Local man wins big on 'Jeopardy'

After a few days in Los Angeles, Rod Sanders wasn't humming to the tune of Weird Al Yankovic's "I Lost on Jeopardy!"
   That's because Sanders, a master control operator at KRIS 6 News almost went the maximum distance of five shows when he won four recent episodes in a row on "Jeopardy!"
   Sanders picked up a total of $31,400 over the four days.
   No wonder he called it "a fantastic experience" when he returned, before he was allowed to reveal the results to anyone. And now the $30,000-richer Sanders isn't returning calls, either because he A) can afford not to; B) is on a trip to Hawaii; or C) is busy counting and recounting his money.

   University Cinema will host a free screening (7:30 p.m. Friday in Corpus Christi Hall, Room 118), and festival director Barton Weiss will answer questions afterward.
