...problem has been the loss of junior Cheng Ho and sophomore Gino Gordon to injuries over the last couple of weeks. Gordon returned this week and received more carries for more success as the game wore on Saturday, including the game-sealing touchdown run.

But the emotion and media frenzy around his death, which Hofer compares to England's trauma over the passing of Princess Diana, has distracted people from Haider's far-right legacy. Haider's party will contest elections in the province of Carinthia next spring. Few observers doubt that the party will use Haider's face on campaign posters. And few doubt that, reports of the circumstances around his death notwithstanding, the party will...
