Student Center cafeteria eliminates hot lunch

By ANDY ELBON
Staff Writer

The hot lunch provided by the Stu-
dent Center Cafeteria will soon be
gone.

The Office of the Vice Chancellor
for Administration has approved a
UK Food Services recommendation
to change the cafeteria’s current
noon meal menu.

Calling the cafeteria an “ineffi-
cient serVice." L'K Food Services dis
rector Allen Rieman said the break-
fast and lunch serVice provided by
the cafeteria did not justify main-
taining the large staff neccessary
for preparing the full cafeteria
meal

“The Student Center has tried to
be all things to all people.” Rieman

said. “It becomes inefficient to
serve that wide variety for a short
period of time. "

“We're losing money on that cafe-
teria line." said Jack Blanton, vice
chancellor for administration. He
said the reasons for the change were
not entirely financial, however. but
that the switch in menus was “in re-
sponse to requests from stu-
dents.“

Rieman said the cafeteria will try
to reflect the changing diet trends of
its customers, eliminating meats
with gravy and other fattening
foods. The cafeteria will now offer a
pasta bar and stir-fried vegetables
on its menu. in addition to other new
items,

clash over economy

By JOHN. Jl'RY
Staff Writer

Debate fever continued last night
in Lexmgton as L'S Sen Walter
””Dee Huddleston and Republican
Mitch McConnell squared off in a
state-wide television event

In the wake of Sunday nights
presidential debate. which ad-
dressed domestic economic issues
tor the most part. the Senate candi-
dates repeatedly alluded to a bal-
anced budget and the massive
spending defiCit

“l've supported resolutions to re-
quire that the praident submit a
balanced budget to Congress." Hud-
dleston said“l do support certain
spending cuts "

“The recovery has already taken
$50 billion off the federal deficit."
McConnell said "It appears that the
recovery is having a Significant ef-
fect on narrowing the deficit "

"Dee Huddleston complaining
about deficiLs is about like Jack
Daniels preaching about illegal
whiskey." he said

Questions were asked by a panel
of journalists from across the state
which included Mike Brown of the
Louisvtlle Courierrlournal. DaVid
Holwerk. editorial page editor of the
Lexmgton Herald-Leader. and Dave
Nakdimen of WAVE-TV in Louis
ville Al Smith. publisher of the Lon-
don Scnti‘nel Echo. served as modere
ator

The debate was broadcast over
Kentucky Educational TeleviSion

McConnell said that some of the
defense cuts he favors are in non-
strategic areas which “account for
85 percent of the defense budget "

Huddleston. who serves on the ln-
telligence and Agriculture commit.
tees in Congress. said that he op-
poses the MX missile funding. "it
«the MX missiler does not increase
our nuclear capabilities by one bit."
he said,

He said he is concerned with con-
ventional areas that are not as ex-
pensive. such as better training and
better equipment. and “we dont
need $7.000 coffee makers on our
airplanes ”

McConnell repeatedly alluded to
the voting record of Huddleston. who
defended it quite vehemently

"He has voted to raise taxes 44
times in the last 12 years." McCon-
nell said "l can't think of anything
that he is favor of cutting "

Huddleston said. however. that he
has ”opposed six straight tax in-
creases."

McConnell. whose television ad-
vertisements have criticed Huddles—
ton’s voting absences. again re-
ferred to the absences last night.
saying Huddleston missed votes ”to
supplement his income" with out-

Huddleston said that many of the

"frivolous." and that valuable issues

Task force focuses on

issues of campus safety

By ANDREW DAVIS
Senior Staff Writer

John Cain and Barbara Holthaus
are. like many other students. con-
cerned about campus safety.

But unlike others. Cain and Hol-
thaus are d0ing something about it.
They're the cochairpersons of the
SpeCial Task Force on Campts Safe-
ty.

The task force was the idea of Stu-
dent Government Association Presi-
dent Tim Freudenberg. The commit-
tee held an open forum last night to
gather views on campus safety.

"I think the murder on campus
this summer really shook every-
body." Cain said. referring to the
June 9 murder of Lin-Jung Chen. a
student who was strangled while
working late on a research project
in the Chemistry-Physics Building.

Cain said he did not think the

campus was unsafe. but he felt there
was always room for improvement.
The goal of the group is to find out
what the specific safety problems
are and who students can complain
to.

Stephanie Prater of Alpha Gamma
Delta attended the meeting She said
many of her sorority sisters do not
feel safe walking alone on the cam-
pus. especially behind Anderson
Hall and the Commerce Building
and the pathway by Maxwell Place.
home of President Otis A. Sin-
gletary.

“It‘s not that the campus is un-
safe." Prater said. "but there are
rare instances. and you don‘t want
to be a rare instance."

Susan White. a member of Social-
ly Concerned Students. said her resi-
dent adviser tells her constantly not
to walk alone on campus after dark.

structural changes." Rieman said.
adding that the cost of the changeov-
er will be “basically nothing " He
said that the project will be done
during the next four weeks. with
completion targeted for Nov 1

Mark Denomme. service manager
of the Student (‘enter cafeteria. said
most of the external changes will be
"cosmetic." with new signs. plants.
and a new paint Job for the serving
area.

Preparation of the new menu will
not require the large staff now work-
ing in the cafeterias kitchen. Four-
teen of those 16 workers now will be
staffed at other campus cafeterias.
while two others will be employed
elsewhere on campus

“I think they should have given us

a little more notice." said Ann
Roark. a cafeteria worker. She and
her covworkers were informed of the
change last Monday. “It was a
shocker. let me tell you."

“I‘ve got to be transferred and i
don't like it . . 1 like where l am
now." said Elizabeth Gentry. Both
she and Roark will be working at
Blazer Hall.

According to Rieman. Blazer
Hall‘s cafeteria will now provide a
"full cafeteria meal" for those still
wanting a hot noon meal

Not all the cafeteria workers are
angry over the change. George Lin-
ton. a baker at the cafeteria. said
that he didn't mind transferring to
Blazer Hall. “as long as I got a
job.“ He said that he hoped to be

doing the same work. but he doesn't
know yet what his exact duties will
be

"It‘s a shock, but it‘s fine — as
long as you've got another job." said
Eric Adams, one of two workers
who will now be employed outside of
Food Services. "They could have
said you’re out of a job."

But some of the regular customers
of the Student Center cafeteria ~
who number more than 2.000 on
some days. according to the cafete-
ria‘s offices —- are confused over the
Food Services‘ action.

“I think it‘s a big mistake. We
have a lot of people who count on
here for their main meal.“ said
Mary Young of the Department of
Mines and Minerals. “I think we

have enough short order places "

“I think it's a lot better than cafe~
terias at other dorms.” said Michael
Sturgill. an electrical engineering
senior. "It’s more convenient l'd
like toseeitstay open '

Suzanne FeliCiano. a political sci.
ence senior. said. "I Just don't think
it's a good idea I mean. Just look at
all the people in here If there were
few people it would be different "

But both Rieman and Blanton said
that the cafeteria is losing money
"Students still have a Wide. wide op»
portunity.” Blanton said He added
that keeping the cafeteria open
would result in higher prices

"It's like taxes.“ he said "You
want good roads. but you don‘t want
to pav taxes."

service really has its advantages

service after one operated by his

The livery. at 171 Saunier Ave.
was built originally as a stable ap-
proximately 100 years ago About 14
tons of scrap steel had to be remov-
ed from the premises to return the
building to its original use

The livery caters to many differ-
ent tastes among carriage afficiona-
dos. and recently the carriages

court in the pageant Saturday

“We do weddings and special

events" also. Pulliam said

"We get a lot of conventions and
we get a lot of students.“

People often take the carriages to
celebrate special occasions like
birthdays and anniversaries.

"I've been on tour wrth peoplt
who have gotten engaged in the car

said,

Rodgers feels
theater offers
unique insight

By LYN (‘ARLISLE
Reporter

The heavy red velvet curtain slow-
ly rises revealing to a hmhed audi-
ence the result of many imagina-
tions working toward one goal. one
work of art that can never be
equaled ~v the magic of theater

This kind of awe-inspiring effect is
now being perfected at the UK Fine
Arts Building, and much ot the cred-
it can go to one man —~ James Rodg-
ers. theater department chairmar

Rodgers. who received his doctor»
ate front Wayne State L'niverSity in
Michigan. has been teaching at UK
tor seven years He is currently di-
rec-ting a play he wrote A an adap-

tation of Charles Dickens A Tale of

Two Cities The play is scheduled to
open Thursday

The production. a near exact rep»
resentation of Dickens“ novel. con-
5ists of an ensemble of 16 actors and
demands audience participation and
imagination.

One reason for this is Rodgers‘ be-
liet that adults are not given enough
opportunity to use their imagina-
tions

"I worry about the younger gener-
ation because everything is spoon
fed to them." Rodgers said "The-
ater can force them to use imagina-
tion. while TV is a medium that
can't Though TV has its good
points. it shows you what is actually
there Many times in theater you
have to create scenery. which
means it can become very real tor
you, but still very ditterent tor the
person seated beside you "

A good example of this is ".\lakiii‘
Do." a one-woman character sketch
written by Rodgers The production
is pantomimed. while the woman is
making bread in her kitchen

"Everyone in the theater sees that
kitchen. ' Rodgers said. "but tor
ey ery individual. it is unique "

"Xlakiii' Do. ' along with a mono
logue by Rodgers titled "l)orothea.'
will be taped by Kl‘i'l‘ NM 3. and
will air early next year as an hour
long program
