Houses not just h

 

By Stephen D. Trimble
Assistant News Editor

 

The two red-brick homes that sit
on Bannett Court are not typical
eampus-area apartment buildings.

Counselors take the place of
landlords, and 15 women recover-
ing from substance addiction take
the place of a dozen or more col-
lege students.

The apamnents, which sit behind
The Mad Hatter on South Lime-
stone Street, are a place for mothers
to recover slowly — sometimes for
up to a year — from drug and alco-
hol addiction.

The project's name — Chrysalis
House —— is a simple analogy of its

purpose. Chrysalis occurs as a but-
terfly breaks from the cocoon it en-
tered as a caterpillar.

Every other weekend, the chil-
dren of Chrysalis House residents
visit. it‘s a time of joy and a time
of uneasiness, said Donna Lowen-
thal, Chrysalis child development
specialist.

For the mothers, it's a time to
learn how to be parents. For the
children, most of whom are placed
in foster homes or with relatives,
its time to start living normally
with a sober parent. Fathers seldom
are seldom seen.

"The children haven't been used
to discipline," Lowenthal said,
partly because the mothers them-

selves did not have “normal” child-
hood role models. “(The women)
really don't know what it means to
beamother."

Each biweekly visit with their
children leads the mothers toward
final recovery from drugs and alco-
hol. Lowenthal said. Chrysalis
counselors stress consistency dur-
ing the visits. The activities —
shopping, playing — remain the
same, and the house remains the
same.

Until recently, playing time for
the children suffered because the
nearest playground, Woodland
Park, was several blocks away.

But the house now has bona fide
playground in its backyard, thanks

Six architecture students have
melded mediums to form an ex-
hibit commemorating the demol-
ished buildings of Lexington's
Ben Synder block.

The exhibit has transformed a
rectangular room on the second
floor of Pence Hall into a maze
of memorabilia ranging from
photographs and architectural di-
agrams of the destroyed build-
ings to a large platform con-
structed with materials salvaged
from the actual structures.

“It was a devastation that these
buildings, which had no reason to
be torn down, were destroyed,"
said third-year student Kristina
Cantwell, who contribuited to the
exhibit. “They have molested the
city and taken away its heritage."

Carol Buhrmann, an architec-
ture professor, began organizing
the collective in November of
last year when she noticed how

 

 

Ron Jackson, a filth-year architecture student, and five others have constructed an exhibit
to raise awareness of the destruction of downtown buildings and culture.

The Death ofa City’

Students study block

many students were incorporating
the plight of the block into their
classwork.

“About 30 percent of the (archi-
tecture school's) student body doc-
umented the demolition," she said.
“Each student has a different take
(on the issue)"

Cantvvell said her bi-level plat-
form piece represents the “laby-
rinth" created by homeless people
who dwelt in the Main Street build-
ings before their destruction earlier
this year.

“I studied the floor plans and
went inside," Cantwell said. “It
was amazing —— (the homeless)
never had to leave the buildings to
move through the whole block."

As a whole, Buhrmann said the
installation is an effort to raise
awareness of the endangered status
of the downtown area.

“l’m really concerned with cit-
ies," she said. “There will hopeful-
ly come a time when we value
downtown. The city is a place for
all types of people to come togeth-
er. it is not just a place for buying

 

JAMES CHSHKemel Staff

and business."

Buhrmann said she is discou-
raged by a proposal to use the
former Ben Snyder block as the
location for a new court house.
rather than a cultural center.

“Putting a judicial center on
this'site will only bring people
downtown from nine to five.”
she said.

Fifth-year architecture student
Ron Jackson, who contributed
the photographs that document
the daily progress of the demoli-
tion, said “Lexington is disinte-
grating its historical base."

“We want people to realize the
alternatives," he said.

A symposium scheduled for
5:30 pm. April 12 in 209 Pence
Hall, titled “Future of the City,"
will address just that. Partici-
pants will include government
officials, professors and archi-
tects.

The exhibit, titled "The Death
of a City," will remain open to
the public Monday-Friday, 9am.
-10p.nt until April 22.

 

 

Series of tornadoes
takes at least 26 lives

 

By Jay Reeves
Associated Press

PIEDMONT, Ala. — A tomado
caved in the roof of a church
crowded with Palm Sunday wor-
shipers, killing 17 people. Fifteen
other people died as a series of
twisters and violent thunderstorms
tore through the Southeast

The tornado hit Goshen Metho-
dist Church about 11:30 am. shat-
tering windows raid toppling a
brick wall on a pew of children in
Easter audits waiting to sing in a
pageant

At least 90 people were injured,
authorities said. Six children, from
2to12yearsold.wereamongthc

Washipers said they heard wind

against the church, then the lights
went out.

“At that minute, things started
hitting the side of the church, and
something came through one of the
windows," said Carol Scroggins,
who was at the altar leading the
Easter program. “I just started to
scream, ‘Everybody get down!‘
People were screaming, but it hap«
pened so quickly there wasn’t
much time for reaction."

The tornado blew the church
steeple intotheparking lot

“One man ran down the aisle
yelling ‘Get on the floor!‘ " said
worshiper Elwmna Acker, 63.
"Then the roof came down. The
womanrigbtnexttomc died."

to UK‘s Alpha Phi Omega service
fratemity. Members of the fratemi-
ty spent more than 100 hours build-
ing the wooden play area, Alpha
member Nick Russell said.

He and 15 other members of the
fraternity spent much of their past
two weekends completing the pro-
ject. “They wanted to make it a lit-
tle more like home for the kids,"
said Russell, an engineering gradu-
ate student.

The materials were donated by
the Lexington Women’s Junior
League.

Besides providing a place for the
children to play outside, the project
will give them and their mothers a
needed break, Lowenthal said.

During the week, house residents
hold regular jobs in the communi-
ty. At 5 pm. all residents are borne
to cook their own suppers. They
also clean the entire house daily.

Each resident attends also Alco-
holics Anonymous meetings
throughout the week and must par-
ticipate in house meetings every
day. The sessions speed recovery,
which averages nine months, Low-
enthal said.

“It‘s not all fun and games," she
said.

Residents may leave the program
any time they wish.

If a mother fails random drug
testing, however, she is are asked
to leave. Verbal or physical abuse

ome for residents

against other residents also results
in expulsion.

The suict guidelines seem to
work. The United Way organiza-
tion prides itself on a 78 percent
success rate after a one-year peri-
od, Lowenthal said.

There's a two-month wait for ad-
dicts to even step through Chrysa-
lis‘ doors because of the low tumo-
ver rate of residents, Lowenthal
said.

Before women are considered for
the long-term treatment, they must
pass a 30-day, fast recovery phase
of ueatment.

Lowenthal said that month is the
hardest for her patients to experi-
ence.

Diversity conference
encourages interaction

 

By Diane Noren
Contributing Writer

 

 
  
   
 
   
  
  
 
  
 
  
    

Cultures, like walls, surround us
and protect us from our enemies.

Yet, when equipped with swing-
ing gates, they allow us to interact
with people from rich and diverse
backgrounds, foreign student advis-
er Carolyn Holmes said Saturday at
UK's first-ever Cross-cultural
Workshop.

The workshop, held at Spindle-
top Hall, was the finale of a week-
long celebration sponsored by
UK's Cultural Diversity Commit-
tee.

Other events throughout the
week included a speech by ac-
claimed Hispanic actor Edward

lames Olmos and an lntemational
Festival.

About 30 people, representing 12
different countries, attended Satur-
day’s workshop, which was de-
signed to “enhance cross-cultural
awareness," said Cultural Diversity
Committee chairman Terry Allen.

The students who attended the
workshop were asked what their
personal goals for the workshop
were when they registered.

Many said they wanted to gain an
understanding of people from dif~
ferent countries. Others said they
wanted to overcome cultural differ-
ences to make friends and seek re-
lationships.

Workshop activities included
role-playing games and group dis—
cussions.

Topics ranged from cultural dif-
ferences in body language to differ-
ent gender roles.

Many of the international stu-
dents who attended said they
thought Americans were friendly
but hard to get to know on a per-
sonal level.

Romy Cawood, a graduate stu-
dentin counseling psychology, said
her favorite part of the workshop
was the introductions, when partici-
pants would show on a map where
they were from and where they
have visited.

“It was a good way to get a real
sense of where people have been,"
said Cawood. who learned about
the workshop through a friend fmm
lndia.

FDA chief ignites debate

 

By Lauren Neergaard
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — David Kess-
ler stunned even supporters when
he announced he was considering
regulating, perhaps banning, cigar-
ettes.

It was merely the latest contro-
versyfathefieryFoodmdDrug
Administration commissioner.
Now the public is waiting to see if
the pediatrician who cracked down
on everything from ormge juice to
powerful drug makers will really

rein in the $60 billion tobacco in-
dustry.

“There is no greater public
health issue." Kessler insists.

But critics say this time Kessler
has gone too far.

“It’s another example of Kessler
seizing an issue to advance his
agenda, which is to make the pub.
lic think Doc Kesslcr is Mr. En-
forcement," said Kim Pearson, a
Washington lawyer who publishes
an FDA-watchdog newsletter.

Kessler doesn't think that's bad;
it‘s an image he has cultivated in

his three years as head of the agen-
cy charged with protecting Ameri-
cans from bad food or medicine. in
that time. he has:

seized orange juice mislabeled
“fresh.”

Kentucky author to be honored

Nationally known author James Still, a writer on Appalachian life for more than 50 years, will receive the
UK Library Associates‘ Medallion for Intellectual Excellence at the Otis A. Singletary Center for the Arts at
8: 15 pm. today.

A native of LaFayette, Ala., Still settled in Knott County, Ky., 62 years ago to work in community pro-
grams sponsored by the Hindman Settlement School. Through the years, his poems, short stories and novels
about the mountain dwellers of eastern Kentucky have given generations of American readers a greater un-
derstanding of this region.

The recipient of many awards since his first book of poetry, “Hounds of the Mountain," was published in
I937, Still has received the 0. Henry Memorial Prize for Short Story, the American Academy of Ans and
Letters Award, the Marjorie Peabody Waite Award, two Guggenheim fellowships and five honorary degrees.

Among his other works: the novels “River of Earth" and “Sporty Creek;" the short story collections, “On
Troublesome Creek” and “Pattern of a Mam” and his children’s books, “The Wolfpen Rusties” and “Widdles
and Gee Haw Whimmy Diddles."

His most recent book, “The Wolfpen Notebooks," was published in 1991.

Still holds degrees from Lincoln Memorial University, Vanderbilt University and the University of Illi-
nois. He has traveled and taught in 24 countries, and he maintains a special interest in Mayan civilization that
has resulted in l4 visits to Central America.

Still, 87, has done most of his writing from his home in the isolated community of Little Carr Creek, where
he grew most of his food, explored the mountains and fields, and participated in the daily life of the neigh-
borhood.

The Libraries Medallion recognizes intellectual achievements and creations of lasting value in Kentucky,
or performed by Kentuckians.

The four previous medallion honorees are UK historian and author Thomas Clark; former Kentucky gov-
ernor Ben T. Combs, who established UK's Community College System; 0. Leonard Press, founder of Ken-
tucky Educational Television; and Wendell Berry, a nationally known poet, teacher and social critic.

AIDS Walk for Life scheduled for May

The AIDS Walk for Life, which is designed to help raise money to help HIV and AIDS patients, will be
held May 1 at Commonwealth Stadium.

The walkathon will begin at Commonwealth Stadium’s parking lot and will cover 5 kilometers. Festivities
are planned for the entire afternoon.

Prizes will be awarded to the walkers who raise the most money during the event. Walkers may get spon-
sors for each kilometer walked. The individual who raises the most money will receive two round-trip airline
tickets from Delta Airlines. Anyone who raises $30 or more will receive a T-shin. Those who raise $100 or

more will receive sweatshirts.

McCullough is expected to talk
about the book, but his lecture is ti-

Book Awards and two Francis
Parkman Prizes. He also is the cur-
rent president of the Society of His-
torians and holds 10 honorary de-
grees.

McCullough won an Emmy
award for his work in the PBS se-
ries “Smithsonian World." He was
also narrator of several distin-
guished documentaries, including
“LBJ" and “The Civil War.”

McCullough, who gave the I986
lecture, is the first speaker in the
history of the Prichard Lecture to
be invited back a second time.

“Many people felt that he was the
best lecturer we‘ve ever had," said
Paula Pope, executive secretary of
UK Library Associates, which is
sponsoring the lecture.

Pope said the lectures help bring
notoriety to the library system.

“One of the main purposes for
bringing McCullough is to interest
people in supporting the library,"
she said. “It’s a good way to let the
students and faculty know that the
library is there for them."

The lecture is scheduled to begin
tonight at 8:15 in the Otis A. Sin—
gletary Center for the Arts Recital
Hall. Tickets are $10 for general
admission and $5 for students.

In the past, UK’s Advance Registration process was based on windows that opened but did not close
during the Advance Registration period. The UK-VIP telephone registration system, however, is
based on windows that open but also close. Therefore, please be aware of your registration window
and register during the three-day period that your priority window is open. Registration windows
are based on number of earned home (not including hours in progress) and the first letter of the last
name. The hours-earned categories are broken down in five-hour increments for undergraduates.
Therefore, a student with 85 earned hours will register before a student with 80 earned hours. This
is a change in the window pnbn'tyscheme from last semester, responding to student requests fora morepreci'se
