683,000 women
raped in 1990,
new report finds

By CAROLYN SKORNECK
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A goveni-
ment-funded study released yesten
day found 683,000 Americzur wom-
en were raped in 1900 — a far
higher number than other govem-
rnerrt reports have said — and that
12.1 million women have been rape
victims at least once.

In addition, the National Worn-
en's Study said almost 62 percent
of the rape victims said they were
attacked when they were minors.
with about 29 percent saying they
were younger than 1 1.

"Rape does seem to be a tragedy
of youth in America.“ said Dean
Kilpatrick. who directed the rc~
search zutd is co-author of the re-
port. “Rape in America."

The study. funded by the Nation-
al Institute on Drug Abuse. iri-
volved female interviewers talking
to some 4,000 women by telephone
about rapes in the previous year and
earlier

The survey also found that:

~Uf the estimated 12.1 million
women who have been raped. about
6.8 million were raped once. 4.7
million more than once and about
600.000 were urtsure of the number
of times.

fl‘wenty-nine percent of perpetra-
tors were non-relatives known to
the victim. such as neighbors or
friends. Twenty-two percent were
suangers: 16 percent were relatives
other than immediate family: 11
percent father or stepfather: 10 per-
cent boyfriend or err-boyfriend and
0 percent husband or ex-husband.
Three percent were not sure or re-
fused to answer.

Seventy percent of rape victims
were unharmed. while 2-1 percent
suffered minor injuries and 4 per-
cent were seriously hurt. The stir-

vey did not account for rape-murder
victims.

°Rape victims‘ most important
concents after the assault were the
family finding out. being blzuned by
others for the attack. and others
knowing about it. Those worries de-
clined slightly iunong those raped
in the last five years. Brit there were
increased fears of having their
rirune become public. getting A11‘)S
zutd other sexually-transrnitted dis-
eases and becoming pregnant.

The study‘s estimate of 683.000
forcible rapes in 1000 w based on
rut estimate of 0,7 percertt of the
adult female population _, was
more than five times larger than the
National (‘rirne Srirycy figure o1
130.000 attempted and completed
tapes that year.

And the N(‘S has long been
viewed by crirninologists as a much
better gauge ofcrirne than the l'lihs
Uniform (‘riine Reports. which said
102.560 rapes were reported to po-
lice iti 1000.

But Kilpatrick told a news con.
ferertce that the 1131 figure. corri-
bined with the surveys findings
that only 16 percent oi r‘apc \ictims
tell police about the attack. supports
the study's estimate o1 6.0.000
rapes. the math almost works: to
percent of 683.000 is 100.30.
slightly higher than the 1131‘s re

higher figures directly.

 2 - Kentucky Kernel, Monday. April 27, 1992

UK recruits
are every bit
as good as
they look

 

Ernest
WRENTMORE

LOUISVILLE, Ky. —— Silky
Smooth. Slinky Salivation and
Scrappy Sweet aren‘t as well—
known as Arazi. A. P. Indy or Pine
Bluff. but next year‘s incoming UK
thoroughbreds briefly stole the
spotlight frotn next week's winner
of the 118th Kentucky Derby while
prancing about Freedom Hall and
having fun.

After putting on a weekend of
entertainment at the 1992 Ken-
lucky Derby Festival, Tony Delk.
Walter McCarty and Jared Prickett
were wearing garlands of roses in
the fonn of accolades while cheers
were thrust upon them from Wild-
cat fans and anxious media.

The three played on the stune
tctun for the first time and. at first.
were somewhat unsure about
speaking with the media Iiriday
night. But after they were treated to
several rounds of applause by UK
fans, they were bubbly. It was al~
most as if they were supposed to be
under an invisible cone of silence.
But like Mr. Ed. the silence of the
ponies cracked once they realized
what they had really gotten them-
selves into.

Referring to the zany fans. Delk
said “I really liked what I saw.
That‘s one reason I signed with
Kentucky."

Another reason was that he was
dyirtg to get into UK coach Rick
Pitino‘s machine-gun offense.

Delk is Silky-Smooth: he‘s the
grace of Seattle Slew.

His jump shot and body control
are as soft as baby powder on a
rash. In the game. he sank only one
of II field goals en route to three
points and three assists. but he was
never fazed and his confidence
never wavered.

“I thought I was pressing my-
self." Delk said. “I passed off well.
but I tried to be too impressive,"

The 6-foot—2 shooting guard‘s
quick release enables him to sink a
jump-shot off one dribble better
than Derrick Miller — or anyone
else. for that matter. Like Miller.
Delk is Streaky. However. he only
seems to have hot streaks — he
didn’t have any empty hinges lirr-
day where he missed more than
three or four in a row.

In the semi—finals of the three-
point shooting contest, he made 16
treys in one minute — seven con-
secutively.

Silky Smooth. who bowed out to
Keith Kurowskr m the finals of the
three-point contest. passes well.
has good hands and good speed.
Ilc shouldn‘t have trouble getting
better defensively.

McCarty is Slinky Salivalion‘.
he‘s the explosion in Secretariat.

It was cruel to watch him and
know he won‘t play next year.
Md‘arty is a Proposition 48 casu.
alty because he lacks a core curric-
trlutn math course. lie scored I4
points — I2 in the first 15 minutes
of the game — and grabbed I I re-
bounds. Slinky Salivation probably
would have been named the MVP
ot the game if he would have taken
more than one shot in the second
half.

Fans salivated like St. Saint Ber-
rrards. watching McCartys wiry
body slink inside and out. A couple
of fans behind the said they
thought McCarty would be an All-
American after they saw him step
inside the three-point arc and drill a
baseline jumper. Before that. he
juked a defender and drove the
baseline for a dunk.

Ile said the year off would be
good “so I can get stronger and
bigger.“

But McCarty‘s yearlong hiatus
may put some fans in the hospital,
Their tongues were hanging otrt
and surrounded by foam. McCarty
may "have discovered a new
weight-loss system: make fans sali-
vate for I7 months until every drop
of water leaves their bodies. He
also finished second in the slam-
dunk competition. He‘ll be worth
the wait, Trust me.

Jared Prickett is Scrappy Sweet;
he's the determination and hustle
of Bold Forbes.

Almost every baseball tetun
suffers through a slump at one
point iii the season.

But suffer doesn‘t escn begin
to describe what the ITK Bat (‘ats
have gone through.

'Ihe (‘ttts are cun'ently fighting
off a spell which has seen them
lose nine of their last I-l games
and fall from first place in the
Southeastern Conference‘s littst-
ern Division. In the process. UK
has all btrt washed away its red-
hot 26-6 start and HS national

reassess his squad‘s agenda. 'l he

meeting for Sunday morning W a
meeting he chose not to attend.

 

Outfielder Pookie Jones pops up in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against Vanderbilt.
Jones returned Sunday to collect three hits in UK‘s 13-2 win yesterday.

Instead. Madison decided to let
his players discuss the direction
of the team.

Whatever was said in that
meeting must have worked.

With their backs to the prover-
bial wall. the (Tats bounced back

pletc game frorn pitcher Scott

dores I3-2 and re—establishcd
some much-needed confidence.

Madison wasn’t sure if the
meeting had a direct influence on
the team‘s perfonnance. but was
pleased with the results nonethe-
less,

“I cttllcd the team mcctrng. but
I thought it would be better to let
them get together and work it out
themselves." Madison said.
“Then this morning we all got to-
gether and worked on a game
plan for today. I don‘t know
which was responsible for our

play today.

“One thing I could see was our
tezun played with a lot more con-
fidence. They looked like they
believed in themselves."

A tezun's confidence always
improves when it gets a corn-
mandirrg performance from its
pitcher. Smith. a junior right-
hander. gave the (‘ats the biggest
lift they could ask for. lie al-
lowed only four hits and struck
out rtinc (‘ommodore batters in
improving to 5-4 on the season.

“Scotty pitched great." Madi-
son said. “IIe really picked up the
tezun with his pitching today. He
was in total control ol the game,

“((ictting ahead of the hitters)
was the key tor Scotiy. He threw
strikes early III the cotrrrt and was
able to use the breaking ball as an

Newest varsity team
has first scrimmage

By MARK SONKA
Stall Writer

1116 UK women‘s soccer team
kicked off Saturday's Blue-White
Day festivities with a I2 p.m. intra-
squad game at (‘age Field. The
White team won 5-2 behind fresh-
man fullback Jody Sheehan's two
goals.

The scrimmage served as a pre—
view to next season's varsity-level
squad, which will include only eight
retuming players from this year‘s
13-6 club team. The Lady Kats may
add up to 20 new players in the fall.

“We‘re going to have a very. very
young team," said Warren Lipka.
the new head coach brought in to
build the first year varsity program.
“The oldest player we‘ll have will
be a junior. The rest (will be) in-
coming freshmen and sophomores.

“I know there will be eight girls
retuming. but it's a night-tmd-day
difference between playing club
soccer zutd playing Division I soc-
cer. So everyone will be going
through a learning process the first
two years."

But with Lipka at the helm. that
leanting process may not take as
long as UK fzms would think. Lipka
has coaching experience at both the
college turd professional levels. His
last job was with the Indiana Kicks
ot the Major Soccer League He
started the women's soccer program
at ’I‘ri-Stale University in Angola.
Ind.. a few years ago.

Lipka also earned some pretty
high honors as a player. A former
high school AllsAmcrican from St.
Louis. he played collegiate soccer at
the University of South Carolina.

where in [985 he was named the
Division I College Player of the
Year. He also played live years in
the now-defunct Major Indoor Soc-
cer League.

From experience. Lipka knows
not to expect immediate success
from a young. first-year tewn. But.
the UK coach said, the potential for
winning is there.

“I think by the time the incoming
freshmen become juniors and our
freshmen now become seniors, then
we'll be a tetun that is competitive
and maybe looking toward getting
a (NCAA) bid." Lipka said. “I've
been on the heavy recruiting trail
these past few months. and I really
look forward to next year."

UK will join Vanderbilt 2md Ar-
kansas next fall as the orily Sli(‘
schools to offer women‘s varsity
soccer programs. Bill that may
change soon. according to Lipka.

“There are a lot of other Sli(‘
teams talking about bringing in
new progrtuns — like Tennessee.
Florida 2qu Georgia." the UK
coach said. “I think we‘re getting a
head start on it. There‘s a lot of iri-
terest in the game on the women's
sItIL‘,"

In addition to Sltcchan. the Lady
Kats will rcttrrn the following
players from this year's club learn:
Sarah Morrison. who also scored
two goals in the Blue-White gtune:
Alison (Tobb: Amy Lockwood:

Many may assume violence is a
rare occurrence in any intimate rela-
tionship. llowever, statistically, half
the women in the United States will
be victims of battering at some peri-
od in their lives. Assault also can
happen to men who represent 10
percent of the victims. Since 90 per-
cent of the victims are women, we
will focus our attention on them.

Before we begin discussion, it is
helpful to define the range of vio—
lence. This range includes (but is
not limited to): obscene phone calls,
unethical advances by a professor
or staff person, sexually coercive
behavior at parties, battering by
boyfriends and acquaintance/date
rape. 'lhese acts of violence can oc-
cur anywhere. Because most vio-
lence occurs to victims 25 years old
or under —— the average age of a
UK student — we will concenuate
on violence that occurs on college
campuses.

Contributions to violence include
alcohol use and socialization fac-
tors. Through smializalion. we
have gathered many myths and ster-
eotypes about relationships and sex
roles. We are programmed to be-

 

For the
HEALTH OF IT

lieve that men should be aggressive
and dominant, while women are
supposed to be demure and depen-
dent, yielding a “perfect" couple.
Unfortunately, these role expecta-
tions may conflict and cause stress
in the relationship and result in vio-
lence.

Stress in relationships may derive
from quarrels, sexual problems. dis-
approval of another's behavior and
a lack of communication. When
coupled with alcohol and/or drug
use. these problems are intensified.
Alcohol acts to depress inhibitions.
lnhibitions help prevent us from
hurting someone verbally or physi-
cally. It has been observed that
when women begin drinking, their
communication skills turd coping
responses lessen. When men begin
drinking. they experience an in-
crease of sexual arousal to erotic
stimuli and an increase irl aggres-

sion. Seventy percent of violent acts
committed on campuses result from
alcohol use. Although alcohol eon-
tributes to violence iii relationships.
60 percent of students claim to use
alcohol to obtain sexual contact.

Another important factor in rela-
tionship violence is the intettsity of
the relationship. Many believe that
the more serious the relationship
tie. dating. “steady relationship,“
marriage). the less violence and
stress occurs. ln reality, the in-
creased level of intimacy in the re-
lationship intensifies the amount of
violence and stress that may occur.
In intimate relationships, many
myths come into play. Some per-
ceive abuse as a sign of love. It also
is easier to ignore “no" when you
think you know someone and what
that person wants. Some do riot
hear “no" because they do not warlt
"no" to mean “no." All these myths
lead to false justifications of rape
and assault.

'l‘hcre are ways to prevent getting
involved irl these violent situations.
Sometimes becoming a victim of
violence is beyond our control. and

the radio station. which is 88.1 on
the FM dial.

As program manager. Higgins
will be deciding much of what is
played on the air. She plans to stay
with the course of extreme diversity
that the station has followed since
its founding four years ago.

'l‘he radio station is “headed in a
really good direction." she said.

She disdains some radio stations
which claim “you heard it here
first.“

“People do hear things on er’l.
long before you hear it on commer-
cial radio." lliggins said.

Among lliggins‘ plans for the l'u-
lure of WRH, are a news staff and a
monthly talk/debate show about
University issues.

Presenting several viewpoints on
issues like recycling. the show
would "provide an open discussion
turd provide the community with In-
forrnatron on what‘s going on," she
said.

adopting similar programs, Buckner
said.

Shelbie l)eibel. a secondary math

because she said it “takes away the
derogatory term of ‘pledge.' ”

Andrea Partner, 21 health adminis»

the first class to try the new short-
ened pledgeship period.

“I liked the program because it
tnade me feel like a part of the so-

idea is supposed to be obsolete ill a
few years."
