The Student Government As-
sociation Senate unanimously
approved a resolution last night
calling for SGA President Sean
Lehman to be placed on UK’s
presidential search committee.

Lehman said that he will take
the resolution to the UK Board
of Trustees‘ Tuesday meeting.
Lehman is the student represen-
tative on the BOT.

The resolution was sponsored
by the Campus Relations Com-
mittee, which is chaired by Sen-
ator at Large Allen Putman.

“It will go to (BOT Chair-
man) Foster Ockennan tomor-
row, and it’ll sit on his desk,"
Lehman said during the meet-
ing.

Future student representatives
must be appointed by the SGA
president and approved by the
Senate.

Senator at Large Ashley Boyd
said the resolution ensures that
“the ruling hand politics has on
education" will be minimized in
the presidential search.

“I don't want somebody
who’s a yes-man for the gevem—
er“ representing students, Boyd
said. “I think voting against (the
resolution) will be voting
against students having a voice
in their university."

According to University regu-
lations, SGA is the official
voice of the student body and
the president is the leader of the
student body. But during presi-
dential searches. regulations
stipulate that the BOT chairman

 

 

may appoint any student to the
committee.

“What we are doing is setting
a precedent by endorsing that
the Student Government Associ-
ation endorse a candidate for the
representative." Lehman said
yesterday before the meeting.
“The faculty get to elect their
representative. The community
colleges get to elect their repre-
sentative. But the students do
not get to vote on theirs."

Lehman said that the resolu—
tion is not intended to place him
on the committee, but rather to
ensure that student gevemment
is consulted in the selection ofa
qualified individual.

“It‘s just that I think the Stu~
dent Government Association
needs to be consulted before the
student representative is ap-
pointed," Lehman said.

Ockerrnan said that Lehman
contacted him this week about
serving on the search committee.

“Mr. Lehman has talked to
me,“ Ockerman said. “And I
have received a letter from
him."

The committee is expected to
be named at the trustees‘ meet-
ing.

“We‘re all aware of the regti~
lations that govern the appoint—
ments, and I‘m just going to
make the appointments by the
23rd." Ockerman said.

Lehman was one of the five
members of the BOT who voted
against (‘harles Wethington be,

Many SGA officials are con

Lehman said that he will also
recommend to the board that the

interim president include a stu»
dent and a representative from
the community college system.

Tax plan
catches
legislators
by surprise

FRANKFORT, Ky. —— Ken-
tucky legislators, many of whom
have been advocating more state
revenue, found themselves yester-
day staring at a Si billion tax in-
crease drepped in their laps by
Gov. Wallace Wilkinson.

“1 sure wasn‘t expecting to have
a tax increase out of the govemer’s
office like this," said Sen. John
Hall, D-Henderson.

“I was surprised that he would
ever take on such a tax project
with all his past statements about
taxes," agreed Rep. Sam McElrey.
D-Waverly. “It surprised us in the
magnitude of it.”

Many legislators also began tak-
ing potshets at parts of the tax
package and questioning Wilkin-
son‘s comments that it is directed
at people who have not been pay-
ing a fair share.

Others agreed that the amount of
money Wilkinson would raise is in
line, but took issue with the specif-
ic taxes he proposed. Still others
said Wilkinson is seeking too
much ofa tax increase.

The Democratic gevemer pro
posed sweeping changes in the per-
sonal income tax laws by adopting
the federal income-tax code and
eliminating the deduction on state
taxes of federal income taxes.

The other areas of Wilkinson's
tax program are a 7-cent increase
in the cigarette tax. a 1 percent in-
crease in the corporate income tax
and the extension of the 5 percent
sales tax on a host of services.

Troops in Caucasus allowed to shoot

Associated Press

MOSCOW — The Kremlin told
the thousands of soldiers it sent to
the Caucasus yesterday to shoot if
need be to halt bands of Azerbaija-
nis and Armenians fighting each
other in hills around the disputed
territory of Nagomo-Karabakh.

Thousands of Armenian refugees
poured from the southern republic
of Azerbaijan. many beaten or
chased from their homes by angry
mobs. Some blamed the attacks on
Azerbaijanis who earlier fled ethnic
violence in Armenia.

The death toll rose to 58, mostly
Armenians, and the number of in-
jured to 169 in five days of civil

warfare. an interior Ministry offi-
cral said.

The evening TV news show
“Vremya” ran a statement from the
KGB and the interior and defense
ministries, which control troops in
the area. that said: “Risking their
lives, they have so far refrained
from using arms against criminals
to prevent bloodshed.

“However, a sharp increase in
outrageous attacks has made the sit—
uation unbearable," and the soldiers
now were permitted to use their
weapons in accordance with mili-
tary rules and Soviet law.

Four burned bodies were found in
Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, the
official news agency Tass said yes-

terday. Eighteen Armenian residents
were injured in Azerbaijan the past
24 hours.

The violence erupted Saturday
with anti-Armenian riots in Baku.
Fighting rapidly spread to Nagomo-
Karabakh and nearby areas of Azer-
baijan, with the belligerents using
helicopters. armored vehicles, ma
chine guns and other arms seized
from government arsenals or offered
by compatriots.

It was the worst fighting between
mainly Moslem Azerbaijanis and
mostly Christian Armenians since
their decades-old feud over Nagomo-
Karabakh erupted in violence two
years ago.

The enclave, populated mainly

by Armenians, has been ruled by
Azerbaijan since 1923 and the cur
rent troubles were sparked by its
demand in Febnrary 1988 to be an-
nexed by Armenia. It has about
160,000 people.

Iran‘s spiritual leader. Ayatollah
Ali Khamenei, said yesterday that
Islamic fervor was behind events
in Soviet Azerbaijan, and warned
Moscow not to deal harshly with
the Shiite Moslem upsurge, Teh-
ran radio reported. The broadcast,
monitored in Cyprus, quoted Kha-
menei as saying “anyone who
thinks or pretends that the motives
behind these movements are ethnic
or nationalistic is making a big
mistake."

Iran watchful of events
in Soviet Azerbaijan

Associated Press

NICOSIA, Cyprus —— The vio-
lence in Soviet Azerbaijan has
heightened fears in Tehran that the
unrest could spread to Iran’s north-
western provinces, which have a
history of turbulence and opposi-
tion to the fundamentalist regime.

Official reports from the Soviet
region say dozens of Christian
Armenians and Shiite Moslem
Azerbaijanis have been killed in
clashes over who should control the
mostly Armenian enclave of Nagor-
no-Karabakh. The region has been
part of the Azerbaijani republic
since 1923.

“There’s a danger that if the So—
viet Azerbaijanis engage Soviet
troops, and use Iranian Azerbaijan
as a sanctuary, they may embroil
their cousins in Iran in their fight,
forcing Tehran to make decisions it
would rather not make," analyst
Shahram Chubin said.

”The Iranian Azerbaijanis are not
strong fans of the Islamic Repub-
lic,” said Chubin, an Iran specialist
with Geneva's Graduate Institute of
International Affairs.

Nationalists in Soviet Azerbaijan
are demanding the establishment of
a “Greater Azerbaijan," which
would bring some 20 million Azer-
baijanis on both sides of the border
together in an independent, oil-rich
state.

Soviet Shiite Moslems share a
common language, culture and re-
ligion with their kin across the
border in Iranian Azerbaijan. "The
use of the Iranian connection by
the Azerbaijanis in the Soviet Un-
ion is a tactical one,” Chubin said.

“It is not an intention to unite
with Iran, but with the Iranian
Azerbaijanis. We‘re talking about
the creation of new states between
Iran and the Soviet Union," he
said. “If the Soviets are unable or
unwilling to impose control, this
will encourage the extremists to go
all the way — full autonomy,
which is difficult to distinguish
from secession.”

The Iranian media have been
muted in coverage of events in So-
viet Azerbaijan and the govern-
ment, which until a couple of
years ago would have hailed Shiite
aspirations in the Soviet Union,
has said little about the bloodshed.

Iranian authorities have said they
have “no problem" in allowing So-
viet Azerbaijanis to travel to Iran
and have called for free trade across
the border. Tehran hopes this len-
ient policy will cap any nationalis-
tic passions on its side.

Azerbaijan, wholly under Iranian
rule until 1828, was divided fol-
lowing a war with Czarist Russia.
Families were split up when So-
viet dictator Josef Stalin sealed the
border in 1921.

 

 

 

Community—work bill
clears Senate, 35-1

Associated Press

FRANKFORT, Ky. — Taking a cue from one county's effort to
relieve jail overcrowding, the Senate passed a bill yesterday that
would allow judges to sentence some offenders to community work
instead of jail.

Giving judges the latitude to mete out community work should
save counties money and would let non—violent offenders take part in
community-betterment projects, said Sen. Fred Bradley, D-Frankfort,
sponsor of Senate Bill 51.

“If we can take these people and not have to put them in jail, it
saves jail space for more hardened prisoners,“ he said.

The bill, which passed 35-] and now goes to the House, is mod-
eled after an effort in Hopkins County, in which some offenders
have been sentenced to various community improvement projects in-
stead ofjail, Bradley said.

Sen. Kim Nelson, D-Madisonville, whose district includes Hop-
kins County, said about 50 people have participated in the program.
However, the Hopkins County jail still is housing about 90 prison-
ers, even though the jail was constructed to hold 60, said Nelson,
who supported the measure.

Hopkins County officials had proceeded with the work-release pro—
gram by citing another section of state law, but they wanted the bill
for clarification to ensure they have authority to allow such sentenc~
ing, Bradley said.

Under the measure, people convicted of violent crimes would be
ineligible for community work. or “conditional discharge," Bradley
said.

One senator, however, raised concerns that such a bill would be
bad politics in an election year, citing the oints President Bush
scored on prison furloughs during the 1988 presidential campaign.

Sen. Nelson Allen, D-Greenup, who cast the dissenting vote.
raised concerns about whether violent criminals could slip through
the cracks and become pan of the alternative sentencing program.

“I guess I’m living in the Willie Horton syndrome,“ said Allen,
who noted that his term ends this year. Bradley emphasized that vio—
lent criminals would not enter community-work programs and said
he is also up for re-election.

Horton, a convicted murderer. was on furlough from a Massachu-
setts prison when he raped a woman. Bush cited the incident in ac-
cusing his Democratic opponent, Massachusetts Gov. Michael Du-
kakis. of being soft of crime.

Participants of community projects could live at home and seek
part-time employment to support their families, Bradley said. Under
current law, county inmates can work during the day but must return
to jail for the night.

If 385] wins enactment, judges could sentence people to a variety
of projects for state or local governments. A person‘s community-
service sentence could not exceed the maximum jail sentence for his
offense, and in no case could the community work exceed five years.

Prisoners couldn‘t work more than eight hours a day, five days a
week.

In other action, the Senate passed 36-0 3 bill assigning the state
Department of Agriculture to promote the marketing of farm-raised
fish.

Sen. John Hall, D-Henderson, sponsor of SB9, said there is a
growing market for farm-raised fish, and such an endeavor could pro-
vide Kentucky farmers with a supplemental income.

A bill increasing membership of the State Board of Agriculture to
15 from nine won Senate approval on a 36-0 vote.

The expansion is necessary because the board would assume the
duties of the Egg Marketing Board and the Dog Law Advisory Com-
mittee, said Sen. Greg Higdon, D-Fancy Farm.

Second Season

to open ‘Joe Egg’

By HWTER HAYES
Assistant Arts Editor

A UK Second Season production
of Peter Nichols’ black comedy “A
Day in the Death of Joe Egg” will
open tomorrow night at the Briggs
Theatre in the Fine Arts Building.

The play focuses on Brian and
Sheila Egg, the parents of a multi—
handicapped ll-year-old girl named
Joe and their inability to deal with
her afflictions, according to director
Todd ny.

The first act opens with Brian and
Sheila speaking to the audience and
explaining their predicament. The
main focus is on the problems that
Brian has dealing with Joe, whom
Lacy describes as an “epileptic,
quadraplegic vegetable that suffers
from Grand Mal seizures.”

Vaudeville-type skits also are in-
cluded in the first act that help ex-
plain to the audience the problems
that Brian and Sheila are having
dealing with Joe and their resulting
frustrations.

Melissa Rae White, who plays
Sheila, said that the skits serve as
an outlet for Brian and Sheila. “It
doesn't make fun of the serious
ness," White said. “But they pro—
vide an outlet for the characters.“

The second and final act has the
couple‘s friends, Pam and Freddie,
and Joe’s grandmother coming over,
which increases their problems. It
is in the second act that Brian at-
tempts to kill .loe.

Lacy warns that the way in which
Brian treats Joe makes this a “black

comedy.”
“The way that Brian treats Joe
could be seen as cruel,” Lacy said.
“Brian‘s treatment of Joe is treated
with a comic mask. it is the actor’s
job to charm the audience."
Sheila is characterized by White
as a woman who has grown strong-
er because of her child.

“She’s a very strong woman. She
is responsible as an adult,” White
said. “She didn‘t used to be, but her
child has made her responsible and
she feels responsible for her child's
condition."
White said the play is not meant
to offend people.
“Some people might take of-
fense,” White said. “But it’s a black
comedy. It may make light of the
seriousness (of Joe's condition),
but it‘s as serious as it is comical.”
Nichols is very adept in the black
comedy genre, Lacy said.
“He‘s written lots of tragic come—
dies, and he’s quite good at it,"
Lacy said. “This play is very pres-
cntational."

The play, which was originally
scheduled to open yesterday, was
postponed because the lead actor
suffered from pneumonia, Lacy
said. Matthew Stone stepped in to
take over the role of Brian. Shelly
Scott will play Joe.

“A Day in the Death afloe Egg" . _

UK jumps out to early lead,
upsets No. 25 Tide 82-65

By TOM SPALDlNG
Executive Editor

This wasn't just any old team
that UK trounced last night. This
was Alabama, the 25th-ranked team
III the land. This was the Crimson
‘l tde. .1 team that came into Rupp
Arena tour points shy of being un-
tklt‘ait'd.

But those nutnbers didn’t faze
l K lhe Wildcats shocked the con-
St‘i\.lli\t‘ Alabama team with tough
delcnse and their customary 3-point
attack and whipped the Crimson
Tide 83—65.

”1 don‘t know what phase of the
game to praise more because we
played well in all facets," said a
beaming L'K coach Rick Pitino.
“We‘ve done good things as the
season has gone on, but that’s the
best team efiort. both on offense
and detense that we‘ve had all
season long."

Alabama coach Wimp Sanderson
said just the opposite for his team.

“l‘m disappointed with the way
\\ e played. but Kentucky had a lot
to do with it." he said.

Sanderson didn't say much about
the game. but the unhappy look on
his face spoke louder than his plaid
racket. Alabama played honbly, let-
ting a smaller and less experienced
Wildcat squad dictate the tempo.

“Kentucky deserved this victory,”
Sanderson said before walking out

had a right to be.
