"I knew in his heart he wanted to stay," he said. "It wasn't his time. I knew he wanted to stay." Others were not as confident. "I'm shocked," said ESPN draft expert Mel Kiper, Jr. "I thought he would be entering the draft with the rest of the juniors like (San Diego State running back) Marshall Faulk and (Tennessee quarterback) Heath Shuler." Kiper added that, should Wheatley continue to play at the record-break- ing standards that he has performed at, he would probably be the first player chosen in next year's draft. Michigan's all-time touchdown leader was being pegged as the second-best running back in this year's draft, fol- lowing Faulk. However, in postponing his entry into the NFL, Wheatley acknowl- edged that he would run the risk of suffering a career-ending injury. "But in order to play a sport like this, you can't think about that. If I was worried about blowing out a knee, I wouldn't have chosen to play foot- ball, I would have run track," said Wheatley, also a memberof the Michi- gan track and field team. "I would have put my aspirations on running in the Olympics if I thought about blow- ing out my knee."

"I'm very happy, not just for the touchdowns and those things," Moeller said. "It's just the continued association with him. I'm happy for the rest of the team." Wheatley was a preseason All- America this past season as well, but a disappointing team record as well as two games missed due to a shoulder injury kept him from receiving simi- lar postseason recognition. He finished eighth in the balloting for the prestigious Heisman, but did earn his second consecutive bowl game MVP trophy, earning Hall of Fame Bowl MVP honors New Year's Day in Michigan's 42-7 victory over North Carolina State. Wheatley was also voted the most valuable player in the 1993 Rose Bowl after a record- setting performance. Wheatley's next touchdown would break his tie with Anthony Carter for most career touchdowns with 41. He can also become the all-time leading rusher at Michigan with 1,360 yards next season. He gained 1,357 this year despite the sidelining injury. "Why not leave college as one of the greatest running backs of all-time, and then go to the NFL and be one of the great backs of the NFL," Wheatley posited. Continued from page 1 sophomore Meghan O'Keefe, prais- ing her personal Florence Nightin- gale. But Leah's expertise is not limited to the hospital or University. LSA sophomore and rugby team- mate Rebecca Belian said, "During a game if a referee is doing something wrong she'll go out onto the field and tell them what they're doing wrong. She knows more than the refs do." Since her award notice, Leah has received congratulations from a col- orful spectrum of people, including an MTS message from University President James Duderstadt and a mysterious letter from an allegedly innocuous inmate in a Florida prison. During her five years as a Univer- sity student, Leah has concentrated in political science and the Center for Afro-American Studies (CAAS). She came to the University after studying for a year in Norway with the dream of one day working as a politician in Washington. In her sophomore year she discovered she enjoyed studying Afro-American studies and has been pursuing this interest ever since. She began the Rhodes scholarshi0 application process during the sum- mer of 1993 while studying at the University of West Indies in Mona, Jamaica. In the midst of the Reggae Festival, Sunsplash, she Federal Ex- pressed letters to her professors re- questing recommendations on her behalf to qualify for the Rhodes schol- arship. CAAS Prof. Yaw Twumasi, whle received his Ph.D. at Oxford, said he had his former student pegged early on as a definite future recipient of the award. "I went to Oxford myself," he said. "I have seen Rhodes scholars. I knew this girl was going." Another professor said she is also confident in Leah's future success. CAAS Prof. Gracia Clark said, "I think she'll do well in the British system because it stresses indepen- dent study. She's very good at that." Leah shows this love for indepen- dent study in the advice she gives to future Rhodes applicants. "I think stu- dents should study what they like, and be genuine about those interests," she said. "Get to know your professors, and be involved."

ELIZABETH LIPPMAN/Daily Rackham student Tom Wolfe studies at a coffee shop yesterday. Wolpe leads in campaign funding LANSING (AP) - Former U.S. Rep. Howard Wolpe took an early lead in fund-raising over his rivals for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination by reporting yesterday he had $834,000 in his campaign piggy bank. Wolpe said he raised $410,000 last year. Of that, $212,000 came in donations of $100 or less and was eligible for a 2-to-I match in public matching funds. That brought in an- other $424,000. "I don't believe there could be a more powerful demonstration of the kind of grass-roots base that has been established for my campaign all over Michigan," he said. State Sen. Debbie Stabenow of Lansing reported last month raising $450,174 in small contributions and matching funds. Former Michigan State Univer- sity trustee Larry Owen of East Lan- sing said in December he had $270,000 in contributions and match- ing funds. The fourth Democrat in the race, Rep. Lynn Jondahl of Okemos, hasn't reported his fund-raising progress. Campaign manager Jim Curran said the campaign has raised about $125,000 and will file for matching funds soon. Candidates who accept matching funds agree to spend no more than $2 million in theprimary election. Wolpe, of Lansing, said he doesn't expect any problem raising the balance. A consultant for Owen said Wolpe's lead was unimpressive. "He raised twice as much money as Larry, but Larry has been running for 90 days and Howard for over a year. That's the comparison we've made," said Robert Kolt, of Kolt and Serkaian Communications. Wolpe's total also included money left over from his congressional cam- paign, Kolt said. Wolpe's campaign said that amounted to $38,000. Stabenow said she will top $620,000 by month's end, despite spending the lion's share of her time working on school finance in the state Senate and refusing to take money from political action committees.
