When asked of
her opinion of the

Mayor Pam Miller
said she did not
want to comment
on the proposal until it reaches her juris-
diction.

If the party plan is passed by a
majority vote of the Urban County Coun-
cil. it would be sent to the mayor for her
approval. Under city laws, Miller could
veto the plan.

But Susan Straub. Miller's press sec-

DeCamp originally proposed the plan

Residents can receive citations for
breaking noise ordinances or for serving

The plan outlines a "two strikes.

The Health Benefits i‘ommittee presented its preliminary
recommendations to the I'niversity Senate Monday. Thomas

tions created by the committee during their Till—plus hours of

Samuel said the presentation was important because the UK

"It is important that the l'niversity Senate have an opponu-

The core recilininendations included an increase in the sup-

Florida presidential ballots reviewed

TALLAHASSEE. Fla. 7— A media-sponsored
review of disputed ballots from the 2000 presiden-
tial election in Florida was “fascinating" but it
doesn‘t change anything. Sen. Joseph Lieberman
said Monday as he reaffirmed his support for
President Bush. Al Gore and Lieberman. the De-
rrrocratic vice presidential candidate. lost Florida
W and the presidency to Bush and Dick Ch-
eney by a scant 537 votes last year. The new ex~
arrrination of 175.000 Florida ballots which didn‘t
make it into state-certified totals indicated the
partial recounts Gore pursued in Florida would
still have left Bush clinging to the narrow lead he
had after Election Day.

Anthrax not a death sentence. study says

WASHINGTON ., Inhaled anthrax is a treat-
able infection and not a sure death sentence if
doctors recognize the disease early and treat it
aggressively. experts say in the Journal of the
American Medical Association. An analysis in
JAMA of the 10 recent cases shows that if doctors
speedily give patients a constellation of antibi-
otics. along with aggressively treating symptoms
such as the accumulation of fluid in the chest.
there is a high rate of survival. The rate of sur-
vival »- 60 percent for the recent inhalational
cases could well improve for future infections
because doctors across the country now are so
aware of anthrax and its symptoms.

Bishops reviewing war on terrorism

WASHINGTON 7 The nation‘s Roman
Catholic bishops began reviewing their position
on the war on terrorism Monday. acknowledging
a moral right to a military defense but warning
that force alone is not the answer. The authors of
a draft proclamation took pains to say that noth-
ing justifies terrorism. Still. they argued that
poverty. violence and human rights abuses. if not
addressed. generate resentment that terrorists
can exploit. The draft proposal urges U.S. leaders
to redefine foreign policy to make alleviating
global suffering a priority. and recommends lift-
ing economic sanctions against Iraq and helping
to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Airplane crash
ruled as accident

Catastrophic mechanical failure the cause,
all 260 people aboard killed, others missing

ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK ,, A jetliner en route to the Dominican Repub-
lic broke apart minutes after takeoff and crashed in a water
front neighborhood Monday. engulfing homes in flames and
sowing initial fears of a new terrorist atrocity. All 260 people
aboard were killed. and at least six others were reported miss‘
ing on the ground.

"All information we have currently is that this is an acci-
dent." said Marion Blakey. chairwoman of the National Trans-
portation Safety Board.

If there was an explosion on the plane and many witness-
es heard one 7 it was probably caused by a catastrophic me-
chanical failure. investigators said.

American Airlines Flight 587. a European-made Airbus
A300. left Kennedy Airport at 9:14 am. 74 nrinutes late because
of security checks put in place after the World Trade Center at-
tack. according to American Airlines chairman Don Carty. It
took off into a clear blue sky.

Three minutes later, it spiraled nose—first into the Rock-
away Beach section of Queens a middle-class neighborhood.

cluding firefighters and financial workers. in the Trade Center
catastrophe just two months ago.

"I just thought. ‘Oh. no. not again.”' said Milena Owens.
who was putting up Thanksgiving decorations when she heard
an explosion.

Furious orange flames towered above the treetops. and a
plutne of thick. black smoke could be seen miles away.

Authorities found the flight data recorder. one of the two
“black boxes” from the twin-engine jet. and said it would be ex-
am irred for clues.

Witnesses reported hearing an explosion and seeing an en—
girre. a large chunk of a wing and other debris falling off the
plane as it came down.

An engine was found intact in a parking lot at a Texaco sta-
tion. where it had missed the gas pumps by no more than 6 feet:
neighbors ran to the scene with garden hoses to put out the fire.
The vertical stabilizer ,, the tail for W, was pulled from Jamaica
Bay. just offshore. Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said.

American Airlines said there were 251 passengers in-
cluding five infants sitting on their parents' laps w and nine
crew merrrhers.

"I don‘t believe there are any survivors at this point." Giu-
liani said.

By early evening. 225 bodies had been recovered. he said.
Klieg lights the kind of lights used at ground zero at the
Trade Center were brought in so recovery workers could
work into the night.

At least six and perhaps as many as eight people. all adults.
were reported missing on the ground. the mayor said.

Six houses were mostly destroyed. and six others sustained
serious damage. Giuliani said.

UK students' lack of voting
leads 0 lessened influence

The reasoning: Few ties to local community

discourage voting but

By Emily Hagedorn
KERNEL URBAN COUNIY COUNCIL WRITER

Because few students vote.
they have little influence on the
majority of lawmakers. This is
cited as a reason when Urban
County Council members such
as 3rd District Councilman
Dick DeCamp say they don't
represent students.

“It is not at all surprising a
representative would turn a
deaf ear to students." said
Ernest Yanarella. a political sci
ence professor. “The general at-
titude is they have very little
influence."

To legislators. student pop-
ulations are an ever changing

UK still has influence

body. Because many students
are not going to reside in Lex-
ington their entire lives. most
do not vote at all or only vote in
their hometowns.

"(Students) are not rooted
in the community where they
go to school.“ said Mark Pef—
fley. a political science profes-
sor.

“Younger people very often
don't vote. and when they don‘t
use it. they lose it.“ he said
about students influence on
politicians.

Even though students may
not take part in politics. the UK
area still carries influence.

“All you have to do is look
at the economy in summer and

then in fall.“ said George
Brown Jr., lst District council-
man and a UK employee.

But professors say UK stu-
dents can become influential by
registering to vote.

“Students are not mobi-
lized." said Richard Fording. a
political science professor.
“They have to demonstrate
they are a force to be reckoned
with."

Beginning today. students
can register to vote at the Stu-
dent Government office. SG
President Tim Robinson said
the initiative is due to actions
regarding the Lexington Area
Party Plan. Robinson said SG is
attempting to find ways to vote
out representatives like Do
Camp and find new candidates.

Criticism is not only com-
ing from students. though.

"DeCamp needs to feel how

the students feel." Brown said.
“If students get involved. it in-
creases the constituency and in-
fluence."

Reglsbrtovote

Student Government will regis-
ter people to vote today after to
am. in the 56 office in Room 120
of the Student Center.

To be registered to vote in an
election. people must:

_- Be US. citizens and 18 years
old on or before the election date

0 Be residents of Kentucky and
the county in which they live for at
least 28 days before elections

- Not be convicted felons

0 Not be registered to vote in
any other states

- Not have been declared men-
tally incompetent by a court

 

 

PARTY PLAN

Continued from page 1

sends a message we aren‘t wel-
come.“ he said. "We're not here
to support those who break the
law."

LAPP was based on the Col-
lege Area Party Plan. a plan in
San Diego. Calif. to limit distur-
bances. The name was changed
in May at an Urban County
Council meeting to include oth-
er parts of the city. rather than
the areas close to UK.

For residents that have at
least two complaints requiring
police enforcement. a cap could
be placed on the property. This
would deem the property a “no—

party“ zone for one year.

If a tenant can prove the
source of the disturbance is no
longer a factor. before the year
is passed. they could petition
the chief of police and possibly
have the cap removed.

Dave Cooper. the vice presi-
dent of the Elizabeth Street
Neighborhood Association. said
he‘s in favor of LAPP because it
could be a solution to late night
disturbances. "Noises from par-
ties is the biggest complaint I
hear.“ he said. "We need a good
night sleep."

The plan says tenants who
violate their cap could be arrest-
ed and face increased fines.

Some students said they are
concerned these restrictions
could be problematic.

“Laws that are on the books

now need to be enforced." said
Justin Rasner. a biology fresh-
man and member of the Fresh-
man Representative Council.
"When you‘re 18. you're held to
a higher standard. If you expect
less. you‘ll get less and this law
expects less."

Nancy Stengel. an Arcadia
Park homeowner and UK em-
ployee. supports LAPP. She
said. contrary to what many stu-
dents and landlords say. the pro-
posal is not discriminatory to»
ward students.

“Even if my dad and his
friends are causing problems. I
expect the law to be enforced on
him.“ she said.

Councilman Jacques Wig-
ginton. of the second district.
voted against LAPP because he
said it is not the solution.

When Ted Vimont woke up
two weekends ago. it wasn‘t to
the usual sound of an alarm

“The neighbors evidently
had a stereo system on their
front porch." he said. Vimont
has lived in his home in the
campus area for 44 years. and he
said he's not about to move.

Vimont believes the party
plan will bring silence back to
his neighborhood. “I don‘t want
my neighborhood to be a college
campus." he said.

innocent victims of the plan.
“They could have just a small
patty. and not know about the
cap.“ House said. "and unfair
ly get fined for what the previ-
ous residents did."

John Johnston. a campus
area landlord. also expressed
doubts about the plan. “I feel it
is somewhat of an infringe—
ment of rights. that may or
may not be constitutional.

“I'm sort of ambivalent
about the plan. I don't like gov—
ernment restrictions on prop
erty. but I‘m not for the right

Another landlord said the
problem is in mobilization.

Andy McIntire. who co—
owns and rents several proper-
ties near campus. said student
views are not effectively advov
cated compared to those of
neighborhood associations
representing non-student resi-
dents.

“The neighborhood associ-
ations. which are undemocrat-
ic and unrepresentative. have
such a disproportionately
large voice in city affairs be-
cause they are organized."
McIntire said. “Students are
predominantly apathetic so
they‘re easy to ignore.“

Johnston said a balance
should be found. “I like to keep
peace with neighbors. and
with my tenants as well. But I
question the need for city ordi~
nances at this point."

her husband on Edgemoor Dri-
ve for a year. and has filled her
recycle bin six times with beer
bottles. But the bottles are not
from one of her parties ~ they
are remnants from her neigh-
bors‘ parties. “The street would
be littered (when I got up in the
morning)." she said.

While she understands that
students want to party. she does-
n't agree with the uncontrol-
lable behavior.

Vansickles said she loses
nearly three to four hours of
sleep each night because of her
neighbors parties. "The quality
of life is affected." she said.

Stolen property

“It is agreed there is a prob-
lem," he said. “What we‘re look-
ing for is a remedy. I haven‘t
seen yet how another law will
fix this."

Lisa Johnson. a Transylva-
nia Park resident in favor of
LAPP and UK Coalition mem»
ber. said she is not opposed to
students. In fact she said she ap-
preciates her student neighbors.

“I only want tenants to an-

patriotic since the suicide hi-
jackings of Sept. 11 hasn‘t been
easy.

The American flag waving
outside Susan Miller's house on
Floral Park was stolen early in
the morning by college students
during a neighborhood party.
she said.

After her husband confront-
ed their neighbors. it was re-
turned.

"It irritated me that some-

taken a stance on this issue as
well.

“From my standpoint. I‘m
outraged but optimistic," said
Student Government President
Tim Robinson. “This will give
students a wake-up call. We‘re
going to have to organize and
speak louder if we want to be
heard.“

SG representatives have
been working to fight the patty
plan for more than five months
by holding several work ses
sions regarding the ordinance
proposal.

Robinson said it is the orga-
nization‘s belief that the party

plan was designed to push stu-
dents out of neighborhoods sur»
rounding UK. not to fight repeat
noise offenders as its advocates
have suggested.

Robinson said the proposal
is not a tool for solving the prob
lem but a way to harass the stu-
dent body. “Maybe the student
body doesn‘t understand how
the (city) government is going
to treat UK." he said. “(The gov-
ernment) has crossed the line
and now we are going to fight
straight on."

The feeling that the party
plan will not treat all students
fairly is felt by more than uni-
versity organizations.

‘ I feel such offenses should
not be taken on such an equal
footing." Gaspard said. “Inci-
dents should be looked at on an
individual basis.“
