Many student leaders on cam-pus who will yell at the top of their lungs or wave fluorescent fliers in your face come Sunday got their start the same way.

Walking through the displays of over 600 organizations on a steamy afternoon can be daunt-ing, student leaders say, but a worthwhile experience. The Dai-ly Illini spoke with campus lead-ers about what they had to say of their Quad Day experiences.

Student trustee David Piles-ki, who also served as student body president last year: “Quad Day (my freshman year) was very overwhelming. I did follow up on student government. But I enjoyed that I had an oppor-tunity to talk with the student body president, who was Brad-ley Tran. I definitely was inter-ested (because of previous expe-rience) because I wanted to see what student government looks like on this campus.

“This is a really cool thing. I’ve been able to learn from oth-er Big Ten campuses that there are similar events, but nothing is the same.”

Illini Democrats President Sha-na Harrison: “I went with a room-mate and was walking past the political booths and registered to vote. (Illini Democrats) was the one that really stuck with me. ... I started out as a business major and got involved with College Democrats. And I also interned for Sen. Mike Frerichs (D-52) and enjoyed the political campaigns and that really got me thinking about changing my major.”

Illini Republicans Presi-dent Despina Batson didn’t get involved with her organization until sophomore year. She said if students don’t find what they

are looking for on Quad Day, they should keep looking because there are many different clubs on campus, and more likely than not, one group will fit what a student is looking for.

“It was more for me a test of things and seeing what I want-ed to do,” she said about her experience.

Quad Day offers much more than government opportunities, however. There are many types of organizations, everything from philanthropic to athletic clubs.

Ashley Lee, president of the campus chapter of Habitat for Humanity: “For my freshmen year, I actually stumbled upon Habitat for Humanity when I came here. But the reason why I was so interested in Habitat was because back in high school, I went on my own trip (with class-mates). ... I shared that experi-ence with the people on the Quad, and I got into Habitat then.

“I wanted a nice activity that I could do for fun but also have my love for volunteer work. I looked for a bunch of organizations that stood out.”

Despite being the largest RSO on campus, Illini Pride is always looking for new members. Quad Day has always been an oppor-tunity to get a feel for the group, President Daniel Borup said.

“When I was a freshman, I wanted to join the Orange Krush, but I was given a flier about the annual kickoff event, (which got me involved with future events). ... The kickoff and the Illini Pride website are the best ways to get information. And Quad Day is a good time to ask if you have questions.”

Fraternities and sororities also have recruitment initiatives in full swing.

Tyler Sendt, president of the University’s Interfraternity Council: “There are a lot of fra-ternity booths (south of Foel-linger Auditorium). But I went around and talked to a lot of guys to learn what fraternities are all about ... and what they are doing to help the campus and commu-nity. I signed up to Rush a few to see where I could see myself being.”

Quad Day serves as beginning to campus leadershipMany top RSO leaders got their starts on Quad Day not long ago

Some registered student organiza-tions are going beyond the typical 10-foot square this year to promote their orga-nization at Quad Day. A demonstration area will be added to the event Sunday where organizations can showcase larg-er, nonstandard displays.

From noon to 4 p.m., the Quad will host over 600 RSO displays and performances to promote the various extracurricular opportunities on campus. Most organi-zations will be arranged in categories throughout the Quad, labeled by color-ful 17-foot banners, said Scott Carrico, Quad Day coordinator.

Quad Day is the biggest recruiting day of the year for RSOs to fi nd new mem-

bers who will keep their organization going for the next four or more years, Carrico said.

The area behind Foellinger Hall will have a Campus Recreation portable rock-climbing wall, Greek organization booths and live DJ from WPGU. (Like The Daily Illini, WPGU is a part of the Illini Media Company.)

In the courtyard between Noyes Lab-oratory and Davenport Hall on the east side of the Quad, 20 organizations will occupy the new demonstration area. Carrico said for a larger application fee, organizations could choose a larg-er space for more interactive displays.

Illini Pride Student Athletic Board president Daniel Borup, senior in Engi-neering, said Quad Day is the best

chance to get the group’s name out, espe-cially to new students. They wanted an opportunity to promote the organization beyond standing at a table handing out fl yers, he said.

Illini Pride will host giveaways and contests at their trailer, which will be parked in their spot on the Quad. Illini football and basketball players will par-ticipate in games at the trailer through-out the day, such as shooting games or tailgate style games, Borup said. Prizes will include T-shirts, candy and other free swag.

The Illini Automotive Club also want-ed a larger space to showcase their work. Alex Kim, former president of the club and recent graduate, plans to park its club vehicle for display in their spot.

Members of the club acquired the vehi-cle for a low price and are working on fi xing it up for an autocross race in Ran-toul Labor Day weekend. The display will include videos of autocross and car main-tenance demonstrations, such as check-ing a car’s oil and changing a fl at tire.

“We will be able to showcase the core value of our club, which is all about inter-acting with cars, driving and engineer-ing,” Kim said.

The only obstacle: getting the car on the Quad before pedestrians wake up around 7 a.m.

The Illini Bodybuilding Club will use their demonstration area to get more stu-dents interested in becoming more fi t, said club founder James Adams, gradu-ate student in accounting.

“We’re going to have some members pose and show off a little bit,” Adams said.

They also plan on bringing a set of dumbbells to demonstrate lifting tech-niques. This is the third year Adams set up a booth at Quad Day, which he said helps attract new members.

Other demonstrations include mini performances by The What You Will Shakespeare Company and a photo tour of Greece by the Hellenic Student Association.

“I think both for new students and returning students, (Quad Day) is a great opportunity — it’s the biggest one-stop shop for RSOs,” Carrico said.

Taste of Nevada puts cultural houses on display, provides Quad Day after-partyBY ALISON MARCOTTEASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR

After spending the afternoon weaving through crowds on the Quad and getting a noticeable sun-tan, you’re bound to work up an appe-tite. Luckily, Nevada Street offers just the solution.

I-Celebrate’s Taste of Nevada offers free food, entertainment and tours of the University’s cul-tural houses that populate Nevada Street.

“We try to get students exposed to a lot of different things and meet new people (during Welcome Week), and they do that through the Taste of Nevada,” said Gina Lee-Olukoya, associate dean of students.

The event is sponsored by New Student Programs and the Offi ce of Inclusion and Intercultural Rela-tions and takes place from 4-6 p.m. Sunday.

The festival showcases the Bruce D. Nesbitt African American Cul-tural Center, the Asian American Cultural Center, La Casa Cultural Latina, the LGBT Resource Cen-ter, Native American House, the Women’s Resource Center and the Diversity and Social Justice Educa-tion group.

The Taste of Nevada features eth-nic food provided by vendors from the Champaign-Urbana community, Lee-Olukoya said.

Veronica Kann, interim direc-tor of La Casa, said a combination between savory dishes and desserts will be featured at the festival. One example is empanadas, a traditional Spanish stuffed pastry.

Coralie Morauw, graduate stu-dent and former NSP coordinator, reminisced of her Taste of Nevada experience from last year. The fes-tival included games such as Gui-tar Hero, a blow-up obstacle course and a water balloon toss, “which was really nice because it was so warm, so you kind of wanted it to pop on you,” she said. This year, festival goers can play Wii, and two DJs will provide music, Lee-Olukoya said.

Taste of Nevada is an early and easily accessible opportunity to introduce students to the Univer-sity’s cultural programs. Students can learn about the cultural centers not only through the cuisine but also through tours, presentations and one-on-one talks with staff.

“Part of it is to get students who may not normally come to the cultur-al houses to visit us and see what we

have to offer,” Kann said. “We’ll have students and staff working that day, talking a little bit about the history of La Casa, and talking about the kind of events and programs we have, so it’s just a chance for students to get to know us and see what we do.”

Taste of Nevada is a great addition to Quad Day, Morauw said.

“It’s a good complement in the sense that people are just going to keep walking (after Quad Day ends) and then notice it’s there and see food and music,” she said. “It’s kind of like an after-party to the Quad Day.”

Because of the logistical require-ments, the festival takes months of planning and preparation. However, the hardworking individuals in NSP, OIRR and other units have made the planning process easier, Lee-Olu-koya said.

“At the University of Illinois, we have some amazing, talented pro-fessionals and students. Everyone has taken up their responsibilities, and so everything has been executed really well,” she said. “I think when-ever you have a committee that has that kind of synergy where people know their jobs and do them really well ... it makes it a lot easier to do.”

YOUR VOICE

“I think one year someone was giving away Frisbees. So that was good because it didn’t just sit there in my dorm room — I actually used it, so that was probably one of the best things I got.”

LAURA BUNGE, Cru Campus Ministry

“The best thing I’ve ever gotten was free pizza as well as a lot of information on different clubs that I end up joining and sticking with and progressing in them.”

ROBERT EMMONS, sophomore in LAS

“There’s a ton of stuff. Everywhere’s got Frisbees. It’s something everybody’s gonna end up using. You just play around on the Quad, and then you get a ton of stuff you can’t even describe it.”

This Sunday is my last and fi nal Quad Day. While I typical-ly complain about fi ghting the

masses on my last day of summer to help man the Illini Women’s Soccer Club booth, this year I can’t com-plain about the crowds and chaos and all the hoopla.

Senior year nostalgia is already set-ting in, and the semester hasn’t even technically begun.

Instead of seeing Quad Day as the hot, sticky afternoon fi lled with eager-beaver freshmen jostling each other

for a spot on the sidewalk that it is, I now see it as an opportunity for fresh-men to fi nd their fi t and/or friends for the next four years.

Though I didn’t know it at the time, that’s what I found three years ago with IWSC (can’t help but soak in the sentimentality) and what I wish for all freshies to fi nd this year.

Rather than give advice to the incoming class who will be wander-ing around the Main Quad this Sun-day a little lost and overwhelmed, here’s some quick tips for fellow veterans as how to welcome those fresh faces and encourage them to pencil in their email addresses at your booth.

1.) Know the difference between friendly and forceful.

Smiling goes a long way. Chant-

ing, on the other hand, not so much. If you look like you’re having a good time, the new kids are going to be interested all on their own with-out the pomp and circumstance. Be helpful, clever, but avoid pressur-ing and presuming too much. This is show and tell, not drill.

2.) Dress to impress.Cool club T-shirts win early big

points with freshmen who can’t wait to show the world they’re part of something. Especially once all the Greek brouhaha begins, freshmen not Rushing will want to spring for some new apparel to speak for their social life.

3.) Say it, don’t spray it (Self-explanatory.)

4.) Bring a dog. Everybody loves dogs.

My sophomore year, a senior on my team brought her dog, Gunner, with her to Quad Day. To put it sim-ply, Gunner was gold. Nobody could resist that guy (I still miss him) and his presence was more than wel-coming. A great way to break the ice and instantly bond. Dog lovers unite!

5.) Bring food. Everybody loves food.

People connect over cupcakes. I’m almost sure this would be sci-entifi cally proven, if someone were ever to test it. And if they’re for free? There are very few things on this earth more alluring than free baked goods. Take advantage of this.

Bring a dog, bake and dress well:5 tips for veterans of Quad Day

Quad Day not only way to get involved with RSOs this semester

“Oh no, I’m going to miss Quad Day this year because my professor already assigned us to read the

fi rst four chapters of our textbook, I’ve got a job interview, and I still have to fi nish buying my school supplies before classes start,” a frantically over-scheduled go-getter may be thinking this Sunday.

Quad Day certainly isn’t a day anyone should want to miss, particularly if you plan on collecting free pens, food, tees and a bag full of fl iers from all the Registered Student Organizations.

So what should you do to fi nd the RSO of your dreams when you can’t head out to the Quad to dig up those diamonds in the rough?

First, think hard about your interests. Students join clubs for a number of reasons, whether it is to fi nd a way to build their network of drinking buddies, add a few more lines to an already stellar resume, or fi nd a place to blow off some steam after a stressful week of headache-inducing tests and project deadlines.

After coming up with a few ideas, consider your time management ability and rank your interests, crossing off those that you don’t have time to join.

The key to fi nding what interests you the most is to do your research. Google search the RSOs, talk to your friends or ask your professors or advisers. RSOs are searchable by name at Illinois.collegiatelink.net .

Let’s say, for example, you relish at the thought of serving your community through a variety of volunteer projects. A simple web search of “volunteering at UIUC” turns up the website for the Offi ce of Volunteer Programs , which is an invaluable resource for fi nding organizations that facilitate volunteer work.

Beyond Internet searches, there are several smaller events throughout the school year that serve more focused interests, including the Volunteer Fair . The Illini Union boasts another fair later in the year indoors for RSOs to advertise their clubs once more.

Additionally, the Illini Union has the RSO Complex on the second fl oor of the north side , where many of the larger organizations have cubicles. Students are always welcome to fi nd an organization there and ask about joining.

Throughout the year, clubs and organizations will also post fl iers advertising their causes or notifying students about upcoming events and meetings. These fl iers can be found throughout the University inside classrooms or on designated billboards inside of campus buildings.

Another popular way that clubs advertise for themselves is via chalking, whereby RSOs will write out their messages on sidewalks or on the sides of buildings.

What is most important is that you be proactive about fi nding clubs early in the semester because some organizations will not allow you to join after the fi rst few weeks. Sometimes you will have to wait until the start of the next semester or even the next school year.

Hope isn’t lost if you can’t attend Quad Day – as valuable of a resource that it is – but by researching and creative thinking, you will be able to fi nd the perfect RSO.

Exotic petting zoo, local food, live music to be featured at 37th Annual Urbana Sweetcorn FestivalBY JORDAN SWARDFEATURES EDITOR

The 37th annual Urbana Sweetcorn Festival will round out the summer this weekend with live music, food, beer and more. New to the festival this year: an exotic petting zoo.

Friday from 5 to 11 p.m. and Satur-day from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., the Sweet-

corn Festival will take over down-town Urbana on Main Street between Race and Vine Streets. Admission to the event is free and open to the public.

For the fi rst time, the festival will include an exotic petting zoo this year with kangaroos, a camel and other barnyard animals, said Cynthia John-

son, executive director of the Urba-na Business Association, who plans the event. The zoo will be located on South Broadway Street, just north of Elm Street.

Johnson said the festival is a fam-ily friendly event, but also provides adult entertainment such as a wres-tling show Friday night.

The plans also include more nation-ally recognized bands than in past years. Firehouse will perform Satur-day night at 7:30 p.m. and pop-metal ‘80s band Warrant will take the stage at 9:15 p.m.

Food options at the festival include barbecue, Greek, funnel cakes, Thai food and sweet corn.

Reality check: Find balance between school, clubs

When I arrived at my fi rst Quad Day three years ago, I immediately took

note of the crowd. The vast crowd of what appeared to be thousands of carefree students, not yet daunted by the burdens of organic chemistry labs or analyzing Faulkner novels.

Next, I gaped at the num-ber of student organizations the University has to offer. As I looked on at the line of tables that weaved through the Quad, I knew I would ultimately have to make a choice.

Do I sip cider under the autumn leaves with the Octo-ber Lovers group? Do I boldly relive my brief (and embarrass-ing) stint as an “actress” in mid-dle school? In truth, I wanted to do everything, and for a while, that’s exactly what I did.

Reality soon hit, however, and I was forced to fi nd a balance between my extracurricular, academic and social lives. My experience has taught me that the following tips can help you

enjoy your time at the Universi-ty and maintain your sanity.

Do what’s most importantAs a journalism major, my

No. 1 priority coming to school was to get involved with campus media opportunities. Anyone who plans to pursue an industry where internships and network-ing can make or break your career should also fi nd an Regis-ter Student Organization to ful-fi ll these needs.

If a major-related group is number one on your list, make sure to fi nd others that are also important to you. Getting involved is more that just net-working for career purposes. It’s about forming friendship and dare I say it, enjoying life.

Whatever you have a passion for, you almost certainly will be able to fi nd two or three organi-zations on campus.

Get organizedGetting involved in student

clubs requires dedication and organization. With tests, papers and group projects sprinkled in with RSO fundraisers, lectures and socials, it becomes crucial to structure your days.

This not only enables you do

you work effectively and effi -ciently, but it also prevents cha-os and stress from mounting in to your life.

Don’t overwhelm yourselfAt one point in my college

career, I wrote for four differ-ent campus publications, partici-pated in four more organizations that catered to other interests, and attended school at the same time.

Needless to say I found myself lacking sleep and energy (not to mention a social life).

I thought I needed to cram a bunch of activities to distinguish myself in the journalism indus-try and to meet new people.

It’s easy to become fi xated on the idea that you have to com-pete with hundreds or even thousands of peers. I’ve found that it’s better to excel and enjoy two or three extracurricular groups than to take on a bunch of things that you can only dedi-cated a small percentage of your life to.

Factor in “me” timeBy the time I reached the end

of my sophomore year of school, I realized that I hadn’t read a book for fun in over a year.

I hadn’t gone to a musical, or baked, or done any of the things that are such an important part of who I am.

I got so caught up in trying to connect with my fellow students

that I completely left out the time I need to just be alone and regroup. We live in a time when everyone is constantly on the go, always plugged in to the web, that we never just sit back and

enjoy the quiet.Trust me when I say tuning

out, even for just a little while, can do you a world of good.

RSOs compete to attract new members with break dancing, fashionBY CANDICE NORWOODASSISTANT FEATURE EDITOR

With more than 1,000 organiza-tions on campus all vying for the attention of potential new mem-bers with limited free time, Quad Day becomes a battleground of sorts.

Blood and metal armor aside (well, for the most part), student leaders decorate posters, choreo-graph skits and rest their voic-es each year in preparation for the University’s annual RSO showdown.

It comes down to strategic planning and enthusiasm, really. Which group can reach the most people? Which is the most color-ful or shocking?

Whether an organization has been established on campus for nearly a century or will make its debut this year, Quad Day is very important for any group looking

to have a lasting and effective his-tory on campus.

The Philippine Student Associ-ation is one of the older RSOs on campus and will celebrate its 93rd anniversary this year.

According to Cheryl DeGuz-man, senior in Education and PSA president, the organization cel-ebrates Filipino culture and pro-vides Filipino students on campus networking, academic and social opportunities.

“We’ve done a lot of fun events in the past. One of my favorites is the Rice Bowl, where members of different PSA groups compete in football tournaments,” DeGuz-man said. “Another is Battle of the Bamboo, which is a cultur-al dance competition sponsored by (the University of Illinois at Chicago).”

The group’s preparations for Quad Day begin over the sum-

mer, when PSA’s 12 offi cers go on a retreat to reconnect and plan for the upcoming year.

Quad Day gives current PSA members the opportunity to speak one-on-one with students and explain what the organization is all about.

“We get pretty excited about the event,” DeGuzman said. “We always try to fi nd a way to ask the students questions and show the ways they can benefi t from our group. We also stress that you don’t have to be Filipino to join. We’re just looking for enthusias-tic people interested in learning about the culture.”

In addition to many cultural organizations, Quad Day attend-ees will fi nd performing arts groups captivating students with creative costumes and routines.

Floor Lovers Illinois is a break-dancing organization that per-

forms around the Champaign-Urbana area and hosts two major competitions throughout the year.

During the fall, Floor Lovers partners with the Illini Union for the Schoolyard Brawl, which showcases high school and col-lege “b-boys” as they compete in a two-on-two dance battle.

The organization’s spring event, ILL-Breaks brings teams from throughout the Midwest and judg-es from across the world.

On Quad Day, the Floors Lov-ers can be found jamming to the sounds of DJs in their sister orga-nization, UC Hip-Hop Congress.

Tushar Nagananda, senior in Engineering and president of Floor Lovers, encourages students of any skill level to join the group.

“When I fi rst started, I knew nothing about break dancing,” Nagananda said. “Learning how to break-dance is like learning

anything else. If you put the time and effort into it, you’re going to get better.”

Another creative RSO is The Fashion School, a new group debuting at this year’s Quad Day.

Rather than relying on fl ashy decorations or performances, The Fashion School’s founder, Jessie Whitman, said word of mouth is the best way to promote her group. She plans to use her connections on campus to spread the news and put together events.

The junior in Media is a fash-ion blogger who has participated in a number of fashion groups on campus and has interned for Bel-la Mia boutique in Champaign,AKIRA in Chicago and Vanity Fair magazine.

Whitman said her desire to start the club stemmed from a void she saw within the campus community.

“With a lot of the fashion groups I was involved in on campus, there was never much of an education given about the industry,” Whitman said. “I’m not claiming to be an expert, but I’ve had a lot of different opportuni-ties in fashion, and I think I can provide some insight into the business.”

The Fashion School will offer sessions on prominent fash-ion designers and photogra-phers as well as information on how to get involved in different aspects of the industry from busi-ness to public relations to fashion journalism.

These groups will be just sev-eral of hundreds looking to fi nd a new crop of eager students to eventually take over the reigns of the organization. The ultimate question for the event is which will win you over?

Wearing bright orange shirts, Illinois students helped freshmen and their parents move in to Uni-versity residence halls on Thursday, at one point chanting the I-L-L-I-N-I cheer.

These student volunteers, or I-Guides, helped to pack the students’ belongings into carts and roll them into the dorms.

“It’s this huge machine that is moving in tens of thousands of students,” said Kurt Hansen, I-Guide hall coordinator and junior in ACES. “We get ready all year for these past two weeks.”

As hall coordinator, his duties included making sure there were enough I-Guides present at each dormitory and supervising the operation. Han-sen and the I-Guides he supervised were keep-ing busy but also having a good time moving in the freshmen.

Asia Borjas, sophomore in LAS, said she enjoyed assisting the freshmen in move-in because she liked to “tell them about (her) experiences.”

I-Guides, she said, are often the fi rst people at the University to make impressions on new students.

Krishan Thakkar, junior in Business, also vol-unteered. Thakkar said that despite the credit he earned from his fraternity for volunteer hours, he worked as an I-Guide because he enjoyed helping other students.

“I just do this for the fun,” he said.

Hansen said they sometimes run into problems, but having committed I-Guides helps the team get through challenges.

“There’s always things that don’t go right,” said Hansen. “But we have fantastic I-Guides.”

Nathan Burklund, freshman in LAS, said he found move-in to be a smooth process, especially with the help of I-Guides.

“(Moving in) was actually a lot easier than I expected,” Burklund said.

With signs in hand reading “Chop from the top,” Univer-sity employees rallied against pay differences between union members and administrators out-side the Ikenberry Commons on Thursday.

Union members said the Uni-versity is using the recession as an excuse to decrease their pay and benefi ts while giving raises to administrators.

Ricky Baldwin, fi eld organiz-er for the local Service Employ-ees International Union, said that during ongoing negotiations the University has threatened to cut pay and eliminate holidays off. He also said the University has said union requests, such as posting a list of who’s been paid overtime, are “too much trouble”

and could be done only if unions accept pay decreases.

“We know that the University doesn’t need to do this because it’s not broke,” he said.

Jim McGuire is the president of the local chapter of the Amer-ican Federation of State, Coun-ty and Municipal Employees, which represents some Univer-sity workers. He said the Uni-versity claims during negotia-tions that its $5 billion operating budget for fi scal year 2012 can’t be spent on raises, benefi ts or new hires. However, McGuire said part of $1.96 billion in unre-stricted funds could be used for union raises. The University had an increase of $109 million, or 5.9 percent, in unrestricted funds since fi scal year 2011, according to the executive summary for the 2012 operating budget.

Campus spokeswoman Robin Kaler said the University does not comment on specifi cs of ongo-ing negotiations.

“The University does every-thing it can to provide for all equitable packages for all their employees,” she said.

But McGuire said the Univer-sity isn’t bargaining fairly. He cited the University’s $175,000 severance package for Lisa Troy-er, former chief of staff to for-mer President Michael Hogan, along with Hogan’s paid sab-batical as examples of the Uni-versity’s willingness to pay top administrators.

Union workers have been expected to do more work to make up for lost employees while receiving pay cuts and furlough days, McGuire said. He said this has resulted in dirtier buildings

and a worse educational experi-ence for students.

McGuire also said the Uni-versity argues for budget parity when dealing with the state but rejects the argument in negotia-tions with union members.

The University has trouble hiring nurses, McGuire said, because of the low wages it offers in an area with two large hospitals.

Margaret Lewis, library employee and AFSCME member, said her union has been in con-tract negotiations since August 2011. She said members of her union have not received across-the-board raises since 2008 and thinks the University’s employ-ees should receive the pay they deserve.

“We want a contract, and we want a raise,” she said.

Farmers’ summer yield hurt by droughtBY CLAIRE EVERETTSTAFF WRITER

While the harsh weather conditions this summer may have allowed for extra pool days, the drought has also caused harsh-er repercussions for Midwestern farmers and other agriculture industries.

According to the National Weather Ser-vice, this has been the worst drought in the country since 1988.

“Droughts happen periodically,” said Patrick Bak, a meteorologist at the Nation-al Weather Service in Lincoln, Ill. “But they don’t last forever and things tend to balance out in time.”

However, this summer’s drought has caused corn yields to decrease substan-tially, hurting profi ts for farmers and dry-ing out their fi elds and pastures. Since Illi-nois tends to have very rich soil, several farms do not have irrigation systems to combat the effects of the dry conditions.

Adam Sommer, sophomore in ACES, said his family never had a need for an irrigation system at their farm in north-west Illinois until the drought this sum-mer. In hopes of seeing more green, they decided to spray nitrogen on their fi elds but when no green appeared — “basi-cally the only thing left to do was sit and wait for rain to come,” Sommers said.“We can plant again and hope that the next year is better.”

Although Sommers’ family will not know the full impact of the drought on

the farm’s yields and profi ts until the end of harvest, Sommers estimates they will only break even or make a slight profi t. Sommers said that as a result of the fed-eral crop insurance program, the losses could have been worse.

“Some farmers around us have to go into town and get a job,” Sommers said. “We’ll be all right, but a lot of people won’t.”

Claire Benjamin, president of the RSO Agricultural Communicators of Tomor-row and junior in ACES, said her family is facing signifi cant yield loss and is thank-ful for the insurance they have.

“Several farmers I have spoken to are reporting zero yields in some fi elds — an occurrence I had never even heard of before,” Benjamin said.

Many farmers throughout the Mid-west have been forced to sell their cat-tle because of the expense of bringing in outside water as well as paying for feed. Feed has increased in cost because corn prices have gone up more than 50 percent since mid-June, reaching $8.50 a bushel this month.

Corn prices have not only taken a toll on hungry cattle but have also contrib-uted to the closing of six ethanol plants. Bob Dinneen, CEO of the national trade group the Renewable Fuels Association, said ethanol production has dropped 20 percent nationally since the beginning of this year.

This summer’s drought has catalyzed a series of issues for the agricultural mar-ket, which consequently ties into several other markets in the country.

As for now, Bak said the drought has not yet improved in Illinois, but he pre-dicts things will get better by fall.

Creating life-saving smart-phone applications, structural analyses of engines and agri-cultural farm models are all in a day’s work for the motivat-ed student interns at Research Park.

The University’s Research Park is a community of about 90 technology-based businesses that work with faculty and stu-dent interns to collaborate on research projects. Internships at Research Park are typical-ly yearlong opportunities that require students to work 10 to 15 hours per week during the semester and full-time hours in the summer. Graduate student

An na Oldani was an interns this summer.

“We do real work that the com-pany actually uses in their prod-ucts,” Oldani said. “If you mess up, you are held accountable for it.”

Oldani said the benefi ts of having an internship through Research Park include sched-ule fl exibility, payment and work experience. She was recently hon-ored at an annual intern recogni-tion event for her contributions to the Caterpillar Inc. design group.

Another intern, graduate student Dani el Herber, devel-oped farm models for Deere & Company, also known as John Deere. His models were recog-nized as best tech innovation in

Research Park at the recogni-tion event.

Interns with Deere & Co. work in various areas of exper-tise, including engineering, library sciences and robotics departments.

Students in each department get experience that is similar to that of full-time positions.

“It felt kind of like you were in an industry experience right away with lots of people who have already done a lot of things in the industry and have lots of experience,” Herber said.

Herber said he enjoyed the laid-back feel of his internship with Deere & Co.

“The experience here is kind of isolated from the headquar-

ters of some of these compa-nies,” he said. “It’s a little more relaxed, and that, to me, is more fun.”

Intern Jib o He conducted research on insurance auto quotes as an intern for State Farm through Research Park. He said he enjoyed that the internship was customizable.

“They give a lot of freedom,” he said. “You can propose your research work and do whatever you want.”

He stressed the importance of persistence when seek-ing an internship at Research Park. He applied to be a State Farm intern twice before he was offered a position in May 2011. State Farm reviewed over

200 applications that year for 80 intern positions.

At the end of the summer, He was named the most valuable graduate in Research Park for coding a life-saving insurance application available for iPhone and Android phones.

“I think it is one of the best memories that occurred to me in Champaign,” He said. “It’s a kind of recognition for my hard work.”

For most students, more important than any award is the real-world experience.

“It’s a different kind of work,” Oldani said. “You feel really empowered that you’re doing something real and not just a homework problem.”

Convocation to welcome freshmen

Interns have much to gain at Research Park

BY CARINA LEESTAFF WRITER

In addition to being welcomed to campus at Convocation, Uni-versity freshmen can also partic-ipate in an attempt to set a world record for shucking the most ears of corn simultaneously. The event will follow Convocation and take place at 12:30 p.m. on the west side of Memorial Stadium.

“We do this every year with the ‘Guinness Book of World Records,’” said Renee Roma-no, vice chancellor for student affairs. “Last year, we made the world’s largest smoothie.”

The 330-gallon smoothie broke the world record last year, and this year they hope to break a record again.

Despite the fun activity, the

main focus will be giving the Class of 2016 guidance and advice on how to make their four years at the University meaningful.

Romano said preparation for convocation is going well.

“We have been planning since way back in January,” Romano said. “As we get closer to the event, the planning gets more intense. ... We are in good shape for tomorrow.”

At the event, Student Alum-ni Ambassadors will introduce student organizations, athletic

programs and different aspects of campus life.

Kim Graber, associate pro-fessor of kinesiology and com-munity health, will speak at the event. Graber was picked for receiving a Campus Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching.

“It’s an honor that I am invit-ed to speak,” she said. “It’s an opportunity to talk to the fresh-men class regarding important things to know during college.”

Graber said the best advice she has for freshmen is to expe-

rience as much as possible at the University.

“Four years go by so quickly. These four years could be the most important four years of their life,” she said.

“Make good and thoughtful choices.”

On Hur, freshman in DGS, said he is looking forward to hopefully setting a world record and is impressed with the cam-pus atmosphere.

“The University is so big, and everyone looks so excited for the upcoming school year,” he said.

Summer goes out with a splash


Professor Chris Span, associate dean for Student Academic Affairs, is dunked in a tank Thursday at the College of Education Welcome Celebration on the college’s North Lawn. Balls to throw at a target for the dunk tank were $1 each, with children under 10 getting three balls for $1. All proceeds will be used for scholarships in the college.

“The experience here is kind of

isolated from the headquarters of

some companies. It’s a little more

relaxed, and that, to me, is more fun.”

Try something new this Quad Day

F or many of us at Illinois, Quad Day marked the offi -cial beginning of our time

on campus. Although most freshmen move in several days before Quad Day, those fi rst few days are fi lled with sweaty afternoons at the pool

and even sweatier nights out on the town. Quad Day marks the beginning of real life on campus. It’s the day thou-sands of overwhelmed newbies will sign up to receive emails from dozens of clubs — some that will change their lives and some that they will never join (and never stop receiving emails from).

Although everything stated above is true, Quad Day is so much more than the day that freshmen can “join stuff.” It

can mark a new beginning for people of every grade level, major or interest.

I was lucky enough to join a few things immediately after Quad Day in fall 2010, but I have made a conscious effort to spread my wings and join something new each year since then. In fact, this is my fi rst column for The Daily Illi-ni after joining this past sum-mer, and I couldn’t be more excited to start this new chap-ter in my time on campus.

When you consider wheth-er to attend Quad Day this year, think of the phrase “bet-ter late than never.” College is the one time in life that you can (for the most part) do whatever you want, whenev-er you want. It’s one of very few times in life that you are allowed to put your own needs and wants above anything else — including pursuing interests that may not make as much sense 10 years from now.

Think about it. Right now you could join The Falling Illini, a club that has the sole purpose of promoting sky-div-ing among students. You might think twice about skydiving in a few years if you are mar-ried with kids and need to,

you know, be alive to support them.

If you prefer to live life on the safe side, you have the option to join October Lovers, a club dedicated to celebrat-ing all that fall has to offer, including apple picking, pump-kin carving, hay rides and more. Now, you may think fall is something that can be cel-ebrated at any stage of life. This may be true, but you will never be able to celebrate it to the extent that this club will. Ten years from now, you might celebrate fall by order-ing a pumpkin muffi n at Star-bucks and call it a day.

The list of opportunities and organizations at your disposal on campus is endless, but the point is just that — they are

on campus. The minute you graduate and leave this fan-tasy world of friends and fun, the chances to do what you want, when you want start to dwindle. That may sound sad, but if you choose to join new clubs and expand your hori-zons while on campus, the friends you make and the fun you have will follow you wher-ever life takes you.

Whether this is your fi rst or fourth Quad Day, make it a good one. Sign up for what interests you regardless of what your friends might think. Years down the road, you will not regret trying something new, but you might regret not taking a chance.

Freshman or senior, it’s never too late to ! nd new friends, interests

Unique RSOs, thousands of students make Quad Day exciting, overwhelming

Ifthis year is your fi rst Quad Day, there are a couple of things you should know before

jumping in.First, this will probably be one of the

only times when you are surrounded by so many of your fellow students. When I say so many, I am not exaggerating. It feels like there are more people at Quad Day each year than at our Home-coming football game.

Quad Day can be a bit over-whelming. You have hundreds of booths with peppy student workers asking you to sign up for their reg-istered student organization. You have no idea which clubs are worth your time, and you only have so much time to walk around to booths

before you get exhausted. And of course, each year it is always hot. Really hot.

Quad Day does not have to be a nightmare if you approach it the right way. Yes, you might have a hard time moving through the crowds, but this day is a big oppor-tunity for new students or people who have not gotten involved on campus yet. It is the only time when so many RSOs are going to be in the center of campus offering you information.

The best way to have a successful Quad Day is to have a plan in mind before you get there. If you are most interested in an organization or two, fi gure out where they are and hit up those booths fi rst. That way, you don’t fi nd yourself leav-ing Quad Day realizing you forgot to visit the one booth you wanted to visit.

That goes hand-in-hand with my next tip. Quad Day is fun. There

will be people performing, peo-ple dancing and people running around being obnoxious. It can be easy to get distracted. Make sure you remember, especially if you’re a new student, that Quad Day is a time for you to check out which RSOs you want to join. Try not to lose sight of that.

Some people may say not to take every fl ier. I disagree. Take every fl ier and go through them when you get home. You can always decide later that an RSO isn’t for you, but you may forget a booth you visited if you don’t take one.

On the other hand, do not give your email address to every RSO. You will get so many emails and have to ask to be removed from so many ListServs. If you’re pretty interested in a RSO, give them your netID — otherwise hold off and stick to the fl ier.

Pick up clubs for things that are related to your major, but don’t for-

get to check out other clubs you may not have thought of originally. If you’re an accounting student, you don’t have to limit yourself to busi-ness-oriented organizations. Join a club with a cause you are passion-ate about. Or even just join a club that looks like fun.

The most important advice I can give you: Quad Day can be fun and exciting, but that excitement wears off fairly soon.

Follow up. Don’t forget about joining a club just because you get busier and start classes. Being a part of something on campus can open up doors you never even knew existed. There truly is something for everyone.

Enjoy meeting new people and seeing what the University has to offer. Don’t forget to wear shorts — it’s going to be a warm one.

Happy Quad Day!

POLITICAL CARTOON Free stuff, email lists: How to conquer Quad Day

One year ago, it wasn’t just any Quad Day — it was my very fi rst one. As an overzealous

freshman, I came prepared.It was the week before move-in

day and little freshman Melanie was doing her homework. I pulled up the offi cial website for regis-tered student organizations and started scrolling through over 800 club descriptions, a daunting task.

Determined to be the boss of Quad Day, I compiled an eclectic list of groups I wanted to check out: Capture the Flag Enthusiasts, Dance Dance Revolution Club, Fighting Illini Triathlon, Knitting Illini. Fish Lovers Union, Grillini .... The list went on and on.

This girl was ready, leading to a smooth and informative Quad Day experience. This brings me to my fi rst piece of advice for any QD virgins out there, followed by the rest of my brilliant tips:

1. Do some research. Unbe-knownst to most, there’s informa-tion online for every single club. If you pick out a few RSOs to check out, your day will be 12 times easier.

2. Eat a big breakfast. You’re going to need to do a little carbo-loading if you want endurance for the day. Between squirming your way to the front of a table and schlepping up and down the Quad, you’ll be burning more calories than my main man, Ryan Lochte.

3. Split up. Arrive with your new friends, fi ne, but don’t roam the lawn in a big pack of people. I learned this the hard way after waiting around at the Bellydance UIUC booth for upwards of 12 minutes. Sometimes, you’ve just got to put your interests ahead of your friends — the friends with fl at abs and hips that never lie.

4. Take everything. Quad Day is often compared to a complete-ly free shopping spree: pens, T-shirts, cozies, cups, whistles and more. Don’t think about whether you need that Board Game Club magnet. You do. You always do.

5. Give out your email sparing-ly. Contrary to No. 4, you should always think before scribbling your Illinois account address on a sign-up sheet. Unless, of course, you truly love receiving 30 emails in one day. Your choice.

6. Enjoy yourself. QD is like Christmas — you get stuff, and it only comes once a year. So soak it up. This is your fi rst step to get-ting involved on campus. I believe Ben Franklin sums it up best on his famous political cartoon circa 1754: “Join, or Die.” Putting your-self out there and meeting new people through clubs is one of the best ways to grow as a person dur-ing your college years. Satisfac-tion guaranteed. Free pencils also guaranteed.

Police: Stay vigilant to stop crimeBY STEVEN VAZQUEZSTAFF WRITER

While on-campus crime has not been as prev-alent as off-campus crime this summer, local police departments are still warning students not to let their guards down.

Lt. Bryant Seraphin of the Urbana Police Department said he has not seen any crime trends but said he would still advise new stu-dents to be careful about burglary.

“Whether it’s your car, apartment, dorm room, bicycle, even the windows — especially ground level — lock it up,” Seraphin said. “Sometimes the most simple things can prevent somebody from being victimized in the fi rst place.”

Seraphin said windows are something people tend to forget about. This is especially important for those on the fi rst fl oor of any building in order to prevent burglary, Seraphin said.

Capt. Skip Frost of the University Police also emphasized the importance of taking safety measures, such as paying attention to your sur-roundings while walking around on campus and remembering to travel in groups. Frost said stu-dents should always be fully aware of what is going on while walking, so students should avoid using headphones or texting while walking.

“We are looking for people who are paying attention and not being hesitant to call the police when they see something crime-related,” Frost said.

Frost said a prime example of the community helping the police was earlier this month, with a carjacking in a parking garage at the corner of Goodwin and University avenues. Several other employees saw the crime take place, and police were able to get a good description of the offend-er. Eventually, the vehicle was located and a sus-pect is in custody. Frost said this was possible because community members spoke up about what they saw and provided the police with valu-able information.

“We can’t be on every street corner, so we need the entire community to help keep campus safe,” Frost said.

Protesters create a fi ery roadblock during protests for education reform in downtown Santiago, Chile, on Thursday. Students are demanding quality public schools as they protest the high cost of private universities and the banks that make education loans at high interest rates that most Chileans can ill afford.

BY P. SOLOMON BANDATHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CENTENNIAL, Colo. — The former graduate student accused in a deadly mass shooting at a Colorado movie theater had been banned from his college after making threats and failing a key exam six weeks before the ram-page, prosecutors said Thursday.

The new claims against James Holmes emerged as part of efforts to convince a judge to allow the prosecution access to 100 pages of education records subpoenaed from the University of Colorado, Denver, where he had been a neuroscience doctor-al candidate.

The prosecutors’ account presents a sharply different pic-ture of Holmes’ exit from the one provided by university offi cials in the days after the shooting. And a school spokeswoman said after the hearing that Holmes had not been banned.

Holmes is accused of killing 12 people and wounding 58 oth-ers in the July 20 shooting dur-ing a midnight showing of the latest Batman movie. He has not issued a plea in the case and remains held without bail.

Chief Deputy District Attor-ney Karen Pearson did not elabo-rate on the nature of the threats during the hearing, nor did she disclose where the information came from.

The university turned over the documents last week, but Holm-es’ lawyers moved to keep them sealed.

Pearson also told Judge Wil-liam Sylvester that professors had urged Holmes to get into another profession and said his lab work had been deteriorating.

Defense lawyer Daniel King

objected to the release of the records, calling the prosecu-tion’s request a “fi shing expedi-tion that needs to be stopped.”

University spokeswoman Jacque Montgomery, who did not go to the court hearing, disputed the prosecution’s characteriza-tion, but said Holmes’ access to restricted areas was canceled because he left his graduate pro-gram in June.

Prosecutors are seeking Hol-mes’ university application, his grades, course schedules, emails concerning Holmes, and anything concerning his termi-nation or withdrawal from the school.

“What’s going in the defen-dant’s life at the time is extreme-ly relevant to this case,” Pear-son said.

Holmes appeared more engaged in the hearing than previous court appearances. His walk was more deliberate when he came in courtroom. Rather than staring blankly ahead, he looked at the judge for most of the hearing.

Before a gag order was issued, the university said that campus police had no records on Hol-mes and that the student lost access to the school because he withdrew from the program, not because of threats.

University offi cials also said Holmes lost access to univer-sity premises after his June 10 withdrawal because his student access card was shut off, rath-er than for threats or any other safety reason.

The university also said in writing that there were no doc-uments related to the decision to bar Holmes from the campus.

Prosecutors say they need the university documents to gain access to a notebook reported-ly containing violent descrip-tions of an attack. The notebook reportedly was in a package sent to university psychiatrist Lynne

Fenton.King during court hearings

said the notebook is protected by a doctor-patient relationship. King claims that Holmes is men-tally ill and sought Fenton for help with that illness.

Fenton is expected to testify at a hearing Aug. 30.

Former Denver Deputy Dis-trict Attorney and law profes-sor Karen Steinhauser said argu-ments over the records are part of both sides gearing up for a trial over Holmes’ sanity.

“They know it’s not a ques-tion of who did this,” Steinhaus-er said. “This is not a question of self-defense. They know that the only possible defense is that he was not sane at the time.”

School records don’t have the same legal protection as commu-nication between a doctor and patient. But Steinhauser said prosecutors would have to tell a judge why they want them.

Steinhauser said the school records, which could include emails, might help prosecutors establish that Holmes implicit-ly waived his right to privacy if he talked about some of the same things he spoke to his doc-tor about.

The university records could also contain his school applica-tion, recommendation letters, emails between professors about their impressions of Holmes, as well his grades and progress reports on his research. Educa-tional records released by the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, a school Holmes considered attending, contained such information including a letter of recommendation that describes Holmes as having “a great amount of intellectual and emotional maturity.”

“They want those records in the hopes that it could help them build their case that these are not the actions of an insane man,” Steinhauser said.

LONDON — This year’s Para-lympics are expected to draw their largest ever live televi-sion audience — except in the United States, where events will receive only minimal coverage and won’t be screened as they happen, prompting anger from some fans and campaigners.

While viewers in countries including Brazil, China, Britain and Australia will enjoy several hours of coverage per day, U.S. audiences must contend with 5 ! hours of programming — some of which will air only after the 11-day competition in Lon-don has concluded on Sept. 9.

That has left some equal-ity campaigners complain-ing that Paralympic athletes, who include military veterans, aren’t being treated as the equal of their able-bodied teammates.

Several online petitions are seeking to persuade major U.S. networks to screen Paralympic sports, amid an apparent surge in interest fueled by high pro-fi le athletes like South Africa’s Oscar Pistorius, a double ampu-tee known as the “Blade Run-ner” who also competed in the men’s 400 meters and 4x400 relay at the Olympics.

The International Paralympic Committee predicts that, adding together viewers on each of the 11 days of competition, the total audience fi gure for the London Paralympics will reach 4 billion.

It said that four years ago in Beijing, a total cumulated audience of around 3.8 billion in 80 countries watched the 2008 Paralympics — including

a total of 1.4 billion viewings in China across 11 days, 670 mil-lion in Japan and 439 million in Germany. Calculating fi gures in that way means individual view-ers are counted several times.

The London organizing com-mittee said deals announced so far with about 90 global broad-casters will provide 10 million pounds ($16 million) in revenue, a record for the Paralympics. However, the fi gure is dwarfed by the scale of broadcasting rights for the Olympics — NBC alone paid $4.38 billion last year to extend its rights to show the Summer and Winter Games through 2020.

Alongside a predicted

increase in interest from tele-vision audiences, demand for Paralympic tickets has also soared, with a record 2.2 mil-lion seats in London sold so far. About 8.8 million tickets were sold during the 17-day London Olympics.

“Our athletes are surprising, exciting and inspiring people and the interest is a refl ection of that,” said Alexis Schaefer, the commercial and marketing director for the International Paralympic Committee.

In Britain, Channel 4 will show 150 hours of program-ming, and about 350 hours more online and across three tempo-rary on-demand channels.

NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD

THE ASSOCIATED PRESSOWENSVILLE, Ind. — Health

officials say a farm in southwest-ern Indiana was the source of at least some of the salmonella-contaminated cantaloupe that has made at least 178 people in 21 states ill, but they are still trying to determine whether there are other sources.

Federal and state officials disagree whether it is safe to eat melons from the region. The Food and Drug Adminis-tration says consumers should discard any cantaloupes grown there bought on or after July 7 because they are still investi-gating other possible sources of the outbreak.

Amy Reel, Indiana Depart-ment of Health spokeswoman, says the state is recommend-ing cantaloupes from Chamber-lain Farms in Owensville be dis-carded, but melons from other farms are safe to eat as long as they are washed well and peo-ple use clean knives and cut-ting boards.

The Centers for Disease Con-trol and Prevention late Wednes-day identified Chamberlain Farms as a source of the out-break, which has led to 62 hos-pitalizations and two deaths.

Shelly Burgess, an FDA

spokeswoman, said Thursday that the investigation is still in its early stages and that it is too early to say whether all the con-taminated fruit could be traced back to the farm.

Tim Chamberlain, who runs the 100-acre Chamberlain Farms, said it stopped producing and dis-tributing cantaloupe on Aug. 16, when the FDA alerted him that the fruit could be tainted.

“We’ve had no production,” he said.

Chamberlain said he doesn’t know what might have caused the contamination. John Broadhead, an attorney for the farm, said it voluntarily withdrew its canta-loupes last week and that all of its retail and wholesale purchasers complied with the recall.

“We’re waiting for the gov-ernment agencies to tell us what to do,” he said.

The farm, which is about 20 miles north of Evansville, sold cantaloupes to grocery stores in four southwestern Indiana counties and one in southeast-ern Illinois, Broadhead said in a statement.

The fruit also was sold to wholesale purchasers in St. Lou-is; Owensboro, Ky.; Peru, Ill., and Durant, Iowa.

Burgess said it isn’t known how many cantaloupes the farm sold since people started getting sick. Investigators traced the salmonella back to Chamberlain Farms through two cantaloupes at an IGA grocery store in Ken-tucky, Reel said.

GENEVA — A new global fund on climate change that aims to channel $100 billion a year in aid to poor countries selected officials from South Afri-ca and Australia as its leaders at its first meeting Thursday.

The U.N.’s Green Climate Fund — created as part of a deal struck in December 2011 at the 194-nation climate talks in Durban, South Africa — will be led by Zaheer Fakir, head of international relations for South Africa’s environment agency, and Ewen McDonald, deputy head of Australia’s international development agency, the fund said in a statement.

In what is hoped will serve as a new model of climate financing, the fund would receive and dis-tribute $100 billion that rich nations have pledged annually by 2020 to help poorer countries adapt to changing climate conditions and to move toward low-carbon economic growth.

The commitment to provide those billions in cli-mate aid through the new “green” fund came as part of a hard-fought agreement in Durban that was meant to set a new course for the global fight

against climate change for the coming decades.But the U.N.-brokered climate agreement did not

specify how that money would be mobilized, and a series of technical decisions on how and where it should be run and even how it could raise those funds were put off for later.

Meeting in Geneva by invitation of the Swiss gov-ernment, the fund’s new 24-member board began by organizing itself, setting rules and hearing offers from six nations that would like to host the fund’s operations: Germany, Mexico, Namibia, Poland, South Korea and Switzerland.

Swiss Cabinet member Doris Leuthard, who directs the Federal Department of the Environ-ment, Transport, Energy and Communications, welcomed the board to Geneva for the fund’s inau-gural three-day meeting, which runs through Sat-urday. She also began pressing the Swiss case for serving as the fund’s long-range hosts.

The initial meeting in Geneva was set back for months by bureaucratic delays. Advocacy groups say the U.N.-administered fund can’t get going fast enough but want to ensure it remains transparent to outside observation and participation.

ISLAMABAD — Abdul Karim walked for nearly 12 hours to cross the border into Pakistan and escape the warlords who were raining rockets on his neighborhood in the Afghan capital Kabul. That was nearly two decades ago, when he was a young teenager. Since then, he’s gotten married and raised six children, all born in Pakistan.

He is one of 1.7 million Afghan refugees who have been living in limbo in Pakistan for years as part of one of the world’s larg-est and longest-running refugee crises.

But after 30 years of hosting Afghans, many Pakistanis are growing frustrated with the toll they say the refugee population is taking on their country, and pressure is mounting on the gov-ernment to do something. The Pakistani government is now weighing whether to remove their refugee status, a step that would increase the pressure on them to go home.

Most of the refugees can’t fathom returning to Afghanistan any time soon. They may feel like outsiders in Pakistan, but they say their homeland is still too violent and desperately poor.

“Unless the Pakistani govern-ment forced us back to Kabul, I am in no mood to go there,” Karim said. “There is no safety .... We have nothing left there.”

The Afghan population in Pak-istan is the legacy of Afghan-istan’s repeated conflicts. Mil-lions streamed across the border after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, the start of a decadelong war against the occupation. After the Sovi-ets pulled out, the country was torn apart by fighting between warlords, and more Afghans fled.

In an interview with The Asso-ciated Press, the secretary in charge of the States and Frontier Regions Ministry, which has pri-mary responsibility for refugee issues, said the Pakistani govern-ment would not renew the refu-gee status cards for registered Afghans when they expire Dec. 31.

Habibullah Khan said Paki-stan would not forcibly evict any-one but said once the cards are revoked it would encourage peo-ple to return. The ultimate deci-sion on whether to renew them will be made by the Cabinet.

The ID card, issued by the government, provides regis-tered Afghan refugees with certain protections. The cards are used for everyday activities such as banking or registering for school. Revoking them would potentially make Afghans much more susceptible to harassment by police. If the cards are not renewed, the Afghans would still be considered refugees by the U.N., Wright said. The agency could issue its own identity doc-umentation but it’s unclear how much weight those would carry in Pakistan.

“If they are serious about pushing us back to Afghanistan, then we will have to go,” Moham-med, who goes by one name like many Afghans, said. His only request to the Pakistan govern-ment? “Leave us here.”

Illinois defensive lineman in the NFL Draft since the NFL-AFL merger in 1966 SOURCE: ILLINOIS FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE


Illinois’ Michael Buchanan (99) tackles Ohio State’s Carlos Hyde (34) at Memorial Stadium on Oct. 15. Buchanan is considered one of the top DE’s in the nation.

Illini defense has high hopes for NFL DraftBY CHAD THORNBURGSTAFF WRITER

Illinois football has established a new spring tradition.

In each of the last four seasons, an Illini defensive lineman has been selected in the NFL Draft. And this year’s front four — ends Michael Buchanan and Justin Sta-ples and tackles Akeem Spence and Glenn Foster — will be play-ing to keep the tradition alive.

“We see the scouts coming out,” Spence said. “We’re just try-ing to work hard to be the next guy.”

Defensive end Whitney Mer-

cilus was “the next guy” in 2011. After a 16-sack breakout season, Mercilus received the Hendricks award, given to the top defensive end in the nation and was select-ed No. 26 overall by the Houston Texans in April’s draft .

“That’s what we want to be known for,” said Illini defensive line coach Keith Gilmore , who is the lone holdover from former head coach Ron Zook’s staff and the man behind two fi rst-round draft picks. “Our niche the last few years has been to get defense lineman and give them an oppor-tunity, and I think guys have

bought into it to continue the tradition.”

Before Mercilus came Corey Liuget, who was drafted by the San Diego Chargers with the 18th pick in 2011 . And before him were Josh Brent and Will Davis, late-round draft picks in 2010 and 2009, respectively. Brent was selected in the 2010 supplemen-tal draft.

Next up for Illinois are Buchan-an and Spence, who both appear to be the leading candidates to catch the eyes of NFL scouts. But Gilm-ore said all four of his starters have pro potential.

Buchanan logged 7.5 sacks and 13.5 tackles for a loss as a junior last season . He was named to multiple preseason watch lists — including the Bednarik Award and Nagurski Trophy , which is given to the nation’s top defensive player — but the 6-foot-6, 240-pound line-man is avoiding the hype.

“It’s a great honor to be on the watch lists, but that’s one of those things that you can’t really let go to your head,” Buchanan said. “Once you think that you’re bet-ter than you are, that’s when you stop working.”

The Illini defensive linemen

have spent the summer shrugging off questions about drafts, watch lists, rankings and their future.

“If I go out there and don’t pro-duce, it’s all for nothing,” Buchan-an said.

Former Illini and current Chi-cago Bears defensive end Derek Walker said it’s exciting to see his alma mater developing a reputa-tion for producing elite defensive linemen.

“It’s kind of crazy how it’s going,” he said. “Every year there’s a new D-lineman coming up and there’s one right behind him. ... It’s just rolling now. I love it.”

Walker didn’t get drafted after his senior season in 2008, but the former honorable men-tion All-Big Ten selection had brief stint in the NFL in 2009 and after two years away, he is hoping to make the 53-man ros-ter this season.

“We have a lot of talent down there (in Champaign),” he said. “I’m just trying to keep it going.”

Gilmore said the defensive line tradition at Illinois is a great tool when recruiting players who have their eyes set on a NFL career.

“The proof is in the pudding,” he said.

Coach Butkus rearranges offensive line after fi nishing 10th in conference in 2011BY SEAN HAMMONDSTAFF WRITER

There is no question that the Illinois offensive line is a tight group. The offensive linemen take pride in being more than teammates. They are room-mates and they are friends. They live together, eat togeth-er and take classes together. They take pride in saying that every offensive lineman lives with at least one other offensive lineman.

But as the opening game of 2012 campaign looms, the ques-tions surrounding these Illini remain diffi cult to decipher. No group has been more of an enig-ma than the offensive line, which has yet to decide on a starting fi ve. After losing seniors Jack Cornell and Jeff Allen, who logged 47 consecutive starts to end his collegiate career, from last year’s squad, the Illini are left fi lling the holes of a unit that has not been stellar.

It’s easy to fi nd fault with a team that lost six straight games, and it’s easy to pick on an offense that struggled as much as Illinois’ did in 2011. But the numbers tell the tale. The Illini surrendered 36 sacks last year, ranking 102nd in college foot-ball and 10th in the Big Ten, which only ranked above North-western and Ohio State. They also allowed 89 tackles for loss, good for 101st in the FBS and 10th in the Big Ten, above Ohio

State and Indiana . But Illinois allowed more sacks in the six wins (22) than in the six losses (14) last year.

“Last year, the last six games, you could see that we were as

Illinois volleyball prepares to make season debut in 2-day Dayton tournamentBY ELIOT SILLSTAFF WRITER

The Illinois volleyball team is wasting no time getting back to business.

A three-match, two-day tour-nament in Dayton, Ohio, will be where the Illini season embarks from.

Familiarity will be a promi-nent storyline on the weekend. After weeks of practice and fi nally a scrimmage against an alumnae squad, the Illini will meet familiar foe Dayton on Friday night — the two teams have played each other in sev-en consecutive seasons. Though a headline-worthy match with No. 11 Pepperdine looms Satur-day morning, head coach Kevin Hambly’s team is excited and focused on game one.

“Dayton took us to fi ve (sets) last year and probably should have beat us at our place,” Ham-bly said. “So our focus is just on Dayton. I’m not even sure if our girls know who we’re playing after that and when.”

Dayton is unranked but was the third team out of the top 25 in the preseason coaches’ poll.

Volleyball focus aside, it’d be hard for the Illini to overlook a reunion with a former team-mate. When Illinois squares off against Pepperdine, hitter Jazmine Orozco will be playing for the opposition.

Orozco missed most of last season’s title run with post-concussion symptoms, sought

transfer and wound up in Mali-bu, Calif., with the Waves. Ham-bly declined comment on the nature of Orozco’s transfer, but she is still on good terms with the team.

“She was our teammate, she was a friend of ours, we still keep in touch,” middle blocker Erin Johnson said. “So I think we’re just excited to see her, actually.”

The reunion will do little to soften the Illini’s intensity.

“I think we’re all excited to see each other,” setter Annie Luhrsen said. “But when we get out on the court, it’s gonna be U of I versus Pepperdine. It’s not against any individual, so no one takes anything personally, but at the same time we wanna win.”

Later Saturday, the Illini face Ohio, a team Illinois will be playing for just the second time ever.

The weekend tournament will be the fi rst real competi-tion for some prominent Illinois players. Jocelynn Birks and Ali Stark will play their fi rst col-legiate match. Both freshmen redshirted last season, which Luhrsen thinks will prove help-ful in their acclimation to the college game.

“I’ve gotten to know them as hitters pretty well throughout the past year, and preseason has really just been a focus on fi nd-ing what type of speed and what type of tempo set works for each individual,” Luhrsen said.

With the task of implementing new talent before them, the Illi-ni are not wavering in their atti-tude or aggressiveness, Johnson said. But Illinois is not going to ignore a necessary feeling-out process.

“We obviously know that we’re not going to be playing

our peak volleyball at this time. We don’t want to be. You want to be doing that at the end of the season,” Johnson said. “We’re going into it knowing that we’re kinda trying to fi nd out who we are as a team and fi nd our iden-tity as a team and still work-ing with each other to get (into)

the groove of playing with new teammates.”

Though a match with Pep-perdine stands out in Illinois’ fi rst weekend, Hambly said he doesn’t care who the team plays, or even what the results are, but only how his team performs.

“You don’t really know any-

thing about yourself till you’re fi ghting, till you’re playing,” Hambly said. “I’m hoping to fi g-ure out what we are more and try to fi gure out what we need to work on and try to see what we have. I don’t know, it’s the fi rst match, we’re trying to fi gure out all kinds of things.”

Six former Illini compete, 2 medal at London gamesBY KYLE MILNAMOWSTAFF WRITER

Six former Illini competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Deron Williams, who was a key member of the 2005 Illinois bas-ketball team, which lost to North Carolina in the NCAA champi-onship game, won a gold medal for the U.S.

This is the United States’ sec-ond straight gold medal, with Wil-liams also being part of the 2008 team. He averaged nine points per game as the U.S. won all eight of its games.

Former Illini soccer play-er Emily Zurrer didn’t play but received a bronze medal as Can-ada defeated France in the third-place match.

But not all Illini were as suc-cessful in London.

Recent graduate Andrew Riley raced for Jamaica in the 110-meter hurdles, an event he had recently won at the NCAA Championship this spring. He fi n-ished fi fth in his heat and failed to qualify for the next round.

Gia Lewis-Smallwood, who attended Illinois from 1998 to 2001, competed in the women’s

discus throw for the United States. She fi nished eighth in a group with a throw of 61.44 meters. She failed to advance to the next round.

Meanwhile, Canadian athlete Nikkita Holder had a little suc-cess in the 100 hurdles, advanc-ing to the semifi nals with a time of 12.93 seconds. However, she ran the same time in the semifi -nals as she did the prelims, which was not enough to advance her to the fi nals.

Former Illinois basketball player Robert Archibald played in fi ve games for the Great Brit-ain squad.

However, he only averaged 2.6 points per game and failed to come away with a medal.

In the pool, Champaign native and Auburn graduate Tyler McGill was part of the gold med-al-winning 400 medley relay squad. Even though he did not compete in the fi nals, he earned the medal because he swam in the prelims.

In addition, McGill in the 100 fl y — his premiere event — fi nished seventh in the fi nal with a time of 51.88 seconds. Michael Phelps won the race.


Illinois’ Andrew Riley wins the 60m dash at the Illini Classic in the Armory on Jan. 21. Riley competed in the 110-m hurdles for Jamaica in the Olympics.

talented a group as there is in the Big Ten when we can mesh together correctly,” senior line-man Graham Pocic said. “It’s more about being in sync as an offensive line than it is about talent.”

Pocic, who rooms with fellow offensive linemen Hugh Thorn-ton, Tony Durkin and Ted Kar-ras , has started every game the last two seasons at center. Under new head coach Tim Beckman and new offensive line coach Luke Butkus — the nephew of the former Illini and Chicago Bears great Dick But-kus — the line has continually been tinkered with, and Pocic now appears to be moving to left guard. Returning starter Thorn-ton has been moved from guard to tackle. Beckman and Butkus have made it clear that they are looking for the best linemen, no matter what position they have experience in.

“Everyone’s doing what they need to do, everyone’s happy to do it,” redshirt freshman Kar-ras said. “It’s just getting adjust-ed and maybe putting your left hand down instead of your right hand.”

Beckman and Butkus will have their work cut out for them fi guring out how to protect quar-terback Nathan Scheelhaase and create holes for a young running back core, namely Josh Fergu-son and Donovonn Young . Beck-man’s new dual-threat offense will feature sets unlike what the Illini ran under former head coach Ron Zook. Beckman said it is likely there will be two run-ning backs, or even two quarter-backs, on the fi eld at the same time.

“The challenge will be on the offensive line to provide for Young and Ferguson and hope-fully some of the young fresh-men to step in and play,” Beck-man said. “It’s a commitment that our offensive staff has made to running the football and we’ve got to establish the run fi rst for us to be successful.”

The coaching staff will likely continue toying with the offen-sive line until Illinois meets Western Michigan on Sept. 1 . The players themselves have enjoyed trying out different positions and working with dif-ferent combinations on the line. Although Pocic may be consid-ered the leader of the group, he does not feel that this distinc-tion gives his teammates enough credit.

“I have some of the most expe-rience, but I feel like we lead each other,” he said “We set examples by the way we work. We don’t have to do much talk-ing. We just go out there and work hard.

“We feed off of each other and we’re constantly teaching each other. It’s not really me teach-ing everybody. It’s Hugh giving me pointers. It’s Toni reminding me about something. It’s a good group because everyone meshes well with each other.”

The linemen will have no choice but to mesh well because come next Saturday any one of them could fi nd themselves on the fi eld. And until they are on the fi eld, and the season is under way, the questions will remain unanswered.

Beckman has done well preparing football team, energizing fanbase for new season

“D awn of a New Era” is the campaign for this year’s football season,

and there isn’t a slogan that can more accurately portray the new regime leading the Illini in 2012.

When Tim Beckman was hired Dec. 9 , he had a long list of things to do to not only get the Illini in a position to consistently compete, but, more importantly, win over the fan base.

Despite his predecessor, Ron Zook, not leaving him with much to work with, Beckman is placing the program squarely on his shoulders and is making things happen.

With a little over a week until the seasons starts , he has done everything he can to generate interest around a team that has two bowl victories the last two seasons — making Illinois the only team in the Big Ten that can say that .

With a new head coach and the general lack of interest around the team, even with the back-to-back bowl wins, it’s obvious why the change was made.

His fi rst victory was getting Terry Hawthorne and Michael Buchanan to hold off on testing their ability at the NFL level for one more year. Once they were on board, he had something to work off of.

The weather for the Spring Game was bad and the game was just the usual run-through to feed fans’ football craving in the spring, but Beckman didn’t treat it that way.

He let a few fans call some offensive plays, he revealed that Miles Osei and Terry Hawthorne were going to have big offensive roles and he provided entertaining sound bites about the beans and weenies and the steaks that were going to be handed out based on the outcome.

Then news came of four-star quarterback Aaron Bailey verbally committing to play at Illinois , which started a wave of commitments that have the Illini class currently ranked No. 22, according to Rivals.

The Big Ten Media Days arrived and he did what turned out to be a major promotion for his program: Visit Happy Valley with eight coaches and recruit Penn State players.

It may have looked bad initially, but Illinois was the second-most talked about team after Penn State at the media days, getting the program national attention for a few days.

What came out of that? Ryan Nowicki transferred to Illinois, proving that Beckman and his staff’s efforts were worth it.

Ryan Klachko, a former Nebraska player, followed suit, giving the Illini two offensive linemen to lean on for the future .

The two transfers more than likely acted on their own terms, but they fi ll a void and further prove that Beckman isn’t messing around.

Not to mention Beckman has given playful commentary about the in-state rivalry with Northwestern, calling it “the team up north,” and was spotted taking an ice bath with his players after a Camp

Rantoul practice. His chatter about eventually

having new uniforms, trying to set a Guinness World Record and getting the players involved with the fans before games shows that he has big plans for Illinois football while he is the head coach.

The season starts Sept. 1 against Western Michigan, a team the Illini struggled to beat at home last season . It is the fi rst of a seven-game home schedule that gives Beckman a good chance at success during his fi rst season, especially facing Penn State, Indiana, Minnesota and Purdue at home .

The road games are going to be tough, particularly playing at Camp Randall, the Big House and the Horseshoe , but given that the team has only gone 7-6 in each of the last two seasons, fans shouldn’t expect to see the Illini win there.

Between the seven home games and the two road games at Arizona State and Northwestern , Beckman has put himself in a position to give fans at least another 6-6 season and maybe even

stretch it to 7-5 or 8-4. Throw in what is expected to be another stellar defensive unit led by speedy defensive end Buchanan and an offense featuring more creativity than in years past, and the blueprint for an exciting season is there.

Whatever happens this season, the initial strong push in recruiting by a young coaching staff that also has the experience of developing recruits into NFL players, gives Beckman a leg up on reconstructing a roster that has holes all over the place from years of imbalanced recruiting.

Add in the rest of his plan and it makes the atmosphere around Illinois football seem that of perennial program.

Illinois fans should expect the same proactive mentality that kept up the buzz around the team during the offseason to translate into a new level of excitement, which will carry into the 2012 season.

BY ETHAN ASOFKSKY STAFF WRITER

From the start, John Groce has felt the pressure.

Just weeks after accepting the job as Illinois’ men’s head basketball coach, Groce had to make every effort he could to land Class of 2013 No. 1 recruit Jabari Parker, this year’s prize of Chicago’s fertile hoops crop.

But on July 12, Groce’s uphill conquest finally ended: Illinois did not make Parker’s top-10 list. While the news was disappointing, it wasn’t all that surprising to Groce, who not only faced the challenge of competing with coaches who’d talked to Parker for years, but also had to quickly replace the long-standing friendship former Illini head coach Bruce Weber had with the (Chicago) Simeon Career Academy star.

“Obviously, you’re battling,” Groce said. “You’ve been at it for four months, and some of the kids have been recruited by some other places for longer. That’ll really last on two classes, but even then we feel that we’re

good enough at what we do and we have a good enough thing going at Illinois that we can find ’13s and ’14s that fit what we’re looking for.”

Recruiting has been an area of strength on Groce’s resume for years. The former Ohio coach recruited highly touted Chicago native D.J. Cooper to his MAC program, and, as a member of Thad Matta’s Ohio State staff, he was the lead recruiter of Greg Oden and Mike Conley Jr. Groce said the experience he had with Oden and Conley at Ohio State — two top recruits who left school for the NBA after one season — gave him a unique perspective on recruiting top high school talent.

“Just because a guy leaves, I think sometimes that gets a negative connotation — the one and done,” Groce said. “I’ve got an unbelievable relationship with Mike Conley Jr., who is a terrific student, great kid, great ambassador for his university. He was one-and-done, and Mike eventually will come back and already has started back up on

his degree and takes classes. That’s not a negative connotation to me. It’s not.”

While Groce and his staff are still working on top Chicago prospects like Simeon’s Kendrick Nunn and Whitney Young Magnet High School’s Jahlil Okafor, he has more pressing spots to fill on this season’s roster with the departures of starting point guard Sam Maniscalco to graduation and 7-foot center Meyers Leonard to the NBA.

Groce turned his attention to finding transfer students with eligibility for this season to fill the holes, ending his search with former Drake guard and Champaign native Rayvonte Rice and Coastal Carolina fifth-year forward Sam McLaurin in the fold.

“Sam was a great get for us,” Groce said. “Obviously, we lost Meyers. We’re going to need some frontcourt depth. He’ll be able to provide that.

“Rayvonte obviously has a chance to be a special player. The biggest thing for him right now

is getting himself in high-level shape. He was our leading scorer throughout the scrimmages during the summer that we had in the team practices. He can make plays. Right now to reach his potential, he knows that his conditioning has to get better, and I’m confident that it will.”

The new Illini staff plans to be proactive in recruiting top talent to the program, which is in line with its calling-card philosophy of attacking. Even though Parker has moved on from considering Illinois as a possibility, Groce feels the Illini will attract plenty of talented Chicago-area players to Champaign.

“I think the biggest thing is, first of all, the core values,” Groce said. “Those three things are important to us. They’re not just lip service. We want to conduct our problem in a way with people inside our organization have integrity, extraordinary commitment and that are unified as one, all moving in the same direction toward the same vision and goal.”

Groce uses experience, transfers to make up for lost time

BY GINA MUELLERSTAFF WRITER

The Illinois soccer team grad-uated five standout players last season whom the Illini will miss at the beginning of this season.

They will also miss their head coach.

Illini head coach Janet Ray-field joined her All-American junior Vanessa DiBernardo when she was appointed assis-tant coach of the United States women’s under-20 World Cup team. DiBernardo played with the national team in March during CONCACAF qualifying in Panama, where she record-ed two goals and five assists in five games. Following the quali-fications, DiBernardo traveled to Japan for a pair of friendly matches in July before partic-ipating in a two-week training camp in Florida with the national team. DiBernardo was one of six midfielders and 21 total players named to the squad Aug. 2.

Rayfield will follow DiBer-nardo to Japan, once again join-ing head coach Steve Swanson’s coaching staff. The 2011 Big Ten Coach of the Year will bring her attacking mentality to the team, working with midfielders and forwards during the squad’s training.

Team USA defeated Ghana 4-0 in its first match on Aug. 20. DiBernardo started and played all 90 minutes of the game. Her corner kick in the 20th minute set

the Americans up for their first tally on the board. Penn State’s Maya Hayes clinched the victo-ry for the U.S. by scoring three goals in the second half. In its second match, the United States managed a 1-1 tie against China on Thursday. Hayes tallied the only goal during the match. The U.S. will finish group play Mon-day against Germany.

Meanwhile, the Illini were successful during their exhibi-tion games without Rayfield and DiBernardo — who could be gone as long as Sept. 8, missing as many as five games — have con-tinued as a strong force without their lead scorer from the 2011 season. In the 2012 Big Ten wom-en’s soccer preseason coaches’ poll, Illinois was ranked second, and the Illini were ranked No. 19 in the country in the NSCAA preseason poll. Stanford, the 2011 national champions, claimed the top spot, followed by Duke, last season’s runner-up, and Wake Forest.

In their first exhibition game, the Illini settled for a 1-1 tie against Cincinnati. Junior Megan Pawloski tallied the only goal during the match, scoring in the 26th minute off a rebound from senior Marissa Holden’s shot. In its second and final exhibition game, Illinois came away with a 2-1 victory against Kentucky. Kristen Gierman and Pawloski tallied the two goals for the Illini, while goalkeeper Steph Panozzo

protected the lead with 15 saves. The official season began last

Friday when Illinois earned a victory against Western Michi-gan 1-0. Junior Kassidy Brown’s penalty kick was the only goal the Illini managed to score, though they did setup multiple other opportunities throughout the match.

They continued the opening weekend against Illinois State on Sunday. Though the Redbirds were the first ones on the board,

the Illini quickly retaliated with a goal of their own five minutes later. Freshman Nicole Breece tallied the lone goal for the Illini as well as her first collegiate goal. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, as Illinois recorded 26 shots, 11 on goal. The overall series between the two schools is now 6-2-2 in favor of the Illini. Illinois will continue the road series Friday against UC Santa Barbara and then travel to Los Angeles on Sun-day to battle No. 5 UCLA.

ST. LOUIS — The Houston Astros scored a few runs for interim manager Tony DeFran-cesco and chased St. Louis starter Jake Westbrook after five innings.

Too bad their starter, rook-ie lefty Dallas Keuchel, didn’t record an out in the fourth.

David Freese’s three-run homer snapped the Cardinals’ seven-game longball drought and St. Louis punished Keuchel and four relievers for 17 hits in a 13-5 victory to complete a three-game sweep.

“Mistakes are going to be made by young pitchers and young players,” DeFrancesco said. “We know what we’ve got in the clubhouse and all we can do is stay positive as a coach-ing staff.”

DeFrancesco is trying his best to keep things upbeat. He had the obligatory tip of the hat comment after each loss to the Cardinals, hastening to mention they’re the World Series cham-pions and that his youngsters are trying.

“They compete and they kept grinding out at-bats,” DeFran-cesco said. “The good side for us, we scored five runs.”

Freese and Matt Holliday each had four RBIs, and Allen Craig had three hits and three RBIs.

The Cardinals shrugged aside a 4-0, fourth-inning deficit and sent Houston to its seventh straight loss.

The Astros are 0-4 while getting outscored 32-8 since DeFrancesco replaced Brad Mills as leader of the stripped-down roster. Houston has won just seven of its last 50 overall.

Ben Francisco had three hits for the Astros, who were swept

for the third time this month and 12th overall.

“It good to score some runs, but we still lost,” Francisco said. “So everybody’s not hap-py. We’ve got to come out there tomorrow and do it again.”

Holliday’s three-run double in the fifth inning was the go-ahead blow.

Westbrook (13-9) won for the fourth time in five starts despite struggles with control two days after getting a new contract for next season with a mutual option for 2014.

Westbrook surrendered five runs on seven hits, two walks and two hit batters in five innings, ending a string of 13 consecutive starts of at least six innings.

Keuchel (1-6) retired 11 of the first 12 batters, but six of his last seven reached base, one on an error. He earned his first career RBI on a sacrifice fly in the second but was charged with five earned runs in four-plus innings.

“They have a great lineup, for sure, but I’m confident in what I can do,” Keuchel said. “I was just trying to go with the flow and obviously I couldn’t get it stopped in the fifth.

“Hopefully I get another shot at these guys.”

The Cardinals totaled 17 hits and were 10 for 14 with runners in scoring position against five pitchers, one off their season best, to sweep the Astros for the first time since April 2009 and wrap up a 6-3 homestand with a string of contenders awaiting.

St. Louis starts a 10-game trip Friday night with three games at NL Central-leading Cincin-nati, followed by three at wild card-contending Pittsburgh and four at NL East-leading Washington.

Cardinals beat Astros, former manager 13-5

Panama edges Mexico 2-1 to move on in Little League World SeriesBY GENARO C. ARMASTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Edisson Gonzalez pitched a gem to get Panama one step closer to a Little League title.

The 12-year-old Gonzalez had 11 strikeouts and James Gonzalez provided the offense with a two-run homer in the first to lift the team from Aguadulce past Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, 2-1 on Thursday.

Panama will face Japan in a rematch in the international title game Saturday. Tokyo beat Pana-ma 4-1 on Wednesday night.

Mexico starter Ramon Ballina struck out 12 but allowed James Gonzalez’s big blast.

Panama manager Luis Gon-zalez is a proud uncle after his 12-year-old nephew hit the homer.

“It was a difficult game, but our pitcher did his job,” Luis Gon-zalez said through a translator. “One pitch decided the game.”

Mexico scored in the fifth on Marcelo Perez’s RBI single and

had the tying run at second with two outs in the sixth.

But Edisson Gonzalez got a strikeout to end the game.

“I was not nervous in the begin-ning of the game,” he said, “but in the last inning when the first bat-ter got on, I got nervous. (James’) home run helped because I’m not having a good tournament at the plate, and we needed it to win the game.”

After the teams exchanged handshakes at the plate, Edisson Gonzalez made it a point to join several teammates to exchange high-fives one more time with Mexico’s disappointed players. He tapped counterpart Ballina, 13, on the shoulder, as the Mexico starter walked back to his dug-out to offer kind words and an embrace.

Texas and California played later Thursday for a spot against Tennessee in the U.S. final.

Either team can only hope to get a pitching performance like

the one Edisson Gonzalez had against Mexico.

Looking as cool and confi-dent as a big-league ace, Gon-zalez consistently worked ahead of the count and didn’t allow a runner to get past first until Edu-ardo Abrego doubled to left in the fifth.

“Yes we can! Yes we can!” Mexico’s vocal fans yelled in Spanish in trying to urge a comeback.

Perez followed with his solid RBI single to center, but Gonza-lez got two strikeouts to end that inning.

Juan Rodriguez had a leadoff single in the sixth and moved to second with two outs on a passed ball. Gonzalez answered again with his final strikeout to com-plete his five-hitter.

Renowned earlier in the tour-nament for their power, Mexico hitters struggled at the plate until the final innings. The loss elimi-nated Mexico.

Avila’s RBI single, Jackson’s catch lift Tigers over Blue Jays in extra inningsBY NOAH TRISTERTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT — Alex Avila’s RBI single with two outs in the 11th gave the Detroit Tigers a 3-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday, one inning after center fielder Austin Jack-son kept the game tied with a spectacular catch.

The Blue Jays had a runner on second in the 10th when Antho-ny Gose lifted what looked like a sure hit to the gap in right-center. But Jackson raced over and made a diving catch.

With runners on first and sec-ond in the 11th, Avila singled

to right off Chad Jenkins (0-1). Gose played the ball on a hop and couldn’t throw out pinch-runner Quintin Berry at home.

Joaquin Benoit (3-3) got the win. Justin Verlander struck out 12 in nine innings for the Tigers.

Detroit slugger Miguel Cabre-ra left in the second inning because of right ankle soreness and is day to day.

The Tigers pulled within 1 ! games of the first-place Chica-go White Sox in the AL Central.

J.A. Happ took a shutout into the eighth inning for Toron-to, but the bullpen couldn’t

hold the 2-0 lead. Happ left the game after walking Avila with one out, and Jackson singled off reliever Brandon Lyon. After Omar Infante flied out, Darren Oliver came on to face pinch-hitter Brennan Boesch and allowed an RBI single.

With Prince Fielder batting, Oliver threw a wild pitch that allowed Jackson to score from third and tie the game at 2.

Edwin Encarnacion hit a two-run homer off Verlander in the fourth.

Happ allowed a run and four hits in 7 1-3 innings. He walked three and struck out seven.

Verlander allowed four hits and two walks in his first start against the Blue Jays since he threw a no-hitter at Toronto last year.

Verlander struck out Rajai Davis on three pitches to start the game and caught Adeiny Hecha-varria looking with a sweeping breaking ball in the third.

Verlander struck out the last two hitters in the sixth and then struck out the side in the seventh. His final strikeout was against Kelly Johnson in the ninth, giv-ing Verlander 1,407 and moving him ahead of Jim Bunning for fifth place on Detroit’s career list.

ABBY DREY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

On July 12 Penn State President Graham Spanier arrives at the University Park Airport in State College, Pa. Spanier and his lawyers attacked the university-backed report on the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal on Wednesday, calling it a “blundering and indefensible indictment.”

Penn State president claims ignorance about Sandusky sex abuse allegationsBY MARK SCOLFOROTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HARRISBURG, Pa. — The story being told by Penn State president Graham Spanier, as he defends himself against accusa-tions that he covered up a sex abuse allegation, runs contrary into his own reputation as a detail-oriented manager.

But experts in university gov-ernance also suggest that if Spanier truly didn’t know what was going on, he showed a will-ful ignorance and a disturbing lack of curiosity about a scandal that stood to ruin Penn State’s reputation.

In a series of interviews this week and at a Philadelphia news conference, Spanier and his law-yers have repeatedly portrayed him as somewhat on the sidelines, completely unaware that com-plaints about former assistant foot-ball coach Jerry Sandusky were serious enough to warrant much more than passing attention.

The governance experts acknowledge the job of president requires dealing with a continual stream of problems, but they are raising doubts that Spanier took a less than active role in investigat-ing the scandal that engulfed two of his top lieutenants and longtime football coach Joe Paterno.

“You can say I didn’t know. You can say I was distracted. You can say they didn’t tell me — up to a point,” said Stephen Trachtenberg, who spent decades as president at the University of Hartford and George Washington University.

“But from what we have heard about what transpired, his vice president, his director of athletics, his coaches allegedly were con-cealing this bad news from him for such an extensive period of time that I fi nd the story implausible,” he said.

Spanier said he had no recollec-tion of email traffi c involving a 1998 police investigation of San-dusky, triggered by a woman’s

complaints that he had showered with her son. He also told The New Yorker he had little memory of a 2001 complaint about Sandusky in a team shower with a boy, and that a follow-up meeting on the topic was wedged into his schedule dur-ing a busy time.

Sandusky was convicted of vari-ous criminal counts in June for both of those encounters, as well as child sexual abuse of eight other boys. He awaits sentencing.

Spanier has not been charged with any crimes, but athletic direc-tor Tim Curley and vice president Gary Schultz, who reported to him on the matters, are expected to go to trial in January on charges they lied to a grand jury about the San-dusky scandal and did not prop-erly report the 2001 accusation to authorities.

Spanier, who hasn’t responded to requests for an Associated Press interview, told ABC that the 2001 case was only characterized as “horseplay.”

Half-ton fi sh wins attention, misses out on world recordBY OSKAR GARCIATHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HONOLULU — A Hawaii tournament angler fought a 12-foot, half-ton marlin in the Pacifi c Ocean for more than four hours before she and her teammates got the mon-ster fi sh out of the water — but she missed out on the glory and thousands of dollars in prize money.

Molly Palmer, 28, would have needed to reel in the fi sh by herself in order for it to qualify as a valid catch for the tournament, according to rules set by the International Game Fishing Association.

But her team helped her pull the massive marlin aboard — so all the Kailua-Kona angler got was a fi sh story.

Palmer told The Associated Press that her team wasn’t overly concerned about getting disqualifi ed hauling the fi sh on deck because they just wanted to land the big catch.

“I didn’t come here to set world records,” Palmer said. “I didn’t even really come here to win money. I came here to catch fi sh and that’s just what we were there to do.”

Palmer’s fi sh weighed in at 1,022.5 pounds, well over the record of 950 pounds for a woman using a 130-pound line, tour-nament organizer Jody Bright said.

Cheating would have been easy and tempt-ing. The Big Island Invitational Marlin Tour-nament runs in part on an honor system and

Palmer, her captain and crewmates put up roughly $9,000 to enter last week.

“I’ve had people try to slide things past me for a whole lot less money, for a less important thing than a world record,” Bright said.

“We don’t have offi cials on the fi eld like you do in base-ball or football or any-thing like that,” he said. “Everybody’s playing on the open ocean playing fi eld, and since there’s nobody there checking to see if you stepped out of bounds or any of that sort of stuff, there’s a whole lot of opportunity to do things nobody would know of.”

Palmer said breaking the rules never crossed her mind.

“The question was only can I land the fi sh or not,” she said.

Offi cials at the International Game Fish-ing Association were not immediately avail-able late Wednesday.

Bright said most of the fi sh caught during the three-day tournament were released, while those that died would be sold at mar-ket for seafood and marlin jerky.

Neal Isaacs, the boat’s captain, said the team knew the fi sh was big — but not nec-essarily that big — when they saw it start jumping to free itself from the line nearly 40 minutes after it was hooked.

The battle then became about whether the boat could position itself to give Palmer

enough leverage to reel it in, he said.

She didn’t want to give up, but the fi sh stayed in deep waters and eventu-ally died on the line, drift-ing directly below the ship, Isaacs said.

“We pushed it, but her husband suggested we get out of the chair before she passed out,” Isaacs said.

Angling is as much about math and physics as the open-water adven-ture. Palmer, at 5-foot-9 and 160 pounds, needed to get the marlin more than six times her size

positioned higher in the water to make it easier for her to reel in her line without attracting sharks or breaking the line or any of the boat’s equipment.

But she wasn’t looking for any excuses.“It was a bad decision that stopped me

more than my physical limits,” she said.

Molly Palmer poses with her crew Saturday near a 12-foot marlin that took more than four hours to get on her team’s boat in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. The half-ton catch would have been a world record if Palmer caught it by herself.

“I didn’t come here to set world records. I

didn’t even really come here to win money. I

came here to catch fi sh and that’s just what

we were there to do.”MOLLY PALMER,

tournament angler
