Hemenway dedicated to UK agenda

By GREGORY A. HALL
Senior Staff Writer

Just because Chancellor for the
Lexington Campus Robert Hemen-
way was a candidate in one presi-
dential search does not mean his
bags are packed, waiting for anoth-
er opportunity to leave UK.

“I suspect that anybody who has
ever worked with me very closely
has a very clear understanding of
my commitment to making a better
campus,” Hemenway said Friday.

“The fact that I was involved in one
presidential search does not mean
that I’m going to be involved in
every new presidential search that
comes along."

Nov. 10, Hemenway was an-
nounced as one of four finalists for
the presidency at the University of
Nebraska. The Board of Regents in-
terviewed the candidates and inter-
im president Martin Massengale.
By Thursday. Hemenway and the
other three extemal finalists had
pulled out of the search.

The second-year chancellor
doesn’t allow his name to be con-
sidered for all presidential searches.
He was nominated for the UK presi-
dency but withdrew immediately.

“People ought to remember that I
have a 17-year investment in this
campus,” said Hemenway, formerly
a chairman of UK’s English Depart-
ment and University of Oklahoma’s
arts and sciences dean. “I don't take
lightly the idea of being considered
for a presidency at some other carn-

n

pus.

The native Nebraskan and gradu-
ate of NU's Omaha Campus said
the reasons he allowed himself to
be considered were “primarily that
I'm from Nebraska and that it’s a
major university."

Many characterize Hemenway as
the academic leader of the main
campus and say they were scared
that he may be leaving.

“The people I've talked to have
been quite understanding of why I
might be nominated to the Nebras-
ka position," he said.

Hemenway referred to initiatives
he has begun, saying they have not
been completed.

“I feel that I have an unfinished
agenda." Hemenway said. “Until
that agenda is completed or until
Kentucky tells me that they don’t
want me. I plan to be here."

Hemenway was hired under for-
mer UK President David Roselle,
who resigned in December for the
presidency at the University of Del-
aware. However, he said he does
not intend to leave because of UK’s

Crime stats
to go public

By KEITH GOLDSCHMIDT
College Information Network

TALLAHASSEE — While many college and
university officials worry that parents and students
will misinterpret campus crime statistics, a Florida
educator told administrators Thursday to trust the
public.

“I don’t think we should make judgments on
their knowledge of crime." said Arthur Sandeen.
vice president for student affairs at the University
of Florida. which was terrorized two months ago
by five student deaths within a mile of campus,

Sandeen and several others participated in a
Thursday teleconference on campus swun’ty that
was broadcast to 155 campuses in Canada and the
United States, including Florida State University.
That‘s much more than other successful programs.
which routinely attract about 60 campuses.

But this one struck home because colleges and
universities are required to make campus crime
statistics available to the public by 1992. President
Bush signed the Student Right-to-Know and Cam-
pus Security Act last weekend.

“The legislation will promote more communica-
tion." said Jim Caswell. a Southern Methodist
University official. “It will force us to get togeth-
er."

And that's what campuses need to combat
crime. the panel agreed.

Until recently. little attention has been paid to
campus crime. Only about 350 of about 3.000 col-
leges and universities report their crimes to the
Uniform Crime Report. a national system.

Only 10 states have — or are considering ——
laws that do that Florida’s I989 law says statis-
tics are available upon request. and Sandeen said
the UF has reported crimes since I874.

U.S. schools lagging, Glenn says

By APRIL PHILLIPS
Contributing Writer

The American school system — now
ranked 30th in the world —— lacks the nec-
essary elements to produce successful
adults who benefit society and them-
selves, according to a national consultant
on education.

In the traditional one-room school sys-
tem, children were taught by one teacher
and felt part of a group, H. Stephen Glenn
said. But since 1951. education has
changed from dialogue and collaboration
to lectures, standard tests. and stereotyp-
ing.

“Teachers say, ‘trust me for two weeks
and let me trick you on Friday,’ “ Glenn
said at Georgetown College‘s recent
Champion Against Drugs seminar on the
US. school system.

Glenn. a consultant for education. alco-

holism, and drug abuse agencies through-
out the country, has worked closely with
five US. administrations, dating back to
President Johnson. He was the force be-
hind Nancy Reagan’s “Just Say No" cam-
paign, and was honored by Reagan as one
of the nation's most outstanding family
life and prevention professionals.

According to Glenn, the principles of
education should be: dialogue between
teacher and student, collaboration, letting
children know they are wanted. interac-
tion between the more mature and less
mature. and firmness with dignity and re-
spect.

“You need to work with kids, not teach
them through education," Glenn said.
“Every program that shows an increase in
education has something to do with at
least one of these principles."

One problem is that teachers are into
standardization. They judge students with

standardized tests such as the IQ and
Standard Aptitude Tests that measure the
norm and allow no room for deviance.
and can put gifted children at high risk.

"In education gifted means deviant
different,“ Glenn said. adding a statistic
that 19 percent ofjuvenile delinquents are
gifted.

But children’s needs in education cx-
tend beyond learning the basics.

“The most critical human need is to
find the meaning, purpose. and/or signifi-
cance to life," Glenn said.

To meet this need in the school system.
Glenn said a student must experience be»
ing understood _,, not just heard but gcn-
urnely listened to ,,,. and must also feel
acceptance and affirmation.

in education has led US. administrations

Students host rally for Galbraith

By CHRIS GRIGGS
Contributing Writer
and MARY MADDEN
Staff Writer

When the Monks of Grosvenor decided
to have a fundraiser for Gatewood Gal-
braith. it turned into more of a campaign
rally.

The five UK students who call them-
selves the Monks of Grosvenor held the
rally Saturday at their house on Grosven-
or Avenue. They didn't raise a lot of
money for the campaign — only $30. but
they helped Galbraith. a Democratic can-
didate for governor. get some publicity
and support from UK students.

Jeff Henderson. a public relations jun-
ior and resident involved in Galbraith‘s
rally. said they held the fundraiser “partly

to raise money for Gatewood but mostly
to expose people to his ideas."

Galbraith spoke to a crowd of about
200 students Saturday night at the fund-
raiser. said Ian Vincent. a forestry conser-
vation sophomore who lives at the house.
Galbraith spoke about legalization of
marijuana — the major plank in his gu-
bernatorial platform -— and explained his
plans for the revenue he said Kentucky
would gain from taxing the now-illegal
plant

Improving education, he said. is his
first priority. Using the money collected
from hemp taxation. Galbraith said he
wants to raise teaching salaries in Ken-
tucky to get the best teaching staff possi-
ble for the commonwealth's schools. He
wants to make Kentucky number one in
something besides “teenage pregnancies

and illiteracy." he said.

Galbraith also said the money could of-
fer a “hot breakfast" to any student who
wants one even if the student can't pay
for it. “We can‘t expect our teachers to
educate students coming to school with a
breakfast consisting of a Twinkle and a
Mountain Dew." he said.

Legalization of hemp would also be
good for the envrronmcnt. he said, by de-'
creasing the number of trees cut for paper
production. According to Galbraith's
campaign literature. “about half the fo-
rests in the world have been cut down
since the I930s to make paper." In l9l6,
the US. Department of Agriculture deter-
mined that one acre of hemp can produce
the paper of four acres of trees.

"Akinwande Oluwole Soyinka \
(sho-YlN-ka). the 52-year-old
winner of the 1986 Nobel Literature
Award. is a man of convictions so
deep that he once took over a
radio station in his home country
to stop the speech of a prime
minister he considered corrupt.

Later. the Rockefeller Research
Fellow and African drama
specialist at Nigeria's University of
lbadan interfered with the Nigerian
government‘s war against the
province of Biafra, which led to his
being imprisoned for more than
two years. Soyinka languished in
a solitary confinement cell for all
but six of those 27 months.

It is these and other widely
varied experiences that provide
grist for some of Soyinka's
writings. stage directing and
acting. But he has supplemented
those elements by studying the
truths of human nature through
the eyes of Shakespeare and
Japanese, Spanish and lrish
playwrights.

Soyinka, the first black to attain
the world’s highest literary honor,
authored a book of the notes he
wrote while in prison. In addition,
he's written 14 plays, two novels
and four books of poetry. Often
honored as he is. Soyinka remains
humble it blunt. He is undeniably
proud of his Alricanness."

‘Superior’ Gators maul UK 45-17

By DWAYNE HUFF
Staff Writer

For one quarter of Saturday’s
football game against Florida. UK
looked as if it ,
could beat the
world.

In that initial
15 minutes, the
Cats out-hit, out-
passed, out-ran
and out-hustled
their way to a 9-

7 lead over the
fifth-ranked Ga-
tors. CURRY

But the dream game didn‘t last
for long.

Florida began the second quarter
with a Shane Matthews 16-yard
touchdown pass to Ernie Mills for a
14-9 Florida lead.

That was just the beginning of a
nightmare quarter for the Cats. The
Gators added two more touchdowns
and a field goal for 24 points and a
31-9 halftime advantage.

The second half was more of the
same. as Florida piled on two more
touchdowns and another field goal
— and eventually won 47-15.

UK coach Bill Curry was duly
impressed with Florida before the
game —- and even more so after-
ward.

“That’s obviously a vastly superi-
or football team on the other side,
and they whipped us in every way
that you can whip somebody," Cur-
ry said. “That‘s one of the best
teams I‘ve ever coached against
They remind me a lot of last year's
Miami team."

Cun'y, however, believes there is
no need to scrutinize the game and
point out UK’s mistakes.

“There is nothing to analyze in
this game." he said. “We just got
beat in every dimension of the

game. it would be hard to say
whether that we were that poor or
they were that good, but a big pan
of it was that they are that good."
The most glaring aspect was Flor-
ida’s dominant passing game. Mat-

thews' expert readings of UK’s de-

fensive sets allowed the sophomore
quarterback to tear apart the UK
secondary with relative case.

“It was like their press box knew
what we were doing," Gary Willis
said. “I mean, he would come up to

. I the line and he knew when we were
“ in a man or a combination defense.

He knew who was in man and went
to them."

Matthews was impressive in com-
pleting 20 of 37 passes for 303
yards and four touchdowns.

Most of Florida’s big plays came
when Matthews took advantage of
several man-on-man situations
caused by Curry’s game plan to put
pressure on the Gator quarterback.

“Our defensive backs made a lot
of good plays, but they also got beat
a lot by a really outstanding quarter-
back and group of wide receivers,”
Curry said. “We were getting beat
in the open field by superior ath-
letes."

Matthews made adjustments at
the line of scrimmage and came
through on nearly every given op-
portunity, usually picking on the de-
fensive backs caught in man-to-man
situations.

Florida's running game also
flourished in the second half, as the
combination of Errict Rhett and
Willie McClendon chewed up 204
yards on the ground.

“They ran the ball down our
throats,” Holleran said.

But UK’s running game was vir-
tually non-existent, finishing with
only 19 yards on 27 attempts.

With the win, the Gators assured
themselves of a 6-1 Southeastern

UK tailback Al Baker was greeted at the line of scrimmage by Florida defensive end Mark Murray during action in Saturday’s
game at Commonwealth Stadium. Both Baker and the Wildcats were manhandled by the Gators, who rolled to a 47-15 victory.

Conference record. First«year coach
Steve Spurrier was full of praise for
his team.

“I’ve got to believe this is the best
team in the SEC.” he said. “We’re
No. 1 in offense and No. 1 in de-
fense."

Dcfensively, the Cats started the
game on a positive note.

However, Florida took the lead
when Godfrey Myles picked off a
Freddie Maggard pass and ran it
back for a 52-yard touchdown.

But on the next possession, Mag-
gard swung a screen pass out to Al
Baker on the right flat, and the sen-
ior tailback bolted down the side-
line for a 73-yard touchdown.

That was it offensively for UK
until the fourth quarter. when back—
up quarterback Ryan Hockman cn-
ginccrcd an ll-play, 87-yard drive
that was capped off by a one-yard
run.

During the Cats‘ scoring drought,
Florida took advantage of some UK
tumovcrs and rolled up 37 unan-

swered points.

Florida now advances to 9-1 for
the year and will finish its season in
two weeks at Florida State.

UK falls to 4-6 overall and 3-3 in
the SEC.

The Cats will wind up the season
Saturday at Tennessee.

basketball — so I won’t have to
watch contests like Saturday's char-
ity game to benefit the Catholic
Newman Center.

Actually, the game turned out to
be a fun exhibition of not-so-great
basketball that featured some raw
talent, some really out of shape par-
ticipants. some old-timers and some
downright bad players.

Although nobody really cared
who won, the Reds downed the un-
derachieving UK coaching staff, 73-
64.

The game lacked merit because
only three Reds showed up. Tim
Binsas, Hal Morris and Tom
Browning were the only current
Reds who participated. but former
infielder Doug Flynn also was
there. Former UK players Jim Mas-
ter and Kyle Macy also suited up
for the winners.

It’s probably a good thing that
they did, because the Reds players
definitely were out of shape and
wouldn't have made it to halftime
on their own.

Master and Morris came through
with some sparkling threeopointers
and three-point plays down the
stretch to lock up the win.

Actually, it looked as if the Reds
were dogging it. when they proba-
bly could have beaten the UK staff
by 50 points. Macy could have
dominated the game, but then it
wouldn‘t have been any fun.

Here‘s a report card on the
players, explaining just how good
(or bad) they really were. And some
of the lucky ones also got nick-
names.

There were three big disappoint-
ments about the UK team. one of
which was assistant coach Billy
Donovan's performance. I remem-
ber Donovan's years under Pitino at
Providence when he wreaked havoc
on opposing defenses with his lane-
range jumpers. Billy the Kid, as he
is affectionately known. came out
firing blanks on his three-pointers
and finished with only 10 points.

Another disappointment was the
defensive tactics of strength coach
Ray "Rock" Oliver, who played
about four minutes and had four
fouls. mostly at the expense of Mas-
ter's body and face. Maybe they
should change his nickname to
“Cheap Shot Artist” or “Mini Mike
Tyson." Or better yet. “Rock Head"
— because he sure didn't think on

the court. Hey Rock, it was only a
game — for charity.

One thing‘s for sure — Master
didn’t shake Oliver's hand after the
game.

The last big downer was Frank
Crumley. I’ve given Frank a nick-
name —— “O-fer." That's right. the
normally potent three-point threat
came up empty-handed. Zero
points. Not one basket. He even
shot an air ball.

While Oliver and Crumley got
‘F’s, Donovan got a ‘0’ and assist-
ant coach Orlando “Tubby" Smith
earned an ‘A+.’ Smith was all over
the offensive and defensive glass
and scored 18 points. Dick Vitale
would have called him “.Mr Intensi-
ty.” Great job, Tubby.

Pitino turned in a gritty perfor-
mance, making some dazzling pass-
es while scoring 12 points on three
three—pointers and leading his
team's offense.

However, Pitino missed a breaka-
way layup, drawing boos from the
crowd. Yes, you heard me right ——
Pitino was booed. That’s possibly
the last time he will ever hear nega-
tive reaction from a UK crowd.

So, Rick, remember that little in-
cident when you jumped all over
John Pelphrey for trying to dunk, or
Gimel Martinez for shooting out—
side of 15 feet?

The bad thing about Pitino miss-
ing the layup was that he took a had
shot on the next trip down the
court, trying to make up for his
blown gimme.

Wait just a second. Rick! Don’t
think you got away without a grade
or a nickname. How about a solid
‘B’ and “The Bronx Bomber,” be-
cause you were really launching the
threes.

But the game wouldn’t have been
complete without sharp-shooter
Stan “Who" Key. Why “Who?” Be-
cause nobody knew who he was.

Key scored 15 points and gave
the team a charge late in the game
to reuievc the staff’s momentum.
He gets an ‘A-.'

The other team wasn‘t exactly a
group of world-boaters. though.

Why? Well, a rusty Master
missed two of four free throws and
made a number of tuniovers. He
Still had 18 points. I’ll give him a
‘B+.'

How about Mom's? He had a
great game with 17 points and some
acrobatic plays. As Dick Vitalc
would say, “He’s a P’TPcr. Prime
Time Performer, baby. Let's give
him an ‘A.’ "

Birtsas was the biggest player on
the court, both in height and girth.
Naturally, he was all over the board
and finished with 13 points. Birtsas
went down with a twisted ankle car-
ly in the fourth quarter on a last-
break attempt, but he recovered,
caming himself a ‘B+.’

Browning had a decent game and
hit a big three-pointer late in the
game. Although the scruffy-looking
southpaw didn’t play much, he did
do a respectable job while he was in
the game. scoring seven points.
Some turnovers lowered his rating
to a ‘B-.'What about Flynn? Well,
he didn‘t even score. ‘D.’

After the comical exhibition
game, the UK basketball team had
its own scrimmage.

And after watching Rick‘s Re-
jects vs. the No Shows. the basket-
ball’s scrimmage looked more like a
Detroit Pistons intrasquad game.

No more scrimmages, please!

Bear Bryant once said that a tie
is kind of like kissing your sister.
It feels good. but it doesn’t get you
anywhere.

But in the case of the UK Cool
Cats, a tie against a superior Hai-
leybury College team probably
will be one of the most memorable
moments of their season.

The Cool Cats managed to score
with just three seconds left in Fri-
day night's game against Hailey-
bury to end the match in a 5-5 tie.

Entering the third period with
the Canadians up 4-], UK turned
goalie Trevor Desrosier’s evening
into a nightmare as the Cool Cats
scored four unanswered goals.

“The third period has been ours
for the last two years, and we just
caught them off guard." Cool Cats
defenseman Jeff Cooper said.

The Cool Cats ran their record
to 8-1-1 after finishing the week-
end series with one loss and one
tie. The games were crucial for the
Cool Cats. who are trying to quali-
fy for the National Invitational
Hockey Tournament.

 

Against Haileybury,

“Tying them the first night put
us on the map, the committee will
take notice." UK winger Jason
Smithwick said.

Leading the Cool Cats' third pe-
riod eruption was Smithwick, who
scored two goals, and center Chad
Cooper and winger Nick Peligrcn,
who each contributed a goal of
their own.

But it was right winger Roy
Henry‘s goal with just three scc«
onds left that proved to be the dif-
fcrence between a tie and a loss for
UK.

The second match of the two-
gamc series was not as pretty for
the Cool Cats. The Miners domi-
nated play throughout. as UK had
few scoring opportunities. The
Miners. who seemed unhappy after
their letdown on Friday night,
came back Saturday night to beat
the Cool Cats 8-2.

Hailcybury College, Ontario
Canada's Ticr ll defending Cham-
pions, was led by center Dean
Starkell and winger Bino Visco-
vich.

The Cool Cats are idle next
weekend, but will play University
of Dayton the following weekend.

Cross country team to run
for national championship

By 11" WIESENHAHN
Staff Writer

Since the beginning of the season,
UK cross country coach Don Weber
has preached tirelessly to his team
about the importance of running in-
spired races. And last weekend in
Greenville, SC. at the NCAA Dis-
trict 3 Cross Country Champion-
ships, Weber‘s gospel came alive.

Sophomore George Yiannelis
edged several runners in the final
mile of the district race, securing a
third-place team finish for UK and
propelling the 11th ranked Cats into
today’s NCAA Cross Country Na-
tional Championships in Knoxville,
Tenn.

“At the beginning of the season,
we were so confident with our
depth being our strong point for the
men’s team, with all the runners we
had returning," Weber said. “Then
