shelters

‘Something had to be done': Activists prefer
“no-kill" to government-run animal shelters

.l.-\.\llu'.\'l‘t )WX. Ky. iAl’i Activists in Kentucky hayejoined
a nationwide effort to establish private or “no-kill" animal shelters
as an alternative to nndeitunded. government-riin shelters.

.\'o-kiII shelters have been established in several counties. in
cliiding .‘vnderson, Iilliott and .\Iartin. More are planned for Brack
en. ('asey and Russell counties. among others.

l’ritics have a long lIs' ot complaints about county animal
shelters and dog wardens. mostly in rural areas. Most complaints
center on the conditions of the shelters. the lack of training among
the wardens and a lack of reipiireinents at many shelters to spay
or neuter the ten dogs that are adopted. continuing the ovei‘popu
Iation problem

In Russell county. activist \t'ilma Hopper began visiting the
dog pound this year w ith food. cleaning supplies and a video cam
era because of her concern oy er the conditions

".-\ lot of times there was no water. no tood." said Hopper. the
president of a fledgling anitiial welfare league.

In June. she shot a Video of a dead dog lying in watering pans
at the pound. with another small dog drinking near the paws ofthe
dead one as llies Iiii/zerl around

The county paid tor a conciete floor for the pound last summer
and installed water .Icff Bryant. the county dog warden. said he
goes to the pound twice a day to feed and water the dogs and clean
up lie described Hopper as a “triathlemaker” who "wants a big-
time facility built ”

counties often plead poverty. but shelter and animalcontrol
programs can generati- money to offset the costs. said Prestons-
burg lawyer Nod I’illersdorf.

"It's not expensive to operate an animal shelter." Pillersdoif
said He is married to state Supreme (‘ourt .Iiistice Janet Stumbo.
and the two started the Ilewey Dam Dog and (Tat Protection Soci-
ety in Hoyd i‘ounty. which now operates the animal shelter.

'I‘eresa ()ns‘lcy. who keeps books for the shelter. said Floyd
(‘ounty provides smooo a year to operate it. and Prestonsburg
gives $2.1m. Annual operating costs are more than Storm ()usley
estimated Donations and adoption fees help cover costs.

The people trying to develop private shelters also are reacting
to high killing rates at some county facilities.

Linda Smith of Bracken (‘ounty said she started trying to es»
tablish a iiokill shelter this year after learning that nearly all the
dogs at the with y slietter get euthani/ed.

“It was the most heartbreaking thing.” Smith said

chapter GPA of around 2.89. Kap-
pa Sigma received two scholar

stepped up and got stuff done and
I feel really good about that." said
Will Price. an education junior
Ward Ballerstedt. a business
management and political sci-
ence sophomore. said winning
the awards shows the fraternity
has made great strides in many

ill‘f‘ZlS.

“Basically this means a lot to
us as a chapter. It shows we are
excelling academically and that
we're setting an example on catn-
pus and nationally as a chapter
that’s successful. It should serve
as an example for other chapters
from our fraternity to follow."
Ballerstedt said.

Kappa Sigma received two
silver scroll awards for two $5.000

alumni donations to the National
Kappa Sigma Endowment Fund.
They also received a recruitment
award for both the fall and spring
seiitesters last year With 21
pledges for fall and 38 for spring.
these pledge classes were among
the largest on campus last year,
“(letting recognition for our

achievements gives us a sense of

pride and accomplishment.”

Moody album disappoints

By Sam mg

STAFF MRIIER

Jeff Arundel
Mood Ring
ZINC

A mellow-sounding charmer
of a musician has hit the soft
rock scene with his debut CD,
entitled Mood Ring. As soon as I
put this CD in my stereo. I had
instant deja vu of several '80s
songs that rocked my world
years ago. This guy sounds like
a soft-spoken Bon Jovi. with a
bit of style borrowed from Chris
lsaak's love songs.

Unfortunately the music on
this album is far from the new
and improved. The sound is so
slow and relaxing that you can
play this disc from the begin-
ning and never know the song
ever changes. unless you pay
special attention. With some ab-
solutely monotonous rhythm
and chords. this is a depressing-
ly boring score.

On a higher note, an ele-
ment of Mood Ring that de-
serves recognition is the vast
amount of places in the heart
the lyrics allow us to travel.
Any one listener could find
himself remembering the death
of a loved one, empathizing how
hard it is to think positively on
life, or to dream of that par-
adise we all have imagined.

Of course. this is if the 11s
tener actually wants to get past
the upsetting drone of the mu.
sic and pays attention to the
words.

I can say I didn't need a
“mood ring“ to tell me what
kind of mood l was in after i
took a listen to this release
Grade: C-

Menace to Sobriety
Atlantic

Though summer is almost
over, OPM‘s Menace to Sobriety
is a definite summer album.

The album's first listen
comes off as a bad cross be-
tween Barenaked Ladies, Blink
182 and the Bloodhound Gang.
However. the more you listen.
the more the songs catch on.

The album‘s best track is
“Unda,” a song dedicated to all
the authority figures that have
caused 0PM trouble in the past.
The disc also features the skate
anthem “Heaven is a Halfpipe."

Though the lyrics are fluff.
the songs are upbeat and fun.
Songs like “Stash Up" and the
hilarious interlude “Rage
Against the Coke Machine"
give the album a summery feel.

Fans of the “Heaven“
should be warned. The album is
vastly different from the oft-
played radio time. But this
might just work in the band's
favor and rescue them from
one~hit-wonder status.

Photos find
homegrown
drug crop

LaPDRTE, Ind. (AP) -
Smile for the camera.

You‘re busted!

A man who had
snapshots taken of
himself with plants
he had grown in his
house allegedly made
the mistake of taking
the film to a
developer who
recognized the
indoor garden
as marijuana.

The processor alerted
authorities, who then
tracked down
the man.

Brian Davis. 38. pleaded
guilty Friday in
LaPorte Circuit Court
to a Class D felony of
maintaining a
common nuisance. If
the plea bargain is
accepted, charges of
dealing in marijuana
and possession of
marijuana will be
dropped and he will
be placed on two
years of probation.

"They were pretty
telling photographs,"
said LaPorte
Metro Operations
Unit Officer
Bonnie Ouigley.

"It was a pretty big
indoor grow."

Ouigley said authorities
confiscated 39 nearly
mature marijuana
plants. They weighed
2.7 pounds
after drying.

According to court
documents. the film
processor at Martin's
Supermarket in South
Bend contacted
authorities in
April because the
freshly developed
pictures showed
what appeared to
be a marijuana
growing operation.

Radium and
wine not so
very fine

DETROIT (AP) - Tony
Ventura was looking
for something to hold
his homemade wine.

So he stopped by an
antique shop in his
hometown of Almont
Township. about 40
miles north
of Detroit.

He found a $50 crock
that was perfect.

Or so he thought.

Now Ventura knows that
drinking wine or
anything else out of
the large jug could
have been deadly.

lts srdes are lined with
radium 226.

"This thing is in
excellent shape. not
a chip or a mark
on it," Ventura
said Friday.
"Unfortunately. it’s
something that killed
people in the
'205 and '305."

Ventura bought the
crock. replete with a
pouring spigot, late
last month. After
discovering the word
'Revigator,’ on the
bottom, he decided
to do some
investigating.

An Internet search
revealed the
item's danger.

The Revigator was once
promoted as a cure-
all. During its heyday
in the 19205, the
Revigator jug was
advertised as a
healthy way to
drink fluids -

a "radioactive
water crock."

But drinking water from
the Revigator leads
to tumors in the jaw,
said Dave Minnaar.
Chief of the Michigan
Department of
Environmental
Ouality's Radiological
Protection Section.

Knight sees day

Final run-in with student results in Bobby
Knight’s release due to years of bad behavior

After 29 seasons at the helm of the basketball juggernaut we all
know as Indiana University. Bobby Knight is gone. Fired. Canned.

Sacked. History.

Lexington, KY 40506-

general ESPN-watching public grew slightly tired of the 0042

Knight Escapades.

Knight belonged to the style of coaching called “old school."
where focus is placed on the program and its coach. but certainly
not on the individual players. Gradually. however. as collegiate

Length 8
style

athletics have become tnore and more commercialized. and as re-

cruiting efforts intensify. coaches have lost their demigod-liko sta-
tus. Some dealt with the changes. some didn't. Obviously Knight
never adjusted to the era of the mysteriously acquired SUV and

blue-chip player recruitment.

So was his firing over this last alleged incident justified? He
has certainly committed far worse offenses and gotten away

with them.

The circumstances surrounding the com-

plaint that led to his firing were shady A» both
the plaintiff and the two witnesses were rela~
tives of Knight‘s biggest detractor in the

Bloomington area.

So as collegiate basketball :9
changes. as the coach shrinks I V
away into oblivion. eclipsed by
the looming shadows of the
stars beneath him. we may never
see another Bobby Knight. No
