195 rushing yards, defense help
UK grab first conference victory

By ChrisJohnson
mtmmcxvm

It was Homecoming weekend, with the
Southeastern Conference's Western Division
cellar-dweller in town, after more than a
month of playing on the road, with all of the
healthy offensive starters ready to play

The time was ripe for a victory

“The team came together, put our foot
down, said we would stop making excuses and
win a football game," said senior wide receiver
Tommy Cook, one of those returning starters.

And UK did just that.

Tailbacks Rafael Little and Arliss Beach
combined for 195 rushing yards and the de-
fense allowed just one touchdown for the sec-
ond straight week as the Cats (2-5, 1-3 South-
eastern Conference) snapped a four-game los-
ing streak with a 13-7 homecoming win over
Mississippi State (2-6, 05 SEC) Saturday

“Awinisawin,andawinisawinisa
win," an exuberant UK head coach Rich
Brooks said.

Little rushed for 114 yards on 24 carries,
passing the lOGyard mark for the third time
this season. He’s now hit the century mark
more times than anyone since Artose Pinner
did eight times during the 2002 season.

Beach added 81 yards on 14 tough carries.
Several times, Beach carried one or more de-
fenders, or a pile of teammates and defenders,
on his back to gain every bit of yardage he
could get.

Still, the defense defined the win for UK.

“We had several chances to put the game
away and we failed to do that.“ Brooks said.
“The defense just kept coming up big.”

Bulldog running back Jerious Norwood —
the man whom UK defensive coordinator Mike
Archer called “the real deal” earlier in the
week _ gained 121 yards on 20 carries but
failed to reach the end zone. State’s Brandon
Thornton scored the Dawgs’ only touchdown,
on a 19yand end-around in the third quarter.

But for the most part, UK’s defense played
its second straight solid game, allowing 375 to
tal yards of offense and just seven points. Last
week against Ole Miss, the unit gave up 366
yards and 13 points.

“It’s the closest to 60 minutes I think we’ve
played all year," Brooks said.

UK‘s defense shone on third down opportu-
nities, too. The Cats were 117th (last place) in
NCAA Division I in third-down defense after
their Oct. 8 loss at South Carolina. In the last
two games, they’ve held opponents to 11-for-35
on third down, including 3-for-15 Saturday

And a week after having se

receivers in the game at the

Black alum
calls for more
diversity on
UK’s campus

By Rita DaVega
mmmn

A UK alum called for diversity at UK at the 15th
annual Lyman T. Johnson African-American
Alumni Awards Banquet held Friday night at the
Hyatt Re ency Hotel.

The t eme was "Upholding the Torch of Excel-
lence," and the featured speaker this year was
Boyce Watkins.

"Diversity should be a priority and if it isn’t, it
hurts everyone,“ Watkins said.

Watkins, an assistant professor in S racuse
University’s finance department, address the re
cent news of a 40 rcent drop in black freshman
enrollment at UK t is year.

“If George Bush can go to Harvard, then at
least a black can go to UK," said Watkins, the first
black professor in his department at Syracuse.

Watkins has had four books published, includ-
ing his most recent work, “What If George Bush
Were a Black Man?" It's a satirical inquiry into
some vast American hypotheses, Watkins said.

His books have earned him some notoriety,
along with some recent television a arances on
Fox’s “Hannit and Colmes," EgE'QN’s “Quite
Frankly" and “ he Jim Bohannon Show."

Watkins, 34, received his undergraduate and
graduate de 5 from UK and a doctorate in finan-
cial economics from The Ohio State University

Watkins also said that for diversity to work, it
needs a certain environment.

“(The) globalized economy is handicapping
students if they are not taught in a heterogeneous
environment," Watkins said.

Lyman M. Johnson, son of the program’s
namesake, Lyman T. Johnson, explained in his
greeting before the crowd that he was “still uncom-

ortable being a celebrit when I ste into the bor-
ders of Kentucky" But e added, “1 ad a remark-
able father. There is no other way to put it.”

Campus celebrates
civil rights heroine
with ceremony

By Jenisha Watts
THE litmucxv mm

The “mother of the Civil Rights Movement,"
an ordinary woman whose extraordinary action
defied society and led to a major victory in the
civil rights movement.

And all because she wouldn't give up her seat
to a white man.

Rosa Parks died at age 92 on Oct. 24 and was
remembered with a memorial service on Friday
at the Martin Luther King Jr. Cultural Center in
the Student Center.

The UK Office for Multicultural and Academ-
ic Affairs, along with a host of other organiza-
tions at UK. sponsored the memorial service.
Those who attended were there to reflect on the
mark that Parks made in history.

UK‘s first black undergraduate. Doris Wilkin-
son. was the guest speaker for the memorial.

“For me, Rosa Parks was a powerful role
model," Wilkinson said.

Wilkinson said Parks did more than just
refuse to give up her seat.

“Her defiant action helped to give birth to
Martin Luther King Jr. as a national leader. and
to the Civil Rights Movement.“ she said.

William H. Turner. vice president and associ-
ate provost, described the event as one of the
most powerful presentations he has ever wit-
nessed.

“(It was) a history lesson." he said.

UK President Lee Todd was in attendance
and reminisced about growing up in the civil
rights period.

“I remember the ‘White Only‘ signs." said
Todd.

Todd said he came to the memorial for per-
sonal reasons.

A $1.2 million grant from the Na-
tional Institute of Health has UK re
searchers working hard in the hopes
of luring new projects to Kentucky
in the future.

The University of Kentucky-
based Center for Pharmaceutical
Science and Technology has re-
ceived the funding to develop treat-
ments for victims in the event of a
radiation emergency CPST, run by
the UK College of Pharmacy. is part-
nering up with the Richmond, Ky
company. ChemPharma Internation-
al. for the project.

UK was the only university-
based group to get the grant.

“It was a strong competition;
there are a lot of smart people out
there,” said Michael Jay. professor of
pharmaceutical sciences, referring

”3

to the other schools and non-univer-
sity groups that also submitted pro
posals. “Apparently, we did well."
The goal of the team is to devel-
op a treatment for victims of a ter-
rorist attack involving Radiological
Dispersion Devices. better known as
dirty bombs. The end result will ide-
ally be an effective oral treatment
that would be included into the
Strategic National Stockpile. the spe
cial collection of drugs and supplies
the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention keeps to treat people in
the event of an emergency. Jay said.
Even though dirty bombs have
never been used in an act of terror-
ism, the threat of one being used to
day in a terrorist strike is a possibii
ity, said Dewey Crawford. manager
of Kentucky‘s Radiation Health
Branch. which is part of the Cabinet
for Health Services. What's uncer-
tain is how likely it is that one could

be used against the United States
and one of its major cities.

“It's a hard question to answer."
Crawford said. “It‘s not just a yes or
no or here or there. It depends on the
motives of the terrorist at the time.
what they hope to achieve."

The chances that terrorists
would use dirty bombs are greater
due to the accessibility of the mate-
rials used in making them. Once the
bomb detonates, radioactive materi-
als are ejected into the air. and de~
pending on the direction of the
wind. they could cause a huge dis-
ruption and pose a serious health
risk. according to information pro-
vided by the Armed Forces Radiobi
ology Research Institute.

In the past. the common miscon‘
ception is that there is a single pill
that could protect and prevent peo-
pie from the affects of the radiation.

With a successful result and a
new. effective drug in the (TDC's

grants in the future to continue new
research here on campus.

"Success breeds success; if the
government sees the job and is
pleased. it opens doors for more
funding in the future.“ Jay said.

“Wl'd like to build this pharma-

Jay said. Along with the achieve-
ment. he said this would benefit the
medical community and financially
boost UK.

“We hope to draw small pharma-

tucky. which ultimately is good for
the state's economy." Jay said.

President may announce new Supreme Court nominee today

By Peter Baker

WASHINGTON ~~ President
