After months of restructuring,
new initiatives proposed by U niver-
sity administrators may be ham-
pered by the latest budget crisis,
UK President Charles Wethington
said yesterday.

Wethington reiterated his pledge
to maintain quality at the institu-
tion, but he said that progress
would be slow.

“We're going to do the very best
job we can of managing the budget
and to protect students and protect
academic programs.“ Wethington
said after yesterday‘s Board of
Trustees meeting. “But we simply
are not going to be able to do as
much as we‘d like to do."

UK has had a contingency plan in
place to deal with a possible 2 per-
cent reduction in state appropria-
tions since November. Last month,
state officials announced that per-
centage would be withheld and ad-
vised state universities to prepare
for another 2 percent reduction for
1993-94.

The 2 percent would mean a loss
of about $5.7 million. UK already
has suffered more than $26 million
in cutbacks since Fall 1991.

University administrators had
been working on next year‘s budget
for nearly two months when the an-
nouncement came. But they had
"somewhat expected it." said Ed
Caner. vice president for manage—
ment and budget.

Wethington said that he will treat
the situation in the same manner he
has treated previous cuts.

“We will handle the situation in
the same way in that we will contin—
ue to review virtually everything
we do in the University of Ken-
tucky." he said. “Fortunately. we
have been involved in a restructur-
ing and reallocating process that
gives us some flexibility."

One additional source of revenue
for UK next year will be a tuition
increase which was approved by the
state Council on Higher Education
in February.

“Obviously, the tuition increase
is a benefit for us at this time be-

Bosomworth resigning
as chancellor — sort of

 

By Brian Bennett
Senior Staff Writer

 

Peter Bosomworth, chancellor
of the Albert. B Chandler Medi-
cal Center, is resigning his posi-
tion — sort of.

Bosomworth’s son and daugh-
ter-in-law were accepted into
the UK residency programs in
Pediatrics and Family Practice.
University Governing Regula-
tions prohibit a chancellor or
vice president‘s relatives from
being employed in that chancel~
lor or vice president's sector.

Bosomwonh did not want to
prevent his son and daughter-in-
law from attending UK. so he
decided to resign. effective June
26.

But UK President Charles
Wethington did not think that
would allow the University
enough time to find a suitable
successor. Upon Wethington's
recommendation yesterday. the
Board of Trustees accepted Bo-
somworth‘s resignation. then
approved the waiver of the Gov-

 

erning Regulation and named
him “acting" chancellor effective
June 26.

In effect, the move changes
nothing, since Bosomworth, 62,
had planned
to retire in
June 1994
anyway.

1 “I will be
~ prepared to
step down at
any time," he
said. “i do
not expect to
continue any
BOSOMWOBTH longer than 12
months."

“Dr. Bosomworth has provid-
ed and continues to provide very
strong leadership in the Medical
Center," Wethington said. “To
choose a successor in the right
way we need time to do that. My
feeling is that in the best interests
of the University we need to
have Dr. Bosomworth in his po-
sition while we try to find a suc-
cessor."

cause students are going to be pay-
ing more for assistance to the bud-
get of the University of Kentucky."
Wethington said.

Wethington said that the reduc-
tion will affect all areas and pro-
grams and will prevent the Univer~
sity from hiring new faculty. UK
has been in a hiring freeze since
December 1991.

However, Wethington pledged to
continue his policy of protecting
employee's jobs rather than laying
them off.

“We‘ve worked too long and too
hard for the University employees
to have that happen now." he said.

Wethington also said that his
“strong desire and hope is that we‘ll

be able to put forth a plan that will
have some salary increases for fa-
culty and staff.“

When Wethington told the board
members the situation. board chair-
man and former Gov. Edward T.
“Ned" Breathitt urged the trustees
to do their pan in helping UK.

“T his is not something that we
need to wring our hands over," he
said. “This is a very influential
board. We need to use our power to
let it be known that it‘s essential
that we not turn our back on our
most precious resources — our
young people."

March through June is the peak
of indoor tanning season for Cen-
ual Kentucky. Many tanners be-
lieve the darker they become the
healthier and more attractive they
look.

Skin expens disagree.

“Beauty, in this regard, is defi-
nitely in the eye of the beholder,"
said Joseph Bark. 3 Lexington
dermatologist “Going to a tan-
ning salon is an open and frontal
assault on your skin."

Bark compared lying in a tan-
ning bed to “giving yourself a
spoonful of arsenic."

The increase in the number of
visitors to tanning salons likely is
related to increases in melanoma.
a dark-colored. malignant mole
or tumor. said dermatologist Pa-
tricia Dickerson of Dayton, Ohio.

“in the past five years. we‘re
seeing more skin cancer in wom-
en in their 20s and 30s. especially
the pale person. and this was un~
heard of." Dickerson said. “Part
of it is tanning beds. Pan of it
outdoors is the thinning of the
ozone layer. Part of it is people
getting large amounts of sunlight
very early in their lives.

"The number one person going
to the tanning salon. a teenage
white female. can‘t appreciate
what's going to happen to her
skin 20 years down the line."

Dickerson said that skin dam-
age from tanning beds includes
early wrinkling. uneven skin tone
and dilated blood vessels.

Parents’ incomes not used
to figure need for new loan

 

By Clarissa Blair
Staff Writer

 

Students who thought they were
ineligible for financial aid may be
in luck.

As of July 1, a new student loan
is being offered by the federal gov-
ernment to students who do not
qualify as having a need for finan-
cial aid because their parents‘ in-
come is too high.

Financial Aid Director Bobby
iialsey said that the new loan is an
unsubsidized Stafford Loan and the
borrowing process is the same as
the government subsidized Stafford
Loan. The federal govemment guar-
antces the new Stafford loan, and
repayment does not begin until six
months after the date of graduation
or departure from college.

However. there are two important
differences between the subsidized
and unsubsidized loans.

first. the government does not
pay the interest on the loan while
the student is enrolled. That is why
it is called "unsubsidized." The in.
terest accrues and is added to the
loan,

Second. lending is not based on
need. In the past. students had to
show a need for financial assistance
to get a Stafford loan. but with the
new loan students who do not quali-
fy as having a need for financial as.
sistance according to government
standards can borrow money for
school.

During the 1992-93 academic
year. more that 8.000 UK students
received loans for college adding
up to more that $23 million.
in addition to the new IOII, the

limit on the amount of money a stu-
dent can borrow will be raised July
1, said Don Mills. student loan offi-
cer at Bank One.

This past school term. second-
year students could only borrow up
to 52,625. Now those students an
get as much as $3.500 per year
from a Stafford Loan. Third- and
fourth-year students now will be
able to borrow up to $5.500 per

tional attention to the University."

The end of the resolution reads:
“BE IT RESOLVED that the llni~
versity of Kentucky Board of Trus<

Conference Toumament in Lexing-
ton and made the NCAA Final Four
before losing Saturday to Michigan

I can't understand it, I just can't
understand why some people dis-
like the sport of baseball.

1 mean, what is there to hate
about it'.’ You have the grass. the
sun. the dirt. What else could you
want‘.’

No matter. someone always find
a way to spoil the party.

The complaints are endless. First.
you have somebody complain about
the length of the game. They say
that it is too long and boring and
that they just end up falling asleep
around the fifth inning anyway.

What is so bad about that? If it
makes you happy and relaxes you.
then that‘s great. How many times
can you say you felt relaxed while
watching a basketball game? Your
pulse quickens. you begin to sweat
and get chills at the same time and
you feel nauseous if your favorite
team doesn‘t win. Now that is what
IcaII fun.

In baseball, there are 162 games
and plenty of chances to enjoy the
game without having to see a doctor
afterward.

Another thing, announcers in
baseball never take the game too se-
riously. Never have I heard an an-
nouncer almost have a heart attack
on the air because they got too ex-
cited.

Here is a typical conversation be-
tween two announcers during a typ-
ical baseball game:

Announcer I: “You know. Bill. I
was out in downtown Los Angeles
when I ran into Larry Miller. the
Reds first baseman. who was with
his wife and kids the other day. and
he told me the funniest story about
his latest attempts at fly fishing and
about how he wants to fish every-
day after he retires

Announcer 2: "Uh. Joe. they just
hit back-to-back home runs to tie
the game and send it into extra in-
nings."

Announcer 1: “Oh. ()K. Well. be-
fore l was so rudely interrupted. he
said that he had loved fishing ever

since he was a kid. except for the
time when he was nine and his old-

have been last week. but it was still
the funniest thing. You see

And he continues on his merry
way until some station executive
decides to shut him up or they just
turn the camera off and let him
keep talking until the next game.

What's not to love about that?

There are so many reasons to
love baseball.

How many times can you remem-
ber baseball fans having to stand in
below-freezing weather to watch a
game? When is the last time you
could sing in the middle of a foot-
ball game?

()pening day was two days ago.
and already it is moving too fast.
Instead of crying about how long
the season is. we should just relax
and watch the grunes. even with all
its craziness sometimes.

Goose, Library,
Fonz only things
missing from ’70s

 

Dave Lavender
Kernel Columnist

 

As little Stevie Wonder would
have said. I’m “superstitious."
That’s why I hocked my cheap gui-
tar and plunked down every nickel I
could find on the Cats to bring the
Championship back from New Or-
leans.

We were destined to win. It was
in the stars. The stars of Dallas.
Iiveryone's read about how when
UK won in 1978 Dallas took the
NFL Championship, Alabama took
the National Title in the collegiate
ranks and a southern governor was
elected president.

I started thinking about how
much has really changed since the
‘70s. Sure. there is no Goose throw-
ing in 41 for the Cats these days.
but Eric Clapton swept the Gram-
mys. Elton John and Richie Havens
are the big concert tickets in town
and Parliament has a new album
coming out soon.

So, I did a bit of research in some
ancient Kernels (mostly 1976s) and
found that other than Elvis, things
haven't changed much. And there
were some things that have, that
were probably best left alone.

Believe it or not

oUK not only won football
games. they shutout Tennessee 7-0
in 1976, which led to the resigna-
tion of UT coach Bill Battle. The
Kentucky Kernel reported the reac-
tions of a couple of UK players.

“Hey that was far out." said
James Ramsey.

“Gawd---—. that's great. We beat
them,“ said Clarence “Buckshot"
Undemood.

OK. so maybe we didn't suit up
Rhodes scholars, but by Gawd we
actually beat teams that weren‘t in
the Mid—Atlantic Conference.

°Thc Library really was the hang-
out. No. not the confusing corridors
of Margaret I. King, but the cosy
confines of the Library Lounge, lo-
cated at University Plaza at Euclid
and Woodland avenues where Ly-
naghs is now. The Library Lounge.
which gets considerable mention in
Sally Demon‘s book “Bluegrass
Conspiracy." had a pound of brew
for a buck in the mid-70s and pro-
moted such nights as Titanic night.
“9 pm. begins an exciting evening
of disco as you and the Titanic
slowly sink." declared a Kentucky
Kernel ad.

-It wasn't until Sept. 17. 1976.
that UK put its very own ice cream
parlor in the Student Center. To add
to the frenzied euphoria that surely
swept the campus, Nancy Books.
manager of Student Center Food
Services said in the Kernel, “We
might even get the pinball machines
back in the grille."

Between September 1975 and
August 1976. flashers struck UK’s
campus 13 times, according to UK
campus security statistics reported
in the Kemel.

1974 as a pan of Student Center

-The 1976 UK Homecoming fea-
tured a malt-drinking and Fonz
look-a-like contest. This was prob-
ably because the Student Center
TV room got so crowded during
“Happy Days" that. according to a
information desk clerk. “people
can't walk through the aisles."

- Lexington, Ky.. was the hotbed
for an absolute honeybucket of love
(groovy ’705 lingo) as it had a host
of naughty theaters such as the Lex-
ington Drive-In, where fine. family
entertainment was shown, like “Pi-
nocchio," which had the teaser.
“See the surprise when he lies." If
one couldn't get his jollies from
“Pinocchio," (“It‘s not his nose that
grows”) then he could stay for the
erotic adventures of both Zorro and
Robin Hood.

Some Things Never Change

- A singer named Larry Redmon
was playing the Brewery

0A second-year law student
named Gatewood Galbraith formed
two corporations to help Kentucky
farmers attain “their fair share of
the multi-billion dollar marijuana
market." Galbraith formed the Ken-

ijuana Growers Association, Inc.

Combine “Wonder Years” with
“Stand By Me" and there you
have it, “Jack the Bear," a film
that is presented as a flashback
narrative by Jackie, the troubled
son of John Leary (Danny DeVi-
to).

“Jack the Bear" offers a de-

cope with the recent loss of a wife
and mother.

It is 1972 in Oakland. Calif.
The A's have won the World Se-
ries. and the Learys just moved
into the neighborhood.

John Leary makes his living as
Al Gory. the Midnight Shriek. a
late night emcee of classic horror

several stations because of the
tasteless nature of his rather dark
humor. Coupled with alcoholism.
John is in danger of losing yet an-

This forces John to re-evaluate

Danny DeVito offers one of his

compensated for in performance

Glam record
has a few
bright spots

Enuff Z'nuff
Animals With Human Intelligence
Arista Records

 

By Chris Kidwell
Contributing Critic

 

It would be very easy for me to
come straight out and say that Enuff
Z'nufl's new CD is a lousy excuse
for music. I remember back when
its first release was overplayed on
MTV and how much I hated it.
However. knowing things change
and that music evolves, I‘ll give
these "Animals With Human Intel-
ligence" a fair chance.

On their debut. vocalist Donnie
Vie. bassist Chip Z'nuff and guitar-
ist Derek Frigo teamed up with an
impressive crew. This release was
produced by Richie Zito (Cheap
Trick. The Cult) and was mixed by
Nigel Green (Def Leppard, Bryan
Adams). Regardless, this band and
its third release will have trouble
shedding its MTV pop-metal band
image in the mold of such glam
gods as Poison and Warrant.

There are a few bright spots on
this album however. Guitarist Frigo
is an extremely solid riff-master.

Frigo‘s melodic fretwork is high-
ly showcased on “One Step Closer
To You." This track is probably the
strongest on this collection of 12
pop-metal ramblings. Even the vo-
cals on this song aren’t too bad. Vo-
calist Vie and bassist Z"nuff har-
monize quite well at times.

Two other tracks, “Superstitions"
and “Bring It On Home." stand out
above the remainder of this release.
These two. along with “One Step
Closer To You." would be likely
candidates for singles.

For the most part. Animals With
Human Intelligence wasn‘t as bad
as I had expected. However. I
wouldn‘t recommend mshing out to
add this to your musical collection.
You might be more content just sit-
ting up late on a Saturday night and
watching MTV‘s Headbanger’s
Ball. You‘re sure to see plenty of
this dying breed of pop-metal and
probably too much of host Riki
Rachtrnan.

Taped testimony used as both Sides rest in King trial

 

By Linda Detach
Associated Pm

 

LOS ANGELES - Testimony
ended in the federal Rodney King
beating trial yesterday after prose.
cutors showed jurors a videotape of
one policeman condemning his co-
defendants and his sergeant re-
turned to the stand to rebut him.

But Sgt. Stacey Koon‘s attempt
to contradict Officer Theodore Bri-
seno's taped testimony from last
year‘s state trial gave a prosecutor
an opportunity to tell jurors a Brise-
no remark that had been edited out
of the videotape —— that he believed
another officer was “out of con-
trol."

Briseno broke ranks with his fel-
low policemen in the state trial. in
which they were acquitted on near-
ly all charges. He joined their de-
fense in the current trial on federal
civil rights charges. and he didn‘t
testify.

Over defense objections. howev-

er. the judge allowed prosecutors to
play a videotime of Briseno's state
testimony. in which he said King
wasn't a threat when he was beaten
