Kitty facts
Cats can hear at
I00,000 cycles per sec-

ond.

This just "happens"
to be the same pitch as
a mouse’s squeak.

Cats sleep, on aver-
age, a whopping l6 hours
a day. This is about
twice the snooze time
the average human
needs a day.

Female cats can have
two or three litters of
kittens a year.

This means that dur-
ing an average lifespan.
a female cat can have
more than I00 kittens!

The record for the
most kittens ever born
to one cat was more
than 420 in a life span
of 18 years. .

One cat survived for
four weeks without food
or water. Maybe there's
something to that “nine
lives" thing.

A cat spends about a
third of its day grooming
itself.

For a human. that
would be three hours of
primping a day. Maybe
that’s why so many girls
love cats.

The oldest cat ever
lived to be 36 years old,
which is incredible con-
sidering the average life
span of a cat is about ID
to 12 years.

The longest distance
ever traveled by a cat
was 1,500 miles.

The kitty tracked its
former human family all
the way from California
to Oklahoma.

In ancient Egypt. cats
were held in such high
regard that killing a cat
was illegal.

Killing a kitty back
then could even be con-
sidered for a punishment
of death.

"This house is a part of where I am today," said Stephanie Bruning (above), a historic preservation graduate student who lives in the villa
attached to the Pope House, which was home years ago to Sen. John Pope. She described how much work will go into part of the house (below).

House of history

UK students. trust heading up renovations
as part of historic preservation project

By Piper Lawson
CONTRIBUTING WRITER

and Jessica Coy
iii—WS—EDITOR

Stepping into the Pope
House invites you to travel
back to 1811, when it sat in the
middle of 13 acres of Kentucky
bluegrass.

Surrounded by flowers
and ancient trees. the villa.
designed by premier architect
Henry LaTrobe, was home to
Sen. John Pope and his fami-
ly. The house was continually
filled with laughing guests.
who visited the family for par-
ties and for weekend get-

aways.
Although some might
think they can still hear

laughter floating through the
hallways of the house. it's now
a different place.

Now the house is part of a

bustling college community
and is surrounded not by
acres of undeveloped land. but
by hundreds of houses.

The 188-year-01d villa. re-
designed four times and gut-
ted by fire once. is now inhab-
ited by Stephanie Bruning.

The second-year historic
preservation graduate student
lives in the Pope House practi-
cally rent-free in exchange for
helping renovate the house
and educating the public
about its history.

Living in the house. now
owned by the Bluegrass Trust
for Historical Preservation.
gives Bruning a true sense of
what it was like to be a part of
history.

“I've always had the abili-
ty with houses to see what it
was once and how people
lived.“ she said.

But not all of what the

house was could be seen until
after disaster struck.

Gay Redding. who works
with Bruning in managing the
property. said the fire. which
gutted the house in 1987. made
it possible to uncover much of
the original framework.

"The house was changed
so much over the years that
no one really knew what the
original layout looked like.“

 

Redding said. “The fire made
it possible."

The restoration of the
Pope House will not be typical
of many historical homes. In-
stead of restoring the house to
its original form. only the fa-
cade and certain rooms will
be restored so visitors can see
its underlying structure.

Dean of Fraternities Tony
Blanton said a new fraternity
would benefit students who feel
they don't fit into existing groups
and who want to make an impact
on new traditions.

“It brings out so many people
who don‘t want to go through the
process of pledging." TFC President
Josh Knipp said.

Knipp said many think new
fraternities hurt the system as a
whole. and that some feel that
adding to the Greek system will

cause housing problems and take
away members from the existing
fraternities.

But Knipp said he sees new fra-
ternities as a benefit because they
bring in new people.

Plus. he said it raises the stan-
dards during rush for existing fra-
ternities. which might have relied
only on name recognition to bring
in members.

“Every system that he ever
seen has benefited from it." he said.

The key is to get students to
respond.

“What I'm trying to do is get
any kind of feedback that we can
get and use that in our decisions."
Blanton said.

Brian Roth. lFC‘s vice presi-
dent of recruitment. said survey re-
sponses will help IFC decide if a
new fraternity is needed. He said
isn't sure what results that the sur-
vey will find.

 

The surveys are divided into
three sections: demographics.
rush activities and how deci-
sions were made on whether to
rush or not.

The concept of colonizing new
fraternities is considered regular-
ly. Every semester. the WC vice
president of recruitment must
form a committee to explore pos-
sibilities of expansion and exam»
ine the climate of the Greek sys»
tom.

“1 think we could always use a
few more." Blanton said about
adding new fraternities.

Not only will the surveys pro
vide information about the need
to colonize. but also it will show
the reasons why students rush.
the size of the town they‘re from
and if their family members were
Greek.

Knipp said this information
will help fraternities meet different
needs during rush to satisfy these
factors.

Pi Kappa Phi. UK‘s youngest
fraternity. was the last fraternity to
be added to UK‘s Greek system. in
the spring of 1995.

Proposal
shopped
around

Pieratt presents new facility

plan to Student Government
By Jill Gorin

STAFF WRITER

The Student Government Association
was presented last night with a proposal
for the new $15.4 million recreation center.

“We have been studying other schools‘
centers and found that they have much
nicer facilities than UK." said Bill Pieratt.
director of Campus Recreation.

UK does not currently have the sizable
facilities it needs to support its 25.000 stu-
dents and more than 10.000 faculty and staff.

The Seaton Center. built in 1972. is
small and often gets crowded with stu-
dents. Pieratt said.

UK exercise facilities are limited. The
University has just four basketball courts
that are offered to students only at specific
times. UK also has a work-out room with no
windows, low ventilation and few machines.

The proposal for the new center in—
cludes a five-court gym with many win-
dows and high ceilings. a four-lane jogging
track and a 12.000square-foot fitness condi—
tioning center with weight machines and
cardiovascular equipment.

The center will be open from 6 am. - 11
pm. for student convenience.

“The new center will promote a good.
healthy lifestyle," Pieratt said. “It will be a
meeting place for students. an excellent re-
cruitment tool. and a place for leadership
positions with the many jobs that will be
available.“

One SGA member said the extra cost to
students sounds reasonable.

“Most gyms in Lexington are very ex-
pensive." said Alex Settles. mechanical en-
gineering sophomore and senator at large.
“$50 is like $10 per month. which is nothing
for such an elaborate facility."

Part of the funding for the new center is
expected to come from a tuition increase of
$50 per semester. Faculty and staff. though.
will pay more to use the facilities.

“We are looking at funding through
private funds. student activities fees (to be
added to tuition) and bonds. which will be
sold by the University." Pieratt said.

If the proposal is approved in the
spring. nine months of planning will begin.
Construction would then take one to two
years The center would open in 2003.

“There are a lot of sides to the issue."
said Jimmy Glenn. civil engineering sopho-
more and senator at large. “A lot of us won't
be around to see the new center. We need to
think about what students would want 15-20
years from now. before we vote for it.”

The new center would be. located next
to the Seaton Center. and would be built as
an addition to the Lancaster Aquatic Cen-
ter. The construction would eliminate two
tennis courts.

“We had the option of eliminating
two courts or building on the field area
where students play football. soccer.
etc." Pieratt said. “We felt that since we
currently have 18 tennis courts. that
would be the best decision.“

Report: Focusing less on ACT/

Dy Autumn Foushee

Many colleges around the country
have begun to disregard standardized test
scores and focus more on academic
achievement and class rank for their ad-
mission requirements.

A report from the National Center for
Fair and Open Testing. or FairTest shows
that schools who no longer rely on ACT
and SAT scores have seen a noticeable rise
in diversity with no effect on their stan-
dards of academic excellence.

LEXINGTON — UK researchers found that a
combination of surgery and radiation is more ef-
fective than surgery alone in treating patients
whose cancer has spread to the brain.

The surgery-radiation regimen did not cure
patients or significantly extend their lives. ac-
cording to the findings published yesterday in
the Journal of the American Medical Association.

The combination could allow many brain-
cancer patients to spend their final months rela-
tively alert and lucid, rather than in the near-
vegetative state caused by brain tumors. UK doc-
tors said.

“Death due to brain cancer involves the inex-
orable loss of mental and physical abilities. and
is one of the most difficult types of death with
which patients and their families have to cope."
said Dr. Roy Patchell. a UK neuro-oncologist who
helped write the report. “We are attempting to
reduce the suffering that these patients must go
through."

In about 25 percent of all cancer patients. the
disease eventually spreads. to the brain. causing
tumors that increase suffering and hasten death.
Such “metastatic" brain tumors frequently occur
in lung cancer. a disease with a high incidence
rate in Kentucky.

Don rebounds, ends up 76.99

NEW YORK — Wall Street extended its re-

and with encouragement from an election that
might have slowed the momentum for impeach-
ment. The Dow closed up 76.99 at 8.783.14. Ad-
vancing issues on the New York Stock Exchange
led decliners 2.0611002. The NASDAQ ended up
35.14 at 1823.57.

NBA talks break off again

NEW YORK —— NBA labor talks broke off yes-

the shortest session since the lockout began July 1.

“We were just sitting around the table. and
both of us are somewhat stymied not knowing
which way to move next.“ union director Billy
Hunter said. “We just thought it might be better
to go back to our respective offices and look at
where we were.

“If we think it's appropriate. we will talk
about getting together on Friday."

Commissioner David Stern blamed the
breakup on agents. He said pressure was being
applied on union leadership by agents for high-
salaried players at the expense of middle-in-
come players.

WASHINGTON — President Clinton cele-
brated Democratic election victories yesterday,
calling them “a vindication” of his policies over
politics.

Democrats “won because they had a clear
message that was about America." Clinton de-
clared. “The American people basically said to all
of us. all of us. ‘We sent you there to work for us
and we want you to find a way to do it."’

After a late burst of GOP ads that tried to tar
Democrats with the brush of Clinton's behavior
in the Monica Lewinsky afl'air, Democrats gained
House seats and lost nothing to Republicans in
the Senate.

Voterturnoutz31pereentorless

WASHINGTON — Citizen participation in
this year’s midterm election was about 36 percent
or 37 percent of the voting-age population. down
slightly from 38.4 percent in 1994, analysts said
yesterday.

That’s typical for most midterm elections
since 1974. Elections analyst Curtis Gans said his
preliminary estimate of the 1998 turnout would
range from 36 percent to 37 percent. Voter
turnout decreased in 37 states and increased in
just 11 compared to 1994, he said. The Voter News
Service pegged turnout at an even 37 percent.
The final official result will not be available for
weeks until all absentee and write-in ballots are
certified.

Witt: | controlled Playboy photo shoot

NEW YORK — Playboy says twotime Olympic
skating champion Katarina Witt is the first celebri-
ty athlete to pose nude for the magazine.

“I wouldn‘t have done this 10 years ago."
Witt, 32. told USA Today. “Then. even though
I’m European and never had a problem with nu-
dity, I had a different perspective of nude pic-
tures. As you get older. you change your mind."

Witt didn't explain what changed her mind
but said she had control of what was done during
her three-day photo shoot in Hawaii.

Sondler reportedly honors picket line

NEW YORK - Adam Sandler apparently
looks for the union label. A spokesman for the
union representing some 2,200 ABC technical
workers said the actor honored their picket line
by canceling an appearance on “Good Morning
America" to promote his new movie. The Water-
boy.

An ABC spokeswoman said she did not know
why the actor did not appear, and she could not
confirm whether the union action had forced
ABC to cancel the West-Coast trip planned by
“Good Moming America.“ ABC locked the work-
ers out after they staged a oneday strike.

“What we are doing here
is different. This will be a con-
tinuing project." Redding said.

The trust is choosing only
to renovate parts of the house
not because they’re skimping.
but because everything they
do has to have an educational
benefit to it.

“The process is the pro-
gram," Redding said.

In addition to being cores-
idential manager of the house.
Bruning is one of 12 students
in the master’s historic preser-
vation program at UK.

The students work with
the trust using the latest tech-
nology to help them find the
original house beneath the
layers that have been added
over the years.

“The Pope House is used
as a learning tool,” said Julie
Riesenweber. director of the
historic preservation pro-

gram. “The renovation is done
very carefully."

Bruning and other mem-
bers of her class meet at the
house periodically to discuss
methods for renovation and
restoration. They work in
spurts depending on the
weather.

”We work when the weath-
er is good because the chemi-
cals we use are affected by the
temperature," Bruning said.

They are uncovering the
original 1811 wallpaper used
in the house and are replacing
the original staircase.

Bruning said her involve—
ment with the house has
strengthened her desire to
continue in the field of his.
toric preservation.

“I have been involved
with the house since 1994,”
she said. “This is a part of
where I am today."

Goal-keeping Cats

Season-long NCAA goals still well within
UK's grasp but must win MAC Tournament

By mam cult
STAFF WRITER
The Wildcats‘ NCAA

Tournament dreams face their
toughest challenge this week-
end when UK hosts the Mid-
American Conference Touma
ment.

Seven teams converge on
Lexington to see who is the
best in the MAC. and win a
berth in the NCAA Tourna-
ment. Competition starts Fri-
day with the quarterfinals. The
semifinals are on Sunday and
the finals are next weekend.

“The season's record
means nothing." said UK coach
Ian Collins. “You can throw it
all out and begin again."

The Western Michigan
Broncos battle the undefeated
Akron Zips in the first game
Friday at noon. At 2:30 pm,
the Bowling Green Falcons
take on the Marshall Thunder-
ing Herd.

The 5:30 pm. game pits
the Northern Illinois Huskies
against the Buffalo Bulls, and
at 8 pm. the Eastern Michi-
gan Eagles attempt to upset
the Wildcats (11-8 overall, 7-1
MAC).

The Sunday semifinals
will match the highest remain-

ing seed against the lowest, the
second highest vs. the second
lowest. And the winners of
each semifinal game will face
off Nov. 15 at the home field of
the highest remaining seed.

For UK to accomplish its
NCAA Tournament goal, it
must win the MAC Tourna-
ment, Collins said. Unlike the
regular season, a single loss
means total elimination.

“Winning is the only
thing that matters," defender
Lee Baker said.

But UK is not going to
make the same mistake it made
against Belmont on Oct. 18.

The team overlooked the
small Nashville college be-
cause of an upcoming game
against top-ranked Indiana
three days later. UK’s defense
was demolished and the Cats
took home their most dis-
heartening loss.

"Our only focus is Eastern
Michigan." Baker said.

In spite of the Cat's crush-
ing defeat over Eastern Michi-
gan two weeks ago, the team is
well aware that Eastern Michi-
gan will come to the UK Soccer
Complex seeking revenge.

“It’s hard to beat a team
twice." defender Tyler Cook
said.

Hard work paved the way
for most of UK‘s victories this
season, and the majority of its
losses came on defensive mis-
takes.

Even the loss against No.1
ranked Indiana came when
the defensive thought process
stopped. Giovanni Fernandes
was upset after the loss, say-
ing UK was a strong enough
team to beat Indiana.

But all of the games will
be hard-fought; Collins called
them battles. Like any army
fighting on it’s home turf, the
home-field advantage will play
huge for the Cats. UK has lost
only two of its last 19 home
games. posting an 8-1 home
record this year.

The Cats second advan~
tage is psychological. They en-
ter the tournament with
shutouts in three of the last
four games.

“Last weekend gave us a
lot of momentum," midfielder
Scott Sersen said.

Collins said the team has
done much better defensively
in the last portion of the season.

With the confidence
gained from shutouts and an
increasingly impenetrable de-
fensive wall. the Cats have
their best chance to win the
MAC Tournament.

“It is the best chance we’ve
had in the three years since
I’ve been here." Baker said.

 

Women’s soccer team falls

Michigan ends Wildcat season on sour note,
as Wolverines ride tough defense to 1-0 win

STAFF INTER

Five seconds isn't much
time to put together a come-
back. something the UK
women's soccer team learned
the hard way on Sunday.

In UK’s last regular season
game against Michigan. a game
that seemed destined for over-
time, Wolverine Amber Beren-
dowsky scored with five sec-
onds left to down the Cats. 10.

The loss was the second in
three games for UK. leaving
them 8-7-3 heading into the

Southeastern Conference
Tournament.
The Cats showed strong de

tense against the thh-ranked
Wolverines despite the goal in
the closing seconds. Michigan
needed 14 shots before one
found the back of the net.
thanks in part to nine saves by
UK goalie Carrie Kuhnell.

The defensive standoff fol-
lowed a game against Dayton
last Wednesday in which the of-
fense shined for both sides A 3
3 tie to the Flyers ensured the

' v

Cats a regular-season winning
record. something they missed
last year with an 811-1 finish.

UK and Dayton went score
less in two overtime periods af-
ter both teams scorched the
nets for six goals in regulation.

Dayton opened the scoring
when Angie Sparks scored less
than two minutes into the game.

UK returned the favor and
raised them one. after a goal by
McMaster tied the game and a
goal by Debbie Blake gave the
Cats a 2-1 lead at the half.

in the second half, though.
the Cats couldn’t keep the Fly-
ers at bay. Dayton tied it 2-2
and wouldn't fold even after
McMaster's second goal of the
game put UK up 3-2.

With five minutes left,
Dayton‘s Megan McKnight
tied the game for the third and
final time.

“With Dayton. we knew
we were the better team. so
it's always harder when you
don‘t win those games." Mc-
Master said.

McMaster said losing the
final game at Michigan was

rough. but they're ready for
the next challenge. “We've got
good momentum and we‘re
confident heading into the
SEC Tournament." she said.

That very tournament
kicks off Thursday in
Tuscaloosa. Ala., when UK
plays Ole Miss at 5 pm. The
Cats have good reason to be
confident against the Runnin'
Rebels. who post a 3-5 SEC
record and are 962 overall.

Despite its SEC record.
Ole Miss is second in the
Western division. which says
more about that division than
about their ability. Alabama
(6-2) is the only team in the
West with a winning record.

The teams from the East
will likely provide the stiffest
competition. Florida. unde-
feated in SEC play. is vying
for its third consecutive title
and Vanderbilt. second in the
division at 62. looks to win its
first title since 1994. And Ten-
nessee (5-3) and South Caroli-
na (4-4) no doubt are hoping
for revenge for the pasting the
Cats handed them in the regu-
lar season.

Should the Cats claw to the
title, it would be their first
since 1995 and second under
headcoach Warren Lipka.
