For Phil McKnight, the
changes in East Germany are a
welcomed surprise.

McKnight. a UK German pro—
fessor, lived in East Germany
for several summers studying,
making friends and learning
about the country’s way of life.

He became involved in the in
tellectual scene, meeting with
playwrights and authors, and
even brought some of his
friends to the United States to
visit UK.

McKnight said that citizens of
the German Democratic Repub-
he have a much closer and
stronger bond than most Ameri-
can friendships because of the
living situations which their
government has imposed on
them.

“Real life takes place in the
private sphere -— in their
homes," McKnight said. ”They
have a great deal of solidarity
among themselves. The lack of
material goods they needed, they
had to trade, they depended on
each other. They found a lot of
support emotionally —- that’s
why the exodus hurt emotional~
Iy.“

McKnight said East Germans
distrust their government be-
cause it often has lied to them.
The government is hypocritical
in their eyes he said because it
retains a lot of privileges for
party leaders, but denies them to
its people. The biggest privilege

 

Changes have surprised
Germans, professor says

is freedom of travel.

McKnight said that some of
his friends are happy with the re-
cent political reforms, but most
of them realize that there is a lot
of work still to be done.

“At the moment there’s really
a tretnendous feeling of euphoria
and happiness.” he said. “The
people I talked to said that
they‘re feeling at the time was
(it was) a revolution from be-
low.

“They felt like everyone was
working with a great deal of en—
ergy and humor to do the practi-
cal things to take the steps need-
ed to work toward democratic
reform."

McKnight said the greatest
thing about the changes was the
elimination of censorship, be-
cause that offers the greatest op-
portunity for democratic reform.

McKnight said that his friend
Christoph Hein, who is an au-
thor, give an interview with
Der Spiegel, a West German
magazine similar to Time.

Hein said in the interview
that he would like to see the
East German attorney general
fired and the West German law
that entails a clause for reunifica~
tion dropped

He also asked that his inter-
view be published in an East
German official party newspaper.
The interview didn’t make it to
the newspaper, but it was pub-
lished in an East German maga-
zine.

Author calls

on blacks

to control their destinies

By KAKlE URCH
Senior Staff Writer

More than 270 people crowded
into the Small Ballroom at the Stu—
dent Center last night to hear Jaw-
anza Kunjufu, a noted writer and
expert on black Americans and edu-
cation.

Kunjufu‘s speech, sponsored by
the Martin Luther King Jr. Cultural
Center, focused on the origins of
and possible solutions to problems
faced by black Americans in US
schools and society.

“We used to value ‘we,’ now we
value ‘I.’ We used to value coopera-
tion, and now it's competition,"
Kunjufu said

Kunjufu said that black American
communities cooperate and look to
black role models, and consider as—

pects of black sociology and child
development when addressing prob
lems in schools and society.

Kunjufu discussed the work of
Imhotep, who is considered to be
the first doctor, as a role model of
competence for black American co-
median Dick Gregory and black na-
tionalist Marcus Garvey.

Kunjufu said they represent the
confidence that black Americans
should project through a proper diet
and inquisitive nature.

Works of psychiatrist Francis
Cress Welsing and Louis Farrak-
han, leader of the nation of Islam,
represent the commitment black
Americans must demonstrate to be
successful, Kunjufu said.

yesterday that WALESA

He asked for more investment to
help pull a bankrupt Polish econo-

In an emotional speech recount-

Congress and the American people
for years of support and words of
admiration.

“These are appreciated, but being

“Let deeds follow words now.”

Walesa arrived in Washington on

by numerous awards and a torrent
of praise as Poland and other East

Landscaping architecture student
wins national award for her project

By JONATHAN MLLER
Staff Writer

UK landscaping architecture stu-
dent Karen Russcher is comfortable
wearing sweats and a T-shirt, but
she isn‘t going to resist dressing up
next week to receive the most pre-
stigious award given to landscaping
architecture students.

Russcher recently won the Dis-
tinguished Design Award, which is
the top award that a landscaping ar-
chitecture student can receive.

Russcher, a fifth—year landscaping
architecture student, will accept the
top prize in the National Student
Design Competition at Orlando,
Fla, on Monday.

The award marks the second time
in three years that a UK student has
won the award. Carla Shuman, who
works in Orlando, Fla, won the
award in 1987.

SP 0““

“Karen (Russcher) is a very crea-
tive and hard-working student," said
Rob Southerland, a fourth-year de-
sign studio professor.

Southcrland told Russcher about
her award last summer.

“When he called me with the re-
sults, he said that he had good news
and bad news,” said Russcher. “I
thought, ‘Oh no, I bet I didn't
win.’ When he told me the good
news (that I had won) I said,
‘What‘s the bad news?”

“The bad news is, you‘ll have to
dress-up to accept the award,“
Southerland said.

Russcher said that she usually
comes to class in sweats and T-
shins. Her attire, however, doesn’t
reflect her work in the classroom.

The project entered into the na-
tional competition was assigned to
Russcher's class to complete re-
quirements for a six-credit course.

“Rob (Southerland) came up with
the idea of a theme park for envi-
ronmental awareness," Russcher
said.

Southerland derived the theme
from Time's “Planet of the Year"
edition which appeared last Janu-

UK's Coldstrcam Farm was cho-
sen as thc site for the theme park.
UK plans to turn part of the 950-
acrc farm on Newtown Pike near
Interstate 64-71 into a research cen-
ter.

“It was a big challenge for our
class," Russcher said. “We re-
searched (at Coldstrcam Farm) for
three to four months.“

Russchcr‘s theme park focuses
on the research, education and pres-
ervation of the area‘s environment.

The theme park includes six ma-
jor areas, but visitors w0uld not be

Contras considering
Sandinistas’ offer

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Nicara-
guan government has offered a ma-
jor concession in cease-fire talks
with the contras by dropping its de-
mand that the rebels demobilizc, a
Sandinista officials said yesterday.

As its price for restoring the
cease fire the g0vernment allowed
to lapse Nov. 1, Vice Foreign Min-
ister Victor Hugo Tinoco said the
government is insisting only that
the rebel forces in Nicaragua.
known as contras, return to their
base camps in Honduras.

“We think that is a very impor-
tant change in our position," Tino—
co told a news conference at the Ni-
caraguan Embassy a few hours
before talks resumed at the Organi-
zation of American States.

TmtX‘O maintained that while the
Sandinistas are willing to make
concessions. the contras have
shown “not an inch of flexibility"
in four rounds of talks starting last
Thursday at the L'nited Nations.

There was no immediate response
by the rebels but administration of-
ficials said the contras have told
them evacuation from Nicaraguan
territory is not feasible.

As pan of a cease-fire agreement,
the rebels would be willing instead
to relocate in designated “enclaves"

in Nicaragua where their activities
could easily be monitored by inter-
national observers. the contras have
told US. officials.

If they return to Honduras, it is
possible they could be prevented by
international monitors from retum-
ing to Nicaragua, the contras have
argued.

In addition, they said, since the
contras are Nicaraguans, it makes
no sense for them to remain inside
their homeland rather than in a
neighboring country.

There are about 5,000 rebels in
Nicaragua, about 2.000 of whom
have recently infiltrated from the
Honduran base camps.

Nicaraguan President Daniel Or-
tega declined to renew the cease fire
on Nov. 1.

Secretary of State James A. Bak-
er III said Monday that the suspen-
sion of the truce had created “a mil-
itanzed election atmosphere."

Ortega defended his decision by
saying the rebels had been engaging
in terrorist activity.

Hoping to prod the negotiators
toward a settlement were representa-
tives from the United Nations and
the Organization of American
States. They are members of the In—
ternational Commission for Sup-
port and Verification, which was
set up to oversee the peace process.

Wilkinson clarifies comment on taxes

Associated Press

FRANKFORT, Ky. — Gov.
Wallace Wilkinson's assertion that
“1 am for tax avoidance" was “an
unfortunate use of words," though
technically proper. Wilkinson said
yesterday.

“I think it was widely misunder-
stood in the context in which it
was used," Wilkinson said in a
news conference.

“In no way did I mean to say

Kernel

P e rs o 11 a1 5
The perfect gift

that people ought not to pay taxes
that they legally owe under the
law,” Wilkinson said.

The Lexington Herald—Leader re-
ported Monday that the Capital Pla-
za Hotel in Frankfort was not listed
in Franklin County’s tax rolls in
1984 or 1985, the first two years
Wilkinson owned it. Wilkinson had
listed it several months before the
1987 gubernatorial primary and
paid $885 in 1986 taxes.

The newspaper also said that
Wilkinson’s Lexington house and
an office building he owns in
downtown Lexington were underas-
sessed.

Wilkinson told the newspaper: “I

am for tax avoidance. I am not for
tax evasion. I believe every taxpay-
er has the responsibility to avoid
whatever taxes they can avoid."

“It was an unfortunate use of
words, although technically cor-
rect,” Wilkinson said yesterday.
“Every taxpayer has the responsi-
bility under the law to avoid what‘
ever taxes they can.

“Rather than using the word
‘avoid,’ I should have said I think
every taxpayer has the responsibili-
ty for tax planning. That would
have been a better choice of words.
although they mean the same.

“That's why we have H&R
Block and any number of others —

so people can plan their taxes under
the law to avoid any tax liability
they may avoid," Wilkinson said.

He and his companies paid more
than $500,000 in property taxes
last year and he expects the bills to
total $559,000 this year, Wilkin-
son said.

He defended the hotel’s absence
from the tax rolls before 1987, say~
ing that tax abatement was among
incentives offered by state and city
officials who wanted him to build
it.

Because the hotel sits on state
property and is operated on lease, it
"probably ought not to be on the
tax rolls now,” Wilkinson said.

Award named in honor of Kuder

Colorado State University announced an award in the memory of
Joan Gaynor Kuder, the wife of UK Vice Chancellor for Student
Affairs James Kuder.

The Joan Gaynor Kuder Award will provide about $1,000 annual-
ly to faculty and staff to further their educations.

Joan Gaynor Kuder, a former Colorado State University employ-
ee, will be awarded to a Colorado State employee who has taken
four to six credits per academic year and has been an active member
of the university community.

Kuder worked for 17 years in the Office of Personnel Services,
Office of University Planning and Budgets. Counseling Centers and
the Office of Admissions and Records.

She also served as president of the Faculty Club Board and was a
member of the Colorado State Classified Personnel Council and the
University Club governing board.

“This award is a great tribute to the hard work and dedication of
people who work full- time jobs and continue their education, ” Rob—
ert Dey, executive vice president of the Colorado State Foundation,
said in a press release. “It definitely reflects the generous spirit of
Joan Gaynor Kuder."

UK-UT student tickets available

Although distribution of student tickets for the UK-Tcnnessee
football game Nov. 25 began yesterday, student ticket pickups were
so low that the athletic off ice plans to make any remaining tickets
by Friday available to the general public. Ticket distribution had
been moved up because of next week’s Thanksgiving holiday.

Rodney Stiles, student officer for tickets, said ticket distribution
was lower than expected yesterday. Stiles said that students wanting
to attend the game should get their tickets before the weekend.

“The rest of the students who go home for the weekend are taking
a big chance." Stiles said.

Student tickets for the UK-Tennessee football game will be avail-
able from 9 am. to 4 pm. at Memorial Coliseum.

Guest tickets for football games are $15 for stadium seats and
$10 for end zone seats.

SGA collecting for homeless

Students can still donate money from their mealcards to the
homeless as pan of the Student Government Association‘s “Share
Your Wealth Program."

Public Relations Committee Chairman EJ. Bunzendahl said that
a student has only to drop by one of the tables they have set up on
campus and fill in his or her name and social sercuity number on a
card.

The money will be taken off the balance on their mealcards.

All funds will go to aiding the Horizon Center for the Homeless
and God’s Pantry.

Bunzendahl said that SGA is planning to have a fundraiser
soon to aid the Canaan House, which provides job training to the
homeless.

She said that she was disappointed that students who volunteer
to go to Washington for the Housing NOW March have not shown
up for any of SGA‘s projects to help the homeless.

SPORTS
Wildcats should not be home for the holidays

UK Coach Jerry Claiborne and
his 6-3 Wildcats could find that the
only “bowl-ing" they’ll do during
December is at the bowling alley.

According to a story in yester-
day’s Lexington Herald-Leader, UK
only has a shot at one bowl — the
Independence Bowl, which is played
in Shreveport, La., Dec. 16th. And
UK’s chances of being selected for
that bowl are marginal at best.

What the heck is going on here,
you might ask?

Wasn’t this the same team that
only last weekend had the attention
of three bowls (Peach, Liberty, and
All—American) during the UK’s
squeaker over hopeless Vanderbilt?

Wasn't this the same team that
the All-American Bowl said it
might even take with a 6-5 record?

Wasn’t this the same team that
the Peach and Liberty bowls said
had to win one of its last two
games, preferably Florida?

I thought so, too.

 

Chris
HARVEY

 

 

Claiborne and his staff must be
shaking their heads over at Com-
monwealth Stadium. Some reports
say the winner of the UK—Florida
game will get a bid to the Indepen—
dence Bowl. Independence Bowl Di-
rector Bob Aillet, however, denies
tltat.

“To say that we are going to take
the UK-Florida winner, that's not
so,” Aillet said in the story.

According to Aillet, the Indepen-
dence Bowl has contacted UK, btit
UK officials haven‘t called back.

Penny Lee, another Independence
Bowl official, said that her bowl
scheduled a meeting last night to
decide whether to take UK, Florida.

Mississippi St. or South Carolina.

lt’s understandable why UK
hasn‘t called them back. While UK
is hungry for a bowl, they are too
good a team to settle for the hide-
pendence Bowl.

It looks as if that the only way
UK will get a bid to the Peach,
Liberty, or All-American bowls is
for the other teams in front of UK
on each bowl‘s list to stumble, and
stumble bad.

Most importantly, UK must
keep winning. A loss to the Gators
could be the end of any bowl possi—
bility for the Cats.

“They really need to beat Flori—
da," All-American Bowl Informa-
tion Director Bill Miller said last
night in a telephone interview from
Birmingham, Ala. “UK’s been here
twice, so were looking at teams
that haven't been here."

The teams the All-Atticrican
Bowl is considering include Duke,

Texas Tech and Virginia.

Notre Dame’s Lou Holtz living
a year of discontent in South Bend

By JIM UTKE
Associated Press

After winning the national cham~
pionship last January, spending
much of the summer reading and all
of the fall preparing, Lou Holtz is
exactly what he wants to be — un<
beaten and about to begin the sea—
son of his discontent.

Calendars are fine for marking
time, but Holtz’s mood is just as
accurate, and a good deal more col-
orful.

When those slim shoulders stoop
so badly you can’t make out the
“Notre Dame" embroidered across
his chest, when those sad eyes have
more bags under them than the
counter at the Safeway down the
street, when every opponent is per—
trayed as bigger than Goliath.
stronger than Hercules and faster
than Mercury (all this from a man
whose team has won 22 straight
football games), you can safely bet
the house that Lou is in the hunt
for the national championship.

Again.

“This hasn't been a fun time,"
Holtz said yesterday. “I have diffi-
culty sleeping at the present time
over the winning and the pressure
that builds with this thing. I told
our football players (that) last Janu-
ary and I didn’t know I‘d be as pro-
phetic as it turned out to be."

You‘d think a man would allow
himself a deep breath and a smile
and a good night‘s sleep after win-
ning all 10 of his games this sea-
son —— the last one a 59—6 rout Over
Southern Methodist University —
and holding onto the No. 1 ranking
throughout. But you’d be wrong if
you thought that man was Lou
Holtz.

“I think the No. 1 team in the
country would be the highest-
ranking team that has the easiest
row to hoe.

“When you look at Penn State
on our schedule up there, and Mia-
mi down there, and then, obvious.
ly, followed by a bowl game I'd
have to say the chances of Notre
Dame making it through those
three games would monumentally
stacked against us.

“I believe that in the bottom of
my heart, and yet, I don‘t think
there’s anybody in the country we
aren’t capable of beating," Holtz
said. “But to play three football
games of the magnitude on the
road, and expect this football team
to go through and win all three, I
think, personally, that’s asking too
much of a football team.‘

As the parable instructs, the
problem with crying “wolf" at eve-
ry turn is that sooner or later. a real
one is bound to turn up.

But things have been tough
enough for Holtz this season —— he

ble Michigan State team.

But Holt/Ts relentless pessimism
killed much of the joy during what
should have been an enjoyable
three-week stretch that followed
successive games against under-
whelming Purdue. Stanford and Air
Force 17 and his charges‘ boundless
enthusiasm tsome would call it
rowdyism) nearly killed the Golden
Goose himself whrn USC visited
South Bend on a cold and blustery
aftemoon Oct. 21.

That was when the Irish did their
fighting before the kickoff, rum»
bling with Southern Call just out
side the tunnel leading to the team
locker rooms. 11 detracted front

what was one of Notrc Dame's tin-
est games in recent memory, a stir-
ring 28-24 comeback VlCltftr), and
left Holt]. distressed and disturbed

Likely recalling last year’s
“Catholics vs. Convicts" brawl
with Miami, as well as the shoving
.tnd showboating that marred the fi-
nal moments of the Fiesta Bowl
Victory win over West Virginia that
stewed up the national champion
ship. Holtz dashed off a formal
apology for the “unnecessary cott-
trontzition" and signed it “The
members of the Notre Dame Foot-
ball Team."

Holtz was less formal with his
players. He warned them: “Do it
again and I‘m gone.” The following
week. the decidedly un-Fighting
irish formed a single-file line on
the far sideline when Pittsburg’s

see one. Tulsa is 55 and could con-
ceivably get in at 5-6. That would
indeed be a travesty and a slap-in—
the-face of the Cats, which has
overcome INJUFlCS, players leaving
the team, etc. to fight their way
into bowl contention.

lf L'K doesn't go to a bowl at 7—4
or 8-3, what are they going to hate
to do? 00 10-1.

What is hard to believe is that
UK once made it to a bowl with a
6-4—1 record. That was back In
1983.

UK‘s players should use all this
negative bowl talk to their advan-
tage and go out and beat Honda and
Tennessee. Two good wins over
those guys, and they‘ll make the
bowls look awfully bud tor not Lil;-
ing them.
