Ticket sales disappointing this season

After all they did: Students not taking
advantage of tickets after a series of
improvements all across the board

By Tracy Kershaw

An improved stadiutn.
two new ticket distribution lo-
cations aitd 2000 tnore student
tickets allotted than last year
have yet to produce an in
crease in student ticket sales.

“The ticket sales have
been disappointing this year."
commented Alvis Johnson.
UK Assistant Athletic liirec
tor.

Ticket sales have not de-
clined compared to last year.
but the expected increase in
sales has not occurred. (if the
12.000 student tickets avail
able each game. only 9000
were sold for the University of
Louisville game. 4500 for Uni
versity of (,‘onnecticut and
6")th for Florida.

Low numbers for the
Arkansas gatne are also ex-
pected due to It'K‘s‘ Fall Break
on the same weekend. said
Johnson

UK ticket woes are not an
isolated incident. Student at-
tendance has declined at
sporting events on a national

level. said IIK Athletic Direce
tor (YM. Newton.

Sales that are less than
full capacity still exist at UK
despite efforts to increase stu-
dent attendance.

Last spring. Johnson met
with various student leaders
on campus and asked their
suggestions as to how to in;
crease sales.

One. suggestion was that
more sites should exist for
ticket sales.

Itt response to this sugges-
tion. students can now also
purchase tickets at The (‘omv
mons on south campus and
Commonwealth Stadium in
addition to Memorial Colise»
um. where tickets were sold in
the past.

“Students suggested that
the new locations would make
it easier and more convenient
for them." said Johnson.

Students do agree that the
new sites make it tnuch easier
to get tickets.

"For the ﬁrst game. I wait-
ed two hours in line at Memo
rial Coliseum. But for the
U(.‘.onn game. I was able to get

good tickets with no wait at
(‘ottttttotts." said Nelly Little. a
special education sophomore.

Little said that she didn't
know it‘that will always be the
case. because part of the rea
son why she got good seats
was that not many people
know about the two new sites.

For instance. undeclared
freshman Nitya Narayan said
that she ltad no clue about the
new locations.

“l’ntil [today]. I didn‘t
know that I could buy my tick—
et at (‘ommons Now it will be
more convenient." she said.

Johnson is surprised that
students do not know about
the new locations.

“We sent out informative
brochures to every student at
the beginning of the year. We
have also ran several ads itt
student publications and the
information has been an
nounced over the PA. at foot-
ball games." he said.

Aside from the new two
sites. an additional effort to iti-
crease ticket sales was allow-
ittg students to use their PLITS
account to buy tickets. John-
son said.

However. ticket purchase
on the I’LI'S account is only
on a trial basis. Johnson
added. The continuation ittto
basketball season will be
based on student use during
football season. he said.

Putting the pieces
together

Other ticket news:

The Oct. 4 basketball lottery
has been changed due to
the ticket shipment not
being sent out to the
manufacturer until Oct. 6.
The lottery has been
rescheduled for 9 pm.
Monday, Oct. l8th at
Memorial Coliseum.

Games include:

California All Stars - Nov. 2

Athletes in Action - Nov. II

NIT lst round - Nov. I5

NIT 2nd round ' Nov. l7

(If UK loses in the first round,
bring tickets back for a
refund)

Newton hopes more stu
dents take advantage of the
opportunities l'l\' sporting
events ofl‘er.

“We‘ve got almost 12.000
tickets assigned for students.
and we really want them to
use them." he said.

“It's not appropriate to pe-

of supporting the use of public

includes shellacked clumps of

Local polluters face suit

New York, New Hampshire may sue if coal-
fired power plants don't clean up their act

ASSOCIATED PRESS

CONCORD. NH. New
Hampshire could join New
York in legal action against 17
power plants in the Midwest
and Southeast that are blamed
for acid rain and smog in the
Northeast.

New York Attorney Gener-
al Eliot Spitzer has sent out a
legal notice to 17 coal-fired
plants in Ohio. lndiana. Kett-
tucky. Virginia and West Vir»
ginia. saying if they don‘t
agree within two months to
clean up their emissions. New
York will sue.

Spitzer said the plants
have increased their power
output and made costly invest-
ments without also upgrading
their pollution control equip
ment. violating the federal
Clean Air Act.

However. the power plants
deny they have made the kind
of substantial improvements
that would trigger the require
ment to install better scrubbers
on their smokestacks.

"If what they are question-
ing is whether we have done
maintenance. yes. we have."
said Pat Hemlepp. a spokesman
for American Electric Power.
one of the companies threat-
ened with a lawsuit. "Have we
made improvements that would
increase capacity? N 0."

State Environmental Ser-
vices Commissioner Robert
Varney said the attorney gener-
al‘s office is evaluating New
York‘s legal arguments.

“We are seriously consider-
itig joining in the lawsuit with
New York." Varney said. “it‘s
under active discussion."

The decision to take legal
action against the power plants

comes after air pollution negog
tiations between the Northeast
em and Midwestern states
broke down.

The Northeastern states
say power plants here are
forced to meet tough emissions
standards because the states all
have high levels of smog on the
ground.

Some of that is generated
locally. However. scientific re-
search shows that much of the
pollution generated by coal
plants in the Midwest rides the
upper air currents to the North
east.

The Midwestern states dis-
agree, saying the Northeastern
states are responsible for most
of their own smog. The older
power plants in the Midwestern
states are not required to meet
tough standards because the
states themselves do not have
high levels of ground-level pol-
lution.

The courts have urged com-
promise. But when talks failed.
New York decided to sue 17
power plants directly.

“We weren‘t asking the up-
wind states to do anything that
we haven‘t already done in
New Hampshire." Varney said.
“We‘re asking them to control
nitrogen oxides from their pow~
er plants just as New Hamp-
shire has done at its (coalﬁred)
plants in How and
Portsmouth."

()hio power plants produce
nearly 9.000 tons a day of sulfur
dioxide. which causes acid
rain. That is nearly twice as
much as all the New England
states. New York and New Jer~
sey combined. according to the
national Emtironniental I)e-
fense Fund. a nonprofit group.

Federal emissions records
show that one plant in Ohio
emits more smogproducing iii-
trogen oxide than all of the
dozen or so coal—fired plants in
New York State.

if the lawsuits are filed. it
would be the first time a state
