Tower says he will not drink if confirmed

Hy DON N A (‘ASSA'I‘A
Associated Press

WASHINGTON Defense Secretary-
designate John Tower said yesterday that
he is not an alcoholic and issued an ex«
traordinary pledge not to take a single
drink if he is confirmed by the Senate to
head the Pentagon.

As Tower defended his reputation in na-
tionally televised interviews, Senate
Armed Services Committee chairman Sam

Nunn. D~Ga.. accused the White House of
leaking information from the FBI report
on Tower and threatened to reopen the
hearings on the nomination and subpoena
anonymous witnesses quoted in the agency
review.

The committee voted 11-9 along party
lines Thursday to recommend that the full
Senate reject Tower's nomination, with
Nunn citing allegations of excessive drink-
ing by the nominee.

In his first interview since the vote,

Tower denied that he was an alcoholic. and
with his unusual promise sought to allay
fears among his former colleagues arid rc-
move the obstacles to his confirmation

The full Senate is expected to take up the
nomination on Wednesday.

“Noting the principal concern oi Senator
Nunn and other members oi the Senate rclr
ative. to my continuation as secretary of
Defense. namely the extent to which I may
engage in excessive use oi beverage alco
hol. let me state that l have neyer been an

alcoholic nor dependent on alcohol.”
Tower said in a statement he read on Aid
TVs “This Week With David Brinkley "

“l hearby swear and undertake that it
confirmed. during the course oi my tenure
as Secretary of Defense. l will not con
sume beverage alcohol oi any type or
form, including wine. beer or spirits oi any
kind.”hesaid.

More than tso exhibits and displays set
up by industry. faculty and students
tilled Anderson Hall Saturday as part of
the ('ollege ot' Engineering's Open
House

Wei-yang Lu. program coordinator
for the event, said iii the past several
years the event has attracted about 500
people who come to see the displays
and compete in the various contests.

“This year we hope we can have a lot
more." Lu said.

And there were more, According to
La. the number of entries for competr
tioii increased.

The most notable increase was in the
Student Projects (‘ompetitioir which
had no entries last year but attracted ll
entries this year

Besides the Student Projects (‘onipctir
tion. three other contest were open to
students a model bridge construction
contest; crash-survivability competition
iegg dropi; and mechanicaldcsign
competition imoiise—trap cart

The bridges entered in the model
bridge construction contest had to be
constructed of only balsa wood and glue
and meet certain size simcifications.

Each bridge was tested to find its
maximum loadcarrying capacity after
it was shown to have satisfied the mini-
mum requirements All bridges were
tested to the point of destruction.

Emma Kleinhenz. a physics teacher
at Scott (‘oiinty High School, required
all the students in her class to enter the
contest Students from her class took
first. second and third place.

John Holmes and Mike Johnson. botli
seniors at Scott (‘ounty High School.
won first place with a bridge that took
them only two hours to construct.

Melissa Hepler. also a senior in
Kleinhenz‘s class. was not so lucky with
her bridge.

She turned away as the bridge which
took her six hours to build was tested.

Heplcr's bridge did break. and she
did not placc in the contest.

with egg drOp, mouse-trap cars, bridge design

students front elementary schools. high
schools and [TK (‘oiitestants attempted
to design a package that would allow an
egg to survive a 24-foot drop,

Hon Jordan. a UK senior majoring in
metallurgical engineering, designed a
cone-shaped package with fins for his
egg. Although the design was supposed
to cause the cone to land on the tip. the
cone landed on its side and the egg was
broken.

"l think the reason it fell on its side
was because they made me cut the
fins," said Jordan. Jordan had to alter
his design so it would fit through the
mechanism used to drop the eggs.

Mark Bicschke. a senior at Lexington
('atholic High School. was more suc—
cessful with his eggs. Bieschke had
three entries. using marshmallow
creme and shaving cream to protect the
eggs

“I just wanted to get something
gooey." said Bicschke. "l was thinking
of using a gel. Then I just saw the
marshmallow creme after I was eating
marshmallow creme and graham
crackers."

The mouse-trap car contest required
students to liuild a car that would travel
2022 feet

Haydon Wharton. a representative
from Thomas Moore College. won first
place and $100 in the college division of
the contest Wharton designed the car
with the help of two friends. Dan
Schneidau and Jerry Landwehr

Wharton said he had competed for
three years He won the tirst year. but
didn‘t doso well last year

“Last year he iWhartoni. sat on the
car on the \\ a) down." Schneidau said

Perry Jones and Paul Collins. both
l'K seniors majoring in agricultural en<
ginecriiig. placed first in the Student
Project (‘ompetition for their devel-
opment of an automated chicken sexer.

Collins said they wanted to develop an
“initial concept“ for using automation
in chicken sexing. which is currently
done by hand.

Jones said he had been working on
the project for about six months. and it
was 85~percent accurate. Jones and
(‘ollins won $100 for first place.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — UK's
zone caused problems for No. 6
Syracuse University until Ste-
phen Thompson staked his
claim under the basket.

“That‘s
my area
when I get
the ball
around the
basketf‘
s a i d
Thompson.
a junior
f o r w a r d
who scored
13 of his 27 M'LLER
points during a decisive second-
half surge that carried Syracuse
to a 89-73 triumph over the Wild-
cats.

“They surprised us with their
zone and it took me awhile to
find the openings inside.“ said
Thompson. who was 13-of-16
from the field. scoring mostly
on fastbreak layups and inside
power moves.

“When I did (find the open-
ings), I wanted them out of
there. " said Thompson.

UK was aware of Thompson‘s

 

 

scoring abilities near the bas-
ket, but couldn‘t find a way to
stop him in the second half,
when he tallied 17 points.

“When they play a zone of-
fense, he has no designated
spot.” said UK junior guard
Derrick Miller. “We kind of lost
him a couple times and he ran
down the baseline on us. I knew
he was a good player, an explo-
sive player. He did what he does
best. He filled up the lane."

Thompson helped Syracuse
wipe out a three-point halftime
deficit, leading the way as the
Orangemen outscored UK 26—15
during a nine-minute span mid
way through the second period.
Syracuse then put the game
away with a 15-4 burst.

It was the 30th consecutive
non-conference victory at the
Carrier Dome for Syracuse.
which improved to 23-5. Syra-
cuse won against UK. 1217. for
thefirsttimeinsixtries.

The Wildcats. who built a 10-
point advantage in the first half,
were led by junior guard Der-
rick Miller's 21 points.

Orangemen shift into gear,
wipe out undermanned UK

UK fashioned a 42-39 halftime
lead behind the scoring of Miller
and sophomore guard Sean Sut-
ton, who combined for 20 first-
half points.

The Orangemen were ahead
10-6 when UK scored 10 straight
points, keyed by Sutton’s two
lay-ins. Syracuse regained the
lead 19—17 on David Johnson’s
breakaway layup with 12 min-
utes to play. but UK‘s Miller
sank a three pointer 30 seconds
later to ignite a 16-4 run that
gave the Wildcats‘ their biggest
lead, 33-23, with 7:49 to play.

Derrick Coleman and Billy
Owens each had 15 points for
Syracuse. while senior guard
Sher'nan Douglas registered 14
assists. Douglas moved into sec—
ond place on the NCAA's all-
time assist list. just eight behind
former Northeastern guard
Andre LaFleur, who is first with
894.

Freshman Chris Mills had 15
points for UK. while Sutton fin-
ished with 13 points after a nine-
point first half.

 

 

Bat Cats explode in season opener,
score 15 runs in ripping Penn State

By DAN PETERS
Staff Writer

LAKELAND, Fla. — The UK
baseball team hasn‘t played as
many games as their counterparts
in college baseball‘s Top 25.

But the Bat Cats didn't show
much rust yesterday, sweeping
Penn State University in a double-
header to open its season here at
Charlie Geheringer Field at the Ti-
gertown Sports Complex.

UK rallied in both games to win
8-5 and 7-2. vaulting its record to
24). Penn State stumbled to an 0-2
record.

In game one, UK rallied from a
4-0 deficit with a five-run fourth in-
ning to take a 6-4 lead.

The Nittany Lions roughed up
UK starter Matthew Coleman for
four runs in the third inning. three
of the runs coming on a three-run
home run by right fielder Brad
Bowden.

Coleman escaped further dam-
age in the next inning after a walk.
a single and a wild pitch put run-
nets on second and third with none
out. Coleman got two ground balls
with the infield drawn in to stop
Penn State from adding to its 4-1
lead.

UK came back with five runs in
the fourth inning to take a two-run
lead freshman Mike Harris
started off the inning with a dou-
ble. then Keith Conrad drove home
Harris with a double to leftcenter
to cut the lead to 4-2.

After Jim Dill lined out to right
field, Anthony Morrow scored
Conrad by gunning a single to right
field. Billy White followed with a
sharp single to center to move
Morrow to third, and Roger Gum
scored Morrow with an infield-chop
single.

Tom Deller pitched the final two
innings in relief of Coleman for the
save. Coleman (Hi) was roughed

up but still managed to pick up
UK's first victory of the season.

Deller, a senior right-hander.
struck out three in two innings of
mop-up work.

In the second game. L'K got five
shutout innings from starter Rod
Dolton and four hits for Gum en
route to a 7-2 win.

Bolton, a junior college transfer.
yielded three hits and struck out
six in five innings of work before
turning it over to Bruce Wise, who
fanned four in the last two frames.

UK jumped off Penn State early
with two runs in each of the first
two innings.

Gum. a senior second baseman.
paced the UK attack with a 4-for-5
performance at the plate. Gum had
six singles in the doubleheader.
Morrow added four hits. two in
each game to help the UK attack.

UK and Penn State play today at
1pm.

By BRIAN JENT
Assistant Sports Editor

After Saturday's 89—70 lost to top-
ranked Auburn University, the
Lady Kat basketball team noticed
the impact of the the 4,800 specta-
tors that came to Memorial (Jol—
iseum.

"IThe crowd) helped us keep it
under a 20-point ball game.” I'K
coach Sharon Fanning said. “They
made a difference in our comeback
i in the second halfi."

Auburn. who raised its flawless
record to 2.3-0 overall and 8-0 in the
Southeastern (,‘onference, only ay-
erages 1.611 fans at their home
games.

"Auburn‘s kids have got to be
saying. "We don't have that many
people at our ball games and we‘re
the \o. 1 team in the nation.‘ "'
Fanning said

The tan support took the Tigers
by surprise. but it also amazed
some «it the [K players. [K has
been averaging only But} fans at
home games during the season

That was surprising (to see all
these people lierei.” ['K guard
.‘ilalinka Sallii said "They helped

The reasons the Kats drew
many people was because they
were playing the top team in the
nation. Fanning said.

’ People aren‘t going to come out
