In one split second. Susan
Crouch's life was turned upside
down.

On April 26. 2000, her niece,
KaShawn Botts. was killed in a car
accident. The driver of the other car
was drunk.

After the death of her niece,
Crouch became involved with Moth-
ers Against Drunk Driving. She now
makes speeches around the state
about the hazards of drunk driving,
like the one she made at Memorial
Hall last night.

“I have seen what drinking and
driving can do to you," she told the
audience in an emotional speech.

“I think the largest
point that needs to be
emphasized needs to be
safe drinking.” Marcum
said. “I believe if people
are educated. incidents
related to alcohol will decrease, espe

UK clinic
experienced
crime spike

last week

Seven instances of stolen items
at Kentucky Clinic reported to UK

By Megan Boehnke
THE KENTUCKY mun

UK police have opened an investigation after a
rash of thefts reported at the Kentucky Clinic
over the last several weeks, said Lt. Greg Hall.

“We are aware of a pattern over there." Hall
said. “We are reviewing video tapes and following
up with businesses that may have been affected by
the stolen credit cards."

Seven thefts have been reported in the last
week at the clinic. according to police crime logs.
Purses. wallets. cash. electronics and small trin-
kets were among items taken, Hall said.

“It‘s the sort of stuff that makes you scratch
your head and go, ‘Why would anyone want to
steal a bobblehead?’ " he said.

Most of the items were taken from offices and
workspaces, Hall said.

Craig Clough. chief operating officer for the
clinic, said there have only been two minor thefis
during this time.

Rough weather stalls
Pakistan relief efforts
after earthquake

By Paul Watson
L05 AMGELES nuts

MUZAFFARABAD, Pakistan — Torrential
rain and hail slowed relief efforts yesterday
near ground zero of last weekend‘s massive
earthquake as hundreds of injured survivOrs
continued to stream into makeshifi hospitals in
devastated cities.

The afternoon storm that rolled across Kash-
mir’s towering Hindu Kush mountains ground-
ed relief flights into the region and threatened
to set off new landslides and collapse buildings
still standing after Saturday’s 7.6 magnitude
temblor.

In the northern Pakistani city of Mansehra.
the deluge flooded tents that doctors had used to
perform surgeries and forced stretcher-bearers
to slog through soupy mud with injured patients
that included several girls in torn school uni-
forms.

They were among 40 students reported res-
cued in nearby Balakot after being trapped be-
neath the rubble of their schools for more than
three days. Most of the hungry. dehydrated chil-
dren would need to have limbs amputated be
cause gangrene had set in while they waited to
be rescued. doctors said.

The corpses of another 60 students were
pulled out of the Shaheen Foundation School
Monday night. according to local reports from a
once-picturesque holiday town nestled in a
mountain valley.

Pakistan's confirmed death toll reached
23.000 yesterday with more than 50,000 others in-
jured. the interior ministry said. United Nations
officials estimate more than 2.5 million people

that all college students drink.

she said. "I now realize that not

One of Crouch‘s main goals
in her speech was to emphasize
the fragility of life.

“It can all be taken away
from you." she said. “I would
give anything to have KaShawn
here with us. but that's not pos-
sible. Life is a gift. Enjoy it. hilt
don‘t take it for granted. Take
care of yourselves and value
your life.“

Senior Emily Danison was
touched by Crouch‘s message.

“lt's emotional to see a rela-
tive of a person who was
killed." Danison said. “That re-
ally hits home."

In her speech. Crouch urged
students to plan ahead when
they know they‘ll be drinking.

“I don‘t have anything
against drinking," she said. “i
do have a problem with people
drinking and driving.

“You never know what will

"The police department is

“We need people to come for»

He also said individuals

linebacker

When Braxton Kelley was
younger. he read Sports Illus-
trated and dreamed just like
every other kid with football
or baseball or basketball
dreams.

So last week. when the
weekly sports magazine
named the
UK middle
linebacker
one of the
nation‘s 12
best true
freshmen.
Kelley was-
n't disap-
pointed.

“When
I was look-
ing at
Sports Il~
lustrated I
a l w a y s
wanted to be on the cover."
Kelley said. “But its great to
be in there. We been looking
at it a lot."

Kelley has been a bright
spot for a defense criticized
for not stopping the run and
lacking speed to stop the
pass. The UK defensive line
is banged up like the rest of
the team and Kelley has seen
more than his fair share of
backs busting through the
line.

His 130 seniorseason
tackles at LaGrange (Ga)
High School have translated
well into the Southeastern
Conference. He's third in
team tackles (32). behind se-
nior safety Muhammad Ab-
dullah and sophomore line
backer Wesley Woodyard.
Last Saturday. Kelley was a
game captain and made sevr
en tackles.

Big things were already
expected from Kelley and
he's stepped up starting
every game this season.

“When you look at all the
freshmen that are playing
great in the Southeastern
Conference." Kelley said. “1
just think it‘s a big honor."

A losing battle
Kelley isn't the only new
face at UK going from the
routine of winning to losing.
His linebackers‘ coach.

Kohn seals win at Tampa,

Boyle County High School.
Smith won five straight state
titles from 1999 to 2003 and
two of those seasons his
teams went undefeated.

The weekly grind of dom-
ination has turned to a week-
ly series of setbacks for
Smith.

“You have to stay focused
on your plan." Smith said af-
ter practice yesterday. "We
have to keep the players pre-
pared. We may not be getting
the results right now. but we
have to understand the
plan.“

Quarterbacks coach Kurt

Lexington after spending six
seasons at Ole Miss. exercis-
es traditional sports cliche
instead of just saying it.

“You know on the field we
