2T The Des Moines Register Friday, February 28, 1997 Howlett 4a steady voice' in sports Sexual assault 'doesn't get enough attention' H0WLETT Dear Ann: Here are some facts about sexual assault put out by the American Medical Association. The problem doesn't get the attention it deserves. Chicago She worked in the men's department, not the women's. Her connections to the Des Moines community were valuable in drumming up support for the teams. Her connection to Drake wasn't always so clear.

"The first few years, it was an interesting experience because everywhere I went, everybody thought I was somebody's wife," she said. "It took awhile before people began to understand I really did work." Howlett found more than a career at Drake. In 1977, she married Ron Royer, who was an assistant football PA Ann says: Thank you for some vital statistics from a reliable source. Here are the facts: Sexual assault continues to represent the most rapidly growing violent crime in America. More than 700,000 women In addition to her work at the Ten, Howlett has served on nearly every committee of the NCAA.

Sljf was the original chairwoman of thfc committee on women's athletic she's been on policy committees; executive committees, sport commit tees. She was co-chair of the gendet equity task force. "It gives you energy; this is goof stuff," Howlett said. "The cause is important that you just get energized by it. "When you think of my spectrum 1954 to now how much it's changed, it's just night and dajj Howlett noted.

"That is, without tion, the neatest part of all of this." Lopiano agreed that the ties now available to female athletes will be part of Howlett's legacy. "She can retire and be satisfies with how she left women's Lopiano said. "It's about to explodj and that's the result of her work." Howlett won't miss the travel pafj of her job. One week, she was in Atlanta on Tuesday, Indianapolis on Wednesday, Des Moines on Fridajj Prior to that she had been in Ne Bssidsshsrwerkstthg Big Ten, Howlett has served on nearly every NCAA committee. Ann Landers Continued from Page IT feminism or the role of women in sports had never been a big cause of hers.

"I wasn't opinionated one way or another," she said of her feelings then. "Itwasntpartof my experience. I had pretty much done what I wanted to do." She said that until her husband's death, she had never understood prejudice against women. "Then I began to understand that people looked at me as if I were inept because of my gender." It was during a meeting with Iowa legislators that she got her first rude awakening. She was there as chairwoman of the Iowa Commission on the Status of Women.

The topic was taxes. "One of the legislators turned to me and said, 'Well, you wouldn't know anything about that; you're a womaa' That just did It," she said. "I said, 'Who do you think pays the bills at my house? Who do you think pays the taxes? Who do you think owns the property at my If there was one thing that activated me, that was it In order to comply with the new federal law, Drake created a women's sports department. The Howletts had been fans and friends of the program and staff. She applied to be Drake's first women's athletic director.

She didn't get the job, but soon after that, then-athletic director Bob Karnes was in search of an assistant In what was likely a bold move at the time, Kames hired Howlett. assaults occurred on dates. Seventy-three percent of the assailants and 55 percent of the victims had used alcohol or other drugs prior to the assault Forty-two percent of the victims told no one. In a survey of high school students, 56 percent of the girls and 76 percent of the boys believed forced sex was acceptable under some circumstances. A survey of 11- to 14-year-olds found: Fifty-one percent of the boys and 41 percent of the girls said forced sex was acceptable if the boy "spent a lot Thirty-one percent of the boys and 32 percent of the girls said it was acceptable for a man to rape a woman if she had past sexual experience.

In a survey of male college students, 35 percent anonymously admitted that, under certain circumstances, they would commit rape if they believed they could get away with It. In another survey of college males, 43 percent of college-aged men admitted to using coercive behavior to have sex. Ann says: It is clear to me that we must do a better job of sex education at home. We must teach our children to respect one another. This is the parents' responsibility.

Creators Syndicate are sexually assaulted each year. Only 20 percent of sexual assaults against women are perpetrated by males unknown to the victim. The remainder are committed by friends, acquaintances, intimates and family members. Among female rape victims, 6 percent are under age 18. At least 20 percent of adult women and 12 per-cent of adolescent women have experienced some sort of sexual abuse or assault during their lifetimes.

A survey of 6,159 college students enrolled at 32 institutions in the United States revealed the following statistics: More than one in four college-aged women surveyed had been the victim of rape or attempted rape. Fifty-seven percent of the coach at the school. The next year, they moved when Howlett took a job as assistant athletic director at the University of Kansas in Lawrence. She was in charge of all sports but football and basketball; male and female coaches reported to her. Three years later, the Big Ten Conference added an assistant commissioner position in order to help assimilate women's sports into the league.

That was part of Howlett's responsibility when she made the move to one of the nation's most prominent athletic conferences, but she still worked with men's sports. Howlett became active in the NCAA, the governing body of nearly "My husband will have a wife again, "says Howlett of her coming retirement. all of collegiate athletics. She was one of two women to serve on the organization's football-television committee, a powerful committee at the time. With just one "Game of the Week," the group controlled the media, revenue and exposure of every major college football program in the country.

In 1985, however, the Supreme Court decided that was a monopoly, and the face of Saturday football on TV changed. Still, her stint on the committee was the quintessential experience of dealing with football, the domain of the good old boys, the area that is always the knock against women administrators because they didn't coach it and they didn't play itHowlett, the football coach's daughter, helped control it. Dealing with football with men's athletics gave Howlett a different perspective in the always contentious debate about gender equity. Proponents for women's athletics want equality of opportunity for participation; fans, coaches and administrators of men's sports don't want it coming at a cost to things they hold dear. Often it has come at a price, with athletic departments dropping men's sports in order to comply with the federal law.

It's not the most creative solution, but it is the most common and it has created a great amount of ill will between the two sides. Treading that in-between area is Howlett "Sometimes there's a mentality that you have to be one thing or the other fish or fowl. You can't be someplace in between," she said. "Because I worked in men's athletics and understood their situation and problems didn't mean I was insensitive to the women." It's Howlett's way. Ranting, raving and politicizing hasn't been her style.

She'd rather quietly hear all sides and work the back rooms at conventions. In the meantime, women's athletics became a cause for Howlett. It's the pride of her professional career. Her approach is nearly the opposite of vocal women's sports advocates like Donna Lopiano, the executive director of the Women's Sports Foundation. "She's a steady head, a rational, disciplined thinker," Lopiano said.

"Phyllis was always the steady voice." That doesn't mean Howlett's intention was any different, she stressed. "Donna and I are on the same team. Our approach is different my volume isn't quite as loud," Howlett said. "We need Donna; I'm a strong supporter, and she's a good friend. But we need me, too." Oscar nominee Web sites aren't too sophisticated WEB York, Dallas and Nashville.

She's bae in Indianapolis this weekend for tfcf Big Ten women's basketball tournament, That kind of city-hopping will end Although Howlett and her husbarijf live in the Chicago area, they have land in New Mexico that they plan ty develop. "My husband will have a wife agaiij actually for the first time in our mat ried life," she said. "I've got a houjie full of books to read, I've got a worii) full of people that need hugs haven't had time to give, recipes to cook, people to see. "I've never been one-dimensionait and I'm not going to start now." So while Howlett can't tell young people to take her career path, sh does challenge them to be welt rounded. "What I tell young people is experience as much as you can because it'i going to make you a better person she said.

There are links on this site that send you to Fantasy Records, where you can hear a bit of the music that's nominated for Best Original Dramatic Score, or shuffle off to Random House, to read excerpts from Michael Ondaatje's Booker-winning novel upon which the film was based. "Shine." This site is less about the movie than it is about the movie's subject, piano-player David Helfgott. There's a lot of information here about the life and music of Helfgott.

In fact, if your Web-browser is equipped with Shockwave, you can hear the music on every page on the movie's Web site. Plus, you can download samples of "Rach 3" and win tickets to a Helfgott concert. An added doodad on the "Shine" site is a downloadable study guide for high school and college students. "Fargo." We wanted this site to win, just because we like the movie better than the others. But it just isn't very good.

Basically, they just dumped press-releases into it: Production notes, bios on the cast and crew, a plot synopsis, pictures, then you're outta there. There is a good unofficial "Fargo" site, however, called the Hammer "Fargo" Site. This fan-generated Web stop is more feature-packed, with stuff like an interview with the filmmakers, the Coen Brothers, and, even better, downloadable sounds from the movie. And the winner is: "Jerry Maguire." Why is this one the best? Because Sony threw money at it, that's why. This is the only major- studio nominee in the field and, while it's nowhere near the best movie site you'll see, it's pretty easily the best one in this field.

It's loaded, of course, with the usual stills, videos and dope on cast 'n' crew. It, too, has downloadable sounds, including "Show me the money," the "Where's the Beer winner for the most over-used pop-culture phrase of the year. And, there's lots more: A mountain of love stuff, including Cosmo-style romance quizzes and polls, a Magic Heart that, like its cousin the Magic 8-Ball, answers yes-or-no questions, e-mailable romantic postcards and great love letters, to which you can add your own. More: A "Jerry Maguire" screensaver, potentially funny Mad-Libs and soundtrack samples from Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan and Aimee Mann. Continuedfrom Page IT Site selection, and I'm willing.

First, therunners-up. "Secrets and Lies." It's French. How much fun could it be? Basically, with the "Secrets and Lies" site, all you get is four pages of synopsis of the movie's plot: What it needs is a helicopter wreck. The only extras this Bite has are a few downloadable Quicktime videos from the movie. "The English Patient." Well, no helicopter wrecks, but you get a World War tossed in among the kissy "stuff.

This is the most-nominated film this year (12), but it's not getting an Oscar in Websville. You can download movie's trailer and a couple of TV spots, plus a dozen stills from the film, That they can follow. 1 Hot Line 1-900-773-6000 (95c per minute) Time, temperature and weather forecasts lor 468 cities worldwide are available by i dialing the number, pressing the number 1 then punching in the area code or the first three letters of a foreign city.
