Leak a cause for concern

By Jim Harper · Thursday, Oct. 9,2003 1:19 a.m.

A big story emerged in Washington, D.C., last week. It concerns Valerie Plame, a clandestine CIA operative. Plame served under "non-official cover," which means that when working abroad, she doesn't enjoy any sort of diplomatic immunity. Yet, a senior Bush administration official decided to give Plame's name to the media. Shocking.

Freshmen lead IU against Butler

By Dan Cohen and Daniel Cohen · Thursday, Oct. 9,2003 12:14 a.m.

With eight minutes remaining in IU's Big Ten opener against Michigan State, it appeared freshman Jed Zayner's defensive misplay would cost the Hoosiers the game and their 39-game Big Ten winning streak. But, as one freshman's miscue led to a goal, another freshman scored a goal. Jacob Peterson tied the game and salvaged the streak with a goal in the 82nd minute. At times this season, half of the 11 IU players on the field have been freshmen and not since his son's 1991 squad can Coach Jerry Yeagley recall an IU team so young and inexperienced. "When you have 10 field players and half of them are freshmen, that is just unheard of at IU," Yeagley said. "But these guys are no longer freshmen now that they have a half season under their belt." Five freshmen, including Zayner, Peterson, Julian Dieterle and red shirts John Hayden and Josh Tudela have started at least five of the eight games this season. In fact, Zayner and Dieterle have started all eight games for the Hoosiers, six of which were against ranked opponents.

Film remains 'unscarred' after 20 years

By C. Warner Sills and Jake Bilinski · Thursday, Oct. 9,2003 12 a.m.

His sister dead, his wife gone and his empire collapsing, Tony arms himself to the teeth, firing a grenade into the path of unsuspecting assassins as he warns, "Say hello to my little 'fren!'" At this point, if you're not cheering, you don't have any business watching movies.

Lessons learned from a skanky reality show

By Natalie A. Trout · Thursday, Oct. 9,2003 12 a.m.

Since June, twice a week my nights have been drama-filled with hook-ups, break-ups, parties and unexpected twists. No, I haven't been partying at the local bars and I don't belong to a sorority. Fox's "Paradise Hotel" has become an addiction to many on this campus. My roommates and I almost cried when the scandalous last episode aired last Wednesday.
