Rep. Seorsone proposes bill to repeal student health

By NICK COMER
Senior Staff Writer

The battle over inturdatory health
insurance for Kentucky college stu-
dents is expected to rage anew to-
day as a state legislative committee
reviews a bill that would repeal the
instrrance requirement.

The law requiring the health insu-
rance currently is paralyzed by a
court restraining order until a class—
action suit, brought by two Kerr-
tucky college students. against the
state is settled

Rep. iimesto

Scorsone (l)—

|.exrngton) is sponsorirtg the bill
that would turn back the health in-
surartce law. Tire bill will be re-
viewed by the House education
cornrnrttee today.

The law requrres all full-time stu-
dents turd part-time studertts taking
75 percent of a full workload at
public and private colleges in the
state to carry health insurance.

The rrtiriirriurn requirements stip-
ulate that the insurzutce policy must
pay for at least 14 days in the hospi-
tal and 50 percent of related doc-
tor‘s fees.

Senator proposes bill
to check universities

By GREGORY A. HALL
Associate Editor

FRANKFURT. Ky. —— Higher
education receives about 15 percent
of the appropriation money from
the state‘s General Fund. A state
senator is proposing a method to
make the eight state universities ac-
countable for those dollars.

Sen. Ed Ford (D-Cynthiana) has
proposed a bill that would require
the universities to report various
perfomrance evaluations to the
(iovemor's Office and the Legisla-
tive Research Commission.

Many of the reports called for in
the bill are already provided by the
universities to the state (‘ouncil on
Higher education.

“The basic reason for this bill is
so that we can find out what kind of
retum we are getting for our dollars
in higher education." Ford said.

“Personally. i feel that they are
(getting our money‘s worth)." he
said. “But i think this will fortify
our institution‘s credibility with the
public when the public realizes just
how good of a job they may be do-
ing."

Ford said each institution's goals
would be based on their individual
missions.

“This is not meant to compare
one institution against another.“
Ford said. “It is to compare an insti~
lution against itself as far as fulfill-
ing its mission."

Ford. who is chairman of the Serr-
atc liducation Committee. said lie
anticipates bringing the bill before
his committee a week from 'l‘hurs—
day.

(iov. Brereton Jones called for
accountability among the universi-
ties in his state of the Common-
w‘alth address last month. Jones
also proposed offering financial re-
wards to schools that accomplish
their goals.

Ford said there are no rewards or
penalties iii his proposal.

“1 don’t care to ptrt iii any penal-
ties. zutd we have no money to re-
ward zuiyone," he said.

"The penalty would be a lack of
legislative support if they're not
getting the job done," Ford said.

Among the requirements are fol-
low-up surveys of alumni. faculty
and staff. enrollment and retention
rates and research and public ser-
vice activities.

Ford said he had mentioned his
proposal to Jones arid that the gov-
enror was in favor of the cotteept.

Ford also met with UK President
(‘harles Wethington on Monday
about the bill and other matters.

Wethingtoii said the bill “would
cause us to do more reponing than
we have been doing.“

Wcthington‘s coricenr was that
universities might be forced to hire
extra staff to provide the statistics.

Ford said that shouldn‘t be neces-
sary.

cess to health insurance. Scorsone
said requiring it places art “unneces-
sary' burden" on students.

"I think people will get insurance
if they can afford it." he said.

“The point is, it's not that stu-
dents don't warit insurance, they
want affordable insurance. and also
they wartt a package to meet their
needs."

students who want to attend col-
lege.

visited the (‘apitot to receive the en-
dorsement of (iov. Brereton Jones.
Clinton also attended a private
fund-raiser in Frankfort and a press
briefing at Flynn‘s, a restaurant arid
bar frequented by legislators.

Clinton's national education poli-
cy involves a loan program for zutyv
one who wants one to aid in paying
college tuition. The loans would be
paid back through payments in cort-
junction with federal tzetes or
through two years' public service.

“We could solve the social prob-
term of this country arid educate a
whole new generation." he said.

One of the problems of tltc cur-
rent system is the high default rate
on loans by fonner students.

Clinton said his proposal would
“do away with the default prob-
lem."

Terry McBrayer, a member of the
state Council on Higher Education.
said the proposal would go “a long
way toward solving the default lis-
sue)"

Voices of the past

Blue Aeroplanes’ ‘Beatsongs’ finds inspiration from ’50s poetry

Beatsongs
The Blue Aeroplane:
Ensign Records

By DAVE LAVENDER
Staff Critic

On Bearsongs. the Blue Aero-
planes' lead singer and principal
songwriter, Gerard Langley, talks
about his generation by implement-
ing voices of past generations.

Compositionally, Bearsongs, es-

Van

pecially the 10 songs penned by
Langley. are distant echoes of the
Beatnik movement of the late '50s.
which was led by poet Allen Gins-
berg.

On Beatsongs. Langley follows
Ginsberg's styles of improvisation-
al, “thought-breath” poetry, while
the British band leader drones them
in a voice that draws from a definite
Bob Dylan influence.

Included in the 12-song set are a
Paul Simon cover, “Boy in the Bub-

ble," and “Fun" a song written by
rhythm guitarist Ron Allen.

Composed of Langley; Allen;
bassist Andy McCreeth; drummer
Paul Mulreaney; guitarist. pianist
and organist Alex Lee; and guitarist
Angelo Bruschini, the Blue Aero-
planes really take off on the second
song of the album.

Mulreaney sets the recording
tape rolling on “YR Own World,”
with a rhythmic rolling of his snare
drum, following a count later is the
infectious rhythm parade that
drives the song. Guest percussionist
Alex Acuha assists Mulreaney with
an arsenal of percussion ranging
from tambourines to maracas.

 

Will be giving a high acceleration

Message to the Grass Roots and

Langley's lyrical poetry rumbles
from beneath the rhythm track in a
pattern of phrasings that are remi-
niscent of cenain early '803 J. Geils
Band tunes. such as “Centerfold."
Langley milks the melody in his in-
novative lead vocals, which perhaps
are best described in this song as an
alternative music rap —- a strange
yet appealing brew.

Langley sculpts his own blissful
Utopia in “YR Own World."

“I’m living in my own world/
living where I want to be/living in
my own world/together. yes, and
separately."

This chorus of wishful thinking
dreamily floats along, as the band’s
harmony vocals echo Langley’s
lead vocals.

All listeners are advised to fasten
their seat belts for this next wistful
trip, as the Blue Aeroplanes fly in,
out and through thick cover during
the 3:10 of “Angelwords.”

Like Langley’s hazy, ambiguous
lyrics and droning Dylan-like vo-
cals, you might just find your mind
wavering, while drifting in and out
of consciousness.

Langley’s lyrics, which grapple
with morality and relationships, in-
vite deep contemplation:

“Think like I do/lover or boss/

 

ROBERTO'S BUTO REPfllR

(l6 Years Experience)

drink like I do from the fountain of
loss/yr an angel/I'm a devil/l know
(but then) I'm an angel/yr a devil]!
know/It's the whole truth/the half
truth/and nothing of the truth/I’m a
devil."

While Langley’s lead vocals are
quite unique and digestible. the
band soars when Allen steps up to
the mike for 3:22 of “Fun.”

Mulreaney kicks off the hard-
driving tune with another assault on
the trap set. During “Fun." Allen's
strong melodic vocals search for his
identity and independence amidst a
sea of heavy-tremolo electric guitar
chords.

While the smothering relationship
Allen describes does not sound like
such a joyous occasion, the tight-
ness of the harmony vocals and in—
strumentation is cause for celebra-
tion. Mix in the soft brilliance of
David Mansfield‘s accustic violin
betwixt chorus and verse and “Fun"
becomes. perhaps, the best tune on
the album.

Langley’s pen is at its satirical
best when dipped in rhyme and rea-
son. Langley's quiet yet pointed
lashings catch the greatest amount
of light on “Cardboard Box.” A
stream of consciousness that flows
beneath an organ, bass guitar leads
and sporadically-picked reverb elec-
tric guitar:

“Lift my spirit/wear its coat/see
its shift/waste your gifts]... fast on
Sunday/keep the past/keep your cas-
tle/swim its moat use your vote/
here‘s a key to this cardboard box/

here's a key/to the heart of me."

The band creates a natural disas-
ter on a properly titled “My Hurri-
cane."

The Blue Aeroplanes miss the
runway on this long 6:44 miscue.
Nature sounds — water and the
“caw” of a crow — occupy a full
minute of the intro.

As any woodsman will tell you a
flock of crows are (l) as annoying
as a runny nose in the middle of a
lecture; (2) only good to shoot at;
(3) horrible backup singers.

When “My Hurricane" kicks in
(well over a minute into the song)
Langley‘s sharpbiting humor is
rendered inaudible by an army of
overpowering guitars that occupy
center stage, thus grounding the
Blue Aeroplanes.

While in some genres of music,
having the guitars cover up the ve-
cals is perfectly acceptable and
even preferred, it spells true disaster
for the Blue Aeroplanes. Their lyr-
ics are more than just “extra bag-
gage on a late night freight" (as
Aerosmith would say).

Overall, the Blue Aeroplanes pro-
pel Beatsongs on Langley’s eccen-
tric compositions. Certain tracks are
excessively long for radio play.
(Four hover around or above six
minutes).

The Blue Aeroplanes are at their
best when flanked by acoustical
squadrons, particularly acoustic gui-
tars. accordions and violins.

SAB chief earns
national award

By HEIDI FUGEMAN
Contributing Writer

UK senior K.C. Watts recently
received honorable mention as one
of USA T oday's 1992 Academic
All-Stars.

()f the 1,253 students nominated,
74 were singled out for the award.

“I’m excited because it’s a tre-
mendous honor from a national
publication to be named as a top
student in the country," said Watts.
president of UK’s Student Activi-
ties Board.

She was nominated for the award
by UK psychology professor Johna-
thon Golding.

The title is given to students with
outstanding GPAs who have ac—
complished large projects to benefit
their schools or communities.
Watts‘ project has not been one ac-
complishment, but many during her
four years at UK.

As a freshman, Watts joined SAB
through the homecoming publicity

committee. She stayed involved
during her sophomore year on the
Little Kentucky Derby committee.
and as SAB member at large during
her junior year and. finally, as SAB
president this year.

Watts also was crowned UK‘s
homecoming queen in 1989 and
currently serves as vice president of
Delta Delta Delta social sorority.

Watts, whose home is in Dayton,
Ohio, said she originally had want-
ed to attend Miami University, and
her mother had to twist her arm to
get her to look at UK.

“I fell in love," Watts said. and
she has proved it through her efforts
on SAB and her volunteer work in
the Lexington community.

“1 don’t view school or SAB as
work. lenjoy it. It‘s fun,“ she said.

Watts will graduate this May
with a degree in communications.
and she said she hopes to stay in the
Lexington area. She currently is in-
terviewing and says she is interest-
ed in marketing.

Prosecution rests after jury hears tape of accuser ’s 911 call

By THOMAS P. WYMAN
Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Jurors in
Mike Tyson's rape trial heard a
mother describe her daughter's
nightmares about the boxer and lis-
tened to the teen~ager's own words
to a 911 dispatcher before the pros-

ecution rested its case this after-
noon.

“i came out of the bathroom. and
this person was in his underwear
and he just basically kind of did
what he wanted to do and kept say-
ing, ‘Don‘t fight me. Don't fight
me.‘ And I was saying, ‘No! No!
Get off of me, get off of me

please,” Tyson's accuser said in
the9ll call.

"And the person is a lot stronger
than I was, and he just did what he
wanted. and l was saying. ‘Stop.
please stop' And he just didn't
stop, 'she said.

Some other portions of the 911
tape. in which the operator urged

the woman to press charges, were
deleted at the request of Tyson's at-
torneys.

There had been debate about the
911 tape played to jurors. Garrison
said the tape indicated Tyson's ac-
cuser filed charges after the dis-
patcher urged her to go to police.

Earlier, Marion Superior Court

Judge Patricia J. Gifford ruled that
jurors wouldn't be allowed to hear
testimony from three surprise de-
fense witnesses who claimed they
could show the accuser is lying.

Gifford said it would be unfair to
the prosecution to allow the defense
to bring in new witnesses.

Tyson. 25, is accused of raping

the 18-year-old Miss Black Ameri-
ca contestant after taking her to his
hotel room July 19. The former
heavyweight champion claims she
consented to sex. He could receive
up to 63 years in prison if convict-
ed.

Prosecutors rested their case after
calling 20 witnesses.

Unsatisfied, Fanning runs Lady Kats ragged

By ERNEST L. WRENTMORE
Stait Writer

Before the Lady Kats' practice.
players were trying to decide
whether they wanted to take a step
and experience pain — or stay in
the same place.

Soreness was the result of a
grueling practice, run like a Nazi
concentration camp by Coach Shar-
on Fanning. The Kats didn't prac-
tice as well as Fanning would have
liked so they ran suicides — a run-
ning drill.

“She tried to kill us," Kayla
Campbell said. “She saw Tennessee
play and got fired up."
