lu-

GONZAGA COACH MARK FEW GLANCES UP AT THE SCOREBOARD late in the second half on Saturday in Salt Lake City. file jumped up and body slammed each other and the Shockers huddled at midcourt for a long team hug. But largely, Wichita State acted like a team that’s been there before. “We play together, we stick to our goals, we’re good teammates,” Baker said. He hardly looked fazed. The game was physical as expected, with Olynyk getting a forearm across his neck in the first half but continuing to go hard at the basket. Gonzaga’s 39-30 rebounding edge couldn’t make up for 36 percent shooting. Six different Wichita State players hit 3s in the opening 20 minutes as the Shockers made 7 of 15 from beyond the arc in the first half. They finished 14 of 28 overall. “Man it means a lot,” the Shockers’ Carl Hall said. “It means a lot to this program and our fans deserve this.” WICHITA ST.

No. 6 Arizona 74, No. 12 Harvard 51 SALT LAKE CITY — Arizona put an emphatic end to Harvard’s March Madness success story. Mark Lyons matched his career high with 27 points to lead the Wildcats (27-7). Arizona sprinted to a 30-9 lead, as the Crimson (20-10) missed 20 of its first 22 shots. Lyons led Arizona to the program’s 15th appearance in the Sweet 16. The Wildcats will play Iowa State or Ohio State next week in Los Angeles. Harvard, meanwhile, goes home with its first NCAA win in tow. The 14th-seeded Crimson beat third-seeded New Mexico on Thursday but couldn’t recreate the magic.

South Regional No. 4 Michigan 78, No. 5 VCU 53 AUBURN HILLS, MICH. — Michigan made Havoc look helpless. Mitch McGary had 21 points and 14 rebounds, and the Wolverines breezed through Virginia Commonwealth’s vaunted pressure with a clinical performance, beating the Rams to advance to the NCAA round of 16 for the first time since 1994. VCU (27-9) was relentless in a 46-point rout of Akron on Thursday night, but the Rams met their match against Michigan’s cool-headed backcourt. Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. rarely looked rattled against VCU, and although Michigan (28-7) committed 12 turnovers, the Rams couldn’t turn many of them into quick scoring opportunities. McGary, a 6-foot-10 freshman, set season highs in scoring and rebounding. VCU had no answer for him around the basket, and when the Rams couldn’t create easy baskets with their pressure defense — they call it “Havoc” — they were finished. The 71-point swing by VCU — from a 46-point win to a 25-point loss — was the largest in NCAA tournament history, according to STATS. In 1968, Houston beat Texas Christian 103-68, then lost to UCLA 101-69 for a 67-point swing. McGary made his first seven shots from the field. Burke scored 18 points, and Hardaway and Glenn

Robinson III added 14 each. Juvonte Reddic scored 16 points for VCU. Michigan led 38-23 at halftime. Burke turned the ball over five times in the first 5:51 of the second half, but even then the Rams couldn’t rally. A dunk and a layup by McGary had VCU calling timeout with the score 4933 — and then Michigan found a bit of a groove from beyond the arc. Spike Albrecht made a 3-pointer and found Robinson with a slick pass for a dunk in transition. A 3-pointer by Burke made it 57-35. Hardaway made a 3-pointer to push the lead to 23 and added an acrobatic reverse dunk to make it 64-38. The Rams entered the day forcing an average of 19.9 turnovers per game, the most in the nation. Michigan was only committing 9.2 per game, the fewest in the nation. In a matchup of strength against strength, the Wolverines won easily. They started by letting Hardaway bring the ball up while VCU denied Burke. Occasionally, Burke would have enough space to dribble up the court himself, and Michigan also picked the press apart on occasion with smart passing. The Rams didn’t help themselves by shooting 30 percent from the field in the first half. It’s harder for VCU to set up its press when the Rams aren’t scoring. Michigan was only 3 of 12 from 3-point range before halftime, but the Wolverines still opened a sizeable margin. A 3-pointer by Hardaway put Michigan ahead 3019, and Burke made it a 15-point game when he hit from the perimeter after McGary flattened Briante Weber with a pick. Burke drove toward the basket and lobbed to Robinson for an alley-oop dunk that made it 38-21. The Wolverines will play the winner of today’s game between Kansas and North Carolina in Arlington, Texas.

No. 1 Louisville 82, No. 8 Colorado St. 56 LEXINGTON, KY. — Russ Smith had another big night, leading four players in double figures with 27 points, and Louisville rolled into the Midwest Region semifinals. The Cardinals put on a defensive clinic as they dismantled Colorado State. Louisville forced the Rams into a seasonhigh 20 turnovers, made Colton Iverson look as invisible as a 6-foot-10 guy can be and limited one of the nation’s best rebounding teams to 24 boards, more than a dozen below their average. Two nights after scoring 26 against Missouri, Dorian Green was held to six points. It was the 12th straight win for Louisville (31-5), which will play Oregon on Friday in Indianapolis. COLORADO ST.

No. 12 Oregon 74, No. 4 Saint Louis 57 SAN JOSE, CALIF. — Damyean Dotson scored 23 points, Carlos Emory added 14 points and hotshooting Oregon sprinted past Saint Louis. Dotson made his first five 3-pointers to carry the Ducks (28-8) into the second weekend for the first time since 2007, when they lost to eventual repeat champion Florida in the regional final. Oregon made 8 of 11 shots from beyond the arc, while the Billikens finished 3 for 21 from long range. Kwamain Mitchell scored 18 points and Dwayne had 16 points and nine rebounds for the Billikens (28-7), who set a school record for wins this season following the death of coach Rick Majerus in December.

No. 2 Michigan St. 70, No. 6 Memphis 48 AUBURN HILLS, MICH. — Gary Harris scored 16 of his career-high 23 points in the first half to help Michigan State reach the round of 16 for the fifth time in six years. Michigan State (27-8) will play the winner of the Duke-Creighton game on Friday in the Midwest Regional semifinals at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. The Tigers (31-5) advanced in the NCAA tournament for the first time in Josh Pastner’s four seasons. The Conference USA champions were eliminated in the third

round because they struggled to stop Harris on the outside or his teammates inside all afternoon. The Spartans’ top post players — Adreian Payne and Derrick Nix — combined for 27 points and 18 rebounds.

East Regional No. 3 Marquette 74, No. 6 Butler 72 LEXINGTON, KY. — Vander Blue scored 19 second-half points to rally Marquette out of another hole, and the Golden Eagles survived Butler to reach the Round of 16. Like November’s first meeting between the teams at the Maui Invitational, won 72-71 by Butler on Rotnei Clarke’s buzzerbeating 3-pointer, this was a back-and-forth, highintensity affair, that came down to the final shot. Only this time, Butler missed. Marquette (25-8) will meet the winner of today’s game between Illinois and Miami (Fla.) on Thursday in Washington, D.C. Clarke’s 24 points led Butler (28-9). Blue, the junior whose last-second layup edged Davidson on Thursday, led the Golden Eagles’ rally from a 35-27 halftime deficit and tied the game at 69 on a 3-pointer with 1:25 remaining.

No. 4 Syracuse 66, No. 12 California 60 SAN JOSE, CALIF. — C.J. Fair scored 18 points, James Southerland added 14 and Syracuse survived a second-half drought of more than 12 minutes without a field goal to beat California. The Orange (28-9) frustrated California with their zone defense to overcome a dismal shooting night when they made just 39 percent of their shots and missed 15 of 41 free throws. But it proved to be enough to send Syracuse to Washington, D.C., for the East Regional where the Orange will take on the winner of Sunday’s game between top-seeded Indiana and Temple on Thursday.

KANSAS-NORTH CAROLINA

KANSAS GUARD BEN MCLEMORE AND ANDREA HUDY, assistant athletic director for sport performance, watch the Colorado State-Louisville game as McLemore stretches in the locker room before the team’s practice Saturday in Kansas City, Mo.

Kansas CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

game earlier this year — he’s 506-163 in 20 seasons — today goes for his 300th victory in 10 seasons at KU. He’s 299-58. “There are good players on both teams,” Self said. The Tar Heels, in fact, start five McDonald’s All-Americans (guards Reggie Bullock, P.J. Hairston, Marcus Paige, Dexter Strickland and center James Michael McAdoo), while KU brings AllAmerican Perry Ellis off the bench. “They (teams) are tradition-rich, intertwined with coach (Dean) Smith playing on the (KU) 1952 national championship team and him being maybe as innovative and great a leader of a program we’ve ever seen at North Carolina and coach (Larry) Brown being a great player there and winning a national championship here. Coach Williams obviously had 15 great years here, now being the head coach there,” Self added. “There are some bitter rivalries out there, but I don’t see anything bitter about this at all. What’s unbelievable (is) in the tradition-rich years of both our programs, we’ve only played 10 times, and almost all have been in the NCAA Tournament. They (meetings) are few and far between, so I’m sure the fan base of both programs will enjoy the game.” UNC is 6-4 against KU all-time. Five of the meetings have come in NCAAs.

KANSAS PLAYERS ELIJAH JOHNSON, RIGHT, AND KEVIN YOUNG make their way to the team locker room before practice. Most fans remember the two games involving UNC coach Williams against his former school. KU won, 80-67, in last year’s Elite Eight in St. Louis and also prevailed, 84-66, in the 2008 Final Four semis in San Antonio. Self went 1-1 versus Williams’ Jayhawks when Self coached at Illinois. “I thought McAdoo was the best big guy in the game (last year). He’s a load,” Self said of 6-9 sophomore McAdoo (14.5 ppg, 7.3 rpg), who is the only big man in UNC’s four-guard lineup. “They are playing small with Hairston (6-5, 220 soph., 14.5 ppg) at the 4. He’s still a good-sized guy. They will try to take advantage of taking our bigs away from the basket. We have to take advantage of scoring the ball inside.” The two teams played to a 47-47 halftime tie a year ago. “I remember the second half coming out and creating some separation,” KU senior point guard Elijah Johnson said. “It was back-and-forth the whole

time. We finally got the separation we wanted.” McAdoo had 15 points and four boards in that game. Of KU’s returning players, Jeff Withey had the best game with 15 points, eight rebounds and three blocks. “They have four guards, can stretch the floor. We can do that math, and we know how to go about it,” Johnson said. “We can also stretch the floor. I don’t think it (four-guard lineup) is something we haven’t seen. We also played Iowa State three times this year (and won three against the smaller, three-point-shooting Cyclones).” The Jayhawks, who edged No. 16-seed Western Kentucky, 64-57, in Friday’s second round, say they totally respect UNC, despite the 8 seed. A year ago, KU was seeded second and UNC first when KU prevailed. “That number doesn’t matter. It’s two teams, 10 players, and they’ve got to play,” Johnson said. The Jayhawks are extraenthused playing a tradition-rich program such as

Carolina. KU enters second in all-time victories with 2,100. UNC is third at 2,090, with Kentucky leading the pack at 2,111. “North Carolina and Kansas ... just seeing these two great programs and now being able to play at Kansas and play against another great program is what I’m looking forward to,” KU freshman Ben McLemore said. “I’m really excited about this game.” It was suggested he might have had a case of the jitters Friday when his NCAA debut resulted in 11 points, four turnovers and two assists. “Not at all. I definitely wasn’t nervous,” McLemore said. “My shots weren’t falling (2-of5), but I got to the line (7of-8) and got an alley-oop. I was trying to get in the game and help my team any way I could. I don’t want to rush anything, force anything, just play my game and have fun like I’ve been doing.” As far as today’s game, to be shown on CBS, Johnson said: “Yes, it’s a big game. It’s what you come to Kansas for. You don’t sit back and want it to happen. You’ve got to make it happen. “When coach offers you a scholarship, you know you come here to play against teams like this, the Dukes, the Carolinas, the Kentuckys. That there is enough. You’ve got to be ready to play. You get a chance to advance.” Today’s winner will advance to next Friday’s Sweet 16 and a game against Michigan at a yetto-be -determined time in Dallas.

Gary Bedore’s KU basketball notebook Jayhawks call team meeting Less than impressed with a seven-point victory over No. 16-seed Western Kentucky, Kansas University’s seniors conducted a players-only team meeting in the locker room Friday night. “We talked about not letting nerves get the best of us and talked about how this is our last go-round,” senior center Jeff Withey said. “Ben (McLemore, freshman) is probably going to go to the NBA, and we’re all seniors (other four starters). If some things went wrong, we could have been done. Our season would have been done, and we’d never played again at Kansas. We’ve got to be more intense and focused and not let nerves get the best of us.” Senior Elijah Johnson said the Jayhawks’ frame of mind will be fine for today’s 4:15 p.m., third-round game

against North Carolina in Sprint Center. “Be aggressive, have fun, not be uptight,” Johnson said. “Getting off to a good start. That starts in the morning when we wake up, having fun. You’ve just got to relax. It can be tough if you make it tough. Last night we made it tough.” KU coach Bill Self acknowledged his squad “tried hard. We were just tight. That game is behind us. I don’t think that game will have anything to do with how we play (against North Carolina) at all.”

personal milestone as much as a team thing and what it took to get there and all the players who have come through and all the players he’s had the privilege to coach. “I think he’s just trying to win another game in the NCAA Tournament, and not looking at it trying to get his 300th win.”

Press Western Kentucky forced 17 turnovers against KU on Friday, making some wonder if UNC will press the Jayhawks. “Well, I think we had op299 and counting portunities to dunk a couple Self’s next coaching vicballs if we could just play tory will be his 300th at KU. catch as opposed to being Earlier this year, he won his at second base and throw500th game.

So we didn’t do a great “I highly doubt he is job against the pressure. aware of that,” said KU “Carolina will try to freshman guard Tyler Self, pressure us. I don’t know the coach’s son. “I don’t if Carolina will try to press think he looks at it as a us, but I think they’ll try

to pressure us. We got to get better getting open one pass away. We have to get better at passing and handling. Once you are better at that, you have to be better at attacking pressure and scoring behind the pressure. That’s something we didn’t do a good job of at all yesterday.” KU prepared for WKU’s press. “We practiced against seven or eight guys (at a time) last week and didn’t do a good job,” he said. “I think it’s something we can attack better and will attack better.”

Like the Cyclones? North Carolina has been compared to Iowa State in terms of running four guards around a big man. “Well, they don’t run the same stuff,” Self said. “I think personnel there are some similarities, except Carolina’s got a guy you can throw it to at 10 feet or

throw it to him at three feet (James Michael McAdoo), and you can come away with two points or a foul, where Iowa State liked to spread it all over, all five spots. “Certainly we haven’t played against a so-called 4-man that can stretch it and shoot it with the range that (P.J.) Hairston does, not at all. Iowa State did have some 4-men that could make threes, but this is ridiculous how he makes threes and how many he can make, what a streak he can get on. That’s a little bit different. But I do think the fact that we have played somebody that can stretch it from at least four spots at all times hopefully will be a benefit playing in the game tomorrow.”

Talent North Carolina has five McDonald’s All-Americans in its starting lineup. “I mean, that’s great,”

said KU’s Travis Releford, “but I don’t know. We’ve got one (Perry Ellis). I don’t know if that means anything. After McDonald’s, you’ve still got to prove yourself in college all over again.”

More from Friday In defeating Western Kentucky, KU won the school’s 2,100th game and became the first school in NCAA history to have won at least 30 games for the fourth straight season. Memphis won 30 for four straight seasons from 2006-09 but later vacated the 2008 season. Series talk UNC leads the all-time series against KU, 6-4. KU has won the last two meetings in the NCAA Tournament — 80-67 in last year’s Elite Eight in St. Louis and 84-66 in the 2008 Final Four semifinals in San Antonio.

KANSAS GUARD NAADIR THARPE IS SEEN TAKING A QUESTION ON THE MONITOR from a feed in the interview room as forward Jamari Traylor hangs out in the team locker room before practice Saturday at Sprint Center.

Paige gives Heels stability ————

Freshman takes over point-guard duties for UNC By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

KANSAS CITY, MO. — In last year’s Elite Eight meeting with North Carolina in St. Louis, the Kansas University men’s basketball team benefited from the Tar Heels playing without starting point guard Kendall Marshall. Many Tar Heels believed then that the outcome would have been different had the 6-foot4, 195-pound sophomore Marshall played, but those who remain from that team are not dwelling on the past. “Everyone talks about payback,” UNC forward James Michael McAdoo said, “but they won the game fair and square. We’re just excited to go back and compete against such a great team. A lot of teams are home today and their seasons are over.” Although Marshall and three other members of last year’s starting lineup have moved on — all four were taken in the first 17 picks of last June’s NBA Draft — Carolina (25-10) enters today’s 4:15 p.m. third-round rematch with Kansas a more complete team. Unlike last year, when UNC coach Roy

true freshman point guard Marcus Paige running the show. “Just knowing that we have our primary ballhandler out there on the floor, the person who can get us into our offense, the person who’s very unselfish with the ball, is very big,” said 6-7 junior Reggie Bullock. “Last year was a struggle for us because we didn’t have Kendall to match up with KU. But this year we have our starting point guard, and hopefully that’ll lead to a better outcome.” Paige has started 33 of the 34 games he has played in this season and said he started feeling comfortable during the second half of the ACC season. He enters today’s showdown averaging 8.1 points and 2.7 assists in 29 minutes per game and with the complete respect of Williams. “Marcus, right now, is Orlin Wagner/AP Photo a distributor who is going NORTH CAROLINA GUARD MARCUS PAIGE, TOP, to be a better scorer,” WilTRIES TO WRESTLE A POSSESSION from Villanova’s liams said. “He’s a tough Tony Chennault during the Tar Heels’ 78-71 victory little nut that I think is goFriday in Sprint Center.

That includes having ence provides the Tar

Heels the stability they lacked the last time they faced the Jayhawks. “In our system, and in a lot of systems, the point guard makes everything happen. They make the team go,” Paige said. “I think me being out there does give our whole team more confidence.” Added junior guard Leslie McDonald, who also missed last year’s game against KU because of injury: “Any time you have your floor general on the court, you have that confidence in your team. When Kendall went down, you could see that a little confidence left.” The fact Paige is playing in this game might be destiny. Kansas and North Carolina were his finalists out of Marion, Iowa, and Paige was noticeably excited about the opportunity to take on the Jayhawks (30-5) so early in his career. “I was really, really close to committing to Kansas my sophomore year,” the 6-foot, 157-pound freshman said. “They use their bigs, they like to run, both teams defend well. They’re pretty similar teams, and they both have great coaches, so it’ll be a fun game.”

Matt Tait’s North Carolina Notebook Roy talks KU — again North Carolina coach Roy Williams, the former KU coach who spent 15 seasons in Lawrence from 1989-2003 once again was asked about the emotions he feels about facing his former school. Williams said he had been pleased by the warm reception he had received this week in Kansas City and added that, after 10 years, he believes some of the anger about him leaving may have subsided. “Time heals all wounds,” Williams said. “People told me that. It’s taken me a long time to realize that.... The people have been really nice. There’ve been people driving by on the streets when we’re out walking in the morning that have been yelling, saying nice things. I only had one yell something that wasn’t quite as nice. But that’s part of it. This is a special place. Basketball out here is extremely important.... I love the passion of the Kansas fans. It’s just off the charts. Coach Dean Smith and myself are probably the only two people who know what actually goes on. The people at North Carolina

stand, because I will never walk out of that far tunnel, that will never happen.”

NORTH CAROLINA GUARD P.J. HAIRSTON LAUGHS as he takes a question during interviews Saturday in Kansas City, Mo. think, ‘Kansas can’t be that good. They can’t have the same feelings for basketball as we do.’ And the people at Kansas say, ‘Those North Carolina people are OK, but they can’t have the same passion and feelings for basketball that we do.’ Coach Smith and I used to talk about it. We were the only two people that understood what was going on at both places. And I’ve loved both places.” Williams loves Allen Fieldhouse but will never return as opposing coach.

“When you walk into Allen Fieldhouse, I said this before I left, the day I ever walked in Allen Fieldhouse and I didn’t get cold chills, I’d know it was time to stop (coaching),” he said. “I feel the same in the Smith Center. If I walk out on game night, don’t have cold chills, I’ll quit. “Someone asked me the other day if I would ever consider coming and playing a home-and-home against Kansas, I said no. My athletic director would understand, the Pope will under-

Small ball Midway through the season, Williams shifted to a four-guard approach. The move did wonders for the Tar Heels and has them playing their best basketball of the season when it matters most. Williams admitted Saturday that he’s still a little surprised he did it. “It was scary,” he said. “I was not comfortable with it. I’m still not comfortable with it. I’m comfortable with (former Jayhawk big men) Greg Ostertag, Scot Pollard, Raef LaFrentz, Nick Collison, Drew Gooden, Wayne Simien, with those kind of post players that you can play two at the same time and maybe even put a third one in there. (Former UNC big men) Sean May, Jawad Williams, Marvin Williams, Tyler Hansbrough, Tyler Zeller, that’s what I’m more comfortable with.” As for which team will benefit most from the match-up challenge that UNC’s lineup creates, UNC’s Marcus Paige said that could decide this one.

“I think it can go both ways because they have to try to match up with us on the perimeter, but at the same time we have to try our best to match them on the inside,” he said. “Whoever can win that kind of battle is probably gonna win the game.”

Guarding McLemore KU freshman Ben McLemore has scored just 26 points in his last three games, but Kansas’ leading scorer still has the complete attention of UNC’s defense. “I’m up for the challenge,” said Bullock, who revealed that he would start out on McLemore. “We have a similar game. I just have to limit his touches, from getting wide-open jumpers. It’s just going to be my challenge on the defensive end. I’m ready for it.” Road game? Carolina’s fan base figures to be significantly outnumbered today at Sprint Center. “I don’t know how far Lawrence is from here, but I feel like their crowd will be a big part of their game,” said UNC sophomore P.J. Hairston. “That will be like the sixth man on the court.”

“I worked a lot on that this summer,” Withey said. “Coach (Norm) Roberts and I shoot a lot. It’s something I didn’t do really well last year, and a couple of times last year I would get it 15 feet out, but my defender wouldn’t guard me. They would just double T-Rob (Thomas Robinson, now with the Houston Rockets). That’s something I didn’t want to happen this year.” As usual, Withey will guard and be guarded by a shorter opponent, 6-9 sophomore James Michael McAdoo. “I feel like he’s great on the offensive end, too,” McAdoo said. “His teammates look to find him. I think that’s a big thing that we just need to limit his touches deep in the post.” Withey likened North Carolina’s personnel to that of Iowa State, but noted that whereas the Cyclones spread the floor and shoot threes from all five positions, McAdoo does not I feel have that like he’s kind of great on range. “I won’t the ofhave to fensive play out on the pe- end, too. rimeter as His teammuch, so I mates look think that to find helps out our team a him.” lot,” Withey said. — UNC’s James “That way I can Michael McAdoo, on KU’s Jeff clog up Withey the paint. McAdoo’s a great player. I’m not saying he’s not, but I’ll be able to clog up the paint, help everybody out if they get beat off the dribble. I think we have an advantage on the offensive side. I think we can go inside with Kevin and me. Whenever you play against four guards, you have to take advantage of it.” Since surrounding McAdoo with four shooters who command respect behind the three-point line, the Tar Heels have played much better than a No. 8 seed, winning nine of 11 games and making it to the ACC tournament title game. Withey was matched against Tyler Zeller in last season’s Elite Eight game and more than held his own. McAdoo came off the bench at forward for the Heels and scored 15 points. “I know last year he was still a good shotblocker,” McAdoo said of Withey. “But I feel like going into the game last year, we didn’t really look at that as one of the biggest things we were worried about.” That has changed. Western Kentucky coach Ray Harper instructed his players to drive and pass. Too often, they drove and shot, leading to Withey blocking seven shots. North Carolina coach Roy Williams already knows what he’ll do if his guards make the same mistake. “If one of our 6-foot, 3-inch guards gets an offensive rebound and tries to shoot it over Jeff, the next thing you’ll see is we’ll have another 6-foot, 3-inch assistant,” Williams said, meaning the offender will be sitting on the bench. The battle between Withey and McAdoo will play a big part in today’s game. Isn’t it nice to consider how the players will influence the games, instead of focusing on the coaches, especially in this particular game?

Tourney runs in families AUBURN HILLS, MICH. (AP) — Tim Hardaway Jr. can take the questions in stride at this point. Any time Michigan is in the national spotlight, his familiar name stands out — and the queries about his father seem inevitable. “It was hard just to try to follow his footsteps, and you try not to worry about it,” Hardaway said. “You try to leave a legacy of your own. It takes a long time to do that.” Hardaway is one of three Michigan players with fathers who were in the NBA, and the Wolverines aren’t the only team with some famous names in this NCAA tournament. John Stockton’s son plays for Gonzaga, and Danny Manning’s is with Kansas. Several of college basketball’s top performers are from athletic families, and some of these players have already conjured memories of generations past. Hardaway scored 21 points to lead Michigan over South Dakota State on Thursday, and he had plenty of help from Glenn Robinson III, who added 21 of his own. Hardaway’s father, of course, was a standout in the NBA, and Robinson’s was a star at Purdue who scored 44 points in a win over Kansas during the 1994 NCAA tournament. The Wolverines also have a backup forward named Jon Horford. His brother Al plays for the Atlanta Hawks, and his father Tito made it to the pros too. David Stockton has played in all 34 games this season for Gonzaga, where his father also played. Evan Manning is the son of Danny Manning, who led the Jayhawks to the 1988 title. He plays sparingly off KU’s bench with Tyler Self and Niko Roberts, sons of coach Bill Self and assistant Norm Roberts. Then there’s Montana coach Wayne Tinkle, whose Grizzlies lost to Syracuse on Thursday night in San Jose, Calif. At least the location was convenient. Tinkle’s daughter Joslyn plays at Stanford and took a break from preparing for her own NCAA tournament to watch her dad coach. Joslyn Tinkle watched the game with her brother, mother and two teammates. Her younger sister, Elle, was back at Gonzaga preparing for her NCAA tournament opener on Saturday against Iowa State. All these young athletes are trying to enjoy their own competitive experiences and make marks of their own — with the support of family members who have already done it, like Hardaway’s father. “He just tells me to go out there, have fun, just play my hardest,” Hardaway said. “And he’s behind me 100 percent.”

BIG 12 ROUNDUP

Oklahoma 78, Central Michigan 73 COLUMBUS, OHIO — Joanna McFarland stepped in when no one else would for Oklahoma, then Aaryn Ellenberg waited until the right moment to take over. McFarland had 18 points and a career-high 17 rebounds and Ellenberg scored 18 of her 22 points in the second half Saturday to lead the Sooners to a victory over Central Michigan in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. They made for quite a lethal tandem. “She’s just a beast,� CMU coach Sue Guevara said of 6-foot-3 McFarland. Oklahoma coach Sherri Coale said of Ellenberg, her three-point specialist: “That’s how she plays. The points come in fits and starts. She calmed down, let the game come to her and found her spots.� Sixth-seeded Oklahoma (23-10) advances to Monday night’s second-round game against UCLA, a 6649 winner over Stetson, at Ohio State’s St. John Arena. It was clear who the Sooners wanted to play. “We’d definitely like to see UCLA advance,� McFarland said. The Bruins came to Norman, Okla., on Nov. 14 and thoroughly outplayed the home team in an 86-80 victory. The Sooners have not forgotten. As if that weren’t enough motivation, the Sooners know that if the survive the two rounds in Columbus, they would return to nearby Oklahoma City to play in the regional next week. Despite 24 turnovers,

WACO, TEXAS (AP) — Niveen Rasheed and Princeton can achieve their biggest goal without having to beat Brittney Griner and top-ranked Baylor. The Tigers (22-6) will try today for their school’s first NCAA Tournament win in their fourth straight season as Ivy League champions. A victory over Florida State (22-9) likely would mean a game against the defending champion Lady Bears, who open against Prairie View A&M as the top seed on their home court in the first round of the Oklahoma City Region. “Once we got in Waco yesterday, everything just kind of hit me,� said Rasheed, a two-time Ivy League player of the year. Griner enters the tournament as the No. 2 scorer in Division I history with 3,203 points. She’ll need to average 32 points a game in another national cham-

OKLAHOMA’S SHARANE CAMPBELL, LEFT, and Joanna McFarland celebrate during the second half of a first-round NCAA Tournament game. The Sooners defeated Central Michigan, 78-73, on Saturday in Columbus, Ohio. the Sooners had just enough to hold off the Chippewas (21-12), who were making their third trip to the NCAA and first since 1984. Crystal Bradford had a sensational game for CMU with a career-high 36 points (on 14 of 31 shooting from the field) plus 14 rebounds and seven steals. “I was playing with everything I’ve got,� said the sophomore, who averaged 15.5 points during the season. “It hurt more to give it all and come up short.� Ellenberg, who held Oklahoma’s season (103) and career (272) records for three-pointers made, hit 4 of 5 in the second half to rally her team, which was struggling to hold onto the lead. She hit three in a row during one span for the Sooners. With 3:11 left and late in the shot clock, she hit another to extend the lead to 71-60. “When they got close, we knew we had to gather ourselves,� Ellenberg said.

pionship season to catch career leader Jackie Stiles of Missouri State. Right now, Griner just wants to play. The Lady Bears have been sitting around for almost two weeks since winning the Big 12 tournament by an average of 23 points over three games. Baylor (32-1) has won 30 straight since an early loss to Stanford, also a No. 1 seed in the NCAAs. “It’s been two long weeks, and it’s time to play,� Griner said. “We’re definitely ready to get on the floor and just start hooping.� Prairie View (17-14) is making its third straight appearance as a 16th seed and Southwestern Athletic Conference tournament champion, this time after a four-overtime victory against Mississippi Valley State. The Lady Panthers lost to Baylor 66-30 in this same scenario two years ago, and were wiped out by Connecticut in 2012.

Iowa St. 72, Gonzaga 60 SPOKANE, WASH. — Chelsea Poppens scored 19 points, Hallie Christofferson scored 11 of her 18 in the second half, and fifth-seeded Iowa State ended No. 12 seed Gonzaga’s dominance at home in

the NCAA women’s tournament. Gonzaga went 4-0 the past two seasons playing on its home floor at the McCarthey Athletic Center during the NCAAs in reaching the round of 16. Iowa State (24-8) finally solved beating Gonzaga at home thanks to dynamic shooting from behind the three-point line and an awful shooting performance by the Bulldogs. Brynn Williamson hit five three-pointers and scored 17 points for the Cyclones. Taelor Karr led Gonzaga (27-6) with 15 points, but the Bulldogs shot just 32 percent. Iowa State advanced out of the first round for the first time since 2010, when it won twice at home and reached the regional semifinals before falling to Connecticut. The Cyclones outlasted the Bulldogs despite committing 23 turnovers and having to play before a raucous pro-Gonzaga crowd that crammed nearly every spot of the 6,000-seat arena. The Cyclones made up for the turnovers by hitting threes from deep and challenging Gonzaga’s shots.

South Florida 71, Texas Tech 70 LUBBOCK, TEXAS — Inga Orekhova scored 20 points, including five threes, to lead No. 10 South Florida past Texas Tech. Andrell Smith added 13 points in the win over the seventh-seeded Lady Raiders. Texas Tech led most of the way, but three straight field goals by Smith with about 13 minutes left gave South Florida a 46-44 lead. Christine Hyde hit back-to-back baskets to tie it at 59 and Orekhova hit her final three to tie it at 66 with 1:09 left. Smith hit two free throws, Tiffany Conner added one and Alisia Jenkins hit two with four seconds left to make it 71-67 and seal the win for the Bulls (22-10). Hyde scored 20 points and Chynna Brown added 17 to lead Texas Tech (2111). The Bulls will play No. 2 seed California in the second round Monday night. Smith and her sister Andrea Smith were contained in the first half, finishing with a combined four points.

KANSAS-COLORADO

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD

KU women CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

upset a former Big 12 foe, bettering Nebraska, 57-49, in the first round. Colorado (25-7) left the Big 12 for the Pac-12 in 2011, which ended a 29-year streak of consecutive meetings between the teams. “I thought it was just kind of ironic, honestly,� Jayhawks coach Bonnie Henrickson said. “It was a bit ironic that we had Nebraska last year and then Colorado this year.� Some questioned KU playing in the tournament at all after the Jayhawks finished the season with an 8-10 conference record. Last year, KU bowed out of the tournament after losing to Tennessee in the Sweet 16 and returned four starters from that team. “Well, there were doubters last year, too, and we came out and we just wanted to show what we could do,� Goodrich said. “If there are doubters now, and I’m sure there are, we don’t really look into that. We just want to go out there and play and have fun and play for each other and just show what we can do as a team, and I feel like we did that tonight.� In its 13th NCAA Tournament appearance, Kansas grabbed 33 defensive rebounds to Colorado’s 24, and the Jayhawks dominated in the paint, outscoring the Buffs, 30-20. After averaging 39.9 percent during the regular season, CU shot a dismal 25.4 percent, while KU made 45.9 percent of its field goals and was perfect from the free-throw line, going 6-for-6. Winning by 15 points, Kansas tied its largest margin of victory in the NCAAs, something the team hadn’t done since 1996 against Middle Tennessee State. Kansas scored first with a layup from Davis, but

KANSAS FORWARD CAROLYN DAVIS (21) SHOOTS OVER COLORADO GUARD CHUCKY JEFFERY (23) and forward Arielle Roberson in the first half of KU’s 67-52 NCAA Tournament victory Saturday in Boulder, Colo. Colorado answered and led by as many as 10 (14-4) in the first half. The Jayhawks regained the lead after an 11-1 run capped by a three-pointer from junior guard Markisha Hawkins (24-21) at 6:06 and held on until halftime, 37-27. “It showed some poise and composure and some maturity from our kids to not panic,� Henrickson said of Colorado’s early lead. “To give our kids credit, to kind of chip away and chip away and chip away in the first half.� KU opened the second

half with a 6-0 run and twice led by 20, at 49-29 and again at 56-36. Davis picked up her third personal foul with 16:32 to play and didn’t return until 7:39 remained. Though she played just 28 minutes, Davis’ team noticed her impact on this year’s postseason play. “We played differently without her last year,� Henrickson said. “It was just good to get her back in to where she could play. (I) can’t say enough for her own perseverance and toughness and her want to prove everybody,

prove the (doctor) that she could come back and play. Somewhere later in life, that’s going to help her.� Five Kansas players scored in the double digits, including guard CeCe Harper, who added 12 from the bench. Goodrich added a game-high eight assists and was the only player from both teams to play the full 40 minutes. Colorado’s leading scorers were freshman forward Arielle Roberson and junior guard Brittany Wilson, both with 11. Roberson led the Buffs with 12 rebounds.

In front of a crowd of 5,347, mostly Buffs fans, the Jayhawks quietly marched away with the game. With less than a minute to play, the Jayhawks spirit squad and traveling fans began singing the Rock Chalk Chant. Hearing that chant made Davis smile. “We lost a lot of games down the stretch, and we’re happy to still have our loyal fans with us,� Davis said. “They still believe in us, and we know we have a great team.� South Carolina, Kansas’ second-round opponent, won in Boulder less than an hour before the Jayhawks took the floor. Davis said the team scouted the Gamecocks “a little bit� in their first-round game against South Dakota State. “We compared them to West Virginia in our league by how tough they are,� she said. “They’re not as big as West Virginia, but they’re athletic, strong and quick, and it’s going to be tough to beat them.�

Scoreless Sporting draws again FOXBOROROUGH, MASS. (AP) — The New England Revolution and Sporting KC played to a scoreless tie Saturday. It was the second straight shutout match for both clubs. New England (1-1-1) is scoreless through 208 minutes, and Sporting KC (1-1-2) is scoreless in 203 minutes. Sporting KC goalie Jimmy Nielsen didn’t have to make a save en route to his second shutout of the season, while New England’s Matt Reis stopped five shots in posting his second shutout. Sporting KC, 0-2-3 in its meetings with New England, had its best scoring chance in the 19th minute when C.J. Sapong banged a ball off of the crossbar out of a goalmouth scramble. During the second half, Sporting KC had two other good chances — a header by Ike Opara off of a corner kick in the 49th minute that was stopped

Royals edge D’Backs, 11-10 SURPRISE, ARIZ. (AP) — Willie Bloomquist isn’t surprised at how well the Kansas City Royals are playing in spring training. And, he said he believes it will carry over into the season. Alex Gordon, Billy Butler and Elliot Johnson homered for the Royals as they defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks 11-10 Saturday. The Royals improved to 20-6-1, matching 2011 (2010-1) for their second most spring training victories. Their most spring wins came in 1999, when they went 22-9. “I think outside looking in, it could be a Kansas City year,� said Bloomquist, a Diamondbacks’ utility player who

played with the Royals in 2009-10. “They’ve got a pretty good dang team. If you ask me, I like where they are at right now. They’ve got a chance to be good for a lot of years. I like their team.� Gordon hit his fourth homer and Butler also connected in the first inning. Johnson hit a tworun homer in the fifth and also had a sacrifice fly. Miguel Montero hit a two-run homer in the Diamondbacks’ five-run seventh, while Alfredo Marte homered in the eighth to tie the score. Marte returned to the big league camp after being optioned March 13 to Triple-A Reno after Adam Eaton’s left elbow injury that will keep him out six to eight weeks.

Jarrod Dyson singled in the Kansas City ninth, stole second, moved to third on a groundout and scored on George Kottaras’ two-out single. Kottaras went 2 for 3 with three RBIs and two walks. “He’s one of those guys that never has a panic at-bat,� Royals manager Ned Yost said. “He always stays within himself. He always knows what he wants to do. He had a great eye at the plate and he gives you a professional at-bat every time.� Right-hander Ervin Santana, who will start the Royals’ second game of the season, allowed four runs, two unearned, on six hits and a walk over six innings.

Crop insurance payout sets record, stirs debate By David Pitt Associated Press

DES MOINES, IOWA (AP) — Farmers will be paid a record $16 billion in crop insurance claims for 2012 because of the widespread drought, a staggering amount that has critics calling for changes to what they say is an inefficient taxpayer subsidy the government cannot afford. While farmers buy crop insurance from private companies, the federal government subsidizes their premiums and picks up the tab for losses over a certain amount. One analyst estimates the federal tab for 2012 will come to about $11 billion. It is the second year in a row that U.S. farmers have received record crop insurance payments as flooding and drought in 2011 was followed by an even worse drought last year. The $16 billion in payments also comes as lawmakers working on a new farm bill have been considering a shift from disaster relief to crop insurance as a more predicable way of protecting farmers from natural disasters. Farmers say they must have some kind of protection, or years like the past two could put them out of business. Ben Steffen, who has crops and livestock near Humboldt, Neb., said he had insurance to cover three-fourths of his losses last year when drought took about a third of his corn and soybeans and two-fifths of his hay. Farmers can buy insurance that covers from 50 percent to 85 percent of the revenue they would have earned and pay premiums based on their coverage. “It’s not a money-making proposition,” Steffen said. “It’s a way to keep you from getting buried by a disaster.”

Taxpayers on hook The most recent report from the Federal Crop Insurance Corp., released last week, put the total payout so far at $15.91 billion, but some claims for 2012 are still pending. Even so, last year’s loss represents at least a 47 percent increase from the

“

It’s not a moneymaking proposition. It’s a way to keep you from getting buried by a disaster.” — Ben Steffen, who has crops and livestock near Humboldt, Neb. $10.8 billion record loss in 2011. Taxpayers will pick up most of the cost. The program run by the Risk Management Agency in the U.S. Department of Agriculture is a three-way venture in which insurance companies sell farmers policies to cover crop losses. The government subsidizes the program by paying about 62 percent of the cost of insurance premiums and farmers pay about 38 percent. When losses exceed premiums, the government ends up picking up most of that cost too, said Bruce Babcock, an agricultural economist at Iowa State University. He estimated that between premium subsidies, crop loss payments and administrative costs, U.S. taxpayers will end up paying about $11 billion for 2012. That’s too much, he said. “I believe farmers need the opportunities to have all the tools they could possibly use to manage their risks,” Babcock said. “I just don’t think they need to be bribed to do so with such high degree of subsidies.” Some agriculture economists think the federal government should set up an emergency fund that sets aside a certain amount of money, perhaps $3 billion a year, to cover unusual disasters. But crop insurers still say their program is a better bet because approval of emergency aid isn’t always certain and crop insurance pays faster. That “stabilizes the supply chain quite a bit” because banks and other companies know farmers will be able to make loan payments and pay their bills even in bad years, said Tom Zacharias, president of National Crop Insurance Services, the nonprofit trade group for insurers that sell policies to farmers.

Debate in Congress A similar debate is being heard in Congress, where Republican Sens. Jeff Flake, of Arizona, and John Duncan, of Tennessee, introduced bills early this month bills to reduce the premium subsidy to pre-2000 levels. Flake said the proposals will save about $40.1 billion over 10 years by cutting the government’s portion of insurance premiums to 37 percent from the current 62 percent. Congress had increased the subsidy to boost participation in the program — a move that was successful in raising the number of insured acres from 215 million acres in 2002 to 282 million acres last year. “The current U.S. fiscal crisis makes a strong argument for a common sense roll back of crop insurance subsidies,” Flake said in a statement. But Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley, another Republican, said it’s better for farmers to buy crop insurance than to go to the federal government for disaster aid every time there’s a significant drought or flood. “It’s either going to be disaster assistance or its going to be crop insurance,” he said. “Isn’t it better for the government to promote risk management and have the farmer plan ahead and probably pay out a lot less taxpayer dollars than you have with disaster assistance?” In central Illinois near Auburn, Mark Reichert was grateful for crop insurance after his 520 acres of corn produced only one-half to two-thirds of their normal yield during the drought. Reichert, 52, had enough insurance to cover 90 percent of his losses. He paid $46 to $50 an acre in premiums last year and expects to buy the same amount of protection at about the same cost this year. He said it essentially allows farmers to go on to farm another year and assures banks holding farm loans that there’s consistent revenue to make payments. “It’s not meant to be a cash cow,” he said of the insurance. “It has performed exactly the way it was meant to perform.”

Anne Frank’s tree to have new life

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Saplings from the chestnut tree that stood as a symbol of hope for Anne Frank as she hid from the Nazis for two years in Amsterdam are being distributed to 11 locations in the United States as part of a project that aims to preserve her legacy and promote tolerance. The tree, one of the Jewish teenager’s only connections to nature while she hid with her family, was diseased and rotted through the trunk when wind and heavy rain toppled it in August 2010. But saplings grown from its seeds will be planted starting in April, when

the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis will put the first one in the ground. The 11 U.S. locations, which also include a park memorializing 9-11 victims in New York City, an Arkansas high school that was the heart of the desegregation battle and Holocaust centers in Michigan and Washington state were chosen by The Anne Frank Center USA from 34 applicants. Winners were selected based on their commitment to equality, demonstration of the consequences of intolerance or historical significance to civil rights and social justice in the U.S., according

to a news release from the center. The tree is referenced several times in the diary that Anne Frank kept during the 25 months she remained indoors until her family was arrested in August 1944. “Nearly every morning I go to the attic to blow the stuffy air out of my lungs,” she wrote on Feb. 23, 1944. “From my favorite spot on the floor I look up at the blue sky and the bare chestnut tree, on whose branches little raindrops shine, appearing like silver, and at the seagulls and other birds as they glide on the wind.”

A suspenseful ‘Stoker’; Harrison Ford coming to K.C.

S

outh Korean director Park Chan-wook is best known in America for his “Vengeance trilogy,� the middle film being 2003’s “Oldboy,� a painful, dazzling, violent film that still generates controversy today. (Spike Lee is remaking the film with Josh Brolin for release later this year.) “Stoker,� opening Friday at Liberty Hall, marks his English-language debut and finds the director working again with extremely stylized imagery and fractured storytelling, but with more implied violence than before. In fact, violence seems to be lurking just outside the frame of every shot of this neo-Southern Gothic thriller. On her 18th birthday, high-school loner India Stoker (Mia Wasikowska) learns that her father has died in a car crash. She then learns of an Uncle Charlie (Matthew Goode) she never knew she had when he suddenly shows up at the house and begins to get very familiar with India’s mother, the cold and remote Evie (Nicole Kidman). With his widened eyes and fixed stare, Uncle Charlie (the namesake of Joseph Cotten’s creepy killer in Hitchcock’s underrated “Shadow of a Doubt�) looks like an overgrown child who has never seen the world before, but he oozes confidence and menace. Wasikowska also radiates an otherworldly quality, from her introverted demeanor to her Puritan wardrobe. It’s as if she were dropped into the present day from another time, which is even more jarring when she goes to school and everything is

later for a fuller picture. The screenplay, by Wentworth Miller, is full of psychosexual overtones, but it doesn’t have much in the way of deep emotional investment. “Stoker� wouldn’t be the thrilling, atmospheric exercise that it is without Park flexing his cinematic muscle. This is very much a director’s movie that, in the hands of a lesser personality, might have been a ho-hum suspense effort.

NEW YORK — Beyonce, who seems to be everywhere as she prepares for her upcoming world tour, is going to be seen in even more places. The 31-year-old singer is featured in H&M’s new ad campaign, announced by the retailer Thursday. Mrs. Carter, as she’s called in the ads, is seen lounging on a beach wearing a sundress, Beyonce short shorts, a bikini and other key items from the summer collection. H&M says the ads, which were shot in the Bahamas, aim to capture the many sides of women, showing Beyonce as strong, vulnerable, sensual, fun, flirtatious and maternal. Beyonce said that thanks to the tropical island setting, she felt more like she was shooting a music video than a commercial. She and her husband, Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, have a yearold daughter, Blue Ivy.

Simon & Garfunkel ARTS NOTES song among 25 to be preserved Musical creates laughs for moms

By Brett Zongker Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Simon & Garfunkel’s song “The Sound of Silence,” written amid the turmoil following President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, and Chubby Checker’s 1960s dance hit “The Twist” are among 25 recordings selected for preservation at the Library of Congress. These are just a few sounds of the 20th century being added to the National Recording Registry on Thursday for long-term preservation for their cultural, artistic and historic importance. The library said Checker’s rendition of “The Twist” became a symbol of the energy and excitement of the early ’60s after “American Bandstand” host Dick Clark chose Checker to record a new version of the song. Later, the 1966 album “Sounds of Silence” by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel was a hit in its day but not before the duo struggled and split early on. Their song “The Sound of Silence” from the aftermath of President Kennedy’s assassination 50 years ago this year had initially flopped — but it became a hit after it was re-edited as a single. That prompted the duo to reunite and quickly record

another album under a similar title. Garfunkel, 71, told The Associated Press he’s thrilled and flattered to have his work preserved in the Library of Congress. He said the hit album was a life changer for him and Simon. “Da da dee, da dee, da dee,” he sang in an interview. “There’s something fundamentally appealing about the simplicity of those lines,” Garfunkel said. “When you look at the little mesh, wire microphone ... and you address people on the other side of the mic, you hope that your performance will be special, and you hope that it will have lasting power,” Garfunkel said. He said he remembers thinking in the ’60s that “if we do really good and give a very special performance to these great Paul Simon songs, we might last right into the next century and be appreciated.” Other selections included the original 1949 cast album for “South Pacific” and the soundtrack to the popular 1977 movie “Saturday Night Fever,” starring John Travolta and featuring the Bee Gees, which revived the disco craze. The selections span from 1918 to 1980 and represent nearly every musical and recording category.

Two Kansas University alumnae have teamed up to create “Mother%$!#Hood,” a musical comedy showing next month at the Lawrence Arts Center. The show — which follows three very different moms as they sing and dance their way through life from pregnancy tests to empty nests — will be at 7:30 p.m. April 5 at the Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Tickets are $10 and available online at or by calling 843-2787. The Arts Center performance will be the public debut of “Mother%$!#Hood,” a stage reading that creators describe as a complete but visually stripped-down version of the production. Writers Julie Dunlap and Sara Stotts met in 1991 at KU, where they were active in Rock Chalk Revue and shared a love of music and comedy. Offstage, Stotts practices physical therapy in Chicago, where she lives with her husband and two children. Dunlap, a part-time writer, lives in Lawrence with her husband and their four children.

Art competition open to high-schoolers High school students in Kansas’ 3rd Congressional District are invited to submit work for this year’s Congressional Art Competition. Students should submit

entries to 3rd District Rep. Kevin Yoder’s Overland Park District Office, 7325 W. 79th St. The deadline is 5 p.m. April 19. An Arts Advisory Committee of 3rd District artists will select the winning entry, which will be displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol. Honorable mentions also will be named. Artwork must be two-dimensional. For size guidelines and other competition details, visit Yoder.house. gov/art-competition or call 913-621-0832.

Wonder Fair plans secret ‘adventure’ To celebrate its fifth anniversary, Wonder Fair is planning a communitydriven art event befitting of its reputation as one of Lawrence’s best-kept secrets. On Friday, the small, upstairs art gallery, shop and studio at 803 1/2 Massachusetts St. will kick off a monthlong “art adventure.” At the helm of the interactive event is a group Wonder Fair calls the Secret Order of the Black Diamond, whose mission — instead of simply hanging art on the walls of Wonder Fair — is to curate a series of experiences throughout Lawrence and the Kansas City area. “Following a series of clues left by the mysterious Black Diamonds, patrons may find themselves discovering new hobbies, magical places, learning new skills, or even stumbling upon hidden troves of art, all free for the taking,”

according to a description from Wonder Fair. To obtain telephone clues for the secret adventures, Wonder Fair asks for a donation of at least $1 to its Secret Order of the Black Diamond Kickstarter project, online at http://kck.st/ WGcYVd. The more patrons pledge, the more elaborate the clues and bonuses they receive, including printmaking workshops and original artwork. The crowd-funding effort aims to raise $3,500 by April 3, and more than $2,450 has been pledged so far. Money is planned to pay for honoraria for artists working on the project and — ultimately — equipment for a hand-pulled print shop that Wonder Fair hopes will ensure it can “continue making affordable print editions for our members forever and ever.”

Noted designer works with local band A sculptor and production designer who has worked with film iconoclasts such as Isabella Rossellini, Guy Madden, John Cameron Mitchell and James Franco will present a multipart “art experience” in collaboration with Lawrence rock band Hospital Ships. Andy Byers’ project, entitled “Servants,” opens from 5-9 p.m. Friday at the Invisible Hand Gallery, 846 Pennsylvania St. Prior to the opening, Byers will give a lecture at 7 p.m. Monday at the Law-

rence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Friday’s opening will include a screening of the “Servants” music video, directed by Byers, plus an accompanying exhibit of the sculptural props, costumes and set elements he created for it — which patrons can view in person as the props come alive in the film. Byers says his approach to materials is “the cheaper the better” except when it comes to paper, which must be flawless. “It’s my equivalent to fine oil paints and horsehair brushes,” he said in an announcement about the project. In perhaps his bestknown work, Byers worked as costume and production designer for Rossellini’s role in the Sundance Channel’s “Green Porno” series.

VIOLINIST, COMPOSER AND YOUTUBE STAR LINDSEY STIRLING will be playing Monday night at the Granada.

Stringing together success —————

Dubstep violinist Lindsey Stirling relishes independence, passionate fanbase By Alex Garrison Special to the Journal-World

It’s amazing, the power of social media. So says Lindsey Stirling, the dubstep violinist, the dancing, emotive popinspired classical music YouTube sensation. Stirling, 26, is as bright and bubbly in conversation as she appears in one of her videos that has 50 million views. Before her sold-out show set for Monday night at The Granada, she spoke excitedly about selling out consistently on her “House of Blues-sized” tour and looking forward to an arena tour within a year, plus another record and collaboration with artists from the electronic world. Her 2012 self-titled debut album, which included the song “Crystalize,” the icy video of which is her most popular, is made up of 10 of her compositions — she’s a frequent collaborator with vocalists and electronic producers, but also somewhat of a one-woman band, writing her own songs and directing her own videos. The music is a mashup of electronica and dubstep, played on her signature violin. Her initial fanbase grew out of the online gamer culture, found via her YouTube covers of music from the video games “Skyrim” and “The Legend of Zelda.” Propelled by an appearance on the reality show “America’s

As an independent artist using social media, I get to do the things I love, and as a result, I only gain the fans that love what I do.” — Lindsey Stirling

Got Talent” in 2010 and supported by “the most loyal fans,” Stirling’s story is one of art for fun’s sake. As a little girl from Gilbert, Ariz., she begged her family for violin lessons but chose not to study music at Brigham Young University to avoid burnout, she says. A few years and a lot of Last. fm plays later, she’s a composer without a traditional record deal but with big dreams. With her self-written collaborations of dreamlike, string-led “Mozart of dubstep” soundscapes, she’s classically trained but popularly elected. Here’s more of her story, in her own words: Alex Garrison: Tell me about how you got started, what led you to becoming a “YouTube star.” Lindsey Stirling: It’s been amazing, the power of social media. I didn’t even know much about it when I started but learned as I went, using Facebook and YouTube to get my music heard. I couldn’t get labels to pay attention to me, so I thought I’d give up that route, sick of people telling me no and ignoring me. When I started us-

LINDSEY STIRLING Dubstep violinist Lindsey Stirling will be performing at 8 p.m. Monday at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. The show is sold out. ing YouTube, that’s when everything changed for me. AG: What are the pros and cons to that approach to a career? LS: It’s awesome that you’re 100 percent in control of everything. As an independent artist using social media, I get to do the things I love, and as a result, I only gain the fans that love what I do. You set yourself up to continue to do what you want, because those are the fans you’ve gathered. You don’t have to wait for people to tell you to go in a direction — you can run with what you want. Heck, you custom build your own platform. On the monetary side, you have to upfront all of your own costs, but then it’s amazing that you don’t have share earnings with a label on the back end. Every time someone buys one

of my CDs, it goes to me and my producers, actually supporting me and not a huge corporation. Fans connect to that. You have to start from scratch, and it’s hard to build a career without promotion. That also makes fans loyal: they weren’t told by radio or TV, they just found me on their own. AG: You achieved fame through social media, but how did you come to the style of music you make? Was that always the plan? LS: I really just thought, ‘What kind if music do I actually listen to? That’s what I should write.’ So I started with covers to my favorite radio hits. Then I wrote my own, and things kept working. Started when I was 6, and begged and begged for lessons. It was the one thing I stuck with, doing lessons and orchestra. Didn’t want to get burnt out, so didn’t study music in college. It’s just ironic that this ended up being my career. I wanted to keep music fun, and I’m actually pretty sure (that’s) why it ended up becoming my career. If I had a more serious approach, I wouldn’t have taken the risks I did. I would have done more what I thought was sellable. By keeping doing something I just loved, I made it my life. I feel so lucky and blessed that I get to do music for a living because it was never the plan, I just worked super hard and did it for the sake of loving it.

NEW YORK — The producers of History’s enormous ratings hit “The Bible” may want to add a disclaimer to future episodes of the religious miniseries: Any resemblance between Satan and President Barack Obama is purely coincidental. Given its subject matter, it was all but inevitable that “The Bible” would become a magnet for controversy, and so it has, though not for the reasons you might expect — like, say, its emphasis on violence or its decidedly European-looking cast. No, the reason that executive producers Roma Downey and Mark Burnett found themselves on the defensive Monday is that a number of viewers, including conservative pundit Glenn Beck, have noticed a resemblance between Obama and Mohamen Mehdi Ouzaani, the actor who plays the Devil in the miniseries. “Anyone else think the Devil in ‘The Bible’ Sunday on History Channel looks exactly like That Guy?” Beck tweeted last Saturday, using his preferred euphemism for the commander in chief. Compared side by side, the two men — both long-faced with prominent ears — do bear a certain resemblance, except that ol’ Beelzebub appears to have aged even more rapidly than Obama. Given the popularity of “The Bible” among Christian conservatives, and Obama’s relative unpopularity with the same demographic, some observers wondered whether its producers were making a political statement. Prompted by the nontroversy, History issued a statement Monday strongly denying any link between Obama and the Prince of Darkness. “History Channel has the highest respect for President Obama,” it read. “It’s unfortunate that anyone made this false connection. History’s ‘The Bible’ is meant to enlighten people on its rich stories and deep history.” Downey and Burnett also weighed in with a statement: “This is utter nonsense. The actor who played Satan, Mehdi Ouzaani, is a highly acclaimed Moroccan actor. He has previously played parts in several biblical epics — including Satanic characters long before Barack Obama was elected as our president.”

Fallon reportedly replacing Leno on ‘Tonight,’ moving to N.Y. By Lynn Elber Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — As Jay Leno lobs potshots at ratings-challenged NBC in his “Tonight” monologues, speculation is swirling the network is taking steps to replace the host with Jimmy Fallon next year and move the show from Burbank to New York. NBC confirmed Wednesday it’s creating a new studio for Fallon in New York, where he hosts “Late Night.” But the network did not comment on a report that the digs at its Rockefeller Plaza headquarters may become home to a transplanted, Fallon-hosted “Tonight.” The New York Times reported the plan in a Wednesday story, citing unidentified network executives. The Hollywood Reporter had a March 1 report about a Fallon-Leno

switch, which was denied by the network. Looming over NBC is its messy, failed effort to replace Leno with Conan O’Brien, which ended in 2010 with Leno regaining “Tonight” and NBC losing O’Brien — who got a $45 million exit deal — to TBS. Leno’s current “Tonight” contract expires in September 2014. That occurred under a different regime, before NBCUniversal was taken over by Philadelphiabased Comcast Corp., which has a reputation for discipline. While NBC dithered and backtracked on its “Tonight” succession plan involving O’Brien, Comcast is likely to be more decisive. “I don’t know if it’s possible to have a less orderly transition than LenoO’Brien,” said analyst Brad Adgate of media-buying firm Horizon Media. Fallon contacted Leno

JAY LENO, HOST of “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” left, and Jimmy Fallon, host of “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” pose backstage Jan. 13 at the 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills, Calif. in an effort to help smooth the potential switch, according to a Hollywood Reporter story Wednesday. The latest roiling of the late-night waters began in January when ABC moved “Jimmy Kimmel Live” back to 11:35 p.m. Eastern

to offer direct competition to Leno and CBS’ David Letterman. With the potential for Kimmel, 45, to draw advertiser-favored young viewers away from Leno (62) and Letterman (65), it’s unsurprising that their networks might step up

their succession planning. At 38, Fallon is the youngest of the pack. Leno, who took over “Tonight” from Johnny Carson in 1992, did not respond Wednesday to a request for comment. But he might be taking advantage of other ways to communicate — the “Tonight” stage and its audience of millions. Although late-night hosts are known for needling their network bosses on-air, the timing of Leno’s latest jabs at NBC seemed to make the network particularly uncomfortable. They reportedly asked him to stop; he hasn’t. “You know the whole legend of St. Patrick, right? St. Patrick drove all the snakes out of Ireland — and then they came to the United States and became NBC executives,” Leno joked on Monday’s show. Leno, who briefly moved to prime-time to

make room for O’Brien, has proved himself a wily survivor. Despite the challenge from Kimmel, he and “Tonight” have remained top-rated so far. But if a change is destined, NBC could be eying next year’s Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, as a premium launch pad for a revamped “Tonight,” analyst Adgate said. “If they’re going to do it, it makes sense to do it when NBC is dominating television for 17 days,” he said, and can heavily promote the “Tonight” switch. “They could have Fallon in Sochi, talking it up.” In the April issue of GQ magazine, “Late Night” producer Lorne Michaels said a transition to Fallon had “an inevitability to it,” adding that he was the closest to Carson that I’ve seen of this generation.”

THE ODD RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER, LEFT AND RICHARD M. NIXON, pictured here in 1952, is the subject of Jeffrey Frank’s new book “Ike and Dick: Portrait of a Strange Political Marriage.”

The odd couple —————

‘Ike and Dick’ chronicles strange Nixon-Eisenhower pairing Morgan Brunelli, student, Chicago “‘The Lost Wife’ (by Alyson Richman). It’s a love story that takes place during World War II.”

Karin Barrett, works at The Blue Dandelion, Lawrence “My book group read ‘The Chaperone’ (by Laura Moriarty). We all loved it.”

Grace Daniels, works at the Lawrence Public Library, Lawrence “‘Beautiful Creatures’ (by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl). It’s a typical paranormal teen book.”

By Peter M. Gianotti Newsday

As disbelief and recrimination descend into stasis and filibuster, the national Republican Party may seek the comfort of less-recent history. Two new books provide it. Jeffrey Frank’s evocative, clear-eyed “Ike and Dick” (Simon & Schuster, $30) is subtitled “Portrait of a Strange Political Marriage.” Eisenhower and Nixon were an odder coupling that Felix and Oscar. But they won two landslide elections, in 1952 and 1956. The old general who led the Allies to victory in World War II was revered for leadership and heroism. Parades welcomed him home. The young California congressman was known for red-baiting and killerinstinct politics. He attended a parade for Ike. After reading Frank’s riveting account of their relationship, you may feel some sympathy for often-reviled Richard Nixon and coolness toward the invariably revered Dwight D. Eisenhower. The two had, Frank observes, “a fluctuating, unspoken level of discomfort.” Frank, a senior editor at The New Yorker, says Nixon “could never be sure what Eisenhower thought of him.” Eisenhower didn’t choose Nixon as a running mate; a “smoky room” of GOP elders did. Ike tried to dump him in each campaign. But he “had no trouble ordering Nixon to un-

dertake some of his nastiest chores.” Slights were common; support, vague. Nixon said he often felt “like a junior officer coming in to see the commanding General.” Frank sharply underscores how both men used each other with considerable success, even though they differed on many issues. Nixon, long before he pursued the resentment-andrace-based “Southern strategy” to court white voters, supported the Supreme Court’s school desegregation ruling. Eisenhower, who’d send the 101st Airborne to Little Rock to escort students, was “doubtful” about it and “a little squeamish” over civil rights. Eisenhower didn’t think much about the launch of the Soviet satellite, Sputnik; Nixon understood its importance in preparedness. Eisenhower wanted no part of a war in Indochina. Nixon would have backed the French. Eisenhower’s uncertain health, from heart attacks on, spurred talk of Nixon succeeding him. Eisenhower later said that the GOP had “a lot of darn good men that could be used.” During Nixon’s 1960 campaign against John F. Kennedy, Eisenhower

was asked if he had adopted any of Nixon’s major ideas. Ike famously, and awkwardly, said “If you give me a week, I might think of one. I don’t remember.” After the loss, Eisenhower wrote to Nixon expressing “my official confidence in you.” Near death in 1968, Ike endorsed him. By then, his grandson David had married Julie Nixon. Following the inauguration, Nixon visited Eisenhower in the hospital. The next month, Eisenhower died. His body would lie in state in the Capitol Rotunda. Nixon eulogized him. He left and wept. Frank writes that the tears are “better explained by Nixon’s continuing sadness at never having been admitted to the general’s small, rarely expanded circle, the one that he reserved for friends. Nixon was outside that circle even when his daughter became an Eisenhower and now it was closed to him forever.” Watergate ended Nixon’s presidency in disgrace. Milton Eisenhower, Ike’s brother, said, “I’m glad that the President did not live to see the things that man did.” Nixon’s own chosen vice president, Spiro Agnew, resigned in a kickback scandal.

Nixon died in 1994. He wrote several books, including one titled “Leaders.” It had no separate chapter on Ike.

‘A minimalist president’ While “Ike and Dick” is less about the subjects’ influences and policies than their personal connection, Amity Shlaes’ “Coolidge” (Harper, $35) definitely covers the 30th president’s. This is biography as hagiography. Shlaes is a trustee of the Calvin Coolidge Memorial Foundation and directs the Four Percent Growth Project at the George W. Bush Presidential Center. Her life of Coolidge is detailed, informative and meant to convert. She terms him “a minimalist president,” “our great refrainer” and a man “thrifty to the point of harshness.” Under Coolidge “the federal debt fell ... the federal budget always was in surplus.” And she likens him to Ronald Reagan, who put a portrait of Coolidge in his office. But, that gesture aside, Reagan didn’t follow Coolidge’s path. Coolidge’s zeal for cuts ultimately was shortsighted and ill-timed. Coolidge believed “the national household resembled the family household,” a ridiculous proposition the faithful repeat today. And Shlaes blithely notes, “A market correction was due in 1929. Coolidge himself anticipated that drop.” And did what? One of the blurbs on the dust jacket is from Paul Ryan.

BRIEFLY Sandberg book scores big sales NEW YORK — Sheryl Sandberg has the ear, and the eyes, of the country’s book buyers. Sandberg’s “Lean In” sold 140,000 copies its first week of publication, has gone back to press seven times for additional printings and now has 400,000 copies in print, publisher Alfred A. Knopf announced Wednesday. It has been at No. 1 on Amazon.com’s best seller list since coming out March 11 and will be No. 1 on the hard cover and e-book nonfiction lists appearing in the March 31 edition of the New York Times. It also has placed high on lists for Barnes & Noble and independent sellers, topping the nonfiction list for IndieBound, a list for independent stores. Facebook’s chief operating officer is hoping to create a national movement to help women advance in the workforce and her book became the focus of intense debate well before publication. “‘Lean In’ is resonating with readers and animating conversations across the country,” said Knopf’s head of publicity, Paul Bogaards, who noted that sales have been strong despite just a brief promotional tour by Sandberg.

LONDON — A collection of some of Princess Diana’s most memorable evening gowns, including one she wore to a White House dinner where she danced with John Travolta, fetched over $1.2 million at a London auction Tuesday. Diana famously wore the deep navy, figure-hugging velvet gown to a gala dinner hosted by President Ronald Reagan, during her and Prince Charles’ first joint state visit to the U.S. in 1985. Photographs of her taking to the White House dance floor with Travolta have become some of the most celebrated images of the princess. The Victor Edelstein gown was sold for 240,000 pounds, Kerry Taylor Auctions said. It came slightly below the expected maximum price of 300,000 pounds. The auction house did not disclose the identity of the buyer, only saying it was sold to a “British

gentleman as a surprise to cheer up his wife.” Nine other of Diana’s dresses were sold to bidders, which came from around the world and included three museums, the auction house said. Two dresses by Catherine Walker, one of Diana’s favorite designers, went for 108,000 pounds each. They were a black velvet and beaded gown worn for a Vanity Fair photo shoot by Mario Testino at Kensington Palace in 1997, and a burgundy crushed velvet gown the princess wore to the film premiere of “Back to the Future” in 1985. Diana sold dozens of her dresses at a New York charity auction at the suggestion of her son, Prince William, in 1997 — three months before she died in a Paris car crash. Florida-based socialite Maureen Dunkel bought about a dozen of the dresses — including 10 to be sold next month — and put them up for auction in Canada in 2011, but the prices were set too high and many dresses didn’t sell.

Mother believes daughter is endangering grandchildren Dear Annie: My daughter, “Ashley,” is divorced and has four children. She has had numerous volatile boyfriends. The last guy sliced the tires on her car. Ashley says I need to mind my own business, so I have been quiet about her poor choices. But her latest guy is listed in the state registry of sex offenders for molesting an 11-yearold girl when he was 19. He served two years in prison and claims he is innocent. Ashley has been letting the guy stay at her house. He is unemployed and doesn’t need to be anywhere. I am frightened for my grandchildren. I called the police, but they said there is no prohibition on having him live in a home with young children. The children’s fathers have been uninvolved

I also have considered calling the local child protection agency, but I don’t want them to take the children away from Ashley.

It also could be a wake-up call for Ashley to get the guy out of her house and pay more attention to the consequences of her choices.

The mechanics of the legal procedural vanish when Baden arrives, alone, at Spector’s “castle.” Spector emerges from the shadows to greet his guest, not with legal chitchat, but with a long harangue about the making of the 1968 Dion single “Abraham, Martin and John.” Both Baden and the audience are immediately aware that we are in the presence of a rambling obsessive. Spector announces himself as a brilliant, paranoid, grandiose, mad recluse obsessed with his place in a history and completely unaware that his “legend” means nothing to anybody younger than 50. To call this extended visit anything less than spellbinding would be a lie. This may emerge as one of the more memorable performances in Pacino’s long career. And that’s saying a lot.
