Fans celebrate new season

Euphoric crowd welcomes
return of Big Blue basketball

 

By Eric Mosolgo
Staff Writer

The atmosphere at Memorial (‘ol-
iseum Friday night was surreal and
the mood was celebratory.

The fans. some of whom had
been waiting for days to witness
this midnight moment. were hyped
into a delirium by the promise of a
new basketball season.

Wearing an outfit that appeared
to be a hybrid of Elvis and Lenny
Kravitz attire, the Wildcat mascot
strutted on the coliseum floor with a
guitar in hand.

Serving as the only source of illu-
mination in the coliseum was a sin-
gle spotlight, which first focused its
luminosity on the UK coaching
staff. When UK coach Rick Pitino
ran through the glow of the flood-
light. the crowd roared with pas-
sion.

Next. the fans heaped their col-
lective praise on each of the l2
members of the “Ni-()4 Wildcat
team.

In a scene that could have rivaled
Beatlemania. each player stepped
into the spotligltt at the concourse
level of the colisenm and then wove
through the era/ed masses until he
reached the court.

First to make the voyage through
the crowd were the freshman team
members. who probably still are
stunned by the hysteria. Jeff Shep—
pard. a 6-foot-4 guard from Peach-

 

tree City. Ga. exhibited his youth-
ful exuberance by pumping his fist
when he reached the floor.

The highly acclaimed sophomore
class of Tony Delk. Walter McCar-
ty. Jared Prickett and Rodrick
Rhodes followed the freshmen in
the eye of the spotlight.

Rhodes had the most difficult
time reaching the court. Descending
through a section populated mostly
by UK students. the forward was
the focal point of a mob scene. His
progress toward the court was halt-
ed completely by a huge bear hug
from last season‘s crowd favorite
and three-point specialist Todd
Svoboda.

The biggest ovation of the night
was reserved for senior Travis Ford.
In a moment that would be best de-
scribed as electric. the diminutive
point guard appeared to vanish
among the multitude while the
shrills of an adoring crowd filled
the air.

Once the team had been intro<
dticed. the lights were turned on
again. and Pitino assumed his role
as master of ceremonies. The ren-
aissance man of UK basketball first
offered his suggestions to improve
the atmosphere of home games in
Rupp Arena. A thumbnail sketch of
the l’itino recommendations:

'The crowd should continue its
pregame introduction ritual. After a
UK starter is introduced. Pitino

Walk for charity
draws hundreds
despite weather

 

By Rac hei Farmer
Contributing Writer

 

(‘old rain and free/ing tempera-
tures did not deter some 300 walk-
ers Saturday moming at (‘ommon-
wealth Stadium. where hot
chocolate. coffee and doughnuts
awaited participants of the Founh
Annual Walk for Hunger.

Sponsored by (iod’s i’aiitry. the
Skilometer walk began at the stadi-
urn. extended into ('hcvy (‘hasc
and finished on (‘ommonwealth
Drive. Participants also were on
hand for a lO-kilometer event. but
it was cancelled because of incli<
mate weather.

Paul Scanlon. a member of God’s
Pantry‘s board of directors. said he
was astounded with the “fact that
people came out in this weather to
walk."

A few weeks before the event.
participants solicited pledges tltat
will go to supply food to needy
families. Because all of the pledges
have yet to be tumed in. orgaiii/ers
don‘t know how much money Sat-
urday's walk raised.

this year's goal was SSiHXXl.

Mary Jo Votruba. executive di-
rector of the food agency. said
some people participate lit the walk
because they think it is a way to do
something helpful.

Finily Burtoti. a loyear-old stu-
dent at ’l‘ates (‘reck High School.
said she participated in the event
because it she had fun walking for
the charity in previous years, it also
gave her “something to do on Sat-
urday besides watching TV." she
said.

iligh school students from Paul
Lawrence Dunbar also took part in
the event. directing participants
along the route of the walk.

The participant who raises the
most money will receive two air
line tickets to anywhere in the con-
tinental United States.

God's Pantry is a non-profit or-
ganization that serves 48 counties
throughout central and southem
Kentucky. Votruba said. The agen-
cy sells food to other community
services. like the (‘ommunity
Kitchen. and provides a t‘tve- to
seven-day food supply to families
having trouble making ends meet.

Covering Bosnia difficult,
BBC correspondent says

 

By Erica Patterson
Assistant News Editor

 

'l‘ravcling about once a week to
the front lines of war-tom Bosnia
can be a dangerous wav to cant a
living —— especially when your es~
cons are drunken soldiers who
brandish loaded rifles

So Jane Howard became the first
British Broadcasting (‘orporation
Wald Service correspondent to be
issued a bullet-proof jacket

Her escorts. however. were inst a
small part of the problem. The snip-
ers were far more dangerous. And
although the jacket added some
sense of security. Howard said she
spent a lot of time dodging the ship-
ers‘ sudden outbursts ot hostile fire

“One minute it would be quiet.
the next minute you‘d be running."

Howard said.

lhe correspondent. who Visited
l'K last week along with Farncst
Warbunon. editor of the BB("s
iinglish-Ianguage World Service.
described the time she spent cover-
irtg the civil war in the former Yu—
goslavia as a very exhausting and
disturbing time.

“It was Yugoslavia when l ar~
rived. but it fell apart." said lio—
ward. who spent two years iii the
area. "To see all that —- the destnic-
tion -- it takes it out of you."

in the midst of the fighting and
fearing for her life. Howard was
held hostage in a Sarajevo hotel.
She eventually was released but Iai-
er discovered her captor. a soldier.
was a committed rapist who went
on the terrorize the community.

"The more I think about it. the

 

more I realize the whole conflict
was very dangerous.“ she said.

Howard 3 33’year-old native of
Doncaster. England. recalled visit-
ing a hospital in Yugoslavia. where
she saw a little girl with a large
wound on her side, The wound was
covered with a dressing made from
a brown paper fertilizer sack and
tied with Scotch tape.

“it was really sad." said Howard.
who had never seen a dead body be-
fore traveling to Yugoslavia

“But since then. l've seen may
tem’ble things like that." she said.

One of the biggest stories that
Howard Covered as Belgrade conc-
spondent ~— .1 position she left I
few weeks ago — involved the con-
ditions of Bosnia prison canps.

A UK biochemistry instructor has been awarded a Merit Award from the National Institutes of Health.

The award will provide more than $2.5 million for Sam Turco and his team of researchers. who are

Geological Survey publishes coal, water reports

Two reports dealing with remaining ooal resources and ground-water quality in Eastern Kentucky
have been published by the Kentucky Geological Survey at UK.

Twelve coal beds within the 55-square-mile area of the Handshoe quadrangle, which is located main-
ly in Knott County. are potentially mineable, according to one of the reports.

This study is part of a program to measure the magnitude of past mining and potential restrictions to
future mining. It found that total original coal resources were almost 645 million short tons.

The remaining resources are about 633 million tons, or 98 percent of the original, the report said.
However, 230 million tons — or 36 percent — is restricted coal, meaning it cannot be mined because of
local. state or federal regulations.

The report is part of an ongoing effort by federal and state geological surveys to estimate the amount
and character of the country‘s coal resources.

A second report by the survey describes the occurrence. movement and chemistry of ground water in

This investigation, one of the most intensive ever done in the Eastern Kentucky Coal Field, docu-
ments the relationship between ground-water chemistry and the flow system that controls movement of

High levels of naturally occurring fluorine and barium were detected in the ground water.

andidates for mayor
share views on issues

Editor's note: This is thefinal in-
stallment of a three-part series on
Urban County Council and mayo—
ral candidates.

 

By Robin Osgood
Contributing Writer

 

Since the most important govcm-
ment to many citizens is local gov-
ernment. the outcome of tomor-
row's mayoral race could have a
large impact on Lexingtonians.

There are two candidates for
mayor, incumbent Pam Miller and
first-time political candidate Ted
Mims. 'lhe mayoral race. as well as
all council races, is nonpartisan.

Issues of concern to studean in-
clude the University's involvement

in the community, improvement of

alternative transit systems. environ-
mental management and long-range
planning between UK and the city.
Both candidates agree Lexing-
tori‘s transit service needs improve-
ment. Miller is pleased with Lex-
Tran‘s new management company
~ especially its resourcefulness.

ton, Ohio. free.

Miller said she wants to increase
funding for mass transit and is ex-
arnining the city's general fund to
locate extra resources.

“As soon as the city can find cx—
tra money, it will go to [.ex'l‘ran,"
she said.

Mims considers transit in Lex-
ington a top priority and would go
so far as to suppon a referendum
on a transit tax.

“If a transit tax is what is needed
to have a good transit in Lexington.
I will support a tax referendum for
transit." he said.

Mims said the development and
use of mass transit could especially
bcncfit students, many of whom are
concerned about the availability of
parking near campus.

Miller said she has proposed to
the University a plan that would cn-
able students to use the city‘s tran-
sit center parking garagc. She said
this approach would have dual ben-

“One. it would give (students)
parking and, two. it would be an
excellent place to run a shuttle to
UK campus," she said. "'Ihat is an
obvious place that (the city) could
provide the students with parking."

In the area of environmental pol-
icy. UK's proposed toxic waste
storage sitc rcccritly bcciunc a hotly
debated topic. Neither candidate
was familiar with this issue. but
both said they would do everything
possible to ensure UK follows fed—
eral regulations.

Millcr also said Lexington's Di-
vision of Environmental zuid limer-
gcncy Management would be able
to handle any problems that might
misc.

()n the issue of long-range plan
ning. Mims and Miller say the Uni-
versity and city should have better
working relationships.

Mims favors a "Town-Gown"
Committee," a group that would
address problems facing the Uni-
versity and city and help the two
work together to find solutions.

Millcr noted that she has ap-
pointed two new committees. the
Comprehensive Planning Review
(‘ommittcc and the Downtown
Planning Committee.

UK Vice President for Adminis-
tration Donald (Tlapp sits on both
committees as a way of improving
communications between the city
and UK, she said.

“I am also personally in contact
with (UK) President (Charles)
Wethington on many issues, and I
have a very positive working rela—
tionship already established with
Dr. Wcthington," Miller said.

Miller said past problems that
have existed between the city and
UK are in the process of changing
under current city and UK adminis-
trations.

Vocalist Andrew Eldritch of the Sisters of Mercy explores the
world of technology and love on the band's latest CD.

while l-leritch pounds the listener

:\l the sztmc time. I-jldritch is
backed up with the most elemental
and human vocals.

Instead of retelling the tale of
love as a cause to fight for. Eldritch

has invented his own cause.

He is repairing the ties between
industrial advance and the inherent
human emotions that collide with
the Gothic images of futuristic.
techno-punks his music creates

“Vision Thing“ brings to mind
Billy Idol in his cyberpunk mode.

The song doesn‘t dare or chal-
lenge you to defy the pessimism
and emotionless techno beats that

thump long turd forever.

(‘onstandy love appears as
the refuge to The Sisters of Mer—
cy‘s mechanical madness.

Iildritch‘s authoritative voice
clashes with the rousing backing
vocals of Ol‘ra Ila/a and Terri
Nunn.

"More" and “Temple of Love
(1992)" rue urgent but with an
overpowering monotony.

The message of love as the ul-
timate redeemer is hammered
into the percussive backbeat.

“More“ is a track in which the
rhythms become hypnotic and
stifling; pounding on uncondi-
tionally into the next track. each
as relentless as the one before.

As your head starts to hob and
shake. the mind goes blank and
becomes as numb as the beats‘
images of dark monasteries and
dank convents appear.

'lhen finally. revelation!

You have seen the future. and
it is little red. blue. yellow and
green lights blinking in syn-
chronized patterns backed by a
stirring chorus of “And I need all
the love l can get/And I need all
the love I can’t get too.“

In the “Temple of Love
(1992)," dramatic strings burn
with a semi-detached but pre-
cious. unrelenting beat that push-
es the vocals — and doesn‘t
even change for a burst of spon-
taneous inflection.

lildritch‘s hurried vocals lead
into a repetitive techno-classical
combination of short guitar
bursts and quivering strings.

The gospel—influenced chants
of llaza and Nunn spare the
canned music from having to im-
part any uplifting emotion.

Remember the good ol' days of
rock'n‘roll. when strung-out rock-
ers didn‘t aspire to social change,
to feed the starving or to house the
homeless?

There still are a few bastions of
the protest movement in rock: Mid-
night Oil. 10,000 Maniacs and a
now-more~listener—friendly REM.
Where does a young band with a
conscience fit in with these jaded
