A piece of Indiana

By C. Warner Sills and Jessica Wolfe · Friday, Jan. 26,2007 12 a.m.

As a young man, Bob Nellis didn't just go to the theater to see the latest flick to hit the big screen. In fact, because of a curfew, he rarely saw a whole movie start-to-finish. He really went to "The Indiana" -- now the Buskirk-Chumley Theater -- in downtown Bloomington to see his friends and pass the time. Sometimes he would go just to hear stories from Roy Hays, the theater's projectionist. Nellis' father worked with Hays in the theater, and between the two men, Nellis heard many stories over the years about life at the theater.

IU sophomore swimmer Heath Tameris swam in his first IU-Purdue meet last year. Growing up in Ohio, Tameris wasn't aware of the intensity of the in-state rivalry. After swimming in last year's meet, however, Tameris recognizes that there is more on the line than usual when these two teams compete.

Usually in this column space, I try to write some breathy prose about the men's basketball team. You know, relating each game to the big picture of the season and telling you what it all means, man. Let's ditch that for a day. Here are your mid-season awards and accolades 66 percent of the way through the regular season. Whoops.

Can the Hoosiers rebound?

By Matt Mattucci · Thursday, Jan. 25,2007 11:45 p.m.

The IU men's basketball team hopes to rebound Saturday afternoon against the Michigan Wolverines, and in more ways than one. Besides chasing down missed shots and crashing the offensive glass, the Hoosiers will also look to rebound from their recent loss to Illinois. The Hoosiers lost 51-43 to the Fighting Illini on Tuesday night in Champaign, Ill., which ended IU's five-game winning streak. IU coach Kelvin Sampson has stressed all year the importance of his players being able to hang their hats on something. That something, he hoped, would be the Hoosiers' defense and rebounding.
