Bill reconstructing
state school system

signed by Wilkinson

By MARK R. CHELLGREN
Associated Press

FRANKFORT, Ky. — All sorts of distinguished Kentuckians attended
yesterday’s signing ceremony for House Bill 940, the legislation to rebuild
the state's schools into a system that passes constitutional muster.

There was Gov. Wallace Wilkinson, who said the legislation represent-
ed the most significant accomplishment since the adoption of the state
constitution. There was Franklin Circuit Judge Ray Corns, whose ruling
started the ball rolling on sweeping revisions that will take place.

Then there was 8-year-old Amy Moore, who is the whole reason for the

bill.

Amy and her classmates from the second grade class at Saffcll Street
School in Lawrenceburg were among hundreds of students, educators, leg-
islators and officials who attended the ceremony at the Famham Dudgcon

Civic Center.

She was a little vague on specifics. but Amy grasped the real reason for

the legislation.

“It’s for people who don’t have real good education. They’re helping

them," Amy said.

Wilkinson said that yesterday will stand as a historic moment in Ken-

tucky.

“Today, we stand on the shore of a new age, discovered through courage
and commitment and dedication to the hopes and dreams of our children,"

Wilkinson said.

The bill changes the way Kentucky governs its schools, teaches us chil—

dren and taxes its citizens.

The bill will introduce revolutionary ways of conducting the business of
education. including the elimination of grades for the youngest students
and committees of teachers, parents and principals to make day‘to-da} de~

cisions about how to run schools.

It will also raise the taxes people in Kentucky pay by some $1.3 billion
in the next two years. about half of which will go to pay for the school re-

fomis.

The bill began with a law suit by (i6 mostly poor and rural school dis—
tricts that complained the General Assembly had failed to meet the consti-
tutional obligation of providing an “efficient system of common schools."

Coms, then the Supreme Court, ruled that the system was unconstitu-
tional, in large measure because the quality of education depended to a
great extent on whether a child lived in a rich or poor school district.

Wilkinson said that discrimination will end,

“It is a system where geography is a subject to be taught. not a factor
that determines the quality of a child‘s education,” Wilkinson said.

Corns said he was pleased with the product of the legislature. but
warned that some other fundamental changes must be made.

“We‘ve got to educate Kentuckians on the value of education.“ he said.

Senate President Pro Tem John “Eek" Rose, D--Winchester. agreed that

the work on education is not over.

“We must continue to work together to make certain that all the children
of the commonwealth are lifted from the squalor of ignorance so that they.
in the final analysis. may lead this great commonwealth to the destination
to which we commonly aspire." Rose said.

Inmate in UK honors program allowed to complete degree

By JULIE ESSELMAN
Special Projects Writer

Yesterday morning UK honors
student Dwight Allen felt like his
dream had been shattered.

Allen, an inmate at Blackburn
Correctional Complex who has
been commuting to UK for over a
year, was informed early this week
that the State Corrections Cabinet
denied his request to finish his po-
litical science degree at UK.

Last year the state cancelled its
study release program in which in-
mates are allowed to attentl college

classes away
from prison fa—
cilities. Allen
filed grievances
asking that he
be allowed to
complete his
honors studies
and advanced
political science
courses at UK
within the next
year.

But his appeals were denied. the
final decision coming this week
from Corrections Secretary John

ALLEN

Wigginton.

Allen. however, hadn’t lost hope
yesterday morning.

“I’m going to pray that I get the
help that I need and that some-
one will do what is morally right,”
he said.

By late afternoon, Allen’s hopes
were fulfilled. and his dream of
completing his education at UK
was back in tact.

After a review session yesterday.
Wigginton reversed his decision re-
garding Allen's situation, according
to correcrions spokesman Michael
Bradley.

Allen no“ will be “grandfa-
thered" through the study release
program and allowed to complete
his degree and Honors coursework
atUK.

Bradley said Wigginton stood by
the decision to cancel the study re-
lease program in favor of the con-
tinuation ol (lllrsllt‘ education at the
prison l’acilities through Murray
State University

dent Clll'l’L‘llll\ in the program at

UK dedicates new $3.5 million agriculture building

By TOM SPALDING
Executive Editor

UK's state-of-thc-art regulatory
services building has a lot of things
going for it A better equipment.
safer working conditions for em-
ployees and improved efficiency.

But the one thing agriculture of-
ficials probably are most pleased
about the $3.5 million facility is
what it does not have — stairs.

In the division's old building,
Scovell Hall, workers sometimes
had to carry delicate or potentially
harmful chemicals up and down as
many as three flights of stairs.

But not so in the Bruce Pound-
stonc Division of Regulatory Ser-
vices Building, where almost all
H.000 square feet of the building
is ﬂat.

“This building was not just mov—
ing to a new world for us." said

Doyle Pcaslee, director of the regu-
latory services division at the
building's dedication yesterday.
“It’s like moving into a new gal-
axy."

Peaslee addressed a about 150
people gathered outside the facility,
which is located off of Alumni
Drive near the Shawneetown apart-
merits.

“Those of you who were not
privileged to have been in the old
facility would have a hard time un-
derstanding just how much
more it will allow us to do what we
could not do in our old, I900-
vintage laboratories.“

The Division of Regulatory Scr-
viccs has a wide range of responsi-
bilities, including administering
Kentucky’s license laws for l‘crtia
lizcr, seed. feed and dairy products.

Sutton goes back home
to coach ()SU basketball

By OWEN CANFIELD
Associated Press

STILLWATER. Okla. W Eddie
Sutton, out of basketball for a year
after his forced resignation front
UK, was hired as the Oklahoma
State coach yesterday.

Sutton said he dreamed as a col-
lege student at Oklahoma State of
coaching. “1 always had a dream I
might some day come back to my
alma mater I’ve always thought
of Oklahoma as my home," Sutton
said.

The board of regents met for al-
most 90 minutes and then voted 7-
1 to hire Sutton as the school‘s
16th basketball coach. The only
dissenter, John Montgomery, said
he had no problem with Sutton but
felt the search process was not as
thorough as it could have been.

The vote came shortly after Uni-
\ersity President John Campbell

spoke in favor of Sutton, an Okla-
homa State graduate who played for
the Cowboys in the late 19503.
Sutton has been considered the
front-runner for the job since Leo-
nard Hamilton left last week.

“I proudly recommend Eddie Sut—
ton be employed as basketball
coach at Oklahoma State,” said
Campbell, who interviewed Sutton
over the weekend.

He recommended that Sutton be
hired with an annual salary of
$85,000 and that a five-year con-
tract be drawn up.

Sutton and his wife, Patsy, were
on hand when the regents voted.

“To both of you, welcome
home." said Regent LE. “Dean”
Stringer.

At a news conference a short
time later, Sutton’s college coach,
Henry lba, introduced him, saying,
“This is a great day for me and for
Oklahoma State."

“l'm so happy they‘re here and
back home where they belong,” Iba
said of Sutton and his wife, who
also is an OSU graduate.

The 54-year-old Sutton brings a
career record of 430- 164 in 20 years
of college coaching, with stops at
Creighton. Arkansas and UK.

Sutton has been out of coaching
for the last year, since stepping
.lsidc at [K under pressure.

During the news conference, Sut-
ton addressed the problems at UK
and also took time to address re—

“We had a

once at the University of Ken-

learned a lot there. I’m going to su-
pervise staff members a lot more
closely than I did there. 1 don't
ever want to go through an investi-
gation again and I know this uni-
versity doesn’t. "

As far as reports of a past drink—
ing problem, Sutton said, “I recog—
nized three years ago there was a
problem. I dealt with it."

He said, he thought his experi-
ence dealing with that will help in
coaching at Oklahoma State.

“I feel better prepared today to
coach Oklahoma State University
than at any other time I might have
had that opponunity," he said.

Sutton said he expects this to be
his last coaching job.

Sutton was not named in infrac-
tions that led to UK being placed
on NCAA probation. The principal
complaint cited by UK officials
concerned Sutton’s management of
a program with ﬂaws dating to the
previous regime.

Sutton stressed that the NCAA

Mapplethorpe exhibition offers provocative view of art

By HUNTER HAYES
Arts Editor

CINCINNATI -— Of the more
than 150 works in the controversial
photographic exhibition “Robert
Mapplethorpe: The Perfect Mo-
ment" at the Contemporary Arts
Center in Cincinnati, only a few
stretch the boundaries of personal
taste.

One of the main objectives of
any art form is to elicit response
from the public. And some people
in the Cincinnati community seem
to want to quell those responses.

If the Hamilton County moralists
are successful in removing any pho-
tographs from display, the exhibi-
tion will be tragically altered.

A black-and-white self-portrait of
Mapplethorpe greets viewers as
they enter the exhibit.

There also are several self-
portraits on display which show
Mapplethorpe in a variety of perso-
nas. The earliest shows him in
1974 at the peak of his health,
while the others, which depict him
up to 1988, document his physical
decay caused by acquired immune
deficiency syndrome.

The self-portraits capture many
elements of Mapplethorpe‘s person-
ality. One shows him wearing a
tuxedo while another series depicts
his outlook on gender roles.

To the left is a photo showing a
wry butch looking pompadoured
Mapplethorpe wearing a leather mo-
torcycle jacket; the one to the far
right portrays him as a woman,
complete with wig and make-up;
the photograph in the center shOws
him more androgynous and bare-
chcsted with a look in his eyes that
is a combination of amazement and
cockiness.

()ihcr portraits are of celebrities.
including Donald Sutherland, Andy

Kristin Cummings. a UK sophomore from Louisville, observes a series of Robert Mapplethorpe's self—portraits. Other portraits include provocative nudes of men and women

Warhol and William Burroughs.
Several photographs of singer Patti
Smith show her from 1972-1979.
The New York art secne is repre-
sented with a portrait of art dealer
Leo Castelli and another titled
“Downtown Art Dealers."

The portraits of Lisa Lyon, the
first female world body building
champion, are an important part of
the exhibit.

In several photos she is wearing a
bikini in various poses which ac-
centuate her muscle tone and her
symmetrical beauty. There also are
several nudes of Lyon. Including a
1983 portrait in which she is seated
in a chair with a large snake draped
around her like a shawl.

The portraits of Ken Moody, a
New York dancer, show him in var
ious athletic poses. The portraits
show the human form in a manner

PHOTO COURTESY CONTEWORY ARTS CENTER

similar to those the ancient Greeks
depicted in their art.

Some of the exhibit’s portraits
explicitly show sexual practices,
but they contain more substance
than mere shock value. While cer-
tain photographs depicting anal
stimulation and masturbation may
not suit the tastes of the general
public, they do require viewers to
address their own thoughts on such
tabooed SUhJCCIS.

Some people w ho are homo-
phobic in nature may be offended
by the works, but the majority of
people who view them react in a
mature manner. The same also ap-
plies to Mapplethorpe’s controver-
sial use of nude children in a couple
photos.

The works are not intended to
create a sexual desire tor the Lillie
dren, but they allow viewers to see

of development. Mapplethorpe also
depicts a nude elderly man in one
photograph to show the body in de—

nant aspects of the exhibit.
