Spartans slay Hoosiers

By Sara Meinecke and Sarah Meinecke · Wednesday, Jan. 29,2003 1:17 a.m.

EAST LANSING, Mich. -- The No. 19 IU men's basketball team needed two things to happen Tuesday night. The first was that the Hoosiers figure out how to carry their home-court intensity with them to away games. The second was that the starting line-up would include freshman guard Bracey Wright. The Hoosiers showed a higher level of intensity against Michigan State, and IU's leading scorer, Wright, who returned to the court as a starter after a four-game hiatus, contributed to this. But these factors were not enough to boost the Hoosiers (14-5, 4-3 Big Ten) over the Spartans (11-8, 3-4), as Michigan State won 61-54.

The love and drive of the arts bring inspiration to Bloomington. Bloomington's newest gallery, The Gallery North, plans to inform and educate the community about the many creative outlets of a work of art. While the gallery has been in operation since December 2002, the grand opening of the gallery is from 5:30 to 10 p.m on Feb. 7. A silent auction will be held with a portion of the proceeds going to the Hoosier Hills Food Bank. Well-known Nashville artist Charlene Marsh will be the guest artist featured in the Spectrum Gallery. The gallery was started at the end of September 2002 by gallery president Jackie White and Paula Bates. They wanted to offer a venue for emerging as well as well-established artists, Bates said. The club of 38 members spans from young student members to a woman in her 80s.
