Program fills waiting room Nursing impacted

since spring By Angela Forte Daily Staff Writer

Aspiring nursing students have very little room to slack off said Rosemary Mann. un-dergraduate coordinator for the school of nursing at San Jose State University.

Mann said that it is not easy for students to get into the nursing program.

"Intense studying and good grades is what’s going to get you into the school of nurs-ing," Mann said. "Students don’t have too much leeway to have a bad semester of grades and have to get at least A’s and B’s."

Since this semester, the nursing program for under-graduate and graduate stu-dents has been impacted. said Jayne Cohen. director of the school of nursing.

Cohen said the impaction is because there is an over-abundance of applicants and a shortage of nursing educa-tors.

According to the school of nursing Web site, all under-graduate students declared as nursing majors must have a minimum 23 GPA in their 30 most recent units and a minimum 2.75 GPA in the program’s five prereq-uisite courses -- General

Food services stay sanitary

By Christine Glarrow Stott Writer

The hygiene of dining services on campus is "pretty good," said (’hems Joyce, a registered environmental health specialist tor Santa Clara County’s Department of Health.

James Whinery, assistant director of retail operations for Spartan Shops. said that food hygiene standards dif-fer depending on the restaurant, but the "highest author-ity," followed by all, is the state’s standard.

According to the National Restaurant Association Education Foundation, "Each food facility shall hase an owner or employee who has successfully passed an ap-proved and accredited food safety certification exami-nation." under California law. The certification must he renewed every three years.

’Therefore, each of the eight dining services nun by Spartan Shops, called units. has an employee certified "ServSafe." All managers are certified. Whinery said.

ServSale is a program that is dedicated to providing resources to help keep served food safe. The ServSafe certification program includes training, books and an exam.

In addition, Spartan Shops food hygiene is inspected by the Santa ( County..

As the inspector for San Jose State University’s Spartan Shops. Joyce said that "in any routine inspection we are required to do two perhirinance based inspections."

These inspections entail checking the restaurants’ handwashing. water temperatures and holding tempera

Students stage

walkout, protest

fee hikes By Vaishali Kirpekar

Daily Staff Writer

More than 600 students of San Jose State Unisersity will take part in a statewide walkout between 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. and head to the Alquist State building, locat-ed at the intersection of Second and San Carlos streets on Wednesday to protest proposed fee increases and cuts to public colleges and univer-sities in California. said Huy Iran. co-chair of the Stand Up Party. Similar protests will also take place on the same day at the University of California. California State Lois ersity and California commu-nity colleges.

"We are going to reach students who are the ones directly affected by such ice hikes which is a big blow, since you will then pay a fee of about 52.5(K) whereas right now, the students pay a fee of around $1.500: Iran said.

"We plan to inform people. keep se% eral tables on campus with fliers and make presentations to student organizations and also tell the legis-lature to support higher education." he said.

SJSU students hope to make the governor pull hack the proposal and gather more education advocates to support the cause taken up by the students, Tran said.

"Our party had campaigned for Associated Students elections, so we are sure about organizing this walk which is hound to urge students to join it." he said.

Statue memorializes honor society

By Rachel Hill Daily Staff Writer

A small crowd gathered at Boccardo Business Complex Plaza on Monday for the unveiling ceremony of the Beta Gamma Sigma Key Monument.

San Jose State University has become a part of an elite group of colleges chosen to boast the Key Monument on campuses. Only 85 key monument statues exist on college campuses across the world with a total of 425 colleges and universities participate in the scholastic organization worldwide.

The monument recognizes Beta Gamma Sigma’s contributions to the College of Business since the group’s establishment at SJSU in 1968. The organization is an honorary society for business schools ac-credited by the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business.

The 300-pound bronze statue stands about 6 feet tall and is encircled by do-nor bricks sold to partially fund the honor society’s shrine. Donor bricks Colt $75 per block mid are tosrmnd by the same cOM-

Speakers shared their appreciation for the new monument noting the prestige and uniqueness the bronze piece will bring to the university.

Faculty adviser William Morrison was the master of ceremonies for the event. Morrison offered background information about the society and its affiliation with the business program.

"This is a large key and a symbol we wanted to have on campus ... that hopefully says (studentsf can strive to achieve mem-berihip in Beta Gamma Sigma," Morrison said.

Getting the monument on campus took the efforts of several people including Nancie Fimbel, associate dean for under-graduate programs and DO-k Wassenaar, the Beta Gamma Sigma Chapter President and Morrison.

"We were dedicated to (the key monu-ment)," Monism said. "We felt that the investment in the funds were worth to have it on campus because now people look at it and every day students can be reminded that if they study a little harder

OPINION PAGE 2 SPARTAN DAILY TUESDAY APRIL 19, 2005

Opposing Should the university have spyware Views: on its wireless network?

Spyware does not have to be used for invasive purposes.

Spy software, also known as "spyware," has come to be known as a deceptive type of software that invades computer users’ privacy. This definition has come from the malicious users who abuse the software and its abilities. These users often disguise the software as another program. and when it is installed, the owner of the computer that it is installed on has no idea they are being spied on.

This type of spyware is used to steal passwords or follow Internet activity and report back to the spy. Information on demographics is col-lected to get a sense of what kinds of people go to which Web sites.

This is an outright abuse of the abilities of spy software and distin-guishes the difference between legal and illegal spyware.

Despite the common definition of spyware, there are legitimate pur-poses for, and uses, of the software.

According to Wikipedia.org, data-collecting programs installed with the user’s knowledge do not, technically speaking, constitute spyware. provided the user fully understands what data the programs collect and

with whom they share it. If the university was to install spy soft-

ware on the wireless network, it would need to notify every student using the network that the spyware is installed and the students’ actions will be monitored. The university will also have to educate the students on how the university plans to use the information collect, and what con-sequences may come to students who use it in a way that the university prohibits.

Without this notification, its use would be unethical and many students would feel

their privacy was violated. Even if students are notified, they may still feel as if their privacy is

being violated, but as long as the university is providing the wireless net-work to the students, the university a right to monitor how it is used.

The university would have a vested interest in how the network is be-ing used is to monitor any illegal activity on its network, which could range from cheating on exams to downloading copyrighted material such as music or movies.

In many classes, computers are used for exams. It is easy for any student using a computer during an exam to cheat by doing an Internet search for the answer or chatting with a classmate or friend at home on an instant messenger system.

Almost every student has had to sit through a lecture on the school’s policy on cheating and plagiarism, so each student should understand why the university will take further measures to prevent cheating.

Another reason would be to monitor Internet usage in class, especially if students are playing games that may distract others with constant mouse clicking or if they are chatting on instant messenger programs.

This type of spyware is used by a variety of customers. According to Spytech, a spy software company, its software has been used by con-cerned parents, worried spouses, government offices, corporate networks and educational insititutions.

NO Students should be responsible for their actions.

Spyware should not be added to the university’s wireless network so that professors can scrutinize students’ in-class laptop activities.

Excluding illegal actions, shouldn’t students have the right to use their laptops as they see fit’?

With the introduction of the wireless Internet network on campus. stu-dents can surf the Internet. chat with friends and send e-mail, distracting them from what’s going on in class.

However, the university does not have a right to monitor these ac-tivities through spyware. The addition of spyware would divulge privacy and financial issues for the university and students.

Incorporating spyware into the university’s wireless network raises many questions regarding the types of information that professors can access. Spyware compromises students’ privacy on the Internet and places an unnecessary burden on professors who will have to police and confront suspected students.

Although the university’s spyware program may not pose the same risks as the spyware and adware that en-ters computer systems through downloads. similar programs have the capability to track cookies, e-mail recipients, passwords and text from messaging.

How much information will the uni-versity’s spyware allow professors to view’? Will it be able to access the text of student’s instant messages or know the Web sites they visit’? Spyware could com-promise student’s feelings of security and anonymity on the Internet.

How will instructors handle the informa-tion received from spyware’?

Although some students do use the wireless ss stein tog, ,iihne during class, instructors should focus their time on the class instead of playing cop over the Internet. Professors’ time would be better spent on impros - ing their lectures, making them engaging, so students don’t lapse into boredom and resort to the Internet or instant messaging for amusement.

Adding spyware to the wireless network is not the answer to stop the problem of students’ attentiveness in class.

Lower grades, embarrassment and missed information should be pun-ishment enough for students who surf the Internet or instant message friends during class.

Every college student is responsible for getting to class and getting the work done.

Many students participate in activities that distract them from lecture anyway, such as reading the paper. sleeping or doing homework for other classes. Are the professors going to monitor that too?

With or without wireless Internet, some students will find something to avert their attention from classroom Jargon.

There are more significant financial needs that exist at the 1.1111%ersit

than paying for computer programs to track students’ Internet mil% its. Even if the university chooses to add spyware to the wireless network,

the problem with students not paying attention in class would persist.

RATED

New defense department a futile gesture The question as to whether intelligence-gathering

agencies can put aside their egos and play nice is one step closer to being answered.

The Senate Intelligence Committee approved Thursday President George W. Bush’s nominee. John D. Negroponte, as the first director of the newly cre-ated Department of National Intelligence. The depart-ment, which was created in December in response to the findings of the Sept. II commission, will be re-sponsible for the oversight of 15 agencies, including the CIA, FBI, the National Security Agency and the intelligence-gathering agencies of the armed forces.

Negroponte. former U.S. ambassador to Iraq. will participate in confirmation hearings in front of the whole Senate sometime this month.

While the idea of having a new department and an "intelligence czar" in place to bring the various spy agencies under control sounds wonderful, can it re-ally work?

If confirmed. Negroponte. who was ambassador to Honduras during the 1980s. will be in charge of a department responsible for unifying intelligence between the different agencies. Ni) one in the intel-ligence community, however, seems willing to coop-

crate with it. In fact, the new department’s biggest opponent

could be the Pentagon. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld vehe-

mently opposed the creation of the department when the legislation to cre-ate it was voted on in Congress back in December. claiming that the new department would conflict with the Pentagon’s role in intelligence-gather-ing.

In the ultimate vote of "no confi-dence." Rumsfeld said in a memo he has designated defense intelligence undersecretary Stephen Cambone as the DNI’s main liaison at the Pentagon. In the memo, Rumsfeld states that Cambone will be responsible for re-source and personnel management and the creation of new intelligence centers, which would cut into some of the DNI’s functions.

Rumsfeld has in effect created a buffer between the Pentagon and the DNI and in not so many words, given his approval for Cambone to toss DNI memos

into the trash can and withhold information. The Pentagon isn’t the only agency scrambling to

protect its bureaucratic independence. An article published in this month’s Time maga-

zine reports that FBI director Robert Mueller voiced his disapproval of a White House intelligence commission’s recom-mendations to shift some of his powers to the new department.

I wouldn’t blame them. After all. the FBI. CIA and the Pentagon took the brunt of the heat for the intelligence failings that led to the Sept. II. 2001 terrorist attacks and reported Saddam Hussein did in fact havc %%capons of mass destruction when he didn’t. Having someone come in and tell L.% eryone how things should he done is like [lasing salt rubbed into a wound.

Of course. Negroponte shouldn’t be surprised. The Sept. 11 commission said in a report that Negroponte should anticipate intelligence agencies resorting to underhanded methods to circle their wagons.

The law that gave birth to the DNI doesn’t even specify where the new department’s headquarters still

be. For all we know. Negroponte might have to set up shop at Barney’s doghouse or in the Washington Nationals’ dugout.

The amount of bureaucratic overlap is staggering and so far the only the thing the Bush administration has done is put the intelligence community knee-deep in a level of acronym hell.

Creating a new department certainly won’t fa-cilitate interagency communication. What it will do. howeser. is shift the pandering for money and re-sources from the president to the director of national intelligence.

There has to he some kudos for at least address-ing the shortcomings of U.S. intelligence gathering. I just don’t think creating a new agency to play referee between all the warring factions of spies is going to cut it.

What we get instead is another vague Cabinet de-partment and more bureaucratic layers that we can give tax dollars to with all the joy of an "English Patient- marathon.

CIA clears up myths at info session By Sergey Loginov

Daily Staff tinter

About 30 students gathered in the Almaden Room of the Student Union Monday to learn about ca-reer prospects with the CIA.

This was the second CIA infor-mation session held this academic year, following another successful one in the Fall semester, said Julie Vorhott, an employer relations co-ordinator at the Career Center.

A CIA recruiter named Marilyn tried to dismantle the aura of mys-tery and secrecy surrounding her organization.

She repeatedly emphasized that people who work for the agency "are people like you arc, regular people." but resolutely refused to give her last name.

"We don’t run around the world announcing our names," Marilyn said.

"It is incorrect to call CIA em-ployees ’agents’ � they are of-ficers," Marilyn said. "The word ’agents’ can only be applied to foreign nationals who provide information to the agency."

During the one-and-a-half hour information session, she talked about the CIA structure and the specifics of work in the agency.

Marilyn said prospective candidates may apply for jobs or internships in one of the four CIA directorates � operations, science and technology, intelli-gence, and administration.

CIA employees work either in the main office in northern Virginia or overseas.

According to Marilyn, the CIA offers jobs in more than HO catego-ries with positions ranging from accountants to make-up artists, and heavily invests into the education of its employees, if it is related to their field of specialization.

The CIA provides linguistic training in 16 languages, pays solid bonuses for good work-ing knowledge of the languages depending on their category of importance. Marilyn said.

"To apply for a job or an in-ternship with the OA, it is not mandatory to have a college de-gree," Marilyn said. "You need to he a U.S. citizen and drug free

within the last 12 months." All this information is a\ :id -

able at the CIA Web site, where Marilyn repeatedly sent students interested in applying for a job with the agency.

The Web site also contains a commercial in which a fictional CIA officer, played by "Alias- star Jennifer Garner, delivers a short speech that summarizes the infor-mation relayed by Marilyn.

"Right now, the CIA has impor-tant, exciting jobs for U.S. citizens ... especially those with foreign language skills." Garner said on the Web site. "Today, the collec-tion of foreign intelligence has never been more vital for national security. If you’re an American citizen and seek a challenging, rewarding career where you can make a difference in the world and here at home, contact the agency at

www.cia.gov.-"I don’t think the session

was mo informative," said Ryan Nothhaft, a junior majoring in business, who said he thinks about applying for a CIA job next semes-ter. "I cannot say I was intrigued any more than I already was."

Jonathan Roth. a junior major-ing in liberal studies, found the lecture interesting, but wasn’t completely satisfied with the fo-rum itself.

"She definitely knew what she was talking about," said Roth. "But I personally would prefer one-to-one communication than one to many."

Marilyn said the (’IA chose &NU for recruiting session be-cause of the universit) ’s ethnic diversity and focus on computer science and engineering related disciplines.

NURSING - U.S. has a shortage of more than 126,000 nurses

continued from page 1

Psychology. Human Anatomy, Human Physiology. Composition I and Microbiology 20. which is an introductory course on micro-biology.

Once the students meet this cri-teria, they are then ranked among other students based on their pre-requisite GPA. overall GPA and their Test of Essential Academic Skills � a test of English. reading comprehension, mathematics and basic science � scores.

Vanessa Baldwin. a junior ma-joring in nursing, said that this is her first semester in the nursing program.

"Getting into the program was nerve-wracking because a lot of students were applying." Baldwin said.

Those students who weren’t ac-cepted, Baldwin said, were upset and disappointed.

"However, a lot of the students didn’t do so well in their classes and now have to either repeat them or apply to another college," Baldwin said.

Baldwin said that she feels com-fortable in the program, which has about 50 to 60 students total, be-cause all students are on the same level in terms of working diligently and keeping up good GPAs.

"Professors told us that classes would be really intense and to stay focused and directed, but so far I’m doing well and am able to have a part-time job for the first time in college." Baldwin said.

Mann said the impaction pro-gram also includes an accelerated program for undergraduate and graduate students.

"The acceptance criteria is basi-cally the same except that under-graduate students applying for the accelerated program must have a GPA of 3.4," Mann said.

The accelerated program. Cohen said, is for honor students that have completed all upper gen-eral education courses.

"Undergraduate students in the accelerated program com-plete nursing courses within 18 months," Cohen said.

Under the regular impaction program. Cohen said, it would take students six semesters to complete their degree, but the accelerated program runs continuously.

Mann said that required classes in the accelerated program are the same in the impaction program, but are more intense because they must be completed in half the time. a total of five consecutive instruc-tion periods � spring semester. summer session, fall semester, winter session and another spring semester.

"The accelerated program is for students who can truly commit for 18 months and don’t mind sacri-ficing their personal time." Mann said. "The content is delivered quickly and students have an enor-mous time challenge."

Cohen said that funding for the accelerated program for both un-dergraduate and graduate students was provided by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, which contributed $5.5 million for the projects, "Bachelor of Science in Nursing Boot Camp" and "Master of Science Nurse Educators for Tomorrow: A Teacher Scholar Model."

According to the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation Web site, the organization attempts to improve the quality of nursing-re-lated patient care in hospitals with-in five Bay Area counties � San Francisco, San Mateo. Santa Clara. Alameda and Marin.

The foundation’s Web site said that the United States currently is in need of more than 126010 reg-

istered nurses. Cohen said the program for un-

dergraduate students will allow for three cohorts of 30 honors students to enter an 18-month accelerated bachelor of nursing program over five years.

Cohen said that the foundation allows for each accelerated pro-gram student a stipend of $24010 for tuition.

"The students pay their tuition back by working for a specified hospital that sponsors them for two to three years." Cohen said. "Students are very excited about this because they basically receive a free baccalaureate degree."

Phyllis Connolly. graduate co-ordinator for the school of nursing, said the accelerated program ap-plies to those graduate students with a bachelors of science in nursing or those who are registered nurses.

"The students must have a mini-mum 3.0 GPA and for full funding, they must agree to teach full-time in any registered nurse program in the live Bay Area counties." Connolly said.

Connolly said the students must be able to take the classes within 16 continuous months � a total of 36 units � and will receive a $20.000 stipend for their classes.

Mann said that it is harder to get into the nursing program be-cause of budget reductions and the change in economic climate in the Santa Clara Valley.

"People are not as happy with their careers and are looking for something more reliable, which is nursing." Mann said.

In the future. Mann said, career opportunities will change and the applicant pool in the nursing field will decrease.

GENOCIDE - Turkish government killed hundreds continued from page 1

around the world all week for pe, plc commemorate.

Petrosyan and Erik Vartanians, a junior majoring in accounting. along with Erik’s brother Hamiik Vartanians, are trying to raise awareness about the Armenian genocide, but emphasize that they are not a political organization.

"It’s a huge event in the Armenian community." Harmik Vartanians said.

Erik Vartanians said the day is commemorated worldwide.

Narineh Avanesian. a se-nior majoring in English, is an Armenian student at SJSU. She said her family commemorates the genocide April 24 but that she doesn’t usually hear much about it outside the Armenian community.

"I usually don’t hear anything about the genocide on the news." Avanesian said. "Most people don’t know Armenia is a country. It’s great that people are finally getting to know about us. Since we’ve been here, there’s been a big feeling of neglect with my family."

Avanesian said commemorat-ing the genocide has always been a big part of her family. She said they light incense around their house and remember those who died. She also said there is usu-ally a church service.

According to the CIA World Factbook. Armenia was the first country to formally adopt Christianity.

Armenia, a country in Southwestern Asia that is slightly smaller than the state of Maryland, has Turkey on its western border and Iran to its Southwest, according to the CIA World Factbook. Armenia’s population is slightly less than 3 million.

According to Armenian-genocide.org. April 24 is the commemoration day because on that day 90 years ago. the Turkish government arrested hundreds of Armenian community lead-ers and killed most of them. The genocide had begun before this event. but the rest of the world was unaware (il the atrocities. When prominent Armenian lead-ers were arrested on April 24, 1915, the rest of the world real-ized what was going on, accord-ing to the Web site.

Petrosyun said there are ap-proximately 9 million Armenians in the world, yet only one-third

of them list: in Armenia. The %ast migration was a result of the genocide. Petrosyan and the Vartanians said they all had fam-ily members who were affected by the genocide.

"Genocide has been just re-cently a big issue." Harmik Vartanians said. "If you look back into what happened in the last century. you’ll see that it’s more common than not."

Ilarmik Vartanians said rais-ing awareness serves a purpose other than just recognition of the genocide.

"It’s one of the most prevent-able types of human behavior," Hamfik Vartanians said. "Being aware is the most important part of preventing this kind of thing."

Erik Vartanians said the Armenian genocide was the first genocide of the 20th century and there have been many others that could have been prevented.

"It’s called different things. It’s called genocide, it’s called ho-locaust, it’s called ethnic cleans-ing, but in essence they’re all the same thing." Erik Vartanians said. "The more people know, the more aware they’ll be, and hope-fully the future leaders of tomor-row will be more aware of it."

The group is also trying to alert Armenian students about an Armenian Student Association they are trying to establish.

"We’re trying to get to-gether an Armenian Student Association, just to have a com-munity of Armenians on cam-pus," Erik Vartanians said.

He said the association would organize the Armenian popula-tion on campus and run cultural events for the students.

Petrosyan said the group can-not official register as a student organization until the Fall se-mester, so they are beginning to brainstorm and recruit members so when fall rolls around they are ready to begin.

Avanesian said that she was excited to hear about an Armenian student organization on campus and would definitely join.

was disappointed when there wasn’t one when I came tir campus four years ago,"

alleq011 said. "I don’t even knoss it other Armenians exist on this Lampus besides me."

Any students interested in joining. the Armenian Student Association can send an e-mail to ArmenianstudentsofSJSI.’ yahoo.com.

Experts to speak on alternative medicine,

chiropractic treatment By Ashley Johnson

Daily Stuff Writer

Three speakers will lecture on the benefits of alternative medi-cine in sports at noon today in the University Room.

A question and answer ses-sion will follow the lecture. Dr. William H. Tolhurst will speak on how chiropractics can help athletes rehabilitate and the ben-efits associated with chiropractics and alternative medicine.

"For people who are curious about how alternative medicine doctors really help people and how they go about helping peo-ple. this will be a great thing to come to," said Evan Mountford. a senior majoring in kinesiology, who organized the event.

Chiropractics is a holistic ap-proach. Mountford said. He add-ed that it’s important to treat the problems, not the symptoms.

With holistic medicine, rather than treating one part of the body, it is looked at as a whole unit.

"If you have a pain in your back and you just take pain medi-cation, that’s not going to solve the problem," Mountford said. "It’s going to mask a symptom but it’s not going to solve the problem."

Rather than prescribing pain medication to mask the symp-tom of a problem, doctors will prescribe muscle relaxants in the hopes that the muscles will relax enough to let the body put itself back into the proper alignment.

Chiropractors, on the other hand, will use adjustment tech-niques instead of muscle relax-ants and pain medication.

The second speaker. Dr. Michael McMurray, will shed light on chiropractic techniques such as the Cox Decompression Manipulation Technique.

The Cox Decompression Manipulation Technique is used to relieve pressure on discs in the lower back.

According to the Cox Technic Web site, this technique can ben-efit such conditions as arm, neck and leg pain and headaches.

Patients lie on a specially de-signed Cox Table, which allows a

doctor to move parts of the body. such as the head or limbs, in dif-ferent directions.

McMurray will also go over the history of chiropractics, the role they play and what it’s like to treat athletes.

The third speaker. Dr. Huy Doan, will speak about chiro-practics but also acupuncture and Oriental medicine.

The lecture hopes to inform students about the business and the field in general.

"Alternative medicine is such a growing field right now," Mountford said. "People don’t re-alize how big it’s getting. And if you’re going to be going into med-icine, its a really important thing to know about and tap into that."

Although the focus of the lec-ture is on alternative medicine in athletics as a trend, there are other trends that relate to the topic of alternative medicine.

Obesity is a growing trend and a potential market for people who can help people suffering from the disease.

"If you look at the top three things that are killing Americans, the first is coronary heart disease. the second is cancer and the third is stroke." Mountford said. "The seventh is diabetes but all of those things are related to obesity."

Obesity relates to the lecture in that it stresses the need to be physically active.

Consequently-. the field of chiropractics IS concerned with more than adjusting the back. It also has to do M, 1111 chiropractors’ lifesty

"A good chiropractor will focus on what your daily habits are and will help you to try � to improve your lifestyle � eat healthier, exercise, and they’ll teach you about proper body me-chanics," Mountford said.

The lecture will benefit those interested in entering the field of chiropractics or alternative health care by learning how to integrate all forms of health care, McMurray said.

"I don’t have all the answers and neither do other health care practitioners, hut there are a lot of answers when we all work to-gether," he said.

Lewis’ defensive, offensive threats help lead Spartans Batter boasts .373 batting average

By Ashley Little Maly Staff Writer

Remaining in fourth in the Western Athletic Conference, the San Jose State University softball team lost two of three games in a series against Fresno State Friday and Saturday. Utility player Courtney Lewis delivered a hit for the team in every game.

With 13 games left in the season. Lewis has already passed up last year’s statistics.

SOFT Overall record WAC record

28-20 4-5 Next home game

Thursday vs. Oregon State

Lewis ended last season with a .274 bat-ting average, and this year she leads with a .373.

There is more confidence on the plate thanks to new assistant coach Jen Goodwin. and it shows every time all the players step up. Lewis said.

Lewis can he seen in center held, on the mound, or sometimes at shortstop.

"You can put her anywhere." said out-fielder Elisa Barrios. "She always hustle,

everywhere she goes." As a pitcher. Lewis has three wins and

one save, but she has the most appearances in the outfield and up to bat.

This season alone she has had 34 runs scored, leads off with 60 hits, has 15 runs batted in, five doubles, three triples, and 12 walks.

Last season, she had 16 runs scored, 46 hits, three triples, and did not rank in the top three for doubles and walks. She has stepped up offensively and defensively. Barrios said.

"She is the leadoff hitter." said catch-er A.J. Hull. "She sets the tone for the team."

Hull said that this might be a lot of pressure when she steps up to the plate, but Lewis handles it well. She definitely gets the job done, Hull said.

Lewis has 179 total plate appearances with 161 at bats. She helps the team out game after game with a slugging percent of .460, an improvement to last season’s .333.

"She will always battle and wait for the perfect pitch." Hull said.

Lewis could be at the plate for 10 min-utes before something happens. She will always get a hit, Hull said.

Besides a great swing. Lewis also has great fielding. She has improved her field-ing percentage to .()(s9 compared to last

year’s .959. "Her accountability is her best attri-

bute." Barrios said. "In practice, she never gives up and always gets things done."

If someone is going to second, she will get them out, and if there is a pop-up to centerlield she will catch it. Barrios said.

When Lewis is on the mound, teams

might think that she does not haw as

much speed as other pitchers, but speed means nothing with her other strengths. Hull said.

-She has a great changeup and drop ball." Hull said. "She does her job and gets it done. -

When the other team members doubt her capabilities, she shows them they are wrong, Hull said.

Niners narrow No. 1 pick down to three candidates

SANTA CLARA (AP) Just how secretive are the San Francisco 49ers in the final days before the NFL draft? Their top personnel man claims he doesn’t know who the head coach wants to choose with the top pick.

"No, honestly." said Scot McCloughan, the Niners’ vice president of player personnel. "We have not spo-ken about it."

With five days left to make the biggest decision of his first season in charge of the franchise. coach Mike Nolan narrowed the Niners’ possible choices to three names on Monday: quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith and receiver BrayIon Edwards.

But with no clear No. I player in this spring’s crop. the 49ers are determined to keep all their options open. They are in contract talks with the agents for all three players, and Nolan doesn’t expect to reveal his choice until it’s announced by commis-sioner Paul Tagliabue on draft day.

And that’s only if the 49ers keep the pick: They have dis-cussed trading down with many teams, including every club in the draft’s top 10. Though San Francisco could use talent up-grades at nearly every position, the Niners also would love to al-low another team to risk that enor-

"... Once you show your hand, the

value of that pick is pretty much gone."

Mike Nolan, 49ers

head coach mous signing bonus and long-term commitment in exchange for more picks or players.

So Nolan has done everything short of putting a metaphorical "For Sale" sign on the top of the draft board � but if no deal happens, he also remains con-fident San Francisco can add a star to its roster.

"It’s important for us to maintain an open mind throughout this," Nolan said. "Once you show your hand, the value of that pick is pretty much gone. It’s important for us to take this to the very end to main-tain the value. ... All everyone is doing right now is talking, but if somebody wants their player, they have to COM to us."

It won’t be easy to move down. The Miami Dolphins, drafting at No. 2. also are actively shopping their pick. The 49ers have received calls from teams

hoping to trade up to secure Smith. Edwards or a running back, most likely Cedric Benson of Texas, hut they haven’t received a can’t-miss offer yet.

If the 49ers keep it. either Smith or Rodgers seems all but certain to he the fifth straight quarter-back chosen with the No. I pick � but the club isn’t betraying strong feelings about either college star. McCloughan said he has a favorite, but could cite almost no differences between the two, other than Smith’s height advantage and Rodgers’ superior arm strength.

Rodgers. Smith and Edwards all visited the 49ers’ training complex in Santa Clara last week, along with cornerback Antrel Rolle. in final auditions for

the No. I pick. Though Nolan previously

said contract negotiations would have a hearing on the selection. he backtracked Monday, saying the team would choose their fa-vorite player regardless of the cost. The 49ers would prefer to keep the signing bonus at a reasonable level � and they’re hoping the New York Giants’ lavish deal with Eli Manning last season hasn’t set an uncom-fortable benchmark.

Manning got a $20 million signing bonus and a six-year deal worth up to $54 million � but Nolan knows the Giants had

no negotiating leverage because they hadn’t spoken to Manning’s agent. Tom Condon, before acquiring Manning in a draft-day trade with San Diego.

Behind this veil of mystery, the 49ers probably have a No. 1 choice in mind, but won’t reveal it un-til the last possible moment to keep open all trade possibilities. McCloughan and Nolan spend more time worrying about the 49ers’ other II picks in the draft, including the first picks of the second and third rounds, as well as the first pick of the second day of the draft.

"The No. I pick in the draft is important. but we have two other picks (on the first day) that are just as important." McCloughan said. "That’s mostly what we base to worry about."

Monday Night Football moves to ESPN NEW YORK (AP) --- "Monday Night Football"

will leave ABC and move to ESPN starting with the 2006 season, ending a historic 35-year run on ABC that helped reshape sports broadcasting by transforming professional football into a prime-time event.

The NFL’s new broadcast deal also brings foot-ball back to NBC for the first time in six years. NBC will take over the Sunday night games currently broadcast on ESPN.

The "Monday Night Football" move to cable is expected to cost ESPN $1.1 billion over eight years, two sources familiar with the deals told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

NBC will get the Sunday night package for 5600 million over six years. according to the sources. The network will also get the Super Bowl in 2009 and 2012 as part of the deal, one of the sources said.

The NFL will continue to show all cable games on free, over-the air television in home markets. That means local stations will carry ESPN’s Monday night games in the cities of the teams in-volved.

The moves will leave ABC as the only major network without NFL football. "Monday Night

Football" has been an ABC staple and a hallmark of television sports programming since the days of Howard Cosell in the 1970s and early ItOs. It has been broadcast on ABC for its entire 35-year existence.

ABC and ESPN are both subsidiaries of The Walt Disney Co. The deal with ESPN. which currently carries games every Sunday night and sometimes on Thursday. was first reported by The Wall Street Journal.

"A great deal with the NFL is the best deal you can get in television," said NBC sports chairman Dick Ebersol. He said the network hasn’t started working on finding anchors for the Sunday night broadcast.

"We’re celebrating for a day," Ebersol said. "Then I’m sure we’ll get a lot of calls."

Last month, NF1.. commissioner Paul Tagliabue said that the Monday night move was a strong pos-sibility. ABC, which has been losing money on the package despite high ratings, had been balking at the NFL’s asking price.

NBC has been struggling in prime-time this sea-son, and even risks an unprecedented fall into fourth place in the ratings. ABC’s newfound ratings strength with "Desperate Housewives" on Sunday nights has been particularly damaging.
