Four ASU students
experience Balkan
conflict first hand
B y C arrie S e v erso n
S t a t e P ress

While most ASU students arc conti­
nents away from the bombing in the
Balkan region, Steve Gillen is experi­
encing it first hand.
The ASU doctoral student has been
in Skopje, thé Macedonian capital, for
two years. He’s doing research there
under the Fulbright Program.
Gillen, 28, along with three other
ASU undergraduates, is stuck in an area of the world where
Americans are often despised.
On Friday he spoke to his grandmother, who lives in
Mesa, and told her of the recent attack by Serb supporters on
the U.S. Embassy where he works.
. ¡“Steven was w orking in the em bassy when it was
burned.” she said of the Thursday assault. “A couple of
guards escorted him out of the building. Steven ran down
back streets and hid at a friend’s house.”
She also told of Gillen’s need to hide his American roots
and avoid speaking English for fear of being attacked.
The three other students are also in Skopje. They ate part
of ASU’s long-standing study abroad program with the
University of Sts. Kiril and Metodij in Macedonia.
ASU has asked the four students in the region to return
home, a move the U.S. Embassy advised. The airport in
Macedonia, however, is only open for departing flights
heading east.
.
“The students are being evacuated to Greece as the most
convenient exit point for possible onward travel arrange­
ments," said Steven Bataldcn. coordinator of the Study
Abroad Program at ASU.

Students protest NATO bombings

As bombs continue to pummel Yugoslavia half a world
away. 15 ASU students, mostly from the Balkan region,
stood in front of the Engineering Research Center Friday
to protest the NATO effort.
“W e’re gathering here today because we w ant the
bom bing to stop im m ediately,” said Rajka K rstic, an
aerospace engineering graduate student and research assis­
tant. She is from the Serb province of Vojvodina, north of
Belgrade.
■“Kosovo is our territory. We don’t want any outside
aggressors to interfere with our internal politics.”
Some demonstrators said the American people have
been deceived by the government and media.
, “The media didn’t present the situation in Kosovo accu­
rately,” Krstic said. “And as a consequence, Americans
don’t know how the conflict started.”
Another protester agreed.
“The biggest crime in this conflict is that the people are
being lied to,” said Stanko Brankovic, a science and engi­
neering materials graduate student.
Krstic said the Kosovo-Albanians, who belong to the
Kosovo Liberation Army, are the cause of the problem.
“They’re terrorists, not liberators,” she said.

All the Yugoslavian protesters said they have families
in the war zone and are worried about their safety.
“It’s unreal,” said Marko Princevac, a mechanical engi­
neering graduate student. “Everyday 1 talk to my brother
back in Belgrade. Now he’s hiding underground to be safe
from the bombs. It hurts.”
Most of the protesting students said the NATO bomb­
ing has ch an g ed how th ey f e e f ab o u t Y ug o slav ian
President Slobodan Milosevic.
“As a student (back in Yugoslavia) I was demonstrating
against Milosevic because 1 thought he was not good,”
Princevac said. “But now I support him. Now the whole
nation is behind him.”
During the two-hour long demonstration several stu­
dents stopped to talk with the protesters.
Passer-by Ben Monro, an architecture sophomore, said
he believes the media is distorting the picture of the war.
Monro also said he believes President Clinton was dishon­
est about his intentions.
. “Clinton is distorting the view,” Monro said. “He said
the bombing was a humanitarian effort, but that’s not true.
It’s all about politics and money.”
The demonstrators said they plan to protest every day
until the bombing stops.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Ordering up more firepower,
NATO raced against time Sunday to smash Serb military units
and head o ff what it called “genocide” against Kosovo
Albanians.
Thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees, accusing Serbs of
system atic brutality, fled into neighboring A lbania and
Macedonia Officials in both countries pleaded for intemational help to prevent a humanitarian crisis, and Albania called for
NATO ground troops to enter Kosovo — something NATO
says it has no plans to do.
Violence in Kosovo has escalated sharply since foreign
observers left the province and NATO began its airstrikes
against Yugoslavia, which is dominated by Serbs. NATO
spokesman Jamie Shea said in Brussels that die airstrikes were
no excuse for Serbs to slaughter Kosovo Albanians.
“Genocide is starting,” German Defense Minister Rudolf
Scharping said in a television interview with station ZDF.
For its part, Yugoslavia’s government-controlled news
media said Sunday that Serb security forces and civilians were
undo* attack by Kosovo Albanians.
Bratislava Morina, Serbia’s commissioner for refugees,
denied Serbs w ere behind the exodus and said ethnic
Albanians were leaving because of the NATO attacks. Ethnic
Albanians far outnumber Serbs in Kosovo, a province in
Serbia, Yugoslavia’s dominant republic.
“ There is no humanitarian catastrophe in Kosovo whatso­
ever,” she said on state-run Serbian television. “ Those manip­
ulations with die number of refugees, carried but by foreign

agencies arid media, are used to intensify (NATO) attacks on
Yugoslavia."
NATO promised to broaden attacks on Serb ground forces
in Kosovo, despite the downing o f a U.S. stealth bomber
Saturday night.
The fifth straight night of airstrikes began late Sunday, with
about 50 warplanes taking off from the NATO air base in
Aviano, Italy.
“We have to recognize that we are now on the brink of a
major humanitarian disaster ... the likes of which we have
not seen in Europe since thè closing days of World War II,”
Shea said.
More than 500,000 ethnic Albanians, a quarter of die popu­
lation of Kosovo, had been driven from their homes, 50,000 of
diem in just the past few days, he added
In Belgrade, thousands of defiant Serbs attended an antiNATO outdoor concert despite air raid sirens that signaled
continuing missile attacks. It was the 10th anniversary of the
day M ilosevic, th en S erbian C om m unist P arty chief,
stripped Kosovo o f much o f its autonomy, sowing the seeds
of the conflict.
In Albania, 10,000 people held a pro-NATO demonstration
in Tirana, the capital.
The NATO raids are intended to force Milosevic to agree
to a peace deal that calls for NATO troops to be based in
Kosovo to enforce the accord. The deal has already been
accepted by the province’s ethnic Albanian majority.
But Milosevic, through an official government statement
issued Saturday, again rejected the plan.

M att Salm on (R -A riz.) left for Tibet
Friday as the first U .S. Congressm an in
years to discuss hum an rights issues with
Chinese leaders.
S alm on, th e o n ly U.S. C ongressm an
who sp eak s M an d arin C h in ese, is vice
chairm an o f the International Operations
and Human Rights congressional subcom­
mittee.
He lived in Taiw an from 1977-79 and
said he is a strong advocate o f open, con­
structive dialogue with the Chinese.
The small Tibetan student body at ASU
appreciated Salmon’s visit.
“I hope this will put the focus on Tibet
and o u r oppressed peo p le,” said R obert
C h e d h u ri, a p o litic a l sc ie n c e sen io r.
“T ib et’s rights have been ignored for so
long, so I hope this is the start o f more

Western involvement.”
Chedhuri’s family left Tibet 10 years ago.
A 2 3 -y ear-o ld b u sin e ss se n io r from
Tibet, who requested that his name be with­
held, said he hopes the ty ran n y o f the
Chinese government will be exposed.
“The p o litical prisoners in T ibet are
ja ile d ju s t fo r h a v in g an o p in io n and
basic human rights are being ignored,” he
said. “The USA is not doing enough to
help.”
' „ .
Salm on said he hopes th at speaking
Mandarin Chinese during his visit will help
in the discussions.
“The purpose o f the trip is three-fold­
e d ,” said Salm on w ho’s going to be in
T ibet for 2 days before he continues to
Hong Kong. “First o f all, I’m going to pre­
sent a list o f prisoners-of-conscience, and
secondly I will ask for the release o f these
prisoners.”

He said most o f these prisoners are reli­
gious leaders, priests and nuns.
The congressman also has a more per­
sonal matter to address.
A Tibetan woman living in the United
States wants to visit her son — who is cur­
rently in a Chinese jail r— one last time
before she dies. Salmon said he hopes to
convince Chinese authorities to grant her
the wish. :

PHOENIX (AP) — Five Arizona Boys Ranch employ­
ees, once indicted for manslaughter, now face first-degree
murder charges in the death of a California teen.
A criminal complaint, filed Thursday in Pinal County
Superior Court, also accuses the form er em ployees of
child abuse in the M arch 1998 death o f 16-year-old
Nicholaus Contreraz.
“This is absolutely beyond reality,” Darrow Soli, a
law yer fo r d efendant M ontgom ery H oover, told The
' Arizona Republic. “N o one has ever thought that this was
a first-degree murder case.”
The indictment says the defendants com m itted firstdegree murder by killing Contreraz as théy committed, or
attem pted to commit, child abuse. Under Arizona law,
first-degree murder charges may be filed when a death
occurs during the commission of a felony.
Hoover, Geoffrey S. Lewis, Michael M. Moreno, Troy
M. Jones and Linda Babb were initially indicted Sept. 30
on manslaughter charges. They all pleaded innocent.
The charges were dismissed earlier this year by prose­
cutors who blamed a technical problem in impaneling the
grand jury. Defense lawyers said some jurors admitted
being aware o f previous abuse at the Boys Ranch and the
entire panel was given prejudicial evidence.
Directory assistance had no listing in Florence or Casa
Grande for Assistant County Attorney Janna Vanderpool
and she couldn’t be reached for comment. Charles Ratliff,
a spokesman for the Pinal County Attorney’s Office, said
he wasn’t aware murder charges had been filed.
Defense lawyers, meanwhile, blasted Vanderpool.
Soil accused the prosecutor o f submitting the murder
complaint in retaliation for defense efforts to dismiss the
indictments and obtain discovery materials.
Joe Chomenky, Lewis’ attorney, said he didn’t know if
the murder charges were vindictive in nature but did say
Vanderpool was ill-prepared.
Chomenky said he would seek an immediate dismissal.
Contreraz, a Sacramento teen with an extensive crimi­
nal record, died o f severe lung ailments at a Boys Ranch
boot camp in Oracle.
Investigators concluded he had been sick for days, but
was forced to work, exercise and was ridiculed by employ­
ees at the residential program for juvenile offenders.
The medical examiner discovered 2 1/2 quarts o f pus in
the lining o f Contreraz’s lungs, plus more than 70 cuts,
bruises and other wounds.
Because Contreraz was constantly vomiting and suf­
fered from diarrhea, he was seen repeatedly by Babb, the
Boys Ranch nurse. But he was considered a malingerer,
and the infection was never diagnosed.
Witnesses said staffers forced Contreraz to do push-ups
over a pail o f excrement-soiled clothing. Child Protective
Services workers documented abuse or neglect on the part
o f 17 ran ch em p lo y ees, b u t only fiv e fa c e crim in al
charges.
Since C ontreraz’s death, ranch operations have dis­
solved. The Department o f Economic Security has refused
to renew the organization’s license immediately. Five of
six campuses are closed, and the resident population has
dwindled from about 600 to 40.

High court decision abandons art

a

irector Oliver Stone has built
h is career by v ilify in g
American media, business and
government His films attempt to dissect
American institutions, as if they were
cancerous organisms within our society.
Now, the Supreme Court has pointed
back at Stone and suggested that perhaps
he’s die one spreading die disease.
On M arch 8, the Suprem e C ourt
decided Stone and the Tim e W arner
Entertainment Co. could be sued for lia­
bility in the 1995 Louisiana shooting o f Patsy Ann Byers.
The 38-year-old clerk was left paralyzed, after being shot
while working in a convenience store. Byers recently died of
cancer. The lawsuit was filed by her husband.
The shooter, Sarah Edmondson, an Oklahoma judge’s
daughter who was 18 at the time o f the incident, claimed she
and her boyfriend, Ben Darras, 18, were inspired to commit
the shooting after watching the 1994 film N atural B o m
Killers, which was co-written and directed by Stone and dis­
tributed by Time W arn«,
Blaming entertainm ent for violence in society is not
uncommon. Yet, the Supreme Court’s willful ignorance of
the First Amendment is becoming all too common. This case,
and any greedy lawyer involved, should have been thrown
out like a pair of old tennis shoes. H ie idea that Hollywood is
responsible for the moral decay of society is worn out, falling
apart and stinks o f foul hypocrisy.
Natural B om K illers is certainly disturbing and often dis­
tasteful, but the violent satire is best described as downright
silly. Anyone fool enough to imitate die two mass murderers
in the film would have to be on drags.
In fact, Darras and Edmondson took 23 doses o f LSD
over two days before watching the video repeatedly, accord­
ing to Edmondson’s defense lawyer, in a 1997 article from
Mae Journal o f the Am erican B ar A ssociation. Darras and
Edmondson are said to have watched the film more than 20
times.
Last Monday, Byers’ family attorney Joseph Simpson told
N B C ’s Today show he feels they have a case because
Natural B om Killers has been linked to 14 different murders
around the world.
Simpson also told NBC that, according to Louisiana law,
the Byers family need o ily demonstrate that die violence in
the fihn was one factor leading to the shooting. If Stone and
Time W arn« are found even slightly at fault, they still pay 50

C h in a is th ere?

percent of the damages, due to the disproportionate wealth of
die defendants.
The Supreme Court has set a frightening precedent by
saying citizens can sue filmmakers for depicting violence in
their work. If this legal standard were applied to all directors
accused o f glorifying violence, lawsuits would be fried
against artists like Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick and
Martin Scorsese.
Scorsese’s film, Taxi Driver, was said to be an inspiration
to John Hinckley when he shot President Reagan; Mark
David Chapman was said to have read J.D. Salinger’s novel,
The: C atcher in the Rye, before killing John Lennon. The
Bible iS often used as justification for violence like bombing
abortion clinics, murdering anyone inside. Should book­
stores, libraries and churches be open to lawsuits too?
Furthermore, the Supreme Court’s decision to let the
Byers’ suit go forward provides classic irony. On the same
day, March 8, they also upheld the conviction and death sen­
tence o f Timothy McVeigh. McVeigh was the man found
responsible for the 1995 bombing o f a federal building in
Oklahom a C ity. He reportedly got the idea for the bombing
from a book called The Turner Diaries by William L: Pierce.
If the Supreme Court is willing to let the producers of
N atural B om Killers bear responsibility for a senseless act of
violence, what about the responsibility Pierce has for detail­
ing an atrocious crime in his bode that McVeigh would even­
tually act out in real life? Shouldn’t Pierce also pay damages
to the families of those 168 victims?
This inconsistency betrays a conservative bias against pop­
ular culture that’s o ld « than Bob Dole. If there were only one
film that portrayed the government’s treatment of commercial
entertainment, the title would be Political Whipping Boy.
Still, in the five years since N atural B om K illers was
released, America has managed to survive the rise of gang­
ster rap, teenage slasher movies and violent talk shows.
We’ve learned to tolerate, if not admire, the artistic expres­
sions of controversial icons like Quentin Tarantino, Marilyn
Manson and the creators o f South Park.
O liv er S to n e ’s ex cessiv e m an ifesto on the m oral
bankruptcy o f our society will never be everyone’s idea of
great art. That said, Natural B om Killers should still be pro­
tected speech undo- the First Amendment Just because a few
people misinterpret the message doesn’t mean we should
shoot the messenger.

Opinion
L e tte r s E d ito “
Kosovo com m ents
In the Mar. 26 State Press, there appeared two opinion
pieces on the Kosovo crisis. They were of differential persua­
sive effect, but nonetheless, too interesting in themselves and
in relation to each other to ignore or treat in isolation.
In the first, Brad Whisler admonishes that “there exist a
number of economic and political tools that have not been
thoroughly explored.” But, without examples, how do we
know he’s not really proposing something lilre those economic
sanctions on Iraq, which he himself urged die retraction of a
few weeks back? He does not make the alternatives clear at all
— aside from NATO vs. U.N. handling •— yet, he is quite
vehement as to the unacceptability of the status quo.
Never mind, as well, that U.N. effectiveness could be com­
promised at die outset by the strong pre-disposition of Russia
to render assistance to Serbia. (The other columnist shows the
good sense not to write Russia off.) Whisler’s main concern is
with the practice of U.S. internationalism. “If stability is to
remain, it must be an international effort and not left in the
hands of elitist world powers.” But what constitutes elitism to
Whisler, might just constitute, to the rest of us, the only posi­
tion from which to work an effective solution.
More than that, erf course, it is rank distortion to view NATO
action as essentially unilateral. If anything, NATO should be
more multilateral now than it has ever been. I suppose that
NATO air strikes are less “fully” multilateral than U.N. sanc­
tions, I can also accept that this NATO offensive is a first B ut
all in all, this volatile climate requires extraordinary steps, and it
can be argued that die U.N. was not completely and assuredly
able and willing to take them.
Frank Sackton, meanwhile, argues more convincingly for
pacifism simply by offering Caspar Weinberger’s six tests of
the viability of U.S. intervention. The answers to three — lack
of clearly defined objectives* potentially insufficient commit­
ment and unclear expectations o f public and Congressional
support — all point to ambiguous if not negative results for
NATO. Whisler, in mentioning “economic and political tools”
without specification, in effect, attempts to answer a fourth.
Yet, there is no intrinsic reason for the United States to
remain so inert, if indeed it is. Plus, the situation meets one of
Weinberger’s tests: the vital interest. Although even this is
ambiguous, as of now the United States is committed to inter­
vention in Serbia to exactiy the extent that reigning in Milosevic
is vital to its interests. This will guarantee that deployment will
not cease until the United States either definitely passes or defi­
nitely foils all of the tests.

Dangerous statements
I am writing in response to the article “Playboy visit isn’t
‘dangerous,” in the M arch 25 edition. I, personally, am
ashamed for Ms. Johnson and feel that her education at ASU
has been a total waste o f time and money. It seems that her
pleas that the upcoming Playboy interviews of ASU women do
not ‘objectify* nor ‘degrade’ women and in fact, is a good idea
for all ‘able bodied’ ASU coeds to sign right up.
Ms. Johnson could not be more wrong.
“If society wants to blame these magazines for violent
crimes, such as rape and abuse, then society can play the fool.”
When I first read this quote, enlarged in the center of the arti­

cle, I believed it to be taken from Mr. Hefner’s own lips. I was
shocked to hear it from a woman, especially a college student.
Those magazines are, in-fact, the institutional agents that
promote such cruel acts toward women. These magazines dis­
play women as solely sexual objects that men can control and
disrespect, rape and abuse. There is no honor nor glory in these
magazines or for the women who pose for them.
As for Ms. Johnson’s assumption that “jealousy” is the con­
tributing factor that powers the feminist movement; I am sure
that the reason that women have the right to vote, right to equal
promotion in the workplace and even the right to attend the
same university that I, a man, attend, is singly due to the fact
that one of them was jealous of ‘Mrs. Jones’ new boob job.
I suggest that Ms. Johnson open her tightly shut eyes to the
fact it is an insult to women to say that they all share such shal­
low views.
If women in this society expect to gain the equality that
they deserve, both men and women need to understand that
magazines like Playboy cater to the objectification and degra­
dation of women, 'because all they show are dehumanized
breasts and ass.
I say to all women that are thinking about trying out for
this ‘Girls of the PAC-10’ — Is this what you want people to
see when they think about all the time and energy that went
into your education at ASU? Alsorto all people who feel that
Playboy hinders the women’s movement, protest! They are
going to run it no matter what, but that doesn’t mean that they
can’t have some bad PR ...

In Stephanie Johnson’s column regarding Playboy visit­
ing campus (March 25), the columnist explains how she has
changed her opinion from o b jecting to the nudity in
Playboy and the skimpy swimsuit calendars, to accepting it
and encouraging it. She claims that jealousy is die motiva­
tion behind these objections. However, she is forgetting an
entirely different perspective that accounts for many people
objecting to nudity and thé im plied “objectification o f
women " Many people who are practicing Christians or of
other practicing religious [persuasion], view this issue as
one of right and wrong.
It is an issue about the values o f modesty and purity,
which are pleasing to God. For them, it is not about jeal­
ousy, money or the vain pursuit o f self. I object to being
classified as jealous or as one who is not “ ... comfortably
accepting of my sexuality . . . ” and I am offended at this
being considered the basis for my disapproval of Playboy.
Also, Johnson claims that “A woman who chooses to
exercise her constitutional right to freely express herself
through nude pictures should do so, and should not be sub­
ject to ridicule.”
I have two comments on this statement. First, if people
are ridiculing women for posing in Playboy, they also have
a constitutional right to free speech to do so. Second, there
is not only a difference between ‘ridicule’ and ‘criticize,’
but there is also a difference between criticizing a person
and criticizing a person’s behavior. I may criticize a behav­
ior as wrong, but I am riot criticizing the woman.
Please remember, that professional writing, even in opin­
ion columns, should strive to represent all views accurately,

O n w rong track
Hello State Press and welcome to the wonderful world of
metrics! First lesson: 1500 meters does not equal 1 mile. In
fact, 1 mile is 109 meters longer than 1500m. Recent articles
have implied otherwise, however.
In two State Press articles last week on the ASU track team,
the writer stated that ASU athletes were competing at the distance of 1 mile. This is not correct. Priscilla Hein did not run 1
mile in 4:12. She ran 1500m in 4:12. Priscilla Hein is very talented, but not yet ready to vie for a world record in the mile.
Brandon Strong is also a good runner, but he does not have a
personal record o f 3:47 in the mile. He normally runs the
1500m distance, and did so on Friday at the Baldy Castillo
Invitational, contrary to what was stated in ASU’s popular
newspaper.
Perhaps in the future the State Press could have someone
who has actually been to a track meet write the track and field
articles.

l am writing in regards to an ASASU campaign poster I
saw on Campus the other day. The poster, reading “Want recycling in the dorm s,” asked College o f Liberal Arts and
Sciences students to Vote for ASASU senate candidates Darin
Wisehart and Greg Ensell.
Unfortunately, these two candidates are deliberately misleading the students of ASU and trying to win their election by
any means necessary, ASASU and the ASASU senate have
absolutely nothing to do with recycling programs in Arizona
State’s residence halls. Oversight and implementation of recycling programs in the halls is the responsibility of the associate
director of campus affairs for the Residence Hall Association,
or RHA. The current occupant of that office is myself and last
time I checked, I did not share it with Darin Wisehart; Greg
Ensell or any member of the ASASU senate.
Currently, aluminum cans and newspapers are recycled in
ASU’s residence halls. RHA is currently testing methods to
expand the recycling program, but it is lirnited in its capacity to
do so due to a co n tract R esidential L ife has w ith
Weyerhaeuser.
Mr, W isehart and Mr. Ensell should immediately take
down these campaign posters.
, Additionally, Mr. Wisehart and Mr. Ensell need to apologize to the students of ASU for trying to win votes by deliberately misleading them. If, however, Mr. Wisehart and Mr.
Ensell find their true passion is improving the recycling program in our residence halls, they should not be running for the
ASASU senate, but for an office in RHA,

Arizona Secretary of State Betsey Bayless discusses women’s issues
with Scottsdale Mayor Sam Campana as site leaves the Women’s
Coalition’s breakfast meeting at the University Club on Fridays

Women have come a long way, but there’s still another
milestone to go before they will have the same opportuni­
ties as men, said Arizona Secretary of State Betsey Bayless
at the University Club on Friday morning.
Bayless was invited to thè ASU W om en’s Coalition
breakfast meeting to speak about her career and education­
al background to a group of about 60 ASU and local high
school students and faculty.
Bayless had a clear message for the women who attend­
ed the breakfast.
“One thing you need to do, that I feel very strongly
about, is help other women,’’ Bayless said.
Members said Bayless’ message hit home.
“The W omen’s Coalition’s main purpose is to help fund
and assist existing and future women’s organizations,” said
Marlina Perdite, a bioengineering junior and public rela­
tions chair for the coalition.
A t the m eetin g , th e c o a litio n p re se n te d its firs t
Outstanding Woman of the Year Award to Nonnie Shivers,
program coordinator for student advocacy and assistance.
G eni Green, the coalition’s treasurer and museum studies
graduate student, said Shivers was honored because of her
extensive work on behalf o f the coalition.
“I’m touched,” Shivers said after receiving the award.
“It will definitely encourage me to work even harder.”

Bayless said she w as im pressed w ith the W om en’s
Coalition’s work.
“When I was younger, this organization would not have
been possible,'’ Bayless said. “In fact, people would have
laughed if I said I wanted to form a women’s coalition.”
Bayless told the audience about herself and the history
o f a society in which women had limited opportunities.
“I was raised to get married,” she said. “A woman was not
supposed to have a career back then. When I came out of col­
lege in 1966,1 was very interested in international banking.”
“W hat 1 didn’t know was that women were not wel­
comed in professional fields,” she said. Bayless experi­
enced this when she worked as a clerk in a local bank.in
Arizona. Her boss told her the bank was not allowed to
promote women and if she wanted a career, she would have
to move on, she recollected.
Bayless said she saw other women in government, So
she went to ASU to get a master’s degree in public admin­
istration. That was the springboard to a 17-year-long career
with the state o f Arizona.
“I moved all the way from the total bottom of the barrel
—r minimum wage — to be the director of the Department
o f Administration,” Bayless said.
She was elected for two four-year terms to the Maricopa
C ounty B oard o f S upervisors in 1992 and 1996. She
resigned in 1998, when she was appointed Secretary o f
State by Gov. Jane Dee Hull.

S u m m it focus: sunnier
'clim a te fo r diversity'
B y J u n e 0 . W il h it e
S t a t e P ress

ASU students and faculty agreed that the
bright sun and cool breeze Saturday morn­
ing made for great weather, but much more
is necessary for a great cultural climate.
More than 200 students and faculty attend­
ed workshops at die Campus Climate for
Diversity summit. The workshops held in
classrooms of the Business College focused
on faculty and staff contributions to cam­
pus climate, diversity in the ASU curricu­
lum and the unity of student organizations.
“The summit is a unique opportunity for
students to address specific issues that are
o f concern, such as the lack o f minority
p ro fe sso rs,” said K athya N. H idalgo, a
training assistant in the ASU Intergroup
Relations C enter. “We want to recognize
how d iv e rs ity w ill p la y a ro le in th e
University’s future,”
Sylvia Hurtado, an associate professor at
the U niversity o f M ichigan, opened the
fo ru m by sh a rin g fin d in g s fro m h e r
research on college cam pus clim ates for
diversity
“W e now know the costs o f institution­
al n eg lect a n d how racism and sexism
have an im pact on students, inside and
outside o f the classroom ,” Hurtado said.
“And representation is the beginning o f
the work that needs to be done —• the first
step to creating a diverse community.”

Changing the behavior o f students and
faculty will be her next step.
“W e have to train our students to sur­
vive in a complex o f diversity,” she said.
“They must know how to interact amongst
people with social differences.”
One student said she enjoyed Hurtado’s
insight, but her incentive for attending the
su m m it w as to b re a k dow n th e w alls
between ASU and the community outside
o f it.
“A lot people see ASU as its own com­
munity and we need to change that,” said
Carmen Rodriguez, a business freshman.
“It’s important to tear down these walls of
isolation and find a connection between all
people. We need to be one community.”
T he su m m it w as sp o n so re d by the
C am pus E nvironm ent Team , Intergroup
R e la tio n s C e n te r, U n iv e rsity C a re e r

W ork. It w as th e firs t o f its k in d and
Hidalgo said the unexpectedly big turnout
is a sign th at m ore w ill be held in the
future.
“O ur goal will continue to be to bring
to g e th e r stu d en ts to inform fa c u lty o f
their needs and their concerns about the
c lim a te fo r d iv e r s ity on c a m p u s ,”
Hidalgo said.

jenny Holsman

Mike Sosso

Age: 21
M^jor: political science
Class level: junior
Years at ASU: 3
Making sure this year’s plans are followed through
to completion is Holsman’s biggest objective if elect­
ed. She currently serves as the ASASU government
relations director and said implementing teacher eval­
uations and streamlining graduation requirements are
student government programs that must be carried out
next year.
“Students should be able to graduate in four years and make educated
choices when signing up for classes,” she said
She also wants to attend the Arizona Board o f Regents meetings to dis­
cover what really concerns students.
“I’ve met a lot o f students who want things done that go unnoticed,” she
said. “I want to be the student voice and listen to all o f their concerns.”
Her platform includes creating a longer drop/add period and more aca­
demic advising to assist students in registering. She said a safer campus is
feasible through additional blue-light phones, lighting and police officers.
Benefits for teaching assistants is an issue she said she will work on for
graduate students.
Current president of the Panhelenic Council and member o f the Student
Alumni Association, Holsman has also been a Devil’s Advocate, founder
o f tiie Women’s Coalition, a residential assistant and an ASU cheerleader.
She has lobbied in Washington, D.C., for student issues arid helped orga­
nize this semester’s “Don’t Pull the Plug on Higher Education” campaign
to support university funding. She has also worked on the student privacy
and tuition cap bills currently in the state legislature.

Age: 19
M ajor: political science/econom ics
C lass level: junior
Years at ASU: 2
“I want students to be better represented than they
are,” Sosso, the current A SA SU senator for C ollege
o f Liberal Arts and Sciences, said.
He said that getting the entire campus to w orki
together, including minorities and international stu­
dents, w ill be one o f his biggest goals, if elected.
Implementing an ASASU-sponsored scholarship-fund would also be
one o f his priorities, he said, along with creating and a shuttle bus that
would take students to and from the airport.
Organizing a book co-op, similar to the bike co-op, is another goal
Sosso said he would like to start working on.
“With this, students could trade books back and forth instead o f sell­
ing them to the bookstore and paying high prices to get new ones,” he
said.
He said the co-op would be a huge undertaking, but could be com­
pleted within three years.
Another platform idea he has is holding A SA SU officers account­
able by running ads in the Sta te P ress to let students know what they
are doing and where money is being spent. He said students can then
provide A SA SU with feedback.
Sosso is a Freshman Year Experience tutor, D evils Advocate, leader­
ship scholar and member o f Colin P ow ell’s National Youth Advisory
Board, fo r which he evaluates C ongress’ youth-related legislation.
Sosso added he has “a lot to offer in terms o f leadership.”

“ I pride m yself in being a professional in everything I do,” she
said. “ I want to w ork with as m any people as I can, and I’m excit­
ed and confident that 1 can do the things I say I will.”

“ I have a tru e desire to lead the cam pus,” he said. “ It is my
caring nature th a t w ill allow m e to succeed.”

Age: 21
Major: civil engineering
Class level: junior
Years at ASU: 4
Sistak said he’s most concerned about “saving ■■all]
students’ pocketbooks.”
As current A S A S U senator for the C o lle g e o f I
Engineering, he has been working with the state!
Legislature to ensure that the University is adequately
funded. He said he also wants to ensure that A SU ’s
organizations are better funded.
“As a senator and the appropriations chairman, I have worked extensive­
ly with campus groups,” he said. “Simply, we just don’t have enough
money to give. I want to get extra funding to allow them to do what they
want to do on and for the campus.”
He said he plans to do this by talking with administrators about the
clubs’ budget demands and by shifting money from other areas o f the
ASASU budget.
He said he is an advocate o f the tuition cap bill that is currently in the
state Legislature, which would limit the amount that the Arizona Board of
Regents could increase tuition each year. He is also currently working on
university privacy issues with the state and said he will continue until A SU
stops using Social Security numbers as student ID numbers.

‘T d lo v e to be involved in the issues o f our cam­
pus and liste n to w hat stu d en ts’ con cern s are,”
Webb said. “I am always talking to people.”
She said her main goal, if elected, w ould be to
create more scholarships for students.
“Finances can be one o f the biggest hindrances,” she said. “It can be
the biggest problem for those who don’t graduate. They simply don’t
have enough money to stay in school.”
She said she believes students learn the most from campus clubs and
organizations, which is why she would like to see more money allotted
for their activities.
“Clubs are such a nice opportunity to get leadership experience. It is
a really easy way for (students) to get involved, and I want to support
that in any way I can,” she said.
Although she’s never been involved in any campus clubs, Webb said
she doesn’t consider this a hindrance.

“ T h e (executive vice president) position is definitely one that
requires past experience,” he said. “ Ybu have to know the bud­
get and how to run a m eeting inside out. T h a t’s som ething I’ve
already had to learn.”

“ I'm c o m m itte d to th e job,” she said. “ T h a t’s rea lly why
I’m running.”

“The Campus Affairs Office does the most advoca­
cy and meaningful programs for students*” Chase said,
giving that as the reason he wants to make the transi­
tion from ASASU senator to an executive officer.
He currently represents the Honors C ollege in
A S A S U and fo u n d ed the P o litic a l E ducation
Coalition. He’s participated in Leadership 2000 and is
a member o f A llies in Action, which both aim to promote diversity on
campus.
“l want to hire a diverse staff,” he said. “I am going to target people
who are not just ethnically diverse, but in perspectives and experiences.
He said he would like to make the department more advocacy focused
through new programming and existing services.
“I want to create critical issues programming that is not only entertain­
ing but focused on issues that affect our lives,” ne said. “And we can build
up partnerships through these events.”
His best qualification is his “ability to think outside the book, not just to
look for the same solutions over and over again as ASASU has a tendency
to do,” he said.
“ I like to get to know people and I'm proactive. Th is job is not
one o f m aintaining the sam e program s, but it's one of growth
and having a vision o f what it could be.”

“We spent thousands o f'
dollars on hom ecom ing and Brother Jed the

by hurling insults,” she said.
She added that UofA produces the largest stu­
dent-run Spring carnival in the nation, but
“according to our demographics, we should be
doing that.”
She currently works for the Activities Office
and is helping organize Mardi Gras.
“I want to see someone who’s actually going,
to work for the position,” she said. “I’m not just
going for the namesake.”
Expanding the Student Advisory Board is her
biggest goal: She said it would consist o f repre­
sentatives from all 400 clubs on campus that
could meet regularly to exchange ideas and
organize programs.
“The more people we have involved, pooling
their resources, the bigger our even ts w ill
become,” she said.
She said she would like to hire a coordinator
to work with the multicultural director under, the
umbrella o f the Activities Office. The coordina­
tor, she said, Would act as a liaison between the
student government and international students
and help promote diverse events.

“ I would also like to, in som e way, have voting tied to registra­
tion so that you would vote fo r A S A S U officers when you regis­
te r for classés,” he said. ‘ -It would make voting m ore accessi '
and it would increase participation.”

leadership should, too.
“I feel that with as diverse
o f a student population as
we have, we should have much more diverse
representation,” he said. “Because I’ve been
involved in many different groups and activities,
I would be able to represent a number o f interest
groups on campus.’?
He is a residential assistant, president o f the
Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, a member o f
the ASU gospel choir, a tutor for America Reads
and founder o f SPEAK, Students Pursuing
Equality And Knowledge.
H e said he w o u ld better rep resent the
University’s many cultures by sponsoring pro­
grams that address issues o f diversity and cul­
ture.
“Although we have a diverse population here,
we don’t utilize it,” he said. “Our learning expe­
rience should not just be in the classroom, but
outside as well.”
Among his qualifications, he said his involve­
ment in so many organizations is the strongest.
“ By being so close to the students, I've
heard a lot of their concerns ” he said. “ I
have the leadership skills to really m ake
an im p a ct on th e stu d en t’s lives as an
executive officer.”

Purdue knew at halftime of Monday’s championship game
against Duke that beating the Blue Devils would not be an easy
task, especially considering the Boilermakers had just put up
some of the worst first-half offensive numbers in NCAA title
game history.
But for Purdue seniors Stephanie White McCarty and Ukari
Figgs, responding to adversity and sticking through tough

times to achieve glory is nothing new.

Boilermakers’ second-half ran to their first ever national cham­
pionship, 62-45.
Figgs, who scored 24 points in Friday's semifinal victory
over Louisiana Tech, struggled badly in the first half on

Purdue players celebrate their first-ever national championship Monday after a 62-45 victory over Duke.

just 17 points, a championship game record-low for one half.
But Figgs scored 18 points in the second half, six coming in
a 12-1 run that pulled the Boilermakers from behind and put
them ahead to stay. Figgs made five her eight second-half shots
and was named the outstanding player of the Final Four.
“Again, Ukari Figgs showed the great leader that she is,”
Purdue head coach Carolyn Peck said to ESPN after the game.
“She stepped up big for this team, and die rest followed suit”
“I knew I came out and let my team down in the first half,”
Figgs said. “I wasn’t being aggressive to the basket I was set­
tling for some outside shots, and they weren’t fallingTot me. I
knew I had 20 minutes to be a winner or loser, and I wanted us
to go out winners.”
White-McCarty, until spraining her ankle with four minutes
to play, was also steady, scoring 12 points.
“Lthink we’re redly excited,” she said. “I’m just so happy
for this team, We’ve come so far, and everybody just stepped
up and played great Ukari carried us. It means a lo t This is
what we stayed for— the opportunity (to win a tide).”
After Lin Dunn’s resignation after the 1995-96 season,
guard M ichelle Erickson and center M ichelle Van Gorp,
among others, elected to switch schools rather than adjust to
another coaching change. Erickson and Van Gorp elected to
transfer to Duke, which entered the tourney as a three seed,
defeated three-time defending national champion Tennessee in
the East Regional final and was attempting to win a title in the
same year that its male counterparts are going for a ring.
The Blue Devils took a 22-17 halftime lead after a first half
filled with turnovers and missed shots and was up 30-28 when
Purdue started clicking by driving the ball to the basket instead
of settling for jump shots, as die Boilermakers had done previ­
ously.
Van Gorp’s layup drew Duke to 42-38 with 7:48 left, but
Purdue guard Katie Douglas sank a trey to widen the lead
again, and the Blue Devils would not get closer than five again.
I tell you what, it’s the highest,” said Peck, whose brief twoyear stint at Purdue is now finished as she will join the expan­
sion Orlando franchise in the WNBA. “This team has done this
all year long. They stood behind their teammates. They play
hard for each other.”
“I still don’t know (to feel) yet,” Purdue center Camille
Cooper said. ‘T m trying to take it all in. It’s something we
worked for. I’m just so proud for our team. It was a great win.”

L o n g ball kills Sun D evils in Pac-10 o p e n e rs
B y C h r is O a r l o c k
S t a t e P ress

The ASU softball team was hoping to
get off to a good start in the Pac-10 season.
They did just that by winning its first game
against Oregon State 3-0,
But it was all down hill from there.
“It was pretty brutal,” head coach Linda
Wells said after her Sun Devils (30-7) lost
three gam es in a row to go to 1-3 in the
Pac-10.
Coming into the weekend ranked third in
the nation, ASU had relied on timely hitting
and dominating pitching in climbing to its
highest national ranking in school history.
N eith er was evident ag ain st O regon on
Saturday as the Sun Devils were crushed 81 and 7-2. Pitchers K irsten Voak, Erica
Beach and Kathy Ponce combined to sur­
render 26 hits and seven home runs in two
games.
“Home run balls killed us,” Wells said.
V o ak (1 7 -4 ) w as ro c k e d fo r sev en
earned runs in five innings, including four
home runs in the first game against Oregon
(27-10, 2-2 Pac-10) on Saturday. To Voak’s
credit, she was not feeling well, but the four
home runs given up bring her season total
to 13, a num ber that shows the freshman
sensation is human after all.
The Ducks came into die game having
launched 37 bom bs in 35 gam es, but the
Sun Devils weren’t planning on having to
get their necks examined after watching so
many balls fly out of the yard.
“I don’t know (if) we were surprised that
they would hit it out,” Wells said. “We were
more surprised with how often they hit it out.”
The Sun Devil offense didn’t help mat­
ters. The potent lineup, which cgme into the

w eekend batting over . 300, scored only
eight runs in four games.
“I’m more used to this team putting up
eight runs in a game. So to put up eight runs
in fo u r gam es? O u ch ,” she said. “O ur
offense was really disappointing all week­
end.”
ASU started off on the right foot with an
opening 3-0 win over Oregon State Friday
night. Beach hit her fourth home run o f the
season, a two-run shot in the first inning to
give the Sun Devils all they would need.
Voak took care o f the rest as she fanned
seven batters en route to winning her 17th
game of the season.
In the nightcap, Oregon State capitalized
on four Sun Devil errors and held off a late

After the 8-1 pounding the Sun Devils
to o k from O reg o n in th e fir s t gam e
Saturday, hopes were high for gaining a
weekend split. But hope alone doesn’t win
ball gam es and the Sun D evils fell 7-2.
After tying the score at two in the second
inning, the Ducks scored a run in the fourth
and four runs over the next three innings off
o f B each to sw eep ASU. B each (12-4)
allowed 14 hits, including two home runs
and the Sun Devil offense could only plate
two runs despite collecting nine hits.
Things won’t get any easier for ASU as
second-ranked UofA comes to town next
Saturday. The Wildcats swept Oregon and
split with Oregon State.

will be this hard or harder.”
N o te s
Nichole Thompson extended her hitting

streak to 14 games with hits in each o f the

losses are the first time the Sun Devils have
lost consecutive games all season. The loss
to Oregon State saw an eight-game ASU
winning streak snapped.

A S U whips Bears in emotionally-charged contest
B y P e r c y E d n a l in o J r .
S t a t e P ress

It’s a typical formality after eveiy sporting event fra- players
on both teams to meet midway and exchange handshakes. The
postgame handshake is typically viewed as both a sign of good
sportsmanship and that no hard feelings exist
But that wasn’t entirely the case Sunday afternoon, when
the No. 20 ASU baseball team handed California a 19-11 whip­
ping in front of 2,919 fans at Packard Stadium. That’s not to
say Cal acted like a pots' sport, but hard feelings definitely exist
between die two clubs.
After the game, Cal assistant coach Scott Murray was the
team’s lone representative to exchange handshakes with ASU’s
players.
“They didn’t want to shake hands,” ASU head coach Pat
Murphy simply said of Cal’s players and coaches. “Sometimes
when emotions are running high, it’s better not to shake
hands.”
And how. All weekend long, ASU had given Cal plenty of
fits. The Sun Devils opened the series with a 12-10 win, fol­
lowed by a 25-0 shellacking on Saturday night Saturday’s win
was ASU’s sixth shutout win of the season, which is four shy
of the school record of 10 set in 1976.
But for Cal, the 25-0 loss translated into bad feelings toward
ASU on Sunday.
In the fifth inning, ASU pitcher Chad Pennington hit Cal’s
Jason Williams with a pitch after Williams had called fo ra time
out. The beaning, which ASU designated hitter Casey Myers
said was unintentional, prompted heated words from Cal’s
players and coaches, .
Later that inning, Cal pitcher Jason Dennis retaliated and
plunked Willie Bloomquist in the back with his first pitch. The
act resulted in ejections for both Dennis and Cal head coach
Bob Milano.
Myers said the Sun Devils tend to play confidently against
Cal, which may have added to the high emotions. For the past
three seasons, ASU has notched a 13-1 record against the
Bears.
. “Because we have been doing so well, we can come out and
expect to win (against Cal),” Myers said. “Against Stanford,
it’s just the opposite where you think you can win, but you
don’t know i t ”
With the series sweep, the Sun Devils (27-11, 3-3 Pac-10)
pulled back into the middle of the conference. Murphy said he
was pleased with the way his team played, especially since Cal
altered the weekend having defeated No. 17 Long Beach St;
on the road.
Myers said ASU’s three losses at Stanford earlier this month
in the conference opener had put the Sun Devils toward the
bottom of the Pac-10 standings. But with the wins, Myers said die team is now poised and confident enough to claw to the top.
“We’re in a lot better position now than from where we

were,” Myers said. “It was really good for us to shine and get
these three wins.”
But Murphy said he’s not going to start celebrating just yet
“This league is so tough that you just play it one day at a
time,” Murphy said. “We scored a lot of runs (Saturday) and
we came back out focused again today and kept the pressure on
them.”
ASU pitcher Eric Doble (1-1) was credited with the win.
Doble gave up only one run and one hit in the fourth. Cal’s
Jason Ball (2-2) absorbed the loss.
Sunday’s game was a breakthrough for Myers (see sidebar,,
who was a Sporting News first-team freshman All-American.
Previously this season, Myers had been struggling, but not to a

point where Murphy was worried.
“It’s been coming,” Murphy said. “He struggled a little bit
early but it’s been coming, there’s no question about it. We
stuck with him. He knows how to hit but when he’s going bad,
he can look pretty bad. Some people probably look out there
and say, ‘Wow, there’s the (No. 4) hitter at Arizona State?”’
Myers said he doesn’t bear any hard feeling toward Cal.
‘T m kind of anti-confrontational,” he said. “When you get a
team down like that — and this is my thought -— you don’t
really want to get into a confrontation because you might spur
them on. If you’re beating them bad, you keep beating them.
But you don’t want to rub their noses into it and we never try to
rub anyone’s noses into i t ”

ished with seven strikeouts in four innings and allowed four
earned runs.

It turned out to be a pretty productive weekend for ASU
pitcher Chad Pennington.
Suffering from a nagging abdominal injury for about five
weeks now, Pennington was considered a question mark by
ASU coach Pat Murphy.
But Murphy went to Pennington in the ninth to record the
final out of ASU’s 12-10 win over Cal and also had him pitch
four innings in Sunday’s 19-11 win.
Pennington struck out the only batter he faced on Friday to
earn his second save of the year.
T hen on Sunday, M urphy decided against starting
Pennington and instead gave the ball to Jon Switzer. After
three innings from Switzer and short stints by Charlie
Williamson and Eric Doble (who picked up his first career
win), Murphy brought in Pennington with the score 9-6 in
ASU’s favor.
The reason for not starting Pennington was simple.
“We wanted to have somebody for the end,” Murphy said.
“We knew he coukta’t go nine, so we’d rather have him the
last five.”
Pennington allowed an unearned run in the sixth, blanking
Cal in the fifth, seventh and eighth innings. Pennington had a
rough ninth inning, facing four batters without recording an

Casey Myers’ third inning single on Sunday extended his
hitting streak to 12 consecutive games. But that’s a footnote
to what he did in his last two at bats.
The seme was 10-7 in the bottom of the sixth inning and
the bases were loaded when Myers came to the plate. Myers
took a 2-1 fastball deep to right-center field for a grand slam.
“I was sitting fastball,” Myers said. “I just got it up into the
jet streams. I didn’t hit it all that great I got enough of i t ”
The bomb came after Cal shortstop Jason Williams booted
a routine grounder that would have been the third out. Cal
was never even close after Myers’ homer.
‘I t was a real turning point” Murphy said. “That definitely
changed the game.”
Myers, the designated hitter on Sunday, also connected in
the ninth inning for a homer. This one was a two-run shot that
landed in nearly the same spot as his other home run. The
sophomore finished the day 3 for 5 with seven RBI.
Myers is starting to swing the bat more like he did last sea­
son, when he hit .386 with eight homers and 56 RBI. That
could mean a lot to ASU’s success.
“He struggled a little bit early, but it was coming, there’s
no question about it,” Murphy said.
Myers came in hitting .327 and he’s now hitting .351 with
four homers and 34 RBI.
‘I t ’s a real plus for our ballclub to have our four-hole hitter
swinging tiie bat the way he can,” Muiphy said.

Gymnasts lofty score not enough as ASU falls to Wildcats

By no means is it the end o f the world,
but it would have been nice for the ASU
gymnastics team to end its regular season
with a victory over its rival. D on’t expect
the Sun D evils to lose any sleep over it,
though, as their 195.950 score would have
won a meet on most nights.
It took the Wildcats greatest gymnastics

postseason hopes alive.
“It was senior night and the gymnasts
wanted to do well,” UofA head coach Bill
Rayden said. “At this p o int I feel very good
about our prospects for postseason action.”
The Sun Devils know they are already in
one o f the eig h t N CA A R egionals. T he
question now is which one. Before the meet
it looked as if ASU would travel to Penn

hurt its standing. The regional pairings will

N C A A C ham pionships before finishing
sixth in die nation.
A gainst the W ildcats on Friday, ASU
(10-5, 4-3 Pac-10) never led after falling
behind 48.7-48.375 after the first rotation.
UofA (11-8-1, 6-5-1) used season highs in
the vault (48.7), bars (49.375) and beam
(49.175) to defeat ASU. The Sun Devils
won the beam with an im pressive 49.450
and floor exercise (49.475).
Freshm an Rhonda Robinette shattered
her previous career high in the beam by

scoring a second-place 9.900, a great sign
for the Sun Devils as the post season looms.
Elizabeth McNabb tied Robinette’s 9.9 in
one of her strongest beam performances of
the season. Elizabeth Reid landed a season
best 9.95 in the floor exercise to win that
event while McNabb finished second with a
9.925. Wendy Ellsbeny led the Sun Devils
in the uneven bars by tying her career high
o f 9 .9 in a seco n d p la c e fin ish . K elly

star freshm an H ippensteel w ith his first
dual loss o f the season in straight sets 6-2,
6-3. Responding unfavorably to W illiams’
5-1 lead in the second set, Hippensteel, the
nation’s 15th-ranked singles player, grew
frustrated in a personal battle that ended in
a ball misconduct violation on match point,
giving the match to Williams.
With the match score tied at two apiece,
K lin g er gave the lead back to the Sun
Devils by defeating Scott 7-5, 6-3. Klinger
was happy with his performance following
the previous day’s loss against Cal.
“Yesterday (against Cal) I was some­
w here else,” K linger said. “I knew that
there was no way I was going to lose again,
and I kind o f blew him (Scott) away. It’s
kind of redemption.”
With a 3-2 lead, it came down to the top
courts for ASU to pull out one more win.

After dropping the first set tiebreaker 75, Marcaccio took-a 4-1 lead on Wolters in
the second. M omentum turned, however,
and Wolters was able to break twice, win­
ning five straight games, thereby defeating
Marcaccio 7-6, 6-4.
ASU was not as enthusiastic going into
the final matches. While the Stanford team
yelled and cheered at every hit its players
took, the Sun D evils seem ed to stare in
amazement as its early lead quickly dimin­
ished.
“It w asn’t like it was against UCLA,”
W illiams said. “W e ju st w eren’t as fired
up. Maybe we respected them a little too
much. We dominated in doubles and then
lost it all out here in singles.”
Despite the loss, the team made a defi­
nite im pression the C ardinal, who, until
this match, rarely had to come from behind
to win. With a 17-year winning streak over
ASU, Stanford is feeling the pressure o f a
potential loss in the near future.
“This is a great team ,” Gould said o f
ASU. “I’m not looking forward to playing
them again and can see this being the team
that could beat us at home this season.”
