Men of Haggin
proceeds beneﬁt
United Way

By GREGORY A. HALL
Staff Writer

Homecoming queen K.C.
Watts became used to large ob-
noxious crowds when she was
crowned before 50,000 fans in
Commonwealth Stadium. But
last night Watts was exposed to a
crowd for which she was not pre-

The Men of Haggin Hall per-
formed the final production of
their all-male revue fund raiser for
United Way at Blanding Tower's
23rd floor. Five Haggin residents
danced in the dark before 50
screaming women. Sometimes
the girls came out of the audi-
ence, and in K.C.’s case, the girls
were grabbed by the men.

“In front of 50,000 people, I
didn’t have to dance,” said Watts
comparing the two experiences.
“It was fun, but it was kind of
embarrassing."

After the men performed their
routines, they paraded before the
ladies one final time in an auction
to the highest bidder. The girl in
the audience who donated the
most money to the United Way
for a performer received his servi-
tude for 24 hours.

Admission was $1.

The servitude comes in various
forms. Last year Vertrces went to
a UK basketball game. As a result
of another performance last night
in Boyd Hall, a dancer will have
to perform at a wedding shower.

“When you first get on stage it

“that is the most embarrassing
part. That is a real crushing ex-

Crum pleads ignorant of wrongdoing

Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The Uni-
versity of Louisville will file a re—
port to answer questions about
whether basketball coach Denny
Crum violated NCAA rules by
meeting with the mother of recruit
Dwayne Monon two days before
the prep standout committed to
Louisville.

Louisville sports information di-
rector Kenny Klein said that the
school was “following the proper
procedures and ﬁling a report to the
Metro Conference, which will in
turn go to the NCAA to take any
action necessary to clear up this."

Klein said the university would
“neither confirm nor deny any pos-

sible NCAA violations."

Morton, a 6-6 forward at Louis—
ville Central High, announced
Wednesday that he would attend
Louisville. He has been heavily re-
cruited by both Crum and Universi-
ty of Kentucky Coach Rick Pitino.

Crum said he was sitting in his
office with former Louisville
player Robbie Valentine after prac-
tice, and “in walked Charlotte Mor-
ton and Ralph Johnson. I said,
‘Hello,’ and they said, ‘Hi.‘ and
they said, ‘What’s going on?’ They
said they came over to watch prac—
tice. I said sit down.”

Crum said the four “conversed a
while. We talked about a lot of
things.“

Crum said the team finished

practice earlier than usual because
of a change in the training sched-
ule. Practice was over by 5 pm.
CST, instead of the usual 6 pm.
quitting time.

According to Crum, Johnson
then asked about a video he had
seen earlier of a player who had
spent some time in prison and now
gives lectures to teenagers about
staying out of trouble.

“I said. ‘Would you like to see
it?m Crum said. “Charlotte said,
‘Yeah‘...It‘s a very moving tape.”

After the tape finished, Crum
said, the group continued talking
until Johnson suggested they all go
to dinner together. Crum told John-

UK’s response
to NCAA probe
gets high marks

By BARRY REEVES
Sports Editor

UK should serve as a model for
other schwls because of its cooper-
ation during the probes of the Wild-
cat basketball program. NCAA ex-
ecutive director Richard Schult/
said yesterday.

“At Kentucky, you conducted the
model situation," Schultz. said in
comments to the Lexington Rotary
Club.

“Some people were not happy
with the way that happened," he
said in reference to some Kentucky
supporters. “You should be \ery
happy, and you should be Very
pleased. you really don’t know him
blessed you are to have a presi-
dcnt...of your uiiiucrsity
brillant, articulate and iti'.‘ as
much courage and a; strong a lead ir
as David Roselle.

“I think th:y (Kentucky officials)
set an example for other institu-
tions on how it‘s supposed to
done."

At a news conference following
the speech. Schult/ said NCAA of-
ficials had considered shutting down
Kentucky‘s lzraskethall program.

Instead. the NCAA (‘ommittec
on Infractions placed the Wildcats.
on three years probation banned
the team from postseason play for
two seasons and barred them 37‘ 5'71
live television appearances for oar:
season.

“The infractions committee can
call for the death penalty at am
point, if they think the situation
warrants it." Shall/z told reimrien

BERLIN —— East Germany
opened the Berlin Wall and its
other borders yesterday. and its
cheering citizens crossed freely
into the West for the first time
since l96l.

Late yesterday, exultant East
Germans began passing through
Berlin Wall checkpoints and oth-
ers entered West Germany at oth—
er border crossings. Jubilant peo-
ple pranced and danced atop the
Berlin Wall, a sight unthinkable
only hours earlier.

Hundreds were seen on the
Friedrichstrasse subway to West

the Allied military.

Many bagged and kissed total
strangers, a title cars packed with
Fast Germans and others paraded
down the streets of West Berlin
in a carnival-like titiiiosphere.

“It‘s cra/yf It‘s crazy!" yelled
one young man as he sat in the
back seat of a cat with his par-
ents after a brief trip through the
once-impenetrable Berlin Wall.

wanted to see the West and then
drive back. They declined to give
their names.
