Don’t Forget

A quick
reminder

If you haven't made
it to your classes yet,
you might want to be
sure you go today. Ac-
cording to the Regis-
trar‘s Office. professors
have the right to drop
you from a class if you
aren't in attendance at
one of the first two class
dates. The rule is listed
in section 5.1.8.1 of the
Senate code, and is also
in the Handbook for Stu-
dent Rights and Respon-
sibilities, which you can
find in the Dean of Stu-
dents Office.

“l'd like to stress the
fact that professors
have the right to do this.
it doesn't mean that
they will, so it is the stu-
dent's responsibility to
drop the course if they
are not going to attend."
said Michelle Nordin, as-
sistant registrar.

Maier's
murder
still left

unsolved

Memory remains: Students,
faculty remember friend

By Steven Scrivner

He murdered one UK student and raped
and nearly killed another. Nearly a year lat-
er. police still have no idea who he is.

“We‘ve eliminated some people. but
we still don‘t know who did it.“ said Lt.
William Fockele. chief of the robbery and
homicide unit for Lexington Police.

This Saturday marks the oneyear an-
niversary of Christopher Maier‘s death.
Maier. a theatre design student at UK. was
killed while walking down some railroad
tracks near Edison Avenue early in the
morning with his girlfriend, who was also
raped and nearly beaten to death.

To draw more attention to the crime.
Maier‘s family and a Central Kentucky
donor is offering a $25,000 reward for in-
formation leading the conviction of their
sons killer.

Maier. a member of Phi Kappa Psi so.
cial fraternity. spent much of his time in
the theatre department. which is honor-
ing him by establishing the Christopher
Maier Memorial Fund, UK policy says a
scholarship must be at least $5000 to be
awarded. The department is about $1,300
short, said Esther Livingston. administra.

Researchers
find protein

linked to
Alzheimer’s

By Zuber Deshmukh
CONTRIBUTING WRllEii

A team of UK researchers has discov-
ered that a protein may be a cause of
Alzheimer's disease and related brain dis-
orders.

A multidisciplinary team of UK re-
searchers. under the leadership of Dr.
Mark Mattson. has recently discovered
that Par-4. a protein. might lead to nerve
cell death in Alzheimer's disease and re-
lated brain disorders.

Published in the August issue of
Nature's Medicine. the research shows
an increased level of Par-4 in nerve
cells in the brains of Alzheimer's dis-
ease patients. suggesting a link to the
disease.

Suppressing Par-4 might be useful as
a future treatment for the disease. said
Mark Mattson, professor of anatomy and
neurobiology who led the team.

”The study's findings identify a new
molecular target upon which to aim the
emerging arsenal of weapons in the battle
against Alzheimer's disease." Mattson

Some students are marching to a differ»

into gear.

While many students are busy buying
books and doing other lastminute book
buying and class rearranging. more than

““When you have to get 300 people or

The first two weeks before school were
like boot camp for band members. The UK
band. majors-ties and color guard practiced
12 hours a day and also put in several
hours of outside practice time during the
week.

“We are expected to put on a good show
the very first football game. and while the
football team and cheerleaders have all

sumnr r to prepare. we only have these
two weeks." Ford said.

The field in front ofthe Student Center

learn two other shows they will perform
at pro-game and at halftime during the

football season.

Performing threc different shows :i
year means that more than 2:30 peopli'

well as the accompanying movements
and formations.

"()ur show for the season opener has a
Spanish influence." music senior Brian
Flack said. “We are working on this and

three other shows and we also practice
cadences and other rock-and-roll in

Paris naming park after Diana

PARIS — The city of Paris on Thursday an-
nounced plans to transform an old school in the
heart of the capital into a nature center named
after Princess Diana.

At the center, children will be able to discov-
er difl‘erent vegetables and plants and will be
taught to respect nature.

The center will open next spring.

Mayor Jean Tiberi has expressed a desire to
rename a street in Paris for Diana, who was
killed in a car crash in a Paris traffic tunnel
nearly year ago.

However, the procedure takes five years af-
ter a person's death.

A poll earlier this month found that 70 per-
cent of French people want a street or square to
be named afier her.

Maier and his friend left a par-

Raising Alabama: Tide
turns for DuBose, staff

Looking up: ‘Bama tries to return
to lost luster of program's past

ASSOCIATED PRESS

TUSCALOOSA. Ala.
— He tried to ignore it. to
set it aside the way Bear
Bryant would have.

But the boos that cas-
caded out of Bryant-Den-
ny Stadium. the humbling
losses to Kentucky and
Louisiana Tech, the long
December that included
recruiting trips instead of
bowl practices made that
impossible.

And finally. after a
season of suffering and
soul searching, Alabama
coach Mike DuBose had
to admit it — the Crimson
Tide has found itself in
the middle of an honest-
to-goodness rebuilding
project.

Not the kind Bryant
would have overseen
when his empire was at
its peak —- tinker with the
ofiense here, recruit a few

more tailbacks there.
Those were easy com-
pared to this.

This is like starting
over.

“A lot of negative
things were written and a
lot of negative things were
said for good reason," Du-
Bose said of last year's 4-7
season, Alabama’s worst
since 1957. “This year, it’s
critical that we stay posi-
tive. And it has got to
start with me."

But maybe DuBose
got into this situation be-
cause he was too positive
in his first season last
year, when 4-7 records

were troubles they wor-
ried about at places like
Mississippi and Mary-
land, not at ‘Bama.

instead. the coach
merely hinted at the prob-
lems. Everyone knew
about the probation-relat-
ed scholarship reduc-
tions. Gene Stallings had
never used them as an ex-
cuse. had he?

But the thin recruit-
ing classes of Stallings'
regime turned into the
upperclassmen of the Du-
Bose tenure —» and there
weren‘t a lot of them.

Before the season,
DuBose recognized that
and predicted the team
would need big contribu~
tions from up to 15 new-
comers. But he didn't ful-
ly explain just what that
can mean to a program.

It took three painful
months for everyone to
find out.

“It was hard,“ tailback
Shaun Alexander said.
“We've done everything
we can in the offseason to
change things. This is not
a team, or a program, that
takes 4:: very easily."

DuBose fired three of
Stallings’ holdover assis-
tants and one of his own.
replacing them with
coaches he could trust.

At offensive coordinao
tor is DuBose’s old college
roommate, Neil Callaway.
Callaway will work with
new quarterbacks coach
Charlie Stubbs. who came
from Nevada-Las Vegas to

install a passing offense
like the one DuBose
promised but never deliv-
ered last year.

“it was a mistake not
to stay committed to it
last year," DuBose said.
“But we’ve got to be com»
mitted to something. And
if we're going to recruit
the guys who want to
catch the football, the of-
fensive linemen who
want to go to the NFL,
we've got to make the
commitment to an offense
that fits those talents.”

The first piece of that
puzzle was landing Birm-
ingham-area quarterback
Tyler Watts, one of the
country’s top recruits.

Some other pieces —
like freshmen wide re-
ceiver Freddie Milons
and offensive tackle Bart
Raulston — are there too.

DuBose's new recruit-
ing chief, Ronnie Cottrell.
will also play a key role.
Cottrell came to Alabama
after working as Bobby
Bowden‘s recruiting coor‘
dinator at Florida State for
eight years. He‘ll be in
charge of assembling the
1999 class, the one DuBose
calls the most important in
the history of the school.

“Our plan may not
make us better right
now,” DuBose said. “But it
will make us better in sev-
en or eight weeks — or in
a year, two years or three
years down the road."

He probably won’t

Football

classics

energize

weekend

Ladies and gentlemen,
get your clicker; the
greatest spectacle in
sport is here.

College football kicks
off this weekend, and
unlike seasons past,
this year’s so-called
classics could live up

Aaron

 

Sandertord to preseason hype.
mum-“T mix—o. The first day offers an
entrée of intrigue and a

side of spice. The in-
trigue starts Saturday in East Lansing, Mich.,
where a pair of secondary programs battle on
cookie sheet turf.

Michigan State and Colorado State are the
bastard stepchildren of their state’s best, even
in years when fielding a better team. But both
programs can make national noise this season
in the backyard of big brother.

MSU lives in the shadow of Maize and
Blue, but the No. 24 Spartans engineered a
team that could tackle the top half of the Big
Ten.

Meanwhile, No. 15 CSU is enjoying an up
heaval of sorts. Few teams are reaping more
benefit from woeful Colorado's fall from
grace. But the folks in Fort Collins are 1-7
against the Buffaloes since 1986, and CSU
only has one week to prepare for CU. So the
Spartans could have a mental advantage.

The subplot struggle for prominence
gives the game a dramatic flair, and the on-
thefield fight should be a nail-biter.

Another Saturday stop that the socalled
experts wrote off is perfect for college football
aficionados. Where better to start 1998 than
where the Sears Trophy ended up in 1997 -—
Lincoln, Neb.

No. 4 Nebraska hosts upstart indepen-
dent Louisiana Tech in a clash of styles at the
start of a new era in corn country.

First-year Coach Frank Solich takes over
a defending national champion on a 60-3 tear.
And in his first season at the helm of an of-
fense that lost eight starters, Solich is subject
to Comhusker fans expecting no less than the
promised land. No pressure, really.

Husker opponent Louisiana Tech is a
pass-happy team with nothing to lose. By
now, this theme should sound familiar.

After being bowled over by a system
without need for independents, Tech beefed
up its non-conference schedule and figura-
tively said, “To hell with Mr. Nice Guy.”

NU’s transition from Tom Osborne to
Frank Solich is enough to keep football fans
in camp. but there is so much more. The
Huskers boast one of the nation’s toughest de
fensive units, and Tech brings all-world quar-
terback Tim Rattay to the table.

For those of you scratching your heads,
Rattay was the only quarterback in the nation
with more total yardage than UK’s Tim Couch.

Not bad for the first day.

Chasing goals

Cross-town collision: UK and Transylvania
meet for the first time this weekend in a
women's soccer exhibition battle

By Matthew Hay

SPORTSDAILY EDITOR

It may be just an exhibition
game, but on Sunday, UK will
take on cross-town school Tran-
sylvania in women's soccer for
the first time ever.

The match up at 1 pm. at
UK’s new soccer complex. pits
the Cats, who finished a tough
1997 schedule at 9-12-1. but 6-2 in
the Southeastern Conference,
against Transy. who posted a
terrific 22-3-1 mark.

UK could have their hands
full with the Pioneers. who lost
no seniors from the squad that
finished fifth in the NAIA Tour-
nament last season. The team
finished 12-0 at home. outscor~

ing their opponents 75-5, and
also posted a 10-3-1 record away
from home.

The Pioneers are led by ju-
nior Sarah Focke. who obliter~
ated opposing defenses to the
tune of 39 goals. 14 assists and
110 shots. Junior Shannon
Bacher forms the other half of a
dynamic forward duo. as she
racked up 25 goals. 15 assists
and 60 shots.

The defense is led by a
group of talented players in-
cluding junior Sarah Kelley;
and sophomores Jackie Glass.
Krista Smith and Meghan
Kane. The goal keeping will be
handled by sophomore Dena
Manalli. who saved 80 of 104
shots last year and had 11

shutouts.

Transylvania coach Parviz
Zartoshty was ecstatic to get an
opportunity to see how his
squad stacks up against a high‘
er division opponent.

“We're excited to have the
chance to play a Division I
team," Zartoshty said. “This
will give us a chance to see
what kind of progress we‘ve
made and where we are as a
team.”

Zartoshty was very appre-
ciative of UK coach Warren Lip-
ka's decision to schedule the ex-
hibition match.

“Warren has been generous
to schedule this scrimmage and
give us this opportunity," he
said.

UK will come into the
match looking to see where the
team stands as the season gets
set to kick off. Despite a subpar
overall record last season. UK
proved they can play with the
big girls as they went 6-2

against their SEC slate, beating
Alabama and Auburn, among
others.

The team will be young. but
experienced as the Cats lost
only three starters last season
and ret
