Regional rival Kentucky visits Memorial Stadium Saturday

By Gavin Lesnick · Friday, Sept. 19,2003 2:14 a.m.

In his second year at IU, coach Gerry DiNardo has yet to lead the football team to consecutive victories. But that could change when the Hoosiers play host to Kentucky 4 p.m. Saturday at Memorial Stadium after beating Indiana State 33-3 last weekend. A win would secure bragging rights in one of IU's fiercest regional rivalries. "When coach DiNardo came in last year, he wasn't really sure about the rivalry," senior wide receiver Glenn Johnson said. "He didn't really know the meaning of it, but then when he saw how those guys played, he bought into it, and he saw where it was coming from, as far as it being a pretty intense game and you gotta go out and lay it all on the field against Kentucky."

Saying goodbye

By Alex Hickey · Friday, Sept. 19,2003 2 a.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- With the flags over the Statehouse flying at half-staff Thursday, hundreds of mourners filed into the building to pay their last respects to Gov. Frank O'Bannon. They entered the building under the watchful eyes of various members of the Indiana National Guard, Indiana State Police and Indiana fire departments who rigidly stood at attention. The police and firefighters wore black bands over their badges to honor their fallen chief. O'Bannon, 73, died Saturday due to complications from a stroke he suffered five days earlier while attending a conference in Chicago. After walking in, visitors were greeted by photographs that chronicled O'Bannon's life, from black and white photos of his youth to color shots of his two terms as Indiana governor. Sitting under a giant American flag in the rotunda was an oil painting of O'Bannon, which mourners paused in front of as violinists played a somber tune a few yards away.

Actually, this observation about the fashion industry has always troubled me. I try to have a casual conversation and it turns into work. I find myself doing an interview or making a connection to find a job.
