UNITED NATIONS — Iraq de-
cried allied air strikes on its anti-
aircraft missiles yesterday, but im-
mediately offered to stop its sal-
vage forays into Kuwait and to let
U.N. weapons inspectors use their
own aircraft.

It had balked on these two points
earlier despite UN. and allied
warnings.

Iraqi U.N. Ambassador Nizar
Hamdoon said yesterday it was
“really sad that people are resorting
to military action rather than trying
to resolve issues peacefully. which
Iraq has indicated its willingness to
do."

The United States. Britain and
France launched the night raid to
destroy anti-aircraft missile batter-
ies in the southern “no-fly zone" af-
ter repeatedly warning Iraq the mis-
siles threatened allied air pauols.

Hamdoon said he had no casualty
count.

“I think all Iraqis are angry," he
said.

He said his government has al-
ways complied with terms of the
UN. cease-fire that ended the 1991
Persian Gulf War. Iraq considers
the attack to be “very uncivilized,"
he said.

Hamdoon met at his New York
residence later with US. British
and French representatives, who
sought clarification of his offer to

Pikes get probation
for December thefts

 

By Lance Williams
Staff Writer

 

The Dean of Students office this
week placed Pi Kappa Alpha social
fraternity on probation for one year
and ordered fraternity members to
serve 2,000 hours of community
service after stolen sports memora-
bilia was found in the Pike house in
December.

The fraternity also is barred from
holding social events in its house
while under probation. and it may
not have pledge classes for the next
two semesters, according to a letter
from Associate Dean of Students
Victor Hazard to Pike president
lance Dowdy that was released
yesterday.

The sanctions imposed on the
100-member fraternity after an in-
vestigation by Hazard's office that
linked members of the fraternity to
break-ins on the campuses of the
University of North Carolina-
Chapel Hill and Duke University
over the weekend of Dec. 5 and 6.
Among the items stolen was Chris-

Abduction

 

By Dale Greer
Executive Editor

 

UK police have doubled morning
patrols and are urging students to
exercise caution after a series of ab-
ductions and attempted abductions
appears to be spreading to the cam-
pus area.

Six people have been abducted in
Lexington since October. and six
others have been the targets of at-
tempted abductions, UK Police
Chief W.H. McComas said yester-
day.

Most of the early crimes were
committed in the Cardinal Valley
area off Versailles Road or near
downtown, including the sexual

jersey.

Hazard stated in the letter that be-
cause of the thefts, he was con-
cerned that the fraternity “may, in-
deed, be viewed as being out of
control."

The fraternity already had been
placed on probation in the fall se-
mester for an undisclosed violation,
and Dean of Students David Stock-
harn said that factor, among other
things, was key in this week’s deci-
siun.

The fraternity has not yet had a
meeting to discuss the decision, but
Dowdy said he believed the investi-
gation was thorough and the organi-
zation was treated fairly.

“We questioned from the start.
and we still do, the actuality of (the
Dean‘s office) saying that it was an
organization‘s responsibility versus
an individual's responsibility,"
Dowdy said.

“As far as what's happened, the
fact that they did deem it as a frater-
nity function, we do feel like we
have gotten (fair treatment) from

abide by conditions imposed by the
Security Council. No word emerged
on the outcome.

Venezuelan Ambassador Diego
Arria said no U.N. meetings were
scheduled.

“It‘s a strong warning, no?" he
added, smiling.

The attack followed repeated Se-
curity Council warnings that Iraq
stop violating cease-fire terms or
face “serious consequences." Bagh-
dad said it was cooperating with the
council and in a letter delivered
Tuesday offered “dialogue with the
council and with all who so desire"
to solve problems.

After the raid, Hamdoon offered
to allow U.N. weapons inspectors to
resume flying into Iraq on their own

 

aircraft. Baghdad barred such
flights last week, insisting that the
inspectors use Iraqi aircraft instead.

The Security Council rejected the
Iraqi position as an unacceptable
breach of the cease-fire, which
gives the inspectors free rein to
search for weapons of mass destruc~
tion and destroy them.

Hamdoon also offered to stop Ira-
qi swoops to retrieve weapons and
equipment from Camp Khor, a for-
mer Iraqi navy base now in Kuwait
under a redrawn border.

Iraqi forces yesterday raided the
base for the fourth straight day.
They earlier carted off Silkworm
anti-ship missiles and other military
equipment — in violation of cease-
fire mics — in addition to civilian
supplies.

ed in broad daylight Jan. 3 while
walking on Main Street.

The three most recent attempts,
however. “got real close to cam-
pus," McComas said. Two occured
in Chevy Chase, and the third at the
intersection of High and Rose
streets.

McComas said almost all of the
crimes have taken place early in the
morning, and, with one exception.
all of the victims have been young,
white women.

The methods of the crimes also
are similar, but several perpetrators
— both black and white —- appear
to be involved. he said.

“You have a copy cat-type situa-

said. “Then in other cases, they are
just attempting to get in the car —
banging on the car."

McComas described the abduc-
tions and attempts as “real unusual"
and said neither he nor Lexington
police officials have a rationale for
why the crimes developed so sud-
denly.

In response. however, the UK po-
lice department has doubled the
number of officers it has on the
street from 5 am. to 9 am, includ-
ing officers on bicycles.

He also suggested that students

UK, Edney
still at odds
over library

By Tyrone Beason
News Editor

 

 

Nothing has changed.

Clifton Avenue resident James
Edney still insists he will not sell
his home to the University for its
new library project, and UK admin-
istrators continue to say negotia-
tions with Edney are running
smoothly.

Edney spoke briefly last week
about his negotiations. or the lack
thereof. with UK officials.

Standing behind a screened door.
the 88-year-old Edney complained
of a prolonged battle with shingles.
Visibly weakened by the illness, he
only said that nothing has changed
since his promise in November not
to sell and that no one from UK has
contacted him since then.

“Everything is just the same as it
was months ago. We‘re not selling
—- period.' he said.

However. Vice President for Ad-
ministration Donald Clapp said Fri-
day that UK representatives have
been meeting with Edney on a con-
tinuous basis. He said they defmite-
ly have met with Edney since Nov.
6. the day administrators announced
the planned library will be located
on a 30-acre site bordered by Rose
Street and Hilltop, Columbia and
Woodland avenues.

Clapp is optimistic that Edney
will cooperate with the University
in the library project.

“He‘s always indicated that he
would sell. I‘m confident that we‘ll
work out something." Clapp said.

The library itself will be situated
behind a circular grassy area on
Clifton Avenue.

Edney. who lives at 419 Clifton
Ave, owns the last property UK
must acquire to build the library on
this site.

Two days after the University's
announcement in November. Edney
vowed not to sell his home. where
he as resided since 1964.

UK officials were not so con—
vinced. Clapp then said Edney had
in no way indicated that he wasn't
going to sell.

Clapp would not discuss the pos-
sibility of using eminent domain —
a legal maneuver —- to force him
off the property. saying the situa-
tion will not reach that point.

cy, such as UK, can go to court and
present reasons why acquiring cer-
tain propeny is necessary. If enti-
nent domain is granted, the court
can put a price on the property and
allow the agency to pay it.

Regardless of negotiations, Vir-
ginia Smith. director of the Ken-
tucky Humanities Council, said the
non-profit organization stands to
lose a precious neighbor.

He also offered these tips:

-Be aware of your surroundings
and don’t take shortcuts through un-
familiar territory.

-If you feel you‘re being fol-
lowed, change your pace or walk in
a different direction. If the stalker

construction of the libmy begins in

“He's the best neighbor you
could ask for." Smith said.

She recalled several occasions
when Edney brought KHC employ-
ees fresh vegetables and honey. In
addition. “at night, we leave the
lights on, and he watches the
place."

“I wish we could always have
him for a neighbor," Smith said.
“But I appreciate how important a
library can be. I would be very
hard-pressed to argue against a new
library."

The $58 million library currently
is in the planning and design stag-
es.

-Reptxt any suspicious person or
activity to UK Police at 257-1616.

If you need to walk on campus at
night but don't have someone to ac-
company you, call the Student Es-
cort Service at 257-5518 to arrange
for an escort. The service operates
at night Sunday through Thursday.

The CATS bus also will shuttle
students around campus from 6
pm. to midnight, Sunday through
Thursday. The CATS number is
221-RIDE.

After midnight, UK police will
transport students and provide es-
corts to automobiles.

Fraternity

Continued from Page 1

Dean Stockham and Dean Hazzard.

“They have been very thorough
and they’ve come up with the best
decision they could. I think they
felt like they had to do something
with (the fraternity)."

The Dean of Students office and
officials at both North Carolina
schools have said the fraternity
must make full restitution and pay
for any damages that occurred dur-
ing the theft.

In addition, the fraternity must
perform 2,000 hours of community
service. Stockham said the agencies
the fraternity helps will certify the
number of hours it serves.

“We would like to think that this
's a constructive way to deal with
the problem," Stockham said of the
ommunity service requirement

The probationary period went
'!lt0 effect Ian. 11 and will continue
for a full calendar year. During that
.ime, no social activities can occur
'-:1 the house, the fraternity cannot
so involved in intramural activities,
md no pledge classes will be al-
‘owed for the spring and fall 1993
semesters.

At the end of this semester, how-
ever, the group may petition the
Dean of Students Office for the re-
instatement of pledging and intra-
mural sports privileges. Before

there will be any discussion con-
cerning reinstatement of these privi-
leges, the chapter must have a com-
bined grade-point average of 2.78
and a clean record during the proba-
tionary period.

The GPA stipulation was includ-
ed to reinforce the University as pri-
marily an academic institution,
Stockham said.

“Typically, this is one of the stat-
ed goals of greet: organizations, to
try and foster scholarship." he said.

The letter warned Dowdy that
“anything less than total compliance
will result in cancellation of (the
fratemity‘s) registration as a student
organization."

Stockham said that if more prob-
lems occur, there will not be an im-
mediate cancellation of the fratemi-
ty, but that “certainly, it would be
looked at as a very serious offense."

He said that if the fraternity pass-
es its probationary period and meets
all of the imposed requirements, it
“would have to show exemplary be-
havior practices."

The members of this year's
pledge class who were involved in
the theft have been suspended by
the fraternity until an internal inves-
tigation determines what the best
action would be, Dowdy said.

Despite the problems, Dowdy
said the incoming president Bryan
Clark is looking forward to taking
on the challenge of helping put the
Pikes back on the right track.

Continued from Page 1

Students may pick up the appli-
cations in 127 Funkhouser Build-
ing, or they may call the Student Fi-
nancial Aid office at 257-3172 for
assistance.

After filling out the application
and mailing it for processing, the
applicant may receive forms per-
taining to Pell Grants or student aid
reports. Halsey said these docu-
ments must be submitted to the Fi-
mncial Aid Office.

At UK, the Student Financial Aid
office administers a group of schol-
arships for which students must
demonstrate high academic ability
and financial need.

But this is just one group of
scholarships the office awards, Hal-
sey said.

Students also should contact their
individual colleges about other
scholarships and eligibility criteria,
Halsey said.

“They have their own applica-
tions, so it‘s important that the stu-
dent contact that college. We also
encourage students to check with
their churches, civic organizations
and high schools."

Halsey said money is available
through financial aid for students
who need it, despite recent budget
cutbacks.

“Regardless of all the negative
things people hear about available
funds, money is available for eligi-
ble students.

“There is a new unsubsidized
loan program in effect. That means
that the loan is available for most
students regardless of need, but the
federal govemrnent does not subsi-
dize the interest payments as they
do in the subsidized Stafford loans.

“With other need-based aid, the
federal government pays the inter-
est for you until you get out of
school. With non-subsidized aid. no
one's paying interest for you. It ac-
crues — they just add it on to the
loan," Halsey said.

Women beat Morehead;

  
  

Eberhart, Reed flourish

 

By Lance Wllllams
Staff Writer

 

Lady Kat coach Sharon Fanning
was brief in describing last night’s
victory over Morehead State: “A
‘W.’ Ugly. Better in the second
half. That‘s it."

Short and sweet, and all true.

UK players and coaches were the
first to admit that the 66-38 win
was not the most beautiful display
of basketball.

“Even though they only scored
19 points (in the fast half), we wer-
en‘t in our mode of deflection,"
Fanning said.

The No. 24 Lady Kats had trou-
ble shaking off the 1-7 Lady Eagles
for much of the first half last night

Kats celebrity guest coach Ah-
mad Rashad said the lackluster first
half was partly because the match-
up was a “coach‘s nightmare.“
Morehead's poor record made it
difficult to motivate UK’s players,
he said.

“If you‘re a coach, how do you
try to tell (your) team that the (oth-
er) team is better than that when
they are looking at 1-7. So it’s very
hard, and you hope they just go out
and execute," Rashad said.

UK freshman guard Christina
Jansen agreed.

“It always tough to get up for a
team that you see their record and
everything, and because you have a
really high guest coach. and every-
body is excited about that." she
said. “It’s hard, but if you're are go-
ing to be a good team, you're going

that"

Morehead held a 4-2 lead early
in the first half but lost the lead
when Stacey Reed drilled a three
pointer. That was the last time the
lady Eagles would see the lead,
but they still were able to give the
Lady Kats trouble.

The Morehead team played in-
spired basketball for most of the
first half. clawing its way back into
the game each time the Lady Kats
tried to run away with it

With 16:30 left, Mia Daniel hit a
three pointer to give UK an 8-4
lead. On the next possession,
Morehead guard Stacey Spake was
fouled on a three-point try and hit
all three free throws.

To illustrate Morehead's staying
power again, Jocelyn Mills hit a
shot to put UK up by 11 points and
a deceptively comfortable lead.
Three minutes later, Forward Sondi
Eden hit a bucket that cut the UK
lead to 5 at 24-19. Jennifer Gray hit
a shot just before halftime to give
UKa26-19leadatthe half.

Morehead stayed close by out-
rebounding UK 16.13 and going 5-
5 from the free-throw line in the
first half.

“In the first half. we didn’t run
offense -— period," Fanning said.

UK shot 41.3 percent in the first
half but only attempted 29 shots.

In the second half, however, the
floodgates opened and the Lady
Kats' shots began to fall. UK hit 6-
of-13 from threewpoint range and
Morehead found itself drowning in
a sea of threes.

With 14:15 left in the game, UK
began to pull away. Stacey Reed
hit a three pointer. Only seconds
later, Tedra Eberhart got the ball
back on a turnover and made a
strong drive for the hoop. Her bas-
ket and a foul shot pulled the UK
lead to 16 points. Five minutes lat-
er, UK held a 26-point lead at 50—
24.

Morehead State tried to call
timeouts and slow down the tempo,
but the Lady Eagles could not stop
the Lady Kats attack. Morehead
had run out of the steam that
helped frustrate the Lady Kats in
the first half.

From that point, the Kats were
able to coast to an easy victory.

UK Gym Cats open
season in Minnesota

By Mark Sonka
Senior Staff Writer

 

As the UK Gym Cats prepare for
their season opener Friday against
Minnesota in Minneapolis, UK
gymnastics coach and perpetual op-
timist Leah Little remains excited.
Again. As usual.

Her callow Cats of a year ago
have grown into an experienced.
hungry pack, eager to devour its
mpable Southeastern Conference
competition on the floor, bars,
beam and vault in 1993 — an ad-
mirable, lofty goal. Lofty because
the SEC currently houses six teams
in the Top 20, four in the top five.

There is proof, though, that war-
rants such cnthusiasm. A talented
junior class five strong. A solid
performance already before a large
crowd. And a pair of sizzling fresh-
men often mentioned in the same
sentence with “NCAA Nationals,"
as in “they could lead us to Nation-
als." No joke.

“We‘ve always wanted to get to
the national championship, but a
lot of that (in the past) was wishing
and hoping," Little said. “I really
think this team has the ability to do
it."

UK may know as early as mid-
February, less titan midway into
the season. where it stands among
the conference fracas and the na-
tional scene, which could be con-
sidered almost anonymous in this
sport. A trip to Tuscaloosa to face
1991 national champion Alabama
is scheduled for Jan. 30.

This is followed a week later by
a home meet in Memorial Coli-
seum against defending national
nmner-up Georgia. Auburn, third
in both the SEC and the NCAA
Central Regional in '92, rounds out
the mid-winter trifecta, or head-
ache, if you‘re Coach Little.

Solace. however, comes in the
shape and form of freshmen phen-
oms Jenny Hansen and Jennifer
Van Outer.

 

“The older guys will be the
backbone as far as leadership and
experience," Little said. “but the
two freshmen are going to be the
backbone in the sense that they
have the skills to take us to the
next level."

With Hansen and Van Outer
slated at the No. 1 and No. 2 slots
in each event, Little, for the first
time in recent memory, owns a
talented pool of tumblers from
which to draw for positions 3, 4,
5 and 6 in the lineup — places
where “we kind of dramatically
fell off“ last year. Little said.

Players competing for top posi-
lions:

'Suzanne Gutierrez, junior. the
school record holder on beam
(9.80) and an alloarounder in ’92.

-Gina Hatterick, junior, on
vault, beam and floor.

oTara Kahle, junior, another
all-arounder last year.

~Michelle Ogden, junior, on
bars, beam and floor.

-Tamae Freeman, sophomore,
a '92 all-arounder.

'Dee Ann McNeil, sophomore.
the school record holder on bars
(9.75) and a '92 all-arounder.

~Sharon Smith. senior, on
vault, bars and floor.

(Tame Culp, junior, on vault,
bars and beam.

Already the squad is in great
shape, Little said. which she at-
tributes to a killer off-season
weight training and conditioning
program that began last year.

“We have the best-looking
team. physically. that I think
we've ever had," she said.
“lhcy‘re more cut up, and
they're leaner than any team
we‘ve ever had. And I think im-
age is important."

So is experience.

“These kids have been in that
nerve~wracking position where
everyone is screaming for Florida
or Georgia. And they don’t lose
composure."
