Welcome to the Bluegrass: Washington and Lee University
professor to assume top post in UK College of Law

By John Wampler
SPECIAL SECIlONS EDlTOR

Allan Vestal. associate dean of Wash-
ington and Lee University's College of Law
in Lexington. Va.. has plans to change his
residence to Lexington. Ky.

Vestal recently accepted l'K's offer of

the position of Dean of the College of Law.
which was announced in a memorandum
from Chancellor Elizabeth Zinser on

\t'ednesday. said Eugene (loetke. acting
dean of UK's College of Law.

\‘estal‘s appointment is conditional
upon the decision of the Board of Trustees.
but Goetke doesn‘t anticipate him being
denied the position.

“He is. by all accounts. a popular and
effective teacher at Washington and Lee."
(loetke said.

The College of Law had been looking
for a new dean for two years. (ioetkc said
that it is not unusual among law schools to

spend more than a year searching for a
new dean.

\'estal's energy and personality were
factors that made him stand out when he
was being interviewed for the position
along with other potential candidates.
Goetke said.

"People found him to be someone they
thought would be good to work with and
for." he said.

Vestal is equally excited to be given
the opportunity to work with the individu-
als in the college.

“The l'K College of Law has a very
strong and welliknown faculty." Vestal
said.

President Nixon, 1973.
after he has delivered
a nationwide television
address dealing with
Watergate.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Richard Nixon boards a helicopter after resigning from the presiden-
cy on August 9. I974. Nixon was the country's 37th president.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Hear Richard Nixon like you‘ve nev-
er heard him before.

On Friday. The National Archives
will begin distributing cassettes of the
president's once—secret tapes . at $18 a
pop.

Warning: The government has deter-
mined that these tapes contain language
some people might find offensive.

For years. Americans have read
transcripts of the Nixon tapes salty
language and all. Unless they traveled to
the archives in College Park. Md. they
couldn't listen to the tapes. Copying was
prohibited. So, besides a few bootleg
tapes illegally broadcast years ago and
snippets of recordings played in court.
the Nixon tapes have not been publicly
aired.

Now. 26 years after Nixon resigned.
the public will hear Nixon‘s baritone
voice on television and radio. Students
will listen to him in class. Historians.
Nixon buffs. journalists and writers
around the nation will play and replay
their own Nixon tapes at home. or

maybe in the car.

They'll hear the famous "smoking
gun" conversation about Watergate that
led to Nixon's resignation. They'll listen
to the infamous tape erasure a full 18
1'2 minutes of buzzes and clicks. They'll
hear the chat between Nixon and former
White House counsel John Dean. who
tells the president: “We have a cancer
within close to the presidency that‘s
growing."

“I certainly think the American pub
be has a right to hear this material.
Those tapes are what resulted in Richard
Nixon resigning from office. And while
they know the content. they really sound
much different than they read." said
Dean. now an investment banker in Bev-
erly Hills. Calif.

“Nixon kinda growls." he said.

Dean’s voice also can be heard on
tape.

“()bviously. there‘s some stuff on
there that I find embarrassing with hind-
sight." said Dean. who was in his 30s
during Watergate. “I was young. awed by
the presidency for a long time and I
would approach it much differently to-
day than I did back then."

 

 

What tapes can
be purchased?

Available are 264 hours of tapes. These
include 12 1/2 hours played in court during
Watergate criminal trials: 47 IR additional
hours subpoenaed by the Watergate Special

Prosecution Force; and 204 hours of "abuse
of government power" tapes about the
break-in, cover-up and wrongdoings by the
White House.

To order tapes:

Contact the Cutting Corp.. 4940 Hampden
Lane, Bethesda, Md. 20814. (301) 654-2887.

Cost:

The tapes are available for Sl8 for each 30-
minute recording. The complete set is $702.
Transcripts, which are available for some
tapes, finding aids and tape logs to help trace
topics of conversation can be copied free off
the National Archives web site www.nara.gov.

Several (lead birds turned up (or down)

ous dead birds on campus.

“Birds need a lot of food. When it gets

“The dead birds I‘ve seen have all been

death in a very short period oftime.”

l'K and l’ayette County dismissed ru-

Students gain better representation in selection of TA's

Glenn, Speaker accomplish campaign goal, hope to improve
quality of teaching assistants by adding another voice

By Tracy Nershaw
Assrsriir nrws EDITOR

The Student Government Association
has received approval to add a student to
the international teaching assistant se-
lection committee.

Increasing student involvement with
the TA selection process was a campaign
goal for SGA President Jimmy Glenn and
Vice President Whitney Speaker.

“This is without a doubt the greatest
accomplishment Student Government

has achieved so far this year." said
Glenn.

Student complaints tuned Glenn and
Speaker in to the problem.

“I feel that one of the students‘ great-
est complaints in regard to the teaching
quality at this university is not being
able to communicate with or understand
their international TA." said Julia
Sander. executive director of academic
affairs.

The Teaching and Learning Center
gave SGA approval to add the student to
the committee.

The StlA appointed student will join
the current thr'eeper‘son committee.
which includes representatives from the
English as a Second Language program.
the candidates‘ graduate program. as
well as a student employee of the Teach
ing and Learning Center.

Jan Schach. director of the Teaching
and Learning (‘enter and associate dean
of undergraduate studies. explained the
international TA screening process.

“Basically. every international TA is
required to undergo language testing.
There are three tests which include
teaching a If) mirrnte mock lecture. read-
ing from a prepared script and handling
a fictitious situation with the student
representative." Schach said.

The mock situation with the student

 

 

allows the comrrrrttei- to st‘f‘ how well the
candidate can ('()I1\'l‘I\I' in English. Schach
said.

Students who how had trouble com
rrrurricatirrg with an rnterrmtional 'I‘.»\ are
glad to have more power in the selection
process.

“A lot of students were excited when
we told them that students would have an
increased voice in who would be teaching
next semester." said SGA President Jim
my (llcnn.

Whether the additional student will
improve the selection process is (iliTlt‘llIt
to predict.

”I frankly do not know if it will help.
I think if it makes the student body more
confidant of the process. then it is worth
adding the student." Schach said.

UK gets how-to on wins

 

Music City affair: UK heeds former NBA
standout' 5 words on winning before Vandy

By Matt Ellison

SENIOR STAFF WRITER

An interesting piece of pa»
per was circulating around the
UK locker room prior to
Wednesdays 71-69 win over
()le Miss.

l'K coaches distributed a
copy of an interview with lsiah
Thomas. conducted by lndiana
l'niyersity beat writer Mike
Grant The piece included.
among other things. what
Thomas said to this year's [U
squad during a preseason vis-
it.

"I spoke to them about
winning and losing. and how
it‘s not about how much talent
you have. It's about playing to-
gether as a team." Thomas
said in the interview.

At least one UK player
took the words to heart.

“He (Thomas) said a lot of

things about winning." Saul
Smith said. “Winning doesn't
lust come to anyone who wants
ii. It‘s about who craves win-
ning. Winning comes to those
who go out there and get it
done and work harder."

Smith called Thomas "my
favorite player of all time.“

()ne thing the team ('ontin»
ues to work on is its shooting.

"We've been working pret-
ty hard." Smith said of the
(‘ats‘ perimeter shooting.
“With a young team. you strug-
gle to keep them focused and
into it. Players need to learn
that their competition needs to
raise their level of play.“

“I think it “as lack of lo—

his less-than-stellar. one-of—lt)
shooting. “We got a lead. and
we just kind of
stopped play- 45’
ing. The shots I
weren‘t ‘
falling.“

()ne of
the worst
things the
Cats can do
right now.
according
to their
coach. is to
become hes-
itant. if they
haven‘t gotten
so already.

"1 don‘t
think we're gun-
shy.“ Smith said.

"I keep telling them

to shoot. The only
way you‘re going to
make it is when you
shoot it."

“lt is a bad thing to ,
stop shooting." said
'l‘ayshaun Prince. who .
failed to convert on any
of his four threepoint at-
tempts against ()le Miss.
"We need to keep trying
to get in a rhythm, We
had a really awful perfor-
mance on the perime-
ter. but we just need
to get past it."

Of course.
there‘s always a
way to make up for
a poor shooting per-
formance.

"We know (le-
fense is our back-
bone." Keith Bogans
said. "As long as we have
a great defense. the shots
will start to fall."

l'K now hits

the road for a

 

three game road
swing with a Satur-
day date against Van-
derbilt in Nashville.
Looking past the
Commodores, who
upset Tennessee in
Knoxville earlier in
the season. Smith
says. would be a lapse
in judgment.
"I know we're go-
ing on the road for a
stretch. but we're
» not looking past
Vanderbilt." he
said. “Playing
against them in
Nashville is tough. so
based on the way we
played tonight. we
know that we have to
improve between now
and then.“

Bach's vital organ

Ashley York

CONTRIBUTING IRIIER

When people think of UK. basketball.
football and horses tend to come to mind.
Despite these conceptions. UK has more
to offer than just a good basketball team
and fast horses.

In fact. Dr. Schuyler Robinson. organ-
ist and professor of music. said a hidden
secret of UK lies within the Singletary
Center for the Arts.

The organ in the Singletary Center
stands as one of the best kept secrets in
the region because not many people real-
ize it is one of the most outstanding or-
gans in five states.

“The ‘secret‘ pipe organ is famous for
its style. and interesting because Bach
wrote music for this type of instrument.“
he said. "This organ is bigger than the
one Bach played on.“

This Sunday. Robinson and his col-
leagues in the school of music will un-
leash the secret of the organ at an All—
Bach Faculty Organ Recital performed in
commemoration of the 250th anniversary
of legendary composer Johann Sebastian
Bach‘s death.

Robinson said Bach was one of the
greatest organists of all time.

"I try to include Bach in all primary
recitals because he was the best composer
for the organ who ever lived." he said.
“This year is a landmark year. but every
year is a Bach celebration year."

The concert will feature differing

jIRlEBERi

styles and will include many of Bach‘s
greatest works. Robinson said.

“Many of the songs have been heard
in commercials and also used in movie
soundtracks." Robinson said.

The organ is one of the oldest instru~
ments. with roots in the eighth century.

“The organ. before the Industrial
Age. was the most complicated mecha-
nism known to mankind." he said.

The recital consists entirely of faculty
and Robinson said the performers see the
recital as a chance to research.

“Playing a faculty recital is like
someone writing an article or doing re-
search in publication.“ he said.

A seasoned performer. Robinson
has performed in solo recitals in West-
minster Abbey. Washington National
Cathedral. St. Paul Cathedral in London.
England and also in Germany.

While performing in Germany.
Robinson performed on an organ once
graced by the presence of Bach and that
still had the original pipe work.

Joan Shropshire. marketing director
in the College of Fine Arts. said the fac-
ulty performs a recital every year.

“It's not to leave students out. When
students get advanced degrees they per-
form a concert.“ Shropshire said

Shropshire also commented on
the school of music’s successes. say-
ing this event is one of the many
events hosted by the department.

”The school ofmusic is active and they
do things all over. not just in Ken-
tucky.“ she said.

Clubs
carting
around laws

FORT VALLEY. Ga. (AP) "

A nude dancing club
has found a clever
way to skirt a Peach
County ordinance
banning the sale of
alcohol at Such
establishments.
Customers pay a $7
cover charge at the
Neon Cowboy, which
offers patrons an
eyeful of nude
dancers, but no
alcohol. If a patron
wants a beer. he
simply tells security.
He is then whisked in a
golf cart over 1,000
feet east to Boss
Hawgs Il Bikini Co.,

where waitresses are
clad in bikinis but the

beer flows freely.

The golf cart ride is free

and there's no cover
charge at Boss
Hawgs.

“We have a nice
arrangement worked
out here, and
everybody's
benefiting from it,"
Boss Hawg's owner
Romany Lawson said
Tuesday.

Neon Cowboy opened in
l994 featuring nude
dancers, beer and
wine. Peach County
soon enacted an
ordinance making
that illegal. The
county and the club
have been in court
battles ever since.

Baseball
pretender
discovered
by children

PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP)
- Christopher
Michael Camp was
able to convince
elementary school
officials he was a
pitcher for the
Florida Marlins, but

he struck out in front

of the kids.

Camp told Hutchinson
Beach Elementary
School officials his
name was Bill Jones
and offered to bring

his teammates to the

to
talk
to the
schoofs
third-, fourth-
and fifth-grade
students.
When he showed up to
the Jan. 7 assembly
by himself and
couldn't answer
many youngsters'
questions about

professional baseball

or the Marlins.
administrators got
suspicious.

"He seemed a little

dense, but you know,

that's not unusual
with some
ballplayers."
principal Joel
Armstrong said.

Armstrong found a team

roster on the
Internet and also
called the Marlins to
determine if Camp
was an impostor.
Police said Camp was
just looking for a
little attention and
was bored with his
life. They issued a

trespass warning, but

didn't charge him
with a crime.

"He's a good kid," his
mother. Linda Camp,

said Wednesday. "He

is going through a
divorce. He’s just a
confused 21-year-
old.”

One bright spot for the
duped pupils: the
Marlins say they'll
live up to the
impostor's promises
of treats.

"We feel bad for the

kids, and we're going
to send autographed

jerseys and
autographed
baseballs," said Dan
Vanima, director of
team security.
