Coup incites nuclear tension ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP)

� Pakistani troops staged a coup against the democratically elect-ed government Tuesday, seizing state-run media and confining the prime minister to his home in a lightning move that raised ten-sions in the world’s newest � nuclear region.

In a televised address, Army Chief Gen. Pervaiz Musharraf accused the democratically elect-ed government of "systematically destroying" state institutions and driving the economy toward col-lapse.

"You are all well aware of the kind of turmoil and uncertainty that our country has gone through in recent times," Musharraf said. "Not only have all the institutions been played around with and systematically destroyed, the economy too is in a state of collapse."

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was under apparent house arrest in Islamabad hours after he tried to fire Musharraf as army chief and replace him with his ally, Gen. Zia Uddin, former head of Pakistan’s secret service.

As troops moved through the main cities, many Pakistanis danced in the streets and waved flags, celebrating the ouster of a prime minister who has become increasingly unpopular.

Sharif has been accused of try-ing to consolidate his power by weakening institutions like the judiciary, provincial governments and the opposition, and of using heavy-handed tactics to quell opPosition protests in recent weeks.

Word of the coup led the army of nuclear rival India to go on

high alert along the border between the two countries, a senior officer in India’s northern command in Kashmir said.

Birth control needs to be accessible to women by insurance

t (

With the world popula-tion reportedly at the 6 billion mark, some-

thing needs to be done to keep the population from growing any faster than it already is.

One simple solution is mak-ing sure contraceptives and birth control are available for women of all economic means.

According to a study done by Population Action International, roughly half of the 33 million women nationwide are in need of contraception that includes 5 million teens and almost 12 million low income women who need publicly supported services.

This need, however, is not being met by many insurance companies.

The study found that less than 20 percent of pri-vate plans and less than 40 percent of managed care programs cover all five major reversible contraceptive methods � oral contraceptives, diaphragms, Depo Provera, intrauterine device and Norplant.

So the women who end up with contraception are the women who can afford to pay for it out of their pockets.

Women who usually cannot afford the extra expense of contraception are the poor and adolescent, who also have the highest rates of unplanned births. ,

According to the same study, almost 1 million teen pregnancies occur each year in the United States, of which four out of five are unplanned. Each year, more than 3 million unintended pregntMcies occur, 1.4 mil-lion of which end in abortion.

If insurance agencies would start taking a part in offering coverage of contraception, these numbers would drop significantly.

Although abstinence may be the best solution, it’s not a likely one.

For a country so determined to keep population down, even to the point of the U.S. government spon-soring non-consenting sterilization of women � espe-cially the poor, immigrants and minorities � in the 1970’s, no one seems to want to make contraceptives easier to obtain.

A major argument has been that these contracep-tives would end up costing employers too much money.

According to an estimate by the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy, the employer’s cost could be as little as $1.43 per employee per month.

It’s ridiculous that Viagra, a drug for men with impotence, is covered by many insurance agencies, but not a drug that will curb the amount of unwanted pregnancies and abortions.

Both the American Medical Association and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommended in May 1998 that all health insurance policies providing prescription benefits should no longer exempt contraceptive prescriptions.

.It’s time insurance agencies listened.

With population on the rise and increasing numbers of unwanted pregnancies, should insurance cover women’s birth control?

SPreventing pregnancy not responsibility of insurance companies

Illustration by Cindy Wong

pregnancy is not a disease, and we should not treat it like one.

Why insure a medicine that causes problems, especially when what it’s being prescribed for is a healthy condition?

Some people, especially teens, assume that being on the pill eliminates all chance of becoming pregnant. They forget to take the pill daily and to use condoms to protect themselves against sexu-ally transmitted diseases.

Condoms are an effective way to prevent contract-ing most STDs, but they don’t protect against all of them, including genital warts and Herpes Simplex, according to a brochure by the American College Health Association. Condoms have a typical 14 percent failure rate, according to the 1998 Boston Women’s Health book, "Our Bodies, Ourselves for the New Century."

The pill is expected to be 97 to 99.9 percent effective when used correctly, according to a brochure by Planned Parenthood.

Young woman, however, take the pill unaware of the possible side effects and risks involved in taking a hor-mone three-fourths of the time.

Common side effects of oral contraceptives include change in appetite, loss of scalp hair and depression, according to the informational insert. Less common side effects of the pill can include blood clots, heart attacks and liver tumors.

Another reason insurance prescription plans should not be made responsible for birth control is because so many people morally oppose it.

Proponents of the Equity in Prescription Insurance and Contraceptive Coverage Act claim that coverage of birth control will promote advancements of women’s equality.

I’ll feel that advances for women are being made when I’m accepted as an equal member in society with-out being expected to fake out my reproductive organs into thinking that Fm pregnant when I’m not.

Equality does not come from being altered but from being accepted as yourself. A woman should not have to change herself to be considered a man’s equal.

The purpose of insurance prescription plans is to provide people with the medicine needed to treat med-ical conditions. Birth control does not do this.

Would you go to the doctor because your heart never skips a beat, and you always seem to breathe enough oxygen?

The God-given ability for a woman to conceive a child does not qualify as a medical condition that needs to be cured. A woman’s ability to have a child is an indi-cation that she’s healthy, not sick.

Should we start funding breast implants and penile extensions?

The common argument that insurance should cover birth control because Viagra is covered, is invalid. Impotence is a medical condition, fertility is not.

It’s one thing for birth control to be available in the United States and for people to have the right to pur-chase it, but choosing to use birth control is an elective decision, such as coloring one’s hair, and society should not become responsible for paying for it.

Christina Lucarotti is a Spartan Daily staff writer.

FORUM Divorce better than unhappy marriage There aren’t very many

things in this world that last forever.

Death lasts forever. Diamonds last forever.

True love lasts forever. Well, in theory anyway. The cover story of this

week’s Metro features a story about a Silicon Valley couple who have spent four years and $2 million in attorney fees to end their marriage of four years. In essence they spent the same amount of time in court trying to end their marriage as they did an actual couple.

Although love often lasts lifetime, that doesn’t necessarily mean marriage does.

It seems as though there is way too much pres-sure on young people today to enter the institution of marriage. Whether it’s popping the question or waiting for the question to be popped, people seer!’ hasty in making a decision that most would choose to make only once in their lifetime.

I was lucky. My parents separated when I was 9 years old and it had little effect on my mental well-being. I was fortunate to have two parents who loved my sister and I enough to remain civil with one another. Both were emotionally available and they always remained a team when it came to the task of disciplining us, which happened more often than I’d like to admit. Although it wasn’t feasible for both my parents to spend equal time with us, it was their spirit that never left our side. It was the morals and values they both instilled in us togeth-er, even though their marriage had to come to an end.

I think I was an exception. I had far too many friends who were shuffled from mom’s one week to dad’s the next. It was sad to see this spectacle and it left many of my young friends feeling torn. Most

of them never felt comfortable at either of their two "homes."

We’d all like to think of marriage as something we’ll only go through once. But that’s not always how it works out. Some people believe that marriage, like riding a bike, takes practice. Every attempt improves our ability to perfect it

I’d like to think that I’ll exchange vows only once. I know that if the times comes for me to commit that much of myself to another person, it will mean a promise to solve any and all problems - to forgive under any circum-stances. Marriage to me means being willing to work out all things, no matter what.

But in reality, divorce is quite necessary in some cases. The right to end a marriage has been benefi-cial to both men and women who realize they might have made a wrong decision - which we’re all capable of.

As we approach the age where many of us might be newly married or at least will start thinking of marriage remember this: Divorce doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

In many cases it’s better for couples to separate rather than remain in an unhappy marriage, which can be harmful to them and even more damaging to children.

I know my parents made the right decision 15 years ago.

I’m just grateful they had the ability to go about it the right way, putting the interest of their chil-dren first and being forgiving enough to remain friends.

San Jose State

Coup Continued from pg 1

India, Musharraf said "no outside forces" should try to take advan-tage of the "prevailing situation in Pakistan.... We shall preserve the integrity and sovereignty of our country to the last drop of blood."

Tuesday’s developments fol-lowed reports in recent weeks of a yawning rift between the military and the civilian government in this impoverished and over-whelmingly Muslim country of 140 million people.

The army has ruled Pakistan for 25 of its 52-year history, and army takeovers have happened repeatedly. But democratically elected governments have been in place since 1985.

Sharif fired Musharraf while the military leader was on a visit to Sri Lanka. Musharraf flew back to Pakistan and was met by a large contingent of soldiers at the airport in the southern city of Karachi.

The conflict between the two men developed this summer after the prime minister ordered mili-tants to withdraw from Indian territory in the Kashmir region, ending two months of bitter fight-ing with India.

blusharraf reportedly orches-trated the incursion into Kashmir, and the withdrawal of the militants was considered humiliating to Pakistan’s mili-tary.

President Clinton had negoti-ated the withdrawal with Sharif amid fears the border dispute would escalate into an all-out war between the world’s two newest nuclear powers.

Pakistan carried out its first nuclear tests in May last year, and has insisted it will maintain a nuclear arsenal to defend itself against India, which also con-ducted its first nuclear tests last year. Pakistan has fought and lost three wars with India.

A senior State Department official said the United States wants to see "the earliest possible restoration" of democracy in Pakistan. But the administration withheld an official statement on the situation as it awaited a for-mal announcement from Islamabad.

The senior official, asking not to be identified, said that during the first hours after Sharif was deposed, no U.S. embassy official had been in contact with any offi-cial of the replacement regime.

At the Pentagon, spokesman Kenneth Bacon noted that Pakistan’s nuclear program has been in the hands of the military

so the seizure of power by the Army left that situation unchanged.

Before the televised announce-ment of a military takeover, U.S. State Department spokesman James Rubin said: "If there has been a coup we would obviously seek the earliest possible restora-tion of democracy in Pakistan."

Former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, speak-ing with BBC World TV in London, said she doesn’t support coups but was sympathetic to the army’s desire to get rid of Sharif.

"My message to the army is that if you were provoked into this action the world will under-stand, if you give a firm date for fair elections and go back to the barracks."

Musharrafs address, which he delivered in English, was brief. He accused Sharif of imposing "self-serving policies ... that rocked the very foundation of the federation of Pakistan," and said the army takeover was a response to public demand.

The military takeover came after Sharif announced Musharraf’s removal and appeared on national television shaking the hand of his named replacement, Gen. Zia Uddin, head of the secret service.

Within hours, the army was fanning out in the capital and other cities. Soldiers jumped the fence around the central TV building in Islamabad and seized it, witnesses said.

Troops surrounded and closed Islamabad International Airport, while others were seen taking over the houses of several top ministers � including Foreign Minister Sartaj Aziz and Information Minister Mushahid Hussein.

International phone lines out of the capital were cut, while tele-vision began broadcasting nationalistic songs and footage of Pakistani troops and heavy armor in parades. A bank holiday was declared for Wednesday, apparently to prevent a run on the currency.

In Lahore, soldiers in jeeps and trucks took up positions on the main road and at government buildings as people celebrated and waved colored flags. There also were reports that army trucks were moving toward the airport in Lahore, the Punjab provincial capital.

Outside the seized television building in Islamabad, more than 400 people danced, waved flags and shouted, "Long live the army."

"Nawaz Sharif tried to divide the army. This was very -danger-ous. We hope the rot ends here," said one Islamabad resident, 60-year-old Ghulam Nabi Abbasi.

Continued from pg 1 Kashmir. Kashmir is a state which has been a major part of the dis-pute between India and Pakistan because of the divided line of con-trol. Pakistan presently holds 33 percent of the state of Kashmir and India holds the other 67 per-cent.

Afamjit Singh, Professor of Punjabi studies at SJSU said the conflict between the two countries has been a long one. Sharif has been considered incompetent by the people since he was unable to obtain complete control of Kashmir during his term, he said.

"I am not happy with the pre-sent government (Pakistan), the real problems are social and eco-nomical. At the people’s level there is absolutely no conflict � it is between the governments and governments are making up prob-lems," Singh said.

Some students at SJSU, who are familiar with the constant bat-tle between Pakistan and India over Kashmir said the coup was, "Politics as usual." Ankur Srivastava, a computer science sophomore said the division between India and Pakistan is not

relevant to the people. Srivastava was born in Kashmir.

"It’s kind of sad to see that these two countries aren’t getting along. We come over here and there is more unity (between Pakistani and Indian people) because we have peace," Srivastava said. According to Singh, this takeover isn’t a preface to war because it would not be in the best interest of either country since both countries are economi-cally weak.

"This will be suicidal for both countries if they decide to go to war," Singh said.

Political Science major Anil Babbar said the military coup is important to India, because if Pakistan decides to go to war for Kashmir, India will have to fight.

"It’s all about the State of Kashmir and India can’t let this go, the war will keep going," Babbar said

Vandana Kumar, managing Editor for India Currents � a San Jose magazine for south Asians � said her readers are concerned with the political unrest.

"We hope this is an internal struggle and they do what’s best for the people," Kumar said

Cancer Continued from pg 1 have picked up from there," Lising said.

At the workshop the partici-pants learned how to do self exams by using a model that showed what a cancerous breast feels like.

Jenny Lee, who is in her third year at SJSU, said she found out about breast cancer awareness month while walking by the Student Union.

" I don’t know, I don’t really worry about that because I hear it’s hereditary. And then, it’s not in my family," Lee said. "I think it’s important (self-exams), I just don’t worry about it. I have a lot of other things to really worry about, a lot more important things � like family and trying to survive, especially during col-lege."

Lee said breast cancer was important too, but it was some-thing that makes you worry, and she didn’t like worrying about things like that.

Researchers estimate that only 5 to 10 percent of breast cancers are hereditary, accord-ing to the American Cancer Society.

About eight people attended the workshop Wednesday � most of them were from the sorority.

"We don’t usually get a really good turn out unless we say we’re giving out free condoms," said Laura McGregor, team leader for women’s health at SJSU, who gave the presenta-tion.

"We do presentations all over campus, throughout the year � we do it as a service to the cam-pus because we’re part of the student health service," she said.

McGregor said some of the reasons for not doing the self exams were not having the time and thinking it would not hap-pen to them.

Some young women think that if they don’t have anyone in their family with breast cancer they will not get it and makes it

less personal, she added. She said others who are only

in their 20s think they are too young to get it. But McGregor said every woman is at risk, even she has no history of breast cancer.

"Isn’t it one of the leading causes of death?," SJSU sopho-more Soveary Che asked. "I’m more focused on other things right now � like school, work, friends, family, I think the fur-thest thing from my mind is that."

Breast cancer is the most fre-quently diagnosed non-skin can-cer among women in the United States, according to the National Cancer Institute.

"I see more and more people around me having breast cancer, especially recently," SJSU fresh-man Van Nguyen said. She said that because of her culture SI the privacy that Asian people guard, limits their knowledge of things like breast cancer.

"Not many people dare to talk about it, unless some weird thing happens to you, and you are suspicious about that, so you go get a check-up," Nguyen said.

"You don’t know what breast cancer feels like, so it’s hard to say if there’s a lump or not," she said.

Nicole Reyes, a junior and administration of justice major felt it closer to home.

"Because it was in my family, I’m more aware of it, but before, a couple of years ago, I didn’t really think much about it," Reyes said.

Although the risk of breast cancer increases as women get older, no one knows why some women get breast cancer and others do not, according to the National Cancer Institute.

The Institute has stated that many women who develop breast cancer have no known risk factors other than growing older, and many women with known risk factors do not get breast cancer.

On Oct. 17 there will be a 5K run/walk in San Francisco to benefit breast cancer research and alpha Kappa Delta Phi will be there volunteering.

San Jose Shark’s defenseman Mike Rathje knocks down and attempts to steal the puck from center Doug Weight of the Edminton Oilers Thrusday at San Jose Arena. The Sharks won 3-2 in overtime.

Sharks get off to a streaky start By D.S. Perez Daily senior staff writer

The San Jose Sharks have been streaking Istaiwipening tbs. sea-son with three wins and losing their last two games, including Monday’s 5-3 loss to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.

The Sharks suffered their sec-ond loss of the season when Anaheim scored four consecutive goals on goaltender Mike Vernon, including two ’power play goals within 53 seconds.

In previous matchups. Sharks center Mike Ricci scored two goals, including the game winner, in a 3-2 overtime match Thursday against the Edmonton Oilers.

Receiving a puss from Shark defenseman Brad Stuart, Niklas Sundstrom’s shot was blocked by Oiler goalie Ranford, but Ricci pounced on the rebound.

The victory was the first in the NHL under the new four-on-four overtime format.

The Sharks winning streak came to an end Saturday in a 3-2 loss to the Dallas Stars, the defending Stanley Cup champi-ons. Stars backup goalie Manny Fernandez blocked 24 of 26 shots, and the Sharks couldn’t muster a game-tying goal after Owen Nolan put up his sixth goal of the season late in the third period.

Overtime Thoughts Head coach Darryl Sutter isn’t

too fond of the new overtime for-mat. But he did say his team was quite lucky to catch the Oilers shorthanded for the entire over-time period.

The new NHL rule for overtime is a five-minute, sudden death period with four skaters on each

team, instead of five. If one team manages to score a winning goal, the losing team still gets a point, as if the game ended in a tie.

The Sharks, howevi r, got a four-on-three overtime period. Josef Beranek of the Oilers earned a major penalty � for checking Stuart from behind � and a game misconduct with 1.8 seconds left in regulation, giving the Sharks a five-minute power play.

"They want to play three-on-three," Sutter joked. "Exciting, I guess. But we damn near got caught (for a short handed goal) once."

Best Start Until this season, the Sharks

had never won two consecutive games to open the season, let alone three.

The Sharks are currently 3-2, and are third in the Pacific Division.

The team’s performance so far has fufl.:ed the expectations of many hockey analysts, as well as the Sharks’ players and coaches.

"Well, we talked about getting better," Sutter said.

still very young. "We have to play well in our

division," Ricci said. "Everyone in our division is winning. We have to continue to do that and capitalize on their losses."

Sharks captain Nolan believes his team has done an 180-degree turn from the Sharks’ dismal ’95-’96 season, when he first arrived.

"We want teams to chase us. We’re getting more confident ... we got a strong team and we’re doing good,"’Nolan said.

42-0 loss caps hellish roadtrip By Mike Osegueda Daily staff nrits,

Maybe it could be blamed on the Y2K scare, or maybe it was any early Halloween trick, but the Spartan football team had a trip like no other when it traveled to Texas Christian University.

"I’ve never had a trip like that," head coach Dave Baldwin said. "It was the trip from hell."

The team was scheduled to leave from San Jose State University at 8:15 a.m. Friday, but ended up having to leave half the team because the buses were late.

Luckily, everyone made the team’s flight and was well on their way to TCU, Baldwin said.

But, the bad luck wasn’t gone for the Spartans just yet. As their American Airline plane began to descend into the Dallas airport, it abruptly pulled up 10 feet away from the runway. Baldwin found out there was another plane occu-pying the runaway, thus delaying the team.

The Spartans made their way to their practice without any mishaps, but weren’t so lucky on the way back to their Arlington hotel.

The bus carrying the offensive players broke down and they had to wait on a grassy patch on the side of the road for another bus.

"We had to sit and wait for about another hour while they dropped off the defense," offensive lineman John Hammer said.

The bus then came back, picked up the rest of the team and proceeded to take them to their hotel. Things only got worse from there. The Hilton was overbooked and some players had rooms with only a bed and a couch. Not a very comfortable situation for some of the team’s 300-pound linemen.

Saturday morning prior to the game, Baldwin said he thought all the woes were gone for his team, but then the fates proved differ-ently.

"We literally got our ass kicked," Baldwin said.

The 42-0 loss wasn’t the end of the terrible trip though. The team still had to travel home.

Bad luck also struck the team’s equipment truck. It broke down and they were unable to get their gear until Sunday morning.

To top it all off, Baldwin was unable to participate in his post-game ritual television watching. Baldwin said he couldn’t sleep that night. So, he turned on the TV to watch other scores from around the nation, only to find that his television set didn’t work.

No Looking Back

With the hellish road trip and the hellish loss behind them, the Spartans insist on looking for-ward to this week’s contest with Rice University.

Baldwin said the players were

not going to review the game film, a first for SJSU.

"We’re not looking back," Baldwin said. "We’re not going to second guess ourselves."

The loss to TCU doesn’t damper the team’s Western Athletic Conference hopes as much as it might initially appear.

Baldwin said he believed all along that no team would go undefeated in the conference, but now they must make the team’s conference contests count.

Rice head coach Ken Hatfield agreed that the WAC picture still has a lot of developing to do.

"I don’t look that far ahead," Hatfield said. "There are a num-ber of teams out there that can win this championship."

Baldwin said a crucial step for the Spartans’ championship hopes will be getting their first road win against Rice.

Unlike other road trips, Baldwin said the team will not practice in Rice Stadium before they step on to the field at 11:00 a.m. Texas time on Saturday.

Baldwin said the move was a unique one, but he doesn’t want the players practicing the night before such an early game.

Usually the team arrives earli-er in the day to practice the morn-ing before the game, but in this case the Spartans’ flight will not reach Houston until 6:30 p.m.

Rice’s team may have trouble adjusting back to their home field as well. Coming off of a 38-19 vic-tory against the University of Hawai’i, the team had a long jour-ney home. The Owls didn’t return to Houston until Monday morning and in turn, missed a day of prac-tice. Hatfield said the missed day won’t mess up his game plan.

"I think we’ll be in good shape," Hatfield said.

The game will be shown live at 9 a.m. on Fox Sports Bay Area.

Whitaker Update

Deonce Whitaker is still nurs-ing the sprained ankle he suffered in the Tulsa University game.

Baldwin said he thought the tailback would be ready to go for the TCU game, but learned quick-ly that Whitaker was not at full strength. The No. 11 rusher in the nation only carried the ball five times for seven yards.

This week, Baldwin said the team will prepare for the game with the mentality that Whitaker will not be available.

"We’re going in with the idea that he can’t play this week," Baldwin said. "It’ll be a plus the other way if he can."

Darian Morton, Patrick Battle and Roger Ratliff have all seen time in the absence of Whitaker. Morton made the most of his time rushing for 105 yards against Stanford.

John Hammer said regardless of who is in the backfield the offensive line will do its job and make the holes.

"We have a lot of confidence in our (running) backs," Hammer said. "We just have to step it up as an offensive line and make bigger holes."

Injury Update

Against TCU, Steven Pulley, Tim Provost and Sean Brewer were added to the list of injured Spartans, proving the team is beat up going into its contest with Rice.

Pulley garnered much of the Baldwin’s worries after injuring his same leg in two places. Pulley suffered a left knee injury and has a sore ankle, making him "possi-ble" for Saturday’s game. Brewer bruised his left knee and Provost injured his left shin in the TCU game. Both are listed as "proba-ble."

Offensive guard Jose Gomez reinjured his right knee in prac-tice last week and probably will not see action. Carlos Koustas’ sprained right shoulder will put him on the sideline as well.

The only probable returner to the Spartan lineup will be �line-backer Floyd Johnson. Johnson missed the TCU game after going down in the Stanford game.

Butler Continued from pg 1

through three seasons in the Student Touring Ensemble Program (STEP). "It’s a real open environment for an actor to take risks and you can’t really grow as an actor unless you are taking risks."

With "Shakespeare’s Shorts," Butler - who arrived at SJSU in 1991 from the Denver Center for Performing Arts - embarked on a mission to deliver the works of 14th-century writer William Shakespeare to children and adults who have not yet embraced his works, he said.

To do this, Butler has taken many ingredients from popular culture and multiculturalism and thrown them onto a plate with snippets of Shakespeare’s works.

"My hope is that people who see the show will go back and say ’You know what? Maybe I can read Shakespeare. Shakespeare is not so dull,’ "said Butler, who original-ly designed the show for fourth to 12th graders.

The cutting and pasting that Butler does is based on the crowd’s reaction to STEP’s performances of the play, he said.

"A lot of the time when you are working on a show the director has a real set, solid vision of exact-ly how he wants the show to be and you try to work within those parameters," Lindsay said. "With Buddy, usually what it’s about, is creativity on the part of the actor."

On Thursday, Butler stood just inside the entrance of the University Theatre, staring

intently at the events unfolding on stage. Like a spotlight, he scanned the room at different times to dis-cern the audience’s reaction to his work.

His expression never seemed to change as actors whizzed by him and out the door.

On the opening night perfor-mance of STEP’s "Shakespeare’s Shorts," Butler was even more watchful of the events as they unfolded, said actress Huynh, who has been with STEP since the Spring semester, 1998.

"It’s funny because he was sit-ting up there with our theatre manager and he was still taking notes about seuff we can improve on," Huynh said. "And when things weren’t working right he would sit there and start cussing."

"Every director will go through all that. If something in your show is not clicking right you want to swear," she said.

Butler’s first acting role, at the age of 8, involved very little, if any, cutting and pasting on his part. The script called for him to die in the first act of the play. He was offered this role as he was brows-ing through the comic book section of a local drugstore.

A woman invited him to partic-ipate in a production that was run-ning at the Karamu House, which was right around the corner from his Cleveland residence. The Karamu House is the oldest run-ning black theatre in the country, Butler said.

Although he died in the first act, Butler knew his life would play out in many more acts because he had found his passion. The 8-year-old kid began his development as a theater actor by becoming actively involved in chil-

dren’s theater, he said. "My mother was always sup-

portive of me being in the theater," Butler said. "She never said ’Do something else when you grow up,’ but other family members thought I was crazy."

The spirit of multiculturalism that is evident in Butler’s plays was nurtured in the Karamu House. Before Butler became involved with theater he hadn’t had much interaction with other ethnicities. Cleveland was divided into black and white sections, but the theater was the place where they all came together, he said.

His latest play is diverse not only in its makeup but in the ideas that it carries. The cast includes a mix of Asian, Caucasian, Latino and African-American actors. The influence of Mexican culture is evident in some of the scenes, where Mexican accents and lan-guage was mixed in. Hip-hop cul-ture, a branch of the African-American musical tradition, was represented in one scene where actor Omar Miller rapped about Shakespeare’s "Othello."

"When we go out on tour I want to be sure that every kid who sits in the audience will look on stage and say ’Oh, there is someone who looks like me, somebody who sounds like me and somebody who feels what I feel,’ "said Butler.

STEP was nominated for a diversity award this year.

More seasoning was added to Butler’s rising theater career at the age of 12.

He turned professional and soon went to New York to audition for the role of the little boy in Lorraine Hansberry’s "A Raisin in the Sun." He ended up as the understudy for the part in the first

run of the production in 1959. The play received national acclaim and won several awards.

"A Raisin in the Sun" is a story about a black family who is strug-gling to climb the social ladder in the midst of racial discrimination. The family dreams of moving into a new home and better neighbor-hood, but just as this dream is within reach the opportunity dries up.

"She (Lorraine Hansberry) is probably the one who got me polit-ically motivated," Butler said. "That (play) added greatly to what my political mindset was about race and discrimination."

Staff Writers Liz Cloutman, Christina Lucarotti and Charmain Smith contributed to this report.

One of the ways Butler said he has kept in touch with the mindset of today’s popular culture is through his son. He said his son, who is now a college freshman and actor, used to have friends over at their house all the time and Buddy became "one of the guys."

Butler also listens to students. "A lot of corny ideas, he took

Hamlet, during his visit to the tra-ditional black college, Howard University, turned him onto Shakespeare forever. He decided to leave Ohio University, where he attended one semester on a track scholarship, to study Shakespeare.

"It was a little stuffy, but I saw some things with it," Butler said. "Since then, I’ve just been totally turned onto it. I love his words. I think its timeless. I think it can be multicultural."

Now it has become his mission to win people over to Shakespeare as Howard University did for him, even if it means using cheesy lines such as "Pizza, Pizza!"

Chamberlain dead at 63 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Wilt

Chamberlain, who dominated basketball - once scoring 100 points in a single game - and later stirred controversy with boasts of his sexual exploits, died Tuesday. He was 63.

A Fire Department spokesman said the indications were a possi-

ble heart attack. Chamberlain was hospitalized with an irregu-lar heart beat in 1992.

Chamberlain, the mighty 7-foot-1 center whose single-game scoring record hasn’t even been threatened, was found dead by rescuers called to his home in Bel-Air shortly after noon.
