NEWS The Michigan Daily - Thursday, October 21, 2004 - 7A The Michigan Daily - Th usdayOctberL1.204-r- I HIGHER ED Continued from page 1A a national service plan to pay full college tuition for hundreds of thousands of stu- dents who work for two years, a $4,000 tax credit for families with children in college and $10 billion for fiscal relief to be distributed among states that keep tuition down at public universities. Kerry's $10 billion for states that limit tuition is part of a proposed $25 bil- lion one-time general relief fund to help states with budget deficits. Jason Furman, economic policy director for the Kerry campaign, said Michigan would receive $347 million in fiscal relief from the fed- eral government in exchange for keeping tuition increases at or below inflation. Only Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania would receive more aid than Michigan under this plan. But Kerry has also promised to cut the federal budget deficit in half within four years, and recently conceded that he may have to scale back his national service plan to meet that goal. Furman said that means the plan will cover 500,000 stu- dents per year, instead of the 1 million originally proposed. Under Kerry's national service plan, students would have the option of working either full-time or part-time HAZING Continued from page 1A incidents may have been reported. "We will keep trying to explore whether or not there was any crimi- nal activity," Brown said. Bach said the Hazing Taskforce is also taking the allegations seri- ously. The taskforce, which meets every for two years. Part-time participants would receive up to $2,000 per year for four years of college, and full-time workers would be given full tuition for four years at a public university. Available work in the part-time service program would include sup- porting at-risk preschoolers, tutoring young children in reading and men- toring at-risk teenagers. The full-time service program would put students to work as teachers and teachers' aides in elementary schools, builders in low-income housing projects and park workers among other jobs. Kerry's proposal calls for enroll- ing 200,000 students per year in the full-time program and 300,000 per year in the part-time program within a decade. To pay for his national service plan, Kerry says he will overhaul student loans, requiring banks to bid for stu- dent loan contracts at an auction and cutting subsidies for banks that give out student loans. Kerry's campaign projects this will save the federal gov- ernment $14 billion over a decade. Kerry's campaign says the tax cred- its and fiscal aid for states would be paid for by rolling back Bush's tax cuts for people who earn more than $200,000 a year. Thursday, will look at all of the cases individually before making any decisions regarding disciplin- ary action. Five officers on the task force are trained in the investigation process. When an allegation arises, the taskforce first interviews house members. Depending on the alle- gations, the taskforce then decides what action to take, Bach said. ALCOHOL Continued from page 1A Vice President for Student Affairs E. Royster Harper said the investiga- tions of hazing were efforts to pro- tect pledges. "We're going to be very aggressive to prevent people from being killed," she said. Studies show that alcohol is not only a problem in the fraternities and sororities. Statistics gathered from the Student Life Surveys adminis- tered every two years show a trend of increasing binge drinking among all University students. Binge drinking is defined as four alcoholic drinks or more in one sitting for a woman and five or more for a man. In 1999, 54 percent of students report- ed that they either abstained from alcohol or did not binge drink. Only 18 percent reported being frequent binge drinkers. Since then, the numbers for frequent binge drinkers have risen while the numbers of abstainers have dropped - 25 percent now report they binge drink frequently in 2003, while only 48 percent reported abstaining or not binge drinking. "The trend is not in a good direction," Peterson said. She added that the numbers do not match up with national averages. "When you compare our numbers to the national average, you'll find the number of abstainers is shrinking - at one point we were below the national average (of frequent binge drinkers) and now we're above it." The national average for college students in 2001 (the latest available data) shows that less than 23 percent frequently binge drink. Eklund agreed that drinking behaviors have changed. "The vol- ume has changed so people are now routinely drinking high amounts," she said. BASEBALL Continued from page 1A fourth. Lowe, pitching on just two days' rest, silenced the Yankees' bats and their boast- ing fans, who just last weekend assumed New York's seventh pennant in nine years was all but a lock. He allowed one hit in six innings. Pedro Martinez started the seventh, his first relief appearance in five years, and immediately sparked chants of the now famous "Who's Your Daddy?" Three hits and two runs got the crowd going, but the rally stopped there and Mark Bellhorn added a solo homer in the eighth for a 9-3 Boston lead. Cheering from Red Sox fans could be heard in the ninth, and when pinch-hitter Ruben Sierra grounded to second base- man Pokey Reese for the final out, Bos- ton players ran onto the field and jumped together in a mass huddle. "The greatest comeback in baseball history," Red Sox owner John Henry said. Yankees players slowly walked off, eliminated on their home field for the sec- ond straight season. "They had a lot of heart. They never gave up," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. "That team never dies. I give them a lot of credit." The World Series will start at Fenway Park on Saturday night against St. Louis or Houston. There were several hundred Red Sox fans behind their dugout on the third-base side, cheering wildly as Boston players gave one another bear hugs. Trot Nixon ran out to the center-field bleachers to greet friends, then shook hands with more along the right-field line. Now that the Babe's team has been beaten, Boston can try to reverse The Curse, win the Series for the first time since 1918 and bring happiness to the Hub, which 'can scarcely believe the tumultuous turn of events. From Fenway Park to Faneuil Hall, from Boston Common to Beacon Hill, the 11th pennant for the Red Sox, the first since 1986, will be remembered as the best for one reason: beating New York in Yankee Stadium, site of last year's Game 7 meltdown. This was for Williams and Pesky, for Yastrzemski and Yawkey, for Fisk and Rice and even Buckner and Nomar, just a few of the hundreds who suffered the pain inflicted by their New York neighbors in a rivalry that has become baseball's best. None of the previous 25 major league teams to fall behind 3-0 even forced a series to seven games. The wild-card Red Sox became only the third of 239 teams in the four major North American leagues to overcome a 3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven series and win, joining the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs and the 1975 New York Islanders. It had been 100 years since Boston last won a pennant in New York on the final possible day, a 3-2 victory in a double- header opener at Hilltop Park in 1904. New York overcame the Red Sox by winning the final two games of the 1949 season at Yankee Stadium, the Yankees won a one-game playoff for the AL East in 1978 behind Bucky Dent's three-run homer at Fenway Park, and Aaron Boone hit the lth-inning homer that won Game 7 last year. New York, which dropped to 10-2 in the LCS, will no doubt face a bitter win- ter, with owner George Steinbrenner like- ly to take charge of overhauling a roster that has been short of starting pitching since the spring. Brown and Vazquez, who faded in the second half of the season, were booed by the sellout crowd of 56,129, accustomed to perpetual success from their pinstriped heroes. The Yankees won the AL East for the seventh straight year, and the Red Sox were runners-up each time. The Yankees had a 4-3 lead in the ninth inning of Game 4 on Sunday night, only to have Bill Mueller single home the tying run off Mariano Rivera and Ortiz hit a 12th-inning homer against Paul Quant- rill. They held a 4-2 lead in the eighth inning of Game 5 before Ortiz's homer off Tom Gordon and Jason Varitek's sac- rifice fly off Rivera, and Ortiz's winning single off Esteban Loaiza in the 14th. Then Curt Schilling, his right ankle held together by three sutures, beat the Yankees 4-2 Tuesday night to tie the series 3-all. The Yankees invoked all the bad memories they could for Boston before the game: Dent threw out the ceremonial first pitch to Yogi Berra, and Reggie Jack- son stood behind the cage during batting practice. Just like last year, when the Red Sox went ahead 4-0 in the fourth inning of Game 7, Boston took an early lead. Damon, who entered the game 3-for- 29 (.103), singled past Alex Rodriguez at third base leading off and stole sec- ond. Manny Ramirez then grounded a single past Jeter at shortstop. Damon, who had to hold up to make sure the ball went into the outfield, was thrown out when left fielder Hideki Matsui relayed the ball to Jeter, who threw a strike to Jorge Posada, with the catcher blocking Damon at the plate. That was the highlight for the Yankees. Ortiz, who had three homers and 11 RBIs in the series, sent the next pitch into the right-field seats to put Boston ahead 2-0. the michigan daily RENT ME I'M A GREAT HOUSE!
