Four students
chosen to be
ambassadors

By RESA WRIGHT
Contributing Writer

Four UK students will be the ﬁrst
to represent the University across
the commonwealth as pan of the
new UK Ambassadors Program.

The students, selected individuals
who will serve as official public re-
lations representatives for the Uni-
versity, were notiﬁed of their ap-
pointment late last week, said
Becky Jordan, assistant dean of stu-
dents.

Jordan, who chaired of the inter-
viewing committce that selected the
ambassadors, said students chosen
are Brad Chambliss, Christa Col-
lins. David Hassler and Kimberly
Mayo.

The criteria for applying to the
positions included: a comprehen-
sive and working knowledge of the
University, good speaking skills. a
3.0 grade point average, ample time
and at least 30 completed hours at
UK.

Students applying for the position
were nominated by faculty and staff
and received applications. Upon
completion of the applications, stu-
dents then were interviewed and
chosen.

The ambassadors will serve many
roles for UK, including Speaking at
merit weekends, UK preview
nights, high school assemblies,
alumni groups and community or-
ganizations. They will also will
serve as media contacts, escort for-
eign dignitaries and help train ad-
vising conference student assistants.

This program, which will be
housed in the King Alumni Build-
ing, has been “in the works for
about a year," said Chambliss, who
thought of the idea last fall. “it
started out as a ‘what if‘ and ended
up a reality.“

Chambliss suggested his idea to
James Kuder, vice chancellor for
student affairs, who helped Cham-
bliss get both student and faculty
suppon for the program.

UK President Charles Wething-
ton OK’d the project and obtained
funding for the group.

Each student will receive a
51.000 scholarship per semester for

program that will have

their work and will be expected to
spend on the average of 10 hours
per week working for the Universi-
ty.

“I‘m really excited to be on the
ground floor of a program that will
have a long life span," Chambliss
said.

Another student involved in the
program is John Ragan. Ragan. also
appointed to his position and
awarded a scholarship. will serve as
a liaison between the ambassadors
and faculty adviser, Katie Daugher-
ty.

“1 will primarily be scheduling
appointments and presentations for
the ambassadors and doing admin-
istrative and clerical type work,”
Ragan said. “I think we have a very
diverse, qualiﬁed and talented
group and, most importantly, they
are excited about the program."

Daugherty agreed and said, “Half
the battle is over because they (am-
bassadors) are so wonderful."

She said the program is some-
thing UK has needed for a long
time.

“It shows that UK is constantly
moving forward and constantly im-
proving."

Before the ambassadors begin
their duties, they will go through a
monthlong training period, during
which time they will learn about as-
pects of the University and effec-
tive communication and public
speaking skills.

Mayo, a Spanish junior, said she
is looking forward to the training.
She especially is looking forward to
having the chance “to speak to peo—
ple who for some reason feel they
can‘t go to school. I want to show
them there are options and UK is
the place you can do it.“

Idea of all—black male school discussed

By JILL LEWIS
Contributing Writer

The issue of whether founding an
all-black male school in Lexington
would be the solution to reducing
the dropout rate among black stu-
dents was debated Wednesday night
by several educators during a town
meeting of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People.

The speakers at the town meet»
ing, which was held at the YWCA
East End branch, discuSsed the is-
sue of whether black males would
be more productive in society if
they attended an all-black school.

“We have a serious problem in
the school system." said lvan
Banks, chairman of the Department
of Education at Kentucky State
University. “Black males need and
deserve an education.

“If we have dedication to integra-

tion, then we won't have a crisis in
the community with black males
. Schools are not meeting the needs
of blacks. They are insufﬁcient"

The nearly 40 people in atten-
dance seemed to support the idea of
an all-black school because the
dropout rate for black males in gen-
:ml :" high

Banks also discussed developing
what he called a “targeted assis-
tance" program, which would focus
on high school students who would
be considered high-risk candidates
to drop out of school

It would combat the low retention
rate and be a step forward, he said.

As an example of how it would
be the worth the effort. Banks com-
pared the cost of an education for a
college student to the cost of hous-
ing an inmate in prison

He said the government “would
rather spend 830.000 on someone in

In the pasL L'K has shown a ten-
den. ‘.~ to underestimate its MAC op-
ponents.

\Tost recently, the Cats slipped by

Miami (Ohio), 23-20, in the season
opener. The game was nearly a car
bon copy of UK‘s ﬁrst game of last
season. in which the Cats escaped
with a 20-17 victory Over Central
Michigan.

Tomorrow's game could become
another LIK-MAC dogfight, but
don't expect a clash of the titans.

The Golden Flashes are coming
off a loss to Ball State (2-2) and a
47-0 bashing at the hands of North
Carolina State two weeks ago. Kent
will be playing its fourth consecu-
tive road game to start the 1991
5038011.

The Cats, meanwhile, are coming
off a 13-10 loss at Indiana. UK
went into that game an 11-point un-
derdog.

Kentucky owns a 16—6-1 all-time
record against the MAC and has
won all three of its past games with
Kent.

we must stop the run better," he
said. “If those areas don‘t improve,
we're gonna have some problems
against anyone."

UK has surrendered 406 yards
rushing in Its first two games. But
Wildcat runners have been able to
muster only 179 yards rushing.

“Our offensive line must get bet-
ter, but our backs have to learn that
you just can‘t take what the line
gives you,“ Curry said. “You've got
to extend ii and get some yardage
on your own.

“When we get a crease, we’ve got

Redd to put a move on a guy or

Cats have won nine straight night
games at home dating back to the
1987 season.

Freddie’s back

No, this isn't the new “Nightmare
on Elm Street” movie.

Remember Freddie
Yeah, Maggard.

He was UK’s starting quarter-
back in 1989 and pan of 1990 be-
fore suffering a shoulder injury.
Brad Smith stepped in to take over
the job, and Maggard seemingly
had disappeared.

Maggard, a senior, will be
Smith's backup in tomorrow‘s
game and has almost recovered,
Curry said.

“Freddie is throwing the best
since he got hurt," he said. “He
could have got down on himself
and poured when Brad won the
starting job. but he never did. He’s
kept working to get back in there.
We wouldn't hesitate to put him in
the game Saturday.“

Playing smart

The Cats have only been penal-
ized seven times for 45 yards in
their ﬁrst two games, which is tops
in the SEC. UK drew only two yel-
low ﬂags in last week's game at In-
diana.

The last time UK played rugby
powerhouse Tennessee Tech. the
Cats could only muster four
players. Rugby. like football, re-
quires 11 players on the ﬁeld
from each team.

Club rugby, however, isn’t
bound by those petty guidelines.
The game. being the source of it
all, must go on.

The Cats simply picked up the
rest of their team from the Lex-
ington Blackstones and. even
with the bigger, older Black-
stones, lost the ﬁnal of Western
Kentucky’s Banshi Tournament
to the Tech team.

“Tennessee Tech has been a
power in rugby for a long time,”
said Taylor Marret. match secre-
tary. “They beat us even with the
Blackstones.”

The Cats will meet tomorrow
morning, at the crack of dawn,
and make the three-hour drive to
kaville, Tcnn., to take on
Tech at their home field. As al-
ways, UK will travel in its own
personal vehicles.

“The University was going to
charter us a jet, but that fell
through,“ Manet joked.

So have the Cats‘ opening two
games. The Cats began with
Western and lost 24-6. They fol-
lowed that up last weekend with
a 20-7 loss to the Blackstones.

But Manet. who co-coaches

Tennessee Tech

the team. ﬁnds the silver-lining
lacing the muddy and bloody
UK Rugby Field.

“We looked 180 percent better
(against the Blackstones) than
we did at Western,” Marret said.
“We played together. The guys
are getting a better grasp on the
game itself."

The ﬁrst half of the season —
during the fall semester — tradi-
tionally is a time of growth for
the Cats. The young players are
getting used to scrums and tries
and the bnitalities of rugby,
while the vets, like Marret, play
hard and keep an eye on the
rooks.

The brightest spot in UK’s
loss to Western was David
“Otis" Barnes’ try (a try is anal-
ogous to football’s touchdown
but is worth only four points).

“His try was textbook rugby,"
Marret said. “It was triggered by
a key steal by Pat Dougherty."

Barnes. the most talented
player on the team, scored all
seven UK points, four on the try,
two on the extra kick and anoth-
er point on a kick.

Tomorrow's game will begin
a grueling six-game road trip for
the UK squad.

“We owed a lot of people,

Manet said of the horrible
schedule. "And a lot of people
owed us.

“It was a case where we could
only get in touch with the people
we owed."

“Overall I was pleased with our
second-place ﬁnish," Schultz said.
“We had a good solid first meet.
We hope to go to Montana and give
our best shot."

Top of the beat: Vols, Knights and copy Cats

CALL 911: 10 reasons why the
Cats will slaughter the Kent Golden
Flashes tomorrow.

1. UK still hasn’t forgotten last
weekend’s loss and probably never
will.

2. TheCatsareabetterteamthan
the North Carolina State team that
beat Kent 47-0 two week ago.

3. The Cats haven‘t blown any-
one out since 1989 and are due.

4. The Cats mnning game is due
to explode. This ﬁgures to be a
good time considering there hasn’t
been much ﬂash in the Golden
Flashes‘ run defense. In three
games they have given up 716 rush-
ing yards.

5. With Kent concentrating on
stopping the run, UK quarterback
Brad Smith -—- if he can ﬁnd his
center — will pick Kent's defense
apart.

6. Joey Couch.

7 Kent changed its name from
Kent State.

8. The Cats play in the mighty
Southeastern Conference and Kent
doesn’t.

9. The Cats haven't lost a home
night game since 1986.

10. Tomorrow‘s game isn’t on
national television.

Jamaica native joins UK faculty

By JOHN DYER FORT
'jcritributtng Write'

Orville Hammond has perhaps
in: of the most eclectic resumes at
. k

After finishing high school in his
"atiye Jamaica, Hammond, now an
lif‘lSL’lnl professor of Jazz Studies
.:2 l'K. played piano on the cruise
«up circuu entertaining passengers
v‘ island-hopping commercial
chips.

~\tter that, he played in the
iounge at the Ocho Rios, Jamaica
wiayboy (,‘luo.

“That’s where I learned the bun-
izy bop," Hammond said, laughing.

For the past seven years, Harn~
" ind has been in the L'nitcd States.
his jazz piano style has
gained him recognition. He has
worked in the recording studio for
\‘ievie Wonder. He toured with Jim-
aiw Cult, playing keyboards for the
reggae legend. And he has opened
ltli Bill Cosby. Gary Burton and
iiiantord \larsalis.

Eiammond's repertmrc includes
George Gershwm, Cole Porter,
Duke Ellington and other jazz
greats. For the most part, however,
Hammond prefers to play his own
original jazz “i love to improvise,"
5" says.

He was not always encouraged to
you. it up.

“I played the piano at morning

u my“.

chapel in high school." said Ham-
mond, who joined UK's faculty this
year. “It was boring playing the
same old hymns every day. I'd try
to elaborate a little bit. make it
more interesting. Finally, one of the
teachers told me to play the music
the way it was written."

Before leaving Jamaica. Ham—
mond taught jazz piano at the Ja-
maica School of Music. On the
side, he was writing commercial
jingles and even appeared in a tele-
vision ad for Red Star Beer.

Hammond then decided he want-
ed to continue his music studies and
accepted a scholarship to Oberlin
College in Ohio. Alter graduating
from Oberlin, he got his master‘s in
music at the Eastitian School of
Music in Rochester. NY.

Hammond has always wanted to
combine playing j'd/J. studying mu-
sic and teaching.

“School is one way of learning, a
very efficient way," he said.

Hammond believes music. even
jazz. and study go hand in hand.

“The idea that you are born to
play jazz is a myth. You have to
learn yOur limitations. Jazz is free-
dom within certain set parameters.“
he said.

As a new faculty member at the
UK Music Department, Hammond
will be busy. Together with Jazz
Studies director Miles Osland.
Hammond will develop a jazz cur—

riculum for the school. This will in-
clude courses in jazz theory and his-
tory. improvisation and jazz piano
and ensemble. The goal is to estab-
lish a jazz studies major for music
students.

“We're happy to have him here,
not only as a great piano player and
instructor." Osland said, “but to‘
gether we're going to construct a
new jazz studies curriculum."

Hammond was the featured per-
fomier when the UK Jazz Ensem-
ble, led by Osland. appeared last
Thursday at the Recital Hall in the
Otis A. Singletary Center for the
Arts.

“His forte is solo piano stylings,"
Osland said. “He had the Recital
Hall enthralled. You could hear a
pin drop, which is unique for a jazz
ensemble crowd. Then he played in
the ensemble and was still unbeliev-
able.”

Fortunately for the UK communi-
ty. Hammond will be around for
awhile. In addition to teaching
classes at UK, he is planing various
pcrfomiances, both locally and on
the national level. As soon as his
academic demands are under con-
trol, he plans to have a recital on
campus.

And eventually. he would like to
play the occasional lounge gig in
Lexington, he said.
