Weaver’s platform built on long-term plans

This is the first in a two-part se-
ries about the platforms of the SGA
prestdential candidates. This story
looks (It the platform of Cyndi Weav-
er.

By JAY BLANTUN
News Editor

(‘yndi Weaver thinks her platform
for SGA president is both innovative
and progressive.

These qualities. she believes, typ~
ify her approach to the Student Gov-
ernment Association and UK in gen-
eral

Most importantly. it is these qual»
tiles that Weaver. SGA arts and sci-
ences senator. says are especially
needed now at UK s at a time when
the l'nivei'sity is about to experience
great transition

With the addition of a new Univer-
sity president. David P. Roselle. and

 

vice chancellor for student affairs.
James Kuder, Weaver said “it is
very important to have assertive
leadership next year. ”

Assertive leadership is the image
that Weaver and her ticket ~ Susan
Bridges and Karl Crase. candidates
for senior and executive vice presi-
dent. respectively — are trying to
show students.

It is an image that Weaver says is
reflected in her platform.

The platform, which contains 13
planks as well as several internal
structural changes, ranges in sub-
ject from limited commercialization

of the Student Center to calling for
the purchase of change machines for
UK residence balls,

The following is a brief description
of the major recommendations in
Weaver‘s platform:

(‘ampus Child Care —— Weaver. in
her platform. says that now is the
time to take steps “toward the im-
plementation of a campus child care
facility“ for staff and students.

”Money is going to be the biggest
problem.“ Weaver said. “When you
talk about day care, you talk about
a lot of money.“

And with recent budget cuts at the
University. Weaver thinks it is un-
realistic to expect large amounts of
funding from the UK administration.

Although Weaver is not sure of
startup costs. she expects expendi-
tures for such a facility to run in the
“hundreds of thousands of dollars.“

Funding, Weaver said, must come
from corporate sponsorship.

Limited Commercialization of the
Student (‘enter —— Weaver has spent
the last year serving on a committee
that dealt with problems of the Stu-
dent Center. The report that the
committee published recommended
limited commercialization of the
center.

“I was a very active“ member of
the committee, Weaver said. “What
(the committee) had to face is that
you cannot expect realistically to
bring businesses into the Student
Center . , . that are large operations

. without doing major renovation
in the Student Center."

That sort of renovation, Weaver
said, is not feasible.

“You can't make a wall in this

building or out big doors in this
building without having to bring the

Irv Thomas. a 6-foot‘7 sopho'

denied reports yesterday that he
plans leaving the Wildcat squad.

The MiamiAHerald reported
yesterday that Thomas was leav-
mg the Kentucky squad after the
summer term and would transfer
to either the l'niversity of Miami
or Florida State.

Ernie Bell. Thomas‘ coach at
(‘arol City High School, was
quoted as saying that Thomas
was unhappy with his position at
Kentucky.

Bell said that Kentucky coach

Thomas. however, denied all
allegations.

“I‘m happy playing at Ken-
tucky," Thomas said. “Even if i
don‘t agree with coach. it doesn‘t
matter because he's in charge.

“As long as I‘m wanted here.
I‘mgoingtostay.“

Thomas said he is looking for-

“I‘m just waiting to get back

the estimate to do that right now is
at $2 million.“she said.

“It just simply isn‘t worth $2 mil-
lion to bring the building up to fire
code so you can get a few hundred
thousand dollars worth of commer-
cial profits out of it,"

Teacher Evaluations — Weaver's
platform makes two recommenda-
tions. First. the t'niversny should
develop a “t'niversitywide standard
of evaluating each faculty member
for each class each semester." Cur~
rently. evaluations are done from
“college to college "

Secondly. teacher evaluations
should be published for students‘
consideration. Weaver expects a lot
of resistance on this aspect of the
recommendation.

Dentists implement
disease protection

By THOMAS J. Sl'l.l.l\'.\f\
Staff Writer

Dentists aren‘t just helping pa-
tients reduce the risk of cavities
anymore

Now they are helping themselves
reduce the risk of AIDS. hepatitis B.
the herpes Simplex virus and other
infectious agents.

Students in the PK College of Den—
tistry. as well as dentists and den-
tistry assistants across the nation.
are beginning to practice new stan»
dards of care for infection control in
dentistry.

The four standards, which were
recommended by the Centers for
Disease Control in Atlanta. are
being implemented “in order to pro~
tect dental professionals and pa,
tients during oral therapy." said Dr
Robert t'almes. editor and publisher
of Infection Control for Dentistry. a
statecirculated UK newsletter.

But the standards of care were
recommended with the safety of the
dentist in mind.

Dentists come in contact with iii-
fectious agents more often than the
public. Calmes said. For example.
“dentists have a six times greater
risk of catching hepatitis B than the
general public."

The first standard recommends
barrier techniques such as “surgical
gloves. face masks and eye protec
tion for the professional." (.‘almes
said. This procedure is "for all pa-
tients."

('izlmes understands that some pa-
tients may be offended by this prac-
tice. but he says it‘s not intended to
imply that a patient has an infec-
tious disease.

"You can't tell from health histt}
ries who has a disease and who does
not." Calmes said "It is best to
treat all patients as if they are pov
tentially a risk."

The second standard states that
“all instruments that have been in
contact with a patient must be ster-
ilized before they are used on anoth-
er patient." Calmes said.

“Some dentists are sterilizing ev-
erything and some are not steriliz-
ing anything What they do is disin-
fect them. but not sterilize." he said.

The third standard calls for disin-
fection of the operating area be-
tween patients‘ appointments.

The chair. the lights and any other
items that a previous patient may
have come in contact with are to be
disinfected. ('almes said

The fourth and final standard is
an “aseptic operating technique."
This “would involve such things as
extreme care in handling sharp obv
Jects in a patient‘s mouth." Calmes
said

After injccting a patient‘s mouth
with Novocam. it is conceivable that
ii dentist could indirectly inoculate
himself With an infectious agent by
pricking himself accidentally with
the needle. ('almes said.

Lottery issue sheds light, heat in debate

By ERIC GREGORY
Staff Writer

Terry Mann. former state rep»
resentative. said debates generally
tend to ”generate more heat than
light."

The debate last night concerning
whether Kentucky should have a
state lottery did both.

The issue was argued by four peo-
ple. two of which are UK students.
before about 50 people in the cham-
bers of the Urban County Council.

Mann opened the discussion by
saying the most obvious benefit of a
lottery is income. The lottery would
raise about $123 million each year.
which would be used to aid state
programs. he said.

Mann said that 69.4 percent of
Kentuckians favor a lottery, making
it a "popular voluntary form of con-
tribution.“

The Rev. Billy Hurt. the next

speaker, said a lottery is a “terrible
and unbelievably inefficient way to
raise revenues.“

Hurt said once the novelty of the
lottery wears off. profits decline and
states have to pour more money into
advertising to increase interest
again.

However, David Witt, a UK eco-
nomics senior. said the states that
have the most successful lotteries
are the ones that have had them the
longest.

Witt and Mann were also opposed
by Ouita Papka. a political science
senior. who admitted that she had
supported the idea of a lottery be-
fore she found out how people are
being “targeted and exploited" by
lotteries.

Papka said that. as a result of
“slick advertising." the poor are

Pianist’s lecture, recital to exhibit
unrealized aspect of Russian culture

By JEREMY N. HOWELL
Staff Writer

Pianist Larry Scully will present a
free public lecture and recital at 4
pm. today in the Recital Hall of the
UK Center for The Arts titled. “The
Development of Slavic Piano MlBlC
in the 19th and 20th Centuries."

Scully. associate professor of
music at the University of South Da-
kota. will illustrate his discussion by
performing ing works from the early
19th century composer Vorisek and
the 20th century composers Medtn-
er. Liapunov and Shootakovich.

Predominantly a performing art—
ist. Scully has traveled extensively
throughout the United States. Po
land and Czechoslovakia.

This year he will give the first

American premier of English com-
poser Stephen Dodgson's 3rd Piano
Sonata at the Lincoln Center in New
York City as well as presenting lec-
tures. master classes and recitals
throughout the Midwest.

Scully‘s appearance at UK is spon-
sored by the Russian and Eastern
studies department. the same body
that presented the symposium on So-
viet-American relatiom in Feb-
ruary.

Dan Nelson, a profs-nor of politi-
cal science, said today's wait is a
significant part of it: dict h (level.
op an awaremu of the Slavic. "Id.

“You cannot develop good rela-
tims with a people with” under-
standing sometllm of their chanc-
ter." Nelson said.

“Scully‘s lecture should reveal an
aspect of Russian culture mUSlC
— to which their mentality has tra-
ditionally been particularly alert."
he said.

Thus. this lecture is part of a
”broad effort“ to provide a back-
ground to one of the geat questions
of today.

On the music in particular. Nelson
points out that all but one of the
composers whose works Scully will
perform appears obscure to Ameri-
can ears.

“Scully is [resenting a new view."
he said. “Most Americans do not
know about this aspect in the devel-
opment of piano literature."

INTRODUCING

ALAN HAWSE Kr-Wie: hid"

A UK hitter takes a pitch against Ohio Dominican yesterday at Shi»
vely Field. UK, now 14-4, recorded an 8-5 win over the Panthers

drove reliever Raul Escobar’s first
offering over the right field fence
with a little help from the wind. It
was his first home run of the season.

"They were looking for a bunt and
we needed it pretty bad,“ he said.
"He just threw me a fastball down
the middle and I took a good cut at
it and the wind did the rest."

Through the next five innings,
CK‘s scoring slowed as the Cats
managed to score only one more
time on two hits.

“We should of had two or three
more innings like the second," Mad-
ison said.

According to Buchanan, the Cats‘
went dry because Escobar calmed
down and got his pitches over the
plate.

“Their pitcher did a little bit bet-
ter job after the second inning," Bu-

Coach Jerry Claiborne is opti-
mistic about his sixth edition of the
UK football team as it prepares for
20 days of spring drills.

At a news conference held yester-
day to kick off spring practice, Clai~
borne said the team had a good off-
season program and is eager to suit
up,

The team will
today at Shively field.

“We're very excited about this
spring," Claiborne said. “We felt
like we had a good winter program.
The players had an excellent atti-
tude and worked hard.“

Hopes are high that hard work
will pay off and the Cats will be able
to rebound from last season‘s 5-5-1
finish.

"People expect us to win now,“
said Brad Myers, a senior offensive
lineman. “They’re tired of seeing
.500 teams. I think everyone wants
to get back on the winning track.”

begin practice

It was not too long ago that the
Cats were on that track. The UK
football squad recorded back-to—
back trips to the Hall of Fame Bowl
in 1983 and '84.

The next season, UK let its win—
ning ways go by the wayside as the
team finished with a 5-6 record.

Claiborne's current record after
five seasons at his alma mater is 25-
29-3.

One reason for the optimism of
this UK squad is the return of a vet-
eran defense. The Cats lose only
three starters from last year‘s unit,
prompting a prediction from the
normally cautious Claiborne.

"We feel we‘ll have a good de-
fensive unit if we stay healthy and
work hard in spring practice," the
UK coach said.

Claiborne said a key to this season
will be how well his wide-tackle six
scheme creates opportunities for the
offense.

“We need to be an offensive de-
fensive unit," he said. “The biggest
thing is to get turnovers and get the
big plays defensively."

Andy Dumotort
Sports Editor

On offense, the biggest question
facing Claiborne is who will take the
quarterbacking reins from the de-
parted Bill Ransdell.

Seven players are in the running
for the position. with fifth-year se-
nior Kevin Dooley, sophomore
Chuck Broughton and junior college
transfer Glenn Fohr being the lead»
ing candidates.

Because of the questionable quar-
terback situation, the Cats may
have to depend on an experienced
corps of running backs.

The return of senior Mark Higgs.
junior Ivy Joe Hunter and redshirt
freshman Al Baker. combined with
a big offensive line, could produce ll
devastating rushing attack.

"We feel like we have some good
running backs,“ Claiborne said.
“It‘s one of our strengths.“

But the main strength of this UK
team will be defense, Claiborne
said. And the UK coach is hoping
there is truth in the old coaches ad-
dage “defense wins football games."

TeolTlrives tOdefeat me

By KAREN PHILLIPS
Staff Writer

The Toll is fighting musical bore-
dom.

The Toll, a rock band from Colum-
bus, Ohio, playing tonight at The
Bottom Line, fights the musical dol-
drums by improvising every song it
plays each time it‘s played.

"The band believes that there‘s
one thing worse than death, and
that's boredom." said singer/guitar—
ist Brad Circone. “That's our style
and we are a close-knit enough
group that we can do that

The songs are not changed thema<

tically, Circone said, but rather per-
spectively.

“It's like foreplay to sex," he said.
“There‘s a different angle but al-
ways the same result."

The Toll's improvisation does
weigh anchor by keeping the same
basic hooks, licks and chorus, Cir-
cone said.

Lead guitarist Rick Silk, Circone‘s
cousin, bassist Greg Howard, and
drummer Brett Mayo generally fol-
low the lead of Circone because
“their independence is not as great
as mine.“ he said.

The Toll considers their original
music a breed of serious rock.

“It‘s a balance between satirical
humor and passionate seriousness,"
Circone said. “Sometimes the lyrics
are so sarcastic you have to smile
and sometimes they're so passionate
you feel like crying."

The Toll recently released a three-
song demo produced by Psychedelic
Furs' bassist Timothy Butler and fi-
nanced by Chrysalis records.

Not surprisingly, the songs are
reminiscent of The Psychedelic Furs
and also seem to follow the clan of
REM-like bands. However, The
Toll adds a raw, but sensual, sound
to their originals.

Senate’s resolution
necessary statement
for U.S. education

It seems that U.S. Secretary of Education William Ben-
nett has some members of the Student Government Asso-

ciation a little peeved.

So much so that tonight the SGA senate will consider a
resolution calling for his resignation.

The resolution states that Bennett “has made repeated
public statements attacking both the value of post-second-
ary education and the dedication and studiousness of col-

lege students."

Furthermore, the resolution asserts that during Ben-
nett's term he has “actively sought steeper cuts for future

education budgets."

“As a whole. the complaints and criticisms against Ben-
nett, paint a picture of a man who is irresponsible and hos-
tile toward the needs of higher education,” the resolution

states.

Well, maybe more than a little peeved.

The fact remains, though, that many of the criticisms
lodged against Bennett are valid. The needs of higher edu-
cation are large and any cuts cannot be afforded. '

YOU would think that education would be a particularly
high priority to the Reagan administration. t would seem
that there is an obvious correlation between our educatio-
nal system and the future success of the country.

Sometimes, particularly under the administration of
Bennett, that priority is forgotten.

Still, this action by the senate seems, on the surface,

quite frivolous.

The possiblility of SGA’s resolution having any effect on
Bennett resigning is improbable.
The resolution’s success, however, is not the most im-

portant factor.

Last year. SGA spent $10 to send a congratulatory note

21st chapter casts entirely different light on novel’s meaning

In this country, the state of the
novel is ever—changing.

It just changed a little more with
Rolling Stone's publication of the
215i chapter of Anthony Burgess' A
Clockwork Orange. The final chap-
ter is revolutionary. It totally
changes the way A Clockwork
Orange has been taught at universi-
ties across this country ever since
its publication.

It changes the way I was first
taught the novel and the way I came
to understand it. In fact, it changes
what I most admired about the
novel — its courage to challenge the
concept of free will, its willingness
to rape the novel of its literary con-
ventions just as Alex, “your humble
narrator" and his droogs raped and
pillaged across their futuristic, fic-
tional city.

The very title of the novel is taken

from a paper written by one of the
novel’s characters which asserts
that man is a clockwork orange, an
organism with a natural appearance
that is actually “a clockwork toy to
be wound by God or the Devil. . . or
the Almighty State," according to
its author.

Aside from this, Burgess spends
300 pages reporting on Alex‘s brutal
exploits, which appear to be deter-
mined by his society. When Alex is
imprisoned by the state and forced
to undergo its form of rehabilitation,
he undergoes yet another level of de—

It’s a statement about the condition of higher education

But no matter. Burgess says that’s
all wrong. Without his last chapter,
which is included in every edition of
the novel except the American edi-
tion, he says it isn‘t even a novel.
Rather, he calls it an allegory, a
fable.

According to Burgess” prologue to
his last chapter in Rolling Stone,
when he first came to America in '61

York publisher who was willing to
buy it was not willing to publish the
last chapter. His rationale was that

Correction

In Monday’s column by Cynthia
A. Palormo, one of the crabs
competing in the crab race was
misidentified.

The crab “Etch" was actually
named “Atch” after A.L. Atchi-
son. founder of the Lexington
chapter of the Phi Sigma Kappa
fraternity.

The Kernel regrets the error.
