Music and camping festival brings big bands and big crouds

The idea of sharing music with people we used to pay twenty dollars to see is a great honor.
Derek Hein
Big Metal Rooster bass player June 19 and continue until the early hours of the morning, Mosiman said. This is the second year of the annual event, and promoters are expecting to bring in 15,000 people a day from throughout the country. The promoters brought national attention to the event last year and this year by spending nearly half their budget on Internet advertisements and placing more than 30 box offices throughout the Midwest, Mosiman said. It was gratifying to say that our first year we were a national festival, Mosiman said. National attention also serves as an effective marketing tool for many of the local bands playing in the festival. Big Metal Rooster, a local band, played the festival last year and is on the bill

Musicians and fans from throughout the nation are anticipating the start of the Wakarusa Music Fest, which begins June 16, near the Clinton Lake campgrounds, and continues through the night of June 19. Tickets for the event have been on sale for months, and include three different pricing categories. A four-day pass costs $119, the weekend pass costs $75 and the single day pass costs $50, Brett Mosiman, director of the Wakarusa Music Fest, said. The single day and weekend passes will go up $10 if purchased after June 16. For the fan looking to save a buck, coupons are offered at all Lawrence Yellow Subs, 624 W. 12th St. and 1814 W. 23rd St., for $10 off the gate price. Parking and camping are included with the price of the ticket, Mosiman said. The gates will open to VIPs on June 15, for the general public gates open at 8 a.m. June 16. The music will begin around noon, Mosiman said, and will continue the first day until about midnight. Events will start at noon June 17 through

again this year. The national exposure from the concert helped the band tour around the nation, Derek Hein, bass player for Big Metal Rooster, said. This thing really came along right when we were trying to get to the echelon, Hein said. With more national exposure comes better headliners and a stronger lineup. This year the headliners are the String Cheese Incident, Wilco, Umphreys McGee and Govt Mule. These larger bands helped inspire many younger musicians, like Hein. The idea of sharing music with people we use to pay twenty dollars to see is a great honor, Hein said. But the stronger lineup is not the only part appreciated by the fans. The non-stop music for four days was appealing enough for

Jenny Hoyt, Topeka senior, to come back another year. She said the experience was memorable and planned on camping there for the entire four days, as well as being there for the first band tomorrow. Campers and other fans are allowed to bring their own food, but vendors will be on site to provide food and drink to all, Mosiman said. More than 25 food vendors of all varieties will be at the festival, as well as the sponsor of the event, Fat Tire.

Hoyt said last year she both brought food to the event and bought food at the event. We tried to bring enough for the entire weekend, but we also bought some food and beer, Hoyt said. It can get pretty expensive though. The festival will offer more options than it did last year, Mosiman said. The festival will offer more than 60 arts vendors, as well as entertainment options for children, Mosiman said. Edited by Erin M. Droste

Fraternity carries on after vandalism


By AdAm LAnd

aland@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER

Vandalism and chicanery have plagued the men of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity ever since they acquired their new house at 1111 W. 11th St. The fraternity, which is now on campus, has had two incidents involving vandalism to its new home or its possessions on the property. The first, and most destructive, incident came on May 13, Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Spokesman, said. Officers were called to the scene at 2:39 a.m. for a disturbance at the house. Once officers entered, they found the home had been damaged. Ceiling tiles and light fixtures were the main items damaged in the home, Ward said. Estimated damage from the vandalism was about $1,000. As police searched the home they encountered and arrested a 22-year-old man, and charged him with criminal damage, Ward said. During that same night police

were called back to the home at 3:42 a.m., Ward said. When police entered the home they found that damage had been done to the carpets and to the walls, Ward said. He said estimated damage to the carpets was about $50. Another 22-year-old man was arrested during the second call and was charged with criminal trespassing, because he was not found to have actually vandalized anything, Ward said. Police were still investigating the first case when the house suffered another bout of vandalism. On June 1, Tau Kappa Epsilon placed a new headstone, with its fraternity letters, outside of its new home. At approximately 3 a.m. June 10, the head stone was knocked over and spray-painted, Ward said. He said the police currently have no suspects. The letters spray painted on the headstone were that of the fraternity that used to inhabit the house, Phi Kappa Theta. Matt Moreno, Wichita junior and former Phi Kappa Theta

president, said the former fraternity and its members could not comment on the vandalism. Last semester, Phi Kappa Theta lost its charter for violation of Interfraternity Council rules. The fraternity conducted a party on campus and police were called to the home. The police confiscated 16 kegs. The fraternity faced sanctions from

the University and the Interfraternity Council, the governing body for sororities and fraternities, and some members faced criminal charges from local authorities. Although the vandalism was unexpected, it has not hindered the renovations Tau Kappa Epsilon planned for the house, Alex Plassmeyer, Stilwell junior

and president of Tau Kappa Epsilon, said. We have positive relations with the Phi Kappa Theta Board of Advisors, Plassymeyer said. We have moved on and look forward to the fall semester and many more to come at our new location on the hill. Edited by Erin M. Droste

Tuition bills increase; wallets shrink


By AdAm LAnd Although the increase could mean less money for students, some students understand that increases have to be made. Its too bad, but they have to have money to operate, Sarah Arbuthnot, Belleville graduate student, said. Arbuthnot pointed out paying may be a little easier for her because she worked for the University and received a discount rate. With the last increase the University gained an extra $16 million, splitting the money into three separate categories. The first category, which received $1.7 million, was student financial aid. The University has been able to offer financial help to students it could not have offered three years ago, Bretz said. The University has given financial assistance to 4,200 students this year, Bretz said. She said this assistance allowed it to retain much of its socioeconomic makeup. More than $8 million went into what the University calls tuition enhancement. The money was spent on new faculty, a raise for current faculty, a raise for GTAs, money for the libraries and raises for some non-faculty employees. The last category, maintenance costs, received $5.7 million for maintenance of buildings and grounds on campus. Although the increases mean students will spend more, they get to see the benefits of it, Bretz said.

aland@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER

Each year of the last three years, the University has raised tuition. The administration is seeking a fourth increase. The proposed increase came in May, as the fourth installment of the Universitys five-year tuition plan, said Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations. A decline in state funding during the past 15 years led the Board of Regents, the governing board for all state-sponsored schools, to ask the universities to come up with five-year plans to increase tuition. The University will know the Regents decision regarding the proposal by June 22 or 23. According to the Universitys Web site, tuition.ku.edu, tuition would rise to $22.05 an hour for Kansas resident undergraduate students, and $38.65 an hour for nonresident undergraduate students. With the increase in tuition, the average 15-hour semester for a resident would rise to $2,706, up from $2,368 the past year, approximately a 16 percent increase. Nonresident tuition would be $6,932, up from $6,346 the past year, approximately a 10 percent increase. The estimated total for a resident student, including room, board and other expenses, for one year would be $15,256. That would leave students with loan

debt of more than $60,000, assuming they graduate in four years. Fees will also go up $7.50, bringing the total required fees to $294.50. Graduate students will also feel the squeeze on their wallets. Costs for a resident graduate student would rise by

$23.65 per credit hour, an approximate 13 percent increase. For a nonresident graduate student it would rise $40.90, an approximately nine percent increase. The cost of tuition for resident graduate students would be raised by $291, and nonresident tuition would go up $499.

Student to be tried for trespassing


By Liz Nartowicz

lnartowicz@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER

Andrew Wymore, 2004 graduate, awaits his August trial after pleading innocent to criminal trespassing charges last Wednesday at the Columbia City Municipal Court in Columbia, Mo. Columbia Police Major Doug Schwandt arrested Wymore for unlawful re-entry into Mizzou Arena on March 9. Wymore, along with Chris Kaufman, 2005 graduate, was at Mizzou Arena for the MU-KU mens basketball game. Wymore Wymore rejected a plea bargain from the prosecutor, the details of which he would not reveal, at his appearance and had his charges lowered from criminal trespassing to a city ordinance violation. Schwandt escorted Wymore and Kaufman outside the arena after an argument between Kaufman and University of Missouri Police Chief Jack Watring. Kaufman and Watring were arguing about a 3-by-6-foot banner that Kaufman hung from a railing inside the arena. The banner read Allen Fieldhouse East. Although Kaufman had received permission from an usher to hang the banner, Watring started to remove the sign.

In his statement, Watring said he started to remove the sign because it was potentially troublesome. When Kaufman tried to stop Watring, Watring grabbed him by the collar, Kaufman said. Shortly afterward, Schwandt approached the scene and led the men outside where he told Wymore his ticket was revoked. Wymore said he was confused and wondered if he had purchased a false ticket. I asked him why and he just folded his arms and said It just has, Wymore said. Wymore said he then walked to the ticket office to buy another ticket with Schwandt with him for every step. After buying another ticket Wymore tried to reenter the arena. Before I even got my foot in the door he had me in handcuffs, Wymore said. Wymore spent the next half-hour in Boone County Jail before being bailed out by his friends. Captain Weimer, Schwandts supervisor, would not comment on the incident because charges were filed. Wymore will return to court on Aug. 3 and expects to be cleared of the charges. Any rational person who looks at the facts will come down on our side, Wymore said. If cleared, Wymore is considering filing a civil complaint against Schwandt. Wymore said he would appeal if found guilty. Edited by Erin M. Droste officer at MSU with a salary of $275,000, which is $95,000 more than he would have been making as dean of the college at the University of Kansas. Wilcox held the position as dean for nearly three years and said he was proud of his accomplishments. I think what I am most proud of is that all of us in the College have raised the visibility of the importance of the College, Wilcox said. There is a greater appreciation for the college and what it does for the University. Associate Dean Barbara Romzek has been named interim dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and will begin the position July 1. Romzek has held the position of associate dean since 2000 and currently is a professor of public administration. Although the opportunity is great, he is not leaving without regret, Wilcox said. I have loved my time here at the University, Wilcox said. Most of all Ill miss the students and the faculty. I have made some great friends and it will be hard to leave.

Author to speak despite threats


By AdAm LAnd
KANSAN STAFF WRITER

aland@kansan.com

For almost 10 years, author Salman Rushdie was afraid to leave his home because of a death threat placed on him by Islamic fundamentalists. After years of seclusion, with few public appearances, the worldrenowned author is coming to the University of Kansas on Oct. 6. The author had a fatwa, or death sentence, placed on him by Ayatollah Khomeini, the spiritual leader of Iran, in 1989. Protesters held demonstrations against Rushdie throughout the world. He went into hiding for 10 years, Victor Bailey, director of the Hall Center for the Humanities, said. He was afraid to walk out his front door. The authors speech, entitled Step Across the Line: An Evening with Salman Rushdie, will be at the Lied Center, 1600 Stewart Dr., and is sponsored by the Hall Center

for the Humanities. After the speech there will be a question and answer session, Bailey said. Rushdie was chosen because Rushdie of his literary works and because of his political activism, Bailey said. I wanted a speaker who wasnt just a novelist, Bailey said. But a person who had many other strong feelings of life. Rushdies strong feelings in his work have earned him accolades as well as enemies. His most famous work, The Satanic Verses, deals with a controversial story about the prophet Muhammad. The book received so much international attention because of its criticism of fundamentalist Islam, according to www.scholars. nus.edu. The book was banned in Rushdies home country of India, and throughout the Is-

ing for 10 years. He was afraid to walk out his front door.
Victor Bailey
Director of the Hall Center for the Humanities lamic world. The Ayatollah put a $1 million price on the assassination of Rushdie, and the bounty was to double by 1997, according to www.rotten.com/library. During this period he lived in safe house after safe house, aided by British authorities and police. Clerics throughout the world protested and even injured some of the publishers, harming Rushdies Norwegian publisher outside his home. The reward for his execution would grow to almost $3 million before 1998 when the Iranian government officially

He went into hid-

ended the fatwa. Lesser religious clerics still threaten the authors life, some offering monetary rewards for Rushdies assassination. Since the Iranian government lifted the fatwa, the author has come out of seclusion and has begun appearing in public again. His speech at the University will cover a series of articles he has published, called Step Across this Line, Bailey said. The topics range from articles about The Wizard of Oz, to the conflict between Pakistan and India. The diversity of his experience will make for an engaging evening, Bailey said. Rushdie does not just come from a western tradition, Bailey said. He comes from an eastern tradition also, and that blending makes him very interesting. The Hall Center for the Humanities is paying for the speech mostly with private donations, but SUA is also contributing to the cost, Bailey

Seven Jayhawks granted Fulbrights


The U.S. Student Fulbright Program awarded seven University of Kansas students and graduates Fulbright grants for study and research abroad for the 2005-06 academic year. The grants provide recipients funding for tuition,travel and other expenses for one academic year. This years winners are: Angela Gray, Sioux City, Iowa doctoral student; Michael Duane Johnson, Fallon, Nev., doctoral student; Ashleigh D. Klingman, 2005 Wichita graduate; Thomas D. Reid, 2004 Lenexa graduate; Amanda Elisabeth Rogers, 2005 Wichita graduate; Sarah Leanna Smiley, Lawrence doctoral student; and Emily Kristen Stewart, 2005 Kansas City, Mo., graduate. Smiley will use her grant to travel to Dar es Salaam,Tanzania, to research how popular media represent the citys diversity. Just to be able to do the work is amazing, Smiley said. Without funding like the Fulbright, theres no way Id ever be able to go.

Summer flick scheduled for outdoor showing


Student Union Activities will show Hitch as the summers feature show for the movie on the hill. Hitch will be run at 10 p.m. on June 17 at the bottom of the hill by Potter Lake, near the Campanile. We chose Hitch because it seemed like a fun summer flick that would reach a wide audience, Mary Garavaglia, summer coordinator for SUA, said. Hitch follows a professional matchmaker, played by Will Smith, whose program is threatened by a female journalist, played by Eva Mendes, who enrolls as a student and plans to publish an expos on his fraudulent methods, according to movies.yahoo.com. SUA will provide free Coke and prizes, based on a date night theme to go along with the movie, during the event including a $50 gift certificate to Tellers, 746 Massachusetts St., Garavaglia said.

The Visual Identity Committee has made its decision on a recommendation to Chancellor Robert Hemenway concerning the new logo that will represent the University of Kansas. The committee will make its recommendation to Hemenway when he returns from his trip abroad. Hemenway returns June 20, and the decision is ultimately up to him, so there wont be an announcement about which logo will be used until he gets back, David Johnston, director of marketing, said. Why does the University want a new logo? The main reason is to prevent all the different schools on campus from sending off different messages about the University. One allencompassing message will improve communication, Johnston said.

The committee gathered student, faculty, alumni and Internet feedback and found the two most prominent symbols currently associated with the University were the Jayhawk and the seal. What we found is that most people associate the Jayhawk with fun and athletics, while the seal is very formal, scholarly and confusing at the same time because it is in Latin, Johnston said. There is room for a third symbol that will represent academic stature in a friendly way. Four proposals are on the table for discussion. All of the logos are similar, each with the letters KU set in a different font. To vote for your favorite logo and give feedback on the issue, go to: http://www.ur.ku. edu/marketing/visual/feedback.shtml. The cost of getting a new logo will only affect the University short-term because only private funds are being utilized,

Johnston said. You have to look at the current spending in communications and their efforts, Johnston said. One message will make communication better and in the long run save the University money. The process of getting a new logo is part of a bigger project taking place at the University known as the KU Integrated Marketing Plan. The main goal of this project according to the KU Integrated Marketing Web site is To enhance the image, reputation and visibility of KU in the eyes of key constituents. The logo is just one aspect of the plan. The new logo will be implemented in the fall semester.

Wind ensemble tours, plays for World War II commemoration Story and photos by Kerri Henderson
Two weeks ago, I was walking past booths filled with everything from native musical instruments to tubs piled with turtles and painted chicks. Experiencing a Chinese marketplace as well as visiting the country itself were firsts for me and for the people walking with me. I was traveling with the KU Wind Ensemble, the premier wind band at the University, composed of about 60 members and directed by John Lynch. We were asked to play for a commemorative exhibition of the World War II Flying Tigers, an American volunteer group of fighter pilots who helped during that war. Our trip lasted from May 26 to June 7 and included five performances in three cities: Chengdu, Kunming and Shenyang. Our first performance started out a bit unnervingly. After driving down a dirt road for what seemed to be an eternity, we ended up in a building resembling a hangar. Once inside, we couldnt shake the feeling that at any point they were going to slam all the doors shut, turn off the lights and hold us hostage. We later found out this couldnt have been farther from the truth, and rough dirt roads like the one we traveled on are commonplace outside the major cities. The audience gave us a warm welcome and we surprised them halfway through our performance by changing into authentic Flying Tigers outfits, which were custom-tailored to each individual ensemble member. The costumes turned out to be a huge crowd pleaser. Even more than the toilet paper deficit or the fun of waiting for my boiled water to cool enough to drink, I will always remember the good hospitality in China. In Chengdu and Kunming, we were greeted at the airport with signs reading Welcome American Friends. Our tour guides, many of whom were local volunteer university students, were always eager to help us in any way they could. Their pride in their country and heritage was evident in their speech. After five performances, lots of sightseeing and plenty of late nights, we were all ready for the trip to come to an end. I feel that I gained a lot both in life experiences and forming friendships with the talented members of our ensemble. If its possible, I will miss China but appreciate America even more, all for the same reasons. I learned in China that after climbing up hundreds of steps at the Great Wall, its just as difficult if not more so to climb down, considering the Jell-O-like state of your legs. I learned that you could become skinny pretty fast if you plan to be a vegetarian in China, since even the tofu dishes are sprinkled with tiny slivers of chicken. Sometimes, if youre not sure what kind of meat or vegetable is on your plate, you just have to bite into it and hope for the best. I discovered repeatedly that it is possible to get a decent -liter of beer for about 30 cents, and an entire case for about $4. Above all else, I learned on this trip that you should never go to China without Immodium AD, but always go expecting friendly people and crowds that love to clap to a good march.

Irritating bugs thrive after rains


By Liz Nartowicz

dont get bitten!


Helpful tips to avoid mosquitoes: F Remove all standing water when possible. This includes clogged gutters, pool covers and any rain-filled containers left outside. F Make sure doors and windows have tight-fitting screens without holes. F Wear long sleeves, pants, socks and closed shoes when outdoors. Wear mosquito repellents on exposed skin. F Avoid prime mosquito locations such as marshes or wetlands and encourage local officials to treat small ponds with larvicide. F Clean and chlorinate swimming pools, outdoor saunas and hot tubs. Keep them covered when they arent in use.

As children and adults alike welcome the summer season filled with tan lines and barbecues, they also greet the notorious picnic crashers known as mosquitoes. Common to the summer scene, mosquitoes may be in full force this year because of the large amount of rain. An employee at First Med, 2323 Ridge Ct., said she could not release patient records, but said the increase in allergic reactions to mosquito stings was apparent, especially in children. Mosquitoes thrive near areas of standing water where they lay their eggs. Any extra, neglected puddles lying around could increase their numbers. Besides the annoyance of additional stings mosquitoes sting, they do not bite the possible rise in mosquitoes can be a threat to ones health. Mosquito stings can cause severe allergic reactions and transmit a variety of diseases, including the West Nile Virus. It is important to know the difference between a regular sting and an allergic reaction to a sting so that you can get medical help, said physician Ron Weiner, asthma and allergy specialist for Lawrence Memorial Hospital. In Kansas, the worrisome insects are bees, wasps, white hornets, yellow jacket hornets and mosquitoes, said Weiner. A normal reaction from the stings of these insects involves the expected symptom of an uncomfortable, itchy rash. The rash is a result from the proteins in the insects venom Weiner said. Swelling, tenderness and pain is common and expected with a sting, Weiner said. This is not an allergic reaction. It is when the rash spreads from one joint to the next that there is a problem. A rash normally stays within the span of a quarter surrounding the point of entry. It is when this rash becomes larger, painful to the touch, heated or raised significantly that an allergic reaction has occurred, Weiner said. The cause of an al-

lergic reaction is a bodys overproduction of antihistamines. The body produces antihistamines after being stung to fight against the insects venom. If experiencing an allergic reaction, the infected person should seek medical attention immediately. If left untreated, the venom could spread to the heart or lungs and be fatal, Weiner said. Another important reason to seek medical attention from a troublesome sting is to rule out diseases such as West Nile Virus. Although rare, cases of West Nile Virus have appeared in Kansas. According to the Centers for Disease Control Web site, www.cdc.gov, 91 human cases, four resulted in death, were reported in 2003. Forty-three human cases were reported in 2004; two resulted in deaths. Currently, no cases have been reported for this year. Edited by Erin M. Droste

A couple of young boys enjoy an evening swim at Clinton Lake. The swimming beach at Bloomington Park East was completely submerged due to heavy rain.

In the interim, the editors will provide the questions. The student whose name is cited below is not an actual student.
admitted to taking the plunge sometime last week after closing time. It was really exciting, he said, except then my dumbass friend left his sandals in there, so we had to go in twice, which made me pretty nervous. If you like to get off the beaten path, another option is to go explore the sand beaches of Clinton Lake. These beaches are not patrolled by life guards and you can swim at night, but only at your own risk. One of my favorite activities in the world is to float out there on an inflatable raft with a book (kept safe in a ziplock bag). The beach on the Wakarusa Fest side of the lake, once known as Lake Henry, was a mecca for nude swimming during the 60s. Unfortunately, nowadays, all nude swimming around Lawrence is prohibited. Still, the beach offers a quiet little nook amidst the beautiful wild state-park landscape. If you want, you can enter the park near the visitor center and take the bike trails all the way to the beach and avoid the $6.50 camping entrance fee. There is also a larger beach on the opposite side of the lake near the town of Clinton. This beach, at Bloomington Park, costs only a dollar (self-pay). Unfortunately, because of all of the recent rain, the water level is up 10 feet and both beaches are submerged. But be patient. David Rhodes, Clinton Lake park manager, said the beaches should be reopened in a couple weeks. Happy swimming, Mr. College Answer Person

Dear Mr. College Answer Person, Its hot around here during the summer. Tell me, where are the best places to cool off and take a dip?
Dave, Sophomore Dear Dave, I believe the most convenient place to go swimming throughout Lawrence is at the local apartment complexes. Jefferson Commons, 2511 W 31st St., and Colony Woods Apartments, 1301 W 24th, are a couple to get you started. Even if you dont have a friend living in one, the security people are rarely snoopy or crosswise. Those who choose to respect the pool and its rules seldom run into trouble. The Lawrence public pool is the other best bet. During the day, these waters are full of children, and things get a bit iffy when they blow the turd whistle. That being said, its downtown location is pretty sweet, and it does offer diving boards. Mr. College Answer Person does not advise trying this, but he has heard of people taking the after-bar plunge off of the high-dive. Patrick House, Prairie Village senior,

Jackson also was charged with providing the boy with wine and conspiring with members of his inner circle to hold the accuser and his family captive to get them to rebut a damaging documentary. After the verdict, a weary Jackson retreated to Neverland where, according to his family, he went straight to bed.

By Ashley MichAels pionships since Head Coach Stanley Redwine arrived at the University. The first two days of the Championships were spent in the preliminary rounds to determine which athletes would move on to the finals. Five athletes from the KU track team qualified for the finals. The entire meet was great overall, there were good performances in all the events, said senior middle distance runner Mims. It was exciting to see some of the top athletes in the nation compete and be there when collegiate records were broken by people that I knew or had competed against. Mims qualified for the finals in the 800-meter run. He finished 4th overall with a time of 1:45.86. This time is a personal best for Mims and the second best time in KU school history. It was a little disappointing for me personally, Mims said. Coach and I had a great strategy for me to win the race and I feel like I let him down, but it was a great experience anyway. Junior thrower Battle qualified for the finals in both the shotput and discus throw. He placed 2nd in the shotput with a throw of 66-07 1/4, and 11th in the discus throw. Battle competed in three separate events at the NCAA Championships. He also placed 16th in the hammer throw preliminaries with a throw of 199-05. Both women pole vaulters who qualified for the NCAA Championships also made it to the finals. Senior pole vaulter Lennin placed 3rd overall, setting a new school record with a height of 14-01 1/4, and freshman Ekaterina Sultanova took 7th place. Senior Brooklyn Hann made it to the finals in triple jump, placing 8th in the competition. Other notable performances include freshman Julius Jiles, who ended his freshman career Wednesday with an 11th-place finish in the 110 meter hurdles.

Four Jayhawks were selected in the 2005 Major League Baseball amateur draft. Junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke, senior catcher Sean Richardson, junior outfielder Gus Milner and senior lefthanded pitcher Mike Zagurski were all drafted last week. Kansas coach Ritch Price said he was thrilled for the two seniors, but it would be devastating to lose the two juniors. Zagurski was selected in the 12th round by the Philadelphia Phillies. He was the 367th overall pick. Zagurski posted an 8-5 record, a 4.95 ERA and broke the Universitys all-time single season strikeout record with 112 batters, all in the 2005 season. Richardson was selected in the 19th round by the Minnesota Twins as the 585th overall pick. Richardson had a .317 batting average, 34 doubles, 18 home runs and 114 RBI during his two seasons with the Jayhawks. Van Slyke was selected in the 23rd

Jeremiah Creswell faces assault charges unrelated to Giddens


A man reportedly involved in an incident also said to involve junior forward J.R. Giddens appeared before the Johnson District County Court on Monday charged with two felony counts of aggravated assault in an apparently unrelated matter. According to the Lawrence Journal-World, Jeremiah Creswell, 24, was arrested for threatening his mother, Beverly Creswell, and uncle, Randall Wilson, with a steak knife. The Kansan previously reported that Giddens suffered a sliced artery in his right calf during a fight in the parking lot of the Moon Bar, 821 Iowa St., on May 19, according to Lawrence police. Witnesses said Giddens, along with ten other men, attacked Giddens after the bar had closed. According to the Kansas City Star, Creswell cut Giddens with a four-inch knife. In the latest incident, Creswell appeared before the Johnson County court via video from the Johnson County Adult Detention Facility. Magistrate James Phelan set Creswells bond at $50,000 and ordered him not to contact his mother, his uncle or three other family members, according to the Lawrence Journal-World. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for June 23. A court-appointed lawyer will represent Creswell, who faces up to 42 months in prison if found guilty, according to the Kansas City Star. Creswell is also set to appear June 27 at the Topeka Municipal Court on separate charges. After he failed to appear in court last September, Topeka police issued a warrant for his arrest. Creswell was charged with criminal property damages, interfering with an officer and disobeying a lawful order.

MLB drafts basketball recruit


With the 17th pick in the 2005 Major League Baseball Draft, the New York Yankees selected C.J. Henry of Putnam City High School in Oklahoma. Henry previously told Kansas basketball coach Bill Self he would walk on to the Kansas basketball team if he were to play basketball anywhere. Henry, a highly regarded basketball recruit, Henry two times all-State, is the son of two former Jayhawks, Carl Henry and Barbara Adkins. His selection in the first round virtually guarantees Henry a multimillion dollar contract, including a signing bonus. Stephen Drew, who was selected 12th overall last season, recently signed a contract, ending what had been a record-long hold out. His contract included a $4 million signing bonus and guaranteed him at least $5.5 million over four years, Baseball America reported on its Web site. Henry previously suggested he would like to play basketball even if drafted. Most baseball analysts believe it highly unlikely any front office would allow such a highly touted prospect to play another sport.
