Calvary Baptist Church, on the corner of E. High Street and S. Martin Luther King Boulevard, is part of
President Lee Todd's proposal to develop a retail corridor between UK and downtown Lexington.

0n the block: Officials hope retail corridor
will entice students to downtown area

By Steve lvey

STAFF wimrii

UK and Lexington officials
hope students may soon find
interest in venturing to down-
town Lexington.

In a joint announcement
Tuesday. President Lee Todd
and Mayor Pam Miller said
17K and Lexington are cooper-
ating to develop a “College-
Town Concept" for the areas
bordered by Rose. Limestone.
Euclid and High streets. The
plan would include improving
retail and residential areas
surrounding campus.

Miller called the venture a
new day for Lexington
and UK.

“We're seeing a different
atmosphere." she said. "I_.'K
and downtown are clearly
neighbors. It's a pleasure to
see we‘re beginning to
work together."

Todd said he has spent the
first part of his tenure laying
out ideas. and is glad to see
them edging closer to reality.

“It's time to put legs under
our visions." he said. “It‘s
been wonderful (working with
the city). because it seems like
I throw out an idea and
it happens."

Miller said the develop
ment plan. on a six-month
timeline. would also need to

operation from neighborhood
groups and from the Urban
(iounty Council.

Dick DeCamp. the .‘ird Dise
trict Councilman. who repre-
sents the area in the develop-
ment plan. said he's glad to see
so much enthusiasm from city
government officials about
working with UK.

“it's a win-win situation."
he said. “There's been too
much of an adversarial role be.-
tween 17K and Lexrngton.
Hopefully this will disprove
the bad raps these neighbor-
hoods and l have. received."

If approved by the council.
the development contract will
go to AyersSaint Gross Ar-
chitects of Baltimore. Md, The
cost is estimated at $200000.
and will be shared equally by
UK and the city.

Ayers Saint Cross has de-
veloped similar college-town
concepts for the University of
Georgia. the University of
North Carolina and is working
with the University of Notre
Dame and Case Western Re-
serve University in Cleveland.

“The level of enthusiasm
I've seen here is consistent
with the national trend." said
Eric Moss. a principal in Ay-
ers Saint Gross.

tion junior. said he goes down

the potential for improvement.

"They‘ve done a lot at
ready." he said. “But We seen
places in Louisville where
there are stretches of shops
and in South Carolina where
there's a stretch of bars. It'd be
great if Lexington could look
like “that.“

Natalie Perdue. a business
management sophomore. said
she has little interest in

“Maybe if they had nice

just to walk around. then M

that although no trouble is ex

Spring rush numbers
better than expected

But members say event should be earlier

By Tom Soper

31;: new:

Even though some Greek
organizations saw smaller
numbers at spring rush. the
Martin Luther King holiday
didn t have the overall impact
that was expected

.Vlike Falkowrtz. a frater
nity advrser and assistant
dean of students. said that this
year's numbers may be better
than last year's

"We haven't heard from

. every chapter." he said. "But
the numbers appear to be pret
ty good for this semester
They may actually be higher
than last year "

Falkowrtz also said the
overall academic quality of
this springs pledges was bet-
ter than in previous years

“Some chapters got as
many as ‘20.“ he said. "Some
got eight or nine. which is still
greater than expected for a
spring rush "

While Falkowrtz said the
overall numbers were good.
some organizations expert
enced lower numbers
than expected

"We oniy got three guys."
said ,Iosh Long. rush chair for
FarmHouse Fraternity "Some
years we've had as many as
seven or eight. The numbers
are low. but we got quality
guys and that is what we want
more than anything.”

Ryan Whiteford. an agri»
culture economics senior and
presrdent of Kappa Sigma.
said getting more pledges
wasn't a major concern.

"We took in eight guys,"
Whiteford said. “Typically we
get around 12 or so But we
had a large fall rush. so we
weren‘t too worried."

Long and Whiteford both
said they heard that either a
chapter‘s numbers were going
to he really good or
really poor

Even though the numbers
were OK. Long and Whiteford
said they would like to see
next year's spring rush sched-
uled earlier

"We would like to see it
the week before the holiday."
Whiteford said. “it gets the
first week of class over with
and we can focus more on the
rush "

(hie doesn't have to look hard to find com-
parisons between UK and 'l‘ennessee.

Both teams have a versatile wing player.
The (‘ats (15-5. 5-3 Southeastern (‘onferencei
have ti-iiml 9 senior forward Tayshaun Prince
and the \'ols (ll-10. H SEC) have 6-t‘oot-7 se-
nior forward Vincent Yarbrough.

Both teams lost a post player to injury. UK
sophomore .lason Parker was sidelined for the
season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament
and l"l‘ Junior Ron Slay was lost for the season
after tearing his At‘l. during UT‘s 66-62 victo-
ry against Syracuse Jan. 19.

liut the key link between the two teams
has been their ability to transform a string of
close losses into big wins in close games.

l’K lost its first three close games but re-
bounded to win two of its last three. including
a 70-68 victory against Florida.

ll'l‘ lost its first seven games decided by
five points or less. but bounced back to win
three straight.

The two teams enter tonight's game a
combined 11-2 in their last 13 games

[’1‘ t‘oach Buzz Peterson credited the lead»
ership of his seniors for his team's turnaround
while lTK's Prince highlighted a team etfoit

“We have to come together as a basketball
team and we‘re starting to do that." he said.
“We're starting to get contributions from
everyone and not just a few people."

ln l‘K's last seven games five different
pl 13ers ha\el led the( (‘ats in sc.oring Against
Southl arolina Feb 2 five( ‘ats scored eight
or more points and three scored 1 0 or more.

Meanwhile. UT has rode Yarbrough.

He made the game-winning basket during
l'l“s 67-65 win at Vanderbilt Saturday and
won SEC Player of the Week honors for the
second time this season.

“Yarbrough is probably the leading candi-
date for player of the year in (the SEC) and
he‘s been playing extremely well." said (‘oach
Tubby Smith.

l'K will need a focused team effort to de-
feat the \'ols in Knoxville.

“I'd be very surprised." Smith said of the
possibility of his team overlooking another op-
ponent. “They‘ve all grown up and learned to
narrow their focus."

 Weather

Damn the
groundhog

Wicked winter

weather has once
again pounced
upon an
unsuspecting
campus. Whom
do we have to
blame? Should
we blame
pollution?

Global warming?

00 we blame the

meteorologists
who have failed
to show rhyme or
reason for the
weather
patterns?

No. It is clearly the

fault of that
damned furry
rodent. the
groundhog. It had
to go and see its
shadow and run
back into its
velvet-lined hole.
i am fed up with
that spoiled ball
of fur making
campus life
miserable with
six more weeks
of winter. I think
there are far
more animals out
there that
deserve the
position of
power. Here are
some of my top
candidates.

The dog: Kind,

loveable, furry,
more intelligent
than a ground
hog and best of
all not scared of
shadows. A well-
positioned bone
is sure to make a
dog stay out of
its doghouse
when the

sun rises.

The monkey: It is a

common known
fact that
monkeys like
bananas and
bananas only
grow in warm
weather. Need I
say more?

The goldfish: We will

put it in a small
glass bowl of
water and see if
it has the nerve
to predict a
longer period of
sub-freezing
weather.

I think you see what

I'm getting at.
The groundhog
has no
motivation to
stay out of its
hole. if it climbs
back in when its
shadow shows
up, what does it
have to loose?
Nothing, it'll be
praised and
admired in its
own heated little
habitat for the
rest of the year.
if you yanked a
college student
out of bed, put
him outside in 20
degree weather
and then let him
decide whether
to stay outside
or hop back in
bed, what do you
think he

would choose?

Someone needs to

speak out against
this most heinous
of meteorological
crimes. We want
answers and the
groundhog had
better be ready
to give them -

or you might just
see me walking
around campus
with a new pair
of furry mittens.

UK should impact
mayoral campaign

Students, campus have much at stake in who gets elected,
what the city government’s priorities will be in coming years

Setting aside the question of what size shoes Lexington’s next mayor will have to
fill, the 2002 race has begun.

The field of mayoral candidates was finalized last Tuesday, and the first discus-
sion among the four hopefuls took place Friday.

While predictability is almost assured with respect to major campaign themes —
tougher law enforcement, controlling urban sprawl, the Lexington-UK relationship
— this year‘s mayoral candidates could potentially face one unusual factor. a UK stu-
dent body sincerely interested in how its city is governed.

It seems almost counter-intuitive that students would not care about local poli-
tics, since issues heard by the Urban County Council affect almost every aspect of
student life. From parking to partying to shopping to simply living, the city of Lex-
ington plays a large role in every student's life.

Sadly, participation in local government has been dismal in the past, and few
signs indicate that this year will be any different. It could, though, and indeed
it should.

The Lexington Area Party Plan was passed into law early this year, and council
members have stated their intentions to restrict the rights of students even further.
Stricter parking laws may soon go into effect downtown, and the question of where
UK will play basketball may loom large if the funds are not raised to finish the Lex-
ington Center renovations.

The mayor also plays a role in the economic well-being of Lexington, which cer-
. tainly impacts the lives of graduating seniors. And with hard work and a small
r amount of luck, every student reading this will be a graduating senior in the next
few years.

So, the opportunity is there for those who recognize that the futures for both stu-
dents and Lexington are not mutually exclusive. One need not volunteer for a candi-
date or work a phone bank to get involved. Rather, one can write the local newspa-
per, attend a speech or just converse with friends. .

After all. the country learned in 2000 the importance of one vote. Imagine the
power of 30,000.

Mother Nature,
Father Time:
cruel parents

My grandmother recently turned 89. and the family went to
the nursing home for her birthday party. I‘ve only visited her
once in the year that she‘s been there.

It's one of those situations when
you feel you should do something, but
you hate it so much you always find
reasons to avoid it. I couldn't miss her
birthday, though. She wouldn't have
known the difference, but I felt
I should go for my family, and
for myself.

The home she lives in is much
nicer than the one my great grand- “a“
mother lived in 10 years ago. It doesn‘t
have the over-deodorized smell that re-
minds you of human waste the same
way a dorm resident might associate the smell of dryer sheets
