eW searc
emanded
y faculty

By GREGORY A. HALL
Senior Staff Writer

Two faculty members on UK’s
Presidential Search Committee said
they are withdrawing from the
search process, in response to a Uni-
versity Senate yesterday resolution
calling for a new search.

Carolyn S. Bratt and William
Lyons said they would follow the
resolution passed yesterday by the
senate.

It also calls for postponement of
next week's scheduled presidential
selection and the appointment of a
new interim president who cannot
be a candidate for the presidency.

The third faculty member on the
committee, Loys Mather, will de-
cide today whether on not he will
withdraw.

The resolution is not binding to
the 30 faculty members who will in-
terview candidates, and does not ap-
ply faculty trustees voting at the
Sept. 18 board meeting, where a
president is scheduled to be select-
ed.

Trustees chairman Foster Ocker-
man Sr. said that he is “disappointed
with the faculty senate because I
think that the search committee has
carried out its responsibility in a
bona fidc fashion.”

Bratt said the search’s flaw was
allowing the interim president to be
a candidate for the position.

Interim President Charles Weth-
ington is a finalist, along with Peggy
Gordon Elliott, chancellor of India-
na University‘s Gary campus. Some
faculty alluded yesterday that Weth-
ington is assured the presidency.

Wethington could not be reached
for comment last night.

He is visiting the campus today
for meetings with members of the
UK community, and Elliott will vis-
it tomorrow.

In briefing the University Senate
abOut the search process, Lyons said
a trustee had inhibited the search.

“There was a point somewhere a
month or so ago when we really felt
that we had made some headway in
getting some very suong contenders
into this ball game," Lyons said.
“We weren’t naive about all the ru-
mors out there. But there is not a
whole lot that anyone can do when a
board member put the word out that
there are 15 votes against you going
in.

Bratt said that she knew of three
candidates who withdrew because
of pressure from a board member.

Mathematics professor Michael
Freeman’s original version of the
resolution called the search “funda-
mentally flawed" and asked faculty

' In a front-page editorial, the
Kernel asked that the search

that Foster Ockerman. chair-
man of both the search com-
mittee and Board of Trustees,
should resign; and that earn-
pus leaders initiate a Universi-
tywide walk-cut if the searett
is not re-opened. .

Both Wethington and Oct:-
etman dismissed the editbrial,
saying it did not refleet cam~
pus views and that the news-
paper staff was illainformed.

“I’m quite sure this does
not in any way reflect the
opinion of the 40,000 students
in the community college sys-
tem, and I don't think it re-

Whenever Frank Walker visited
metropolitan areas like Chicago,
New York and Atlanta, he said he
always admired the murals on
walls and billboards —— especially
because there weren‘t any in Lex-
ington.

So when Walker, director of the
UK Martin Luther King Cultural
Center, had the opponunity to
paint a mural on the fence behind
the Dunbar Center at 545 North
Upper St., he eagerly accepted.
That was before he saw how long
the fence was.

“If I’d seen the fence I might

 

have said, ‘You all will have to
rob a bank first,” Walker said
with a laugh. “It’s 50 yards long:
that’s half a football field."

And if Walker underestimated
the size of the job, so did boxing-
ton Fayette-County Parks and
Recreation and the Dunbar Associ-
ation, which gave Walker the op»
portunity to create the longest mu-
ral in the state.

“I go out there and they gave me
six quarts of paint for the fence."
Walker said. He was quick to disa—
gree, telling them, “Let’s try six
gallons."

Kelly Salmons, cultural arts spe-
cialist for Lexington Parks and
Recreation, contacted Walker

about doing the mural after several
people had mentioned the idea in
various meetings.

“I’m a real big proponent of
public art," Salmon said. “The area
he painted was usually LOVCTL‘tl
with graffiti. We thought a mural
would be good and wanted li to he
an African~Antcrican theme. lie
was one of the first artists to:
thought of... we left everything up
to him.”

Walker was looking to give the
residents of the neighborth a do
piction of the history of Airman
Americans with the mural.

"(The) mural is supposed to be a
chronicle of the black man from
the beginning,“ he said, “it starts

SGA blood drive suffers from low turnout

By MARY MADDEN
Staff Writer

Last year, UK’s annual Student
Government Association-sponsored
blood drive raised 193 units of
blood — the largest number of units
ever collected at the SGA drive.

That increased interest in blood
donation prompted Central Ken-
tucky Blood Center officials to set a
goal of 200 units this year‘s SGA

blood drive.

But only 26 units of blood were
collected yesterday -— the first day
of this year’s drive.

Today is the last day of the SGA
drive, which will be held from 10: i0
am. to 3:30 pm. in the Student
Center Ballroom. Officials at the

Former Wildcat indicted on assault charges

By MEREDITH LITTLE
Special Projects Writer

Former UK basketball player Der-

rick Miller was
arraigned yester-
day in Fayette
District Court on
charges of
fourth-degree as-
sault and con-
tempt of coun.

Miller was ar-
rested last Friday . .
night and held at
Fayette County MILLER
Detention Center until a third-party
release was signed Saturday mom-
ing.

Immediately after his release,
Miller was taken to the Madison
County Detention Center and arrest-
ed on charges of theft by failure to
make required disposition of proper-
ty.

According to the Madison County
Clerk's office, Miller was released

later that day on a $5,000 surety
bond. guaranteed by a third party. A
trial date was set for Oct. 15 in Mad-
ison County District Court.

Miller, a full-time UK senior,
pleaded not guilty to the charge of
fourth-degree assault. A trial date
was set by Judge Kevin M. Home
for Oct. 5 in Fayette County District
Court.

Fourth-degree assault is a class A
misdemeanor, carrying a fine of up
to S l .000 or one year in jail.

A second charge of contempt of
court for failing to pay a $47.50
speeding citation was dropped, after
Miller said he had paid it yesterday
morning.

The warrant for Miller‘s arrest
was issued Sept. 4. after the former
UK basketball guard got into an ar-
gument with UK student Rebecca
Collins at a bar on Main Street on
Sept. 2.

The complaint on file in Fayette

District Court records stated that
during the argument, Miller grabbed
Collins by her hair and slapped her
on the face, “causing bruising on the
right side of her face."

Although both the Fayette County
Police arrest warrant and the UK
Registrar‘s Office list Miller‘s ad-
dress as 337 Lexington Ave. —
Wildcat Lodge — a person who an-
swered the phone at the front desk
last night said Miller had not lived
there at all this semester. Miller was
arrested by UK Police at Wildcat
Lodge Friday night.

Miller could not be reached last
night, and Collins declined to com-
ment.

Also, Chris Cameron. sports in-
formation director for UK. was not
available for comment

The charge against Miller in Mad-
ison County of theft by failure to
make required disposition of proper-
ty was filed by a Toyota South car
dealership in Richmond.

Bud Gates, sales manager at Toy—
our South, said he filed charges after
Miller did not return a Toyota truck
he wanted to try out ovemight.

“He (Miller) represented he tn-
tended to buy something and wanted
to keep it ovemight,“ Gates said.

Gates said the dealership allowed
Miller to take the vehicle on Aug.
28 or 29, with the agreement he
would return it the next morning.

The dealership then did not hear
from Miller about the truck until re-
ceiving a phone call on Sept. 5 or o
from a person identifying himself as
a friend of Miller's.

The caller informed Toyota South
that the truck was in a residential
driveway in Lexington with the key
in it, and a person was sent from the
dealership to retrieve it.

If Miller is convicted in Madison
County. he faces a felony charge
and one to five years in prison.

Continued from page 1

America flag and a polo symbol
onitanddolltsignsforeyes.

"l'hat (panel) represents the mate-
rialism that blacks have bought into.
The nose is narrowed. like Miclnel
Jackson's. and it has blue eye con-
tacts," Walker said. "I'hat’s what
being an American rs all about. be-
ing a materialist. The corporate cul-
ture values assimilation. When you
buyintothat"youbeeomepartot‘the
mainstream."

From that statement one might
think Walker’s work is just a criti-
cism of contemporary society. But
to the contrary, Walker is very posi-
tive and has put images of Malcom
X and other influential African-
Americans on the mural. One of the
pmels contains the names of several
African-Americans as well as peo-
ple who helped on the fence. Walk-
er had a reason for putting the
names on a simple white back-
ground on the fence.

“I' d like to think that young Afri-
can- American kids can go through
there (by the mural) and get a good
feeling about,” Walker said. “And
eventually be curious enough to try
and figure out who the names are
and look them up and learn more
about them.”

The last panel of fence is a mod-
emistic one where Walker sought to
fuse several elements.

In the futuristic panel the helmet
has “a Star Trek symbol on it and
on top of it an emblem of Africa”
said Walker. “It represents black

people in the let century, with a
future that is more scientific and
more technical."

Other people who worked on the
project with Walker had similar ide-
as about the effect.

“I think it's very positive for kids
to have something that reflects on
them and gives them a good feeling
about themselves,” said Ricardo
Nazario-Colon, a UK student “It
might inspire people to try and find
out a little more about those imag-
es."

But to bring his artistic vision to
bear Walker needed the help of sev-
eral people from the neighborhood.
At first he was kind of skeptical be-
cause the fence had frequently been
covered by graffiti.

“There was this one kid who kept
going by on his bike going ‘they're

_onna’ f--- it u-‘ and he ke ridin

by." Walker said. “But by the end
the people who had been dring the
graffiti were the same ones who
were helping me with it."

Walks estimated that about 15
neighbrxhood kids helped him with
theproject.

"I‘hefirstfewdayslwastherea
lotofkidswouldcomebyand
watch," he said. "l‘hen a couple of
them got brave enough to ask if
they could help."

He gave them simple jobs like
showing them where to paint back-
ground on the panels. Initially
Walker thought this would turn out
to be a bad idea.

“It was a disaster at first. I took
me the entire next day to decipher
what they had put up on the wall, ”
Walker said.

The once skeptical neighborhood
has accepted and even cheered the
project.

“It’s something black kids can
take part in, a hands-on experi-
ence,” said Toni Brown, a UK so-
cial work senior whose two children
worked on the fence. “It gives them
some history they may not get in
school. It's very positive and they
can take pride in it."

Colon noticed how quickly the
neighborhood people warmed to the

ject.

"In the two days I was there we
had a lot of people go by and ap-
plaud and things like that.” he said.

The applause shows an accep-
tance of the work and the more the
neighborhood supports it, the longer
its going to stay up, Walker said.
Walker, who has a one-man show at
the Northside branch of the Lexing-
ton Public Library and is part of an
exhibit at the Lexington Art
League, wants the neighborhood to
respect the mural.

“What happened was that kids
(who) worked on the fence claimed
it as their own and then they’d go
through there with their parents and
show them the section they worked
on," Walker said. “Hopefully
they’ll respect it."

Brown thinks Walker did a good
job in managing the kids that
worked on the fence.

“Frank was great with them be-
cause he was patient and he would
explain to them who the people

were up on the fence,” she said.

But what will people take from
the mural? Colon has his own idea.

“Some people might see it as a
black mural and some might see it
as a work of art and forget the con-
tent." he said. “I think it has an ele-

ment of both.”

Women soccer players get chance to play their sport at UK

By ROBIN HALL
Contributing Writer

For years now, UK's athletics has
been known for its basketball and
football teams.

But Mike Joy. UK’s women‘s
soccer coach. said he would like his
program to start making a few
waves of its own on campus.

“I was a youth soccer coach in
Lexington when I had the idea
about getting a women’s program
started at UK," Joy said. “The ath-
letic department felt that it would be
worth giw'ng it (women's soccer) a
try," he said.

So he did.

And soon women soccer players,
deprived of a chance to play their
spon. were springing from the
woodwork.

“At the end of last spring, I had
kind of heard rumors that there
might be a team formed," junior
Kim Smith said. “I saw an ad in the
Kernel and decided to give it a try.”

Women‘s soccer at UK is not a
varsity sport as of yet, but loy said
he thinks that that day is coming
soon.

The significance of becoming a
varsity sport is economically relat-
ed. Varsity sports are fully funded
by the University, whereas club
sports, like women’s soccer, only
receive matching funds for whatev-
er money the clubs can raise on

their own

“Women’ s soccer is growing very
fast,” Joy said. “It is a team sport.
and I think that women are team
players."

Junior Shelly Braum said she is
optimistic about her team's ability.

“The team looks really promis-
ing," Braum, the team’s captain,
said. “I think we will play well to-
gether.”

Sophomore halfback Karen Heard
is another player who is sold on her
team‘s ability.

“I think we have a lot of skilled
players and we‘re coming together
real well,” she said. “Once we get
used to playing with each other. i
think we’ll have an excellent team."

Joy‘s players will need all the
team spirit they can muster, because
their first three opponents are Divi-
sion 1 varsity teams.

“It’s hard to judge on how some
of the teams we play will do,” Smith
said. “A lot of teams we play might
be clubs. but they have been togeth-
er for a while. The teams out of state
are much better.”

Joy is realistic about what place
he thinks women's soccer will hold
at UK, but his hopes remain high.

“I don’t think we‘ll ever be as big
as basketball, but as far as most
sports go, I think women‘s soccer
will do very well,” Joy said. “How-
ever, I would like to see soccer in
general get to be at least third."

Soccer player Gina Bilek. an advertising major from Oldham County, Ky., lunges to avert a score during yesterday's practice. Bilek, the

team's starting goalie will be counted on this season to stop many more. The team was started by Mike Joy, who is now serves as its coach.

Hold your horses, UK football wagon is still rolling

Hold your horses. Wait just a
minute. Relax.

Don’t go jumping off the UK
bandwagon just yet. We lost to Rut-
gers, the mighty Scarlet Knights,
right? It’s another season of medio-
cre football in Lexington, right?

Well, before you jump to those
conclusions, take into account a few
of the facts.

- Kentucky held off Central
Michigan in the first week 20-17.
The Chippewas, who are always
contenders in the Mid American
Conference, beat Cincinnati 34—0
last week. Keep an eye on the Chip-
pewas — they're not as bad as eve-
rybody thinks.

- Kentucky‘s defense held Rut»
gers to 24 points despite eight UK
turnovers. Rutgers had the ball for

more than 36 minutes compared to
about 23 for UK. One of Rutgers‘
scores came on an interception re-
turn. as well.

- Kentucky has outscored its op-
ponents 24-6 in the second half so
far. Has Bill Curry installed a confi-
dence in his team in the clutch‘.’

- Kentucky‘s offense was anemic
at best against the Scarlet Knights.
but first-year Rutgers coach Doug
Giaber was a secondary coach and a
defensive coordinator in the NFL.

The fact is, Rutgers appears to have
a solid Division l defense.

I was fortunate, or unfortunate,
enough to watch Kentucky on pay-
pcr-view. The only satisfying thing I
saw in The Meadowlands was the
play of the defense.

No matter how well the defense
played, Notre Dame would have a
tough time beating Slippery Rock
with eight turnovers. The problem is
clear cut. it’s the offensive line.

Granted, starting quarterback
Freddie Maggard and reserve Brad
Smith threw six interceptions Satur-
day. Although the line can’t be
blamed for all of them, Maggard and
Smith seldom had time to set up in
the pocket.

We hate to keep bringing this up,
but the loss of Mike Nord appears to

Nord's dismissal has put a flaw in
the Big Blue’s offense.

Does this mean Curry regrets
dismissing him? Not on your life,
but the fact is the offensive line is
going to have to improve quickly
