In those days, when

the hen could tell the

led to the "hen

Anyone could get an

UKAA issues ‘zero tolerance’ plan

Athletics department takes major stance on drinking by
its student-athletes; those caught could lose scholarship

By Ellen Lord
ASSISTANT NEVIS EDITOR

Athletic Director C.M. Newton an-
nounced a “zero-tolerance" alcohol policy
for UK student-athletes yesterday that
would suspend without scholarship varsi-
ty athletes convicted of driving under the
influence.

“As a result of the increased number
of alcohol-related incidents involving UK
student-athletes. we feel it is important at
this time to review and revise the student-
athlete alcohol policy." Newton said.

Although Newton said the department
has been reviewing the alcohol policy for
about a year, the change comes only 10
days after an alcohol-related accident
killed one UK football player and seriously
injured another.

The new policy. effective immediate-
ly, outlines stricter penalties from be-
ing kicked off the team to probation _,
for athletes involved in alcohol-related
charges.

Unlike past policies, which did not
outline departmentwide penalties. the new
penalties apply to all UK varsity sports

(about 400 student-athletes).

Under the new guidelines. any athlete
charged with a DUI will be temporarily
suspended from practices and competi-
tion until the UK Athletic Association
personnel investigates the merit of the
charges. If an athlete is charged with pub-
lic intoxication or underage drinking. the
individual will be put on probation and
required to complete an alcohol-counsel-
ing program.

Any student-athlete convicted of DU
will be suspended indefinitely and forfeit
scholarship money.

“I've had this policy on every team
I‘ve ever coached." Newton said. He
added that he has dismissed several play-
ers on his own teams under those condi-
tions. but would be willing to consider re

bone. Our tradition
comes from the
tradition after this.
Two people then got
a chance to make a
wish by snapping the
dried bone in the
same way we do
now, with each one
pulling on an end.
The person with the
larger end of the
bone got the wish -
and it became known
as a “lucky break."
The Romans brought the
wishbone tradition
with them when they
conquered England,
and that's how we
got it.

Turkeys

For the
birds

The heaviest turkey ever
raised may have been
the 75-pound turkey
raised by a turkey
farming company in
I967.

Turkey meat from wild
or domesticated
birds was a staple in
the diet of many
Indian tribes:

The Cheyennes feared it
would make them
cowardly

The Apache considered
the turkey to be timid
and wouldn't eat it or
use its feathers on
their arrows

In the Southwest.
lndians revered the
turkey.

Northern tribes felt the
turkey was a friend
of man and could
battle evil spirits.

In Mexico, the turkey
was a sacrificial bird.

SGA gets rally mobilized, marchers descend

By Hark Vanderhoff
STAFF VIRITER

Students furious with a res
olution to limit the amount of
occupants in a single dwelling
unit rallied. marched to the
City Government Center and
watched the Lexington-Fayette
Urban County Council kill the
proposed ordinance in its early
stages yesterday.

“The students put the pres
sure on. and look what hap-
pened." said George Brown. 1st
District council member. who
motioned to withdraw the vote
to pass the resolution on for fur-
ther consideration.

“You all (students) saw

Brown added. “This (the reso-

The Student Government
Association. fearing the effect
the resolution would have on
students' ability to find afford
able housing. sponsored a f0»
rum Monday night to address
concerns and mobilized a rail
ly. The rally began in front of
Patterson Office Tower and
was followed by a march to the
citv council meeting. where
the resolution was being de-
bated.

SGA members passed out
signs at POT sporting mes
sages. such as “Future home-
less student" and “Where‘s our
voice?" and encouraged the
hundreds of people gathered

people can live in one house

More than 100 students
marched to the government
center. prompting honks from
passing motorists en route.

There were so many people
inside the city council cham-
bers. designed to hold 200 peo-
ple. that the fire marshall or
dered those unseated to go
downstairs to watch the pro-
ceedings on closed-circuit telc‘
vision.

council for about an hour.

Many residents argued
that overcrowding was caus-

creased nuisances and
overusage of an antiquated

“There is a desperate need
to control some of the problems
in this area." said Mark Barker.
who owns a house near UK and
rents to two students.

Mike Meuser. president of

The escort carries a hand-held

ing system and an alarm button. If

at Barker Hall.

“We wanted to make it quicker.

SGA puts money into the ROTC

emergency radios and serve as ad-
viser“ to the program.

“It's important that people walk
in groups." said Stephanie Bastin.

“Even if some people choose not to

Puerto Rico
to challenge

Wildcats

No.4 UK faces tough field at island paradise,
including Colorado, Xavier, Maryland, UCLA

By Jen Smith

SENIOR STA" IRIIER

Hawaii and Puerto Rico
are not exactly home to a lot of
intensity or pressure. But
while the UK men’s basketball
team visits during the Puerto
Rico Shootout, intensity and
pressure are just what viewers
are going to see.

“We want to win," senior
forward Scott Padgett said.
“Not like last year in Hawaii
(at the Maui Invitational)
when we wanted to win it all
and came up short. We have to
be more focused and dedicat-
ed."

Part of that focus will be
on figuring out the LOGO-piece
jig saw puzzle that is the UK
lineup.

“We have to figure out who
has the endurance, the stamina
to handle three games in a
row.“ head coach Tubby Smith
said of the Shootout. “It will
help us figure out where we are
conditionwise."

Smith expects the seniors
to be effective, because they
have been deep in NCAA Tour-
nament play every year they
have been at UK. He said this
will be a big test for the fresh-
men.

“We‘re going to have fun
for sure." said Smith. whose
wife and mother will both
make the trek. “But we’ll
spend a lot of time practicing
and breaking down film."

Here are some early break-
downs for those of you who
won‘t be sipping margaritas on
the beach or snorkeling the
clear waters:

0 Colorado (4-0): UK‘s first
opponent in the Shootout takes
another young team into its
campaign. but this year‘s team
will be anchored by experi-
ence. Headlining a list of seven

returning letter winners is se-
nior shooting guard Kenny
Price, the Buffs’ leading scorer
from a year ago and one of the
nation’s most dangerous out-
side threats.

. Xavier (4-0): Last season
was a memorable one for
Xavier, a potential second-
round UK opponent, except for
the unhappy ending. Xavier
ended a Atlantic 10 Champi-
onship season on sour grapes.
They fell to Washington and a
bad shooting day in the first
round of the NCAA Tourna-
ment. Coach Skip Prosser and
his seniors James Posey, Gary
Lumpkin and Lenny Brown
lead the Musketeer's run-and-
stun style, that enabled them to
lead the Atlantic 10 in scoring
(83.5 ppg), scoring margin
(plus-14.7 ppg), field-goal shoot-
ing (.484) and steals (11.7 per
game).

0 Pittsburgh (30): Another
potential second-round oppo-
nents is led by one of the best
backcourt tandems in the
country in junior Vonteego
Cummings and sophomore Kel-
li Taylor. The Panthers play a
fast. in-your-face style with a
barrage of threes.

0 UCLA (3-0): A potential
championship game opponent.
The No. 10 Bruins boast the
second-youngest team in the
country. Coach Steve Lavin
has a group of blue—chippers.
including four McDonald's All—
Americans , sophomore Baron
Davis and freshmen JaRon
Rush, Dan Gadzuric and Ray
Young.

0 Maryland (40): Three
huge starters are back for the
No. 6 Terps. a potential finals
opponent. But it may well be a
newcomer. guard Steve Fran-
cis. who causes trouble. Fran-
cis joins the most talented
Maryland lineup in years.

Smith keeps hoop
fans on their toes

Tubby Smith does it again.

Somewhere Monday night.
in a part of Kentucky far. far
away. Elmer Fudd sat next to
his transistor radio and lis-
tened to Ralph and Sam call the
game.

He thought that maybe his
hearing had gone bad ,- perhaps
that shotgun finally got the best
of him. Surely he didn't hear
what he thought he heard:
“And at guard. No. 4. Steve
Masiellooo!"

“What in tarnation?" the
disgruntled Wildcat follower
thought. The faithful fan soon
learned that Wayne Turner and
Heshimu Evans were being
punished for missing team cur-
few.

That was understandable to
him. but he still couldn't under
stand why Richie wasn‘t start~
mg.

Now. let‘s bring our atten-
tion to Norman Dale. from the
movie Hoosiers. In Hickory.
lnd.. a place that takes its bas-
ketball as seriously as its reli-
gion. stands Hickory High
School.

A once-hailed, nowfailed
college coach. Dale has taken
up the inevitable task of coach
ing Hickory High‘s eight~man
hoop squad.

Right away, the whole town
has something to say about his
suspicious training methods
and unorthodox bench manner.
The school and the town want
him fired.

But Coach Dale believes in
two things himself and his
team. Amazingly. kids become
captains. players become a team
and losers become winners.

Together. they win the
state championship end up
making history in Hoosiers.

Then there's Tubby Smith.

In Lexington. a place that
takes its basketball more seri-

eer'f. ‘

ously than its religion. stands
UK. A once-hailed, now still
hailed college coach. Smith has
accepted the inevitable task of
coaching UK’s ‘4-man hoop
squad.

Right away. the whole town
has something to say about his
suspicious training methods
and unorthodox bench manner.
He saves his timeouts and is
awfully stagnate when com-
pared to his predecessor. Rick
Pitino.

His 21—2 team loses at home
to Florida. and that fan from an
unknown part of Kentucky said.
“I haven't given up on them
yet." After another home loss to
Ole Miss on Valentine‘s Day.
Mr. Rudd calls Smith‘s squad
“The worst 22-4 team I've ever
seen."

Big Blue faithfuls from all
over the country question the
coach. but Smith believes in two
things himself and his team.
Amazingly. kids become cap-
tains. players become a team
and losers become winners.
Together. they win the National
Championship and end up mak-
ing history in Kentucky.

With all this in mind. it was
really no surprise that. during
Monday‘s game against Wright
State, Tubby elected to keep two
of his senior captains on the
bench and start the “human vic-
tory cigar."

Masiello worked hard in
practice all week. so he was
rewarded by the UK coach.
Discipline, so they say. wins
championships.

Tubby did it again Monday
night. but is anybody really sur-
prised?
