Fraternities opening secondary I‘llSll

IF C survey finds
support for idea

By Carrie Morrison
Campw Editor

In the whirl of new students’ activi-
ties, some parts of campus life are over-
looked.

The Interfraternity Council will
open up rush a second time this fall to
appeal to new men who may have
missed it in their efforts to get adjusted
to UK.

“Some (men) are not as informed
about rush,” IFC president Jonathan
Bruser said. “They have other con-
cems.”

Normally, these measures are only
taken as a back—up recruitment effort if
fall rush is not successful. That was not

the case, Bruser said.

A survey of the 19 fraternity chap-
ters at UK revealed that about 494
pledges resulted from fall rush, an
average of 26 new men per fraternity.
All but two chapters expressed dissatis-
faction with the first rush efforts.

The survey presented the secondary
rush option, which was widely
approved.

Only two of the 19 chapters will not
be participating in secondary rush due
to “extremely large” recruitment num-
bers.

All chapters also were pleased with
IFC’s performance in rush efforts and
the quality of men who pledged.

“That’s a very good number,” Brus-
er said. “(Fall rush) was pleasing.”

According to IFC officials, sec-
ondary rush also is being offered to
encourage national IFC standards of

International Students learning ioothall

By Nyonowah Klah
Staff Writer

After 125 years, many Americans
don’t understand the rules of collegiate
football, and for those from other
countries, com rehending the game
can be twice as ifficult.

Tomorrow at 5 p.m., the Interna-
tional Students Office is sponsorin a
“Get To Know Football” workshop or
UK’s international students attending
Saturday’s game.

The workshop will include play-by-
pla instruction on the rules and pro-
ce ures of one of America’s favorite
pasttimes by Kyle Blair, a ph ical edu-
cation junior, and Charles olmes, a

retired professor from Transylva-
nia University.

The worksho ,
which is in its fourth ear, was coordi—

“(The workshop) is another way of

helping (international students) inter-

time learn a little more about Ameri-
can culture,” Holmes said.

As American football gains world-
wide recognition the workshop not
only helps the students here, it also
provides them with concepts that they
can carry home.

“Because a lot of international stu-
dents at UK often feel isolated during
their first semester, the workshop also
serves as an ice-breaker of sorts,” Zoch
said.

The group of about 85 students will
get to see theory in action with their
tickets to Saturdav‘s UK—Indiana game

Clinton delivers
ultimatum in address

WASHINGTON —— In a terse ultimatum from
the Oval Office, President Clinton told Haiti’s mil-
itary leaders last night, “Your time is up. Leave
now or we will force you from power."

Against a chorus of opposition, Clinton used a
prime-time address to bui d his case for an Ameri-
can invasion of Haiti to expel a military regime that
stole power and stands accused of 3,000 political
murders.

“We must act," Clinton said from the Oval

Office.
But he said that the United States’ mission in
Haiti would be “limited and specific” — to

“remove the dictators from power and restore
Haiti’s legitimate democratically elected govern-
ment.”

He said US. forces would help train a civilian
police force, but would not get involved in rebuild—
ing Haiti.

Claiborne enjoying
life as l/Vildcat mascot

By Brenna Reilly

Contributing Writer

Looking throu h the newspaper one day last
spring, physical education and health senior Brent
Claiborne saw an ad for tr 'outs for the UK mascot.

“I thought it sounded n,” he said. “I didn’t want
to have any re ets when leaving UK."

He played ootball for UK for five years, as a place
kicker. Now he wanted to try something different.

The candidates for mascot went through two days
of tryouts. The first day consisted of interviews, one-
arm-push-ups and a three— to five-minute skit. The
next day the candidates demonstrated crowd interac-
tion on campus.

Claiborne beat out the competition and was cho-
sen as the new UK mascot.

In preparation for football season, Claiborne tried
to work on gymnastics over the summer. A cheer-
leading camp also prepared Claiborne for his wildcat
debut. At the camp he worked with 45 other mascots
from around the country.

He accompanied the UK cheerleaders on a retreat
to Lake Cumberland. They spent the week water-ski— y > , , (

the year's biggest event of the law
school.”

The race is for charity — with
net proceeds going to the Media-

The center relies solely on
donations.

Sources of contribution range
from law firms to advertising
sponsors to this race’s application
fees.

So far, about 100 runners have
registered for the race.

Trophies will be awarded for
various age groups.

“We hope to have 200 run-
ners,” Stevens said.

Last year, the committee assed
that goal and raised about 1,500
for the center, said Jeff Stein,
chairman of the Race Judicata
Committee.

This year’s race is different
from previous years because it will
be entirely on a scenic cross-coun-
try course.

He said he hopes there will be a
large turnout to take advantage of
this opportunity.

Participants this year will be
from a mix of the UK and Lexing-

and individual runners.

“We hope to reach everybody,”
Stein said.

However, there is a minor

Celts playing best this weekend

By Doc Purcell
Senior Staff Writer

The UK volleyball team hasn’t
had much luck in tournaments this
season. It sports a paltry 1-7
record, with six of its losses com-
ing in tournament settings.

But this weekend, the Cats
hope to change all that as they
play host to the Kentucky Confer-
ence Challenge on Friday and Sat-
urda in Memorial Coliseum.

The Wildcats enter the week—
end fresh offa defeat at the hands
of seventh-ranked Ohio State and
are still searching for some much

needed confidence and experience.

And with a trio of talented
teams in Iowa, Montana and
George Mason coming to town
the Cats are well aware that now is
a good time to rid themselves of
tournament blues.

“They reall need to win,” UK
assistant coach Julie lbieta said.
“(The team) feels the ressure.
They are ready to win; tKey want
to win really badly.”

The task at hand this weekend
mirrors those that have faced the
Cats the first two tournaments, as
they will take part in a round-
robin tournament, playing three
