Professor
speaks on

jury process

By CRAIG SCHMI'I'I‘
Contributing Writer

Walter F. Abbott, a UK associate
professor of sociology, spoke Friday
about how lawyers can choose jury
members who will improve their
chances of winning their cases.

In the Peal Gallery of the UK
King Library North, Abbott de-
scribed the significance of his book,
The Analytic Juror Rater, published
last summer, and how it relates to
today‘s legal system.

In his book, Abbott has designed a
method attorneys can use to select
jury members that will improve
their chances of winning their cases.

According to Abbott. everyone is
biased to some degree.

“As soon as the jury goes into de-
liberation, the first decision will be
the same as the last,“ he said. “Ju-
ries tend to vote in the direction of
the majority. It is ideal for both
sides to have the best defense argu-
ment possible.“

Attorneys. Abbott said, need to
“come up with a jury that will at
least listen to both sides.“

By voir dire, the process of jury
selection, and the use of his book,
Abbott said it could be done.

Using “forensic sociology," Abbott
said it is possible to predict a per-
son's level of authoritarianism from
certain characteristics. He has
placed basic demographics, human
characteristics and values, on a
scale, with each receiving a rating
between zero and 100.

The categories include age, sex.
race. occupation and religious affil~
iation. When the scores from each
trait are added up. the sum is that
individual‘s nonauthoritarian rating.

The purpose of the rating, Abbott
said, is that jurors with higher lev-

University officials announced
Friday that UK has received a five-
year $2.75 million grant to establish
a Drug Abuse Prevention Research
Center.

The grant from the National Insti-
tute on Drug Abuse will allow a
team of eight UK professors to study
drug abuse in four research pro-
jects. UK is the only research center
funded by NIDA this year.

The common thread of each re-
search project, according to UK

University of Kentucky. Lexhgton, Kentucky

large grant for

President David Roselle, “is the
goal of determining why people use
drugs and what can be used to make
them stop."

It is “gratifying that UK has been
chosen to take a leadership posi-
tion" in drug abuse research. Rose—
lle said. Drug abuse is not just a
problem of college students, but is
also a problem in the work place.

Richard Clayton, scientific direc-
tor of the center, said that research
will not only look at drug abuse
from one area — such as biology —
but will link several fields together
to understand the problem of drug
abuse.

Specifically, the projects will ex-
amine:

0 The effect of drugs on animal
models in looking at the stimulation
of the brain. The goal of the study is
to determine whether there are safe
alternatives to drugs that would
have similar stimulating effects.

0 A study of drug prevention ef-
forts at elementary schools. The
project will will specifically study
the “Project DARE" program in
which Lexington police officers dis-
cuss drug abuse with sixth grade
students.

- This project will examine the ef-
fectiveness of antidrug messages on

TV. The project wrll study young
adults and look at ways to increase
the effectiveness of the antidrug
messages,

- A study of the prevalence of
drug abuse among minorities. This
project will examine models of pre—
dicting differences of drug use
among blacks. Hispanics and
whites.

Cynthia Robbins, who is the prin-
cipal researcher on the minorities
project, said that even before the

in drug abuse research.

UK‘s position because it will allow

Who’s Who nominees named

By BETH PENNER
Staff Writer

Lances Junior Men's Honorary
has selected its nominees for Who‘s
Who Among American Colleges and
Universities.

Lances chose 45 students from
UK's campus enrollment of 23,000.
The standards for being selected for
Who‘s Who are overall campus in-
volvement, a high grade point aver-
age and contributions to school/com—
munity, said Becky Gilbert, Iances
membership chairman.

“(Who‘s Who is a) nationally rec-
ognized honor for students. only
given to top upperclassmen and
graduate students," Gilbert said. All
students chosen will be listed in a

nationally published Who's Who vol-
ume.

On Oct. 28, Lances hosted a selec-
tion committee. The members con-
sisted of UK students and advisers.
The committee tried to be represen-
tative of the wide array of students
at UK. Gilbert said.

The committee members were
Lynne Hunt, Student Activities
Board president; Brad Dixon, Stu-
dent Government Association exec-
utive vice-president; Bob Clay, di~
rector of residence hall life; Bob
Bradley, a member of the athletic
department. and Mike Palm and
Becky Headly from the dean of stu-
dents office.

The committee nominated people
from their own representative field,

which they thought were outstand-
ing. Members of Lances also make
nominations through clubs and orga-
nizations they are involved with, Gil-
bert said.

Hunt. who is a nominee herself.
said “it‘s great being selected for
Who's Who. Who’s Who is looked at
by colleges and universities across
the country, it’s an honor.

“(Who‘s Who is) a select group of
people with diverse backgrounds
and interests. Your peers and fac-
ulty nominate you. it‘s an honor to
know you‘re respected"

Bill Swinford, CAE chairman and
a member of Farmhouse Fraternity
said. “(I'm) very flattered to be
nominated for Who's Who, it‘s a
high honor."

Cuomo rumors problem for candidates

By DAVID ESPO
Associated Press

WASHINGTON - Persistent spec-
ulation that New York Gov. Mario
Cuomo will be a late entry into the
presidential race is making it diffi-
cult for the six declared Democratic
contenders to expand their own sup-
port, according to a variety of party
officials.

“It kind of muddies the water”
said Bonnie Campbell, chairwoman
of the Democratic party in Iowa,
where the first caucuses will be held
next Febmary.

“If it's his intention not to go
thromh the process but to be avail-
able for a draft. that’s fair game.
But I think it does cause problem

for the candidates who have been
campaigning in Iowa and New
Hampshire and the South and work-
ing very hard,“ she said.

"Yes. he is muddling the field,"
said Joseph Grandmaison, chairman
of the New Hampshire Democratic
party. who added quickly that he be-
lieves Cuomo is doing so inadver-
tently rather than as a strategy to
winthenomination.

Grandmaison added that an un-
usually high percentage of party ac-
tivists remain uncommitted in the
state where the first presidential
primary will be held next winter. He
said that is partly became fa'mer
candidates Gary Hart of Colorado
and Sen. Joseph Biden of Delaware
withdrew from the race earlier in

the year, and partly because of
Cuomo.

Robert Beckel. who was campaign
manager for 1984 Democratic nom-
ninee Walter F. Mondale, agreed
that Cuomo's coyness is hampering
the candidates, but said there is
little they can doabout it.

Cuomo has said he is not a candi-
date and will not enter the primaries
or caucuses where delegates to the
1%8 nominating convention will be
picked. But he also said, ”Of coin'se
I'd do it" if the party told him he
had an “obligation” to accept a
draft.

Most of the candidates say they
are unconcerned by the frequent
speculation about Cuomo's inten-

tions; so far only Jesse Jackson has
expressed irritation.

“If I lose the nomination. I want
to be eliminated by someone who
has played in the same league,“ he
said recently. “There are no acci-
dental drafts."

Ann Lewis. an adviser to Jackson.
said she believes others share that
view.

There‘s no denying the potential
impact that Cuomo has on the race.

Until recently, Cuomo had spoken
warmly of Dukakis‘ candidacy.
without endorsing him.

Then two weeks ago Cuomo made
flattering comments about Simon.
"I feel great, great empathy with
him," the New Yorker said of the II-
linois senator.

people from different disciplines to
do research together, Robbins said.

Clayton said that from the re—
search in the four projects. profes-
sors will take "what we learn
and apply it in the laboratory of
life."

The research projects team will
not be starting from scratch though.
Work on the projects is already un-
derway because money from the
NIDA grant was made available at
the beginning of October. Robbins
said.

UK center
for cancer
gets money

By JACK NYBERG
Contributing Writer

The Lucille Parker Markey Can-
cer Center received an $18.164 dona-
tion on Friday from the Kentucky‘s
Ladies Auxiliary of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars.

For the last 14 years. the Ladies
Auxiliary has been raising money
for cancer research. Alternating its
donations between UK and the L'm-
versity of Louisville. the group this
year presented its biggest donation
to UK and next year will raise
money for L‘ of LS cancer research
effort.

With federal money for medical
research getting harder to receive.
many cancer research idClllilOS
have to look increasingly toward pri-
vate money to fund their programs

UK‘s Markey Cancer Center is no
exception and as federal dollars be-
come scarce, private donations be»
come more precious.

Dr. Thomas Vanaman. chairman
of the biochemistry department.
said that "over the next it) years, in
all probability, we're going to see
substantial losses of federal funding
for all aspects of basic research.

”And in order for us to be able to
keep programs going. we have to be
concerned about finding other
sources. particularly private dona-
tions,"he said

Dr. Gilbert Friedell. director of
the Markey Cancer Center, esti-
mated that in the future. at least 30
percent of the center‘s research
funding will have to come from pri-
vate donations

“In the future funding will have to
come from industry. it'll come from
the public in the form of donations
and we'll have to he inventive ..

U.S.-Soviet treaty

nearly set,

By BARRY SC HWEII)
Associated Press

GENEVA. Switzerland _ Secre-
tary of State George P. Shultz said
yesterday the United States and the
Soviet Union had agreed to station
inspectors at each other's nuclear
missile sites for 10 years after
banned weapons are scrapped.

Shultz arrived yesterday in Gene-
va to try to wrap up a missile trea~
ty. Speaking with reporters on the
plane before it made a refueling
stop in Shannon, Ireland, en route to
Switzerland. Shultz said “some oper-
ational details“ remained to be
worked out.

“The treaty is virtually com-
plete,“ Shultz said. ”All of the main
things have been agreed to.“

The treaty to ban US. and Soviet
intermediate and shorter-range nu-
clear missiles is the designated cen-
terpiece for President Reagan‘s
summit beginning Dec. 7 with Gen
eral Secretary Mikhail S. Gorba~
chev.

The Soviet diplomat arrived in Ge-
neva yesterday. saying in a brief
airport statement he was confident
the treaty will be completed "de-
spite the fact that certain difficult
questions continue to exist. "

Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard A.
Shevardnadze said preparations for
the Reagan-Gorbachev summit also
were in their “most crucial stage.“

Victor Karpov, head of the For-
eign Ministry‘s arms control depart-

Sec.says

ment and former chief arms nego-
tiator in Geneva. was among the
aides accompanying Shevardnadze,

In Moscow, commentator Tomas
Kolesnichenko wrote in Pravda. the
Communist Party daily: “As always
happens in these cases, 'technical‘
problems at the last stage take on
more importance. For that reason.
obviously, there arose the necessity
of a new meeting between Shultz
and Shevardnadze."

Faced with that deadline. Shultz
scheduled meetings today and to-
morrow in Geneva with Shevard-
nadze.

Talking to reporters aboard his
US. Air Force jet before a refueling
stop in Shannon. Shultz said he
planned to seek Soviet support for
an arms embargo agaimt Iran and
a timetable for withdrawal of Soviet
troops from Afghanistan.

The United States has delayed try-
ing to push a weapons cutoff through
the United Nations Security Council
because of concern that the Soviets
might block the move with a veto.

The council approved a ceasefire
in the Iran-Iraq war July 20 with So-
viet support. "It is time to move for-
ward,“ Shultz said.

An arms embargo would be de-
signed to deprive Iran of many of its
weapons and force it to negotiate an
end to the conflict with Iraq, now in
its eighth year.

On Afghanistan, after years of
slow-movirg negotiations thrown

UK losses
painfully
teasing

Only Stephen King could have
written a script as devilish as the
one the UK football team enacted
this fall.

A Wildcat team with high hopes
in September saw them twisted
into a 5-6 record that drips with
frustration.

“We‘ve been short so many
times,“ UK coach Jerry Clai-
borne said. “It’s a disappointing
season to us, our players and our
fans."

The disappointment stems from
the record itself. This team was
too good to suffer a losing season.
But frustration also tears at the
Cats because of how the defeats
came about.

First it was Rutgers. UK head-
ed to New Jersey determined to
make up for last year‘s tie. They
didn’t. The Cats were upset. 19-
18.

UK brushed that aside and
roared back with two more im-
pressive victories. After five
weeks, the Wildcats had four
wins and bowl bids sounded good.

Lousiana State put a damper
on those with a 34-9 victory. But
that wasn‘t so bad. UK wasn’t ex-
pected to win in the bayous any-

way.

What killed the Cats came
seven days later. Once again, UK
was the underdog. But this time
it appeared an upset was brew-
mg.

For 58 minutes, the Wildcats
led the Bulldogs at Georgia. That
was just an evil tease. The Dogs
snatched victory away from UK
with less than two minutes to
play.

UK fell to Georgia, 17-14. The
Cats never got off the floor the
rest of the season.

A lifeless win over Virginia
Tech followed. But then bowl
hopes were shot out of the sky
when Vanderbilt pulled an 38-29
upset. Florida smoked the Cats
with their fifth defeat the next
week.

The LSU game was the only
loss UK could handle. Even that
wasn‘t decided until the second
half. The other four could have
gone either way.

“We had an opportunity to win
everyone one of them," Claiborne
said.

The same wicked act took
place Saturday.

UK led the favored Volunteers
from Tennessee until the fourth
quarter. Trailing 24.20. the Wild-
cats launched one final attack at
a winning season. They took the
ball to the Volunteers’ six-yard
line with the clock ticking down.
First and goal.

“When we got the ball down
there, I didn‘t think they'd stop
us at all,“ UK offensive tackle
Greg Kunkel said. “I just thought
this was going to be great, com-
ing up with a score and a victory
like this."

It never happened.

Four jack-hammer attempts
left UK 12 inches short of a win-
ning season. Mark Higgs hit an
orange wall on fourth down and
was left with his face buried in
the brown grass of Common-
wealth Stadium.

“That sums up the whole sea-
son," Kunkel said.

“it hurts worse‘ UK guard
Dermontti Dawson said. “I‘d
rather be beaten by three or four
touchdowns instead of three or
four points."

The margin of defeat doesn‘t
matter to the fans. lt‘s still a de-
feat. And lately their tolerance
has not been high. Some have
called for Claiborne‘s head. The
players say that is unjustified.

“it's never been Coach's fault
since we‘ve been here," UK cen-
ter Brad Myers said. “if people
knew Coach a little better they
would understand that. It upsets
me that people say thirus about
him.“

Claiborne is taking the heat
with his head held high. it‘s just
part of his business.

“if you‘re not a very thick-
skinned person, you shouldn‘t be
a coach," Claiborne said.

The tough defeats UK suffered
this fall should have made Clai-
borne's skin than ever.
He'll need it. it's going to be a
longwinter.

Although Saturday‘s 24-22 loss to
Tennessee is still fresh on his mind,
UK football coach Jerry Claiborne
has already begun thinking about
next year.

Twenty seniors will be vacating
the football dormitory this spring
and it‘s time to start rebuilding the
ranks.

But Claiborne said he may not be
relying totally on a group of wide-
eyed freshmen to fill the holes.

“We‘re going after some junior
college players," Claiborne said. “A
junior college player is older. he‘s
already played a couple of seasons
and he’s more mature."

Claiborne has good reason to trust
junior college players. The two he
recruited this year. ended up as key
members of the offense.

At the beginning of the football
season, UK quarterback Glenn
Fohr, who transfered from Hudson
Valley Junior College in New Jer-
sey, was playing second fiddle to se-
nior starter Kevin Dooley.

Saturday, however, Dooley never
saw the field. Fohr had taken over.

The 6-foot-2, 205-pound junior
passed for 240 yards and led a 68-
yard charge in the game‘s last min.
ute that came one foot short from
taking the win away from the Vols.

“Fohr did a really good job for
us," Claiborne said. “He came in
and moved the ball well and came
awfully close."

At Hudson Valley. Fohr was an
All-Conference player. He led the
Coastal Conference in passing in
1986, accumulating 1.512 yards and
seven touchdowns.

This season, Fohr got the call
when Dooley was injured against
Ohio University.

He completed 74 of 163 passes for
973 total yards. Fohr also passed for
six touchdowns, including two
against Tennessee.

“it was a good learning experi-
ence." Fohr said of the Tennessee
game. “We moved the ball really
well. That‘s kind of a confidence
booster for next year. “

Junior Charlie Darrington, from
Northeastern Oklahoma Junior Col-
lege, bailed Claiborne out at the

tight end position.

With the graduation of mainstay
ends Mark Wheeler and Matt Lucas,
the position was wide open at the
outset of the season.

Darrington stepped in and wound
up leading UK in pass receptions
until the last game.

(Wide receiver Dee Smith’s 170-
yard performance against the Vols
gave him the No. 1 spot. 1

For the season. 6-3. 225-pound Dar-
rington had 26 receptions for 365
yards and two touchdowns.

Despite making three catches
against the Vols, the pass Darring-
ton remembers the most was the
one he didn‘tcatch.

Late in the third quarter, Darring-
ton dropped a very catchable pass in
the end zone that could have given
UK a 24-14 lead over Tennesse late
in the third quarter.

“1 just didn‘t look it in. l was cele-
brating before I caught it," Darring-

UK assistant coach Jimmy Dykes works with freshman forward
Johnathon Davis during practice at Memorial Coliseum.

ton said. “Sometimes the easy ones
are the hardest to catch."

Claiborne said he won't be scan-
ning the junior colleges for tight
ends or quarterbacks this year. but
he is trying to find players as tal-
ented as Fohr and Darrington.

“The players we‘re going to miss
the most are (Brad) Myers, (Butch)
Wilburn. (Dermontti) Dawson and
(Greg) Kunkel," Claiborne said.
“We‘re going to have to work hard
to recruit some offensive linemen
out of junior college. But we‘re not
going to bring them in unless we can
sign good ones.“
