Sixty years of modern dance comes
together Saturday for Spring Concert

By Lori Mercado
CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Six generations of style,
movement and dance will
culminate on one stage this
Saturday in celebration of
the 60 years of modern
dance at UK.

The UK Dance Ensem‘
ble‘s Spring Concert will be
held in the Singletary Center
for the Fine Arts Recital Hall
at 8 pm. The concert is bi-an-
nual: however. as it marks
the 60th anniversary of dance
at UK. the event will assume
a spirit unique to the genera-
tions spanning the years.

“I think the show will be
varied. There will be some-
thing for everyone, from
comical pieces and modern
dance. to jazz and swing."
said Kimberly Martin. an
art studio senior and presi-
dent of the ensemble.

The eight pieces are
choreographed by students,
with the exception of two:
And The Band Played On. a
tribute to the 19405 choreo-
graphed by guest artist Ray-
mond Van Mason, and
Decades By Two. choreo-
graphed by Ensemble Direc-

tor Dr. Rayma Beal.

Martin's piece, Tell A
Vision. explores humor.

“I believe that a smile is
the only universal language,
so why not develop the idea
further into a medium that
explores the body as a com-
municator," Matin said.

Geek choreographed by
Anne Boock, incorporates
swing with jazz style move-
ment. Boock said choreo-
graphing her first piece with
the Ensemble was “an incred-
ibly rewarding experience."

Another piece, Decades
By Two. choreographed by
Beal. is an intergenerational
dance. Six officers of the
Dance Ensemble will be
paired with six alumni, each
representing a different
decade and technical style.

It’s the connection be-
tween these dancers over
the years that makes this
concert special. Beal said.

Mary King Montgomery
Kouns. 88. will represent the
19405 generation. Kouns‘ dis-
sertation project was on
modern dance. and she orga-
nized the first modern dance
concert at UK in 1939.

The dance organizations

 

have evolved in the last 60
years. changing names and
styles. but the project and
concert instigated the estab-
lishment of dance as a minor.
There are also three dance
scholarships now available.
“If it weren't for
(Kouns). we wouldn‘t be
here. She is the last person
to enter the stage in the
piece. which is a fitting trib-
ute to her for starting the

 

 

modern dance tradition
here." Martin said.

Jennifer Sciantarelli. a
journalism junior, will also
dance in the generational
piece.

“Everybody meshes re-
ally well." she said. “because
we all have that commonali~
ty of dance."

gletary Center Box Office at

WASHINGTON Navy F/A-18 aircraft
bombed an Iraqi anti-ship missile site on the Al
Faw Peninsula yesterday. US. officials said the
site posed “a direct threat” to US. forces in the
Persian Gulf.

Nearly all US. strikes in the “no fly" zone
over southern Iraq in recent months have been
in response to what US. officials call provoca-
tions by Iraq air defense radars or surface-to-
air missile batteries. Yesterday’s trigger was
the repositioning of the anti-ship missile
launchers. according to a spokesman for the
US. Central Command at MacDill Air Force

efforts at reform, it still must “give citizens
greater freedom." But. with Zhu at his side at a
joint news conference. Clinton also stressed that
the two leaders had made progress on trade is-
sues, and he said he hopes obstacles blocking
China's entry into the World Trade Organization
could be cleared away by year‘s end. In his com-
ments, Zhu spoke effusively about Chinese-
American relations. China has been under fire
from Republicans and others for alleged nuclear
spying and campaign finance activities.

Clinton hopes Cypriot can help Gls

WASHINGTON — President Clinton said
yesterday he hoped a Cypriot official on a diplo-
matic mission in Belgrade would be able to se-
cure the release from Yugoslavia of three US.
soldiers. but he suggested there would no negoti-
ation. The Pentagon also said there would be no
pause in NATO airstrikes.

NATO. however, arranged for safe passage
yesterday of a flight by a former president of
Cyprus that was intended to secure the soldiers’
release. But Serbia‘s vice premier said the three
should be tried as terrorists. Vojislav Seselj told
reporters yesterday that freeing the 615 was “out
of the question.“

NJJs Nutman launches Senate bid

TRENTON, N.J. — Republican Gov. Christie
Whitman, a second term governor, yesterday
launched her bid for the US. Senate. Long seen
as a GOP star, Whitman announced the forma-
tion of a fund-raising committee, kicking off an
effort to become New Jersey’s first elected Repub
lican US. senator since the 19703. The seat is cur-
rently headed by Democrat Sen. Frank Lauten-
berg, who is retiring after the 2000 election. A
Whitman run could set up a rematch with former
Democratic Gov. Jim Florio, who she beat in
1993.

Social Security narrows income gap

WASHINGTON — Social Security benefits
significantly help narrow the income disparities
between women and men in old age, according to
a study by the Center for Budget and Policy Pri-
orities. Without monthly Social Security checks,
52.6 percent of women ages 65 and older would be
poor —— with income below $7,698 a year — com-
pared with 40.8 percent of men, the study found.
But with Social Security, 14.7 percent of elderly
women were poor, compared with 8.2 percent of
men —— cutting the old‘age poverty gap between
the sexes to 6.5 percent.

NEW YORK — Stocks surged higher yester-

Three tied for lead at Masters

AUGUSTA, Ga. — A trio of three-under-par

indicates dependency," said
Ruth Staten, a registered
nurse at the College of Nursing
and UK Health Services.

“UK students can also get
an evaluation at the Medical
Center or the Center for Coun-
seling and Testing as part of
the student health fee," she
said.

In an attempt to increase
alcohol awareness, the Com-
mons’ site aired an episode
from CBS’ “48 Hours" that
highlighted problems stem-
ming from alcohol abuse
among society’s youth.

Although this is the first
time for alcohol screening, UK
has been screening candidates
for depression for several
years.

“The two main messages
we want to send out are re-

garding high-risk drinking
and alcohol dependency," Stat-
en said.

High-risk consumption of
alcohol involved heavy drink-
ing, while alcohol dependency
indicated that alcohol was in-
terfering with a person’s goals
and objectives. In both cases,
help was readily available, she
said.

Di Sobel, of the UK Coun-
seling and Testing Services,
said several students felt reluc-
tant to bring up their own a1-
cohol problems in public.

“Many of the people who
came today showed concerns
about friends and family mem-
bers. People are hesitant to
identify that they have a prob-
lem.” she said.

Students wanting more in-
formation about the free,
anonymous alcohol screenings
as well as information about
treatment and support can
contact the Counseling and
Testing Center at 257-8701. The
center is located at 301 Frazee
Hall, next to the Student Cen-
ter.

UK travels to Arkansas this
weekend for a three-game
series with the Razorbacks

By Matt May
SPORTSDAILY EDITOR

A three-game winning streak. Five
wins in their last six games. Momentum on
their side.

The UK baseball team hits the road
this weekend. knowing it needs a strong
performance to remain in the driver’s seat
for an Southeastern Conference Tourna-
ment berth. They also know that while
they’ve got the ingredients for a successful
weekend, they face a formidable opponent.

UK will invade Baum Stadium in Fayet-
teville. Ark.. for a matchup with the Razor-
backs, who are an impressive 23-12 this sea-
son. including a 9-3 conference record.

The Cats currently sit in third place in
the SEC Eastern Division. They hold a one-
game lead on Georgia. whom the Wildcats
took two of three from last weekend. Get-
ting at least one win this weekend would
keep the Cats right in the hunt for its secs
ond-straight SEC Tournament appearance.

To do that. UK must get solid pitching
performances from its three weekend
starters: Ben Shaffar. Brandon Webb and
Nathan Kent. Webb and Shaffar both threw
complete games in the Cats' two wins over
the Bulldogs last weekend and will need
similar outings against an Arkansas team
that hits .305 as a team.

Webb and Shaffar are both sitting at
.500 on the year, with Webb 22 and Shaffar
33, while Kent has struggled a little in post
ing a 1-5 record despite a decent earned run
average (4.88). The Cats will also need
clutch pitching in the late innings from left-
handers Jason Chaney and Breck Price and
righties Omar Henry and Josh Paxton.

That job could be made tough by a team
that doesn’t have a lot of hitters batting
above .300. but has plenty power and ability
to drive in runs. Senior Rodney Nye leads
the team with a .384 average. 42 runs scored.
14 doubles. 11 home runs and 42 runs batted
in. Juniors Joe Jester and Jack Welsh both
have scored over 35 runs, have six homers
and have are 12-of-13 in stolen base attempts.
As a team, Arkansas has nearly 100 doubles.
51 homers and has scored 301 runs.

Almost as imposing as the Razorback
hitting attack are a pair of starting pitchers
who have dominated the opposition this
year. Junior David Walling and freshman

Freshman Aaron Wilson threw a pitch during a game earlier this week. Wilson, who hails from

Charlie Isaacson have been outstanding. as
Isaacson has started seven games. posting a
perfect 4-0 record and a 2.93 ERA. and has
yet to give up a home run. Walling has been
just as stellar. going 5-1 in nine starts, with a
3.81 ERA and 75 strikeouts in just 59 innings.
But lately. UK has also been on a tear. es-
pecially when it comes to hitting. Junior
Aaron McGione has eight round trippers and
25 RBI. while sophomore John Wilson has hit
five homers in his last five games. and now
has 15 total. Junior Breck Price has contin~
ued his year-long hot streak. batting .389.
The Cats have also shown a tendency

for comebacks. as they have either pulled
out wins or gotten back into games late
thanks to full-scale charges. including one
that saw UK erase a 6-4 deficit Wednesday
night to Ohio University in Athens. Ohio.

‘Special K's' terrorizing opponents

 

Kwiatkowski, Kruse running rouqhsod on

By Jonathan Dobson
STAFF WRITER

The UK softball team has
been dishing out a double por-
tion of “Special K" to their op-
position this season.

Unfortunately for the Wild-
cats' future opponents. this of—
fensively-gifted tandem isn‘t go-
ing anywhere anytime soon.

UK outfielders Tiffany
Kruse and Leslie Kwiatkowski
are currently 1-2 at the top of
the Cats’ offensive rankings.
with the sophomore tandem
leading the ballclub in nearly
every offensive category.

Kruse leads the team with a
.383 batting average. 51 hits and
28 RBIs. Kwiatkowski holds the
team highs in runs scored with
30. home runs with 5. in total
bases with 72. and is one behind
Kruse for the RBI lead with 27.

Shoulder problems forced

Kruse to redshirt her freshman
year in 1997. What was initially
supposed to be a layoff of only a
few weeks turned out to be
much longer.

“When they got into my
shoulder for the (rotatt cuff)
surgery. they noticed that i had a
hole in my labrum. I was going
to be out t‘our-to-sixmonths."
Kruse said. She added that the
time she'd have to be sitting on
the sidelines was the deciding
factor in her decision to redshirt.

Kruse said the the primary
obstacle in her recovery was
the mental aspects of overcom-
ing the injury.

“It was really hard at times."
Kruse said. “I felt like I was let»
ting up. like I wasn‘t going 100
percent as I had before because I
was afraid of re-injuring it.
Coach sat me down. and we were
just talking. She said that ‘one of
these days. you've just got to let

it go. It may not be a conscious
thing that you do. but once you
get over that hill. you‘re going to
be in a place where you can do
everything like you did before
without fear.”

“I think it came within the
last couple weeks of our fall prac»
tice. that I finally got to a point
where I felt like I was OK." she
said. Kruse said that, despite
the pain and rehab. there were
some positives that came from
her injury.

“By redshir’ting that year. I
still got to experience every—
thing the team did. except I
wasn‘t on the field." she said. “I
experienced the highs and lows
of the team in wins and losses."

“1 got to see what college
ball is like before I ever got to
come in and play. I kind of had
an edge over a true freshman."
she added.

Kwiatkowski excels in the
classroom as well as on the dia-
mond. A recent recipient of
WKYT-TV's “Student Athlete of
the Week" award. she says that
she puts a lot of her non-softball

time into the books.

"When I come in from prac-
tice. pretty much all I can do is
study till I go to bed." she said.
“We don‘t have much time for
anything else. I just study a
lot."

Coach Beth Kirchner is
high on the KS.

"They‘re the offensive cata-
lyst for our team. it speaks well
for our future in that were led
offensively by a couple of
sophomores who will be here a
couple of more years."

The Wildcats will host the
Georgia Bulldogs for a double-
header tonight at 6 pm. at the
Soccer/Softball Complex. and
for another twinbill tomorrow
afternoon at Noon.

Kwiatkowski is eager to
play.

“I'm excited about it. be
cause a lot of my family is going
to be here. I always seem to bet-
ter play better when people are
here watching." she said.

“They're expecting to kill
us. but that's not going to hap-
pen this year."

Paying the Bill

Fair pay,

WASHINGTON —
President Clinton
renewed his call
Wednesday for equal
pay for working
women, saying the
country has “the
opportunity of a
generation" to
correct the inequity
during good
economic times.

The president. along
with first lady Hillary
Rodham Clinton and
Labor Secretary
Alexis Herman.
played host to a
roundtable discussion
with four women who
related their battles
to address salary
disputes with
lawsuits as well as
on-the-job diplomacy.
The event was held
to commemorate
Equal Pay Day
yesterday.

“There are still those
who claim that this is
a made-up problem,
that any wage gap
between men and
women can be
explained away by
the choices women
make." Mrs. Clinton
said.

By the
numbers

25

Percent less that women
earn at jobs as
compared to men at
similar jobs.
according to the
president's Council of
Economic Advisers.

42

The percent less that
women earned at
jobs as compared to
men at similar jobs in
1963, when President
John F. Kennedy
signed the original
Equal Pay Act.

2.39

The amount, in millions
of dollars, that a jury
aware Sonya Tyler,
the women's
basketball coach at
Howard University.
Tyler sued the school
under Title IX when
she discovered that
the men's basketball
coach was receiving
four times her salary.

More details

Clinton has requested a
total of $14 million in
government
programs to help
lower the salary gap.

During the speech,
Clinton joked that his
family was one of the
few in which the wife
earned more than the
husband.
