Two men who were in UK cor-
nerback Ted Presley‘s room
when he was fatally shot Thurs-
day morning left the scene and
waited about 15 minutes before

 

By Tyrone Beason
News Editor

 

About 50 friends and acquain-
tances of UK walk-on football
player Ted Presley gathered last
night to remember the life of
what one speaker called a
“bright. shining black prince."

Jerry Stevens, director of oper-
ations for the Office of Minority
Affairs, said that Presley‘s death
Friday of a gunshot wound is a
cause not only for mourning, but
for celebration.

“We must carry on." he
told the somber crowd.

Stevens led a list of guests in-
vited to speak on Presley‘s be-
half at Worsham Theater.
Among them were Aaron
Hughes. hall director at Bland-
ing II where the shooting inci-
dent occurred; the Rev. C.B.
Akins. pastor of the church that
Presley attended and UK foot-
ball coach Bill Curry.

(Turry’s speech evoked images
of a Ted Presley dedicated to ex-
cellence in every aspect of life,

yesterday.

UK spokesman Ralph Derickson
said Jeffrey Mitchell. a 21-year-old
UK student from Louisville, Ky.,
and Jason Smith, Presley's room-
mate and lifelong friend, both left
Presley’s room in Blanding II resi-
dence hall soon after he was shot in

particularly academics.

And as an athlete. Curry said,
Presley constantly pushed himself
to the physical limit, not once com-
plaining about the hard work.

"The rest of the team was a little
bit ahead of him. but he would not
concede to that," Curry said. “Most
people. when the pain begins.
we backed off to protect ourselves.
A very few courageous people,
when the pain begins. they pour it
on. Ted was one of those.

“He won the respect of every-
body and very seldom said a word.
I wish I had known him better, but
he just didn't say much.“

Curry said that on the final day of
football practice before the shoot-
ing. Presley was “more admired and
respected than a lot of the men that
you see play Saturday afternoons."

Everyone who spoke at the me-
morial service said Presley's death
represents something much more
than an evitable human tragedy; it
provides individuals who otherwise
might never know each other an op-
ponunity to connect spiritually.

“This is what I call the fellowship

caliber bullet.

The two men then went to Hag-
gin Hall, where Smith placed an
emergency call to UK Police at
12:50 am. Derickson said. Police
do not know which Haggin phone
Smith used.

After the call, Mitchell and Smith

 

met UK police at the scene of the
shooting, 113 Blanding II.

Derickson said police estimate 15
minutes elapsed between the time
Presley allegedly shot himself and
the time the call was made.

night, said Mitchell and Smith left

men left, one UK police officer ar-
rived. she said, and five to six more

Former lobbyist says he often gave money to Blandford

 

By Charles Wolfe
Associated Press

 

FRANKFURT, Ky. — The man
who allegedly paid three bribes to
Don Blandford said yesterday he
often gave money to the former
IIouse speaker.

It was money for meals or just for
spending. and there were no strings
attached, former lobbyist William
McBee testified.

In 1986, when the two longtime
friends attended a Jockeys‘ Guild
convention in Las Vegas, McBee
said he handed Blandford $200. “I

just told him to take it and have a
good time," he said.

McBee spent 19 years with
Blandford in the Kentucky House.
becoming a lobbyist after losing a
re-election race in 1990. Now he is
a government wimess in Bland-
ford‘s trial on charges of racketeer-
ing, extortion. conspiracy and lying
to the FBI.

The government claims McBee
paid Blandford three $500 bribes
during the 1992 General Assembly.
The money allegedly was to ensure
that a horse-racing bill contained no
“breed-to-breed" restriction that
would have barred harness tracks

from conducting wagering on tele-
vised thoroughbred races.

McBee said he made the first
payment during a January 1992
weekend junket to Fort Lauderdale.
Fla.

The second and third payments
were captured on tape by the FBI
during dinners in the hotel suite of
lobbyist Jay Spunier, who secretly
was cooperating with the FBI after
being caught paying a bribe.

During jury selection last week,
defense attorney Morton Holbrook
of Owensboro conceded there
would be evidence that Blandford
received money from McBee. But

MOSCOW — A new round in
Russia‘s power struggle began
yesterday as Boris Yeltsin's team
claimed “massive support“ from a
weekend referendum while his
opponents said the vote had hurt
the country.

Preliminary official results and
exit polls showed that a majority
of voters in Sunday‘s referendum
gave the 62-year—old Russian
president a vote of confidence and

reforms.

But hard-liners pointed to the
fact that only about 35 percent of
Russia's 105.5 million eligible
voters actually expressed confi-
dence in Yeltsin. with the rest vot-
ing against him or staying away
from the polls.

“In less than two years after
Yeltsin was elected president of
Russia, millions of his former
supporters deny him support.“
said a statement by the All-
People's Union of Russia, headed

by hard-line lawmaker Sergei
Baburin.

Yeltsin made no public appear-
ances yesterday and spent the
day with aides analyzing the re-
sults, his press office said.

But presidential spokesman
Vyacheslav Kostikov issued a
victory statement saying the re-
sults showed that Russia was ral-
lying around Yeltsin and his re-
forms.

Committee names two

 

By Tammy Gay
Senior Staff Writer

 

The search committee for a jour-
nalism school director yesterday
gave the names of two acceptable
candidates for the posldm to the
dean of the College of Cornmunica-
tions.

The new director will be chosen
within the next couple of weeks, of-
ficials said.

Roy Moore. one cmdidate named
by the committee, has been an asso-
ciate professor at UK since 1987
and director of graduate studies in

the College of Communications
since 1988.

Chuck Stone, the other candidate
named by the committee. is a pm-
fessor at the School of Joumalism
and Mass Communication at the
University of North Carolina-
Chapel Hill.

“What we want to do is to select
a candidate who will have a signifi-
cant. positive impact on the journal-
ism program and. therefore. an irn-
pact on (joranaliam students)" said
Douglas A. Boyd, dean of the Col-
lege of Comunications.

Smwillretumtocanpuslater

Blandford denies promising or do-
ing anything for money.

The defense‘s questioning of
McBee seemed intended to show
that he had given money to Bland-
ford for years. so any payments in
1992 would not have been unusual.

Blandford said yesterday he
planned to testify. Outside the
courthouse, he also said he did not
think it illegal to take money from a
lobbyist “unless you‘re in agree-
ment to do something for it.

“I think it was pointed out this
morning. I did not I wasn‘t asked
to do anything. I did not agree to do
anything, and I didn‘t do anything.

So. what‘s wrong with it?"
Blandford said.

He was referring to McBee‘s tes-
timony that there was no mention of
the racing bill or breed-to-breed
legislation during the payment in
Florida.

The FBI‘s recording of the sec-
ond payment, on Feb. 20. 1992,
picked up a fleeting reference by
McBee to “a little something fmm
Mr. Spurrier and me and the har-
ness horse people.“

In making the third payment,
which the FBI captured on video-
tape March 11. McBee told Bland-
ford that Gov. Brereton Jones‘ staff

was “taking care of“ the horse-
racing bill.

Blandford‘s other attomey. Allen
Holbrook. seized on the conversa-
tions.

“You didn’t ask Mr. Blandford to
do anything to help defeat passage
of any breed-to-breed legislation.
did you?" Holbrook said.

“No. sir." McBee replied.

“And Mr. Blandford never did
anything to help defeat passage of
breed-to—breed legislation. did he?"
Holbrook said.

“Not that I know of."
said.

Kevin Michael Gibson pleaded
not guilty yesterday to charges that
he took his ex-girlfriend hostage at
a campus medical facility last

Gibson. 32. of 1711 Arcadia

By Greg Labor

For fiction readers across the
country, the name Stephen King is
synonymous with terror.

Since he broke onto the literary
scene with his first novel. “Carrie."
King has been one of the most pro-
lific writers around. What's more.
his name guarantees a best-seller.

In the film world, however, King
is anything but a sure bet. His
works rarely make the transition
from print to screen gracefully.

In fact. King was so appalled by
recent attempts like “The Lawn-
mower Man“ that he filed success-
ful lawsuits to keep his name off

them.

The simple fact is, there‘s no es-
caping the man. Naturally. he can
be found in book stores every-
where. And it seems like there‘s a
new movie adaptation every three
months.

Three months later. they‘re in the
video stores. Now. he‘s lurking in
your television with the up~coming
mini-series "Tommyknockers."

With this much King to choose
from, his editors are afraid the pub-
lic may become oversaturated. At
one point. this fear became so acute
that they told him to stop writing all
together. Unable to take a break,
King continued writing novels un-
der the name of Richard Bachman.

It was the experience of being
Richard Bachman that inspired
King‘s 1989 best-seller “The Dark
Half." Now, two full years after its
completion, George Romero’s ad-
aptation has finally hit theaters eve-

Once upon a time waaaay
back in the 19805 there was a
band called Ratt, which released
six albums and an EP, all con-
taining music that was heavy
enough for metal fans, and yet
sweet enough to grab the ears
and interests of popular radio
and MTV.

With LPs like Out of the Cel-
lar and Invasion of Your Privacy.
and singles like “Round and
Round“ and “Lay It Down" Ratt
managed to pave the way for
such musical geniuses as Poison.
Bon Jovi and Warrant.

Then, in 1991. after releasing a
greatest hits compilation, vocal-
ist Stephen Pearcy decided that
after a decade he was tired of

 

Pearcy’s lame lyrics

concerning sex and partying for
the purpose of selling records
and earning air time.

So he formed Arcade and fi-

ingless rock tunes concerning
sex and partying that he didn't
get out of his system earlier in
his career.

Pearcy hasn’t strayed far from
his former musical ventures. giv-
ing us basically Ratt Part II, al-
though with crappier songs.

Arcade even features three
Iovey-dovey ballads — a sin
even Ratt never brought itself to
commit. A couple of the songs,
like “Nothin’ to Lose" and
“Never Goin‘ Home," bring
back a nostalgic sense of music

rywhere.

The plot, like many of King‘s
works, is highly autobiographical. It
deals with Thad Beaumont, an Eng-
lish teacher who dabbles in writing.

To help pay the bills, Beaumont,
played by Timothy Hutton. begins

 

writing trashy crime novels under
the name of George Stark.

The public loves Stark‘s grisly
works, and he quickly becomes a
celebrity despite the fact he does
not actually exist. Unfortunately,
Beaumont‘s double life comes to an
end when a fan figures out his se-
cret and threatens to go public.

Rather titan succumb to the
blackmailer, Beaumont decides to
publicly end his career as Stark. He
and his wife, played by Amy Madi-
gan, soon find themselves posing
for pictures beside Stark‘s imagi-
nary grave.

But the macabre fun ends when it
appears that Stark somehow has
come to life. Suddenly, the people
involved in ending his career start
dropping dead left and right. and
Beaumont is the most logical sus-
pect.

Romero’s script is very respectful
of its source. Only a few minor

casting changes are made. Among
them was the decision to let Hutton
play both Beaumont and Stark.

The effect is eerie. Hutton does a
marvelous job in the dual role. As
the writer, he seems bright and
sympathetic. But every so often, he
allows us glimpses at the temper
from which Stark is born.

It is his performance as Stark,
however, that is most astonishing.
Under heavy makeup, Hutton con-
veys a pure menace coupled with
devilish wit.

The supporting cast also is im-
pressive. Amy Madigan makes a
very believable wife without falling
into any of the pitfalls that snare
most females in King movies.

Early on, the movie is filled with
promise. The issues it raises about
the source of creativity and an art-
ist’s struggle with the public are
very intriguing. Romero does an ex-
cellent job of focusing his attention
on these themes rather than dwell-

ing on the gory death scenes de-
scribed in the novel.

Unfortunately, the movie falls
apart in exactly the same spot as
the book did. Unable to adequate-
ly explain Stark‘s appearance,
King resorts to a typical slasher
film ending with a little hocus-
pocus smoke cloud for good
measure. Romero, it seems, was
unable to improve upon the
book's weak ending.

As King movies go, “Dark
Half“ is above average. It is well-
acted and quick~paced with
enough action to keep fans satis-
fied. Its lack-luster resolution,
however, will keep “Dark Half"
from joining the ranks of “The
Shining,“ “Carrie“ and “Misery”
as the best King adaptations.

“The Dark Half, " rated R. is

it doesn’ t mean this isn‘ tone of the
most bizarrely entertaining bands
since Alice Cooper.

On the group’s second Capitol
release, Independent Worm Saloon,
ringmaster Gibby Haynes and
friends will give you a taste of Son-
ic Youth-like distortion. long, acid-
psychedelia jams and plain ol‘ rock
music.

The first single, “Who Was In
My Room Last Night?," combines
a chunky guitar riff with Haynes'
static-ridden voice, which only
builds on the song’s paranoia.

“Goofy‘s Concern" follows the
same formula —- with similarly ex-
cellent results, except this time,
Haynes sounds like he’s singing
through a bullhom. Oh, the won-
ders of modern technology.
“Alcohol“ is so gleefully warped
that you have to assume the Surfers
were on something a lot stronger
titan Mad Dog 20/20 when they re-
corded it. It sways and twists. like
you're on a rollercoaster and your
lunch decides to come back up to
take a bow.

Strangest of all is “The Wooden
Song," which is strange precisely
because it isn't. It’s gentle, largely
acoustic. kind of wistful, and is one
of the few songs on the album
when Haynes doesn‘t use any kind
of distortion on his voice. It turns
out he's a pretty decent crooner
when he isn't mixing his voice to
sound like an auto accident.

Independent Worm Saloon was
produced by John Paul Jones, who
was the bass player in that loud. ob-
noxious band way back when
called er ah what was its
name?? Lead something-or-
other?

For all of you classic rock fans
weeping bitter tears at your hero‘s
pathetic fall from glory. let me re-
peat myself: John Paul Jones, bas-
sist for the legendary '705 rock
band Led Zeppelin, is producing
the Butthole Surfers, a garbage-
rock band that has no compunc-
tions about including vomit sounds
in its songs.

John Paul Jones —— of all people!
That’s hilarious, man. That's enter-

After sweeping three straight
games from the Florida Gators last

Butler also mentioned the criteria
he uses for playing winning base-
ball. He said that there are three cat-
egories you must do well in to com-
pete: Defense, pitching and hitting.

“Usually, if you can get two out
of the three, you’ve got a good
chance to win," Butler explained.
