Jim Hill. student member of the Council on Higher Education.
has come under tire for neglecting student issues

Student presidents
critical of CHE’s Hill

By TOM SPALDING
Execs! ve Editor

it may only be a coincidence that Sean Lehman no longer is on :i
l‘lfs‘irlldlllt,‘ basis with Jim Hill. the student representatiye on the
(‘orineil of Higher thication. Lohman now refers to the thinlyxzr
i'ls' law student as simply “Mr. Hill."

But insiders point to a more serious discontent, and it isn't last an
isolated case. Student leaders say it's an example of the tepid rela-
tionship that exists between Hill and the student body presidents of
the state's eight universities.

A relationship that M while never exactly being rosy has
reached new lows.

“lt‘s gotten to the point w here they're not seeing eye—to-eye.” said
lohn lilder. state coordinator for govemmental relations on the
Heard of Student Body Presidents. "It's kind of showing the stress in
their relationship.~

Tensions have been high in the almost two years Hill has sat on
the ('ouncil. simply because he differs with the eight student body
presidents on how the student representative should operate.

But they reached a low cbb last week when Hill blasted a bill be-
ing passed through the legislature that calls for a restructuring of
how the student representative is to be appointed to the CHE.

The CHE is involved with important dcc1sions such as setting tut—
tion. Because of that, student leaders say that representative should
be more closely attuned to the student body presidents" interests.

“The bottom line on this thing." Hill said. “is that the student body
presidents want a student member on the council they can control."

Board members vehemently disagreed, saying the bill ——- which
was passed by the House of Representatives last Thursday and could
go in front of the Senate for approval as early as tomorrow »-~ will
give more students say in who sits on the board.

Currently. the goyernor chooses the student representative to a
ontvyear term after each student body president writes an individual
lL‘llL‘f til lt‘c'tlllllllClltlLlllllll.

iii the bill the student body presidents propose that the student rep~
resentative on the council be chosen by the governor from a list of
three names sent in by the student board.

Board members say this way of choosing the council‘s student
member will ensure better representation since the student will be
chosen through a collective decision.

That agreement would take into account the views of more than
l-iittiiiil college students. Lohman said. "and that ought to say some
thing.”

lint Hill argued it meant nothing. except to possibly challenge the
authority of(}ov. Wallace Wilkinson.

And so last week he let his opposition to the bill be known. going
as far as to ask members of the Jefferson County delegation to vote
against it in the House.

That angered the student presidents. who don‘t understand why
Hill would oppose a bill they perceive would help students.

“it seems to me that Mr. Hill could add one plus one. plus one,
plus one. plus one, plus one. plus one, plus one and come up with
eight." said liddie Allen. Murray State University student govern-
ment president. “Eight people have unanimously supported the bill.
If he can‘t add that up. and can‘t represent us. someone's going to
have to."

“If eight universities support this.“ said Harrison (iilliam. More-
head State University student government president. “I don‘t see
how he can't.”

WUKY news director hopes to improve J -School

By AYSER SALMAN
Contributing Writer

Patricia Murray isn’t too con-
cerned about
being the first
black faculty
member in
UK’s College
of Communica-
tions. Instead.
she prefers to
focus on her
professional
achievements.

“My goal is
to work toward MURRAY
improving things (like broadcast-
ing) in the department,” she said.
“It’s not so much dealing with mi-
nority issues."

Murray, who was named to the
journalism faculty last month to
teach broadcast news and serve as
WUKY-FM news director. said
that her racial background should

not be so significant to hcryob.

“The most important thing is not
that a black person is in the School
of Journalism," she said. “It's that
we become able to help students
transfer their skills to broadcasting.
This shows that broadcast joumal-
ism is moving forward and hope-
fully the hiring of blacks is only
part of the progress.”

And Murray's philosophy com~
plements the director of UK‘s
School of Journalism, David Dick.

“If we ever get to the point where
females don't have to be reminded

that they are female, or blacks of

their color then we‘ve reached a
new level of racial equality." Dick
said.

Murray said she didn‘t want peo-
plc to view her as a role model be»
cause of her status.

“lt‘s time to have a black in the
college." she said. “I did not kno-x

that there had not been one here be-
fore. But if I’m looked at 'd\ a role
model -— the first black to set the
pace for Other blacks iher. it
could become a burden "

Murray said she sees hersell as
someone wrth something to share
with her students.

Murray came to [K lll‘lll ls’eri-
tticky State University where she
worked as information coordinator
ill cooperative extensi- it. priigraitis

A graduate of Jackson State lini-
yersity in Mississippi, she was di-
rector of programming at its public
radio station. Site also worked a.»
news correspondent for the Nation»
til Black Network and .\:itional
Public Radio. and also .i\ news di-
rector at a Jack w \l.\\. radio
station.

Murray said her :iiais include to

First Amendment a responsibility, editor says

By SHARLA HENSLEY
Contributing Writer

To better appreciate the First
Amendment‘s guarantee of lrcedom
of the press is to imagine America
without it, according to Kentucky
l’ost Fditor Judith Clabcs.

(,‘labes, who played a major role
in establishing the First Amendment
Center in the Enoch (irehan Jour-
nalism Building. talked about the
First Amendment and the response
bility it entails as a part of the First
Amendment Speaker Series.

The First Amendment is “every-
body's Amendment." Clabcs told
about 20 people last Thursday. Jour-

nalists. she said, must stop laying
special claim to it and help others
reali/e its importance.

t‘labes, a graduate oi I'ls's
School of Journalism. won the
1088 i‘. W. Scripps National l‘llsl
Amendment Award and is a totind»
mg member of the Kentucky i itst
.-\iiiendment Congress and a loimd
mg director of the Kentucky (‘enter
for Public Issues.

“The greatest threat to the first
Amendment wtll always come tr'om
Within." Clabes said. “it comes
when we fail to recogni/e that.

UK forwards Deron Feldhaus (12) and John Pelphrey press Georgia
point guard Litterial Green. The Cats forced 33 turnovers.

Sitting on bench lights
fire under rookie Woods

By ROBERT NORMAN
Staff Writer

Sometimes the best way to get
the most out of a basketball player
is to see to it
that he doesn’t
play at all.

Sounds ab-
surd, but that
was UK coach
Rick Pitino‘s
hypothesis
when he did a
little experi-
ment on Sean
Woods, the
Cats' usual
starter at point guard. The experi-
ment’s site was Rupp Arena last
week at the Ole Miss game.

Pitino placed Richie Farmer in
the starting role, while Woods sat
on the bench.

Judging from the results, the hy-
pothesis is now a working theory,
if not a scientific fact of basketball.

Woods, a determined competitor
by nature, responded by leading a
swarming press to disrupt Ole
Miss, and in an impressive victory
over Georgia Saturday he led the
Cats in scoring and overall excite-
merit.

He said after the game that “that
he had something to prove."

“I think when Richie went into
the starting lineup for him, he got
out of the comfort zone and said,
‘Wait a second I got to get that
thing back,‘ and he went into an-
other level of intensity," Pitino
said.

“It got me,” Woods said of the
bench time. “He's (Pitino) waking
me up; he’s teaching me to put
things in perspective.”

WOODS

 

The experiment, based on the
positive effects of negative rein—
forcement, may have catalyzed a
process that has evolved during
Woods’ first eligible season: Sean
Woods is growing up.

Woods ran the court Saturday
with a control and confidence he
had only hinted at previously. He
attacked the Georgia defense with
abandonment, as he often does, and
found the subtle holes, back doors
and pockets in the defense, like he
rarely does.

“1 think he did everything the
right way," Pitino said. “When
they pressured him. he got by. he
went by, got people open, made
some great back-door passes.

“That for me was the highlight.“

Woods was the highlight for a
lot of the 21,000-plus screaming
fans at Rupp Arena Saturday. He
led all scorers with 20 points on s—
11 shooting from the field and 4-4
on the line. But more importantly.
he found a new way to direct the
UK offense.

Gone are the days of 3-point
bomb festivals and those lean feasts
on the scraps of other teams. The
Cats entered a new level of rhythm
and motion against Georgia that is
primarily, as Pitino will attest. due
to Woods and his nouveau-wealth
of confidence and court savvy.

“He‘s doing a great ~iob driving to
the basket and finding open peo—
ple," teammate Deron Feldhaus

That has not always been the

ability, Woods has relied on those
gifts along with a sharp confidence

ball.

were primarily caused by river—

Pitino said the cause of the mis-
takes was ”fatigue." But it must be
noted that Woods lost his freshman
year to Proposition ~18 and is thus
only a sophomore iit a technical
sense.

That basic inexperience may have

A w eird thing happened Saturday
afternoon Rick Pitino got his
Wildcat basketball players to play
like a "wounded tiger."

The l'ls' coach was trying to get
his team to play beyond their norm
because they were playing. for the
most part, without the services of
sophomore forward John Pelphrey
the Cats" third-leading scorer.

Before the game Pitino did not
know if Pelphrey, who was suffer—
ing from the flu, would be able to
play. So in his pre-game speech
challenged his Wildcats to pull to-
gether and “pick up the slack.”

“We had to play tonight like a
wounded tiger." Pitino said, “and
we did."

And his message sunk in as the
(‘ats defeated Southeastem Confer—
ence-leading l'niversity of Georgia

Rupp Arena.

"l told them that when Bernard
King iot the New York Knicksi
went out one time. he was leading
the league iii scoring and we went
1 1-! i without him because we had
an expression - - watch out for the
wounded tiger." l’itino said. refer-
ring to his days as an \llA coach
”.-\nd we told them that Pelphrey
would not be there tonight.

Pelphreyi would give us some
minutes. btit we can't make up for
John. obviously. ileff'i Brassow'
cannot make tip for John Pelphrey
He‘s a freshman but everybody
else can play harder and better in
the other areas.“

“We knew l’el was iii a lot of
hurt. so we inst had to ptill togeth-
er and get the iob done." sdltl l'ls'
center Reggie Hanson. who stored
1% points. grabbed eight rebounds
and made six steals. ”liycrybody

Thankfully, that w as enough."

bench to score 1 1 points and hand
out four assists in 2” minutes. \‘dltl
he “felt much better after winning
the game l iiist want to go get
something to eat and go to straight
lit he‘d."

“lohn was so white and every—
thing. he looked like Casper the
Ghost. or sotriething," said l K
guard Derrick Miller. who scored
l5 points. "But I will tell you
something. John really gutted it
out tonight. We needed him and he
was there."

The (’ats (10-10 overall. (‘45 in
SEC) tised their inspiration to play
defense. l'K‘s full—court press
