Attention focuses more on pressing fiscal issues • The Clarion-Ledger, Jackson, Milis., on Preside11t Bush ha ~ had its eye on the war in Iraq and terrorism, but attention is now turning to domestic issues. That's President Bush's newest political challenge. Bush has proven to be an aggressive "war" leader, but it's the "bread 'n' butter" domestic issues that win elections. So far, the major "bread 'n' butter" issue for Bush is cutting taxes (and an education bill passed in his first 90 days). · Surely. it's not lost on him that his father came away from -the Persian Gulf War with high public opinion polls only to be _dumped a few months later by a former governor from Arkansas. The election mantra of the Clinton campaign was: " It's the economy, stupid'" Bush has a good excuse with the effects of 9/11 and other economic factors. But if the economy doesn't pi·ck up, Bush II could face similar problems. The biggest problem is a lack of fiscal discipline. A budget surplus has been turned into $6.4 trillion in debt. Since both the House and Senate are in GOP hands, Bush should have carte blanche and it will be hard to blame Democrats. The biggest economic initiative has been a massive tax cut .proposal, which has gained criticism from fiscal leaders in his ,own party. With 18 rrionths until the presidential election , there 's still plenty of time for Bush to start buttering bread. and the eamomy: The nation TODAY IN HISTORY . Today in History BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS . Today is Friday, May 9, the I 29th day of 2003. There are 236 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On May .9, 1961, Federal Communications Commission -chairman Newton N. Minow condemned television program·ming as a "vast wasteland" in a speech to the National 'Association af Broadcasters. On this date: In 1502, Christopher Columbus left Cadiz, Spain, on his · fourth and final trip to the Western Hemisphere. In 1913, the 17th amendment to the Constitution, providing for the election of U.S. senators by popular vote rather than selection by state legislatures, was ratified.

In 1936, Italy annexed Ethiopia. · In 1945, U.S. officials announced that a midnight entertain'ment curfew was being lifted immediately. In 1960, the Food and Drug Administration approved a pill as safe for birth control use. The pill , Enovid, was made by G.D. Searle and Company of Chicago. In 1974, the House Judiciary Committee opened hearings on whether to recommend the impeachment of President Nixon. In 1978, the bullet-riddled body of former Italian prime minister Aldo Mora. who'd been abducted by the Red Brigades, was found in an automobile in the center of Rome. In 1980, 35 motorists were killed when a Liberian freighter rammed the Sunshine Skyway Bridge over Tampa Bay in · Florida, causing a I ,400-foot section to collapse. In 1994, South Africa's newly elected parliament chose · Nelson Mandel a to be.the country's first black president. Ten years ago: The White House said President Clinton had directed Secretary of State Warren M.

Friday, May 9, 2003 TB ·A·momentous decision .ahead Sometime before the end of its current term in June, the Supreme Court is expected to rule on two affirmative action cases involving the admission procedures of the William University of Michigan. At Rusher stake is a simple but momentous question: Can public universities reject white · or Asian applicants in favor of black or Hispanic applicants who may be academically nic mixture of certain less qualified? desired proportions-- should The argument against outweigh the traditional rejection rests on two principle that admission grounds: The. 14th ought to be based strictly on Amendment's assertion that academic merit. , no state shall "deny to any Some of the arguments put person within its jurisdiction forward in support of the !atthe equal protection of the ter view are easily dismissilaws," and the provision in ble.

But the grounds of race, color or Civil Rights Act doesn't pronational origin" in any pro- hibit all discrimination gram or institution receiving against applicants with better federal financial assistance. academic credentials -just The arguments in favor qf . discrimination "on the such discrimination (or grounds of race, color or "affirmative action," as it is national origin." called) have varied over the As for "diversity," one years, but the arguments · ~an't help wondering why, if before the Court boiled Ills sotmportant a part of the down, essentially, to the educatiOnal .expenence, the proposition that a universi- pollttcal sc1ence and ecoty's interest in the "diversi- nomics departments of most ty" of its student body universities are so monolithi.e., in having a racial or eth- tcally liberal when It comes Pa~t to their faculties. Shouldn't students be exposed to a wide variety of political views? Moreover, recent inquiries into the impact of diversity on college student bodies raise considerable doubt as to just how desirable it is. A just-published study by Stanley Rothman, Seymour Martin Lipset and Neil Nevitte professors at Smith College, George Mason University and the University of Toronto, respectively - reports that "the greater the school's diversity, the less students were satisfied with their own educational experience. In addition, greater diversity was associated with percep. tion~ of less academic eft'ort .among students and a poorer overall educational · experience." Much has been made of the fact that Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf . and other notable military figures have submitted briefs to the Supreme Court in support of affirmative action. But training officers .(for example) in how to lead our racially mixed armed forces obviously requires teaching them special skills. We tend to forget all too readily that affirmative action - which is to say, reverse discrimination in favor of some minority groups - is not a "victimless crime" - an innocent little favor done for a member of a minority with a long history of inexcusable abuse. College admission is a zerosum game, and for every black applicant admitted as a result of affirmative action there is somewhere out there - unpublicized and forgot- . ten - a white or Asian student with superior academic credentials who was rejected solely because he or she had the wrong skin color. That is not a prescription for racial harmony. The Supreme Court has the unenviable task of choosing one of two possible future courses for America: A course that commits this country to playing favorites among its racial and ethnic blocs, based on supposed disadvantages in their ancestral history, or one that judges individuals on the merits they themselves have displayed.

It is possible to go through life and miss all these. things because we are too busy planning for the future . Anybody can sit and dream of the future, but to change the quality of a day - that takes an extraordinary person -and few things in life offer more satisfaction. To pull the covers over your head at night and say, "I did my best today" - that's a great feeling. Le Baron Russell Briggs, well-known American educator and Harvard dean. was one of the wisest and most understanding of college deans. Of the many stories about him, here are two of my favorites: He once called into his office a student who hadn't been doing very well in his work . The boy gave Briggs a long Iist of excuses why he hadn't done •better. They were the kind of excuses we all have used when asked to explain our failures. Briggs heard the boy out and then he looked him in the eye and said, "Jack, have you ever in your life done any- · thing the best you could?" He had put his finger on the· problem. On another occasion, a student• was called into Briggs' office for failing to take an examination. His excuse was that he wasn't feeling very well that day. "Mr. Smith," said Briggs, "did it ever occur to you that most of the work of the world is being done by people who aren't feeling very well?'' To do the best we can and to offer no excuses may be the highest office to whtch we are called. And if we do that, the future will take care of itself. To change the quality of a day may not seem like a .great challenge but it .is really the greatest challen~e of all. To help you keep thts in mind, let me give you three truths to remember as you go through life: 1) There are greater things than greatness; 2) Little things mean a lot; 3) Someone is watching you .

Michael Jordan won't have to comb through the classifieds long. Bob Johnson has a job waiting for him with Charlotte's expansion team - if he wants it. Friends for over 12 years, Jordan and Johnson spoke on the phone Wednesday shortly after the Washington Wizards told Jordan they didn't want him back as president of bas· ketball operallons. · "He just called to say, 'Hey, I wanted to let you know what decision has been made. When JIOU get a chance, let's talk,"' Johnson said. "We're friends. It won't take us very long to get together." When they eventually meet, Jordan will have his pick of roles with the new Charlotte team. Part owner? Sure. President of basketball operations? No problem. Either way, Jordan will certainly get better treatment than . he g_ol from the ~1Z3fds. , Drsappomted wtth \he team s poor record and embarrassed by infighting on and off the court, owner Pollio told Jordan he wasn' t wanted back in a h · u· t th s 0 11 mommg mee ng a e team's arena. Johnson also was surprised with the way the WIZ3rds handied.the situation. "But if you are going to do something like that ... to someone who may be sitting across the table at a Board of Governor's meeting, class and style dictate you don't handle it that W'ilY·" Jordan -had a 3 1/2-year tenure with the WIZ3Cds, the last two as a player. His hasty departure came as somewhat of a surprise. Jordan was the Wizards' president before coming out of retirement to play the past two years. He retired for good last month and was expected to return to the front office. Johnson, founder of BET, paid $300 million for his yetto-be-named team, which will begin play in 2()(}4-05 and replace the Hornets, who left for New Orleans last year. . He was expected to pursue Jordan but had to wait until Jordan first settled things in Washington. Johnson would not assess what kind of job he thought Jordan did during his time in Washington. Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to six NBA titles in the 1990s but never came close to dupliin cating that · success Washington. Now, he could come aboard an expansion team that will' have to be built from the ground up. It's a job Larry Bird really wanted, but lost out when the NBA awarded the Charlotte franchise to Johnson instead of Bird's group. Johnson has ruled out hiring Bird. So far, Johnson has made just one significant hire in Ed Tapscott, who was hired in January as executive vice president. Tapscott came highly recommended by Jordan, Johnson said. He was expected to be the architect of the franchise, but Jordan could now take · over that role if he wants it. Johnson said he was confident Jor¢In and Tapscott could. work together should Jordan want to run -basketball operations.

Boone hit five homers in the series, going 7-for-14 overall, as the Reds played to their strengths against a struggling bullpen. The hitters sti 11 take too many big swings - the Reds lead the NL in both homers (54) and strikeouts (303) - but they're starting to connect at just the , Bv ToM and terrific potential should realize that." So what happens if the Cavs don ' t win the lottery? After all , there is a 77 .5 percent chance of that happening . " If we can't have No . I, we 'd like No . 2," Gund quipped . Carmela Anthony. who led Syracuse to .an NCAA title as a freshman this season. and Serbian star Darko Milicic likely will be the two players taken after James. While neither would boost the Cavs' image or home attendance like. James. both players appear to be good fits into Cleveland's young ro ster. The Cavs were th·e NBA's youngest team last season. Guml has not discounted the possibility of getting a quality player at No.4 or 5, either. "Kevin Garnett, Vince Carter, Charles Barkley and Scottie Pippen were all No . Ss ," Gund said. "We feel very confident there will be a player there to help us ." · Gund, who reiterated he is not selling or moving the Cavs, said if Clevefand doesn 't get one of the top three picks, another option would be to trade its selection or ·pac'kage it with players in a deal to get some quality veterans. Cleveland's coaching search might also be affected by the outcome of the draft lottery. The chance to coach James or Anthony cou ld entice some . high-profile coaches to contact the Ca vs and broaden the club's current list of candidates. Gund said he is in the initial stages of the coaching search, but has not yet conducted any interviews. The Cavaliers fired John Lucas after 42 games last season and · replaced him on an interim basis with assistant WITHERS ·Associated Press • CLEVELAND - Even "Cleveland · Cavaliers owner Gordon Gund has trouble fathoming the impact high school star LeBron James would have on his team. : "Boy, do l want to find but! " Gund said Thursday. JWO weeks before the NBA i:lraft lottery where James will be the coveted top prize for 13 teams . · After finishing the season tied with the Denver Nuggets for the league' s .worst record, the Cavaliers h.ave a 22.5 percent chance of getting the No . l pick. They'll also have a 20.3 percent chance of getting the second pick and a 17.6 percent chance of picking third. · No matter which way the ping'-pong balls drop May 22, Cleveland can do no worse than No. 5. "And that 's the best ;(highest) pick we wi ll have ·had since 1986," said bund, who will represent ~he Cavaliers on stage in ·secaucus, N.J. , for the lottery's prime time TV tele<:ast. "We.' d love to have :the first pick, and we all );now who that will be. " - That would be James. the :18-year-old star from Akron who could transform Cleveland into one of the league 's hot ·spots and save .a franchise that's seemingly in decay. Gund, who in addition to preparing for the lottery is also searching for a head coach, understands James' enormous potential. "I · think he could do a great deal, both short and long term," Gund said. "C learly in the short term 'because he' s home gro,wn and all of that. He would instantly help us a great deal to bring fans into the building. Over the lon g term, he appears to have Keith Smart. Smart is one of several candidates on the Cavs' wish list , which may also include former New York Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy and Paui .Silas, who was fired by New Orleans last week. Interestingly, Van Gundy's name was the only one Gu nd brought up during a 40-minute interview. "This (coach ing searc h) is the highest priority right now for the franchi se," said Gund, who plans to Work closely with general manager Jim Paxson to find the team 's next coach. "This decision is one of the most important since I acquired the team 20 yea rs ago." Getting a coach in place quickly isn't important to Gund; who hopes to have one in place by the June 26 draft. ."We want to name our basketball coach as soon as we have the right person," he said. "We're trying not to let any time deadline drive us. We really want it to be the right choice."

Stephenson never got comfortable at Great American, which plays much like Colorado's Coors Field on warm days - sort of a Coors Light. The game came down to the bullpens, the one area where the Reds have a pronounced advantage . Scott Sullivan (3-0) got the victory in relief of Paul Wilson, while Mike Crudale (0-1) iook over for Stephenson and gave up the . go-ahead run . The Cardinals came to town with a seven-game winning streak and first place in the NL Central. They left with simmering frustration. right time. They won the first two games of the series. on ninth-inning homers Boone 's solo shot and Larkin's two-run homer. They hit I 0 in all, half of them by their third baseman, who couldn't even try to explain the spurt. His father wasn ' t surprised. The Cardinals made it · easy for Boone and the rest of the Reds' offense. A bullpen missing closer Jason lsringhausen has converted only five of 14 save opportunities, leaving the Cardinals 2-9 in one-run games and 4-5 in two-run decisions. Manager Tony La Russa cringed as his pitching staff made one mistake after another during the series, especially to Boone. RBis in ·33 games. He drove in a career-high 123 runs in each of the previous two seasons. Kennedy led off the Angels third with a single, advanced on a balk and scored Anaheim's second run from third on a groundout by Anderson that would have been a hit if not for second baseman Brandon Phillips' diving stop in the hole. attempt to barehand a come'backer by Tim Salmon and detlected it away from shortstop Omar Vizquel, loading the bases. Anderson then drove a 2-0 pitch to right-center for the Angels' first grand slam this season and a 6-l lead .

ABBY: I am engaged to be married in September to the most wonderful man in the world. We are wildly in love. We're both mtddte -aged with grown children from previous marriages, so we took our time and approached this relationship with caution . He is Jew1sh and I am gentile, but our families get along and are thrilled about our upcoming union. My problem: With tensions over the political situation in the Middle East, anti-Semitism is on the rise where we live . Since the uncertainty of Sept. 11, my family has become concerned fer my safety should I take on a Jewish- sounding name. My mother remem~ bers the horror of World War II, so her fear is understandable. I would · feel uncomfortable, however, NOT taking my husband's · name. It would appear to the world that I am ashamed ' Of his ethnicity or not accepting of it. How can I reassure my family that I am doing the · right thing? I love them dearly and don't want them to worry, but I couldn'tlive with myself if I didn't do this. - BRIDE· TO-BE IN FERNDALE, MICH. Dear Abby ADVICE DEAR BRIDE·TO-BE: Bigotry seems to be a prob- . lem that refuses to die, and almost anyone can be a target. No matter how much we might wish otherwise, if people are determined enough, the~ will always find somethtng to dislike about a11other person or group. · Hatred against entire j;roups is usually caused by tgnorance or a perceived economic threat. ·Please tell your . mother that it is no more dangerous to be l\ Jew in this country than it is to be an African-American, a Hispanic, an Asian or an Arab. Most bigots are cowards and don't act out violently. And while we're on this subject, read on for another example: DEAR ABBY: Yesterday, a co-worker who is Belgian (and speaks Frepch, Flemish and English) made an important presentation to a prospective client. Upon hearing his accent, the client said that before he would even consider the proposal, , my co-worker would have to prove he was not French. Th1s is obviously because of the French government's policies toward the · war in Iraq. What do you think of the. client's behavior? SHOCKED IN ILLINOIS . DEAR . SHOCKED: People who indulge in that kind of thinking have a lot of growing up to do. I think sucb an attitude is asinine on par with "freedom fries," "freedom toast" and "freedom kissing." . · DEAR: ABBY: I have been dating "Whitney" for more than a year and have decided to propose. My problem is I was recently laid off from my job and don't have enough money to buy an en,gagement ring. Would 1t be improper to ask Whitney to marry me without giving her a ring right now, or should I wait to ask her when I have the money to buy her a ring? STONE BROKE IN LIT· TLEROCK DEAR STONE BROKE: Tell Whitney how you feel about her, and ask her if she would like to become engaged or wait until you can give her a traditional engagement ring. You might be pleased to learn that having an engagement ring is less important to her than having you as her future husband. After all. a ring is just a symbol . The real "jewel" is the person you marry. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded ~y her mother; Pauline l?hillips.

Aner a multicar crash on lap 268 of Saturday niglit's Pontiac Excitement 400. Green pointed the fmger at teammate Kevin Harvick. "It's one thing to get spun out," Green said , "and another to be spun out by your own teammate. It seems li ke there's really only one team at RCR . Kevin (Harvick) spun me out.

By Monte Dutton NASCAR This Week L ' et's say it once and for all: There's a lot more to this Nemechek guy than just "Front Row Joe." Joe Nemechek was, is and probably always will be a dazzling qualifier. but to some, the "Front Row Joe" moniker suggests that Nemechek doesn't do as well on race day. , How unfair ... and how untrue. Nemechek's victory in Saturday night's Pontiac Excitement 400 at Richmond International Raceway was his third. He's also won six poles in his career. He was champion of the Busch Series in 1992. He's 'a fine driver who, at 39, may be just entering his prime. "When you get a car that'll go that good- high, low, wherever you want it to go- it's fun," Nemechek said after winning at Richmond. "We've been so close to winning and here we are. "We've been trying to get into victory lane, and I think this is just one of many to come." The Chevrolet Nemechekdrives, Hendrick Motorsports' No. 25, has been kind of the underachiever of the multicar team, which also includes · four-time champion Jeff Gordon, two· time champion Terry Labonte and young up-and-comer Jimmie Johnson. "This car has definitely had some tough times," Nemechek said, "but it's back. Papa Joe Hendrick, Rick Hen. drick and John Hendrick all believed • in me and gave me the job to come drive this thing. I knew I could get . them back in victory lane. It was just a matter of time. We've got all the right pieces to the puzzle now and I think you're going to see more."
