legs in the air, the per-
son died in battle; it the
horse has one front leg
in the air. the person
died as a result of
wounds received in bat-

four legs on the ground.
the person died of natur-

Fraternity to launch drive for hunger

Lambda Chi chapters across country, Canada to
participate drive that fights hunger

IyJohllalplof

STAFF WRITER

Thanks to the efforts of
Lambda Chi Alpha chapters
across the United States and
Canada, thousands of people will
not go hungry this year.

On Nov. 7, more than 200
Lambda Chi Alpha chapters will
participate in the sixth annual
North American Food Drive, the
largest single-day philanthropic
act supported by a fraternity. The
drive’s goal is to raise one million
pounds of food to feed the hungry.

Hit parade

In the past. there has been no
problem reaching this goal. Last
year's total was 1,127,845 pounds.
equivalent to more than 3,384,000
meals. The chapter that collects
the most food will receive a $2.000
grant to sponsor members who
will attend the 1999 Lambda Chi
Alpha Leadership Seminar in
Bowling Green. Ohio. Additional
awards will be given to chapters
for outstanding efforts in food col.
lection and chapter improvement.

UK’s chapter raised nearly
5,000 pounds last year, said James
Wray. vice president of Lambda

“It’s worth it, at the
end of the day, seeing
what a difference

you made.”

- Jeff Lenherger, accounting senior and
Lamda Chi Alpha member

Chi Alpha. Its goal this year is to
reach 7,000 pounds. Nearly all of
the 80 men in the chapter will be
involved.

This Saturday. Lambda Chi
will go around the city and drop
off collection bags provided by
Kroger. along with a note ex-
plaining what the drive is, and
asking for donations of cans and

 

dry goods. Wray said with only
about 80 men, and only 20 to 2.3
cars, it is hard to cover all of liex
ington. but they try to hit all they
can. They also ask local business-
es for support. While few compa
nies actually donate food directly.
a number of them donate money.
which the fraternity uses to buy
additional food.

On the day of the drive. the
members will collect the bags and
deliver them to God‘s Pantry. a
local charity that collects food for
the hungry.

“The cool thing about it (the
drive) is at the end of the day, see-
ing the huge truck. and seeing
how much there is, and knowing

what it's going for." said Jeff

Lenberger, an accounting senior

and member of Lambda Chi. “It’s
worth it, at the end of the day, see-
ing what a difference you made."

Wray said while it had not set
up collection boxes around cam‘
pus. any students who wish to
contribute to the drive could bring
canned goods and nonperishables
to the Lambda Chi house near
University Drive. where they‘ll
have a collection box outside.

Andy L. Longo. director of
chapter services for the fraterni-
ty. said. "With the advent of the
North American Food Drive. we
have been able to bring all of our
chapters together to confront a
serious problem while displaying
the positive impact that fraterni‘
ties can have on their local com-
munities.“

Wideout Quentin McCord sprains ankle, out
until season finale against Tennessee game

By Aaron Sanderford
SPORTSDAILY EDITOR

The mental cost of a close
home loss to Georgia Saturday
was steep enough. but it seems
fate had one last laugh in mind.

Although UK (5-3 overall. 2-3).
Southeastern Conference) won
the physical battle in the trench-
es. the list of wounded Wildcats
gained some important names.
The most devastating loss could
be that of sophomore wide re-
ceiver Quentin McCord.

McCord severely sprained
his ankle in the first half
against the Bulldogs and never
returned. The speedy counter-
part of Craig Yeast is now side-
lined for up to three weeks.
head coach Hal Mumme said
yesterday. and that could spell
trouble. even for one of the na-
tion‘s deepest receiving corps,

Mumme said McCord will
likely be replaced by one ofthree
receivers: freshman Michael
Beirne. who will move up from
the junior varsity team; sopho-
more Jermaine White. who lost
playing time to Mcl‘ord. or so»
nior Lance Mickelsen. who has
seen his role diminish since last
season. Mumme set no timetable
for a decision.

UK reserve cornerhack
Kenneth Grant also appears to
have re-broken the same hand
that kept him out of action ear»
her this season. he said.

said starters

Jonas Liening and Jeremy

Streck sustained only bad
strains and bruises. Although
they will probably be kept out
of action this week in practice.
Mumme said he expects both to
be back next week.

The news was not so good
for reserve sophomore line-
backer Gus Jacobs: Jacobs in-
jured his knee against Georgia.
and will probably have surgery
soon to repair any damage.

Another bit of bad news
came yesterday when Mumme
said the injured toe of UK fresh
m.m safety David Johnson does
not look to be healing properly.
Although Johnson has sat out
practice for more than a week.
Mumme said the starter was
hampered by an injury that
might not heal this season and
could keep him out of the lineup.

Otherwise. Mumme's sec-
ond look at l'K‘s 28-26 loss to
Georgia proved quite positive.

WASHINGTON — Government lawyers plan
to show videotapes Tuesday of hours of Microsofi
Chairman Bill Gates’ pretrial depositions, then
to release the tape to television stations as evi-
dence in the case.

In the tapes, Gates discusses his fears that In-
ternet software by rival Netscape Communica-
tions Corp., coupled with a new programming
language called Java that doesn't require Win-
dows, threatens his lucrative Windows operating
system.

The government contends he illegally offered
to divide the Internet software market with an
allout campaign to crush Netscape with its Win-
dows software.

WASHINGTON — Girding for a confronta-
tion with Jewish settlers back home, Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he
will not drop his opposition to a Palestinian
state. The West Bank, he says, “is part of my
homeland."

Netanyahu said a Palestinian state would
expose Israel to a greater threat from Iran and
Iraq. He repeated the assertion yesterday on
CNN‘s “Late Edition”: “Tiny Israel would have
to protect itself against (Iraq’s) Saddam Hus-
sein, against Iran, against all these assorted
powers to our east, which would have more
weaponry than NATO did at the height of the
Cold War."

Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat said an in-
dependent Palestinian state “is coming very
soon.“

lntemal Hestitian clash kills one

RAMALLAH. West Bank — In a major rup-
ture within the ranks of the Palestinian leader-
ship, members of Yasser Arafat’s political faction
fought Palestinian security forces yesterday. A
teenager died in the violence.

The fighting followed an attempt by Palestin-
ian military intelligence to seize unlicensed
weapons and inspect files belonging to Arafat's
Fatah faction. A crackdown on illegal arms was
among tough new security measures Arafat
agreed to at last week’s Israeli-Palestinian sum-
mit.

Palestinian leaders fear the pressures of
putting the U.S.-brokered agreement into effect
will wind up pitting Palestinian against Palestin-
ian.

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Packing 145 mph
winds, Hurricane Mitch was threatening Ja—
maica, the Cayman Islands, Cuba, Honduras and
Colombia’s tiny islands off Central America yes-

cancel services, flooded streets in the Jamaican
capital of Kingston and sent residents scurrying
for provisions. This afternoon, Mitch was about
190 miles south-southwest of Grand Cayman.
Crawling west-northwest at 8 mph, its hurricane-
force winds of at least 74 mph extended 70 miles
from the center.

NEW YORK — ABC, CBS and NBC have ap-
proached officials at CNN —— the cable network
they all sneered at nearly 20 years ago —~ to ex-
plore ways of joining forces to cover news out-

imminent, mostly because of the thorny issues
involved in cooperating with a fierce competitor.
But the talks alone illustrate how interest in
overseas news has flagged and the business land-
scape changed for television.

NCAA: Athletes
OK to work

.1 In PM
commune mm

UK quarterback Tim
Couch and basketball forward

Scott Padgett won’t be flip-
ping burgers or asking,
“Would you like fries with
that?” anytime soon.

But they could if they
wanted to, thanks to the much-
debated NCAA work policy
rule that took effect Aug. 1.

The new rule says college
athletes can have the opportu-
nity to earn extra cash by get-
ting a job, and still play the
sport they love. Full-scholar-
ship athletes have never been
able to work before, except
during vacations.

The rule has placed these
athletes on a more even play‘
ing field with “ordinary” stu-
dents, but student-athletes and
their possible employers must
follow a few guidelines first:
Athletes cannot receive any
additional pay for their public-
ity status, employers cannot
exploit the athletes via promo-
tional stunts, employers must
not pay athletes for work they
do not perform and athletes
must be treated just like any
other employee — even those
who can’t dunk.

UK has established a pro-
gram that helps student-ath-
letes take advantage of the
new regulation, while remain-
ing in compliance with the
NCAA guidelines.

But many student-athletes
aren’t taking advantage of this
new program at all, said C.M.
Newton, UK athletics director.
He said it’s really too early to
tell how the program will de-
velop.

“We’ve got very few stu-
dent-athletes that are involved
in work just because of the de-
mands of academics and ath-
letics combined,” Newton
said. “We don’t have a lot of
students who have opted to
work at this point, but we’ll

see how it goes.”

The rule says full-scholar-
ship athletes can now earn up
to $2,000 during the academic
year, not counting vacation pe-
riods, said Alvis Johnson, as-
sistant athletics director, who
oversees the work program.

Interested students must
be in good academic standing
and be enrolled in school for
at least a year. The regulation
came as a result of the NCAA
seeing a need for some stu-
dent-athletes to be able to have
extra spending money, John-
son said. The rule also states
that partial-scholarship ath-
letes can earn up to $2,000
above the cost of a full scholar-
ship at their school, he said.

“It's going real good so far,”
Johnson said. “When the
grades come out for the first se
mester, we’ll know for sure. But
right now, there will be some
kids mature enough to handle it
and some who are not.”

All student-athletes who
decide to work must be
cleared by their coach, their
parents, Bob Bradley, the
director of the Center for
Academic and Tutorial Ser-
vices; Sandy Bell, the athlet‘
ics department's director for
compliance; and by Johnson.
If they can’t find a job on
their own, the University,
boosters or even the coaches
can find one for them, But
ultimately, UK must OK it.

The students’ employers
must also sign a release form
allowing surprise checkups
and periodic phone calls from
Johnson and his assistant,
Shannon Broughton.

“I actually go by the work-
place to check with their su-
pervisors to see how they’re
doing,” Broughton said.
“We’ve gotten excellent com-
ments so far.”

So far, about 10 students
have checked into the pro-
gram and have completed all
the paperwork.

MSU prez: I’ll
Sign petition

Document a sign of president's
commitment to discuss diversity

By Melissa Burden
and Jennifer Heese
THE STATE HE'S

EAST LANSING,
Mich. —— Students who
support affirmative action
confronted MSU Presi-
dent M. Peter McPherson
Thursday, attempting to
obtain his signature on an
affirmative action petition
and discuss other minori-
ty issues.

At about 1:45 pm,
more than 100 students
crowded into the fourth
floor board room in the
Administration Building
after attempting to meet
McPherson in his office.

McPherson addressed
the group. composed main-
ly of minorities, which had
gone to his office after
meeting at the rock on
Farm Lane at 1 pm. for a
discussion on affirmative
action.

Students asked
McPherson to sign a pe-
tition, which they plan
to send to an affirmative
action board in Califor-
nia and possibly to Con-
gress.

After about an hour
of heated discussion,
which included shouts at

McPherson of “Liar!" and
“Sign the damn petition,”
McPherson agreed to sign
the document.

“I do support affirma-
tive action, I do not sup-
port quotas — I want to be
clear about that,"
McPherson said as he
signed the petition.

Nekesha Bell, a po-
litical science sopho-
more who helped orga-
nize the event, said peo-
pie from other universi-
ties across the country,
including the University
of Michigan, University
of Texas and University
of California at Los An~
geles, had been walking
out the last few days in
support of affirmative
action.

Five people from dif-
ferent campus groups or-
ganized the demonstra—
tion late Wednesday.

Bell said a ban on af-
firmative action would
be detrimental not only
to racial minorities, but
to women and other mi-
norities.

Many students were
upset about the time it
took McPherson to sign
the petition and com-
plained that he didn’t

answer their questions
in a straightforward
manner.

“We wanted answers,
we wanted things to be
answered." Bell said.
“What we got were, I be-
lieve, empty promises,
round-about answers, per-
sonal narratives.”

But kinesiology fresh-
man Nicole Salazar said
McPherson made a good
attempt to communicate
with the students.

“I thought a couple of
people were out of line,"
Salazar said. “I thought
he was being respectful to
us."

Spanish sophomore
Esmeralda Perez. a mem-
ber of Movimiento Estudi-
antil Xicano de Aztlan,
said she thought McPher-
son should have signed
the petition early on.

She referred to a
pamphlet from the Office
of Minority Student Af-
fairs that states every
student group on campus
should be supported by
MSU.

“We want him to
support this. too. He’s
our president. If he truly
believes (the pamphlet‘s
contents) then he should
have signed that in the
first five minutes that
we were here," Perez
said.

D.C. police
crack down

Georgetown students arrested
in stinq operation on drinking

THE HOTA

WASHINGTON —— During September,
D.C. Metropolitan police stepped up efforts
against underage drinking in Georgetown, re-
sulting in 53 arrests in a two-week period.

The police targeted local bars, restaurants
and liquor stores, as well as Georgetown
house parties. One weekend, more than half of
those arrested were Georgetown students. The
arrests took place over the weekends of Sept.
18 and Sept. 25.

Lt. Patrick Burke of the 2nd District Po-
lice characterized the sweep as part of “a mas-
sive underage anti-drinking campaign."

During the sweep, Georgetown University
students, local bartenders and merchants
were arrested and jailed and might face fines
of up to $1500, Burke said.

Lt. Joseph Trippi, who is in charge of
vice in the 2nd District, said, “We are hitting
everything from ABC establishments (bars)
to underage drinkers themselves."

Trippi said, “The 2nd District has always
taken underage drinking seriously" and that
“the vice unit has always made a few arrests a
month.”

The police are releasing many of the de»
tails now to “get out the message that we are
cracking down and taking underage drinking
seriously." he said.

The majority of the arrests were minors,
defined by law as people under 21, who were
charged with underage drinking.

During the weekend of Sept. 18 and 19, 12
of the 23 people arrested were Georgetown stu-
dents.

The police also arrested four people dur-
ing the sweep for selling alcohol to minors.

Students lead
teach-in protest

UC-Berkeley faculty, students continue
staunch support for affirmative action

By Daniel Hernandez

DAILY CALIFORNIAH

BERKELEY, Calif. -—~ UC-
Berkeley students and faculty
participated in a UC-wide walk-
out last Thursday in support of
affirmative action, with a full
day of student-led teach-ins on
Lower Sproul Plaza.

In addition to about 30
scheduled teach-ins that took
place, several professors and
campus groups held on-the-spot
teach-ins on topics ranging
from the importance of diversi-
ty to affirmative action.

“Students have been walk-
ing by, stopping, sitting and
participating in the teach-ins,"
said Suzette Spencer, a gradu-
ate student and member of the
African American and Ethnic
Studies Cooperative. “People
are beginning to catch on and
understand that the walkout
was not just an empty gesture.”

Ethnic Studies Professor
Carlos Munoz held a teach-in
with more than 200 students,
and the School of Public Policy
held a teach-in with nearly 150
students, Spencer said.

After last Wednesday’s ral-
ly on Sproul Plaza. many stu-
dents initiated spontaneous
teach-ins that lasted well into
the night, Spencer added.

“That’s what it's all about,”
she said. “Centering the energy
of the rally through dialogue.
Lots of people don’t necessarily
know what the issues are and
the teach-ins are giving space
for students to engage in mean-
ingful dialogue."

Preston Taylor, who just
became interim ASUC presi-
dent, was largely responsible
for organizing the events and
said he was very happy with
the large turnout of students

who came together to partici-
pate and learn from the teach-
ms.

Noting the many students
who walked past the teach-ins,
Taylor said the decision to par-
ticipate is left to each individ-
ual student.

“We’ve tried to make it
inviting, but a lot of students
may feel uncomfortable (in) ap-
proaching a circle of people or
may be too shy to come up and
ask a question that has been on
their minds," he said.

Many students and profes-
sors, including graduate stu-
dent Chaitee Sengupta, said
they felt indifferent or unclear
of the walkout events. Sengupta
said she felt the “anti-people
and the pro-people” are out-
numbered by the “ambivalent
people.”

“I think most people are in
favor of affirmative action, but
as far as the tactics go, we are
ambivalent,” Sengupta said.

Italian Studies Professor
Kathryn Warrener, who sat
studying a book near the teach-
ins yesterday, said not every-
body was fully aware of what
was going on.

“I honestly don’t know too
much about it." she said. “But
it looks like there's a lot of par-
ticipation. It’s a big university.
There could be a lot of students
who don’t support it and are
not participating."

In spite of some ambiva-
lent sentiment within the UC-
Berkeley community, many
professors said they recog-
nized the importance of the
walkout.

Some professors said they
did not take attendance for
many of their classes on both
days.
