Basement lab

site of incident

By Stephen Trimble
Senior Staff Writer

BXI]

An ex losion that ignited two
drops ofpchemicals in 3 Chem-
istry/Physics Building basement
laboratory caused hundreds of stu-
dents and faculty to evacuate the
building for nearly an hour yester—
day.

Some laboratory equipment in
room 47 was damaged but no one
was injured, UK spokesman Ralph
Derickson said.

Investigators had not deter-
mined a cause for the explosion,
Derickson said.

Scientists suspect that an unex—
pected electrical charge caused the
glass beaker that contained the
chemicals to explode, he said.

Details of the cause of the
explosion should be announced
today, said John Lowry, director
of UK’s Hazardous Materials
Management division.

The explosion occurred after
UK assistant professor Fola
Ladipo conducted a routine exper-
iment combining only a drop of
silyl hydride and another drop of
trityl chloride, Derickson said.
The combined chemical, silyl chlo-
ride, is non—poisonous, he said.

At some point, Ladipo left the
room and locked the door, leaving the chemicals
inside a ventilation hood. Investigators were not clear
yesterday whether Ladipo had finished his experi-
ment before he left the room.

The ventilation hood's protective shield was left
open improperly throughout the experiment and
during the explosion, Derickson said.

“Anytime the experiment is in progress the shield
has to be down,” Low said.

Derickson added although the shield was left
open, it could not have contributed to the explosion.
However, had someone been in the laboratory dur-
ing the explosion, they could have been injured from
ﬂying glass and materials, Dericlcson said.

Another assistant professor, Robert Toreki, heard
the explosion about 10:50 a.m., Derickson said.
Toreki unlocked the laboratory's door and discow
ered smoke and ﬂames.

Toreki then instructed students to pull a fire
alarm and call 911. Next the assistant professor
grabbed a fire extinguisher and tried to stop the fire,
Derickson said.

Nine emergency units, including a hazardous
materials unit, arrived shortly after as hundreds of
students and faculty waited outside the building.

Emergency crews wearing gas masks and white
laboratory coats entered the building about 11 a.m.
The fire was extinguished quickly, Derickson said.

The building was ventilated for about 40 minutes
before students were allowed inside again at roughly
1 1:45 a.m.

The experiment that combined the chemicals is
commonplace in the Chemistry/Physics Building.
Derickson said, btit the fiery reaction has never hap-
pened at UK.

Last year a radioactive contamination closed the
building’s basement over a weekend. The contamina—
tion was discovered about 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 8.
The building opened for classes the following Mon—
day. Derickson yesterday couldn’t recall other seri—
ous emergencies in that building during his 16—year
career at UK.

Slit: plans
events for

By Charles Cooper
Sfdﬂ' W'riter

Last Saturday, the Student
Development Council held its
first event —— the Senior Chal-
lenge, which was one of the five
events sponsored by Kennedy
Book Store meant to bring
seniors together and raise money.

The SDC is a fundraising
organization that promotes par-
ticipation while raising money for

YlBlEN "MM Kernel ruff

COME 0" [WWW Senior Brian (.‘anupp Iron a new 18181313107) yer, theﬁrtr

campus improvements and schol-
arships.

“The program seems like the
type of thing where the university
reaches back to the students and
rewards them for staying with
school and acknowledging the
effort it took to get this far," said
Canupp, a political science major
who won a 19” RCA television in
Saturday’s drawing.

There will be four more draw-
ings throughout this year. To
enter in any future giveaways,
seniors must get a Big Blue Pass,
which automatically enters

seniors in all the drawings and
allows them to get up to 20% off
books at Kennedy.

“There will be something for
everyone at the SDC giveaways
— or at least for the first 250
seniors," said Mary Buckels,
adviser for the SDC. The next
giveaway, which will be held on
Nov. 28, will be for $250 Worth
of books from the UK Bookstore
to be used in the Spring semester.

Since the Big Blue Pass is
sponsored by Kennedy, one
might wonder why Kennedy's
isn’t donating the books.

“Both bookstores are a vital
part of the university and we just
wanted to give them the opportu~
nity to be a part of this new and
exciting program for seniors,"
Buckels said.

“VVe‘re sponsoring the pass
but I guess they’re just trying to
get everyone involved," said
Carol Behr, general manager of
Kennedy.

If you‘re interested in acquir—
ing a Big Blue Pass, you may do
so by calling 257-6288, or you
can pick up a pass at the event.

Sanders-Brown Center receives $1.7 million grant

By Stephen Trlmble
Senior Staﬂ' Writer

The US. Department of Health and Human
Services approved a roughly $1.7 million grant for
UK’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging, U.S. Sena-
tor Mitch McConnell’s ofﬁce announced yesterday.

“The Sanders-Brown Center is achieving dra—
matic pro ess in the ﬁght against Alzheimer’s dis—
ease, and am leased to have played a part in fund-
ing that eﬁort, McConnell said in a news release.

The Center will use the grant to help pa ' for the
construction of a $6.9 million Extramural Research
Facility, which will add about 18,000 square feet of
s ace to the overcrowded building, said Dr. David

ekstein, the center’s assistant director.

The new addition will provide more space for
research on Alzheimer’s disease and strokes. It also
will rovide a place for students and faculty to
deve op more cost-effective health care methods for

N .-

elderly people, McConnell's release said.

Paul Holsinger, chancellor of UK’s Chandler
Medical Center, requested the grant, Wekstein
said.

Holsinger could not be reached for comment
because he is in England this week attending a con—
ference, said Mary Margaret Colliver, the medical
center's spokeswoman.

Colliver said she did not know how much money
had been raised for the facility.

Since May 1, the Center has received more than
$5 million in grants to continue its research into
Alzheimer’s disease and its work with elderly health
care since, Wekstein said.

The Center was established in 1980, and it‘s one
of only 15 federally-funded national Alzheimer’s
Disease Research Centers.

The facility includes the Commonwealth Center
of Excellence on Agin and the National Institute of
Health Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center.

New senators
reprimanded

By Alison Kight

Senior Staff H’ritrr

The Student Government Association Election
Board of Claims decided to officially reprimand and
keep the $2.5 deposits of freshman senatorial winners
Ashley Fortney and Holly Harris after hearing coin-
plaints ﬁled by three other candidates last night.

Robert Younger, Vanessa Varble and Mike \Valk-
er, all members of the "Final Four" senatorial plat—
form, filed similar claims against Fortney and Harris
after elections were over.

The claims stated Fortney and Harris violated
SGA constitutional bylaws by hanging posters on
glass surfaces, trees and sidewalks around campus,
and by failing to turn in proper receipts, which is
required for submittal at the end of elections.

Election Board of Claims Supervisor Kristy
Rogers said the written reprimand, which would go
in Fortney and Harris" SGA tiles, was a result of the
claims concerning Fortney/Harris posters hung on
trees and glass, which Harris admitted to hanging.

“I'm very sorry for doing that,“ Harris said. “I was
unaware of the rules, and I did not think tWo posters
hung in illegal locations would make a difference. If
I had known, I never would have done it."

Fortncy and Harris said they lost their deposits
after failing to turn in proper receipts with their
expenditure reports.

Another of the claims said Fortney, Harris and
their supporters ripped down other posters.

Rogers said the board decided not to punish Fort-
ney and Harris for that particular claim, saying the
evidence resented was unsubstantiated.

“We iglt the evidence presented did not prove
whether or not an hing of that nature even hap-
pened,” Rogers saidit

Younger, who placed sixth in the election, told
the Board of Claims he and \Valker, who placed
eighth, were bicycling around central campus
around 2 a.m. on Oct. 4 with SGA senator at large
Kevin Kidd han ing up posters and patrolling for
violations when t cy saw Fortney/Harrie signs post-
ed over “Final Four” posters.

Walker, who produced photographs taken on the
night of the alleged violation, said he witnessed
Fortney and Harris leaving the scene after hanging
posters over their own.

“We were talking with (Fortney and Harris) pre-
vious to the incident, saying that we didn't know
who did it,” Walker said.

Harris denied the allegation in tears.

“I'm not a malicious or vindictive person at all,”
she said. “I’ve been really hurt by the things that
have been said tonight.”

\VASHING'I‘ON ~ Black men energized by
the huge rally in the nation‘s capital began spread-
ing the spirit yesterday, makin r plans to clean up
inner—city neighborhoods back oine, register vot—
ers and simply help each other survive.

As \Vashington got back to normal, meanwhile,
both black and white members of Congress urged
President Clinton to create a commission to study
America's racial divisions.

After Monday's long day of prayer, songs and
speeches, many men traveled all night by bus, car
or train to return home in time for work yesterday,
tired but still inspired by the brotherhood they felt
on the national Mall. Others who only saw the
event on TV said they too were uplifted.

“I hope it reverberates around the country in
energizing people ri ht where they are,"joseph E.
Lowery, president o the Southern Christian Lead—

Some men said they already are volunteers in
their communities but left \Vashington determined

Republicans try to save budget plan
“'ASHINGTON —~ Determined to ensure

passage of their huge budget—balancing bill, House
Republican leaders agreed yesterday to boost
Medicare reimbursements for rural America and
considered other late changes in Medicaid and
environmental provisions.

Speaker Newt Gingrich and other GOP leaders
are meeting daily with rank—and—file lawmakers
nervous over numerous pieces of the seven—year
package of spending reductions and tax cuts.

The House plans to vote Thursday on extract—
ing $270 billion in savings from Medicare, the
biggest portion ofthe deficit-cutting bill.

It will vote next Tuesday on the entire $894 bil-
lion measure, just as the Senate debates a similar
bill. ‘

No, one doubts that majority Republicans will
force both measures through the House, ignoring
President Clinton’s veto threats. But Gingrich and
his deputies may change provisions on health, labor
protection, oil drilling and other items to ensure
against significant defections.

Possible ‘Thrill Killer' arrested in Texas

DALLAS — A murder parolee killed 11 people
for their money or just the “thrill of killing,“
authorities said as the man was jailed yesterday,
charged in six slayings.

“Robbery was the motive in at least some of
these," said Greg Davis, a Dallas County assistant
district attorney. “But in others, it was just the
thrill of killing."

_Iuan Rodriguez Chavez, 27, was being held in
lieu of 600,000 bond, charged with capital murder,
which could bring the death penalty. Prosecutors
were preparing to charge him in the five other
killings.

All 11 people were killed between March and
july, including ﬁve on a single day: July 2.

“As far as killings, we believe this is the most
prolific suspect in recent times," said police
spokesman Ed Spencer.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — A jury of four blacks
and eight whites was chosen today to hear arson
charges against a black man accused of burning

interracial dating.

After individually questioning about two—thirds
of the ()7 prospective jurors, US. District Judge
Myron Thompson announced the panel of 12, plus
two alternates, had been chosen for the trial of
Christopher Lynnjohnson.

A large number of potential jurors stood up

which drew widespread attention to the rural east
Alabama town of \Vedouee.

johnson was charged in federal court with burn-
ing down Randolph County High School in
\Vedowee on Aug. 4, 1904, after weeks of racial
protests over the principal's stand against interra-
cial dating at the spring prom.

But, “that doesn't matter,” he
said. “They don’t ask."

True, they didn't ask. I told
them anyway.

“They” refers to UK assistant
coach Delray Brooks, a
Rick Pitino protege from
Providence, who is leading
UK‘s junior varsity team in
its inaugural year.

Brooks laughed over the
phone when I told him a
few days before tryouts that
I intended to attend.

Above them. all around,

fans danced, whistled and cheered
for the hardwood skills of these
athletes.

Iwondered

About six hours later, I stood
on the same court —— minus the
fans, minus the players, plus a few
hours of sleep. It was just myself
and about 40 other college guys,
trying out for UK’s junior varsity
basketball team.

We were wondering.

I, for one, was very nervous,
even frightened. I hadn't played
on a team —— for any organized
sport ~ since eighth grade. I
played basketball that year, sort of.
I was listed on the team, anyway,
but mostly for moral support. (I
grew fond of keeping the bench
warm and tidy.)

And worse. there is ample proof
that my bench experience was the
highlight ofmy athletic career.

I didn't have to wonder about
the guys around me as we waited
for the tryouts to begin at 7:30
a.m. on Sunday. These guys, I
later learned, were very good and
very fast. And each of them want
ed — very badly -— his name pen«
ciled onto the junior varsity team's

thanks anyway.
I just wanted a story.

The da after the phone call
with Brooks, I checked in at the
University Health Service to get
my ph sical.

If t ere is one thing I remem—
ber about eighth-grade athletics, it
is that guy doctors always did
physicals on the guys. This situa—
tion was one of those unwritten
laws of the universe — never bro-
ken.

I guess that's one of those dif—
ferences between college and
grade school — girls are allowed
to give physicals (blush) to guys:
blonde girls, kind of young, too.

Yeah, next story.

I woke up about 5:30 a.m. Sun-
day. I turned off my alarm clock,
went through the morning rou-
tine. I dressed like I thought a base
ketball player would - sweatshirt
and sweatpants hiding a T—shirt
and shorts.

Tryouts began inside the (Ioli—
scum at 7:30 a.m. Clean-up crews
still were picking up the refuse of
the basketball madness that ended
less than seven hours before.

remember much of it. I think I
made a couple of shots during the
scrimmage. I know I missed a lot
more.

The coaches stood back and
watched — seldom interrupting
the drills.

Afterwards, Brooks said that
was because he didn’t have to
interfere.

“It‘s nice to see when you tell a
group of guys to go out and do
something and they do it as hard
as they can," he said.

Does that mean the UK's varsi-

“Sometimes when a you yet a

The connection with the Allman Broth—
ers Band goes a little bit farther than just
the song structure, though.

Longtime Allmans’ producer Johnny
Sandlin produced the album, adding his
Southern groove expertise to the mix.

Blue Miracle has been compared by crit—
ics to everyone from James Brown to San—
tana, but the inﬂuence lies in a deeper
shade of soul.

Blue Miracle is Little Feat on funk
steroids.

Fans of local psychedelic-funk group
Catawampus probably will love this band.
Both have the same funk background, but
Blue Miracle goes a bit deeper into the
Southern hillbilly sound than anything in
the Catawampus Universe.

a burning desire for someone you cannot have. Day
and night, night and day, your thoughts are pos-
sessed by this unwinnable treasure. This person is
all you talk about. The longing eats away at your
sanity like a well, like a cancer, until you can
take no more and throw yourself off a bridge to
end the pain.

Leo (July 23 — Aug. 22) As you are walking
downtown, your wallet is stolen. As the mugger
runs away, you coolly pull the remote control
device out ofyour back pocket and activate the tiny
electric shock device you had the foresight to wire
into it. You retrieve your property and leave the
thief twitching violently on the ground.

Virgo (Aug. 25 - Sept. 22) \Vhile strolling in the
forest, you chance upon the Tooth Fairy. You
sneak up behind her and beat her over the head
with a lead pipe, screaming, “You cheated me in
seventh grade, you lying slut!" Then you steal all
her quarters and leave her for dead.

Libra (Sept. 23 - ()Ct. 22) You design a sophisti—
cated pair of gloves which leave your roommate’s
ﬁngerprints on anything they touch, and use them
to commit a brutal series of strangulation murders
which, happily, all get blamed on your hapless
roomie.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 — Nov. 21) You receive five
free years of season tickets to UK basketball games.
Those years are: 2070, 2071, 2095, 1981, and 4003.
Have a good time.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) 24 hours a day,
seven days a week, you will hear country music in
your head. Country when you wake up in the
morning, country when you're eating lunch, coun-
try when you‘re watching television. No matter
what you do, you won’t be able to block it out. Just
country, country and more country. How awful.
The crappy music eats away at you until you can
take no more and throw yourself off a cliff to
escape the pain.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 -Jan. 19) You get up from
your seat in the back of the lecture hall to pick up a
handout from the front desk, trip on the first step,
and bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce all the way
down to the front of the room. On the upside, you
can’t hear the whole class laughing at you because
you are unconscious.

Cryptoaquarius (a sign for my dad, and him
only) You doctor gives you medication that enables
you to eat that revolting peanut-butter-and-banana
concoction you like so much without getting an
upset stomach.

Pisces (Feb. 19 — March 20) Did I promise you
I'd stop picking on you so mercilessly and go beat
up on some other sign? Honestly? I must have
been really drunk or something when I wrote that.
I'm not so sure that I really want to switch. You've
been such a great punching bag for so long, I don't
see why we shouldn’t keep such a highly satisfying
(at least, for me) relationship going forever, for
richer or poorer, till my resignation as astrologer
do us part.

wheelchair users and were required to do
everyday activities like using the elevator and

Hennel found tasks which are easy
