No. 111 Established 1 894 University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky Independent since 1971 Wednesday, February 14, 1990 Fewer young Americans abuse drugs, survey shows By DEBORAH MESCE Associated Press WASHINGTON — Use of ille- gal drugs by high school seniors, college students and other young adults declined in I989, continuing a decade-long trend, according to an annual survey released yester- day. The survey, funded by the Na- tional Institute on Drug abuse, said illegal drug use dropped last year among all three categories of young people surveyed, and that casual use among high school seniors and college students is about half what it was a decade ago. “This reduced demand is attribut- able largely to the important chang- es occurring in the attitudes, beliefs and social norms among our young people," said Lloyd Johnston, a University of Michigan social sci- entist who helped conduct the sur- vey, which was funded by the Na- tional Institute on Drug Abuse. He said the decline has come about because anti-drug messages have made illegal drug use “un— fashionable." And he noted that the decline has been occurring despite students’ belief that marijuana and cocaine are easy to get. Survey officials, however, said they continue to be concerned about use of crack, the highly ad- dictive, smokable form of cocaine. Its use among ”mainstream" young adults is declining, the survey found, but not as much as use of powdered cocaine. Among seniors. 1.4 percent said they had used crack within the pre- vious 30 days, down from 1.6 per- cent in 1988. The also expressed concern about use of “ice," or crystal metham- phetamine, which was included in the survey for the first time last year. About 1.2 percent of the seniors See DRUGS, Page 9 LOOK OUT ABOVE: Architecture students Frank Lietz (second from Ielt) and Mike Boyd (right) reach for a trisbee as Tracy Ray Lift watches in tront ot Pence Hall yesterday afternoon.

Rep. Jim Bunning speaks to the UK College GOP yesterday. By BRIAN JENT Managing Editor Kentucky Congressman Jim Banning told UK students yester- day that the future is bright for the Republican Party in the 19905. Speaking before abOut 3S. std dents in 206 Student Center. Bun- ning said that the Republican Party stands to “make major gains na- tionally and in Kentucky" if young- er members come together and show their support “It is so important (to get in- volved)," the GOP Representative from the Fourth Congressional Dis~ trict said. “The momentum is in our favor. We have a popular president, voting trends, youth, restructuring (of the voting districts), the Demo- crats adversary at a national level are all working in our favor we can make this a Republican decade. The possibility is there. We just have to get out there and work.“ The speech was sponsored by UK's chapter of the College Re- publicans. “The purpose of the visit is to speak to the College Republicans," said John Middleton, a political science and history major who is the group's vice chairman. Although the GOP has lost offic- es at several Icvds of govemmcnt. Bunning said he sees the Republi- can Party‘s control of the White House during the I9805 as a big as SCI. The Republican Party also has won four out of the last five races for the White House. Bunning said that Ronald Rea- gan's 85 months of continuous ec- onomic growth, the longest in peace-time history, and current President George Bush‘s populari- ty as examples of the GOP‘s strength. “We have the ongoing legend of Ronald Reagan, and whether you like it or not. there is a very good perception all over this country about Reagan. Ronald Reagan proved to the American people that you can handle the office of the presidency with dignity he said. Another reason that the Republr can‘s are on the rte is that conflicts are occurring within the National Democratic Party, Running said. “A 165 (ollicialsi switched from Democrat to Republican last year." Bunning said. “They have a terrible time finding what they believe in.“ Running said that voting redis tricting also would benefit the GOP future. Accoiding to Buniiing's re- search, he said that Kentucky ‘s yol- iitg districts will not change alter the 1990 census. ”There are l7or IX (’oiigiession al (districts) that are going In s'AtIcll primaiily Ili‘l‘il tne \i‘l,ll cast. where the lt’clllk)kl~ll\ at, III. strongest. to the South, \K‘iiinwc s: and \\cst where the Republicans are making great strides. ~l'yt‘tl lllttst‘ sidlc‘s ‘wilt‘tt‘ \i‘ti dont lose or gain seats. the lities will lime to bc redrawn and i hanc cs are you are going to haye to at .i challenger ll‘. those new redc tint d \ll\li’l\ 1)." llt‘sl‘llt‘ the tactors working [Hi the Republicans.

I thought it was a very good idea. It gave students a chance to get additional help. Of course that was part of the (instruc- tors) education. to get practice." University High School no long- er exists, but students in the Col- lege of Education still are required to student teach for one semester. “All students in the progrtun still student-teach for one semester. We no longer have the University school," said Sharon Brennan, di- rector of field experiences and cer- tification in the College of Educa- tion. “Now we use the schools in Fayette County." Fisher graduated from University High in 1932 and moved with his family to Winchester, Ky., where he attended Kentucky Wesleyan College. The stock market crashed and the Fisher family, along with other Americans, felt the affects. “lt affected all walks of life. Peo- ple just didn’t have any money. People would work for a dollar a day," he said. “My father left this section for Chicago to try to find a job. My mother and 1 left (Lexing- ton for Winchester) because we lost our home."

But through a working scholar- ship, Fisher was able to attend Ken- tucky Weslyan College. “It meant that I painted houses and cut grass (for the college) to pay the tuition and books," he said. In the 1990s, however, the num- ber ofjob openings gives students a reason to continue their education. “Today there is far more job openings. Kids today, well if they can't find (ajob) in Lexington, they can go somewhere else,“ Fisher said. “In my day you just couldn't. There are just more reasons for more people to go to college today. Things are just so much better to- day." After graduating from Kentucky Weslyan College, Fisher was given a job by his brc'her, a business and advertising manager for the Wiri- chester Sun. “My brother was the business manager and advertising manager and gave me my opportunity to help him. When he left. I took his place," Fisher said. ”My father. first of all, handled advertising for a bunch of Lexington stores. My brother handled advertising for a bunch of movie places. That kind of made me fall into it." In 1941 Fisher joined the retail advertising staff of the Lexington Herald-Leader where he worked for 35 years, the last 13 years as manager of the National Advertis- ing Department. Fisher retired in 1976 from the Herald-Leader, where he first learned about the Donovan Schol- ars program. The Donovan Scholars program, which began in the fall 1962. al- lows students 65 years and older to enroll in regular university classes E t seems French Quarter Square Richmond Rd. 266-5555 FREE LOleX Balloon with Flora!

This semes- ter 130 students 65 years or older are enrolled in UK courses. “When it first started it wasn’t that much known about it. Today there is a lot done to encourage people to join the Donovans," Fish- er said. “In the ‘30s a lot of people didn't graduate because they couldn't afford to go to college. A lot of people wanted to resume their education. It takes a little while for people to come into the program. It's just natural that there would be more today than then." The opportunity to take college classes to advance his education at no cost attracted Fisher to the Don- ovan program. “When (former UK President) Dr. Donovan got ready to retire he (formed a program) to let people over 65 take those courses," he said. “I just took advantage of the free courses." “It's a way to improve your mind. At my particular age I have no reason to work for a degree. All said and done, I get as much out of just attending lecture courses," he said. “I have no purpose to ever go back to work, so I have no reason to get a degree. I‘m not doing it for that purpose. lfI got a degree every year it would not make a bit of dif- ference in my life." Beginning his education in 1929 and continuing his education in 1990, Fisher considers himself to have completed a circle. “1 look forward to it and enjoy it, so making a full circle is what I did,” he said. “I think it‘s great that the University makes it possible that we can take this program to keep on learning." no excuse. from a big problem later.

Hopper and Sutherland save By KIP BOWMAR Senior Stall Critic Some movies give you a yes-the- commercral-is—going-tobe-funnter- than-thiscntiremovie feeling in the beginning but manage to sal- vage some measure of credibility. There are few of these movies be- cause when one starts so poorly, it‘s usually a slow and steady de- scent into the depths of film hell - a place graced by most Brooke Shields movies. While Franco Amurri’s “Flash- back“ gives that initial feeling, there is a measure of redemption because of the intriguing perfor- mances by Keller Sutherland, Den- nis Hopper and several other charac- ters. The movie starts with young FBI agent John Buckner (Ketfer Suther— land) escorting 19605 radical Huey Walker (Dennis Hopper) to Jail for a 20-year-old criminal mischief charge. In the scene where Buckner and Walker meet, Buckner plays the heavy and sets the rules down. It's a scene that has been done count- less times before, and most of the time better. The scene seem to be lifted from the Eddie Murphy-Nick Noltie scene in “48 Hours." Fog prevents the two from fly- ing from San Francisco to Spo- kane, Wash, and the they have to take the train — an idea first em— ployed in film when the fog ma- chine was invented. The movie's characters are origi- on], even if many of its scenes are not. Hopper is convincing in his role as an old radical, harkening hack to the type of character he played in “Easy Rider." Hopper convinces Sutherland that he slipped him some acid and manages to switch places with him. Hopper’s walk and gestures are well-suited to the quirky charac- ter he ponrays. Hopper then runs into yippies« turned-yuppies (Richard Massur and Tom O’Brien) in a bar. The script pokes fun at yuppies who are a part of the system but still pretend to be rebels. Those charac- ters' pretensions are amusing and add to the movie. In jail Sutherland runs into a crooked sheriff (Cliff De Young), and through a twist of events Su— Smart people.

SGA President Cyndi Weaver and Executive Vice President Brad Dixon did not get along, and as a result the executive branch’s overall efficiency suffered. Dixon and Weaver were elected from opposing tickets, and did not see eye to eye on many student issues. Tonight the SGA Senate will consider an amendment to its constitution that calls for the president and vice president to be elected on the same ticket. This page has been a strong proponent of electing SGA’s executive branch officials on the Same ticket, but the idea has never had the two-thirds vote in the Senate needed to pass. Electing the president and vice president on the same tickets creates a more efficient government. Under President Sean Lohman and Vice President Paige Foster this year, the executive branch has run rather smoothly. Lohman and Foster ran on the same ticket and shared similar ideas of what SGA’s role ought to be, and have worked together quite well. But if candidates from an opposing ticket had been elected to SGA last spring, student govemment’s effectiveness might have been severely limited. When the Board of Trustees ignored student needs last semester during the Roselle—Wilkinson—Wethington—Ockerman episode, Lohman was the spokesman for student concerns. Had he been elected to serve with someone who opposed him in the spring election, Lohman could have been undercut by his own executive branch. Having an SGA president and vice president who get along is most important to ensure that SGA’s everyday operations are attended to and students’ needs are met. The president and vice president have a vital role in setting a tone for SGA in which students are encouraged to become active in their student government. It therefore is important for the two officials to have a healthy and professional working relationship. In defense of electing the president and vice president separately, one could argue that it forces leaders to place student interests above private political concerns. Opposing candidates also produce a sort of check between the two offices. But the problem with that argument is that it fails to recognize that while two students may have the student body’s interest at heart, their visions of serving students may be radically different. And rather than working together, the executive branch officials may wind up working against each other. Therefore, we encourage the Senate to vote for the amendment allowing students to vote for the ticket of president and vice president.
