News brief
Edward Humes to deliver
Johnston Lecture
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist
Edward Humes will deliver the
2002 Johnston Lecture, “The Art of
Being There: Immersing Yourself in
the Story,” Thursday in the Alum
ni Lounge of Gerlinger Hall.
Humes received the Pulitzer
Prize for specialized reporting in
1989, rewarding his efforts in mili
tary newspaper writing. Humes’
military reporting included articles
on the execution of an army private
during World War II and a year-long
investigation of fatal military heli
copter crashes linked to flawed
night-vision devices.
Humes has published six books
including “Baby E.R.,” a November
2000 medical thriller set in a neona
tal intensive care unit, “ Mean Jus
tice: A Town’s Terror, a Prosecutor’s
Power, a Betrayal of Innocence,”
published in 1999 and named best
book of the year by the Los Angeles
Times, and “No Matter How Loud I
Shout: A Year in the Life of Juvenile
Court, ” named best book of the year
by the Investigative Reporters and
Editors of America.
After delivering the Johnston
Lecture, Humes will spend two
days at the University teaching a
“Writing About ...” workshop in
the University’s literary nonfiction
graduate program. The 2002 John
ston Lecture is free to the public
and begins at 4 p.m. Thursday.

Ballot
continued from page 1
Ward 6 candidate Frank Wiley
also gathered signatures before the
city approved his petition form. In
stead of turning in his petition ear
ly, as the other five candidates had
done, he completed his paperwork
and sought new signatures.
When the city discovered that five
of Wiley’s signatures were invalid,
his candidacy was temporarily de
nied. But on March 28, county elec
tions officials, citing advice from the
city, placed Wiley on the ballot.
“Wiley had collected signatures
the same way as others on the bal
lot, but he had received conflicted
information,” county elections offi
cial Annette Newingham said. “He
was playing by the rules as he
thought they were.”
City attorney spokesman Jerry
Lidz said his staff is looking into
i the legality of these decisions but

KELLY
STEWART
City primary election
Incumbent David Kelly and
University student Maco Stewart
are competing for the Ward 3 city
council seat, which represents
the University area.
Ballots will be mailed May 3
and are due May 21.
“The effort was to make sure no
body suffered as a result oflncon
sistent advice,” he said.
Claiming that the candidates were
given unfairly favorable treatment,
Hale wrote a complaint to the secre
tary of state’s office asking the agency
to remove the five names from the
ballot. The agency’s elections divi
sion is still investigating the ballot
but wdl probably not intervene be
cause the election is So near and be*
cause election officials are uncertain
the controversy, Lindback said.
Dissatisfied with the state’s re
sponse, Hale said he is considering
taking the issue to court.
“We ought to have one standard,
not more than one,” he said.
Whether or not Hale files a law
suit, the city will revise its election
' filing rules in coming months to
“make very sure this does not hap
i pen again next year,” Lidz said.
