Longer SGA elections
would be beneficial

By C.A. DUANE BONIFER
Editor in Chief

The Lexington Campus usually is
a pretty vibrant place time during
Student Government Association
elections. Most buildings, lamp
posts and doors are decorated with
campaign posters. Cafeterias, fra-
ternity and sorority houses and
classroom buildings halls are clus“
tered with candidates and campaign
workers passing out liters and bro-
chures.

No matter what the outcome of
last night‘s
election was,
this year’s SGA
elections
seemed to have
happened all of
a sudden.

Entertainment mogul’s latest big deal just one of many

By PAUL WISEMAN

and MNDY FEITERMAN
USA TODAY/Apple College
Information Network

Before most business men have
lifted their breakfast forks, David
Geffen has begun using a different
sort of utensil: the telephone.

While negotiating business deals,
Geffen will spend 18 hours talking
to other important figures in the
US.

“I'll tell you how early he calls,“
said Irving Azoff, a rival record—deaf
maker anti friend. “I got a call from
him this morning at 6."

He has a lot to talk about. The
47 year-old Geffen is one of tfie
leading record, film anti theater ex—
ecutives in the country. He is the
man behind Jackson Browne, Guns
N’ Roses and Cher. When he dab
bles in movies, the results are hits
like “Risky Business" and “Beetle-
juice." On Broadway, he helped
produce C atx and Dreamgirfs.

Now he has consolidated his po-
sition as one of the wealthiest and
most powerful men in the enter-
tainment industry. Recently he sold
his record label, Geffen Records _
the last of the big independent Ia~
bels — to MCA Inc. for almost
$550 million in stock.

In addition to a five-year contracr
to continue running the record la-
bel, Geffen will collect 86.8 mil—
lion a year in MCA dividends.

Quite an accomplishment for a
college dropout who started in the
mailroom at the William Morris
Agency — one of the nation's top
talent agencies.

“If there are many people in this
world who are better business-
creative executives, I‘ve. never met
them,“ MCA President Sidney J.
Shemberg said.

A magician at making deals
work, Geffen links executives with
rock ’n’ rollers, writers and actors.

“Creative people have to be nur-
tured and dealt With with great sen-
sitivity. At the same time, you
have a business to run," said Al
Teller, chairman of MCA‘s music
entertainment group. “Dave is bril-
liant at working with both sidcs.‘~

What’s more, Geffen has an an»
canny intuition, according to his
associates.

He can pick just the right musi-
cian, just the right movie. just the
right play that the public will love.
even though the rest of the industry
might scoff.

In the play Cuts, actors dressed in
elaborate feline costumes and Wells
ed poetry by TS i‘iltll.

“The prevailing word was. ‘lt‘s
gonna be a disaster,’ “ recalled Ber-
nard Jacobs, wfio runs the Shubert
Organilation — the largest theater
owner on the Great White Way.
“Everybody said, fS. Eliot? What
the hell do Americans know about
these poems." ”

Except for Geffen. Jacobs and he
pushed the production, which has
become one of the top«earning
Broadway plays, Jacobs said. “We
were the only American producers
that had faith that it would be a big
hit."

Geffen’s iiiovies, “aren’t the
mainstream. standard Hollywood
films," said Andrea King, film crit-
ic for The Hollywood Reporter.
“Even ‘Men Don‘t Leave.’ It's a
drama. but it's very quirky “fill a
little bit of a twist iii it."

In records, Geffen's network of
“street scouts" canvass the murky
nightclubs and hip hot spots where
the punk rockers and heavy metal
stars of the future are timing tip.
Most record labels specialize in
sales and marketing.

Geffen Records puts its money
into finding new talent.

Geffen knows what sells, and
he's not afraid to compromise a bit
to turn out a marketable product.
Take ”Risky Business " a I‘N“

comedy starring Tom Cruise as .’t
high school student who converts
his home into a brothel while his
parents are away. Originally,
(‘ruise was to Wind up losing all
his money and getting turned down
by an Ivy League college. A pre-
vtew audience didn't like the end-
ing. So Geffen ordered a sunmer
conclusion, in which ('riiise gets
to go to college.

Geffen. the lirooklyn~born sort of
a brassiere maker, always dreamed
of being a Hollywood mogul.

Once he tried acting, but soon
found that his real talent was book»
mg singers. Geffen worked his way
tip anti through William Morris and
other agencies until he quit to man

Laura f\yro.

At age 27, he started his first
record label. and because of it;
eclectic group of singers. named it
Asylum Records.

A year later, Warner (‘ommiini-
cations botigfit it for $7 million.
Geffen jumped into the movies. He
'went to work for Warner Bros, Pic-
tures. producing movies like “Oh!
God" \\ itli John Denver and George
Burns and “Greased Lightning"
\Hli‘l Richard Pryor. But he hated
the bureaucracy and quit. In I‘Wo.

UK assistant Willard takes WKU’s top job

job, Willard joined him in Lexington.

Prior to that, he served as an assistant at
Syracuse from 1986-87, when the team fin-
ished runner-up in the NCAA Tournament,
and Hofstra from 1984-85.

The Syracuse team Willard helped coach
beat Western Kentucky 104-86 in the sec-
ond round of the 1987 NCAA Tournament.

Pitino was in Denver for the Final Four
and could not be reached for comment
Thursday.

Willard coached 13 years at his high
school alma mater, St. Dominic High in
Oyster Bay. NY.

Willard, a native of Brooklyn, N.Y., and
his wife, Dottie, have three children, Pame-
la, a 21-year—old junior at the University of
Virginia; Keith, a 17-year-old junior at
Tates Creek High School; and Kevin, 14,21

Western Athletics Director Jimmy Feix
said the school‘s search committee, which
considered about 40 applicants, did an ex-
cellent job.

“This is an exciting time for our bas~
ketball program," Feix said. “Our tradition
runs deep, and our future looks bright."

“Ralph Willard is ready to lead this uni-
versity into a new era of basketball great-
ness," added university President Thomas
C. Meredith.

Other finalists for the job reportedly in-
cluded Arkansas-Little Rock‘s Mike Ne-
well, Wayne Chapman of Kentucky Wes.

Community College.

Willard came to UK last year after two
years as an assistant coach with the NBA’s

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — Ralph Wil-
lard. art associate coach at UK, yesterday
was named the new head basketball coach
at Western Kentucky University.

Willard, 4—1, will take over from Murray
Arnold, who announced his resignation
March 7 after four years at Western.

“I'm thrilled and very excited about the
opportunity to become head coach at a
school with the kind of tradition that West-
ertt has enjoyed through the years," Willard
said.

“The program here has tremendous po-
tential. Western plays in an outstanding
conference (the Stiri Belt). and the Hilltop-
pers have a great on-campus facility at

Johnny Owens
golf tourney
begins today at
Kearney Hills

By BOBBY KING

Staff W'tfur ,
A double take might be It] order when the lil\

baseball team travels to Starkville, Miss, to face
Mississippi State University.

Because in more ways than one the Bulldogs
truly offer a mirror image of the Bat Cats.

Nearly identical records (UK is I7~7 and MSU
is 16-7), strong pitching staffs, strong arms and
various other tricks of the trade make for an llltCr-
esting match-up,

”l think our clubs are very similar," UK coach
Keith Madison said. “We both haye the long ball
threat, and we use the hil-Llllti'rllll, drag bunt,
sauce/e play. and others.”

Ihe mirror, though, is smudged. l‘he teariis'
Southeastern Conference records are opposites,
with Kentucky posting a 2-4 mark while the Bull-
dogs are tied for second in the conference with
four wins, two losses.

The three-game series this weekend will give
UK a chance to turn the tables on Mississippi
State. Madison, however, isn’t too worried about
those possibilities, as he envisions the long haul.

“i don’t want to place too much emphasis on
the conference record right now,“ Madison said.
“We play 27 conference games and as the team
grows, we'll place strongly in the SEC "

The likciicssess of the two teams don‘t end w ith
their records Both teams haye strong pitching and
