Engineering School revamps Towne and Moore buildings
By San Post TTw lisih INiawihaiiaii
Although many students may not take notice of the recent renovations to the Towne and Moore buildings, the School of Engineering and Ap plied Science made many behind the scenes improvements to the buildings over the summer
"Many changes are transparent to the students," Engineering School Facilities Manager Pat Pancoast said. "They only notice when things are not working."
Among the changes made to the Towne budding M the installation of a new air conditioner, lights and smoke detectors, replacement of 99 percent of the windows and im provements to the building's telecom- munications systems
For Moore, the school purchased 25 new color computers for room 109. the site of the freshman introductory course Consumer Science Kngi-
neering 120 The changes are part of ongoing
restorations to the Engineering cam- pus. Towne received a massive facelift and the Moore library saw the installation of new shelving light ing and paint prior to the ENIAC an- niversary in February 1996
Additionally, last year the Provost's Classroom Facilities Review Com mittee oversaw renovations to 10 Towne and five Moore classrooms
The Towne Building, built in 1906. was in dire need of renovations. F^ui i o.i.st said
"The existing air conditioner was '20 years old and dying and only .served the marble corridors she said. And the windows were origi nal to the building and were in very bad shape"
Keplacing the windows was slightly more complicated than ong inally thought Since Towne is among the University's historical
buildings, the Engineering School was required to first consult with the Pennsylvania Historical Com mission.
"The Commission has to approve any changes on the outside of the building that are viewable by the pub- lic." Pancoast said.
This process is part of a joint effort by the University and the State of Pennsylvania to uphold the campus' historical appearance.
"We believe the building is now a combination of new and old," Direc tor of Computing and Educational Technology Services Helen Ander son said. The character of the build ing has not been lost."
The windows facing 33rd Street were also insulated to limit the noise from pedestrians and passing cars. Pancoast said

And now we invite you to join one of the largest and most respected student organizations on Penn's campus. And while most people think of a newspaper being staffed by reporters, photographers and editors, well show you all that the "other side" of the newspaper business has to offer.
The Daily Pennsylvanian provides an intensive training program that involves all business staff members in the day-to-day operations of the corporation. Well show you how to run a spreadsheet, make a sales call, and design a market survey. Well teach you to use state-of-the-art computers and business systems. Well help you to interact professionally with the real business clients who depend on The Daily Pennsylvanian to reach the Penn student and faculty market.
Well give you the sort of background that has helped hundreds of our alumni get started in business, advertising, publishing, sales, and marketing careers.
And well introduce you to some of the most interesting and motivated people on campus.

however, had not been tallied by the end of last week due to computer glitches. Jacobs said.
Dining Services Director Bill Can- ney refused to estimate the number of students signed up for or attending weekend meals, describing such tal lies as premature
According to some students, the number of weekend meal plan par ticipants will be getting smaller, rather than larger.
Many freshmen at Stouffer Com- mons dinner last night said they will drop out of weekend meal plans as soon they can According to Dining Services policy, students must wait until October 6 to alter meal plans and pay a $30 fee
Wharton freshman l-ouisa Lee dis cussed her weekend dining contract with friend's over a Stouffer maca roni and cheese dinner
"I am on the silver 114 meal I plan. which is a mistake." Lee said
And Wharton freshman Sarah I lood.stine agreed that "most of us are thinking of dropping it."
Throughout the sparsely populated dining hall, most freshmen said they had already researched Dining Scr vices policies for meal plan changes and resigned themselves to eating 14 or 19 meals a week until October.
Several freshman explained that they had signed up for weekend meals because they or their par ents — were nervous about fending for themselves
Josh Kuntz. a Wharton freshman who said he will probably switch off the weekend meal plan, said his moth er was "afraid I wasn't going to eat."
College freshman Alexis McBride said she didn't want to worry where my meals where coming from." adding that she was also consider ing changing her meal contract
Kchoing what could be described as the freshman refrain. Lee ex plained that she simply "didn't know any better "
Rut Canney said he is not surprised by the possibility of turnover among the freshman
"People always may have second thoughts when they sign up for any plan, especially if it's freshmen we are talking about." Canney said "They are not quite sure what's in store for them when they get on campus."
Canney added that as the program becomes more established he expects more uppcTclassmen will sign up.
"We're doing this because the stu dents asked for it." he said. "This pro vides a convenience for students who are on campus, it provides an oppor tunity for them to dine in a safe envi ronment.
ProceduraUy. meals went smooth ly, according to Canney, except for problems with the new IVnnCards. which continue to overload Dining Hall card readers

Zeta Day '97 fosters interaction among African American Greeks
By Karen Lenar TWO**/ IVMHyKlHM
Throngs of students from through out the region converged on Su l>erblock Saturday to participate in the eighth annual Zeta Phi Beta cel- ebration an event that featured music, dancing and interaction among the African American Greek community
Zeta Day began in fall 1990 to ex pose the I'IIIVITMIV community to African American Greek life, as well as to kick off the new school year and welcome freshmen to campus
On Saturday, about 10 groups per formed in the celebration's step show, a synchronized dancing performance A disc jockey also played rap songs ihroughout the day, helping to cre- ate a relaxed atmosphere-
Hals, backpacks, shirts and other items bearing the insignias of various i Ireek organizations were sold at nearby tables The Superblock cele bration was followed by a party at Houston Hall Saturday night
('ollege senior Tiffany Hodge, pres- ident of Mu lota, the IVnn chapter of Zeta I*hi Beta Sorority. Inc . said she was "really excited and happy that to day's event was well attended." but said she didn't know exactly how many people attended thus year's event
Last year's event attracted ap proxmi.iteh L!."»0 people
In addition to several of Penn's African American fraternities and sororities, many Greeks attended the event from other area schools I^arry Banks, a Drexel t niversity junior and MicmlHTof ihcDrexcl chapter of lota Phi Theta Fraternity. Inc.. noted that this was Ihe first year his fraternity was invited to the IVnn campus eel ebration
Iota I "hi Theta which was found
"We broke tradition and stepped here today."
Larry Banks 111 Inivcrsitv junior
ed in 1963 at Morgan State Unrversi ty, a historically African American college near Baltimore currently has chapters at Drexel and Temple universities, but not at I Vnn
Banks noted that his organization's motto is building a tradition and not resting upon one
"We broke tradition and stepped here today." he said.
During the celebration. Hodge called on all the fraternities and sororities to "give a shout out" over the microphone to their fellow Greek members.
College senior Aria Anderson, president of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. Inc - one of the four soror ities present — said Zeta Day achieved its goals of representing Greek life around Penn and display ing the "unity among black Greeks."
She stressed that although the Penn chapter of Delta Sigma Theta boasts only two members, the sorority has about 200.000 members nationwide

Students, area residents may 'Get to Know Their Neighbors'

By Lindsay raber T>»i>M»r )t
In the latest effort to help Uni versity students and West Philadel phia residents mesh together, several Penn and community orga nizations are working on a series of "Getting to Know Your Neighbor" receptions.
The program is designed to ex .iiiiini' student interaction with the surrounding area, under the as- sumption that as students and com munity residents get to know each other personally, they will be more likfly to treat each other with re sped.
Representatives from the Univer sity's Program for Student C'ommu nity Involvement and the Undergraduate Assembly have been meeting with members of the Spruce Hill Community Association to plan the receptions
Office of Community Relations I >i rector Glenn Bryan said residents often feel animosity toward students because of the excessive amounts of noise, partying and trash they bring to me neighborhood
" (University students are] all ingrained with this'Don't go past 40th Street* garbage."
Hillary Aiseixsit'in (nllrgrliuiKii
"Residents have been annoyed, an gered and insulted by students' par ties, but the residents and students have never even met each other." Bryan said

College junior, added that 'if students had a better relationship with the res idents. maybe they wouldn't throw beer cans all over the place."
Bryan said the receptions "would benefit students by giving them an idea of what it's like living in West [■hilly and would also give residents on idea of what it's like to be a student living off campus.''
Bryan noted that if students and residents were to establish a friend ly relationship at the onset of the aca- demic year, students would be less likely to deface their neighbors' prop erty during parties.
"We're not going to be discipline lans. but we're just trying to facili- tate interaction between students and residents." he said.
The project hopes to create such interaction while students are still settling into the neighborhood in or der "to establish a welcoming com mittee for everyone living in the area." Bilenker said.
He added that "there are target blocks which may be a little loud" — such as Beige Block. Pine, Delancey, Spruce and Walnut streets.
Bilenker and College junior Hillary Aisenstein worked closely with the < iffice of Community Relations to de- velop a brochure — directed toward students living off campus — featur ing tips on how to be a responsible neighbor
Aisenstein said several West Philadelphia residents expressed interest in handing the brochures out to the students, as part of an ef fort to meet the students Irving in the area.
She stressed the project was de- signed to take "the proactive ap- proach" to alleviate hostility between students and area residents.
•We're all ingrained with this Don't go past 40th Street' garbage." Aisen stein said
Bilenker added that several resi dents who had introduced them selves to their neighbors last year had succeeded in developing positive relationships.
"I Residents I used to completely resent students, and now some of them have students house-sit for them, fix their computers or take in their mail while they're away." he S.lUl

Jacobowitz settles suit withPenn JACOBOWITZ from page Al
Jenkins, Ayanna Taylor. Nikki Taylor and Denita Thomas — charged Ja- cobowitz with violating the code, which broadly bans racist behavior.
The phrase "water buffalo" is a rough translation of a Hebrew word meaning a foolish person, maintained Jacobowitz, who was born in Israel and whose native language is Hebrew
In 1994. an internal University in vestigation into the incident, as well its handling by the Judicial Inquiry Office, said Penn treated the women unfairly But the ACLU said at the time that the report displayed igno- rance of due process and law
Then College freshman Christo pher Pryor, Jacobowitz's roommate, was also investigated by the JIO for telling the same women to "get your fat asses out of here."
Sheldon Hackney, who was Uni- versity president at the time of the in- cident, said yesterday that he was unfairly criticized for not stepping in to defend Jacobowitz during the ju dicial proceedings
"The way that the disciplinary sys- tem was set up then, neither the pres ident nor the provost had any role in it." said Hackney, who returned this semester to teach in the University's History Department after a four year stint heading the National Endow ment for the Humanities in Washing ton "Looking back, I don't see that I could have done anything differently."
At his NEH confirmation hearings before a U.S Senate panel. Hackney admitted that the charges against Jacobowitz wen- an "error"
It was absurd." Kors said "IJa- cobowitzl shouted a word that had no racial connotations, and he did it to express his disapproval of noise, and the already horrible speech code didn't criminalize any of that."
The "water buffalo" case — which brought Penn national infamy — was n't the only one in the 1993 spring se mester that exacerbated racial tensions around campus On April 15, a group of African American stu- dents stole The Daily Pmnsylvan urn's almost entire press run of 14.000 copies to protest alleged racism by the DP and the University
Hackney — a reputed free speech advocate — criticized the students actions at the time but didn't label them a crime or theft.
Jacobowitz's lawsuit was dismissed on August 19 with prejudice which means neither Jacobowitz nor the l.'m versity can file another suit in the case
"It was time to move on, because this whole thing was just making me sick." Jacobowitz said. "The money paled in comparison to the emotion al distress that this case caused over the last five years."
Jacobowitz said he'll "definitely consider" practicing First Amend ment law as a result of his experi- ence with the case and dealing with Kors and the ACLU.
None of the five women — who graduated in 1993 and 1994 - could be reached for comment last night
Daily Pennsylvaman staff writer Randi Rothberg contributed to this report

food from Dining Services In addition, both Price and student
coordinator and College junior Adil Ali emphasized that all lines of com munication — among students, agen cies, residential advisors and University community groups — worked better than in years past.
We really tried to emphasize com m unity partkapation and get the agen cies to include regular volunteers to make it seem like a joint effort." said Price, who also noted that several res- idential advisors had akeady expressed the desire to follow through with future hall-based community service events
"As a one-day event, it serves a lot of purposes — introducing neigh borhoods and community agencies, and also as a whole bonding expert ence." Grossman said
But beyond the events of the day. Grossman and Price hoped the dear IT lines of communication and several changes — including fewer cleanup sites at this year's event and a listserv for interested students along with annual events like this Wednesday's volunteer Fan- on Locust WWk—would encourage students to make commu- nity service more habitual Grossman also noted that the University has more courses involving community service than any other he knew ot
"I'm not sure that you would speak to representatives at any urban uni versity that would say their relation ship with their community is peachy-keen." he said. "(But there are thingsl they can do to build bridges of understanding."

Speed up the SAS dean search Scheduling delays during the summer have kept the SAS search committee from choosing a new dean for the school.
Classes resumed last week, but the School of Arts and Sciences does not have a new dean.
And while the SAS search committee is prob- ably carefully examining each candidate, they sim ply need to do so a little faster.
When former Dean Rosemary Stevens stepped down last Septem ber. a new dean was ex- pected to be in place by this summer.
However, scheduling conflicts during the sum- mer slowed the search. But now that the fall se- mester is in full force, the committee should meet regularly and often in or- der to choose a candidate.
Even though the slow dean search is not explicit- ly hurting the school, it can't be beneficial not to have a permanent leader. And the lack of an SAS dean is holding up the ap- pointment of a new Col-
lege head. The school has several
issues it needs to resolve and while an interim dean is at the helm, significant work on the budget deficit and goals in the Agenda for Excellence are pro- gressing slowly.
A new dean would be able to better shape the di- rection of where the school is going under the University's long-term plan whether that per- son is from Penn or from another institution.
It is also not fair to Inter im SAS Dean Walter Wales or to current College Dean Robert Rescorla to keep them in their current posi- tions when they want to return to teaching. Both are excellent professors — Wales in physics and Kesiorla in psychology — who had hoped to be in the classroom this semester.
It is important the SAS search committee choose the right dean to succeed Stevens and not let this search drag on for another year.
But for now. the school will remain without two of its top administrators, and students can only hope that appointments will be made soon.

Create a food vending zone
Eric Goldstein Upon Further ft .,.v.
Penn and Orexel are separat ed by one city block Hut cross the north-south border that is Chestnut Street, and
you won't even recognize the Drexel campus as part of West Philadelphia
Why" No shiny metallic push carts hawking cheesestcaks. soft pretzels and $ 1 50 bottles of Snapple. No run down trucks with menus advertising a dozen different varieties of lo mem And no sidewalk tables selling "au- thentic" Ray Ran sunglasses and
bootleg copies of Hie Lost Hbrld Jurassic l\irk.
The food truck and side walk vendor which have tak- en over any and every available square foot of land on and around Penn's campus - are an endangered species just one block away.
The reason is an ordinance
restricting the areas where vendors ■ an set up IIMKI trucks and sidewalk tables In order to secure a space in Drexel's authorized zone on 32nd Street between Market and Chest nut streets, vendors must pay an an nual $3,000 fee Vending is prohibited throughout the rest ol Hie campus
Many Penn students rely on area food trucks for daily meals, fresh fruit or an early morning cup o( coffee Rut the current anarchist, park where you want freedom allowed to vendors must be re examined
As it stands, food trucks and sick- walk vendors are eyesores for many who live, work or study in the are*. As t niversity I'resident Judith Kodin and Executive Vice President John ri-y strive toward a University City renaissance, characterized by thriv- ing retail shops and restaurants the abundance of food trucks dotting our campus can only turn off pmspcci ivc local investors
On an everyday level, food trucks monopolize the precious little parking
v available within walking di.s tance of University buildings. Al- though the local traffic code states that vehicles may not remain in a space past the meters s|>ccifio<| tune capacity the Philadelphia Parking Authority lias not enforced the rule rim Uic early 1980s. As long M the trucks put coins in the meters, the l'P\ ignores them
Rut Richard Dickson. the PPA di rector of regulations and public ser vice told 77ie Daily fViiuvj/feuniari last year it is not uncommon for local vendors to jam the meters so as to avoid paying the SI per hour fare.
"It's prevalent everywhere then- are vendors." Dickson said
One other consideration is the pos sible physical hazard many of the trucks pose Vehicles with propane tanks and generators could possibly threaten the safety of the loyal cus- tomers who patronize them and any one else who happens to be within
exploding distance Although there have been no recent injuries as a re suit of the propane tanks, there was an incident a year ago when a gen crator caught flame at 36th and Wal nut streets Luckily, no one was injured
In addition, at least four students have been mugged by criminals who have used parked bod trucks as shields from nighttime passers by. according to Carol Schcman. vice president for government, commu nity and public affairs
And try crossing the street at the corner of 34th and Walnut streets The parked trucks along the street make it virtually impossible for pedestrians to see oncoming traffic before it is too late.
The solution may lie in a proposed plan, supported by University officials and City Coumilperson Jannie Rlack wel. that would create specified vend ing zones, similar to the one at Drexel
According to Rlackwell's proposed ordinance, three zones would be en' aled - one each on 34th. Spruce and Walnut streets Scheman has said the University would provide about 16 on-campus spaces and another 75 off-campus spaces for vendors The
The current anarchist, park-where-you-want freedom allowed to vendors must be re-examined.
plan would provide spaces for each of the 90 some food trucks that cur rently call IVnn home
In addition, a number of "fresh air food plazas" are in the works. At these plazas, vendors will be provid- ed with running water electrical hook-ups and garbage removal. The University would also provide out door seating for the trucks' patrons, creating a sort of outdoor food court The cost to the vendors $60 for a five year lease
While a number of vendors and food truck regulars have objected to the proposed plan, many of their crit icisms have been based on false pre- sumptions At the groundbreaking of the Sansom Common retail complex, members of the IVnn Consumer AI liance staged a protest, chanting
MktlMtam The Da* PtmwfiMnm
Save the trucks!"
What the protesters continue tn ignore is the fact that the proposed plan docs not stipulate a decrease in the number of vendors The plan
- niilv to better organize the vending operations so as to best MT\C the interests of University City
The vendors paranoia is under standable given their past expert lines with city ordinances. In recent years, vending has been banned or
ii-lv regulated in Center City. Maiiayunk. the South Street area and North Philadelphia around Temple I niversity
If Rodin and Fry are to have any chance al iraiislorming I'nivcrsiU ( 'ity into a thriving district with qual ity stores, diverse restaurants and a vibrant nightlife, they must first re solve the state of vending on and around campus
The alternative is the status quo And that is just not acceptable

The daily-pleasantries of Locust Walk S chool has been back in session for a week
now, and with the new year has come a new pack of freshmen, flooding their ways onto 1-ocu.st Walk And it seems like some
one should warn them The Walk is not just a really long hallway be
tween Psych 001 and Knglish 014. it's a social en vi run ment with its own set of quirks and rules that we'd all do best to keep in mind
Andrew Melbourne Guest Columnist
I Vrhaps the most important thing to be aware of when walking the Walk is what your "visual range" is Visual range is the distance at which you first rec ognize people passing by you on the Walk. Some people will recognize their friends and classmates from a dozen yards away, others can't spot their roommate until they're right on top of them Being aware of your own visual range especially as relative to most other people you know will make communication on the Walk much easier.
It's going to be most people's first instinct to say "hello" to friends and acquaintances as soon as they see them that is, as soon as they enter visual range This is a mistake' Since two people's visual ranges will rarely match up. anyone who attempts an immediate "hello" is likely to be met with silence and a blank expression.
Remember. Locust Walk is a busy, often noisy place, and someone saying "hello" isn't always go- ing to be enough to draw another's attention A missed "hello" can cause all sorts of trouble.
So given this, what's an extroverted freshman lo
The best solution is what I call "scoping for range." Essentially, you have to keep labs on ap proaching acquaintances as they make their ways down I^ocust Walk. As you enter their visual range, the two of you should have an instant lock, be able to exchange your salutations and move on.
Naturally, you can also stop and talk. Rut the rule of thumb is. if you do. you should probably move to the side of the Walk. Chatty freshman are the No. 3 annoyance when navigating the Walk, right be.and bicyclists and pigeons.
While not hearing someone when they say "hel lo" could lead to friction later on, it's far more trou blesome to find a greeting you've given has missed its target and fount' another. It's been known to happen that an overly anxious freshman has said
"hello" without first scoping for range and has mined his or her intended target, greeting some one else entirely Perhaps a fellow classmate per haps someone they met at a party or a floor event — an acquaintance, barely - but hardly some one that they'd put on their hello" list
Now, we all have our "hello'' lists There are people we will pass and say hello" to and others that we wont, people we will bother to scope for and others who aren't worth the effort Rut a missed "hello" that reaches someone off the list may have the unfortunate effect of convincing them they are actually on the list leading to forced greeting after forced greeting. And that can onlylca<i to bitterness and hostility
A missed "hello" will almost always result in something called "'hello' degeneration." but this process can even occur with people who are on each other's "hello" list.
If two people pass each other on the Walk too of ten — based mostly on how well they know each oth- er — they will find it harder and harder to put the proper enthusiasm into each successive greeting.
"Hello. Jack!" Then, "Hi. Jack'" Then. "Hey" Then a gruntor a nod Then nothing. As the greet ings shorten, the two will almost certainly find
"bw 0—> P»«»>l.«nif
trouble interacting outside the Walk environment Resentment will increase as the two slide oft* each other's "hello" lists till the two are at best virtual strangers, or at worst bitter annoyances.
The best way lo avoid "hello" degeneration is to spot it in its earn stages, before it begins to impact on the relationship whatever that might be. and agree to use some simple, recognizable gesture to acknowledge each other's passing. I recommend a solid nod and a bright smile. In the past, I've bi-en known to use a rather endearing grunt. Ul timately. it's best to use whatever comes easiest to you.
As a last tip. never use "How's it going?" as a greeting Too often on the Walk, the person you're saying "hello" to will already be past you and gone by the time they get a chance to reply. "How's it go tag?" is a question, and unless you're in a situation where the other person has the opportunity to re spond. you shouldn't bother asking
Hopefully. I've been able to save a few lives here or at least a few egoe IH see you on the Walk and
remember to say "hello "

Former Zairian leader Mobutu dies Mobutu Sese Seko, who was overthrown from war-stricken Zaire in May, died at the age of 66.
IIABAT. Morocco Mobutu Sese Seko. the Zairian leader toppled in May after nearly 32 years of auto- cratic rule that left his country in shambles, died yesterday. He was 66
Mobutu, who for decades was a strong anti communist ally of the I nited States in Africa, died of prostate i.imrr at the Mohamed V military hospital in Rabat, said two hospital workers who spoke on con- dition ut aiioiivnilty

A family member in Kinshasa, cap- ital of Congo, said Mobutu had in- formed his family he wanted to be cremated and have his ashes scat tered over his old country.
In Congo, there was no immediate mention of Mobutu's death on either radio or TV
Mobutu arrived in Morocco May 23. after searching for a country that would take him King Hassan II agreed to host him for a "few days," but the deposed leader ended up stay ing over three months
He had wanted to return to his Krench Riviera villa, but like many other countries. France refused him entry The French Foreign Ministry said yesterday night it would have no official reaction until today.

Mobutu was out of Zaire during most of the rebel advance, recovering from cancer surgery in his palatial homes in Switzerland and the south of France.
When he finally gave up power in May, he cited only health reasons, ig- noring the growing ranks of opposi tion that had undermined his rule
Mobutu was the last of Africa's Cold War relics, an autocrat in a leop ard skin hat who lived like a king while leading his potentially magnif icent country down a ruinous path
The former Joseph Desire Mobu tu seized power in a military coup Nov. 24,1965. five years after the min- eral-blessed colossus once known as the Congo of the continent gained in dependence from Belgium.
Then a colonel and the army chief of staff. Mobutu had earned his sol
diers' loyalty by building up the mil- itary forces and crushing post inde pendence secessionist revolts.
His coup was welcomed by the West, which was vying with the Sovi • •is for influence on the continent, and by Zairians weary of the bicker- ing civilian government that could- n't decide how best to share power in the ethnically diverse new nation.
Mobutu promised to preserve de- mocratic institutions and eventually return the country to civilian rule
Instead, he declared himself head of state, founded the Popular Revo- lutionary Movement party, banned all other political parties, and em- barked on a decades long pursuit of absolute power.
To cement his dictatorship and keep potential rivals at bay. senior politicians from the previous gov- ernment were appointed to overseas diplomatic posts, where most were then accused of anti Mobutu activi- ties and dismissed or arrested.
Powerful opponents who remained
in Zaire eventually fled into exile or were imprisoned or publicly execut- ed after sham trials Those who re- mained were co opted by Mobutu, seduced with gifts of limousines and luxurious villas, and kept kryal by en- twining them in his net of corruption.
Mobutu sought to shake off the remnants of colonial rule with a fierce policy of Zairianization." which in- cluded nationalization of mining and other major industries, ordering all government workers and ministers to wear Mao-style jackets, and outlaw ing Christian names.
He changed his own Christian sur names to Sese Seko Kuku Ngbendu wa za Ranga, which loosely means: "The all-powerful warrior who, be- cause of his endurance and inflexible will to win. will go from conquest to conquest leaving Are in his wake."
In a 1980 speech. Mobutu dashed any hopes of allowing Zaire to be- come a democracy. "As long as I live, I will not authorize the creation of another party," he said
The poor and powerful alike turned out to honor Mother Teresa.

Prime Minister I K. Cujral, who visited St Thomas' Church where Mother Teresa lay yesterday, said that just as India had Mohandas Gandhi to lead the fight against poverty, hunger and injustice in the first half of the century, so it had Mother Teresa to carry on that fight in the latter half.
tiujral has called for a state funer- al, meaning Mother Teresa will be Uiven the full military honors nor mally reserved for heads of state. That also makes it likely presidents and prime ministers from around the world will attend

w PUFF DADDY AND DONALD TRUMP RAP ABOUT BUSINESS OonakJ Trump, a 1968 Penn graduate, discusses business with rap artist and producer Sean "Puffy" Combs, popularly known as Puff Daddy, dunng the U.S. Open women's finals yesterday in Rushing Meadows. NY.
Charles asks for privacy for his sons Prince Charies asked that his sons, Princes William and Harry, be allowed to grieve for their mother in peace.
LONDON — Prince Charies pleaded yesterday for Britain's press to relax its fixation on the royals enough to give his sons peace to deal with their mother's death
His appeal, made through a spokesperson, came a day after the entire world watched as Prince William. 15. and Prince Harry, 12, solemnly followed their mother's coffin on the last mile of its journey to funeral services at West minster Abbey.
The last thing they need is to face a blast of flashguns when they go back to school." Charles' spokesperson, speaking on customary condition of anonymity, said of the young princes. The Prince of Wales wants some time and space for the boys so they can come to terms with their lost and prepare for the future."
Charies' push for privacy came amid intense criticism of the tabloid press for hounding the royals. Some have blamed the press for Diana's death after a high speed car crash while she was fleeing photographers last Sunday
Diana's brother. Earl Spencer, lashed out at the media in his eulogy Saturday, characterizing Diana as "the most hunted person of the modern age.''He called on the press to spare her sons the anguish that drove his sister "to tear- ful despair" The applause his emotional remarks sparked from the crowds both inside and outside Westminster Abbey could serve as a wake up call for the press.
Prime Minister Tony Blair yesterday reaffirmed his support for a voluntary code of conduct to curb the ex- cesses of tabloid-style journalism, rather than an at- tempt to enact strict privacy laws.
A huge test for the media is not far off: Both William and Harry — now in seclusion at their father's Highgrove es- tate, about 85 miles west of London are to return to boarding school this month
With vacation over, Clinton returns to full political agenda
WASHINGTON — After three nearly uninterrupted weeks at play on Martha's vineyard. President Clinton returned to the White House yesterday with a long to-do list At the very top: Salvage his centerpiece plan for education standards and testing.
The president also hoped, through an ambitious fail game plan, to control the political agenda on the big issues of to- bacco, free trade and global warming But with opposition building on those is- sues, time was already running out.
Clinton has "really had a chance to relax and spend some time thinking and recharging his batteries, so I think he's looking forward to getting back to work." spokesperson Joe Lockhart said before the president and his family departed their Massachusetts island haven yes- terday. "We expect progress on a number of issues."
Still, looming over the work ahead was the expectation among many White House officials that Clinton would be dis- tracted by the departure of daughter Chelsea for Stanford University later this month
One administration official cited a fall planning memo sent in August from the White House to the heads of all federal agencies, encouraging them to keep an eye out for official opportunities for the president to travel to northern California, near Stanford
Clinton, who wants wide latitude in negotiating a hemisphere-wide free trade zone at next spring's Summit of the Americas, instructed aides to consult
while he was away with more than 100 members of Congress on the prospects of winning so<alied fast track trade au thority
rYsnsmd for .i fi^ht from liberals in las own Democratic Party, Clinton plans to announce proposed legislation in an East Room ceremony Wednesday
While the White House has revealed little of what it plans to present to Con- gress, Senate Majority Leader Trent I-ott i K Miss) warned last week that the mea sure would be doomed by add-on provi- sions sought by environmentalists and labor unions.
"The president has made it clear that education is at the top of his list"
Joe Lockhart White House spokesoervm
Clinton is also under pressure to act quickly on — lest he forfeit — the land- mark deal to settle 40 state lawsuits against cigarette makers Lockhart ex |wr-t«wl a iiwiiMMJartwi hm the pres ident "sometime over the next couple of weeks."
But the stakes are highest for Clinton on education. "The president has made it clear that education is at the top of his list," Lockhart said.
Clinton was wasting little time in try ing to beat back congressional opponents
who hoped for a vote this week on gutting his program for voluntary grade school testing in math and reading He was scheduled to speak at a Maryland ele- mentary school first thing today
Aides gave the speech advance billing as his most forceful yet, and they sug- gested he would threaten to veto the massive spending bill for the Labor, Health and Human Services, and Edu- cation departments if Republicans suc- ceed on an amendment blocking funds for the testing.
Education Secretary Richard Riley and senior White House advisers have been waving the veto threat for weeks
In a similar school appearance on Martha's Vineyard last week, one of the few official pauses in his vacation. Clin ton admitted to being "a little bit peeved" that his push to set high national edu- cation standards and test learning has not caught fire so for.
Just six states and 15 school districts have embraced the plan and committed to the testing that would begin in 1999.
White House aides say the campaign, which Clinton launched with grand flour- ish in his State of the Union address, fiz- zled after Clinton's knee surgery in March forced the cancellation of an am bilious public relations tour.
On global warming, the administra tion has until December to rally the pub lie and Congress behind a U.S. commitment to tough new emissions limits, which Vice President Al Gore hopes to bring to international treaty talks in Kyoto. Japan
Israel arrests 100 Palestinians in response to bombing JERUSALEM - Israel has ar-
rested 100 Palestinians in response to a deadly bombing last week and is demanding the extradition of the Calestiman Authority's police chief, authorities said yesterday.
Those detained, believed to be Palestinian militants, were taken for interrogation by Israeli security farces, the army said. The West Bank sweep follows Thursday's triple suicide bombing that also killed four Israelis
Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat has denied that the bombers came from territory under his control. "Palestinians have not been involved
in the attacks." he said. Recognizing the further escalation
of tensions, leaders on both sides are hoping a visit to the region later this week by Secretary of State Madeleine Albright will help revive the mori- bund peace process.
Israel wants Albright to pressure Arafat to crack down on militant groups including Hamas, which claimed responsibility for Thursday's attack.
Only the United States can per suade the Palestinian Authority at this point to crack down," David Bar Ulan. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's
spokesperson, said yesterday. Last week, three bombers killed
themselves and four Israelis on a mall in the heart of Jerusalem. On Jury 30. two suicide bombers killed 15 Israelis at an outdoor market in Jerusalem.
In Jordan, security officials ar rested Hamas spokesperson Ibrahim Ghosheh, his son said yesterday. There was no immediate comment from Jordanian security agencies.
Meanwhile Friday, Netanyahu's Cabinet said no more West Bank land would be transferred to Palestinian authority until Arafat strikes at the in
frastructure of the organizations Palestinian Communications Min-
ister Yasser Abed Hanbo accused Ne tanyahu of using "pretexts" to postpone land transfers that are called for in the Israeli Palestinian peace agreements.
"Mr. Netanyahu is a political part ner for the terrorists," he told The Associated Pre** "Both of them want to kill and undermine the peace process."
According to the agreements, Is- rael — which retains control over more than 70 percent of the West Bank—is supposed to complete three
land transfers by mid 1988. The Pale* tinians say one was due yesterday.
In a joint statement issued from Cairo. Arafat. Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Jordan's King Hussein warned against any action that would violate earlier peace agreements.
Also yesterday, the Justice Ministry initiated a request for the extradition of Palestinian police chief Ghazi Ja ball, whom Israel has accused of ini- tiating attacks againfl Israelis. Jabali denies the accusation It was not dear whether the Palestinians have for maUy received the request

Sinn Fein leader visits prisoners, attends rally
SAN FRANCISCO - An Irish re- publican leader visited three es- capees from a Belfast prison awaiting extradition to England before at- tending a rally to build support for peace talks scheduled for this week.
Martin McGuinness — chief nego- tiator for Sinn Fein, the political wing of the Irish Republican Army — over the weekend visited the men. all self- proclaimed Irish nationalists who were among a group that escaped from Belfast's Maze prison in INS.
A federal judge in August agreed to extradite the three — Kevin Barry Artt. Pol Brennan and Terrance Kir by — to Britain, rejecting their argu- ments that they would be persecuted because they were Catholic and sup- ported a united Ireland.

College Dems and GOPers get political, bringing U. with them
By Amanda Jacobson TW DM|y OMMyfcrmun
The University's two main student political groups are hoping to reverse the trend of declining national voter turnout, especially among college aged students
With that goal topping their agen das, the College Republicans and College Democrats are set to be- gin another year of political ac- tivism.
"Everything is in its early stages right now. so our first meeting will be really important" said College Re- publicans Chairperson Wendy Mongillo
Last year, the club closed its books with about SO listed members. 25 of whom were active.
Attributing these low numbers to lack of publicity. Mongillo. a College senior, said the club is currently de- voting most of its energy to raising student interest. Some of these ef forts include a membership booth at CUPID — where KO people signed up — and a table this week on Locust Ml
The College Democrats, led by College senior Aaron Well, have ex perienced similar turnouts in recent years. The Democrats are hoping for a 55-60 person club with around 35 active members, much like last year.
Well attributed the limited politi cal activism on campus to the little in
teraction between the University and the community
"Since there is no neighborhood feeling, it is difficult to get people in- volved in the most local, most bask level of politics." he said.
Compounding the relatively low turnout rates, participation in both groups traditionally tends to lag as the school year goes on. according to leaders
"Young people bring a lot to politics simply by being young and having different ideas."
Aaron Well i nlkyf Democrat's hrsKirnt
"People, especially freshmen, re- alize they don't have as much free time as they thought." Well said.
And with no presidential election this year to increase student ac- tivism. Well noted that students tend to lose interest in day-to-day issues. To increase student activism, the groups plan to hold events focusing specifically on issues relevant to stu- dents.
Mongillo said college political groups are an important outlet for young people to "speak their minds and not be bashful about saying what
they feel just because they are younger
And Well noted that "young peo- ple bring a lot to politics simply by being young and having different ideas"
The College Republicans are plan ning to do many of the same events as last year, including debates with the College Democrats and debates among themselves.
The group also hopes to have more involvement with the Penn State Col- lege Republicans and to establish a Drexel University chapter of the Col- lege Republicans.
The College Democrats, mean- while, are trying to add a visit from Mayor Ed Rendell to their calendar of events — which also includes sever- al debates.
In a year with so few elections in the country, the group will focus on community-based activities. Well said. For example, the group plans to hold a letter-writing cam- paign focusing on current national issues.
And both group leaders said they hope to hold several joint activities in hopes of strengthening the Univer sity's political network.
The Republicans' first meeting is scheduled for this Wednesday, and the Democrats plan to kkk off the year September 23 Each club will hold open general meetings once every two weeks

History Professor Jack Reece dies at 56 RKKCE from page Al
Beta Kappa Key from his alma mater. the University of Michigan
Reece rose through the ranks of the History Department, eventually serving as chairperson of both the undergraduate and graduate de- partmental programs.
He published a book in 1977 dealing with minority nationalism in Brittany And at the time of his death. Reece was working on another book about the Sicilian Mafia. Additionally. In- contributed to numerous history Journals and lectured to political lead ers and scholars at international con- ventions
Recce's lectures were also well-at- tended in his home court, where his popularity as a professor stemmed from a passionate teaching style that always encouraged camaraderie and "energetic student participation." ac cording to McDougall.
And History Department Chair person Lynn Lees added that Reece "took a personal interest in all of his students."
Reece received the Lindback Award for Distinguished Undergrad uate Teaching in 1973 and CG3 named him its Teacher of the Year" in 1989
But Reece's commitment to his
students and colleagues extended far beyond the doors of 3401 Walnut Street
He became actively involved in ap- proximately 25 committees, ranging from the University Task Force on HIV AlDS to the Senate Ad Hoc Com- mittee on Racial and Sexual Harass- ment
He sought increased communica tkm between faculty and the admin istrauon and mocked the pretensions of academic life.
Reece believed that Penn took it self too seriously." Engs said. "He wanted us to stop trying to pretend that we were Princeton and take pride in practical things."
And former student Barry Bergen, who received his doctorate in history from Penn in 1987. remembered his mentor's dislike for politicians whose behavior didn't measure up to his standards.
While Reece ignored pretentious academics, he embraced pragmatic scholars.
His colleagues repeatedly de- scribed him as "kind hearted, coura- geous and dignified."
Former student Steven Zdatny — who received his doctorate in histo- ry in 1982 — said Reece possessed "a slightly distant and ironic approach to the world, combined with a fierce
commitment to doing what was right and an unshakable personal hon- esty"
"His understanding of the world and people went far beyond the ivy covered walls of the academy." Bergen added. He epitomized the "model of a scholar, a teacher and a human being"
The History Department will es (ablush a memorial fund in Reece's honor by the end of the fall. All pro- ceeds will benefit graduate students in history.
Funeral services for Reece are scheduled for September 28 in Fulton. Mich

TOMORROW Led by coach George O'Neill, the Penn men's soccer program looks to continue its second+ialf improvement in the Ivy League this season. SPORTS

making tackles for the Buffalo Bills after being a second-
round draft pick.
About-face: D-backs and running backs shuffle again TWo RBs made the switch from defense to offense to help 611 the void left by Jasen Scott and Aman Abye.

In many games last year, running back i Scott was the entire Quakers' of- . While Penn shuffled through quar-
terbacks Steve Teodecki, Tom MacLeod and Brian Russell, the running game be came more of a necessity than in recent years. Perm's ground game accounted for over SO percent of the offense, and Scott received as many as 48 carries in one game

Lyren will not return The 1996-97 Penn mens basketball captain did not recover from a injured tendon in his foot
By Matt Want Tbtltul/t
Jamie Lyren, the 199«-97 Penn men's basketball captain, announced his decision not to play for the Quak- ers this upcoming season. The 6*3" guard from Wadsworth, Ohio, was en tering his last year of collegiate eli- gibility after missing most of his junior year due to an injury.
Just when Lyren thought he was fully recovered from the foot injury, he suffered his second major foot injury
^^ in as many sea- ^^•sw sons
mouth on February 21 In- juring his ten- don in his right foot, Lyren's in ability to fully re- cover is the main factor in his decision not to play.
Lyr«n "It was a decision, both
physically and emotionally, that he didn't think he could devote 100 per- cent of himself to playing, and thought it would be best to step away." Penn coach Fran Dunphy said
Lyren only made known his deci- sion a few weeks ago, when he called Dunphy at home, explaining to his coach that he was not healthy, and didn't think he would be up to playing this season.
"I encouraged him to rethink what he wanted to do," Dunphy said. "So over that period of time between when he called me on the phone and the time that we sat down in person on Wednesday, he rethought the sit- uation, and came to the same deci sion."
Selected by the players as team captain in 1996. Lyren was the only senior on the squad. His role on the inexperienced, but talented, team was clear. Lyren would be a teacher and mentor to the younger players, showing them the ropes. His main leadership responsibility was to help acclimate the young guards to Penn basketball, especially freshman Michael Jordan
Jordan's quality first season, win- ning the league Rookie of the Year award, coupled with Lyren's ailing right foot, meant that Jordan took the starting role away from Lyren. who was forced to come off the bench for the rest of the season
Lyren. who was a member of three Ivy League title-winning teams while at Penn, saw limited action during those three seasons. In his first two years, he appeared in 27 games. It was hard to break the rotation with future NBA players like Matt Mai oney and Jerome Allen presiding at the Palestra. However, when Allen and Maloney graduated in 1995. it was supposed to be Lyren's time to step up
Lyren's first season as a starter was 1995 96 However, his junior campaign did not go exactly as planned In only the fifth game of the season, Lyren broke a bone in his left foot against Penn State at the Atlantic

With Rader. MaLeod and the receivers doing a tremendous job in practice.'' Penn running backs coach Mark Chmielinslo said, "we have extreme confidence in the passing game which should make up for the inexperience in the backfield."
The Quakers were in such dire need of backfield help that they switched three de fensive backs to the other side of the ball Junior Bruce Rossignol actually played

Yet despite the lack of previous playing time, the running backs know Penn will not stray too much from its past offen- sive philosophy.
"In order to be successful, we need to run the football consistently.'' Rossignol said. "We need to establish a strong run ning game."
McGee, at first, was the most likely candidate to take over the featured back role He has the most knowledge of Penn's system, and in his limited game time last year, he averaged almost nine yards a carry. He also added 15 pounds of muscle over the summer to help prepare him- self for the pounding he would receive if he carried the ball 20 times a game
"I had to work on my endurance," McGee said. "I had to get adapted to run- ning over a long period of time If I had to carry the ball 40 times in a game. I could do that''
McGee appeared to be No. 1 on the depth chart, according to Chmielinski, but an injury to McGee's hamstring has forced him out of practice and allowed the other backs more opportunities to

The women's volleyball team hopes to be the first to bring winning ways back to the Palestra floor in the "97 season.
The march towards the "w's" started August 27th as workouts commenced in Weightman Hall and culminated with a scrim mage against Drexel last Wednesday.
During the five game match. Penn coach Margaret Feeney and the rest of the Penn squad saw promising results

Lewis and Potter both showed the ability to step up in key situations in the "98 season. The two will be key ingredients in maintaining a de- fensive mentality and a strong blocking core.
"I think our practices have been geared to- wards the defense." Sabatino said. "Our of- fcnse will improve as the blockers can open up more for the hitters.''
The offensive attack, although admittedly leas of a focus, should nonetheless be tough. Led by senior team leader Jessica Lufunan, the outside hitting should be steady and reli- able

"I think they're going to be able to contribute a lot. Tillet said of the new players. "They seem to mesh pretty well They're going to do some good things."
The Quakers head into this week's practice looking to get a starting lineup solidified before the weekend's tournament in Syracuse. The Quakers will start the tourna ment with the Orangemen as their first real competition They will then test themselves against the likes of Manahttan and Central Connecticut.
If a starting lineup can mesh, the Quakers could find themselves in the middle of an Ivy League title race In a league full of ••parity", as Feeney put it. there is as much room for this group of players to step up as anyone
"If this team continues to work hard, and things click and gel for us. then I think we could definitely be vying for an Ivy League champi onship in November." Feeney said

Lyren leaves leadership void LYREN from page Bl
City Shootout on Dec. 9.1996. He un- derwent season ending surgery two months later.
After last year, Lyren petitioned the Ivy League to allow him an ex tra year of eligibility. Because he only played in five games and he could benefit academically, he was granted a fifth year of eligibility, which at he time. Lyren said was "something 100 percent that I want to do. I want to get as many oppor tunities to play as I can get." How ever, his inability to stay healthy changed his mind
Without l.yren. Dunphy will have to look elsewhere to fill the leadership void left in Lyren's wake. Senior Garett Kreitz and juniors Jed Ryan and Paul Romanczuk are the likely candidates However. Dunphy is not worried.
"I think leadership comes in all sorts of ways It can come from the younger guys as well." Dunphy said "I think Michael (Jordan) is a very good leader and I think he will pick up MM of that slack as well, but I think i twill be more of a team effort than an individual thing and hopefully we will be okay"
Whether Lyren's decision is moU vated by a continuing lack of playing time is unclear Lyren did not return repeated phone calls from The Dai ly Pennsylvanian.
"We will definitely miss Jamie." Dunphy said. "He meant a lot to our program and he meant a lot to me IM-rsonally I'm disappointed mat he won't be with us, but at the same time. I respect him greatly"

"The injury is coming along slow- er than I expected." McGee said. "The most frustrating thing is I did everything to prepare for this year and now 1 am on the sidelines "
Kossignol has been impressive in practice after his one-year absence from offense He is Penn's largest running back at 210 pounds and is not the typical slashing runner that IVnn has relied upon in the past
"I have a little more weight than the other backs, and I'm not as quick
or as jukey of a runner." Kossignol said. "Hopefully I'm the type of back this offense needs.*'
Alexander appears to be the quick- est and most elusive runner out of the backfield. while also being the smallest back at 5*9" and 180 pounds He looked very impressive in Satur- day's scrimmage against MillersviDe, exhibiting the ability to break into the open field and run away from de- fenders.
"With Penn's zone blocking scheme." Alexander said. "I feel my quickness will be an attribute to the team."
Bunn has been the biggest sur- prise so far because of his ability to compete for the starting spot even though he is the least experienced
back. He received his first test un- der game-like conditions against Millenrvule.
"He has impressed the coaches." Perm head coach Al Bagnoli said. "He hits the hole with full acceleration.''
With all spots on the depth chart still undecided, the competition has been intense in practice. But the backs see this as providing only pos- itive results
"Competition is something this backfield needs." McGee said "It makes us better as a unit
Increasing the importance of gain- ing the starting spot is that one run ning back from the quartet will be responsible for providing the bulk of the rushing yards in Penn's one back schemes. Last year, Scott and Abye
were expected to platoon at they bad in 1995. yet Scott finished the year with 247 more carries than Abye
"Our philosophy is to not platoon." Chmielinski said. "In order to get a good back you need to get him reps, MI yi>«i favor .in individual Wr want to get away from what we did two years ago We made a mistake with that."
Bagnoli realizes his improved pass- ing game will not succeed if other teams key on it. In the past Perm has been able to rely on one running back to take the pressure off the passing game, and there is little doubt in the coaching staff's mind that they will find their running back.
"That's what this offense does, we find answers." Chmielinski said. "And we do an outstanding job of it."
OLs have been an annual strength under Bagnoli OFFENSIVE LINE from page Bl

measuring in at ■'2". with Cooney UppinK the scale at 280 and Coniah at 216. Cooney will have one more year of football eligibility after this season, while for Conish, this season is a now-or-never shot at Penn's start- ing lineup
With Adam Conish coming back and Chris Cooney's being around, we are pretty veteran on offensive line," Kiley said, "even though we just re turn two starters."
In addition, sophomore Carmelo Kubano (6*2", 265) and junior Jesse Simonin (61", 270) will see playing time at the guard positions. With a strong performance in the presea- son scrimmages, either player may earn a shot at the starting lineup
Between the two guards. Soys- ter adds skill and experience. At the start of last season, the center position was a big Red and Blue question mark, with the State Col lege, Pa., native trying to make the shift from defensive line But with a year of experience under his belt. Soyster has established himself as stable in the middle, irrespective what quarterback is playing behind him
"At center, you're more worried about your defensive back and who you have to block than I the quarter backl behind you." Soyster said.
On the outside. Riley returns to
his familiar home at right tackle with sophomore Jason Lebron i6'6". 290) the ail-but confirmed starter on the left. Riley, a Morris town. N.J , native, hopes to follow in the footsteps of his brother, Sean, who earned second-team All-Ivy honors in his senior season at Dart mouth.
Sophomore Mike Bertolino (6'5". 260) also figures at tackle, likely shar ing time with Lebron and serving as season long competition for the start ing right tackle position.
A strong offensive line, dominat ing its defensive counterparts, has been a staple of Penn football since coach Al Bagnoli took the Quakers' reigns in 1992. Although often un- noticed, the line seems to get the job done There's no better evidence of this than the fact that no matter who the ball carrier — whether it be Terrance Stokes as in 1993-94 or Aman Abye and Deion Camp and Scott in '95, or Scott and Rick Uranata in '96 — the rushing game has consistently averaged better than three-and-a-half yards per car
If this year's line can match those of previous Bagnoli squads, neophyte running backs Jason McGee, Bruce Rossignol and Melvin Alexander should have no trouble carrying the football into the end zone and pro pelting Penn to the top of the Ivy 1-eague

Wiley steps up his game from Columbia to Buffalo
By Justin Feil Tin ll—ll !"■'—■jliMimi
It wasn't so long ago that Columbia football was tin- laughing stock of the Ivy League Last year they broke out i >f the their losing ways to compete for the Ivy League crown, finishing sec ond to Dartmouth with an 8-2 overall record. A big reason for their turn around was All Ivy standout defen
•nd Marvcllus Wiley who now is focusing on making the Buffalo Kills back into a Super Bowl con lender seeing some action in the Hills' first two game.v
Wucy was highly touted out of Co lumbia. despite playing against Ivy league competition Slated by some to be a first rounder. Wiley fell to the MB ond round and the 52nd overall pick. Nonetheless, he seemed happy and furthermore, the Bills seemed eostat !i to yet Wik-y late in the .seaHid round
I went into there just hoping to get drafted. I went there with MM mental images of myself going high I knew I matched up well with other players out Ihere that were eligible lor the draft, he saul
Two weeks into training camp at SUNY rYedonia. Wil.-y explained tliat it doesn't matter to anyone on the Mills learn when- he is from just as long as he can play Wiley was able to evaluate himself in the first few week> and saw lumsi'll dofca] MM things to receive the coaching staff's KKil.ides and other things thai !u- hopes to improve
Wiley has excellent speed for a de
fensive end which will probably be used most often by the Bills in their nickel and dime packages. He also expects to play a lot of special teams, but his personal goals are loftier
"Kirst of all. my most immediate goal is to make the team I*ast that. I want to be a positive contributor — a performer." Wiley said.
Wiley did admit that his handwork 11 mid use improvement ()n the advice of NFL veterans Brice i*aup and Jim Jeficoat. Wiley has been taking karate and yoga to help his lineman skills
Yoga and karate are just two lifestyle changes that Wiley has real ized come with being a professional athlete The differences between the colk'ge and professional games begin then- Football changes from being a sort of hobby to a job. It's more de manding and more intense
"There are less distractions, but there are more obstacles." Wik-y said.
There ami t any classes, but team meetings arc held rce.iil.irly and at tendance is mandatory. He is ex- pected to learn everything in the plavbook. and learn it ipnekly Sun days are the testing days
"I have high goals for myself I'm a ■Mtod athlete, and all you have to do 1 play vour ixisition It's where you fit in the system You try to show the things you learn in practice in the .'.allies lie said
When facing professional competion for the first Umc, Wiley was able to apply pressure several times and elud I'd his blocker enough to draw a few
holding calls on his Denver Broncos opponent (HwralL he has found that lie in the NFL can be a learning process.
"Run reads arc the most difficult for me. Offenses are very, very hard to read in comparison to college. There are a lot more things being thrown at you at once." he said
Wik-y is willing to work hard though to prove that he bekmgs in the NFL The no lion that he could play at this k-vel has al ways been there, even as a 195-pound freshman running back at Columbia.
"I thought I had a legitimate shot as a freshman when I was playing run- ning back." he said laughing. "When I got to the all star games and I got to match myself up against the guys that got all the publicity then I knew I had what it took to be in the NFI. "
He has matured much since that Ireshman year He added nearly 80 pounds to his 6'4" frame to reach his current 271 pound listing Yet. he is still capable ot running a 4 7 40 yard dash In adding the weight. Wiley ha sically outgrew the I running back I ixisilion as he explained Columbia continued to use Wiley in short yardage situations, hut he readily ad- mits those may have been the last carries of his I.M
"I'm trying to master what I'm playing right now At Columbia, that was pretty much a gimmick. If I get to that status level when- they want to play around with me a little more. I'll look forward to that but for now I want to stay as Marccllus Wiley — the great defensive end." Wiley said

Rusedski, Hingis win first U.S. Opens NEW YORK — In flourishes that
barkened back to the great champi- ons in Australia's proud tennis her- itage, Patrick Rafter overcame the fastest server in history to win the U.S. Open yesterday and secure his first Grand Slam title.
Rafter stared at his racket to see if it had cracked when Greg Rusedski unleashed a record 143 rnph serve in the fourth set, then bore down to fin- ish off a 6-3,6-2,4-6, 7-5 victory.
In a scene reminiscent of Aus- tralian Pat Cash's climb into the stands to hug his father when he won Wimbledon in 1987. Rafter climbed up to embrace his family, friends and
coach Tony Roche. "I can't believe it. I'm in a fantasy
land." Rafter said. The first Australian champion of the
U.S. Open since John Newcombe in 1973, Rafter played in the tradition of his famous mentors with a serve-and volley style and an athletic flair that never wavered even under pressure.
Rusedski trying to become the first British winner since Fred Perry in 1936, provided plenty of that pressure with his booming serves and gutsy shots in a third-set comeback. But Rafter kept attacking the net, leaping for almost impossible volleys and making them
Perhaps only tennis aficionados knew who Rafter and Rusedski were Certainly the women's WMaWa teen- agers Martina Hingis and Venus Williams, had greater popularity around the world. But Hingis' 6-0,6- 4 victory over Williams had none of the drama, and little of the grand play, of the Rafter-Rusedski match Hingis won the first set in just 22 minutes.
Rafter wore his long hair in a Samu rai bun and he played with a warrior's fervor His link to players like New combe and Rod Laver. Roche and Ken RosewalL could be seen in his graceful style on court, his muscular legs, and his love of the game
Roche tutors him and Newcombe calls up at times with advice. For more than two decades, Australia's best players have been banding to- gether to help produce another cham pion. Cash came along as a surprise
I iltciidi' ago, and now M has Rafter Rafter lost in the first round at the
U S. Open a year ago. Rusedski had- n't won a match at the Open in his three previous years here.
"The difference was I missed a few easy volleys, a few balls by an inch" Rusedski said. "Pat was just the bet ter player on the day I think I'll learn, like I did from being in the quarters at Wimbledon."
Packers' dream of perfection dies on missed field goal PHILADELPHIA - So much for
the Green Bay Packers'talk of an un- defeated season.
Rookie Ryan Longwell missed what would have been the game winning field goal with 11 seconds left, and Ty Detmer threw for the game's only touchdown with 1 56 left as the Philadelphia Eagles upset the defend mg Super Bowl champions 10-9 yes- terday
LongweU, who hadn't missed a field goal attempt in either the exhibition or regular season, was wide right from 28 yards out, touching off a wild celebration at Veterans Stadium.
The Packers (1-1) lost for the first time in 10 games, including their play- off run to the championship last year The Eagles were beaten 31-17 by the New York Giants in their opener
Detmer's 2-yard touchdown pass to
Freddie Solomon capped an 80-yard. 1 9 play drive that took up 9:22. It end- ed when, on fourth down, Detmer found a wide-open Solomon in the back of the end zone.
The Packers had a chance to win after Solomon's touchdown when Bill Schroeder returned the ensuing lock off to their 47.
After Brett Favre. who finished 19-of 12 for 279 vards. led the Packers to the
Eagles 10. LongweU. who converted kicks from 22.18 and 27 earlier in the game, missed the short field goal
Detmer finished 19 of 32 for 193 yards and a touchdown
The Eagles'defense deserves most of the credit for the win. as it held the Packers, who led the NFL with 456 points last year, to under double digits for only the third time in the last four seasons.
U.S. moves closer to booking World Cup place on late goal PORTIJVNI). Ore Tab Ramos
scored in his return to the World Cup qualifying 10 months after a severe knee injury, putting the Americans in prime position to qualify with a 1- 0 victory over Costa Rica yesterday.
Ramos connected from 22 yards out in the 79th minute, moving the Americans i2-l-3) into second place in
the final round of qualifying in soc- cer's North and Central American and Caribbean region, two points be- hind Mexico (3-0-2).
Costa Rica (2 3 2). with two losses and a tie in its last three games, is a point behind the Americans, falling into a third-place be with Jamaica (2-2-2). which beat Canada 1 -0 yesterday
The top three teams advance to the 32 nation tournament in France next summer. The Americans' next game is against Jamaica on Oct. 3 at RFK Stadium in Washington.
Playing in front of a loud, sellout crowd of 27,:i% at old Civic Stadium, where giant strips of grass were laid over the artificial turf, the United
States dominated play throughout but failed to turn its advantages into clean shots on goal.
Five minutes later, the substitution paid off. Ernie Stewart lofted a pass across the field to the right side, where Preki won the ball and knocked it into the penalty area, where MarceJo Bakna knocked it to Ramos near the arc.

Buccaneers 24, Uons 17 PONTIAC. Mich — Tampa Bay
rookie Warnck Dunn never doubted
he belonged in the NFL I 'pstaginii the great Barry Sanders only mates him more confident than ever.
"I don't want to think small," Dunn said after the Buccaneer's 24-17 win over the Detroit Lions yesterday "I think big."
Dunn carried 24 times for 130 yards, including a 6-yard touchdown, as the Bucs — who began 0-5 last season — posted their first 2-0 start since 1992. The Bucs' defense, which held the San Francisco 4»ers with out a touchdown in their opener, held Sanders to 20 yards on lOcames.
We have the type of team that can contain Barry," said coach Tony Dungy, whose aggressive, swarming defensive scheme is turning the Bucs around. "We've got a lot of speed in
our linebacker corps and our front four."

I The Darfv Pennsytvanian Monday. September 8.1997
A great university. A great newspaper.
And 8 great ways to get involved. In some ways, college is just like high school. You sit in class, lis-
ten, and take notes. At test time, you regurgitate the information you've memorized.
But wait. There's more to college life. Want excitement? The opportunity to meet new people? The
chance to learn by doing, not by watching? Join The Daily Pennsylvanian.
The DP', the 113-year-old daily newspaper of the University of Pennsylvania, is consistently rated one of the top ten college news- papers in the country by the Associated Collegiate Press and the Co- lumbia Scholastic Press Association.
Students, faculty and administrators look to us as their main source of news and information about the University and West Philadelphia. Local businesses see us as the most cost-effective
EDITORIAL
We've sent reporters to Washington to cover protests and to llarrisburg to cover the governor's inauguration. This past fall. DP reporters covered Bill (llinton and H< >l> Dole on election night. On campus, we keep a close eye on everything from the administration to student government to crime. In the last few years, DP reporters have interviewed celebrities such as lip per Gore. Tommy Lasorda, Kd Koch. Alex Trebek and Dr. Ruth.
Our sportswrilers cover 25 intercollc giate sports, and travel to cities all over the country. Sportswrilers also follow the rise of Penn graduates m various profes- sional sports careers. In recent years I)(' sportswrilers have interviewed Chuck Daly. John ( alipari. lohn Chanev and I >an O'Hrien.
Columnists on the DP's editorial page inform, entertain, and spark campus de- bate everyday. And writers for our award-winning weekly arts and entertainment mag- azine, 34th Street, offer readers reviews of movies, records, theaters and books, plus in-depth feature stories on the city and an offbeat perspective on college life.
Staff members have photographed famous figures ranging from Bill (.linton to Bill Cos- by to Billy Joel. If you're looking for action shots, our photographers cover all of the Ivy ■.purls football, basketball, lacrosse, etc. We'll help you develop the skills needed to shoot, develop and digitally scan your photographs. Whether you are interested in pho- tography as an art or as a journalistic skill, the DP has what you are looking for.
DP artists and designers work nightly on page designs, graphics and illustrations. Staff designers orchestrate the presentation of the newspaper by laying out the front and sports pages, while artists develop illustrations to accompany news stones and columns. Our staff utilizes state-of-the-art equipment — Power Macintosh computers, electronic drawing tablets, and film and flatbed scanners — to get the job done. Staff members learn the latest techniques in computer design and illustration by using the hottest software, such as QuarkXPress. Adobe Photoshop. Adobe Illustrator, and Fractal Design Painter.
Welcome to the information age! The Dairy Pennsylvanian maintains a large online web- site containing everything from the editorial content of the daily newspaper, to a search- able text archive containing thousands of past articles. Internet team staffers work nightly to transfer the dairy paper to the World Wide Web and create new features for the site. They utilize state of the an equipment and (he latest Internet technologies to design, program, and create a versatile and interactive product available to the whole world.
way to present their message to the lucrative Penn market. In fact, more than 25,000 people read the DP every day.
Most importantry, the DP—a corporation independent of the Uni- versity — is run and managed by students. Students just like you. Everyday, we write and edit the stories, shoot and develop the pho- tographs, lay out and put together the news pages. Everyday, we sell and design the advertisements, handle customer inquiries, and de- velop budgets and financial statements.
As a DP staff member, you'll get the opportunity to learn in the trenches, to apply what you've learned in the classroom to the real world. From reporting and writing to shooting photographs to sell- ing advertisements to designing pages, you don't watch — you do.
And, in all of our departments, you'll begin doing from day one. All you need is enthusiasm, imagination, and drive—we'll teach you the rest.
BUSINESS The DP means business, too. We're not
jusi .1 campus newspaper — we're an in- dependent corporation in which students call the shots.
At the DP. you won't learn about the business world by reading a textbook — you'll visit customers, develop budgets, plan marketing strategies, work with com- puters, formulate financial statements, and design advertisements. And you'll gain the kind of real-life business experi- ence employers love.
After undergoing an in-depth training program. DP sales representatives hit the streets running. DP Sales Reps are re- sponsible for servicing existing customers and prospecting to develop new ones. You'll learn valuable business skills, such as making presentations, time manage- ment, using the telephone efficiently, writ-
ing effective business letters, and providing good customer service. Plus, while you're learning and getting this great business experience, you'll also earn commission on every ad you sell.
Our marketing department brainstorms new ways to promote the paper to attract read- ers and advertisers. Staff members conduct market research, generate selling strategies and promotional materials, and work together with all of the editorial and business de- partments to increase sales and readership of the newspaper.
How does $1,000,000 sound? The DP is big business — our revenues top the one million dollar mark each year. You
i an study the theory of finance at Wharton, but the DP gives you an ideal business lab- oratory — and the money is real. Finance and credit staff members control the funds by preparing budgets and financial statements, paying and issuing bills, and handling cus- tomer service and collet-lions, h-w other activities on campus offer as much independence with such real stakes.
