i·e Hager and Robert Stutma11 debate in the SUB 011 campus Wednesday. 71ze debate centered around the movement to \zlize marijuana and it\ effects on i11dividuals and society.

EA Agent, High Times Editor debate legalization of marijuana Eric Rundquist

Oxpooent Writer

In the UB ballroom <lnes<la) night. ASJ\1 U ·ely Arrs presenred zeman with one of the mosr led debares in America. ve Hager. ediwr in chief of gh Times Magazine and be rr M . rurman. 25-year eran of rhc DEA argued the rs and emotions behind de­minalizing Marijuana. For his opening argument,

iger gave five straigh rfor-1rd reasons why cannabis ould be legal for recre­onal and medical use. The first reason he gave was

e medical' alue of marijuana. 'here are more diseases for iich man1uana is a medicine an any other subsrance under e un, " he said. \X'hile mari­ana in a non-smoking form is erally harmles . argued

11ger. anti-<lep.ressants and :her drugs \\'Ith se\'eral nega-1e side effects are O\'er pre­ribed across the nation.

'>econdly, said Hager. "hemp ;.:ooJ for the em·ironment. ·· It in be used to make se\·eral roducrs that are commonly ade from more harmful chemi­tJ, !'or example, he seated.iris •ur times as efficient as paper. Hemp is a renewable, nontoxic

resource," and il can be made \\'ithout THC.

''Ha\'ing the world' biggest prison system is not the hallmark of a free society," said the maga­zine ediwr as his third reason for legalization. "Going lO prison in America is a lot worse than smok­ing a joinr. .. Prison destroys people, it creates criminals. We have to stop thinking that [impris­onment] is any type of a solution."

The corruption caused by the sale of illegal drugs is Hager 's forth reas0n for decriminaliza­tion. "500 billion dollars per year buys a lot of corruption," he said, concerned that profit from illegal marijuana sales increases the power drug cartels have over the government.

Finally, Hager said, "Mari­juana is part of my culture " H e went on to describe how he dis­covered the drug as a spiritual enhancement in the American counter culture. ow cannabis has become a religious issue for Hager and many other marijuana enthusiasts. "We are tremen­dously persecuted because of our belief in the spiriruality of this plant," he sa id.

Robert Sturman used his fifreen -minure opening state­ment to counter the informa­tion given by Hager, which had been obviously strongly sup­ported b) the audience.

He began by declaring his

moderation on the issue, winning some much-needed respect from the crowd. Srutman does not favor man) a peers of the total illegality of marijuana in America, and ac­tually seemed to think that the way sociery deals with the drug prob­lem is much too strict. "I don't think anybody should be thrown in jail for using any drug," he said, " that's stupid public policy."

Sturman was concerned. however, char Hager was mak­ing his "emo rional opinion sound like fact."

For example, while he agrees that canabaloids have health ben­efits, he said, "smoking marijuana will never be good medicine. " The

drug has been proven to be harmful to the lungs and cause signs of developing cancer.

As for Hager's religious ar­gument, Srutman related mari­juana lO polygamy, saying nei­rher is okay in rhe name of religion . He also questioned the religiousness of the drug. "Passing around a drug and gerting stoned is nor a religious ceremony," he argued.

The use of marijuana for its medical values musr go through the FDA and rhe scientific pro­cess that is used to allow any

Morrison takes action against insurance credit scoring K])pec1al to the Exponent

Sratc. t\udnor .John \lorrison filed an adminisrram·c action Tues­da) again,r Farmers \lliance .\lu tual Insur.ince tor ,tl!eged \·ioLuiom of the b\\' inrnking credit scoring.

,\lorri><m allq:cs that farmers Alliant'<-' failed to pr0\1Je a &zem<m consumer \1·ith specific reasons for increasing her m'unmcc premiwns atter she had submined a request to the compan: in writinj?.

"Credit scoring is a consumer issue oi national concern, but 1\lon­tana la\\' allows for its use," said ,\1orrison, .\loncana 's Insurance Commissioner. "If companies are going to use it, consumers ha\·e the right to know ho\\ it is being used and how it affects their premimns."

Jlie \1·oman referenced in the adminstrat1\·e acuon. a professor at \lontana Stare Uni1·ersity, re­cei\·ed a large automobile insur­ance rate increase. She \\'as di­rected b) her insurer. farmers

Alliance. to look ar her credir rar­ing and credit score as porenrial causes for the rate increase.

A credit score is a number in­surance companies assign con­sumers based on credit expen­ence, \\ hich includes rhe number and types of credit cards used. the number of out-

msurers. reported significantly different credit scores for the con­sumer and her husband. The woman's credit score \\'as 188 poims lo\\'er than her husband's.

In its notice of proposed

Penney's card her husband does not have and he carries a gas company credit card she does nor have.

Choice Point provided the woman with a general explanation of items that affect credit scores,

including the follo\\'ing: Consum­ers who use retail accounts to buy merchandise have more insurance losses. Retail accounts include dothing stores, jewelers, furniwre, mail order and variety stores such as J.C. Penney's and Sears. This would also include consumers who ha\·e established accounts with oil companies have better loss experience. This indudes cards is­sued by gas/ service stations such as Texaco. BP, etc.

The woman's lower score in 2002 apparently adversely affected her insurance premiums. Despite her written request, Farmers Alli­ance failed to provide the woman with any explanation for the rate increase as required by law.

To date, there has been no ex­planation for the differences in the individuals' scores and no explana­tion for what factors adversely af­fected the woman's rates. Provisions in Choice Point's general explanation

of credit scoring could lead a con­sun1er to believe that not having a gas card or having a deprutmenr store credit card could raise a consumer's insurance premiums. Alliance's fail­ure to provide a specific explanation for the rate incre-dSe does not allow a consumer to be certain what in1 pacts their prenuums.

"Insurance companies some­times adversely treat consumers based on the types of credit cards they carry," Morrison said. "It's im­portant for consumers to know the specific credit factors that nega­tively impact their credit score."

"My top priority is to protect Montana consumers," Morrison said. "My office will continue to in­vestigate and halt activities char are harmful or unfair to consumers."

Individuals with questions or concerns about an insurance company's use of credit scoring should contact the State Auditor's Office at 1-800-332-6148.

Iraqi people getting set free by American

involvement

Dear Editor, On the other side of propaganda

lies the truth Before this war, "'e watched overpaid analysts air their anri­Bush open tons on national television. The story has changed dra­marically.

For example. has anyone seen '60 mmutes' over the past few weeks? If you have, you were maybe surprised to see Iraqis shouting "down with Sadaam 1 " You may not have expected the Iraqi people to be welcomcng American soldiers (the ones whose work many of you protest). It may have caught some of you off guard to see Ira­qis singing and dancing in the streets after the American soldiers helped ropple Saddam's statue. Certainly many went into immediate shock when a group of I raqi youth began thanking P resident Bush. Ir may have confused some to see American soldiers setting free 150 children Hussein had imprisoned. Iraqi Yussuf Abed Kazim, a preacher at a local mosque, said, "l'm 49, but I never lived a single day. Only now wi ll I start living." lle helped smash Saddam's statue \\'ith a sledge hammer.

How is it tha t such things are be­ing broadcast on a normally liberal news srnrion? I'll tell you why, because this is reality' Only now have we begun to sec actual facts! Sadaam is responsible for o,·er 3,000,000 !rnqi casualties. Can one view Hitler's actions as C\'il while casu­Jl!y witnessing another holocaust)

The I raq1 people know suffering. I'll trust their opinion long before I'll pay attention to those play­cng dead on the sidewalks of our city. Our president supports the war. O'er 70% of the American people support the war. And, accord­ing to normally liberal telension. the Iraqi people abo support the war. Of course, why shouldn't they? They are being set free from almost three de­cades of a madman 's tyrannical at tempt at leadership. Micah Dalbey PO Box 440-t Bozeman, MT

All of these events are pretty hard on a person's body. "lr 's pretty grueling," says Erin.

A heptathlon is scored by a universal point system and the points for the evenrs o[ both days art a<lded together for a final score and standing.

Kansas falls to Syracuse in NCAA title game ])ssociated Press

This time, the final four sec­nds were something for Syra­se to celebrate.

Coach Jim Boeheim and the )rangemen hdd on for a 81-78 \'ic­r) over Kansas at the

uperdome, where the team en­ured one of the toughest losses i program history in 1987.

''I'm just glad \\'e won it for Der­ick (Coleman), Rony eikaly, herman Douglas, all those guys" on 1e '87 team, Boeheirn said. "Derrick ailed me on the court afterward. I ouldn't hear him because of the ratic, but I told him he was off the ook. Our kids had great heart. We 1layed the best first half we could play,

a 0 z E M A N

then we just hung on." The last time Boeheim was in a

title game in New Orleans, Keith Smart hit a basdine jumper with four seconds left to give Bobby Knight's Indiana Hoosiers a 7 4-73 victory. The shot came after Derrick Coleman missed the from end of a l -and-1 for Syracuse. When the final horn sounded Monday night, Boeheirn's trademark scowl turned into a wide grin. He raised his am1S in triumph, memories of 1987 behind him.

"Am I happy we won? ure. I'm not stupid," he said. "Bur I don't think about validation. I don't feel any smarter yet. Maybe tomorrow."

At the end of rhe game, Boeheirn walked over and shook hands with Jayhawks coach Roy \Xrtlliams, who lost his second title game in 12 years.

''I told hin1 the same thing Bob Knight told me in 1987,'' said Boeheim, whose Orangemen lost to

Kentucky in the 1996 title game. "You'll be back some day. There is no doubt in my mind that he will win a national championship."

Boeheim 's resume now is crammed with 653 victories, 22nd all­time, and his .742 winning percent­age is third among active Division I coaches. He's the longest-tenured coach at the same school, having coached the Orangemen for 27 years.

Nor bad for a walk-on who had to talk his way onto the team when he arrived at Syracuse in 1962 and was appointed head coach in 1976 with a first contract that paid him S28,000.

This may have been his best

coaching job. Older, wiserandmore mdlow "~th three young children at home to tire him out, Boeheim molded a team that started two fresh· men, t\\'O sophomores and one se­nior into a winner.

Even though the Orangernen started 11-1, Boeheirn tinkered "'~th his lineup and gave freshman guard Billy Ecldin playing time. He called that the hardest decision in his career because it meant the lone senior on the team, Kueth Duany, would lose minutes.

"We all went through a lot," Ecldiu said. "Everybody doubted us. It feels great to .come out on top."

Along with such talented players as freshmen Carmelo An­thony and Gerry Mc amara, Boeheim incorporated sopbo-

If Boeheim needed any vin­dication for using a 2-3 zone de­fense, it came in the final seconds against the J ayhawks.

chwarzeegger impersonations and funny little tid bits from his life experience . Boone was able to keep things going smoothly and give the audience a good chuckle here and there.

The music part of the talent show included a wide range of tal­ents and act . Many individuals performed original songs and other performed cover songs and

added a little of their 0\\11 style and personality. The music acts per­formed were on a \\ide arrangement of ll1Smm1ents. There was drumming, guitar pla)-ing, singing, piano pla) ing. clarinet and trombone pla)ing and even a little diclgeridoo in a rendition of Cake's single T riend is a Four Let­ter \'ford.'

The styles of music also varied. A little Di..xie Chicks, some Dave Matthews. Adam andler style 'Knocking on Heaven's Door,' songs about moles named Lester and even a cover of the Gummi Bear theme song were all apart of the show.

The comedy and art catego­ries were just as entertaining as the music. There were various types of dancing and comedy acts

Framing shor after shor with neon lights or adverrise­menrs around the characters gers the filmmakers' point across - we need to rake a step back from the conformiry of our world and see the falsiries and travesties we're commit­ting on a daily basis.

By also splirtin g the screen, routinely displaying picrure in picrure boxes and otherwise throwing images at us quickly, or even at rhe same rime, we're gi,en a sense of th e chaos in which we, and es­peciall1 Sru, lives.

In 'Phone Booth' he com­pletes a 180 degree rum from egomaniac publicist to loving husband, not ar all an easy rask, and makes ir look believable.

Ultimately, you could write rhis film off as norhing more than a tighr ps}chologi­cal thriller, or even a didactic moraliry p lay, but that doesn 'r do ir jusrice.
