CAPE GlRARDEAU, Mo. — A
fraternity pledge who died alleged-
ly after a beating during initiation
rites had described repeated attacks
by members of the group, his girl-
friend said.

Five fraternity members were
charged Wednesday with involun-
tary manslaughter and hazing in the
death of Michael Davis, a 25-year-
old journalism student at Southeast
Missouri State University.

Davis died Tuesday of blunt trau-
ma to the head, a coroner said.

FJnergency workers were origi-
nally told Davis suffered injuries in
a sandlot football game.

Police said he really was among
a group of Kappa Alpha Psi pledg-
es who were repeatedly punched on
a football field Monday night.

Davis described the attacks in de-
tail on Monday, his girlfriend said.

"They punched and kicked him. I
asked if he ever got the urge to
swing back and he said, ‘We can't.’
He said he‘d been kicked in the
head." said Felicia Taylor of St.
Louis.

Later that night, Davis went
through one last hazing line.

On Tuesday, a friend found him
in respiratory arrest in his apart-
ment and he was pronounced dead
later at a hospital, police Sgt. Carl
Kinnison said.

The hazing had gone oh for days
before Davis collapsed, his family
said.

“When I asked him why he want-
ed to pledge this fraternity. he said,
‘Ma, when you’re pledged, you
have to take it," said his mother,
Edith Davis of University City.

WASHINGTON — A scholarship re-
stricted to black students is helping Kathy
Cousins pursue her dream of obtaining a
doctorate and a college teaching position.

Seeking to provide other minority stu-
dents with similar opportunities, the Educa-
tion Department said yesterday that colleg-
es and universities may use race-based
scholarships to remedy past discrimination
or diversify student bodies.

“We want the doors to post-secondary
education to remain open for minority stu-
dents," Education Secretary Richard Riley
said.

David Warren, president of the National
Association of Independent Colleges and
Universities, said the revised policy “re-
stores the vital stream of financial aid dol-
lars" to minority students.

“These kind of programs have been
around for a long time," said Robert At-
well, president of the American Council on
Education. “They are symbolically very im-
portant."

Cousins, a second-year doctoral student
in mathematics education at the University
of South Florida, received her aid through
one of 25 fellowships provided each year
by the Florida Education Fund. created in
1984 to produce black PhDs.

“I did not have a job and I needed the
money to come in.“ Cousins said. “It pro-
vided me with the opportunity to pursue
my degree."

The future of race-based scholarships
had been in limbo since 1990, when the
Bush administration first proposed that
they be banned. 'llrat order never took ef-
fect.

Opponents contend that race-based
scholarships violate federal civil rights law
and discriminate against white students by
shrinking the amount of aid available to
them.

“I think they're illegal," said Richard
Korner, who was the Education Depart-
ment‘s deputy assistant secretary for civil
rights under the Bush administration.

Closing Rose Street possible, Willis says

 

By Anne Jackson
Staff Writer

 

UK‘s proposed Central and Life
Sciences Library may force the
University to look at new altcma-
tives to the ever-increasing traffic
problem, including the closing of
Rose Street, Director of UK Librar-
ies Paul Willis said yesterday.

At a meeting of UK emeriti, Wil-
lis said the new library will make
parking much more difficult and
that UK is looking at several solu-
tions.

“1t will be a problem," he said.
“The plans all for some added
parking very close to the lih‘ary.
but probably not within the 30-acre
site."

One solution that has been pro-
posed would be a bus-urnsround
service in front of the library, Wil-
lis said.

He also indicated that Rose
Street, which borders Central Cam-

0

pus, could be closed at some point,
a move that has been debated in the
past.

“I think it‘s interesting. There
was a time when the city wanted to
close Rose Street and the Universi-
ty did not want to, during the (UK
President John) Oswald administra-
tion.

“Now, we have the opposite situ-
ation with the University wanting
to close Rose Street and the city
not really willing to talk about it."

Lexington Mayor Pam Miller op-
posed the idea of closing Rose
Street last fall when an opponent
raised the issue during the mayoral
race.

Miller said closing Rose would
do nothing but increase the traffic
on the adjoining Nicholasville
Road.

Willis does not know how this
situation will be resolved but sug-
gested the city will be subjected to
ever-growing pressure to close
Rose Street as other construction

In addition, he is a

Murphy entered the
contest last fall because
he agreed with the mes-

“The video is just a series
of white words being dis-

said.

“I debated for a long time on sending it

Murphy’s entry, which is set to the music

93-92 win. Against UMass, he
fueled UK's second-half charge,
nailing three straight treys.

But the Houston native saves his
grandest performances for Baton
Rouge, the closest SEC campus to
his Texas home. As a freshman, he
burned the Tigers for 25. And in the
final eight minutes of this classic.
Brassow once again made himself
at home in the Bayou.

Brassow from the left wing. Bras-
sow from the top of the key. Bras-
sow from the Twilight Zone! It
didn‘t matter, it was sure to go in.

All the while, the LSU players
and coaches appeared dazed by the
onslaught. Clarence Ceaser had the
look of someone who had been the
victim of a bad practical joke;
coach Dale Brown wandered the
sideline aimlessly, hopelessly.

The LSU debacle culminated
with Walter McCarty's garne-
winning three-pointer, a shot that
will immortalize the sophomore in
UK‘s basketball annals, a shot' that
sent the party hat and bead-wearing
revellers home on Fat Tuesday feel-
ing decidedly flat.

Now UK, the defeats to Arkansas
and Syracuse pushed into the far
reaches of the memory banks,
sports a new attitude. And with
teams possessing talent like the
Cats, added confidence is a scary
thought for opponents.

Pity poor Vanderbilt tomorrow in
Nashville. Vandy technically has a
chance of beating UK (and Gary
Hart technically has a shot to win
the presidency, Jim “Hey Vern"
Varney technically has a chance at
winning an Oscar).

No, the Commodores are at the
wrong place at the wrong time,
standing in the path of a Steamroller
in its early stages. The Cats could
fall behind by 20 and not even
flinch. These Cats scoff at 20-point
deficits.

So what’s next for Pitino, who in
a span of three season‘s has
coached in one of the greatest
games ever played (UK-Duke) and
the greatest comeback of all-time
(O.K. Duke. the greatest in the last
44 Years).

What‘s next, coach? With this
avant-garde squad, we‘re running
out of superlatives.

Phoenix Group gives comical

view of muddled relationships

This production takes it cue from
movies like “Ishtar"and “Lawrence
of Arabia" by setting “As You Like
It" in the desert sands. And Phoenix
Group Theatre's current of-
fering is relatively success-
ful in pulling it off.

Despite the amateurish set
and slightly better costumes.
there are quite a few bright
spots that deserve recogni-
tion.

The principal actresses
are all quite good. Donna

Genet’s Celia are played ex-
tremely well, making

joyable and understandable. They
have a high level of performing en-

Whether it be sex- laden raps or

If you’re looking for that “un-
plugged“ sound MTV has managed
to capture and rapidly exploit but
are starved for something with a lit-
tle more substance. Steve James
brings his acoustic blues show to
Lynagh’s on Tuesday.

James has earned a lot of recogni-
tion and respect for his six-suing
abilities. weaving covers and origi-
nals with his own sense of style and
creativity.

James, who has a style that seems
to lean toward a country/blues feel,
also is the editor of Acoustic Gui~
tar, a magazine that allows him to
teach his trade.

Most of the show will probably
be taken from James‘ latest CD.
Two Track Mind, on Antone

Also performing that night with
James will be fellow acoustic blues-
men Frank Schaap and Joey
Broughman.

The surreal sounds of Big Hat

The group hasn’t been resting on
its laurels since then, releasing the

by the vocals of the praised Yvonne
Brunet.

The band’s shows are known for
being very theatrical and involved,
making for a rare experience.

The Wrocklage plans on dishing
out a pluckin' good time with a re-
visit by those good ol‘ boys The
Cactus Brothers on Feb. 25.

The Cactus Brothers have created
quite a stir in Nashville, Tenn., with
their self-titled debut album, nota-
bly for sewing the energy and ag-
gressive sassiness of rock with the
unmistakable feel of Bluegrass
heart and country swing, creating a
sound that has been dubbed “raw
Appalachian-tinged punk-powered
music.”

All of this without falling into the
country pop that Garth and Billy
Ray have so well defined.

Opening for The Cactus Brothers
will be Lexington‘s own The Blue-
berries.

There are rumors that this acous-
tic-driven rock band is working on
a follow-up to its last excellent CD.
Dinner.

Funk is not only alive. it contin-
ues to be redefined by bands such
as Billy Goat, which will be at the
Wrocklage tomorrow night. Sup-
porting the group‘s latest percus-
sion flavored release, Bush Roam-
ing Mammals. Billy Goat has
moved more from a groove-
oriented rap into the realms of ener-

gy-driven funk, transferring it
through its stage show.

Led by founders/vocalists Mike
Dillon and Kim Pruitt, Billy Goat
draws from a tribal-like percussive
sound, mixing in its own dance feel
and satirical sense of humor, touch-
ing on subjects from social freedom
to getting naked.

The show should be. for lack of a
better term, orgasmic.

hero, although some of his early
speeches are a bit muddled.

The same is true of Sidney Shaw.
As the melancholy Jaques. Shaw
has a number of lengthy
monologues that tend to
slow the pace of an other-
wise fast show.

Special recognition
should go to Joe Gatton as
Touchstone the clown. Gat-
ton brings to the clown a
consistent sense of comedy
and timing. Laura Blake as
Audrey, and Elizabeth Sav-
age as Phoebe also are wor-
thy ot‘ note.

Still, as good as many of the cast
members are, there are a couple of
the characters that seem forced.

Yet there are questions left unan-
swered. such as. “Why Arabia?"
The audience is never given a clear
reason for the “Aladdinesque”
theme.

Could it be that “As You Like It"
was one of Scherazade’s tales or
was written on one of the lost
scrolls of Ali Baba? There are a lot
of interesting thematic possibilities
that go untapped. And perhaps the
stoogelike slapstick is a bit too
broad at times.

Nevertheless, “As You Like It" is
an enjoyable two-hour romp.

“As You Like It" is showing to-
night. tomorrow and Sunday and
Feb. 25, 26 and 27 at the Lexington
Central Public Library Theater.
Friday and Saturday shows are at 8
p.m. and Sunday shows are at 2
p.m. Tickets are $8.50. Call (606)
