Residents peeved by college-age neighbors

Parking, parties, drunkenness
top long list of complaints

 

By Don Puckett
Senior Staff Writer

 

Weldon Hunt thinks UK students
are invading his privacy.

“it's very frustrating when you
live here, pay taxes and you have a
group of young people who seem to
not understand that you have rights
as well as they have rights," he
said. “We feel our rights are being
violated."

Hunt, who has lived on Universi-
ty Avenue for 26 years. is upset
about his inconsiderate student
neighbors who hold parties and

take all the parking on his street.

Although there have always been
conflicts between off-campus stu-
dents and their non-student neigh-
bors. 3rd District Councilwoman
Kathy Pratt said tensions recently
have flared.

“At a meeting that I attended last
week, residents were very angry
about the parking situation and the
way that students are conducting
themselves at parties," Pratt said.

Pratt also said many residents de-
scribed incidents of public intoxica-
tion, disorderly conduct and exces-
sive noise.

“The thing that concerns me most
is when they abuse the rights of oth-
er people by trespassing on proper-
ty with cars, damaging lawns and
flowers." said Dennis Goodman,
who lives on Forest Park.

“I'm very pro-young people. but
the few that are very abusive create
quite a harmful image for all the
rest." he said.

Residents also have complained
about students parking illegally on
neighborhood streets.

Hunt said he sees ears blocking
driveways or parked in no-parking
zones almost daily.

Pratt said current city ordinances
are sufficient to solve the problems
but are not being properly enforced.

Skeet and Trap Club
for all straight-shooters

 

By Alan Aja
Contributing Writer

 

Of the hundreds of clubs and or-
ganizations UK has to offer. some
sarcastic students probably would
guess that there is a skeet and trap
shooting club in there somewhere.

They would be right.

Late last spring. Fric Swift. a ag-
ricultural economics junior. decided
to register into the Student Organi-
zations Assembly a club that has no
reported history of ever existing at
UK.

Through the help of faculty ad-
viser Harry Mason and the SOA.
the club quickly was formed and
named the “Skeet and Trap Club.“

Skeet and trap are two similar
sports. They both involve firing
shotguns at moving targets. Swift.
who is president of the club. said
quickness and good vision make a
person a good skeet and trap shoot-
er.

This school year. the skeet and
trap club still is alive and well. giv-
ing students not only a chance to
practice their shooting skills. but
also the opportunity to compete.

“There will be many competi-
tions we can go to. but we‘d really
like to attend one specific large

competition which will include
clubs from (Indiana University).
Purdue. Iowa and other large uni-
versities," Swift said.

Swiftalsosaidothergoalsforthe
year include attending smaller com—
petitions and turning in respectable
showings.

“Our strong point will definitely
have to be Trap shooting." Swift
said. Of the 15 members in the
club. most are trap shooters and
have experience that will benefit
the club in upcoming competitions.

Any team can bring from 10 to
15 competitors to each competition.
Usually only the top five skeet
shooters and top three in trap com-
petitors move on to regional and na-
tional events. he said.

UK's Skeet and Trap Club is
open to all students who want to
compete or practice their shooting
skills. The next meeting is sched-
uled for Oct 4 in 308 Kirwan-
Blanding Complex Commons.

  

 

Balancing
school and
family life
no easy task

 

By Melissa Rosenthal
Staff Writer

It's not very easy to raise a
family while holding down a
job and attending school.

Just ask Agnes Palmgreen.
46, who serves in all three
roles as an MBA student.
College of Pharmacy employ-
ee and mother of four.

Palmgreen is one of the
8.246 students older than 25
who attend UK.

As of last fall. 34 percent
of the campus population was
made up of non-traditional
students like Palmgreen.

She decided to return to
school in 1991 because she
knew that "to advance in my
job 1 needed to upgrade my
education."

Palmgreen said that after
graduating from high school.
attending college and receiv-
ing a degree in economics.
she did what most of her gen-
eration did: “1 got married
right out of college. sympa-
thized with the war and be-
gan to raise my family.“

Although the decision to
come back to school was
easy. “there are times when 1
ask myself why I am always
pushing so hard." she said

Returning to school has
given Palmgreen more confi-
dence. a better perspective on
life.

“it has kept me under 50."
she said.

“it is much easier for me to
understmd my son. who is
also in college now."

Palmgreen deems college
“a grad eeeqre" because “it

Place that received a noise com-
plaint from neighbors.

She said police responded to the
complaint but did little to control
the wise.

“They were really nice about it."
she said.

“They came and told who we
wanted to leave to leave and then
they left and said, ‘Go ahead and
party all night.‘ "

Assistant Police Chief Larry Ball
said the Lexington Police Depart-
ment has a “zero-tolerance" policy
for handling complaints about stu-
dent parties.

“Once we receive a complaint,
we send an officer out to see if
there is a problem," he said.

“If there is too much noise. we
shut it down.

“The workload for us has gotten

greater. We just don't have the abil-
ity to go back two or three times (to
break up a party)."

But many neighbors say a single
visit by police is not enough to end
a noisy student party.

“I‘ve filed as many as eight com-
plaints in a single night. but rarely
do the police make more than a sin-
gle visit." said Bob Bunting Sr..
who lives on Westwood Drive.

“The students just keep making
noise. and we keep getting fed up."

Bunting said without stricter po-
lice enforcement. there is little the
city can do to quiet off-campus par-
ties.

So. after 45 years on Westwood
Drive. he is considering moving.

“But I hate to be pushed out of
the neighborhood by a bunch of
kids.“ he said.

Ball also said polite are adequate-
ly patrolling the neighborhoods
around campus to find cars that are
illegally parked.

“We've towed numerous cars and
issued hundreds of citations in the
campus area." he said.

“The problem gets worse every
year. As parking spaces become
more limited. it pushes cars out into
the streets."

To solve the parking problem.
Pratt said she would like to expand
the city‘s residential permit pro-
gram.

Parking permits currently are dis-
tributed to residents who live in
Pralltown or on some potions of
South Mill and South Upper streets.

Without a permit. a war parked on
the street may be ticketed or towed.

Many students agree speech
by Jackson could open eyes

 

By Erica Patterson
Assistant News Editor

 

Jesse Jackson. who will speak at
UK Wednesday night. may be one
of the most well-respected and
prominent figures in the world.

President of the National Rain-
bow Coalition and a twotime can-
didate for US. president. Jackson
has been active in various civil
rights and peace movements. as
well as battles for gender equality
and economic and social justice.

Psychology senior Aaron Purdie
says he is looking forward to seeing
Jackson and hearing more about his
views.

“l‘m for him coming to campus.“
Ptu'die said. “The only thing that
puzzles are is what he has done for
black people. it‘s never publi—
cited“

Purdie said that even though he
has “a sornewtnt negative image"
ofJacksm.hethinkshisarrivalon
cmrpus would influence my.

“lthinkitwouldbeagoodexpe-
Hence for people to be: his speech
bee-rue For sure he’ll have soure-
thing positive to say.” [indie sdd.

 

Brian Toy. a
biology junior.
said Jackson’s
speech prob-
ably will raise
awareness for
political issues
the Washing-
ton. DC. state-
hood senator
might bring up.

“I mink Ms JACKSON
got some very interesting views."
said Toy. who does not plan to at-
tend the speech because he does not
leave time.

Diane Betker. a library sciences
graduate student . said that because
she has a full class load and works
at three jobs. she also is too busy to
attend the lecture.

“l have other things to worry
about." she said.

Betker said other students‘ reac-
tions probably will depend on the
content of the lecture.

“I'm sure he'll have something
interesting to say.” she add.

Kimberly Coleman. II English
senior. said she bought tickets
weeks ago and is aimed to see
wha Jackson will discuss.

 

 

“Based on what he‘s done. I have
a positive image" of Jackson. she
said. “He‘s really motivational."

Coleman said that even though
she is unsure where Jackson stands
on several issues. she expects “he‘ll
be well-received“ by the 11K com-
munity.

Derome Smith. 3 English and
psychology junior. said he expects a
large turnout.

“l anticipate a large crowd with
much cultural diversity. which
should benefit all who attend." he
said. "1 think (Jackson) is a promi-
nent black figure and role model in
society.

“He gives enlightenment on a va-
riety of subjects including race rela-
tions."

Jackson contributed to negotia-
tions in the Middle East during the
Persian Gulf Wu. and he takes a
strong stand against apartheid in
South Africa. He also advoatee na-
tional health cue. encourages a III
on drugs and supports voter regis~
tration.

Thirty years and two months lat-

fought to be fully recognized. And
as in the early '60s. now in the ear-

who helped spread the original
message are back on the trail to
once again spread the civil rights
message and bolster the moral of
the movements' workers.

Tonight at 7. The original Free-

1960 by the Student Non-Violent

Freedom Singers became the best

will perform freedom songs from
the ‘605 and interpretive commen-
taries of the music and its history
as a tool for social change.

King's recognition of the old

singing groups like The Freedom

Collegiate quarterbacks have
some of the worst job security
around.

Just ask Florida‘s Terry Dean,
who had his starting spot snatched
away by freshman Danny Wuerffel;
or Penn State's John Sacca, who
was benched irt favor of backup
Carey Collins.

The list goes on and on.

But. still there are some single-
callers who are staples within their
universities' football programs, like
Heisman trophy candidates Charlie
Ward of Florida State and Marvin
Graves of Syracuse.

At UK, however. the quarterback
position is a unique blend of both
scenarios.

Junior PtX)kiC Jones has been the
Wildcat starter since midway
through his freshman campaign,

ing to a painful ankle sprain that
forced him to sit out his team's 21-

Jones’ absence left a gaping hole
in an already struggling Wildcat 0f-

Men’s soccer team
thwarts Colonels

 

By Jason Alexander
Contributing Writer

 

The UK men‘s soccer team de~
feared Robert Morris by a score of
1-0 Saturday aftemoon at Cage
I‘IICId.

The game. as revealed by the fi-
nal tally. was a classic defensive
battle between the two teams.

Freshman suiker Toby McComas
scored the only goal of the game
during the fourth minute of play.

With the (‘ats striking so early in
the game. UK seemed poised for an
offensive explosion. But the Wild-
cat offense never clicked, as UK
had numerous blown opportunities
to score.

The game was far from an offen-
sive showcase. as play became
more aggressive than normal and
three (‘olonials went down because
of injuries during the course of the
game.

At one point during the first half,
Robert Mom's coach John Kowalski
inserted freshman forward Nick
Williams to play UK junior mid-
fielder Tom Neff and sophomore
stopper Pat (lerak tighter than be-
fore.

“They were playing really ag-
gressive out there," (ietak said.

Junior goalkeeper Matt Stanley
recorded the shutout, making five
saves for the Wildcats. Goalkeeping
has been one of UK's strong suits
lately. giving up only three goals in
four games.

The Wildcat defense was impres-
sive, controlling the tempo of the
game. UK coach Sam Wooten has

What he wants to see is more pro-
duction at the other end of the field.

“We have a lot to work on such
as finishing at the goal," Wooten
said, “but this game got out of con-
trol."

Up next for the Cats is a home
game against Cincinnati Wednes—
day, which Wooten said “will be an
aggressive game similar to this
one."

If UK‘s defense plays like it did
Sunday, another low-scoring. de-
fensive battle can be expected.

Curry maintains Pookie is their
man.

“Pookie is the starting quarter-
back, and every player on our team
is evaluated everyday at practice
and in the game," he said.

“To isolate one because he‘s the
one who happens to take the snaps
from the center is unfair, so we
don't do that. Nobody is ever in
more danger of losing their job than
anyone else."

Still, it's obvious O'Ferrall's
stock has skyrocketed, and there's
no doubt he could sneak in some
more passes and handoffs this year.

After garnering national notoriety
for his Thursday performance and
even taking time for a post-game in-
terview with ESPN sideline analyst
Jerry Punch, the sophomore looks
primed for great things in the fu-

 

  

ture. So, will he take over?

Despite speculations, Curry
quells talk of a change at the quar-
terback position.

“The definition of a quarterback
controversy is when it affects the
team,” he said. “So, there will be no
quarterback controversy on this

If Jones is ineffective in Satur-
day's matchup with Ole Miss, it's
likely O'Ferrall will take his place
on the field.

“We are going to do what it takes
to win the game." Curry said.
“We‘ll put whoever we think can
help us win the game in the game at
what ever position they play."

Whether Jones joins the misery
of Dean and Sacca or the ranks of
Ward and Graves is still up in the
air, but for today, he will continue
leading the Wildcat offense.

‘WTVQPbll inoccurate;

station should let ratings.
gauge public opinion

 

EDITORIAL

 

The media takes a lot of heat for controversial decisions. It's part

of the territory.

But executives at WTVQ-TV (Channel 36) apparently have de-
cided they‘re not willing to take the consequences for their deci-
srons. so they set up a 1-900 number to give viewers the choice on
whether to air the controversial police drama. “NYPD Blue."

It certainly is considerate of them to give us a “choice," but per-
haps they should stop and realize that we already have one. It’s

called a power button.

If people find the show offensive. they don‘t have to watch it. If

enough people don't watch it. the network won't be able to sell
commercials (as they did by the boatload in the storm of controver-
sy surrounding the show). No advertising. and the show gets can-
celled faster than one of the show’s cops can say $#%*.

In fact. WTVQ’s benevolent offer of letting the voice of the peo-
ple decide distorts the real voice of the people.

In a situation like this. it has been shown that only those who
strongly oppose an issue will make the effort — and in this case.

pay the fee — to voice an opinion.

According to recent reports. many people didn’t even wait to see
the show before making the call to ditch it. The station received
calls hours before the show first aired.

A few years ago. protestors and boycotts propelled the movie
“The Last Temptation of Christ" to box-office success. which it
probably would not have received had it not been for the hype sur-

rounding it.

Likewise. “NYPD Blue" was one of the top-rated shows last
week despite the fact that many markets. including Dallas, Texas,

did not carry it.

There's something to be said for hype. The show's producers
could not have paid for better advertising.

UK football win
given no attention
in Kernel sports

To the editor:

I find it completely unaccepta-
ble that the Kentucky Kernel
would devote so much space for
Kentucky's losses against Florida
and Indiana. but when they beat a
nearly AP—ranked Southern Con-
ference team on the road. that
they give it only one article. only
three inches long and maybe eight
inches wide.

What in the hell is wrong with
this picture? The football team de-
serves more notice than this.

You have a responsibility to re-
port things that the University stu-
dents. the major readers of this
publication. want to hear about

You didn't even put it on the
front page as a small headline.

Most students could care less
about what our inadequate presi-
dent is doing. They want to read
about our school‘s triumph in
Carolina

The Kentucky Kernel should
apologize to the students and read-
ers of their paper and promise to
be more concerned with the good
things in life than bureaucratic
crap they have been printing.

I bet you won't print this be-
cause you wouldn't want to take
any criticism against yourselves.
