f UK ’5 name on degree

meaningful for some

Editor's note: The following is the second story in a

four‘part series that takes a closer look at the post-

secondary education changes Gov. Paul Patton has
submitted to the Kmtuclfy General Assembly for
the May 12 special legislative session.

By Mat Herron

Features Editor

Mary lloskins and Roberta Hickman
are as divided on the community college
issue as UK President Charles \Vething—
ton and Gov. Paul Patton.

Hoskins, a single mother who gradu-
ates with an associate's degree in nursing
this May, said the school's tie to UK is a
lifeline. affording them amenities that suit
Hazard students who cannot go away to

school.

“The UK emblem lends prestige to the
degree," Hoskins said. “Nobody would
recognize Hazard Community College.
What is that?”

To Hickman, a communications major
atjefferson Community College and for-
mer president of its Student Government
Association, a degree is a degree is a
degree.

“That's crap," she said. “Students need
to take a step back and get more
informed.”

Though the self-proclaimed “educa-
tion governor" has altered his proposal,
which will dominate the May 12 special
session in Frankfort, he stands firm in his
position on the state's community col-

leges and technical schools: separate them
from UK.

Opponents argue that the split nega-
tively impacts enrolltnent. focuses too

New [IBViCB to BIIII false alarms

* UK police chief discusses last

semester’s arson, alarm

By Elizabeth Flynn
Contributing Writer

On the opposite end of cam—
pus, away from the recent arson
incident in Keeneland Hall,
silence has been a welcome sound
this semester.

False fire alarms and acts of
arson interrupted thedafly lives of
many students living in Kirwan
and Blanding towers as well as the
UK fire and police departments
during the fall semester.

No arrests were made from the
39 false alarms and six acts of
arson.

This semester no false alarms
or arson incidents have been
reported in Kirwan and Blanding
mwers, Ton Ralph of the Resi-
dence Life 0 cc said.

University fire marshal Garry
Beach said hard evidence is neces—
sary to prove someone is associat-
ed with arson.

, “To prove someone is respon-
sible o committing arson, you
must have visual evidence, not

'u w

hearsay,” Beach said.

Beach, UK Police Chief W. H.
McComas and the Office of Resi-
dence Life took the pranks seri-
ously and are prepared to change
the fire alarm system to lessen
future false alarms.

“New technology involvin fire
pull systems will hopefully efimi-
nate problems of attempted arson
and false alarms,” Beach said.

A pull techni ue being tested
for this fall is an :larm verification
detection device. The device noti-
fies resident advisers on, the first
floor within 60 seconds to deter-
mine on which floor the alarm is
activated.

The new system also deter‘
mines whether the alarm is false to
prevent unnecessa evacuations.

The purpose 0 new pull sys-
tems and smoke detectors are for
students' safety as well as alleviat-
ing evacuations and alerting the
fire department.

“Our goal is to make people
aware that we are taking these
matters seriously, not lightly,"

Ralph said.

Fortunately, these incidents
have not harmed anyone during
evacuation procedures.

But the inconvenience ofstop-
ping what you are doin to file
through the hall and own 22
flights of stairs becomes a nui-
sance for many.

which is classified as a misde-
meanor. Arson is a class A felony
punishable by significant fines and
a minimum of 10 years in prison.

“I believe one person was
responsible for committing these
acts,” McComas said.

“Usually when several people
are involved, a story will
leak out. I assume this
person is no longer here
due to no acts of arson."

“I realize it is an

A bipartisan rally will be held

debate over higher education in
Kentucky.

The rally. which will begin at
noon, is an opportunity for his
students to speak out and voice
their concerns about the higher
education reform plan. The
plan, developed by (iov. l’aul
Patton, is scheduled to go
before the general assembly on
May l2.

The rally, which
will take place at

is being organized
by SGA and the
UK chapters of
Young Republicans
and College
Democrats. .

The rally is
meant to bring
attention to UK
students, who noun
some feel have
been overlooked in
the debate thus far.
Todd P’Pool, a Ce;
UK law student
and College of
Law student senator, was one of
the chieforganizers ofthe rally.

P'l’ool said he thinks that a
response to the plan, either for
it or against it, is needed from
UK students.

“\Ve need to put aside our
differences; our common
ground is as students" P'Pool
said.

chairman of the Fayette County
Young Republicans, said he

To that effect, no prominent

the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile on
Oct. 26 at Woodbine.

“After the Jim Beam we were
pointing toward the Derby, but it
was still possible we weren't going
to come,” trainer John Tammaro
said. “If Acceptable had won the
Blue Grass, we might have gone to
the Tesio and then to the Illinois
Derby."

Acceptable finished second in
the Blue Grass on April 12 at
Keeneland, staying in the Derby
picture, but then on the morning
of April 19, he broke a bone in his

Concerto started his winning
streak in' the Kentucky Jockey
Club on Nov. 30 at Churchill
Downs. The only Derby horse to
have raced at Churchill Downs is
Celtic Warrior, winner of an
allowance race Nov. 1 and second,
in the Jockey Club.

“He hasn’t otten the attention
all along that e deserves," Tam-
maro said. “But in all fairneSs we
didn't take the traditional route
with him."

\Vhile Acceptable, trained by
Nick Zito, was sent to Florida for
the Fountain of Youth and the
Florida Derby, Concerto opened
his 3-year-old campaign by win-
ning the VVhirlaway at Aqueduct,
then went to Turfway Park for the
Battaglia and the Jim Beam.

“We weren't going to go head-
to-head with Acceptable," Tam—
maro said. “Ifyou're an owner you
don't want to run against your-
self."

Actually, Acceptable also is
owned by Robert Clay, who
bought a 35 percent interest from
Steinbrenner earlier this year.

Tammaro said the Boss of the
Yankees keeps informed about his
horses, but that is son Hank Stein-
brenner, who runs the breeding
and racing operation.

Concerto worked seven-eighths of

it, he was really relaxed."

Captain Bodgit went a halfmile

eighths in 1:01 4-5.

“It can't get much better than
this," trainer Gary Capuano said.
“\‘Ve’re just coasting now."

Silver Charm worked five--
eighths in 1:00 3-5, a move that
trainer Bob Baffert called “just
perfect. He looked like he was just

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Pacers president

Another possibility is former Boston Celtics star

 

Donnie W'alsh is assembling a list of possible coach-
ing candidates, although he won’t contact any of
them until he hears from Larry Brown.

Brown, with two years left on his contract with the
Pacers, is expected to decide this week whether he
will return. \Valsh has said he won’t hold Brown to
his contract if he wants to leave.

“I’ve told Larry we can’t wait forever, because we
have to get another coach," Walsh said.

“I'm trying to accommodate him. I'm not trying to
do anything that will hurt him. we've never asked
Larry to leave; he has to make that decision.”

If he goes, one possible replacement is former
Phoenix Suns coach Paul West hal, who said Mon—
day night he would be interestedPin coaching the Pac-
ers.

“All I can say is, I want to get back into coaching
in 3 00d situation, and I think the Pacers situation is
goo ," he said. “Anything other than that would be
premature."

VVestphal, who played 12 seasons in the NBA, was

Larry Bird, who met with \Valsh over the weekend.

“Nothing was finalized." \Valsh said. “It was a
meeting to gauge interest. \Ve talked about aspects of
coaching and ofcoaching the Pacers, the same as you
would with anybody.

“But ifthe coaching job is open, Larry Bird is defi-
nitely a guy I’m going to talk to —- unless he says he
doesn't want to do it.”

Bird also could be a candidate for a front office
position at Boston, although the Celtics have not dis-
closed their plans for ALL. Carr, who holds the posi-
tions of coach and director ofbasketball operations.

“It's a big decision for him, so I don’t know what
he’s going to do, but I do know this: He'll be a great
coach," \Valsh said.

“I think he’s prepared himself way beyond what
anybody realizes ...”

Bird was a lZ—time NBA All-Star and three-time
league most valuable player during his 13 seasons
with the Celtics. But he has never held a coaching
position at any level.

Band punks out indie Ilil

By Brian R. Gilbert

Contributing Critic

Blasting out of Richmond, Va,
comes this vigorous trio of no-
nonsense, post-punk,
anti-mainstream rock
‘n' rollers. On its third
release from Quarter-
stick/l‘ouch and Go
Records, Ke )one
demonstrates that loud,
heavy and mean are
words that need to be
put back into the defini-

 

MUSIOreview

direct and honest feeling of
volatility and animation. Guitarist
and sometimes singer, Tim Har-
riss, brings influences of roots reg-
ae and African music to the
Fiepone table, and drummer,
Edward jefferson
Trask, has past expe-
rience with Dischord

 

 

 

 

 

 

Records’ Holy
Rollers.

Combine all three
members and their

influences and you
have one scary arse»

tion of rock. Defying V nal. Kepone is noise
punk rock's radio— ***I/2 squared and indie-
frieiidly movement of (ourofjrz'e) rock to the 10th
the present, Kepone ‘Keponc’ power. From the
offers 14 diverse tracks Kepone opening punk-

of pure disorder and
1ngenu1ty that would
make any blue-collar
rocker proud.

ln breaking down the elements
of this assembly, it is easily noticed
that lead vocalist and bassist

[Michael Bishop heads this unit
with uncontrollable energy. This
is a skill he surely must have dcv el-
oped and perfected over the years
with his former band, Gwar. Bish-
op sounds nothing like his erst—
while mates but presents the sime

 

(Quarterxrirl')

inspired track, “Bring
It Down," to_ the clos—
ing instrumental rock
epic, “Dead Pop
Ideal," this band grabs you by the
throat and will not let go.

The song “I :\111 An Alien" best
defines this experience. With punk
guitar riffs, drum and c 'rnbal
smashes at liirhtning speeds arid
Bishop wailing incessantly, this
son pulls you into 1 frenzy that
could only be remedied by a con-
cert circle pit. The combination of

speed and emotion forms a con-
vincing ar ument that Bishop
quite possi ly is alien to this
world. Other songs Worthy of note
include the noise- filled “joe,” the
slow harmonic, almost reggae tune

“Leave Your Bones’ and the
crushing‘ ‘Jimmy Spit."

One aspect of this album that
makes it so interesting is the
tremendous diversity of music
represented in each song. At times
the album is punk, at times more
like noise rock, and then it even
has some slower less devastating
instrumentals. The variety defi-
nitely adds to the album's success.
In any case, Kepone keeps you
guesstng as to what face of the
band may appear next

Heralded by such impressive
acts as Helmet and The Jesus
Lizard, Kepone has also enjoyed
immense critical success with its
past two releases Skin and Ugly
Dance. Expect the trend to con—
tinue with this third album. The
band delivers an obscene amount
of intensity and emotion in 45
minutes of enuine rock ‘n' roll.

Also wiiFely known for its out-
rageous performances, you can
catch Kepone at Butchertown Pub
in Louisville tonight.

‘Scream' Ill close illl' contort

Even though Streamer; was a
minor money-making film for
Sony Pictures Entertainment
while in theaters, the film promis-
es to rake in large sums of cash
thanks to .Vliramax.

After much debate over Mira—
max's decision to use the title

Sony won a judgment Friday from
an MPAA arbitration that orders
Miramax to stop using the title
immediately —— or face a heavy fine.

As of5 p.m. last Friday, Mira—
max became obligated to pay Sony
:1 fine of$1,500 per day per screen.
Stream was on 1,216 screens, so
that totals more than $1.8 million
per day; Stream grossed $1.4 mil-
lion this past weekend.

And since Screamer: grossed
less than $6 million in its 1996
release by the Sony-owned Tri-
umph, Stream fines would exceed
the film’s gross in about four days.
Miramax plans to file for a court
injunction.
