T.J. Cross, a stand-up comedian, falls down in a fit of ecstacy during Def Comedy Jam last Friday night at Zellerbach Theatre. The event, which featured five comedians, was hosted by the Social Planning and Events Committee to Represent Undergraduate Minorities, an arm of SPEC.

'Def Comedy Jam' lights up Zellerbach Friday's comedy show was sponsored by SPEC-TRUM as part of Perm's Winterfest '99.

By Jon Rosen The Dally Pennsylvanian

Laughs flowed freely through Zellerbach The- atre on Friday as a packed crowd of students and local residents turned out for the live version of Russell Simmons' Def Comedy Jam.

The event, which featured five comedians, was hosted by the Social Planning and Events Committee To Represent Undergraduate Mi- norities and attracted an audience of about 950

people. The comedy show was the centerpiece of the

University's third annual Winterfest weekend. Jam was hosted by Joe C lair, who is also host

of the Black Entertainment Television cable channel's Rap City.

During the show, comedians T.J. Cross, Ger- ald Kelly, Dominique and feature act Talent poked fun at issues ranging from drugs, to sex- ual practices, to school shootings. They also made frequent jokes about racial differences.

Cross, for instance, made fun of college stu- dents who act like gang members.

"How you going to be in a gang in college? What are you going to fight over? Books?" Cross joked, drawing a loud round of laughter from the audience.

And while some audience members may have taken offense to certain jokes — which included one about the mass murder at Columbine High School last spring — Clair suggested to the crowd that they remember the show was "just comedy."

The show opened with DJ Kid Capri, a well- known personality from the televiRion show. Capri mixed a number of hip-hop albums through a set of booming speakers placed on the stage. The crowd bounced to the music for 15 minutes before Clair was brought out to perform some stand-up comedy of his own and introduce the other comedians.

Many audience members laughed consistently

SAS is ushering \ students into the information age An initiative will combine teaching and technology in the classroom.

By Aliya Sternstein The Daily Pennsylvania!)

As the Internet becomes a com- mon classroom tool across the coun- try, School of Arts and Sciences officials are working to combine teaching and technology at Penn.

The school's three-pronged effort will focus on using technology in and out of the classroom, preparing stu- dents for the information age and ex- panding distance learning, SAS Dean Samuel Preston said.

"A lot is going on on different fronts," Preston said.

He stressed that it is crucial for both students and faculty to learn about the Internet outside of the college envi- ronment, adding that faculty at Penn are usually "way behind the student body" in utilizing the World Wide Web.

Preston said SAS' three goals have not yet come to full fruition.

"These [programs] have proven elusive except in highly specialized niches," Preston said.

To help achieve the classroom tech- nology goal, Preston allocated $100,000 last year for innovative classroom In- ternet appUcaAions — specifically new fall 2000 courses and possibly a de- partment or major in the future.

Preston said developing a depart- ment would be "difficult" and remains only a suggestion at this point.

The fund, introduced to SAS pro- fessors this past fall, will offer $10,000 for each approved course once faculty proposals are reviewed in January.

The courses, held in both classroom

space and cyberspace, will alter the type of contact between students and professors, but will not cut back on in- teraction, according to SAS Associate Dean for Graduate Studies Joseph Far- rell, who also supervises the school's distributed learning programs.

"This is about changing how we learn and how we teach," Farrell said, adding that the program is as much "pedagogical" as "technological."

The second goal, preparing stu- dents for the information age, is the most challenging, Preston said. He noted that many professors are not knowledgeable enough to teach stu- dents about information technology.

College of Arts and Sciences Dean Richard Beeman said the College should recruit faculty who will pre- pare students for the future, through their technological expertise.

"I feel that the College must do much more than it is presently do- ing," Beeman said.

The third focus — extending dis- tance-learning opportunities to reach people outside of the University com- munity — is currently popular among many institutions, according to Pre- ston.

"[Wei are pursuing the third goal, in part because it extends the reach of the faculty and in part because there are thought to be pots of gold at the end at the cable" Preston said.

This past summer, the College of General Studies administered Pen- nAdvance, a for-credit distance-learn- ing program that enabled students from 15 cities to take Penn classes through a combination of live satellite broadcasts, videoconferencing tech- nology and the Internet, according

Five Penn groups, one good cause The troupes' performance raised money for the West Phila. Cultural Alliance.

By Alison Stein The Daily Pennsylvanian

Mixing entertainment and a good cause, five of Penn's performing arts groups headed into the "Wawa West" on Saturday night.

Some of Penn's most well-known singing and dancing troupes performed together for fellow students while raising money for the West Philadelphia arts community.

Hosted and organized by Mask and Wig member Josh Slatko, a College se- nior, the event featured performances by African Rhythms, Off the Beat, Onda Latina, Without a Net and Mask and Wig.

The event was sponsored by the Un- dergraduate Assembly, the Performing

Arts Council and the Tangible Change Committee, a group of student leaders promoting non-alcoholic programming on campus.

The groups each kept their acting, singing and dancing routines brief so that all five could perform.

Slatko said Mask and Wig sought to have a variety of popular and talented performers — combining singing, danc- ing and comedy.

While entertaining the audience with dance and music, the groups also tried to educate Penn students about the im- portance of community service and par- ticipation in the arts.

Penn donated about 50 tickets to local elementary school students. The chil- dren were able to participate in the show, yelling out improvisational commands to I hi' actors in Without A Net.

"I think that the Penn community liked the idea of a charity function," Slatko said. "People appreciated what the show was about."

The proceeds from the evening were

donated to the West Philadelphia Cul- tural Alliance, an organization that en- courages participation in the arts through educating residents of the West Philadelphia community.

The WPCA, which was founded in 1984 by its executive director Francis Aulston. makes art available to local residents through exhibitions, concerts and inter- active education. A large part of the pro- gram is the administration and maintenance of The Paul Robeson House Museum and Library—the last home of Paul Robeson, the legendary African- American scholar, athlete, singer and activist.

Aulston and the WPCA have had a 15- year history with Penn, working with graduate students in urban development as well as undergraduate volunteers for Civic House. The WPCA hosts the Greening Program, a community ser- vice project run through Civic House that tries to clean the streets of West

Call for hoops courts in UA's weekly session

By Jeffrey Joseph fne Daily Pennsylvanian

The Undergraduate Assembly passed a resolution calling for outdoor basketball courts, amended its by-laws, discussed the University's future policy for releasing the names of violent students and saw a committee chairperson resign his position at last night's weekly meeting.

The 26 members present at the meeting voted unanimously to pass the outdoor basketball courts resolution, which called upon the University to con- struct at least two courts on the roof of the parking garage at the corner of 38th and Spruce streets.

Early last month, the UA submitted a proposal to administrators for the construction of courts. The resolution wul be presented to Provost Robert Barchi

Recently released FALN terrorist speaks at Penn Ricardo Jiminez is one of 10 Puerto Ricans President Clinton granted clemency.

By Michael Sonsino The Daily Pennsylvanian

Ricardo Jiminez is one of 10 members of the Puerto Rican group FALN recently granted clemency by President Clinton — a distinction that makes him a leading advocate for an independent Puerto Rico.

Jiminez spoke on Thursday at an event sponsored by the Asociacion Cul- tural de Estudiantes Latino Americanos, Connaissance, SPEC and Lambda Up- silon Lambda.

Arrested in 1980, Jiminez and several other members of FALN — which trans- lates to Armed Forces for National Lib- eration — were released in September, a move that caused a political uilfoar for

Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, a potential candidate for the U.S. Senate in New York, which has a high percentage of Latino voters.

He began his presentation to the group of about 30 students assembled in Stiteler Hall with a history of what he called the "in- vasion" of Puerto Rico, from the Spanish conquest of the island to its present con- dition as a commonwealth of the United States, a status that Jiminez calls "a farce."

"Colonialism is a crime under inter- national law," Jiminez said. "And Puerto Rico is a colony."

Born in Puerto Rico, Jiminez was raised in Chicago. He described his fam- ily as "authentic Puerto Rican," recount- ing how his mother prohibited him and his sibling from speaking English "in casa."

Jiminez joined the Puerto Rican inde- pendence movement as a teenager. Soon after, he became involved in "the highest

Orchestra, choir perform at Irvine By Joshua Liez The Daily IVnnsylvawan

Penn's famed Irvine Auditorium, the im mense concert hall on the eastern end of campus, has had its share of acoustic prob lems and construction delays in its nearly 80 years of existence.

Now, however. Irvine is looking might} ip pealing.

On Friday night, the University Symphony Orchestra and the University Choral Sodetj tried out the new. more mellifluous Irvine with a joint concert performed before • sold out crowd of 1.800 people

It was the first time the two groups had per formed together in two > MTI

The program included two of the more renowned and challenging works written for a combined orchestra and choir. Arnold Sohoen- berg's Friede aufErden or Ftem >«i Earth — and Beethoven's rVtntt Symphony,

The event marked the Inauguration of Irvine as the permanent performance hall of both groups, according to Hecma Christian, the con- cert coordinator for the Music Department.

In past years, the lack of a true concert hall

forced the orchestra and choir to play at other campus venues, such as the Annenberg Center and the Cathedral Church of the Savior.

"Now we haw a home in that we can re- hearse here and play here," Christian said. In the past, she noted, it required a great deal of work to transport instruments from practice halls to the performance sites.

Now. much to the happiness of both groups, I ho practice and performance sites are all tin der one roof.

The performance of Beethoven's Ninth f as especially momentous for both orchestra and choir because it marked the Ituladelphia uVlmi of a new edition of the symphony. Orchestra Director Ricardo Averbach said

Musicologists recently discovered many im- perfections in previous performance editions, including wrong notes and tempos. The cor- rected edition, according to Averbach, is far more true to what Beethoven had in mind.

Beethoven's Ninth was years ahead of its time when it was written, he explained, point ing to the fact that it was almost twice the length of traditional symphonies. It was also the first time choir soloists accompanied an or chestral performance of a symphony.

Laughter, comedy rock

throughout the two-hour duration of the show. Several times. Clair even di- rected humor at the audience — two outspoken female audience members served as targets as Clair made fun of them until they quieted down.

After the show, several comedians praised the enthusiasm of the crowd, which included some students from Drexel and Temple universities, but was overwhelmingly composed of Penn students.

"[The audience l was off the hook— high energy — we hope for this kind of crowd," Clair said.

College sophomore Shamika Lee, a SPEC-TRUM co-director, said she considered the show a success.

"Everyone I spoke to said they had a great time," Lee said. "I had a couple people walk up to me to say that it was good to have a laugh before finals."

Def Comedy Jam enjoyed a sever- al-year run on HBO in the early 1990s and now travels the country doing live performances. Conceived by co- median Russell Simmons, the show takes its name from Simmons' Def Jam Records.

"People at the time said, 'This is crazy,'" Averbach said. "But it went on to become "maybe the most important piece [of all time |."

Traditional versions of the symphony were quite flawed, according to Averbach. He likened Beethoven's notes on his Ninth Sym- phony to a doctor writing a prescription. He wrote quickly, and often notes were mis- copied by printers upon publishing. The re- sult was a symphony that was not as it was intended to be.

College freshman Julia Gottlieb, a bassist with the orchestra, agreed with Averbach.

"It was very exciting to premiere the new edition, to be a part of history," she said.

Aside from the novelty of playing a new edition, one of the aspects that makes the Ninth special to many of the musicians is that it is played with choral accompaniment, Concert Master and Orchestra President Tony Park said.

"The BMFBJI in the orchestra shot up in a second Iwhen the orchestra began practicing with the choirl," Park said. "There's nothing like a million voices that are singing together with the orchestra.

Ren dell names new school board members

Mayor Ed Rendell appointed three new members and two in- cumbents to the Philadelphia Board of Education on Saturday from a list of potential candidates that included two Penn professors and the wife of a former Universi- ty President.

Local businessperson Michael Karp, former teacher Helen Cun- ningham and civic leader Ernest Jones were chosen from a pool of 20 candidates. They will join incum- bents Dorothy Simmers Rush and Andrew Earnese on the nine-mem- ber board.

Communications Professor Lar- ry Gross, English Professor Peshe Kuriloff and attorney Lucy Hack- ney — wife of former University president and current History Pro- fessor Sheldon Hackney — were on the list, but were not named to the board.

Hackney said she was delighted to hear that Cunningham, a close friend, would be on the board, and that she herself was not disap- pointed.

"We talked and said that we would both feel really good if ei- ther she or I was appointed," Hackney said.

Gross and Kuriloff could not be reached for comment yesterday.

Although Rendell consulted with Mayor-elect John Street prior to making his decision, come May, un- der a new policy, Street will have the option of retaining or rejecting Rendell's appointments.

GOP candidate Katz to talk in Logan Hall

Defeated mayoral candidate Sam Katz will speak to students from Penn for Katz and the College Re- publicans tonight in the Terrace Room in Logan Hall at 7:30 p.m.

Katz posed a formidable chal- lenge to Mayor-elect John Street with his moderate conservative platform focused on tax reform. He lost to Street by approximately 10,000 votes, the closest mayoral election in modern city history.

College senior Patrick Ruffini, a Katz volunteer and a Penn for Katz member, organized the event, which he said will provide many supporters with the opportunity to meet Katz

"A lot of people in our organiza- tion worked very hard for him," Ruffini said

About 60 students were involved in Penn for Katz and several other stu- dents volunteered for the campaign

Ruffini said the structure of the event has not been determined, but Katz will most likely speak about his campaign and the future of Philadelphia.

Jorum to be held on campus development

A public forum on the Universi- ty's campus development plan, which outlines ground rules for fu- ture architectural and landscaping projects on campus, will be held to- day from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in College Hall Room 200.

The Office of the University Ar- chitect and the Olin Partnership — a local landscape and architectural design firm chosen last April to con- duct a campus development review — will discuss transportation is- sues concerning the University, in- cluding public transit, automobile, bicycle and pedestrian traffic.

This is the chance to get every- one in the community to tell us what they think," said Landscape Architecture and Regional Plan- ning Professor Laurie Olin, who founded the Olin Partnership, adding that bicycle transportation is "extremely interesting to a lot of people right now."

Two fatal bicycle accidents on campus this semester highlight- ed the issue among the Universi- ty community. Wharton freshman Michael Yang was killed in October when the bicycle he was riding col- lided with a truck at the intersec- tion of 33rd and Spruce streets. And just a week earlier, 70-year old Benjamin Tencer, who was tak- ing classes at Penn as part of a special program for senior citi- zens, died two days after being hit by a car at the intersection of 34th and Walnut streets.

A steering committee and five in- dividual working committees — composed of students, faculty and staff — were appointed last April to examine issues that affect cam- pus life, including academic pur- pose and environment; student, faculty and administrative life; his- torical preservation; transportation and maintenance.

A second forum, focusing on cam- pus life issues, will be held Decem- ber 13 at 3 p.m. in the same room.

Naming of violent offenders discussed UA from page 1

today, said UA Facilities Committee Chairperson Jonathan Glick, a Whar- ton junior. Accompanying the reso- lution will be a petition with the signatures of 1,121 students sup- porting the construction of the courts collected in the last week.

Last week, UA Chairperson Michael Silver said the petition would require at least 1,000 signatures to be "legitimate," while "1,500 signa- tures would show a strong, strong message."

At last night's meeting, however, Silver seemed pleased with the num- ber of signatures.

"TOth 1,121 signatures and this res- olution, I can't see [the basketball courts] not happening," he said.

Also at last night's meeting, Office of Student Conduct Director Michele Goldfarb spoke with UA members about a proposed policy that would govern Penn's release of the names of students found by the University to have committed a "crime of violence or non-forcible sexual offense."

Goldfarb is a member of a com- mittee comprised of faculty mem-

bers, administrators and students that is currently debating whether to prepare a proposal for a future policy.

Goldfarb said the committee is seeking the advice of students before releasing a proposal because the parental notification policy proposed earlier this semester was criticized for lack of student input.

Many UA members expressed opposition to releasing names of students found by the University's judicial system to have committed offenses, a position with which Goldfarb said she personally agreed.

Several UA members said they feared that releasing names of of- fenders could make victims hesitant to come forward with charges for fear that their identities may be discov- ered by the public.

The UA last night also voted on several by-law changes, unanimous- ly agreeing to require any group plan- ning a campus-wide social event to request funding from the Social Plan- ning and Events Committee and al low SPEC to request additional funds from the UA. Currently, Student Ac-

commitment to Puerto Rico — armed struggle," joining FALN and being arrested and charged with seditious conspiracy.

"We were prisoners of war," Jiminez said, citing international law against colonialism.

Jiminez explained that he rejected the clemency offer at first because it was not extended to all the prisoners. He also objected to its attached con- ditions, which prohibit association with other FALN members and ad- vocating violence. Jiminez said that he eventually accepted the deal un- der pressure from the others affect- ed by it.

But Jiminez made clear it was only the former condition he had a prob- lem with.

"I would never advocate violence at this point in time. Civil disobedience and the creation of a consciousness are key [to Puerto Rican indepen- dence!," Jiminez said. He also

stressed the need to remove what he called "a colonial mindset" from Puerto Rican society. Such a mindset, he said, results in Puerto Ricans putting themselves in debt for "two cars, two TVs, a VCR and cellular [phones], and individual and egoistic life" that has a negative effect on Puerto Rico.

He also addressed the status of Puerto Ricans in American cities, ad- vocating unity and education as means for social betterment.

Jiminez, who now lives in Puerto Rico, is touring American universities to educate students about the issues surrounding Puerto Rican indepen- dence. He was pleased with the rep- resentation he saw at Penn. "It's progress to come to an Ivy League university and see so many Puerto Ricans," Jiminez said.

Inez Ramos, a member of ACELA, called Jiminez's visit "a historic mo- ment to celebrate at Penn.... It's in- credible to see a living testament to the struggle against oppression."

tivities Council-recognized groups can approach the UA directly for event funding after getting permis- sion from SAC.

The UA also unanimously ap- proved a change to require events it co-sponsors to be open to all mem- bers of the University community.

After a contentious debate, the UA did not pass a proposed change that would have limited the UA's funding of charitable events, an is- sue that came up earlier this se- mester when the body partially funded last weekend's Wawa West Philly benefit show.

It also failed to garner the required two-thirds majority to pass a pro- posed by-law change that would have mandated that the UA's banner be displayed at any event receiving UA funding.

Also yesterday, UA member and Engineering junior Theo LeCompte resigned from his position as chair- person of the UA Communications Committee, saying at the meeting that "the job wasn't right for me any- more." He was replaced by Commu- nications Committee Vice Chairperson Dana Hork.

Students meet dean - and his dog, too By Sabi ina Grewal

The Daily ["ennsylvaniin

Besides knowing that he is the dean of the College of Arts and Sci- ences and has an adorable dog, most students probably know little about College of Arts and Sciences Dean Richard Beeman. But a group of 10 students gathered Thursday for a chance to find out a little more about the man behind the dog.

The Dean's Advisory Board or- ganized the luncheon as a jumpstart for next semester's planned "Take your Professor to Lunch" program.

While munching on pizza in Lo- gan Hall, Beeman began his intro- ductions, starting with Chief Justice John Marshmallow, his Bernese mountain dog. The seven-year-old companion, originally raised to be a show dog, looked on with hungry eyes as the students exchanged names, majors and University affiliations.

The four seniors, two juniors, two sophomores and two freshmen mak- ing up the group represented nearly every facet of Penn, from Greeks to members of student-activist associ- ations.

"I thought it would be interest- ing because I don't really know much

about the dean," College junior Jen- nifer Cohn said. "I thought it would be nice to sit down and personalize someone you hear about and read about."

Beeman had similar sentiments about spending time with students. "As a teacher you don't really always get to know about what's going on in young folks' minds."

The dean discussed a variety of topics with students, relating to everything from academics to the so- cial scene at Penn.

The casual talk began with a ques- tion the dean posed to the freshmen, which proved to be just as difficult for the upperclassmen to answer "What the hell are you doing here anyway?"

As the students fumbled to justi- fy their existence at Penn, the general conclusion was that the answer changes every year. Even the dean, with 31 years of experience as a Penn history professor, recalled his college days at the University of California at Berkeley when he was sure he want- ed to major in business.

But, he recalled, "Fall semester sophomore year I remember taking an accounting class and an Ameri- can history class and I so loved it and I so hated accounting that I changed

addressed the majority of the stu- dents in the room who had not yet decided what they wanted to do with their futures, emphasizing the im- portance of an education that "has less to do with the specific content of what you learn, but the process." He added, "One size does not fit all when talking about the needs of col- lege students."

The students said they were pleased with the luncheon. "He was a very interesting person to listen to and very open to helping undergrads in all facets of their life here at Penn," Col- lege sophomore Margaret Grillo said.

"I thought this was a great fo- rum; he was very receptive to us," added College junior Sara Coelho. "I think he's really been thinking about things that are concerning us as stu- dents."

to College of General Studies Direc- tor Richard Hendrix.

Now in its second year, the distance- learning program will offer about 20 courses over the fall, spring and sum- mer terms — including Ideas in Math, Major British Poets and Economics. The program will try to draw in high school students, alumni and non-Uni- versity residents, along with current

Penn students over the summer. "We want a diverse student body,"

Hendrix said. Hendrix added that while the num-

ber of distance-learning courses will increase, he does not expect massive growth, noting that the program should become most popular in the summer when Penn students take up internships and jobs off-campus.

As SAS strives to develop more dis- tance-learning classes, Beeman said

it will work harder to keep an eye on undergraduate needs.

Presently, the College offers Cog- nitive Science — a discipline com- bining biology, computer science, linguistics, mathematics, neuro science, philosophy and psychology But the school does not contribute to the year-old Digital Media Design program, a major that gives students a foundation of knowledge in tech- nology, graphic art and media studies.

"I think that this is something that should happen in the future," Slatko said "All it takes is a couple of people in the performing arts community who want to [raise money for a cause]," Slatko said.

Aulston also addressed the audi- ence during the intermission of the performances.

"This event will help us continue the work of the Robeson legacy for generations to come," Aulston said. "Robeson believed children were the future of our democracy. People com- ing together in an arts event like tonight is what will make peace be- come a reality."

Be fair to Mayer residents Perm's decision to transform the dorm into an undergrad residence imperils continued family housing on campus.

While it is vital that the University re- lieve the current crunch in undergradu- ate student housing, the decision announced last week to turn Mayer Hall into an all-undergrad dormitory ef- fective next year raises several dis- tressing issues.

In February, officials announced that the building, intended for use by stu- dents with families, would be turned over to undergraduates over the course of several years. Many graduate stu- dents moved into the building or re- tained their apartments with the understanding that they could keep them until they earned their degrees.

This move calls into question the Uni- versity's commitment to provide hous- ing for students with families. While officials said that some Mayer Hall res- idents could be relocated to Sansom Place, Mayer is the only on-campus dorm equipped for family-style living.

Housing officials owe it to concerned students to clearly articulate a policy regarding accommodations for stu- dents with families. We would welcome renovations to Sansom Place apart- ments that would make them more suitable for family life.

Also, Penn's decision to speed up the timetable for Mayer's transformation was made without consulting dorm resi- dents, many of whom may be forced out of their homes earlier than anticipated.

The nature of graduate student hous- ing makes this a problem. While under- graduates tend to leave campus when school is not in session and usually do

not retain their rooms from year to year, graduate students treat their apartments more like a permanent home, staying year-round for a dura- tion of several years.

In order to correct the problems cre- ated by this decision, the University should allow current Mayer residents — students who have chosen to make that building their home — to stay in Mayer for the duration of their degree pro- grams. Penn should also provide assis- tance locating housing in Sansom Place or off campus for those who would vol- untarily leave Mayer before next fall.

The University should ensure in the future that residents of on-campus dor- mitories are better informed of decisions being made and have a consultative role in any changes of this magnitude. As Penn embarks on a major overhaul of its undergraduate facilities, this need will only become more pressing.

OPINION

Don't tread on

OSC You have to excuse Michele

(; i ild I arb if she seems a lit- tle agitated these days.

The usually de- mure Office of Student Conduct di- rector has been increasingly frustrated by the growing debate surrounding

the confidential- ity ot cases heard by the OSC.

For those of you unfamiliar with the issues, a little background information might be helpful. Under new legis- lation passed by Congress, the University is now authorized to dis- close the names of students found

^^^^^^^^~ to have commit- ted violent crimes or non-forcible sex- ual offenses.

In other words, the University is now free to make known the details of cases heard by the OSC involving vi- olent crimes or non-forcible sexual offenses and release them to the press and greater public.

In the past few weeks, students have cried for the names of offenders to be released. One editorial in this publication stated that "the mere pos- sibility that a policy of disclosure will increase the safety of the student body is sufficient grounds for the cre- ation of such a policy."

And a columnist on this page de- cried the OSC as a "secretive judi- cial system" and alarmingly likened the OSC to medieval England's infa- mous Star Chamber.

It's the remarks about her office that sting Goldfarb the most.

"The perception is we're prosecu- tors," she says. "I used to be a pros- ecutor — that's not what we do here."

Indeed, it would be best if you got any ideas of the OSC being a kind of scaled-down criminal justice system out of your head. There are no judges, no courtrooms, no lawyers —just stu- dents working with the office's staff members to hammer out resolutions to incidents deserving disciplinary action.

The OSC, located inside the main gate of the Quadrangle, can't find a student guilty of violating local, state or federal laws. All they can do is de termine whether or not a student has violated University policy and then decide — working with the students involved — what to do about it.

Andrew Exum Perilous Orthodoxy

We like Bradley, too To the Editor:

In Friday's paper, Eric Tucker wrote about Penn faculty donations to Bill Bradley (At Penn, support for Bill Bradley runs high," The Dai- ly Pennsylvanian, 12/3/99). The facts reported were quite impressive but it lacked the more impressive infor- mation regarding support for Bill Bradley among the student body.

Bill Bradley for President at Penn

The absolute worst the OSC can do, Goldfarb notes, is tell a student he or she can no longer attend the University.

In fact, most cases don't even reach a disciplinary review board. Instead, students work one-on-one with the staffers at the OSC toward some sort of settlement that gets them back on track academically, which is the OSC's goal in the first place.

"If we allow ourselves to be likened to a kind of miniature crim- inal justice system, then that un- dermines what we're trying to do here," Goldfarb adds.

Goldfarb, who teaches mediation in the Law School, is also quick to stress that every case heard at the OSC is seen as unique. Goldfarb's co- workers don't simply plug cases into an established set of laws or legal codes. The individual context within which the incident took place, Gold- farb says, is key to finding a resolution for the case.

How can the OSC establish a con- text for every case, you ask? Through interaction between the students involved and the OSC, all of which is protected by a strict confi- dentiality agreement.

Goldfarb says, "By in large, the students know what they did and want to cooperate. They are able to then give the context within which the event occurred.

"They can explain themselves." Would those students feel so free to

speak if they weren't protected by the confidentiality agreement? Gold- farb doesn't think so.

When asked if the loss of confi- dentiality would, in effect, lead the OSC to become exactly what its de- tractors label it as — an adversarial court system within the University

Andres Floden/The Daily Pennsylvania

— Goldfarb answered with a re- sounding "yes."

Think about it. If you were called before the OSC, knowing full well that everything that transpired between you and the OSC could very well end up on the front page of The Daily Pennsylvanian the next morning, wouldn't you be more likely to be on the defensive rather than own up to what you did and work toward a mu tually agreeable resolution?

As things stand now, the OSC can resolve the cases it hears in a manner befitting the crime, the situation and all parties involved. If the results of the OSC's cases were made known to the public, Goldfarb frets that the OSC would spend as much time jus- tifying their decisions to the com- munity as they do reaching them.

"I worry that we'll resolve the cas- es on how it's gonna look and not by what's right.

"I like to do what's right and not worry about how's it's gonna play [in the next day's papers!."

Still, Goldfarb admits that it's large- ly up to the members of the Univer- sity community to decide whether they want OSC proceedings released to the general public.

"If the average student says they would feel better if I can't give any as- surances of confidentiality, well... that's a decision students need to think long and hard about."

Such a decision by the campus community would be a shame.

"There are so few places where you can feel safe to be honest. I don't think it does our society any good to lose those places."

currently has nearly 300 student members. Already, these Bradley supporters have participated in community service in South Philly and handed out Bradley informa- tion on campus, and are planning to bring guest speakers to Penn and hold other events. The support and interest shown toward Bradley are staggering. Even more impressive is the number of people involved in the campaign that have never par- ticipated in politics before.

This is happening not just at Penn

but across the country as people are inspired to participate in govern- ment for the first time. In the coming semester, the campus will definitely be seeing this spirit of support for this great leader manifest more and more. True support can not be mea- sured in money, but in people.

Kids growing up too fast in the 'Buffy* era Seems like only yesterday that

chase after boys we had crushes on during a game of lunchtime tag. And it really wasn't that long ago when we college students were a genera-

of the vitality and innocence that comes with childhood.

Though we are not far removed from that pe- riod of time, we are already seeing a huge difference be- tween the kids of today and the kids of 10 years ago.

Children today are growing in- creasingly adult-like before their time. Nine-year-old girls wear more make-up than your average sorority sister and dress more provoca- tively than the 21-year-old pa- trons of local nightclubs. Boys are more aggressive in pur- suing their female classmates and instances of sexual ha- rassment, and even sexual vi- olence, in schools are alarmingly high.

It is important to realize that this newfound adulthood does not equal maturity. Growing up has always involved its fair share of tri- als and tribulations, but today's growing pains arrive earlier and are thus much more severe.

In their efforts to exhibit their so- called maturity, kids are more sus- ceptible to the pressures of sex and drugs at a younger age. Parents and teachers are often unsuspecting and unprepared because they do not ex- pect to confront these problems when kids are that young. And the difficulties only multiply over the next years of a dwindling childhood.

What is different today that leads to such a wide variance between the generations of children? We were as

devoted to the Teenage Mutant Nin- ja Turtles as today's kids worship Pokemon and Beanie Babies. Kids study the same grammar points and take identical spelling tests year after year. But this is where the similarities end on several levels.

First, there may be a purely bio- logical reason for rapid maturity. Re-

cent studies dicate that children are

reaching pu- berty at

Jg^ \\ earlier /■■'•! ages

Tnorrns Schmld The Daily Pennsylvanian

ing that the process of moving from childhood to adulthood begins at younger ages and occurs over a shorter amount of time. When kids physically mature faster, it is no won- der that their peers often feel pres- sure to exhibit traits of maturation as well.

Even so, the more disturbing trend is how much certain elements

of society exhibit, cater to and even facilitate this early maturation. Vis- it the local mecca of teenybopper- dom (the mall, of course) and you'll find obvious differences in the en- vironment from when we used to roam the shopping mall. Clothing lines for young girls are no longer decorated with bows and plastic daisies, but instead incorporate adult fashion trends that are meant to be a little more daring and a lit- tle sexier. Spaghetti straps, low-cut tops, higher hemlines and platform shoes are found all too often in chil- dren's sizes.

Perhaps the most apparent dis- plays are found within the entertain- ment industry. I was shocked when I took my 11-year-old brother to see films rated G and PG, only to be con- fronted by violence and sexual innu-

endo — even from family-friendly studios like Disney. Must-see

television for kids dur- ing the 8 to 10 p.m. time slot includes hy- persexed shows like Dawson's Creek

*> and Friends, and Buffy episodes fo- cused on bloody vi- olence. When such mature themes are prominently dis- played and vaulted

in media that are made available to kids, it is no wonder they become af-

fected by these pressures. When my brother Andrew

received his first love letter from a classmate last year, I realized that children will continue to pine after first

loves and play hopscotch or Pop Warner football for years to

come. But while many elements of growing up will remain constant, we should take notice of the things that take away some of the innocence and naivete of those precious years.

AT&T to allow Internet access to its cable lines

WASHINGTON — AT&T intends to give competing Internet providers access to its high-speed cable lines. The move could quell fears about the telecommunications giant gaining too much control over what informa- tion reaches consumers' homes.

In a letter the company planned to send federal regulators today, AT&T pledges eventually to give its cus- tomers a choice of Internet providers over AT&T's cable connections, ac- cording to sources close to the dis- cussions.

Chechen rebels make shift to guerilla tactics

NAZRAN, Russia — As Russia has tightened its circle around Grozny and continued to pummel the Chechen capital with air and artillery attacks, Chechen rebels have turned increasingly to guerrilla tactics, the Russian military said yesterday.

It's a dangerous shift for Russia, which had been hoping to avoid a close-fought war for fear of high ca- sualties among its soldiers.

West Point, Yale lead list of Rhode scholarships

WASHINGTON — Two paratroop- ers from the U.S. Military Academy, AIDS researchers from William and Mary in Virginia and Kentucky's Cen- tre College and the University of South Carolina's marathon-running homecoming queen were among 32 American students named yesterday as Rhodes scholars for 2000.

West ftrint and Yale, with three se- lections each, led 26 colleges and uni- versities with students chosen to receive Rhodes scholarships for two or three years' study at Oxford University in England.

Six GOP candiates gear up for another debate

WASHINGTON — GOP presiden- tial candidate Steve Fbrbes said yes- terday he has been clear in letting voters know what he stands for, unlike front-runner George W Bush, and hopes for "a real interchange" among the six candidates in today's debate so people can judge for themselves.

Scheduled to join Fbrbes and Bush in Phoenix are Gary Bauer, Sen. Or- rin Hatch of Utah and Alan Heyes.

NASA receives no signal from Mars probe The Polar Lander was scheduled to touch down on Friday and officials are considering failure scenarios.

PASADENA, Calif. — NASA an- tennas listened in vain yesterday for a signal from the Mars Polar Lan- der and tense mission officials said after three days of silence, time was running out in the effort to contact the craft.

"Clearly the team is getting more frustrated, certainly, and more tense

about all of this," said operations manger Richard Cook.

The $165 million lander was sup- posed to have signaled immediately after Friday afternoon's touchdown about 500 miles from the Martian south pole.

Failure of the Mars Polar Lander would be a double blow to NASA's

Jet Propulsion Laboratory, still smarting from the September loss of its sibling spacecraft, the Mars Climate Orbiter.

Mission managers worked on elim- inating simple failure scenarios one by one. But they conceded if contact has not been established before mid-week, it was increasingly unlikely to have success with what would then involve more complex failures scenarios.

"When you start stacking — if this thing has to fail and then this thing

has to fail and then this thing has to fail to get into this circumstance — then you're definitely in extra time," Cook said. "We're not there yet I think we will be, come Tuesday morning."

Yesterday's first communications window opened at 10:50 a.m. PST and closed 10 minutes later without any transmission from the surface of the Red Planet.

The lander, if working properly, was supposed to have switched radios to relay a signal through NASA's orbit-

ing Mars Global Surveyor. But the mapping spacecraft only sent its own data and none from the lander.

Yesterday's only other communi- cations opportunity, using the original radio, was scheduled for 9:40 p.m. PST to 11:55 p.m. PST.

Lack of any signals since shortly before Friday's scheduled landing left mission officials with hope only that the little craft survived the touch- down and, on its own, was taking steps to establish contact.

Six firefighters killed in warehouse fire

Reuters

A unidentified man. left, cries as he stands holding a bible next to a makeshift memorial of flowers and wreaths placed on a firetruck by relatives and friends of the six firefighters killed in an abandoned warehouse in Worcester, MA.

The search for bodies has continued since the fire blazed Friday night.

WORCESTER, Mass. — Fire- fighters stood outside the smolder- ing ruins of an abandoned warehouse yesterday, holding their helmets over their hearts as the body of one of six firefighters was removed from the rubble.

Some saluted, others kneeled in prayer as the remains of Timothy Jackson were carried down a ladder.

In churches around the city, Jack- son and his colleagues were re- membered for their bravery. Two gave their lives searching for home- less people in the burning ware- house Friday night. The others died trying to find the men after they ra- dioed in: "Mayday, Mayday, we're running out of air."

At the warehouse yesterday, cranes continued to clear debris and

dogs sniffed for bodies in what Dis- trict Fire Chief Walter Giard de- scribed as a painstaking process.

"The building has virtually col- lapsed on the inside," Giard said. "Floors are on top of one another. There are burnt timbers and twisted metal all over the place. It is a mess."

It was believed to be the nation's worst loss of life involving firefighters since 1994, when 14 firefighters per- ished in a forest fire in Colorado.

"Lying at the base of their work is a dedication that all life is precious," the Rev. Rocco Piccolomini said in a sermon yesterday at Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

Witnesses had told firefighters Fri- day night that homeless people sometimes lived in the old cold stor- age warehouse. But officials yester- day said there didn't appear to have been any squatters inside when fire- fighters entered the burning building. State Fire Marshal Stephen Coan said all the homeless known to live in the area had been located.

Security org. releases scathing report on violence in Kosovo PRISTINA Yugoslavia — Revenge-

motivated violence has accelerated since NATO-led peacekeepers arrived in Kosovo as ethnic Albanians at- tempt to retaliate for a decade of op- pression, an international report said.

Such retribution has escalated in the last six months, the vast majori- ty by ethnic Albanians seeking re- venge against Serbs and other minorities, said a report by the Or- ganization for Security and Cooper-

ation in Europe. One of the worst examples oc-

curred in the U.S.-controlled sector of Gnjilane, which had been largely un- touched by the war, the report said. When the OSCE returned to Gnjilane in June only one house had been de- stroyed, but by October, 280 homes had been burned or destroyed.

"The descent into violence has been swift and widespread," the re- port said, referring to postwar Gnji-

lane. "It has led to major flows of Kosovo Serbs, either across the in- ternal boundary to southern Serbia or to enclaves within the province."

The Gypsy, or Roma, population has left en masse, and there were daily reports this summer of killings, house burnings, missing persons and abductions, the report said.

According to the OSCE, the for- mer Kosovo Liberation Army has sometimes organized the violence in

Kosovo — a claim former KLA lead- ers have consistently rejected, saying the organization's name is being ex- ploited by criminals.

The ethnic Albanian KLA fought Yugoslav and Serb security forces in a bloody conflict last year that claimed an estimated 10,000 lives and led to NATO's 78-day bombing campaign.

The OSCE's two-tome report also details Yugoslav President Slobo-

dan Milosevic's crackdown against ethnic Albanian militants and events during the airstrikes, graph- ically recording rapes, torture, sum- mary executions, looting and destruction.

In a preface to the report, Bernard Kouchner, the top U.N. administra- tor in Kosovo, drew a distinction be- tween the ethnic Albanian acts of revenge and the brutal Milosevic crackdown.

Sports Briefs M. Soccer's Brown honored by Soccer 7

Penn senior co -captain Reggie Brown, a 1999 All-Ivy honorable mention selection, was named to the 1999 Philadelphia Soccer 7 All-Star team last Friday.

The midfielder/forward from EUicott City, Md., recorded two goals and one assist this past sea- son, while leading the Quakers to a 2-0 record in Soccer 7 play.

Throughout his time at Penn, Brown distinguished himself as a gutsy, quick and skillful mid- fielder who was a perennial threat to jump on the attack.

The Soccer 7 is a loose con- figuration of area programs that includes Penn, Drexel, Temple, La Salle, Villanova, St. Joseph's and Philadelphia University.

Penn garnered its perfect 1999 Soccer 7 record with wins over Temple (2-1) and Philadelphia University (1-0).

West and Caramanico shine at tournament W. BASKETBALL from page 14

Penn took its biggest lead, 75-63, with 6:31 left when West drove in for a layup right after a rare Caramanico three- pointer. Penn then sealed the win with a 6-2 spurt in the final three minutes.

Despite the win, allowing Lafayette to stay in the game stung the Quakers.

"From the game we realized we needed to get better on defense," Caramanico said.

Penn turned this realization into reality the next day against Loyola in the championship game.

The Quakers executed a high-in- tensity defense that allowed them to get the lead early, then build on it throughout the game.

"We kept pressing and pressing and pressing until we had a 23 point lead Iwith 4:08 leftl," Greenberg said. "The Loyola coach told me that they never even thought they could win."

The defensive effort also led to a high offensive output for the Quakers, whose 54 points at halftime was the highest first-half point total in team history.

W. Swimming wins in first home meet

By Ryan Kelly Ttw Dally Ptmnsylvanlan

Penn 182 G'town 109

Two weeks, two wins and too much for George- town.

The Penn women's swimming team easily handled the Hoyas Sat- urday afternoon at Sheerr Pool, 182-109, in front of a large contin- gent of Quakers supporters.

With the win, Penn improved to 2-1 on the young season (1-1 Ivy) and looks forward to hosting Ivy foe Columbia this Friday.

The Quakers' home opener fea- tured a multitude of standout per- formances, perhaps the most outstanding of which was junior Cathy Holland's.

Penn's captain finished first in both the 1000-yard freestyle and 200 breaststroke with times of 10:38.4 and 2:25.9, respectively. She set a per- sonal record in the latter event while missing sophomore teammate April Fletcher's school record by approxi- mately .6 seconds.

"It was a great swim considering it was the first time she's swum the event for real in two years," Penn coach Mike Schnur said.

"That was probably the highlight swim [of the meet]," Fletcher said.

Other outstanding performances on the day included sophomore Devin McGlynn's wins in the 100 and 200 freestyle and freshman Katie Pa trizzi's first-place finish in the 200 fly with a time of 2:07.4.

"For her to go 2:07 unrested is a very, very good swim," Schnur said. "It's a heck of a lot faster than she

ever went in high school." Patrizzi — who recently quali-

fied for the Junior Nationals — was joined by a number of other suc- cessful freshmen. Margaret Jones finished first in the 200 individual medley; Lauren Dawe won the 100 backstroke; and Jessica Anders was tops in the 50 freestyle.

In addition, the freshmen are con- tributing to the success Penn has had in relay swimming this year. Saturday was no different, as Pa- trizzi and Anders joined McGlynn and sophomore Adriana Pentz on the first-place 200 medley relay team. The team that won the 200 free relay was also made up of two sophomores and two freshmen.

"The freshmen are all swimming awesome, they're training realty hard. They're really doing well," Fletcher said. "It's nice to have a young team."

The Hoyas, who were only mini- mally rested last week in practice, seemed to be hindered all day by a lack of swimming depth. The third- fastest Georgetown swimmer was routed in many events.

"They had sue or seven good, solid women who definitely could swim for us," Schnur said. "But their backup girls are nowhere near the level ours are, so their girls who were their number one swimmer in each event were pretty strong, but their num- ber two and number threes maybe weren't as strong as ours."

That, combined with the fact that Penn consistently beat Georgetown's top swimmers by taking first place in every swimming event, allowed the Quakers to soundly trounce the Hoyas.

Penn's win is impressive con-

Jacques-Jean Tldou/The Daily Pennsylvanian The Penn women's swimming team is 2-1 after defeating Georgetown on Saturday. Junior captain Cathy Holland led the charge for the Quakers with first-place swims in the 1000-yard freestyle and the 200 breaststroke.

sidering that its swimmers prac- ticed hard last week. This was not the case earlier in the season, since the Quakers rested the week before the meet with Cornell and Princeton.

"We had a lot of really good swims considering that a lot of people were really tired from a hard week of prac- tice," Fletcher said.

In fact, the only spheres in which the Hoyas finished in the top spot were the one-meter and three-meter

diving contests, where they accumu- lated 26 points to Penn's six.

"They're a good group of kids. They're strong, they're pretty deep, and hopefully they'll be more com- petitive in the Ivy League," George- town coach Bethany Bower said of the Quakers. "We knew we were out- manned going in."

The Quakers themselves might be outmanned come Friday, when Columbia, led by Christina Teusch- er — possibly the nation's best col-

M. Hoops ruled the paint but could not get shots to fall M. BASKETBALL from page 14

affected the entire Penn squad against the Nittany Lions, but it was especially tough on the Penn back- court. Senior co-captains Jordan and Matt Langel were a combined 3-for- 24 from the field — 0-for-10 from downtown.

Health concerns may have con- tributed to the poor play of the guards. Langel is still recovering from an injury to his right foot, while Jordan played with the flu.

The Quakers did a good job mak- ing up for the subpar outside shoot- ing with their inside size advantage.

The Nittany Lions most often used a lineup that included no one over 6'7", while Penn used five players who stand at least that tall. The Quakrvs hauled in 43 boards and grabbed an impressive 21 offensive rebounds.

Leading Penn down low was center Geoff Owens, who had five offensive boards and scored most of his 14 points in the paint.

Penn State was in control of the game early, going on a 15-6 run over the game's opening 6:30.

The Quakers took their first lead with 5:03 remaining in the first half when Klatsky converted on both shots of a one and one caused by a struggling Joe Crispin's second foul.

Crispin amassed more turnovers (four) than points (three) in the first half. The Pitman, N.J., native was somewhat affected by the pressure of playing so close to home.

"I was just a little too emotional," he said.

Crispin made a complete turn- around in the second half. The de- ceptively quick Nittany Lions'junior scoredl7 in the final 20 minutes to fuel Penn State's transition offense.

Jacques-Jean TuJou/The Dally Pennsylvanian Freshman forward Ugonna Onyekwe (above), along with frontcourt classmate Koko Archibong, got the starting nod in each of his first two Palestra contests.

"In the transition we got outscored pretty badly," Dunphy said.

Typical of the Nittany Lions' tran- sition game was a sequence early in the second half. A turnover by Penn's

Frank Brown led to a Jon Crispin to Gyasi Cline-Heard alley-oop layup that tied the game at 34.

That play ignited a 12-6 Penn State run that put the Nittany Lions up for

good. Penn State held at least a two- point advantage for the final 9:09.

For the Quakers, trailing was a big change from Friday night. Penn led for all but 4:08 in the win over Army and never saw its lead shrink to less than 13 in the second half.

The Cadets held close early by making nine of their first 14 shots. But Army's outside shooting soon wentAWOL.

"I think it's hard to sustain that outstanding shooting," Dunphy said. "I think our defense toughened up. From that point on, I thought we guarded very well."

Army shot only 32 percent from the field in the last 28 minutes and the Quakers ended the first half on a 22- 3 run.

Integral to Penn's success on Fri- day was the play of its freshmen. Dunphy used his first-year players liberally. Onyekwe and Koko Archi- bong started the game, and, at one point in the first half, a lineup of Jor- dan and four freshmen outscored the Cadets 6-3 in the two minutes they were together.

Archibong ignited the crowd on Friday. The freshman forward thrilled the Palestra faithful in the second half with a one-handed tom- ahawk jam on a breakaway.

Archibong followed that up a few minutes later with an emphatic swat of an Army shot that triggered another deafening ovation.

The Quakers dominated the in- side against Army just as they did against the Nittany Lions, grabbing 15 offensive rebounds and outscor- ing the undersized Cadets 34-14 in the paint.

As demonstrated by Penn's one- up-one-down weekend, however, a team needs to have more than inside dominance to truly excel.

Archibong and Onyekwe impressive in Palestra debut FRESHMEN from page 14

one-upped his classmate with 10 points, five boards, two steals and a crowd-stirring rejection of a Cadet's almost-wide-open layup.

The highlight of the evening was turned in by Archibong just two min- utes into the second half, when the lanky 6'7" swingman stole a Jonte Harrell pass at midcourt and ran in for a thunderous one-handed dunk.

The crowd loved it, and judging from the beaming smile on his face after the jam, it was clear that Archi- bong did as well.

"That's some pretty fun stuff," Archibong said when asked about his dunk and block. "I just wanted to go out and play my hardest and make the best of the situation I was in.

"I didn't know if I was going to start today or not, but I just was trying to go out and play hard whether I'm coming off the bench or starting the game. And when the start came, I was just ready to play."

In Saturday's hard-to-swallow loss to the Nittany Lions, both Archibong and Onyekwe tallied eight points — second only to senior center Geoff Owens' 14 points for the most among Penn players.

Onyekwe added seven rebounds, three steals and two authoritative blocks. Once again it was a freshman forward who led the Quakers in play- ing time, as Archibong logged 33 fren- zied minutes. *

"This could be our lineup," Penn coach Fran Dunphy said. "I get asked that question all the time, who's go- ing to start. And I can't really tell you that it matters very much to me. Who plays well is the critical piece, and if you play well, then you're going to start and you're going to be in the game a lot."

If Archibong and Onyekwe contin- ue to play the way they did this week- end, there is little doubt they will start and no doubt they will get significant minutes night in and night out.

Both nights, Onyekwe scored the Quakers first basket, and Archibong sank the second. These two young- sters know plenty about starting fast.

Beyond that, it was clear the duo gave opposing coaches headaches in the matchup department.

On some occasions, Archibong and Onyekwe were in the game as power forward and center, respectively. On others, the pair were out on the perimeter or leading the Quakers charge up the floor on the fast break.

Dunphy now has the luxury of depth in the frontcourt — something he has not had in years past.

"They're very good basketball play- ers, and we expect a lot out of them," Dunphy said after the Army win. "They got an opportunity to start tonight and I thought they came through and played well."

Aside from two 14-point efforts by Owens and two nights of efficient ball- handling %-j freshman David Klatsky,

the only consistent Penn players were Onyekwe and Archibong.

Defensively, the pair needs a bit more seasoning, as the starting for- wards for Army and Penn State were able to combine for 55 points. But on the boards and in the paint, the pres- ence of the duo was clearly felt.

And, as a result of their accom- plished play on the court, the fresh-

men became instant crowd favorites. Current Penn stars Michael Jor-

dan, Matt Langel and Owens did not start in their first Palestra games, but this feldgling frontcourt duo did.

Given the uncharacteristic oppor- tunity Dunphy has given Onyekwe and Archibong, these two Quakers seem to be securely on the fast track to Penn success.

legiate swimmer and an Olympic gold medalist — invades Philadel- phia Friday evening.

Schnur intends to give his team another week of intense practice, and although he acknowledges that the Quakers have very little chance of taming the Lions next week, he is happy with what he is seeing.

"We swam better than I thought we would," Schnur said. "They're gaining confidence every week. And they're swimming better and better."

M. Swimming awaits Lions after beating Georgetown M. SWIMMING from page 14

Penn will not be able to dispatch Columbia, its next opponent, with nearly as much ease as it did George- town.

The Red and Blue will face off with Columbia on Saturday at Sheerr Pool — the Quakers lost to the Lions last year in New York, 124-117.

"I think at this point in time there is not much more that can be done in the water because we've trained very well up to this point," Penn co-captain Amir Rozwadowski said. "I think in order to beat Columbia all the team has to do is focus mentally, and I think the meet is ours to take."

In light of Penn's loss to Columbia last year, the Quakers will need to do something different next Satur- day if they are to extract a win from the Lions.

"From my own experience on the team, we are definitely a much stronger team I this year)," Rozwad- owski said. "It's just a change in the program, it's a different attitude with a new coach. The younger swimmers are really stepping up and filling the roles that are required of them."

Penn will enjoy a home-pool ad- vantage against Columbia, which has proven helpful to the Quakers' per- formance in the past.

Penn was able to vanquish the Li- ons 133-108 when the two teams swam a dual meet at Sheerr Pool two years ago.

Yankees NEW YORK — David Cone will

return to the New York Yankees next season, after agreeing to a one-year deal for approximately $12 million with the World Series champions, a source close to the negotiations told The Associated Press yesterday.

Cone, who was seeking a two- year contract, agreed to the deal — pending a physical — before a deadline tomorrow. The Yankees had no comment.

An official announcement, how- ever, should come today once the Yankees receive results of Cone's blood tests.

8PORT8WIRE Associated Press Monday, December 6,1999 Page 13

STANDINGS AND RESULTS

Cone, who pitched a perfect game against Montreal on July 18, earned $9.5 million last year. He was 12-9 with a 3.44 ERA, the sec- ond-best in the American League.

A clause in Cone's expired con- tract gave the 36-year-old right-han- der the right to prohibit the team from offering him salary arbitra- tion, according to baseball sources.

If Cone had exercised that right and didn't sign with the Yankees by tomorrow, New York would have been unable to re-sign him before May 1.

Cone said last week that other teams have contacted his agent,

but that he wanted to deal with the Yankees first. The New York Mets, Cleveland and Baltimore were among the teams thought to be interested, but it is unclear if any of them were willing to offer two years.

Cone had said his preference was to finish his career with the Yankees. He has pitched for New York for the last 4 1/2 seasons.

"I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for two years considering the type of run I've had with the Yan- kees," Cone said last Wednesday. "To me, it's not trying to maximize the dollar value of the contract."

FSU, Virginia Tech to meet for title No mystery, no intrigue, just this

simple fact: No. 1 Florida State will play No. 2 Virginia Tech for the na- tional championship in the Sugar Bowl on January 4.

In the second season of the Bowl Championship Series, the system of rating teams using polls, computers, strength of schedule and losses worked perfectly.

As expected, the Seminoles (11- 0) and Hokies (11-0) finished first and second in the final BCS stand- ings released yesterday, matching their finish in the Associated Press media poll's final regular-season rankings.

Rams top Panthers to clinch NFC West

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Dick Ver- meil doled out bear hugs by the dozens. Georgia Frontiere wrote a special poem. Kurt Warner tried on his commemorative T-shirt and found it to be a perfect fit.

The St. Louis Rams capped their unlikely rise from NFC West door- mats to division champions with a 34- 21 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

"I came here thinking we could get it done," said an emotional Ver- meil, hired as Rams coach in 1997 after a 14-year coaching hiatus.

The USA Today/ESPN coaches' poll also had the teams ranked 1-2, as did seven of the eight computers used by the BCS.

"They've been there so many times and we're kind of the new kid on the block," Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer said. "Hope- fully, you'll get to like us. This is a good group, a hard-working group. We've met every challenge this year but we've not had a challenge like Florida State."

Florida State, national champions in 1993, will be playing in its third na- tional title game in the past four years.

Coach Bobby Bowden said he's

GAME RECAPS

Frontiere, the team owner who took a chance on Vermeil, went to the lock- er room after the game to give him a poem she wrote especially for the oc- casion.

Colts 37, Dolphins 34 MIAMI — Dan Marino proved he

is not washed up, while Peyton Man- ning proved once again he is the NFLs best young quarterback.

Marino, facing an uncertain future following a neck injury and a horrible game against Dallas on Thanksgiv- ing, threw three touchdown passes and rallied Miami from a 14-point, second-half deficit against Indi- anapolis on Sunday.

But Manning hit Marvin Harri- son with completions of 16 and 18

just happy for another shot, but "I'd just as soon be No. 2 going in. There's a little more incentive. But the idea is to get there and whoever wins the game is going to be No. 1."

Even No. 3 Nebraska (11-1), which dominated Texas 22-6 on Saturday to win the Big 12 title, conceded the Florida State-Vir- ginia Tech matchup was the right one.

The Cornhuskers, who lost their title chance two weeks ago with a shaky overtime win over Col- orado, will play No. 6 Tennessee (9-2) in the Fiesta Bowl on Janu- ary 2.

yards in the final 30 seconds to set up Mike Vanderjagt's 53-yard field goal as time ran out, which gave the Colts a 37-34 victory and the inside track for the AFC East title.

Giants 41, Jets 28 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. —

Jim Fassel decided to step back and assess just what he has. What he had Sunday was an offensive jug- gernaut.

The New York Giants' belea- guered coach let quarterbacks coach Sean Payton call the plays against the New York Jets. Fassel has been considered an offensive mastermind, but his team's attack sputtered all year until it tore apart the Jets 41-28.

W. Squash dominates Yale, Brown in shutouts The top-ranked and undefeated Quakers continued their roll this weekend at the Ringe Courts.

By Rick Lapidos The Daily Pennsylvania!!

The dominating perfor- mance of the Penn women's squash team this weekend on its home court was a sight to be seen.

The Quakers beat Yale, 9-0, on Saturday, with eight of their

players winning 3-0, and Penn prevailed 9-0 against Brown on Sunday, with all nine Quakers shutting out their opponents.

Over 100 fans were out to support both the men's and women's squash teams on Saturday. In addition to the friends and families of the players, many in- fluential squash alumni came out this weekend.

In fact, Hunter Lott, a big contributor to both Penn and its squash program — and the man for whom Penn's tennis courts are named — had some inspirational words before Saturday's slaughtering of Yale.

"If you have your opponent in the trash can," Lott said, "you don't open the lid to look inside."

These words were enough to get the Quakers all riled up. Penn senior co-captain Katie Patrick was particularly enlivened by Lott's talk.

"He was right. Even though we were confi- dent, we couldn't get too cocky and let our guard down," Patrick said. "We put the lid on the can, and locked it in."

The Quakers who competed on Saturday against Yale were Patrick, freshman Runa Reta, Rina Borromeo, Helen Bamber, Megan Fuller, Paige Koilock, Chrissy Eynon, Patti Lin, and Eliza Jacobs.

"I played pretty well today," Reta said."I was pretty pumped. I never played her before, so I wantei to come out hard and not to underesti- mate her."

Just like the rest of her team, Reta acted on Lott's words of encouragement. Only Eynon dropped a game for the Quakers; everyone else shut out their opponents.

On Sunday, the squad kept that positive vibe flowing as it disposed of Brown, improving their record to 4-0 overall, 3-0 in the Ivy League.

One of the more interesting matches of the day — even if the interest solely stemmed from familial intrigue — was the one played at the top spot.

Patrick squared off against Brown's Leslie Mann. Mann is the younger sister of Lauren Mann who played number eight for the Quakers on Sunday.

In attendance on Sunday were Lauren and Leslie's parents, who approached Patrick before

The buzzer beats M. Hoops' bid for perfect weekend The Quakers beat Army, but Penn State spoiled their first homestand.

By Jason Bodnar The Daily i¥nnaylvanian

Penn St. 59

Jacquea-Jun TWou/The Dally Pennsylvanian

Penn center Geoff Owens, shown here sending a shot over the outstretched hand of Penn State's B.J. Vosskuil. had a team-high 14 points and five blocked shots against the Nittany Lions.

Analysis

Bitter irony cut through the may- hem in the Palestra almost as sharply as the final buzzer on Saturday.

After 40 minutes of futility for the Penn men's basket- ball team behind the three-point line, Quakers forward Ugonna Onyekwe finally connected on a shot from downtown.

But the game-tying shot did not leave the freshman's hands until af- ter the buzzer had sounded. The game was over, and Penn State's 59-56 vic- tory was sealed, turning a positive weekend for Penn (1-2)— which beat Army (2-3) 71-56 on Friday night — into a disappointment.

Onyekwe's opportunity to send the game into overtime came because Penn State guard Joe Crispin failed to put the game away at the charity stripe.

The foul with 9.3 seconds to go was Penn guard Michael Jordan's fifth, so prior to Crispin's free-throw attempts, Penn coach Fran Dunphy designed a

play that involved getting the ball in the hands of freshman floor general David Klatsky.

Crispin missed his second foul shot and Onyekwe grabbed the rebound. But he hesitated in getting the ball to Klatsky, eating up precious seconds on the clock.

"They did a good job of not letting David catch the ball after the foul shot," Dunphy said. "I thought that was a key for not allowing us to get a three off in time."

After finally getting the ball, Klatsky dribbled to the top of the key and fed the ball to Onyekwe on the right side of the court for a three-point attempt. It was clear, however, that Onyekwe didn't get the shot off until after the buzzer sounded.

"I thought I saw the light go on be- fore I saw Ugonna shoot the ball," Dunphy said

In what could have been redemp- tion for Penn's long-distance strug- gles on the night, Onyekwe's shot instead drew more attention to Penn's poor shooting. The Quakers connected on just 2-of-20 shots from downtown.

Penn's dreadful shooting was at its worst early in the second half, as Jor- dan and Onyekwe both launched air ball three-point attempts within thirty seconds of each other.

Poor shooting was a malady that

Frosh forwards star for M. Hoops Ugonna Onyekwe and Koko Archibong impressed the Palestra crowds this weekend

By Andrew McLaughlin Tne Daily Pennsylvanian

It almost would have been too much like the plot of a fairy tale if Ugonna Onyekwe's three-pointer had beaten the buzzer and the Penn men's basketball team had taken Penn State into overtime on Saturday.

The story would have gone something like this: Quakers freshmen forwards Onyekwe and Koko Archibong receive the

first starting nods of their collegiate ca- reers in their very first home game. The duo proceeds to electrify the Palestra crowd for two consecutive nights, demonstrating offensive moves and defensive prowess that leads the Quakers to two consecutive non- league wins.

Alas, this fairy-tale plot line was too much to ask for, as Penn defeated Army, 71-56, but fell to Penn State, 59-56. But this was no fault of Onyekwe and Archibong, who were the highlights of this past weekend's games.

"It's hard to understand that those two guys are freshmen," Army coach Pat Har- ris said. "Those guys are going to do noth- ing but get better — I'm glad we're playing them now and not at the end of the season

when they're going to feel very comfort- able."

And Harris should know — he had a front-row seat from which to watch Onyek- we's and Archibong's show.

"I wish I had the ability to grab some of those ballplayers from other countries," Har- ris said in a reference to Onyekwe, who is from Nigeria.

Due to its restrictive admissions policy, Army is unable to recruit foreign athletes.

Against the Black Knights, Onyekwe had a team-high sue rebounds to go with nine points and a block. The Penn freshman played a team-high 32 minutes. Archibong

Caramanico carries W. Hoops to two big wins Junior forward Diana Caramanico matched the Penn single-game record with 41 points against Lafayette.

By Kyle Bahr The Daily l^nnsylvanian

Penn 83 Lafayette 73

David Graft/The Daily Pennsylvanian

Diana Caramanico led the Penn women's basketball team to the Air Force Classic title with 77 points in two games.

Diana Caramanico has as much humility off the court as she does scoring ability on the hardwood.

However, no matter how much the Penn women's basketball tri-

captain tries to de-emphasize her many accomplishments and give tribute to her teammates, her stats keep saying the same thing — Caramanico is the real deal.

And the Penn star proved this fact yet again as she was named MVP of the 1999 Air

Force Classic while leading the Quakers (3- 2) to a first-place finish in the tournament in Colorado Springs, Colo., over the weekend.

After a tough, 83-73 win over Lafayette in the first round Friday, the Quakers rolled over Loyola (111.), 91-78, in the championship game Saturday for their first-ever tournament title.

Much of the driving force behind the Quak- ers' success in Colorado was Caramanico, who was honored for her combination of 77 points and 27 rebounds in the two games.

She tied the Penn single-game points record by racking up a career-high 41 against Lafayette in the first round, then followed with a game-high 36 points in the

final against the Ramblers. The Quakers forward credits her num-

bers and the award, though, to her team- mates, who she said did all the hard work.

"My points came from just shooting layups," she said. "The points are not due to me, but to my teammates who passed to me and who set the screens so I could get open. It's not hard to make layups, but it is hard to make good passes or do the things that lead to the points."

Joining Caramanico in the tournament awards circle was Penn guard Mandy West, who totaled 43 points in the two games and was named to the Air Force Classic All-Tournament team.

Despite the win Friday, the Quakers as a whole did not do as well as expected against a winless Lafayette (0-7) squad.

Part of the problem for Penn was that the Quakers put too much of an emphasis

on their offense. This left their defensive play loose enough to allow the Leopards to stay within striking distance throughout much of the game.

"We just allowed a team who isn't very strong offensively to score a lot of points," Greenberg said. "It's good to score a lot of points, but we also need to worry about stopping the other team."

Lafayette even traded the lead with Penn midway through the first half and forced a 39-39 tie at halftime.

West, who ended with a season-high 23 points, nailed a three-pointer 30 seconds into the second half to break the tie.

Penn allowed Lafayette to equalize two minutes later but, after the 6-1 Leopards' run to tie the game at 45, the Quakers took over for good.

M. Swimming handles Georgetown with ease Penn cruised to a 60-point victory over the Hoyas in a tune-up for their upcoming meet with Columbia.

By Jon Rosen The Daily Pennsylvanian

town 112

The Hoyas, dogs that they are, were yelping in pain.

The Penn men's swimming team easily swam past Georgetown on Saturday to take a 172-112 win at Sheerr Pool.

The Quakers took first place in 10 out of the meet's 16 events, and took second place in each of the other six events.

"The men^swam pretty well. It was a

nice opportunity to see some guys in events they don't always swim," Penn coach Mike Schnur said. "I think we had some very good results from some sec- ondary events. I liked the way they com- peted and we learned some things that may be useful down the road."

Against Georgetown, Penn's swim- mers did not compete in their usual events. This strategy gave the Quakers a chance to see how they would fare in different types of races.

Another point of switching the line- up ardund was to find any hidden tal-

ents the swimmers might possess and to score good times in relays that they will not compete in again until the Eastern Intercollegiate Swimming League Championships in March. It is important for the Quakers to post good times in these races now so that Penn will be seeded highly at the EISL Championships.

"I think we definitely found potential in some untapped events. Alan (Lamb] had a very good 200IM," Schnur said. "Nate Pinney had a very good 200 fly; he went 1:58 without any preparation at all which was very good. Two of the guys had some nice relays — I think our relays did very well this weekend and gave us some very solid seed tinfcs for the end of the year.

Kevin Pope had a very nice 50 backstroke leading off that relay."

Although the Quakers did away with the Hoyas with relative ease, there were some very close races. Senior Jon Maslow won the 100-yard butterfly by a mere .06 seconds, while freshman Nate Pinney won the 200 free by .24 seconds. There were also some barnburners, with freshman Spencer Driscoll winning the 500 free by 3.45 seconds.

Penn suffered in diving, losing both the one-meter and three-meter events, with sophomore Matt Cornell out of com- mission as he continues to recover from a broken wrist.

In a helpful tune-up for its upcoming showdown with Ivy rival Columbia, the Penn nro's swimming team decimated visiting Georgetown.
