Board names student for

Wingate to serve as liason in Frankfort

 

By Brian Bennett
Senior Staff Writer

 

In an effort to flex a little more
political muscle, the Board of Stu-
dent Body Presidents has appointed
a state coordinator to look out for
student interests in Frankfort.

Paul Wingate, a 23-year—old polit-
ical senior at Nonhem Kentucky
University. will serve as liaison be-

tween student body presidents and
state legislators.

Among his duties will be to sit in
on state education and appropria-
tions committee meetings, organize
student rallies and/or meetings with
the governor and give updates to
the board.

He also will be responsible for all
lobbying action.

Wingate said after he checks leg-
islators‘ voting records on higher

education issues he will begin
placing phone calls and having
lunch with legislators to earn or
keep their support.

One of the main issues he will be
lobbying against is further reduc-
tions of funding for higher educa—
tion.

“Students are notorious for not
participating in politics and not vot-
ing. so politicians feel they can cut

Cola wars hit campus

Coke, Pepsi
mixing it up
across UK

 

By Brian Bennett
Senior Staff Writer

 

When students approach campus
vending machines for beverages
this year, they‘ll find that Coke is it.
But when they want soft drinks at
Food Services locations. they‘ll dis-
cover Pepsi is the only one. baby.

Over the summer. UK took bids
for both vending and fountain soft
drink contracts. UK awarded Pepsi
the contract for fountain drinks and
Coke for vending. reversing the or-
der seen on campus the past four
years.

The last contracts were awarded
in 1989, and the current ones also
run for four years.

The ISO soft-drink vending ma.
chines on campus were changed
during the summer.

Though it was not a factor in de-
ciding the contract. UK avoided any
possible problems with the new on-
campus KFC franchise by giving
the fountain contract to Pepsi. Pep-
siCo owns KFC.

Food Services Director Robert
Braun said even if Coke had won
the contract. there would not have
been a problem because of the loca—
tion of KFC. The chicken restaurant
will be in Blazer Hall, which fea-
tures self-serve drink dispensers.

“What PepsiCo says when you
put in a KFC or a Taco Bell (also
owned by Pepsi) is that if you have
an area outside the restaurant where
customers pick their own beverage.
then it‘s not a problem." Braun said.
“If we had located KFC in an area
that serves soft drinks and rings
them up on the cash register. we
would've had to do some tinkering

Braun said beverage contracts
should not play a major role if the
University decides to install more
franchise restaurants that have a

“If we really wanted to put some-
thing like a Taco Bell in. we would
find a different way of serving soft

drinks in that one area" he said. “It
might affect how we serve beverag-
es. but not the bid itself."

Braun called the bids “pretty ag-

Sea Hero is latest success
for member of equine board

 

By Kathy W. Larkin

World—renowned horse trainer
MacKenzie “Mack" Miller was in-
ducted Monday into the Kentucky
Athletic Hall of Fame

The 71-year-old sportsman. who
is a member of the UK Equine Re-
search Foundation's board of direc-
tors. trained the I993 Kentucky
Derby and Saratoga Travers Stakes
winner Sea Hero.

Miller said he is excited about his
work on the board and looks for-

But winning the coveted Derby.
Miller said. was the “nicest thing to
happen“ during his nearly 50 years
as a trainer.

his career in 1947 at Lexington‘s
Calumet Farm. He later moved to
Louisville and worked with trainer
Kinley Cl-veland.

College
nears end
of search
for dean

By Don Puckett
Senior Staff Writer

After two years and two
search committees. the UK
College of Architecture is one
step away from finding a new
dean.

 

 

Lexington Campus Chancel-
lor Robert Hemenway said he
would recommend David Moh-
ney. an architect from New
York City. for the position. To
complete the selection process,
UK President Charles Wething-
ton must nominate Mohney to
the UK Board of Trustees for
final approval.

The search for a new dean
began in October 1991. After
about a year. the first search
committee nominated a candi-
date who subsequently de-
clined the position.

A second search committee
was formed. and in March it
narrowed a list of 60 candi-
dates to three. Those three cans
didates visited UK and con-
ducted formal interviews with
the committee in March and
April.

The final selection of Moh-
ney was made by Hemenway.
but he said his decision was
based on a recommendation
from the search committee.

If approved by the Board of
Trustees. Mohney would be-
come dean of the College of
Architecture in January. He
would replace Clyde Carpen-
ter. who has been the acting
dean since the resignation of
Jose Oubrerie in July 1991.
Oubrerie left UK to become the
director of the Ohio State Uni-
versity Department of Archi-
tecture.

Mohney would bring with
him an Ivy League education.
He completed his undergradu-
ate work at Harvard University
and received a master‘s degree
in architecture from Princeton
University.

UK Honors Program Direc-
tor Christine Havice. chair-
woman of the search commit-
tee. said the committee was
looking for a candidate who
had both an academic back-
ground and professional experi-
ence.

Mohney was a lecturer for
the Institute for Architecture
and Urban Studies between
1981 and I985. For three of
those years. he was associate
director of education at the In-
stitute and was in charge of the
Undergraduate Education Pro-
gram.

After leaving the Institute.
Mohney became a partner in a
New York Architecture firm.
In six years. his office under-
took nearly 50 design projects.

job here at Northern." he said.

The position of state coordinator
is called for in the constitution of
the board, which is composed of
student govemment presidents of
the eight state-supported universi-
ties and one community college rep-
resentative.

However. there had been no coor-
dinator for the past two years.

“We want to be an effective body
and a more productive branch." said
Lance Dowdy, UK Student Govem-
ment Association president and
chairman of the board.

“As much as I would like to coor-
dinate everything, the University of
Kentucky is going to keep me very
busy. It's nice to have someone to
set up and coordinate our efforts."

Wingate was nominated by Na-
than Smith. NKU‘s student presi-
dent. Wingate won a majority of the
board’s votes.

For his work. Wingate will earn
$150 a semester plus expenses and
travel. But for him. the money is
not a reason for taking the job.

“I‘m interested in going into poli—
tics and this is a good way to get
my foot in the door." he said.

Dowdy names
new legal aide

Position given
to ex-SGA leader
Cyndi Weaver

 

By Lance Williams
News Editor

 

UK‘s Student Government Asso—
ciation is counting on a former pres-
ident to help change the direction of
its student legal service.

Cyndi Weaver. who served as
SGA president during the 1987—88
school year. recently was hired to
take over the position as legal coun-
sel after Keith Baker‘s contract was
not renewed.

Baker served as SGA legal repre—
sentative for the past 14 years.

SGA President Lance Dowdy
said that after talks with past SGA
presidents, he thought a change in
the leadership of the program was
necessary.

“It seemed necessary to me that
we make a change." Dowdy said.
“We wanted to find someone with a
better time commitment."

Although Weaver recently had a
baby. she cunentiy is not working.
and Dowdy said the time she could
commit to the program was a big
factor in the decision.

Hours for the service have not
been finalized. but Weaver will be
in the office on Saturdays this se-
mester, which is the first time this
option ha been offered.

“I can have more time devoted to
forming the program.“ Weaver said.
“We will be looking for other re-
sources and grants."

Weaver will have the same rc-
sponsibilities as Baker for the fall
semester. but Dowdy said plans are
in the works for a program to be set
up in which Weaver would super-
vise law students and allow them to
assist her in giving legal advice to
students.

Weaver's contract runs through
the end of the fall semester. but
plans for the new program. which is
scheduled to begin in the spring. al-
ready are being discussed. Staffing
responsibilities have not yet been
defined.

Weaver expressed interest in
coming back to help the program
get off the ground. “More than like-

ly" she said. “I‘ll stay through the
year.

“If there is an outside official
watching the program. l would love
to retain the position.“

Weaver said she hopes to keep

year. Another goal will be to help
students stay away from trouble be-
fore it starts.

“1 will try and help prevent some
problems before they happen. Some

she said.

Even so. “my goal will be to help
students everyday that I'm here. I
was really involved on campus as a
student. and I think that I am an as-
set. because I know where to send
them."

Baker. who currently runs a law
practice in Lexington. said Dowdy
told him the program would be tak-
ing a different direction and that his
contract would not be renewed.

Baker said Dowdy had spoken
with him about the ideas for the
new program. but Baker said he had
some concenis about it.

“I explained to lance that there
are some inherent problems with us-
ing law students because of the
problems that could develop wrth
inconsistent advice. unless you are
able to teach commonality among
the advice that is given." he said.

David Shipley. dean of the (‘ol-
lege of Law said SGA‘ s nex ap-
proach has two positive aspects
First. he said the program would be
good for the college and its stu-
dents; and second, it would help
them gain more experience.

“Initially. I don‘t see any barriers
to let law students help the attor-
ney." said Shipley, who added that
most of the problems students bring
to the attorney deal either with ten.
tal agreements or traffic violations.

“The one thing that I would want
to make sure of is that they are not
practicing law.“ Shipley said.

UK’s Ralston-Flory ready to go

Volleyball coach has visions of championships dancing in her head

 

3! TV “PM
Sports Editor

Fran Ralston-Flory recently was
medhcadcoachoftthKvol-
leyball team, but that‘s not her
biggest concern.

“Right now. I‘m trying to figure
outhowtouseallthetalentwe
have on this team." she said, reveal-
ing her anticipation of the season
with a slight giggle.

The Wildcms return five of six
smers from last year‘s team. which
finished the season 25-9 and ad-
vamd to the NCAA Final 16. UK
is ranked 14th in the preseason poll
by Volleyball Monthly and 18th by
the Amerim Volleyball Coaches
Association.

Ralston-Flory was an assistant
coach at LSU when the Tigers be-

came the first team to advance to
the Final Four. She compared this
year’s Cats to that LSU team.

“Talent-wise, this team has as
much or more talent. We are differ
ent in the style we play. but athleti-
cally the two are about the same."

Getting the head coaching posi-
tion at UK was in the back of Rais-
ton-Hory's mind when she was
hired in March as associate coach.
but she didn't think it would come
this quickly.

“It was something that was men—
tioned when l was interviewed. I
didn‘t think it was going to happen
this fast. but we are making a good
transition." she said.

That transition is from fonner

promoted to associate athletics di-

coaches.

”The team has made the switch
pretty well." Ralston-Hory said.

"It was pretty easy for me. since
(DeBoer) and l have the same basic
philosophy on how to play the
game. I focus a little more on de-
t‘ense than she did. but we are pretty
close."

Ralston-Flory said UK will hire
an associate coach at or near the end
of the season.

As for this season. the Wildcats
are full of promise.

“I think it will be an emotional
year," Ralston-Flory said. “We have
three seniors. all of whom haven't
accomplished what they want yet,
which is a ring on their finger. We
think we have a good shot at it."

This season‘s stars promise to be
no different than those in the past.

Seniors lane Belanger and Eunice
Thomas. coupled with the talents of
junior Krista Robinson and sopho~
more Molly Dreisbach, give UK a

potent lineup.

“Jane Belanger has shown tre-
mendous leadership since she‘s
been here," Ralston-Flory said.
“Her experience and abilities on the
court will be vitally important to
our team this year. All of the sen-
iors will give us leadership. Molly
is in the best shape of her life. and
she will be a major contributor."

UK's season begins Sept. 1 with a
road match at Miami (Ohio). The
Cats play their first home matches
Sept. 3-4 during the Big Four Clas-
sic with Louisville. Notre Dame and
Indiana.

Wildcat Lodge closed

 

By Brant Watch

By now, most students have al-
ready settled into their residence
balls or apartments for the duration
of the semester.

But members of the UK basket-
ball team and others slated to occu-
py Joe B. Hall Wildcat Lodge will
have to wait until this weekend for a
campus home.

In the meantime. they've been
staying at the Campbell House Inn.
1375 Harrodsburg Road. because
renovations took longer than ex-
pected at Wildcat Lodge.

“We‘ll have them back by either
Friday or Saturday at the latest."
said Larry Ivy. associate director of
athletics and internal affairs. "I" he
athletic department is paying for

them to stay in the Campbell House.
We decided upon the Campbell
House because of it's convenience
ulcempus."

“The renovations were supposed

to be completed two weeks ago and‘

the team was supposed to move in
this past weekend," UK Athletics
Director CM. Newton said. “But
that's how things go. The renova-
tions took a little longer dmn ex-
pected."

Ivy said only minor. but neces-
sary, changes were being made.

“We've laid some new carpeting,
painted and are putting study desks
in the rooms," Ivy said. “It was real-
ly in need of a good cleaning. At
one time it looked like the Taj Ma-
hal. but it was getting to the point
where it was embarrassing to take a
recruit there. It looked awful."

Rating: 3 out of 4 CDs

By Randy Yargor
Contributing Critic

Bill y Joel
River of Dreams
Columbia Records

 

 

Thirteen is a lucky number for
the Piano Man.

After a decade of producing in-
creasingly commercial music. Bil-
ly Joel is in rare form with a return
to his rocking blue-collar roots on
River ofDreams. his 13th album.

Joel rocks harder than he has in
a while. but the slick pop is not
gone — itjust has more hean. Joel
shows us on the hit title track that
Top 40 music can have soul, with
a 'SOs-style melody and a rhyth-

mic. almost African-style beat.

Ballads also abound on this di-
verse album. proving that the “An-
gry Young Man" is no longer ei-
ther young or angry — and proud
of it. There is the catchy. obvious-
ly Christy Brinkley-inspired
“Blondc Over Blue" zutd “All
About Soul," along with the inti-
mate, unaccompanied “Lullabye
(Goodnight, My Angel)."

Joel speeds things up a bit on
the mid-tempo “'l‘wo Thousand
Years," giving a future vision of a
beautiful utopia that will rise frotn
our Iess-than—perfect world:
“There will be miracles/after the
last war is won/Science and poet—
ry/nrle in the new world to come."

But while dreaming of a perfect
future. Joel doesn‘t neglect the
problems of the present. “No
Man‘s Land" is a not-so—subtle
satire of modern suburbia: "Give

 
 
  
  
 
  
 

   

us this day our daily discount out-
let merchandise/Raise up a multi-
plex and we will make a sacrifice."

Of course. any “)(is satire would
be incomplete without a reference
to Amy Fisher. “Lots more to read
about Lolita and suburban lust,"
Joel sings.

Joel balances his intelligent rock
with a few of the pop songs that
made Storm Front and The Bridge
hits. “Great Wall of China" and “A
Minor Variation" both ring with
keyboards and catchy hooks that
only rise above mediocrity because
of guitar veteran Leslie West.

But the highlight of the album
comes when Joel reunites with

way between Vine and Main
streets.

The party. which starts Friday
evening at 5:30. is the “premier
event for the Midsummer Night‘s
Run.“ said Rose Lucas of the
Downtown Lexington Corpora-
tion.

The run. an annual 5.000-meter
foot race, is scheduled this year
for Aug. 28. Registration booths
for the race will be set up Friday
in Triangle Park.

“If this event is a success." Lu-
cas said, “there will be many
more in the future for Lexington.
It is hoped that this will be the be-
ginning of a regular end-of—the-

Midsummer Night‘s Fun is the
result of the efforts of mrmy
downtown businesses joining to-
gether to sponsor a prmy in Trian-
gle Park, Lucas said.

The party will include a concert
by Two Highways. a pop/

"There is plenty of room to

said. “I hope a lot of UK students
will come and help make the par-

long-time friend and drummer
Liberty DeVitto for the garage

Joel shows his maturity by reveal-
ing that the world is no long black
or white to him. “These days the
edges are blurred. I'm old and
tired of war/I hear the other man‘s
words/ I'm not that sure any-
more."

This definitely isn‘t the same
Billy Joel that stormed the world
20 years ago. His fire has been
tempered by marriage and by the
binh of his daughter Alexa Ray,
now seven. He’s more mature
and, after a couple of albums of
uncertain pop. he finally is com-
fortable with maturity.

If you thought Joel has been a
sell-out for the past decade or so,
give this album a try. You might
agree with the closing song. “lia-

Loan default rates
high at 3 Ky. schools

 

Associated Press

 

LOUISVILLE. Ky. —- Three
technical schools in Kentucky had a
100 percent default rate in a stu-
dent-loan program in 1991. accord-
ing to a US Department of Educa-
tion repon released Tuesday.

But those numbers are mislead-
ing, a state official said.

Delmus Murrell. director of
school operations in the Deparunent
for Technical Education. said the
defaults involved only one student
at each of the three schools. But
since only one student took pan in
the program at those schools, it rep-
resented a 100 percent failure rate.

Murrell said the numbers of 5m-
dents in default at the three techniv
cal schools were barely a fraction of
the number of students getting
loans at other schools.

The three schools with 100 per-
cent default rates are the Green
County Area Vocational Education
Center in Greensburg, the Marion
County Area Vocational Education
Center in Lebanon and the Webster
County Area Vocational Education
Center in Dixon.

“We are taking action to get the
default rates down with the finan-
cial aid officers within those
schools " Murrell said.

The list showed the default rates

for Kentucky schools under the
Federal Family Education Loan
Program. Technical schools domi-
nated the list. which included pub-
lic, private and proprietary institu-
tions.

The Donia School of Beauty (‘ul-
ture. a proprietary school in Louis-
ville. followed the three technical
schools with a 72.4 percent default
rate in 1991.

A state vocational-technical
school in Madisonville was next
with a 71.4 percent rate. Technical
schools in llopkinsville and May-
field ranked seventh and eighth,
with default rates of 57.1 percent
and 46.7 percent, respectively.

The report indicated that other
Kentucky technical school had im-
proved their default rates, Murrell
said.

For instance. the Central Ken-
tucky State Vocational Technical
School in Lexington had a default
rate of 18.3 percent in 1991. down
from about 26 percent the previous
year, he said.

The default rate at the Mayo
State Vocational Technical School
in Paintsville declined from 22.3
percent in 1990 to 16.8 percent in
1991, Murrell said. And the techni-
cal school in Somerset had its de-
fault rate drop from
