Overcrowded, inefficient cam-
pus buses should be obsolete by
next fall thanks to major revi-
sions in UK's mass transit sys-
tern.

 

Don Thornton. director of Park-
ing and Transportation Services,
said a special committee has devel-
oped a plan designed to improve
the bus system in response to nu-
merous complaints by passengers.

“Students spend too much time
waiting for the buses," Thornton

said, “and students are spending too
much time on the buses."

The plan eliminates LexTran bus
travel on Rose Street from Wash-
ington Avenue to Euclid Avenue.

Thornton said the “two main
glitches" in current bus routing oc-

Revised bus routes to begin in fall

Once the revisions, which in-
clude acquiring new LexTran and
CATS buses, are implemented, a
new “Campus-Stadium" route will
replace the present Blue and White
routes.

“As opposed to having two
routes, we will have one," Thom-
ton said. “We anticipate a five-
minute headway during peak hours.
and, at the worst case scenario, a
10-minute headway during non-
peak hours."

Under to the new plan, most pas-
sengers will never wait more than
10 minutes for a bus, Thornton
said.

The new route will begin in
Commonwealth Stadium‘s K-Lot,
travel from Cooper Drive to South
Limestone Street, up Rose to Wash-
ington, and then return to South
Limestone. The buses will return to
the stadium via Cooper.

Two new CATS buses will cover
four additional routes servicing
Lexington Community College,
Cooperstown Apartments, Virginia
Avenue and, in the fall, evening
passengers.

Riders on the LCC route should

expect a 30-minute wait be-
tween buses. This bus travels
from LCC to North Campus and
back.

Thornton said the second
CATS route is unique because it
marks the first time buses “have
actually gone into Coopers-
town." Residents will receive
transportation from the campus
apartment complex to several ar-
eas of Central Campus with
about a 20-minute delay be-
tween buses.

The third CATS route offers
transportation along Euclid,
Rose and South Limestone from
the parking lot on Virginia Ave-
nue, These buses run every 20
minutes.

Thornton said the evening
buses will run until i am. Mon—
day through Thursday. covering
a large route beginning at the

routes are designated, but Thom-

UK NOW endorses
ones for president

 

By Sara Spears
Staff Writer

 

UK's National Organization for
Women affiliate announced its en-
dorsement yesterday of TA. Jones
for Student Government Associa-
tion president.

After several years of remaining
neutral in SGA elections, the stu-
dent group decided this year to go
public with its opinion, said UK
NOW president Jennifer Taylor.

“Having reviewed the platforms
and meeting the majority of the can-
didates, we have decided that T.A.
Jones embodies not only our ideolo-
gy. but the best hope for change on
UK’s campus," Taylor said at a
press conference in the Student
Center.

“He offers expansion of free
speech which would allow other or-
ganizations. including ours, to be

heard."

UK NOW also is pleased with
Jones' pledge to secure more stu-
dent representation on the Board of
Trustees, Taylor said. One student,
the SGA president, currently sits on
the governing body.

Jones said the
endorsement
“means more
than you’ll ever
know."

“With NOW
supporting me,"
the fifth-year ar-
chitecture stu-
dent said, “I
can’t be a loser.
We've already
won because we
are fighting for
democracy. Now let’s get out there,
tear down the machine and build a

One can not miss the air of
confidence Alicia Williams dis-
plays.

Perhaps that confidence am be
attributed to her most recent suc-
cess.

Williams, an Afro-American
studies major, has just been ac-
cepted into the prestigious Amer-
ican Musical and Drama Acade-
my.

Thousands of aspiring actors
and actresses applied for the 300
spots in early February.

The application process is a se-
ries of auditions. Williams was
required to perform a mono-
logue, a drama and a comedy.

Frank Walker, head of audi-
tions for the academy, said Wil-
liams had a wide range of talents
and encouraged her to pursue
them. This vote of confidence
was all she needed.

“I didn‘t always have faith in
what I could and could not do,"
Williams said. “Encouragement
seems to give me the reassurance
Ineed."

Williams began her career in

 

the arts when transferring to UK in
the fall of '88. She was raised in
Detroit came here with a high level
of esteem and determination.

She experienced severe culture
shock, however, after arriving at
such a large university.

Williams said she was frightened
and wanted reassurance, which she
achieved through acting and sing-
ing.

Williams said she always has
known in her heart that she wanted
a future in acting.

She considers this acceptance to
be a blessing —— a sign.

“I am one that believes strongly
in fate." Williams said.

“I put off filling out this applica-
tions for months. And at the last
minute, I decided to go ahead and
give it a try. Look what happened!"

Despite knowing that her heart
belonged to theater, she decided to
major in business. Her grades,
however, proved her choice to be
poor.

She then changed her major to
elementary education.

This major also was short-lived.

“Once I began to do my work-
study in the classroom, I soon real-
ized that I did not have any pa—

Senior anticipates future
in acting with confidence

tience for children."

Williams then considered her
third and final major, Afro-
American studies.

At UK‘s graduation ceremony
May 8, Williams will be the first
University student ever to receive
such a degree.

Williams said her time at UK
helped her grow as an individual
and gain her focus.

She said being crowned Miss
Black UK in 1992 taught her to
love herself and to have faith in
her abilities. This achievement
paved the road for many more to
come.

Asked where she turned for sup-
port, Williams beamed as she
looked at future husband, Dereck
Hicks.

“He is my best friend," she said
of her high school sweetheart. “He
is the one that knows just what to
say to make me feel special and
important."

ller family displays the same
amount of pride at Williams‘ ac-
complishments. Her mother, how-
ever, thinks Williams should get a
dependable job after earning her
diploma.

“My family does support what I
intend to do." Williams said. “But

my mother would much rather I
get a job upon graduating. She
just wants me to have something
to fall back on."

But Williams said she doesn‘t
like to consider the possibility of
failure — a quality that makes
her a pleasure to be around.

“If I do not succeed in my pur-
suit of an acting career, I hope to
combine theater and Afro-
Amcrican studies in some way,"
the driven actress said.

Williams also hopes to, in
some way, be a role model for
young black girls everywhere.

“While I was growing up. I
was so unsure of myself," she
said.

“I searched all over for some-
one to steer me in the right direc-
tion.

“The struggles I have experi-
enced have made me much
stronger. A lot of blessings came
my way throughout the past few
years.

I look to these for insight and
encouragement."

After her marriage in August,
Williams plans to travel to New
York to pursue her studies at the
American Musical and Drama
Academy.

Secretary of State Bob Babbage
publicly appointed UK law profes-
sor Carolyn S. Bratt to the Ken-

yesterday.

Babbage spoke highly of Bratt's
abilities during a press conference
at the Lexington-Fayette Urban

“I wanted to find someone ex-
ceptional and with leadership quali-
ties," Babbage said. “She is well
respected, has great intellect and
clearly is a model of integrity.“

As a member of the registry,
Bratt will monitor campaign contri-

Dr. Bruce Lucas, president of
Kentucky Organ Donor Affiliates
and a kidney transplant surgeon,
said in a short speech that he is
pleased about recent increases in
the number of organ donations and
transplants.

“Collectively, with all of us
working together, we are narrowing
the gap for Kentuckians needing
transplants," he said.

A second speaker to the small
crowd was a UK heart/lung trans-
plant surgeon Dr. Michael Sekela,
later said the success of UK‘s trans-
plant program can be traced to ef-
forts in donor awareness.

“UK has become a model in

Dr. Steve Johnson said compas-
sion in working with donors‘ fami-

other prime reason for UK's
success.

Ohio woman
yo-yoing way
through life

By Llsa Cornwall
Associated Press

 

 

AKRON, Ohio — Linda
Sengpiel's philosophy is sim-
ple: Just “yo for it."

She can work two yo-yos si-
multaneously. She can yo-yo
and juggle at the same time.
She can use a yo-yo to light a
match from 5 feet away. And
when she can find someone
brave enough to put a poker
chip on his ear, she can knock
it off with one quick flick of —-
well, you get the idea.

For Sengpiel, yo-yoing was a
passion born one day 47 years
ago when she picked up that
magical spinning disc and
looped its string around her fin-
ger.

“My mom said she was
afraid I would break all the
windows in the house, but she
never told me to put it down,"
said Sengpiel, who is now 50.

By age 8, she had won her
first competition. By 12, she
was so good the Duncan Yo-
Yo Co. hired her to travel the
country promoting its products.

“She definitely was, and
probably still is, one of the best
yo-yoists in the country," said
Donald Duncan. whose family
owned Duncan Yo-Yo until
1967.

These days, Sengpiel has her
own company, Supersonic Yo-
Yo Promotions.

Her three children, who have
sometimes helped with perfor-
mances. are proud of their
mother, says Sengpiel's 29-
year-old son, Rick.

“No matter what you do, if
you‘re the best at what you do,
people have to respect you," he
said.

Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain is
the second long-player from Pave-
ment, a tuneful and noisy band
which has ascended to the throne of
college-rock darlings.

It's messy and fuzzy, sometimes
vague. but it works more often than
not.

The first single, the winning “Cut
Your Hair." takes a swipe at musi-
cians who worry too much about
being successful and forget
to make music that's true to
themselves.

songs are bought," singer-

if he fears that being in the band

that's as good a summation
of the slacker mentality as Beck's
monstrously overplayed “Loser."

The guys establish a nice, some-
times out-of-tune melody, run
through a couple of verses, then just
give up singing entirely and start
fiddling around on their instruments
for while.

This directionless playing starts
to become really annoying when it
gets up around the two-minute
mark (reminiscent of Sonic Youth.
which ruined a perfectly good song
called “Mote" by attaching four
minutes of needless feedback to the
end). but it's neat for a while.

Other album highlights include
the opening cut “Silence Kit" (it's
listed as “Silence Kid" on the inside

The walls vibrated and the ceil-
ing shook at the Otis A. Single-
tary Center for the Arts Friday
night, as the Lexington Philhar-
monic's performance of the en-
during ninth symphony of Bee-
thoven took flight.

George Zack, the philharmon-
ic’s conductor, was put to the test
as he led his orchestra in this
monimiental work.

The evening began with a per~
formance of Giuseppi Verdi's
sad and strong death march. Te
Deum for four Sacred Pieces.

This work was sometimes halt-
ing and reserved, but it set the
mood for the hour-long sympho-
ny to come.

Known largely for his operatic
works, Verdi was a proficient
composer with a brooding. some—
times melancholy sound that is

 

quite distinctive, even in a piece as
varied as Te Deum for four Sacred
Pieces. Verdi requested that this
piece, composed in 1898, be buried
with him as a last testament.

After 150 years, the ninth sym-
phony of Beethoven has become
legendary. With its five movements
and ranging voices, the philharmon-
ic's interpretation of the symphony
covered a flowing range of emo-
tions.

The first movement, an up-beat
introduction which sometimes
slipped under your skin, showed the
deep convictions of Beethoven.
Definitely a symbol of the Roman-
tic Era, this first movement was
fraught with strings and rich brood-
ings.

Pulling the audience firmly to the
edge of wonder, the second move-
ment, “Molto Vivace," then took
the audience to the more comical
side of life. It began with the loud
bangs of the kettle drum, which

Philharmonic plays with Vigor

seems to have become the most em-
phasized instrument in this move-
ment.

Then this lusty and zealous feel-
ing for life, which seems to exude
from the second movement. is sud-
denly substituted by the third,
which starts off philosophically,
wondering about the beyond, and
gradually segues into a strength of
will put to the audience by the mim-
icking string and horn sections.

The third movement sent the au-
dience into a trance.

Once the audience slipped off,
wondering whether or not they
would melt into nothingness. the
tenor voice of Erik Johanson sud-
denly joined the ranks of the per-
formers.

Johanson's beautiful vocal sways
echoed through the auditorium,
making demands in German of eve-
ryone who listened.

The feel of the piece now brought
out of its tranquility as three other

three voices joined Johanson: the

ful sounds and seemed to work
well together.

The four voices, along with the
llo-voice Lexington Singers,
brought a fervor of the magnifi-
cent to those who listened.

At the majesty of the fifth

movement. the hall shook and re-
sounded.

And audience members seemed
to lift out of their seats as the
choir shouted in German. “Look
to the skies. brothers! Look to the
skies!"

All in all, it was a valiant per-
formance and a worthy attempt,
given the scale and sheer magni-
tude of this piece, which has. for
years, been the hallmark of sym-
phonic music and the ultimate
trial for musicians everywhere.

One good thing about Crooked
Rain, Crooked Rain is that the band
stylistically goes all over the place
and, thus, prevents itself from being
pigeonholed.

Pavement has been compared to
Sonic Youth and R.EM.. and
though both bands‘ influences are
evident, the band doesn't really
sound like either of those two.

Once a band gets a label stuck to
it, it's irritating and very hard to
shake off (witness R.E.M.'s diffi-
culty in escaping the “jangly” tag,
and Soundgarden's quest to get past
being called “grunge").

Where many bands will kill their

ment finds itself in the opposite
predicament: A few of the songs
here. like “Newark Wilder," lose
some of their impact because
they're still embryonic.

Johnson’s scare tactics beneficial to Cats;
hard-hitting senior could end up in NFL

 

By Doc Purcell

Melvin Johnson smiled cheerful-
ly and spoke softly about his role
on the UK football team just mo-
ments after finishing another rigor-
ous spring practice.

But the gruff words that poured
from his mouth didn't quite seem
to fit his calm persona.

“If they catch it, they have to

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 

 

 

pay for it." he said, referring to the
hord of opposing receivers who
have fallen prey to his defensive
attack on the field.

“(I want) to scare the other peo-
ple. The game is intimidation.”

As he delved into a discussion
of the pan he hopes to play for the
Wildcats in his final collegiate sea—
son this fall. the paradox he pre-
sented became even more obvious.

As a senior free-safety, Johnson
returns to a UK secondary that
made boundless improvements last
year, and he is again expected to
be one of the unit's featured attrac-
tion’s ~ touting experience and
talent that is nearly unparalleled by
anyone else on the team.

“Melvin Johnson is one of the
better players in the country. and
we expect him to take a leadership
role." UK defensive coordinator
Mike Archer said.

Johnson knows that role is nec-
essary, but he plans to go about it
in his own quiet way.

“I tend to lead more by example
then being vocal." he said.

Indeed, it is the example that he
sets on the field that makes his
sideline disposition seem so
strange. There is no friendly smile,
but rather an air of fierccness that
