Gibler bows out of race

their future plans.

F ormer candidate throws support to Jones

 

By Lance Williams
News Editor

The race for the top spot in the
Student Government Association
became a little less crowded yester-
day as Krista Gibler announced
that she is dropping out of the race
to support two-time candidate T.A.
Jones.

“This has been a hard campaign.
It's had many ups and downs, but
through it all we hope UK has real-
ized that changes must take place
in SGA," Gibler said.

She criticized the SGA for be-
coming a “bank" for student organ-
izations, a “resume builder" for the
members and an “elitist organiza-
tion ostracizing those they are sup-
posed to represent.“

Jones said he was “excited" to
have Gibler and running mate Eric
Smith supporting on his campaign.
The two candidates met and decid-

ed on Thursday night that Gibler
would end her campaign and be-
come part of Jones' campaign.

“Our platforms and our ideas
were similar," Jones said. “Instead
of fighting each other, we want to
work together.

We were talking about
the election, and we real—
ized that we didn‘t want
these other yahoos to get
in there."

Gibler said joining
Jones' campaign was the
best way to see some of
her ideas implemented
next year in SGA.

“Personally, I believe _,
that they are the only hope
for UK." Gibler said in a
prepared statement.

“They have the vision, the moti-
vation and the charisma to make
UK the best student service univer-
sity in the nation.

 

GIBLER '

“Their ideas and rationale have
always been similar to ours. When
approaching them, they have been
open-minded, knowledgeable and
considerate."

Jones said he believed Gibler
supporters will join him in the cam-
paign, as well.

“She realized that her
vote could push us over the
top," Jones said, who add-
ed the endorsement of Gi-
bler was a “major boost"
for his campaign.

“Gibler and us, we're the
only two that aren‘t insid-
ers," Jones said.

. “We decided as a team
that we are going to do it."
Jones said he hasn‘t of-
fered Gibler an SGA posi-
tion if he wins the election.

“If they want to help out, that‘s
fine," said Jones, who said he has
talked to other candidates about

“With most of the rest of them,
it‘s either an all-or-nothing thing,"
Jones said.

Gibler has had several bumps
along her campaign, which began
with an unofficial announcement
near the end of last semester.

In the first week of March, she
was arrested for slapping her boy-
friend after a party.

In addition, a campaign worker
who was gathering signatures to
help her get placed on the ballot
was fired for illegally collecting
signatures from students in the Mar-
garet I. King MircoLabs.

SGA Elections Board chairman
Brian Shrensker said he will call the
company that will provide the vot-
ing machines tomorrow to get Gi-
bler‘s name removed from the bal-
lot.

If it is removed, the other candi-
dates‘ names will remain in the
same positions.

Staff report

 

Student Government Associa-
tion elections are scheduled for
this Wednesday and Thursday.
and the presidential campaigns
are gearing up the for the final
days of the 1994 campaigns.
Here is an alphabetical listing of
the plans for each presidential
ticket for the last couple of days.

T. A. Jones-Benny Ray Bai-
Iey

The duo of Jones and Bailey
will continue to make campaign
stops during the next two days
and will hold forums across cam-
pus.

Jones said he is planning to
hold a march on either Wednes-
day or Thursday from the Kir-
wan-Blanding Complex to the
Student Center or vice-versa to
show unity among his supporters.

He said plans had not been fi-
nalized, but he said having a
couple of hundred people in the
march would be a successful
event.

He is also planning to have a
phone bank at an off-campus lo-
cation to get students interested
in voting.

Tracy Rogers-Mark Eng-
strom

Former SGA president Scott
Crosbie endorsed the Rogers
ticket yesterday, saying that the
foremost reason for his support
was the pair‘s concern with the
Kentucky General Assembly.
their effort to get funding for
UK's new library and projects in
the UK Community College Sys-
tern.

Rogers called the Crosbie en-
dorsement “a big deal."

She said her campaign will
hold a final meeting tomorrow
night at 9 pm. at either the Kap-
pa Alpha social fraternity house
or the Kappa Alpha Theta social
sorority house.

 

 

 

Clinton tries diplomacy in Bosnia

 

By John Diamond
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The United
States will respond militarily if
asked by the UN. conunander in
Bosnia, President Clinton said yes-
terday, but added, “We have a dip-
lomatic role and we are doing our
best to fulfill it."

Clinton, speaking to reporters at
Newport News-Williamsburg Inter-
national Airport in Virginia, said
that UN. negotiations with the war-
ring factions in Bosnia had regis-
tered “some progress.“

 

He pointed to the release yester-

day of 16 Canadian soldiers, who
were among more than 150 UN.
peacekeepers being kept under vir-
tual house arrest by Bosnian Serbs.

“They are trying to hammer out
an agreement that everyone can live
with," Clinton said of the UN. ne-
gotiators.

“We have a diplomatic role and
we are doing our best to fulfill it."

Asked if there would be further
US. military involvement in Bos-
nia. Clinton said, “It depends on the
UN. commander on the ground."

Earlier yesterday, the us. special
envoy to Bosnia said the adminis-
tration foresees no escalation of
NATO military power in Bosnia de-

spite a tactical victory by Serbian
forces around Gorazde.

“We're going to have to find
some way to negotiate our way out
of this," Ambassador Charles Red-
man said on NBC‘s “Meet the

Redman‘s comments came as
Bosnian Serbs said they were end-
ing the siege of Gorazde but sent
tanks into the Muslim enclave.

Redman said the Serbs control
the Gorazde pocket “militarily and
tactically," while the city itself re-
mains in Bosnian hands.

Also yesterday. Sen. Joseph Bid-
cn, D-Del., the second-making
Democrat on the Senate Foreign

Relations Committee, said UN.
forces should pull out of Bosnia
and the United States should lift
the arms embargo there. And for-
mer Secretary of State Henry Kis-
singer said the Serbs have almost
everything they want.

“I don't think we have a military
option," Kissinger said.

Ejup Ganic, vice president of the

Republic of Bosnia, portrayed the
fight around Gorazde as a Serbian
victory.

“It is just as tragic as you can im-
agine," Ganic said on ABC's “This
Week With David Brinkley." He

Student proud
of Singapore’s
stand on crime

 

By D.A. Carroll
Contributing Writer

 

Shafie Ahmad Zin came to the
United States from Singapore in
1989.

He‘s lived in Wisconsin, he‘s
been to New York City and he‘s
visited a couple of other metropoli-
tan sprawls.

This 28-year-old communications
teaching assistant knows that urban
crime plagues these areas, but, com-
ing from a land that has little toler-
ance for lawbreakers, Zin also
knows something about preven-
tion.

It‘s all about consequences, he
says.

Falter Michael Pay, the 18-year-
old Ohio man who was arrested in
Singapore recently for defacing au-
tomobiles, an infi'action that is pun-
ishable by six skin-searing lashes
with a bamboo cane.

Some Americans argue the scn~
tence is much too harsh for more

-Sunny and miid today; high in the mid-70s.
'lncreeslng clouds tonight with a 30 percent chance at

«Cbudy with a 30 percent of showers tomorrow; high in the

act of juvenile delinquency. Zin
sees it differently.

“Let me give you a description of
my country." Zin says as he takes
postcards from a desk drawer.

His postcards show a city at night,
sparkling with majestic beauty.

“It's an island city. It‘s clean. It‘s
drug free.

It‘s crime free — relatively
speaking." Zin says. “Our laws are
very strict.“

“It would make big, big news if
there‘s a murder."

Zin considers his country‘s pun-
ishments, such as canings adminis-
tered by martial artists, effective
deterrents for potential wrongdoers.

And although caning has been
perceived as a brutal practice by
human rights activists, there are
some misconceptions, Zin said.

The martial artist's job is not to
hurt the subject. only to apply the
punishment, he said.

The lashes are to only strike the

Fellows celebrate
10th anniversary
of Gaines Center

 

By Trent Knuckles
Staff Writer

 

About 39 people enjoyed a
luncheon Friday at the Bingharn
Davis House on Maxwell Avenue
in celebration of the 10th anniver-
sary of the Gaines Center for the
Humanities.

The luncheon was one of several
events that took place during the
day.

Ray Betts, who has served as di-
rector of the Gaines Center since
its inception, said the Gaines pro-
gram has been a successful endeav-
or.

“We have a good thing going.
and we would like to refine it,"
Betts said.

Betts, a history professor, ex-
plained that the center is unique to
state universities.

“To the best of my knowledge,
we are the first in the country,”
Betts said.

At the celebration, honorary fel-
lowships were given to John R. and
Joan B. Gaines who endowed the
program.

The Gaines program encourages
participation in the study of public
issues and the humanities.

Gaines fellowships are given out
to undergraduate students who are
outstanding academically and show
interest in the humanities.

Junior fellows receive $1,000 for
participating in a multi-disciplinary
seminar.

Fellows in their senior years in-
dependently work and research for
a thesis that is written on a topic in

the humanities.

For their work, they receive
$1.500.

Ten two-year fellowships are
awarded each year.

At the celebration. Ghada Qaisi,
a graduating fellow, thanked those
in the Gaines program for her ex-
periences at the center.

“I am very fortunate to have
been a part of all of this,“ Qaisi
said.

To show her gratitude, Qaisi pre-
sented the program with two brass
horsehead bookends.

“I have a shelf picked out for
those,” she said.

Qaisi held a discussion later in
the day on her thesis topic, “Wom-
en of the Intafada: Crisis and So-
cial Change,” along with junior
Gaines Fellow Don Puckett who
discussed “The Nuremberg Trials
in Consideration of Natural and
Positive Law.”

Betts also pointed out that the
center is beginning a staff travel
scholarship for faculty to fund
study away from the University.

Other events included the pres-
entation of a group project by
Steve Allen and Amy Richardson,
titled “The Dictionary of Famous
Kentucky Quotations," and the in-
troduction of the 1994-95 Gaines
Fellows.

Selected as fellows for the 1994-
95 and 1995-96 academic years
were Jane Ann Bardin, Kelly Chin-
en, Ann Hendricks, Julie Lips-
chultz, Julie Marrett, Jason Renzel-
mann, Evan Reynolds, Laurie
Warnecke, Delmar Watkins, Ame-
lia Weinfurtner and Avi Weitzman.

UK, city sponsor
arboretum fest

 

By Cella Love

The windy weather didn‘t keep
hundreds of people from increasing
their awareness on environmental
issues and their knowledge of gar-
dening and tree care this weekend.

On Saturday, the UK and Lex-
ington-Fayette Urban County Gov-
ernment sponsored Arbor Day at
the UK Arboretum — an educa-
tional and family fun day with
speakers and special events.

Upon their arrival, participants
received free blue spruce seedlings
toplant at home.

The arboretum provided some
form of entertainment for everyone
among the three tented areas that
housed displays, children’s activi-
ties and speakers.

The man with the red suspend-
ers, Roger B. Swain, host of PBS-
TV’s popular horticulture show
“The Victory Garden," was the fea-
tured speaker.

“I see gardening as a collection
of skills to be used to solve the
world’s problems instead of being
just a means to escape and get
away from the world’s problems,"
Swain said.

To stress environmental aware-
ness, Swain suggested distributing
bumper stickers that read “Com-
post Happens."

More than 25 people who didn’t
mind the mud preferred mind over
matter as they accompanied Julian
Campbell from the Nature Conser-
vatory on an educational tree walk.

Participants learned that, at least
“spiritually," the coffee tree is the
state tree of Kentucky, Campbell
said.

Kentucky Utilities demonstrated
the dangers of mixing trees and
electric lines. Tree pruning, plant-
ing and professional tree climbing
followed KU’s demonstration.

Smokey the Bear was on hand to
entertain children of all ages. In the
children's activities tent, bat bud-
dies, bee-keeping and birds of prey
provided entertainment.

The multi-million dollar arbore-
tum is a joint effort of UK and the
Lexington-Fayette Urban County
Government. The first phase was
completed in l99l.

Arbor Day was made possible by
a joint effort between Lexington
Tree Board and the Friends of the
Arboretum.

Upcoming arboretum events will
be a plant exchange on May 14 and
an exhibit titled “Art in the Arbore-
tum" on J une ll.

WASHINGTON — Support-
ers of a ban on assault weapons
are 15 to 20 votes short in the
House of Representatives, a key
congressman said yesterday.

In the latest head count by
House Democratic leaders, a bill
banning assault-style weapons
such as Uzis and AK—47s is shy
of a majority, raising the pros
poet of a major disagreement be-
tween the House and Senate on
anti-crime legislation.

“I find it very surprising with
all the mayhem going on in the
streets,“ Rep. Charles Schumer,
D-N.Y., said in an interview
Sunday. “The House voted
against an assault weapons ban
two years ago, but a lot has
changed since then."

Schumer is chairman of the
House Judiciary subcommittee

 

on crime and leading sponsor of
the assault weapons ban.

The Senate last fall passed a $22
billion crime bill that included the
weapons ban.

The House version, scheduled
for continued debate this week, has
no ban.

Differences between House and
Senate bills are common. But if the
disagreement packs enough politi-
cal weight, it can sink an entire
bill.

Schumer said aggressive lobby-
ing by the National Rifle Associa-
tion is behind the soft support for
the assault weapons ban in the
House.

“Members kept coming to me
and saying, ‘book, I voted for the
Brady bill. I thought it was the
right thing to do and the gun lobby
came down very hard on me and I
can't vote against them,’ ” Schu-
mer said.

Schumer himself has been a tar-
get of NRA lobbying, including a

Assault Weapon ban short
only a few votes in House

full-page ad in USA Today that la-
beled him “the criminal's best
friend in Congress."

The NRA was closed yesterday
and a spokesman for the lobbying
group could not be reached.

The Brady bill, signed into law
last year, created a five-day waiting
period and procedure for back-
ground checks on people seeking
to buy a handgun.

Sen. Joseph Biden. D-Del. and
chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Committee, said Sunday that he
will insist that the final crime bill
ban assault weapons.

“I want a crime bill with assault
weapons (banned) in it," Biden
said on NBC’s “Meet the Press."
“I will not trade off anything for
that."

One reason the House crime bill
lacks the assault weapons provision
is the opposition of Rep. Jack
Brooks, D-Texas. the chairman of
the House Judiciary Committee.

Schumer and other House mem-

bersarelnpingtogetavoteon
the weapons ban as a wparate
bill. If it passes, House-Senate ne-
gotiators working on the crime
bill would probably include the
ban in the final version, Schumer
said.

If the House defeats the ban,
the negotiators would have to re-
solve the differences between the
House and Senate bills.

Schumer said he was disclosing
the head count in hopes of gener‘
ating calls and letters to lawmak-
ers from constituents who support
the assault weapons ban.

Rep. Bill McCollum, R-Fla.,
also a member of the crime sub-
committee, said he might accept a
crime bill containing an assault
weapons ban but adtbd, “I don’t
think that‘s the issue.“

Appearing on NBC, McCollum
said, “It’s like a police officer
told me in Michigan the other
day: The problem isn't repeating
rifles, it’s repeating offenders."
