How sweet it is

The fresh
Prince of
UK

Unless you've been

 

hiding under a rock,
you know that the
Cats play in the
Sweet Sixteen
against USC tonight.
This is an interesting
match up because of
their coach, Henry
Bibby. That name
should sound familiar
if you remember the
l997 Championship
against Arizona and
their star player Mike
Bibby, who is the son
of Henry Bibby. Small
world, huh? That
gives the Cats and
their fans all the
more reason to want
to win. i know that
I'll be rooting for
them so I've
compiled a list of tips
and tricks to give the
Cats that extra
advantage.

Tubby needs to give
Tayshaun Prince the
go ahead to shoot
from anywhere on
the court after that
shot clock beater
from way downtown
he had near the end
of the lowa game.
Prince was smiling
big after that swish.

The Cats should employ
some Globetrotter
techniques like hiding
the ball under their
shirts and distracting
the referees with
comical pranks.

The Cats need to use a
2-3 backcourt man-
to-man defense with
a 1-2 press and blah,
blah, blah. That was
just 85 l have heard
on SportsCenter. Pay
no attention to me:
l'm a basketball idiot.

The parking office should
use all of that
parking ticket money
to send the entire
student body to all of
UK's tournament
games. I have a
feeling they can
cover it with money
to spare.

If any of the Cats get
into foul trouble,
they should give Sam
Bowie 3 jersey and
pull him from the
announcer's table.
That's a sure-fire
bet. My mom is a big
fan of his so that
should make her

happy.

The Cats should let USC
get ahead a few
points and then crush
their egos by
unleashing a fury of
3-pointers and ally-
oops, compliments of
Prince and Keith
Bogans.

One name, and it's a big
one: Heissenbuttel.
While all USC players
are still trying to
read his name, the
rest of the Cats can
dunk their way to
victory.

Lexington's ‘Limestone Mile’ still thriving

Taking care: Limestone merchants, entrepreneurs say the
street is ‘still in its heyday as a cultural haven'

By Paul Lel‘ghtty
CONTRlBUTlNG WRITER

Ever wonder what those odd~look-
ing structures are on Limestone Street.
where the street intersects with Euclid
Avenue and Third Street?

Retired UK history professor Ray
Betts calls them "the defining equiva-
lent of archways." and they're part of a
project he came up with a proposal for
last year.

The project. called the Millennium
Mile. was intended in part to highlight
the history of Limestone as a longstand-
ing cultural haven in Lexington.

Officially. this project is over; it
culminated in a festival last July.

Limestone. however. continues to
thrive. and people who own businesses

there say they think the street is still in
its heyday as a cultural haven.

if a defining characteristic of a col-
lege town is a “campus strip." then Lex-
ington has at least that much.

From obscure media and (,‘Ds. ec-
centric decorations and indian cuisine
to just a couple of beers. you can get it
somewhere on Limestone Street be-
tween 17K and Transylvania University.

And the connection between L'K and
Transylvania is something else Betts
wanted to highlight with the Millenni-
um Mile project.

"lt would be great if we could pull
the two schools together." Betts said.

Currently under construction
where Main and Vine streets intersect
Limestone are two new courthouses and
an adjoining plaza.

“i think it'll be quite
gorgeous once the court-
houses are finished."
Pat Gerhard. owner of
Third Street Stuff. said.

Area businesses
have also been working
to improve the appear-
ance and appeal of Lime-
stone Street.

The South Lime-
stone Association was formed as a mer-
chant's organization. including most of
the businesses from Kennedy‘s Book-
store to the corner of Limestone and
Maxwell.

The basic goal of the association
could be described as “cleaning up" the
area and making it more inviting. Carol
Behr. de facto president of the associa-
tion and owner of Kennedy‘s. said the
businesses were trying to improve the
area.

“We're trying to provide a safe. nice

Them—Student Fats—5335 at thenllniversityof-Kehtuc‘ky.Lexington

link between here and downtown."

While the association meets without
a regular schedule or formal constitu-
tion. it has been able get some things
done since it was formed about a year
and a half ago.

With the help of Dick DeCamp.
third district council member. and pub-
lic and private funds. the association
has brought in such improvements as
better lighting for the street and more
trash bins.

While DeCamp denied that the city
has refused any assistance to the associ~
ation's efforts. Behr did say that the
city has refused matching funds to re-
pair the sidewalk curbs and for other
projects.

For that kind of funding. the associ-
ation must become incorporated as a
neighborhood association. where the
expense would defeat the effort made.

“The city offered its stamp of ap-
proval. but no money." Behr said.

Fed signals it's ready to intervene

WASHINGTON »~ The Federal Reserve is
sending a strong signal that it stands ready to do
whatever is necessary to keep the economy from
falling into recession. That could include another
interest rate cut before the Fed's next meeting in
two months. Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan and
his colleagues slashed a key interest rate again
Tuesday. the third half-point reduction this year.
in an effort to keep the ailing economy afloat. In
doing so. the Fed worried about "substantial
risks" of prolonged economic weakness. Specifi-
cally it said production cuts by manufacturers
could continue for some time and that weak
economies around the world could become a fur-
ther drag on US. growth.

Macedonia ends artillery barrage

nouncement. artillery pounded the hills outside
in a joint army and police counteroffensive
against the insurgents camped outside Tetovo.
The military stopped its assault later in the
evening. and the calm held overnight and into
Wednesday morning. The army's ultimatum de~
manded that the “terrorists" stop fighting and
surrender or leave Macedonia. The military said
it would refrain from “offensive" actions until
midnight Wednesday. although it said it reserved

Bush moving to undo Clinton legacy

WASHINGTON e The Bush administration
is rescinding new standards for arsenic in drink-
ing water and proposing to lift new requirements
on mining interests as its latest challenges to en-
vironmental regulations issued during the final
days of the Clinton presidency. The Interior De-
partment’s Bureau of Land Management was an-
nouncing Wednesday it would seek to undo regu-
lations forcing more hard-rock miners in the
West to post cleanup bonds. The Environmental
Protection Agency, also responding to com-
plaints from mining interests. Tuesday suspend»
ed standards aimed at reducing the levels of can-
cer-causing arsenic in some 3,000 municipal wa-
ter systems, primarily in the Rocky Mountains.
Mining runoff has been identified as a major
source of arsenic contamination in drinking wa-
ter supplies.

Hext GDP tax cut: marriage penalty

WASHINGTON — House Republicans are
working on legislation that would go much fur-
ther than President Bush in easing the tax mar-
riage penalty and give families an immediate
break by raising the child tax credit effective for
this year. The measure, which was circulated in
draft form Tuesday night on Capitol Hill and ob
tained by The Associated Press. is likely to be
considered by the House Ways and Means Com-
mittee this week and reach the House floor next
week. Led by social conservatives, Republican
lawmakers have vowed to pass marriage penalty
relief much broader than Bush requested in his
10year. $1.6 trillion tax cut.

Bush repeals workplace regulations

WASHINGTON 7 President Bush signed a
repeal Tuesday of ergonomics rules. The mea-
sure sailed through Congress earlier this month
with help from business interests that criticized
the rules' cost and scope. The rollback was a big
political loss to labor unions, which had worked
for a decade in support of the regulations and
were caught flat-footed by Republicans‘ attack.
The regulations. issued late in the Clinton ad-
ministration, were aimed at preventing carpal
tunnel syndrome. tendinitis and other health
problems associated with repetitive motion.
awkward postures and contact stress.

WRFL gets fee increase;

will host public forum

Dy Andrew Grossman
ASSiSlAlll HEN: EDITOR

WRFL, the student-run
radio station located in the
Student Center. will hold a
public forum on Sunday to
explain why they asked for a

nominal increase in student
fees.

The station. which has
been open since 1988. finally
received approval on a $.75

increase in student fees.

nearly doubling the former

fee of $1.75.
“Student fees are basical-

ly the only income WRFL
has." said John Clark. who

chairs the WRFL Advisory
Council. “As you can imag-
ine. it‘s difficult to run a 24/7

radio station on a shoestring

budget."
When the

March 6 meeting to raise stu-
dent fees dramatically.
WRFL was one of the few
groups left out in the cold.
An ad-hoc committee was

created to decide if the Stu:

dent Center. the Student Ac-
tivities Board and WRFL
ought to receive their in-
creases.

However. within a week
the board finally agreed to
increase student fees for the
station.

This Sunday. WRFL will

Board of
Trustees decided at their

host a public forum to dis-
cuss the reasons for the fee
increase and the future plan
for the radio station.

"The station needs to im-
prove technical facilities and
prepare for staffing in the fu-
ture.” Clark said.

Among the other im-
provements. the station
wants to update their facility
so that the disc jockey can be
seen by students walking
through the Student Center.

As a noncommercial ra-

dio station. WRFL is re-”

quired by the FCC to hold a
public forum. Ensuring fu-
ture compliance with FCC
regulations is among the top
priorities for the station.

Despite being on the air
non-stop. WRFL will operate
on a budget of $94,000 with
the increase. Since WRFL is
not a commercial station.
nearly all of the funding
comes from student fees.

The increase of less than
a dollar may seem insignifi-
cant in a year when student
fees jumped from $168 to
$230.45. but Clark said the ra»
dio station feels accountable
to students.

“The primary market for
WRFL is the UK communiv
ty." he said. “and it's very
important that everyone on
campus is aware of what
we‘re doing.“

Males not a problem for feminists

A journey: Professor says students learn the
importance of understanding feminism

By Ashley York
isso‘tiui nighttime

Each semester l’at (‘ooper
passes out a questionnaire to
her introductory women‘s stud-
ies class to find out what pre
conceptions students have
about feminism.

Without fail. (‘oopeiz an (is
sociate professor of history and
women's studies. said the stir
dents define the theory “as a
group of white women who
hate men and who are out for
their own careerisrn."

iiut. by the end of the class
(‘ooper said the initial negative
thoughts change drastically for
both women and men.

“They see that feminists
are not man haters." she said of
society‘s pervasive ideology

about feminism. instead. (ioop-
er said feminists are people
against racism. sexism. homo-
phobia and any other type of
human oppression.

And they don't hate men.
in fact. (‘ooper said the quest
for human liberation helps
everyone.

"Ft?!“ililStS Wouldn‘t say
the proiileiii is men. because
it‘s not like they sit around and
calculate how to oppress." she
said.

instead. the calculate ways
to make everyone understand
the importance of feminism to
the world.

And (‘ooper strives to
bring this awareness to stu-
dents through the journey of
her course. On this journey.
she said students learn the im-

portance of understanding why
everyone should care about
this doctrine that advocates
women be granted the same
rights as men,

And even though many
would disagree. f‘ooper said
men play a role in every issue
concerning fern iriists,

"it‘s about iobs. corpora»
tioris. beliefs about sexuality.
race and motherhood and
men are a vital part of all of
these issues "

Although (‘ooper said fcmi»
nism should be of interest to
all. she doesn't deny the harsh
reality of society's negative
opinions about it. nor times she
blame anyone for the l't‘ttt‘f'llL‘
ring pessimism that act-onipa
nies feminism.

instead. she reasons with
those. usually among the power
status quo. who fail to accept
the beauty of feminism.

"The dominant group or
discourse will view anything

challenging as a threat and will
do everything in their power to
discredit. ridicule and mischar-
acierixe whatever group or
movement seems to be the
threat." (‘ooper speculated,

Keith Scliillo couldn't
agree more wrtli (‘oopeifi proba-
bly because he too is a feminist.

“You don‘t have to be a
woman to be a feminist." the
associate professor of animal
science said.

Schiiio pondered for a mo-
ment before explaining that
people possess such a negative
image about the full enfranr
chiseriient of women because
the acceptance of it in our soci-
ety would involve major social
change.

"And if put into practice.
the structure of the workplace.
language and the way people
socialize would have to
change." he said. “There's a lot
of resistance on both parts of
men and women."
