Fun facts

Do you
know the
buffalo?

0 If you think Frisbees

were invented in the
l960s, you're wrong
- by about a
hundred years.
Children on the
Oregon Trail threw
Frisbee-like devices
back in the mid-
18005. but they
weren't made of
plastic. They were
made of buffalo
dung.

iv During the great

western migration,
the entire Great
Plains region was
covered with buffalo
chips. Kids
occasionally tossed
them about in a
Frisbee-like manner,
but the chips had a
much more practical
purpose for the
emigrants. They
were burned for
fuel.

There was no

firewood along much
of the Trail, so the
only alternative was
dried buffalo dung.
Even though the
pioneers were
hardy, they didn't
enjoy gathering up
bushels of chips
every night.

' The chips burned

surprisingly well and
produced an odor-
free flame. Usually,
each family had its
own campfire, but
sometimes everyone
contributed their
chips for one big
bonfire.

Some funny
clean jokes

A man decides to paint

the toilet seat,
while his wife is
away. His wife
comes home sooner
than expected, sits,
and gets the seat
stuck to her rear.
She is
understandably
distraught about
this and asks her
husband to drive her
to the doctor.

She puts on a large

overcoat so as to
cover the stuck
seat, and they go.
When they get to
the doctor's, the
man lifts his wife's
coat to show their
predicament.

The man asks, "Doctor,

have you ever seen
anything like this
before?"

"Well, yes," the doctor

replies. "but never
framed."

Cancer
center
receives

$2M gift

Children's Miracle network
also donates monetary gift
to Markey Cancer Center

By Mark Vanderholf
STAFF WRITER

Research at the UK Markey Cancer
Center received a $2 million boost yesterv
day from the McDowell Cancer Founda-
tion. resulting in the formation of two
more endowed chairs.

The gift will match another $2 million
from the Kentucky Research Challenge
Trust Fund.

“The funding of these endowed
chairs demonstrates a major commit-
ment of the McDowell Foundation. the
Markey Cancer Center and the Universi-
ty of Kentucky to be at the front line of
the development and application of new
technologies.“ UK President Charles
Wethington said.

The Markey Cancer Center will have
a total of three endowed chairs now; the
original one was established with a $1
million matching gift from Lucille Parker
Markey.

The Markey Cancer Center recently
outlined specific areas in which to extend
research and will build a Women's Can~
cer Facility.

Dr. Ben Roach. chairman of the Mc-
Dowell Cancer Foundation. said the facil~
ity will open in two years.

Breast and gynecologic cancers. a pri-
mary area of study at Markey. have been
targeted for future development.

Linda Worthington of Lexington is
participating in a trial treatment for
breast cancer using an antibody vaccine.

She said the cancer and resulting
treatments have drained her emotionally
and physically.

"I get really tired." Worthington said.
“I‘m only 53. much too young to die.“

Molecular genetics research led to
the identification of a growth factor re-
ceptor for breast cancer. which is target-
ed by the antibody Worthington takes.
said Ilde Meyer. lab tech principle.

Dr. Ed Romond and Ilde Meyer are

Administrator assures board
that all computer systems
will be compliant

By James Ritchie

CAMPUS EDITOR.

An administrator assured the UK
Board ofTrustees yesterday that L'K‘s com—
puter systems would be ready for the year
2000.

"We started thinking about this a long
time ago." said Eugene Williams. UK vice
president for Information Systems. “We
didn‘t just recently start preparing for
this,”

17K has already spent 813.6 million to
repair and replace equipment that might be
affected by the “Y2K bug." he said. The Uni-
versity will probably spend $1 to $2 million
more. But some of that money would have
been spent even without the Y2K bug.
Williams said.

"Not all of that is throwaway costs." he
said. "If you were to go in and analyze that.
much of the money is going for equipment
we would have been replacing anyway."

According to Williams. the University
has set up a Year 2000 Project office. involv-
ing hundreds of people. Correcting prob
lems in I.‘K‘s core computer systems will
involve making changes in eight million
lines of code written in the programming
language COBOL.

In addition to correcting its own sys-
tems and testing the changes. Williams said
L'K also must know whether all of the out-
side systems its computers interact with
including 700 suppliers and receivers
will be year 2000 compliant as well.

A discussion between
WVTQ anchor John Lindgren
and journalism professor Maria
Braden over Lindgren‘s in-
volvement in the Celebrate Je-
sus 2000 campaign was held yes»
terday in the Grehan Building.

Celebrate Jesus 2000 is a
campaign to bring the gospel
into every home in Fayette
County by the year 2000. Lind-
gren. who is also the chairman.
spoke at a prayer and praise ral-
ly at Heritage Hall three weeks
ago in support of the campaign.

Braden. who teaches ethics
in the School of Journalism and
Telecommunications. is con-
cerned that Lindgren's high
profile involvement in the cam-
paign will compromise his ob-
jectivity as a journalist.

"I think it‘s impossible for
journalists to do that (be in-
volved) and still try to maintain
the public's opinion that you
are giving them the news about

anything." she said.

Journalists can be active in
their communities through the
stories they write. Braden said.

Braden said she held her-
self accountable to this stan-
dard during her years as a field
reporter.

“One of the most frustrating
things about being a reporter
was that I couldn‘t be involved
in the community." she said.

Lindgren said he failed to
see any conflict between his
role in Celebrate Jesus 2000 and
his job as a journalist. As proof
he cited the lack of complaints
regarding his religious activi
ties. He also pointed out that
his involvement in the cam-
paign was on his own time.

“To say journalists can‘t be
involved in the community on
their own time is unthinkable.
it’s like living in a glass cage."
he said.

He agreed that journalists
must be selective of the issues
they become involved in.

Most L'K students had no

problem with Lindgren‘s lead-
ership role in Celebrate Jesus
2000 as long as it remained sep»
arate from his job.

"You have a public life and
a private life." said Angel
McGinty. an advertising senior.
“You can't compromise either
one for the other."

“Everyone has the right to
support their opinions as long as
they don't force, their opinions
on others." said Regina .\IcI.au~
rine. an advertising senior.

The idea that journalists
are expected to be objective is
ridiculous said Kevin Hale. an
economics senior.

"it‘s impossible to give up
your beliefs because of the job
you choose." he said.

The issue of religious perse-
cution. both by Lindgren and of
Lindgren. emerged in the dev
bate. Remarks from audience
members. to each other and the
two debaters. became heated
and personal.

Brad James. weatherman at

Journallsts debate ethics

of Braden referring to her as the
“self-appointed Reverend Moth-
er" ofjournalistic integrity.

Afterwards attendees gath-
ered in the hallway to critique
the debate.

“We live in a political and
secular world." said Shiv
Bakhshi. a professor in the
School of Journalism and
Telecommunications. “If he
(Lindgren) can't see that then
that it his problem."

Travis Meacham. a
telecommunications senior. felt
Lindgren avoided many of the
issues.

“i thought he picked his
battles carefully. He kept re.
turning to his original argu-
ment and looping around the
new issues." he said.

“I happen to agree with
Maria Braden." said Amanda
Sherrod. a journalism senior. “I
think (the debate) got away
from the main issue and into a
personal attack. More would
have been resolved if they had
stayed with the main issue."

After seven years, Michael Johnathon and
Poetman Records are still rockin’ and rollin'

By Danielle Marie Dove
SENIOR STAFF WRITE—R

When folk musician
Michael Johnathon began Poet-
Man Records USA in 1991. he
had no idea that seven years
later his record label would still
be intact and supporting his ca-
reer.

“This is something that
looks and acts and feels like a
real record label." Johnathon
said. “I have a guitar case in
one hand and a briefcase in the
other.“

After a jaunt with the big
time. Johnathon decided to pre-
serve his individuality and folk
music by establishing his own
record label. PoetMan Records
USA was .lohnathon's venture

to stay a folk singer. Like John
Prine and Ani DiFranco.
Johnathon took control of his
career to save his art.
Johnathon's passion for
folk music. with its emphasis
on earthy people. has encour-
aged him to follow his own path
and stand behind his record
company. Johnathon's nation-
ally distributed record compa-
ny is the only one in the state.

Johnathon said traveling in
support of folk music is nothing
elegant: limited audience and
outdoor shows make it difficult
to sell out performances. In
1993. Johnathon and film-maker
friend Jim Piston decided it
was time to change the perfor-
mance format for folk musi‘

clans by playing acoustic shows
in downtown settings.
Johnathon scraggled together
six concerts. giving birth to the
Troubadour Concert Series.
Since then. the all-volunteer
run. community-based series
has sponsored more than 100
concerts. including artists such
as Bela Fleck and the Fleck-
tones. These performances are
held at the Kentucky Theatre
and at the Paramount Arts Cen-
ter in Ashland.

Johnathon‘s energy does
not stop there. While PoetMan
is a growing business and its
records can be found in stores
from Wal-Mart to Disc Jockey.
Johnathon has found time to
produce the Kentucky Wildcat
Basketball Experience. a 39-
track CD that serves as a trib-
ute to UK's Pep Band. This CD
contains narration by Cawood
Ledford. songs played during

“In the back seat of my
Chev ro » let. where my ra-
dio would play-ee-ay-ay!"

l heard these words
screamed by Sebastian Bach
himself and had to. at that mo-

Dead as the nails strewn

The sample lyrics above are
from a previously unreleased
Skid Row tune called “Forever"

As the title indicates. this
CD is a greatest hits joint
which leads perfectly to my
next point that whether you
