Father, past play role
in shaping Weaver’s life

By JAY BLAN'HlN
News Edi tor

A picture of Cyndi Weaver's par-
ents sits on the bookcase in her
apartment. The photograph is of
Weaver‘s father. a colonel in the
army. and mother on the way to the
military ball.

But what the picture symbolizes is
far more important than what it de-
picts because it is representative of
a primary influence in Cyndi Weav-
er‘slife.

It is the influence that constantly
switching schools. being an “army
brat" and always having to start
over has on someone's life.

“I really did a lot of traveling in
Europe and got used to people who
think differently than I do about
things." Weaver said. “It‘s just an
acceptance of values and cultures
that‘s different than yours."

In a large way. it has led Weaver
to be the type of person she is »- as-
sertive. staightforward and con-
cerned

And it is these qualities she be-
lieves make her the best candidate
for Student Government Association
president.

However. Weaver. a political sci-
ence junior from Elizabethtown.
Ky. took a rather circuitous route to
get thepoint where she is now.

After spending most of her grade
school years in England and tin-
ishing high school at North Hardin
High School in Elizabethtown. Weav-
er started college at Western Ken-
tucky University.

Wastem wasn't particularly her
first choice in colleges, but it was a
chance to be close to her father. who
in a year was going to Korea.

In the interim. Weaver's father,
John. was serving as ROTC director
at Western. The time spent there
gave her the diance to eat a lot of
lunches and dinners with her father
and in the process grow even closer
to him.

Four SGA candidates
tackle issues in debate

By CA. DUANE BONIFER
Staff Writer

SGA vice presidential candidates
discussed how to improve the Stu-
dent Government Association‘s
image last night and how to reach
“Joe Student.”

About 75 students attended the de-
bates in 230 Student Center that
were cosponsored by Omicron Delta
Kappa National Honor Society and
the Kentucky Kernel.

The first debate pitted three-year
SGA Senator at Large Brad Dixon
against Karl Crase. a newcomer to
campus politics.

In his opening statement. Dixon, a
member of Kenny Arington‘s ticket.
said SGA must keep student costs at
a minimum by implementing a p05-
sible tuition freeze and increase the
overall quality of education at UK.

“It‘s time to bring the quality of
our general education up to the stan-
dards of our research program."
Dixon said.

Dixon also spoke of the impor—
tance of SGA representatives to
”find out what the students want“
during his closing statement.

During his opening statement,
Crase. a member of Cyndi Weaver's
ticket. stressed “change" and the
need for SGA to move in a "new di-
rection.“

“We‘ve got to go out and address
the concerns of ‘Joe Student.’ “ he
said.

Changes Crase said need to be
made in SGA‘s executive branch in-
clude the improvement of the aca-
demic affairs committee. the resur-
rection of the minority affairs
committee and creation of three new
committees to deal with both off-
campus students and those in resi—
dence halls.

However. during the cross-exami-
nation periods by the candidates and
the four-member media panel. nei-
ther of the candidates provided de—
tailedanswers.

In the second debate. the senior
Vice preSidential contenders. Keith
Clary and Susan Bridges. revealed
the sharp differentiation in the inter-
pretations they hold of the senior
vice presidents role.

Clary. a member of Arington‘s
ticket. expressed the desire to be-

come involved with other facets of
SGA and help enforce programs. in
addition to chairing the SGA Senate.

“1 want to do more than just chair
the senate,"he said.

However. Bridges. a member of
Weaver's ticket. said she viewed the
role of SGA senior vice president
solely as one of moderating senate
action and helping to foster good
feelings between fellow senators.

“Although the senior vice presi-
dent needs to be informed on the is-
sues.“ she said. “it's not the job of
the senior vice president to get in.
volved in the senate."

The candidates spoke more on the
issues. but their answers to precise
questions lacked specifics.

Both candidates agreed that the
Student Center needs to become
more appealing to the students but
saw different ways in winch im‘
provements need to be made

t‘lary said if limited commerciali»
zation was permitted and fast-food
and other small businesses were
brought in. more students from
south campus would be attracted to
the Student Center.

"It would create an environment
that will be suitable to students and
make them feel like they belong
here."he said.

But Bridges pointed out that if any
structural changes were made in the
Student Center. it would cost about
$2.8 million to bring the structure up
to fire codes She said that money
could be put to better use

The candidates also agreed that
SGA needs to reach "Joe Student "

Means for furthering women’s
cause topic of Steinem lecture

By WILL RENSHAW
Staff Writer

A soidout crowd listened to the
revelations of feminist Gloria Stei-
nem last night in the Concert Hall of
the Center for the Arts.

Steinem began her discussion by
defining the way in which feminists
are viewed and the expectations the
world has of this group.

“If we come together today and
there‘s no trouble. we haven't done
our jobs.“

Steinem moved from this point to
address the state of the nation as
having. for the first time in history.
the majority in support of women‘s
rights. She said further that because
of this majority favor. a “backlash“
of prejudice has been created that
stems from the White Home.

that with the men that he commands
and with his children.

“He’s always listened to us and
encouraged us that you can do what-
ever youwanttodo."

Now what she wants to do is be-

than any president this nation has
ever seen.“ Steinem said. “and no-
where is it written that just because
there is a majority. it will win.” she
said.

Steinem defined two major waves
that the feminist movement has to
move through. The first wave. which
continued up until the time of the
Equal Rights Amendment. gained
women a legal identity.

The second wave. which Steinem
said has only existed for the past 20
years. is a movement to gain women
“full legal and social equality."

"We are not putting on a feminist
view but taking off the mask and
seeing reality." she said.

From this point. Steinem turned
her emphasis to female writers by
defining three basic ways women

Work is key to success
for Arington in election

By BRAD COOPER
Assistant News Editor

When Kenny Arington was a se-
nior in high school. he made a list of
what he wanted to achieve in college
and sealed it in an envelope.

Just recently the list, which was
tucked safely under Arington‘s bed
more than more than four years
ago. reappeared when his mom
found the envelope and called Arirg
ton and reminded him of his goals.

A glance at the list reveals that
Arirgton could be a little more than
a week from fulfilling a dream he
has worked for since being elected
as a Student Government Associa-
tion freshman senator in 1983.

With an no record in elections
dating back to his days as a student
at Shelby County High School.
Arington will be looking for No 12
when the voters go to the polb on
April 8-9 to elect their next SGA
president.

If elected. Ariruton said his happi-
ness will be twofold. He will have
accomplished a goal he began work-

ing toward last Thanksgiving. and

he will have made his

“I enjoy the feeling of accomplish-
ment of getting a project finished
. . . or working on something that i
know will benefit somebody," said
the political science and Russian
area studia senior who believes
hard work is the key to success.

Before coming to UK, Arington
spent the better part of his 22 years
working on his family's l20acre
farm in Shelbyville, Ky.

While growing up, SGA‘s senior
vice president said he discovered
the fruits of labor while watching his
parents, neither of whom graduated
from high school, work on the farm.

“From that farm background i
learned you don‘t get anything
free," Arington said. “Anything you
get in life you have to earn it.

“I really admire my parents I
feel like they've accomplished a
lot,” he said. ”My father has in
stilled in me as I grew up that the

way you get anything is through
hard work.

‘ It means a lot to me to know that
my parents are proud of me and
ifldon’,tdothebestlcan Im not
only letting myself down, but I‘m
letting them down too. “

Last semester Arington tried
upholding his committments to SGA,
Radio Free Lexington, where he
serves as chairman of the board,
and his family.

Every day after handling his re-
sponsibilities on campus, Arington
would make the hour«long trip home
to help his 62-year-old father and
and 51-year-old mother to help with
work on the farm -— sometimes
spending the night without even see-
ing them before returning to UK.

Arington, the youngest of three
sons. was the only one who was able
to assist with the family farm when
his father and brother were hurt

On March 4, Arington had to put
his good will on hold as he was hos-
pitalized overnight for exhaustion.

Arington’s colleagues as well as
the administrators and staff mem-
bers he has worked with say they
like Arington’s perseverance.

“He works longer hours than the
average person because he’s able to
handle it because he cares so
much," said SGA president Donna
Greenwell.

Students Publications Adviser and
RFL board member Paula Ander-
son, who has seen Arington's efforts
in helping to raise $100,000 for the
campus radio station, said he usual-

ly accomplishes what he wants to
achieve.

“Kenny is pretty sure of himself."
Anderson said. “He is effective and
when he sets out to get something
done, he usually accomplishes it."

In some ways, Arington‘s ap-
proach with administrators is the
same the way he is approaching his
campaign — low-key.

“(Aringtoni is quiet. but effec-
tive," said Jack Blanton. vice chan-
cellor for student affairs. “He
doesn't come off with a great deal of
bravado and he‘s not flashy . . . The
the people I know like the way he
gets things done.“

Wildcats attack

lift them past Colonels

By SUSAN HAZZARD
Contributing writer

RICHMOND, Ky. —- Although the
winds were cold, the Kentucky bats
were not as the Wildcats connected
for 20 hits en route to 19-9 win at
Eastern Kentucky yesterday.

A home run over the center field
fence by Mitch Knox and consee
utive blasts by Mark Blythe and
Chris Estep in the top of the eighth
led Kentucky to its 17th win against
only fivelosses.

"This is a really good win for us,"
Estep said. “Eastern was on roll,
winning 15 of their last 16 games
This is a big confidence builder for
our team."

The Kentucky rally began in the
fifth when Blythe, Estep and Knox
reached safely with consecutive sin-
gles.

Designated hitter David Ray then
drove in Blythe from third on a
grounder to Eastern shortstop Mark
Siemer to close the Eastern margin
to two, 6-4. 0n the same play. Estep
scored from second on a throwing
error by EKU second baseman
Frank Kremblas to cut the lead to
one.

Then Kentucky‘s Bobby Olinick

grounded to third, where Tim Red-
mon fielded the ball and threw wild
Over first base to move Ray to third.
Olinick advanced to second on the
error.

Robbie Buchanan doubled to left
field to score both base runners.
Dan Rieman doubled to close out the
scoring for the Wildcats, who led 745
after the dust settled.

EKU scored two runs off two hits
in the bottom of the fifth to go back
on top 8-7.

Kentucy then sent 10 batters to the
plate in the sixth, racking up five
runs off five hits. After EKU scored
once in the bottom of the inning,
Kentucky lead 12-9.

“We started out slow," Buchanan
said. “But we came on strong in the
end. Today‘s win meant a lot to us.
It's a real boost of confidence before
we take on Florida this weekend.”

Kentucky added two runs in the
seventh and blasted EKU for five
more in the eighth for the final mar-

gin.
The Wildcats travel to Frankfort

today for a 3 pm. game with Ken-
tucky State.

over suspension by Ueberroth

By FRED GOODALI.

Associated Press
ST PETERSBLTRG, Fla. 7
Dwight Gooden, the talented but

troubled New York Mets pitcher.
agreed yesterday to undergo treat-
ment for a “drug use problem"
rather than be suspended by Com-
missioner Peter Ueberroth,

The 1985 National League (‘y
Young award winner probably
would have started on Tuesday
when the World Series champions

opened the season against Pitts-
burgh.
Mets General Manager Frank

(‘aslieri said Gooden voluntarily took

a drug test earlier this week and it
gave “some indication of past
usage. but the extent is uncertain "

Edwrn Durso. baseball‘s secre~
tary-treasurer and executive vice
president, said Cashen called l'eber-
roth on Monday and told him “there
was a clear indication of a drug
problem."

"The commissioner made it per
fectly clear to the Mets that. conSis-
tent With past policy, he was pre~
pared to take severe disciplinary
action against Dwight Gooden if the
player did not seek an appropriate
remedy." Durso said.

L'eberroth. in a statement from
Chandler, Ariz.. said: “Our policy is
simple. If a player is willing to help
himself, he gets one chance. If he is
unwilling to cooperate or a problem
occurs a second time. then we will
take the penalty route "

L'eberroth conditionally suspended
11 players, among them Keith Her-
nandez of the Mets, in March 1986
followmg testimony during drug tri»
als in Pittsburgh. All 11 were allow-
ed to keep playing if they donated
part of their salary to drug pro
grams, performed community serv
ice and agreed to undergo drug test

It is important that this issue receive a precedent-set-
ting decision, which only the Supreme Court can make.

The rules, as well as the future, of surrogate moth-
erhood need to be defined as explicitly as possible. Only

the Supreme Court can do this.

The sooner this case reaches the Supreme Court the bet-
ter off future surrogate mothers, natural fathers and fami—
lies of both, not to mention Melissa, will be.
