Senators want
closer check
on accounts

By GREGORY A. HALL
Senior Staff Writer

Some Student Government Association senators interviewed yesterday
said they will call for tighter checks and balances on the organization’s
checking accounts.

SGA President Sean Lohman closed down SGA's independent checking
account — over which he had sole authority — Wednesday. at the request
of UK officials.

Lohman had used the independent checking account for personal busi-
ness and to give bonuses to SGA employees and election officials who held
voluntary positions, according to records obtained by the Kentucky Kernel.

Lohman denied misuse of the account, saying he reimbursed it when he
wrote checks for personal use. He said he intends to open a new checking
account after an audit of all SGA accounts takes place.

But some student senators indicated they want more control over any fu-
ture accounts.

"It could have been Mother Teresa in charge of that account and you still
would have needed some controls.” College of Allied Health Senator Jill
Lowry said.

Unlike other SGA accounts, which require oversight by the University
administration, SGA presidents have had sole responsibility for the check-
ing account since it was opened in the fall of 1985 by then-SGA president
John Cain.

“I don’t think he meant to do anything wrong, but I think he was irre-
sponsible in his management of that fund.” Senator at Large Kim Goodwin
said.

Both Lowry and Goodwin said that any new checking accounts set up by
SGA should require checks to be signed by two people. Checks drawn

Scud patrol
strikes Iraqi
launchers

By MORT ROSENBLUM
Associated Press

A computer-based information
sharing network started nearly two
years ago by a UK faculty member
is being used by sociologists in Is-
rael to help families deal with stress
from frequent missile attacks.

Greg Brock. chairman of the fam-
ily studies department at UK, said
the Family Science Network was
formed primarily to share ideas and
developments in family studies with
universities nationally and intema-
tionally.

But recently, the 15 UK faculty
members who participate in the net-
work (along with other universities)
have discovered the network serves
another purpose in Israel because of
Iraqi‘s bombing.

UK and other schools in the net-
work work directly with faculty
members at the University of Haifa
in Israel.

Patricia Dyk. a professor of soci-
ology at UK. said it is imponant to
see that sociologists in Haifa are
“helping people while gathering in-
formation."

Dr. Yoav Lavee, a sociologist at
the University of Haifa, is currently
using the system to send informa-
tion about studies it is conducting
concerning how families handle
stress resulting from the continued

a mechanical problem was
probably to blame.

As ground fire died down
for the moment on the north-

ern front lines, the Desert

The US. command said the
air campaign had passed the

By GREGORY A. HALL
Senior Staff Writer

The Chancellor for the Lexington
Campus‘ Office has released the
names of the six finalists for vice

will visit the campus this month.

acting vice chancellor.

Hanks, chairman of the Political
Science Department at Tuskegee

the Ohio higher education system‘s
“REACH for Success!“ program;

Students don’t give
stamp of approval

By ANNE BARNES
Staff Writer

UK and Lexington Community
College students generally do not
support a 4-cent postage increase
that went into effect yesterday.
Most students said it will be “a real
inconvenience" to them.

“I think it's ridiculous to raise the
price of stamps because I send a lot
of letters out of state," said Matt
Hall, a business administration
sophomore.

The new first—class rate is 29
cents for the first ounce and 23
cents for each additional ounce.
Sending a postcard now costs 19
cents.

“I don't think it needs to be in-
creased since it was just recently in—
creased."said Jennifer O’Dell, a bi-
ology sophomore. “Why not make
it 30 cents instead of 29 cents?"

Special “F" stamps featuring a
flower are available at post offices
to cover the new rate until official
29-cent stamps are printed.

In addition. makeup stamps
worth 4 cents (although they don't
show any amount on them) are
available. These stamps, combined
with a 25-cent stamp, represent the
new 29-cent rate.

“I don't think it’s a good idea."
said Theresa Crow, a nursing jun-
ior. “I think there is a lot of ineffi~
ciency in the postal service. I feel
that a lot of waste goes on in the
government."

Other students said the war in the
Persian Gulf has given the US.
Postal Service copious business. so

 

“It’s really stupid be-
cause they claim they

aren’t getting any mon—
ey when they are,"

Dionte Gentry,
UK student

postage prices should not go up
NOW.

“It's really stupid because they
claim they aren’t getting any money
when they are.“ said Suzanne
Forbes, a social work freshman.
“Due to the war, people are sending
mail and things from home to our
soldiers.“

”It‘s hogwash that they have to
raise it," said, Dionte Gentry. a
business management freshman.
“They increase is due to the war.
They should increase the cost of
luxury items instead of necessities."

A few other students said that
they will not mind paying the extra
money for the service they receive.

“It's probably needed and some—
one has to pay the price." said, John
Grider, a finance junior, “Twenty-
nine cents is reasonable for the ser—
vice they provided. and it‘s always
the consumer who hears the burden
of increased operating cost.“

“I can deal with it," said. Scott
McIntosh. an undeclared sopho—
more.

“I think 29 cents for a letter is
reasonable. yet the only people grip-
ping are corporate executives or
people who send a lot of letters.“

Kentucky State University: and Roy
Peterson. assistant to the executive
director of the Kentucky Council on
Higher Education.

Each candidate will spend two
days on campus and Will meet with
students during one-hour sessions at
the Martin Luther King Cultural
Center.

The meetings are Hanks, Thurs-

day at~1:3f‘i pm: James, Feb. I: Lil

hopes the new chancellor Will be in
office between July and August.

Kentucky Kernel, Monday, February 4, 1991 - 3

 

By BOB NORMAN
Sports Editor

In an intense game dictated by
defensive pressure and ferocity.
10th-ranked UK outfought anoth-
er preseason Southeastern Confer-
ence favorite yesterday by making
its opponent see red.

In a 96-84 victory over the
Georgia Bulldogs at Rupp Arena,
the action that occurred while the
game clock was off was often as
entertaining — and as brutal — as
was the action with the clock tick-
ing.

Forget Jamal Mashbum’s roo~
kie-record 31 points. Forget the
fact that John Pelphrey and Junior
Braddy combined for a perfect 10-
10 shooting performance.

Instead, remember this. In the
stands, countless flags and ban-
ners were waved in support of
US. troops in the Persian Gulf.
On the court, blood flowed freely
from bodies clashing.

And recall that referee John
Clougherty was floored by a fly-
ing cheerleader. Remember the
skirmish that broke out on the
same floor, after which 6—foot UK

guard Richie Farmer attempted to maul (+5 Georgia junior Reggie Tinch,
only to be held back by a referee (not Clougherty this time).

“That was a good knock~‘em—out game.” said UK coach Rick Pitino,
whose team improved to 17—3 overall and a Southeastern Conference slate

of9-1.

The game was physical. Fifty-six personal fouls along with a lot of bruis-
es and cuts caused by the slamming action. Farmer sustained a bruised eye.
Georgia’s star guard Litterial Green’s hand and leg bled from cuts.

“It was a ragng game,“ Georgia coach Hugh Durham said. 1 certain-

ly wouldn‘t call that a finesse game."

“It was a typical SEC game," said Green, who finished the game with 21
points on 24 shots. We got frustrated a lot. and that’s why a couple of

fights broke out.”

Mashbum‘s performance, however, was atypical. The 6-8 fledgling
scored a UK freshman record 31 points, breaking Rick Robey's record of
28 points in 1975. He also grabbed eight rebounds, had six steals and

blocked four shots.

“We got a great. monster game from Jamal," Pitino said.

Mashbum came out on fire, showing an extremely soft touch and previ-
ously unseen moves on the court He scored UK‘s first six points and
cruised for a 360-degree spin move basket in UK‘s crucial 12-0 run, which

ended with the Cats on top 21-14 with 9:58 left in the first half.

 

 

Mashbum’s performance couldn‘t have come at a better time. UK’s lead-

Dawgs ‘no big
deal’ for Mash

“J. Mal, no big deal.”

That was John Pelphrey's greet-
ing to Jamal Mashbum in the Wild-
cat locker room yesterday. Of
course, Pelphrey said that wnh a big
sarcastic grin.

You see, Mashbum had JUSI
scorched Georgia for a career-high
31 points, eight rebounds. a career-
high six steals and a tareer-high
four blocks to
lead UK to a 96-
84 win at Rupp
Arena.
