Kentucky Kernel

By MARK R. CHELLGREN
Associated Press

FRANKFORT — The 1988-90 bud-
get proposed by Gov. Wallace Wil-
kinson yesterday begs and borrows
from across state government to
pay for some of the promises he
made on the campaign trail.

The budget presented to the Gen-
eral Assembly proposes the expendi-
ture of $6.766 billion in General Fund
money and another $1.5 billion from
the Road Fund for everything from
paying kindergarten teachers to
placing guardrails on state high-
ways.

The total budget, counting money
from the federal government and
raised by state agencies, such as
university tuition, is $14.6 billion for
the biennium.

“We haven’t satisfied all the
needs," said Budget Director Kevin
Hable, “but there's not enough
money in Kentucky to satisfy all the
needs."

The budget reflects virtually no
real growth in fiscal 1989 and only
modest growth in 1990. Hable said
even Wilkinson was forced to make
some sacrifices in the budget.

The money crunch even prompted
a rare proposal to use $35 million
from the Road Fund each year to
pay for state police operations, a
move that is almost certain to

prompt cries of protest from trans-
portation lobbyists.

The budget reflects Wilkinson’s
belief that education and economic
development are the cornerstones of
state government, Hable said.

Additional money is set aside in
the budget for several education
programs, including funding for
poorer districts, school construction
and salaries for teachers with many
years‘ experience.

New buildings or expansions are
authorized at vocational schools in
Paintsville, Bowling Green, Ash-
land, Louisville, Somerset, Hazard
and northern Kentucky.

A new program would set aside
$13 million in the budget for aid to
disadvantaged school districts, with
the governor making the decision on
who gets the money.

Some education items, most nota-
bly the continued decrease in class
sizes, would end.

Higher education does not fare so
well. While appropriations to the
state universities would rise under
Wilkinson's budget plan, the dollars
are small, especially in the first
year of the budget.

Hable said budget-makers did not
use the formula for higher education
funding to arrive at the spending
recommendations. That formula,
which is based primarily on enroll-
ment at the schools, does not give

1 989 fiscal year to legislators last night in Frankfort.

enough information on how the
money will be spent, he said.

Before the various budget cuts
this year, higher education general—
ly received about 88 percent of the
amount called for in the formula.
Wilkinson's budget proposal would
reduce that percentage to almost 83
in 1989 and 81.5 in 1990.

The Commerce Cabinet budget re-
ceived the largest percentage in-
crease of any in state government.

Much of the money will go to pay
debt service on $66 million in new
bonds that would be authorized. The
major share of those bonds, $40 mil-
lion, will be distributed by the cab-
inet to worthy projects.

Others are targeted to specific
projects, from a parking garage in
Covington and downtown redevel-
opment in Owensboro to an expan‘

SGA overwhelmingly votes for King holiday

Staff reports

‘ The Student Government Associa-
tion overwhelmingly passed a reso-
lution last night calling for UK to
close its doors on Martin Luther
King Jr.’s birthday.

Doug Stringer, a member of the
Black Student Union, told the senate
that if they voted against the resolu»
tion, it would be a “slap in the face"
of King’s wife, Coretta Scott King,
who is coming to campus to speak
later this year.

“Dr. King gave his life so that the
constitution would apply to every
American citizen, no matter what
creed or color," Stringer said. “If
the rest of the state schools have
closed its doors in observance of his
birthday, why are we so reluctant?“

However, some senators ques-
tioned why UK should shut down on
King’s birthday when it does not of-
ficially recognize all of the other
legal holidays in the United States.
According to Engineering Senator
Jeff Goodyear, there are about 16

legal holidays recognized by the
United States, and UK does not
honor all of them, he said.

Law Senator David White said in-
stead of calling for a day off school.
SGA should implement educational
programs honoring the memory of
the late civil rights leader.

Some senators said UK should fol-
low the example of other state uni-
versities who do not hold classes on
King‘s birthday, but Goodyear said,
“Why be followers? Let's go on and
make our stand.”

FBI investigates Louisville groups

Associated Press

LOUISVILLE Six Louisville
groups that opposed U.S. policies in
Central America were the subjects
of an FBI investigation that included
infiltration and wiretapping, say tar-
gets of the surveillance.

The activities in Huntsville were
part of a five-year nationwide anti-
terrorlsm investigation, according to
files obtained under the federal
Freedomoflnformation Act.

The FBl‘a intelligence-gathering
activities in [Arisvme and 51 other

cities were described at a news con-
ference yesterday in Washington,
DC, by the Center for Constitution-
al Rights, a New York-based law-
yers‘ group.

Center attorney Margaret Ratner
said the documents, many of which
were partially blacked out before
being turned over to the group.
showed that the FBI used wiretaps,
undercover agents and informants
to gather information on the Com-
mittee in Solidarity with the People
of El Salvador (CISPES).

The FBI‘s smeillance began in

1981 with CISPES and branched out
to include other organizatiom op-
posed to US. policies in Central
America.

Ann Mari Buitrago, director of
F.0.I.A. Inc, who analyzed the doc-
uments, described the FBI investi-
gation as “an old-fashioned do-
mestic security investigation we
thornht had been restricted" in the
late 1m.

She was referring to revelations
following the death of J. Edgar Hoe
ver that the agency, raider his

Sesl-‘II,Page3

Following the resolution's 27-6-1
victory, SGA executive branch
member Craig Friedman, the reso-
lution’s primary sponsor, said he
was “elated the bill was passed."

“I feel that the sentors here are
not representing their friends, they
are representing their constituents,“
Friedman said.

In other action, SGA:

- overwhelmingly passed a bill es-
tablishing SGA “Gripe Forms.“ The
forms will allow students to call
SGA and register their problems or
opinions and have replies sent to
them.

dent lobbying opposition to House
Bill 251 which, if passed. would
allow the practice of prosthetic den-
tistry by non-dentists.

LCC Senator Chris Essid said
SGA’s overwhelming support of the
resolution should send a clear signal
to the University on how the student
body feels about the issue.

“I think it‘s about time that we
put a little more pressure on the
University to accept this,“ he said.

Education to bear

FRANKFORT ~ When Gov. Wal-
lace Wilkinson gave his State of the
Commonwealth address to the Gen-
eral Assembly last week. he called
on Kentuckians to make “common
sacrifices" to help overcome the
state‘s financial difficulties.

Last night, higher education found
out just how much it would have to
sacrifice.

Increases in funding for higher ed-
ucation would be only slight in the
next two years according to the gov-
ernor's budget released last night.

In addition, there is no allotment
in the budget for expansion of fac-
ulty and staff salaries at the state's
eight universities and only $13 mil-
lion is allotted for life-safety capital
construction needs.

tightened

In his budget address last night
before a joint chamber of the legis-
lature. Wilkinson said he made his
higher education budget based on
CHE priorities and recommenda-
tions for basic maintenance llll<
provements at universities.

Overall, in the 1989 fiscal year
higher education will receive a mere
0.5 percent increase in funding and
in the 1990 fiscal year a 5»percent in-
crease.

Those figures are considerably
lower than the 20-percent increase in
funding higher education received in
1986. and the nearly 20-percent in-
crease thcy had requested for
1988-89

However, State Budget Director
Kevin Hable pointed out yesterday
that in Wilkinson's budget the entire
state will show only a 0.6 percent-in—

SGA votes to abolish
executive VP position

By JULIE ESSELMAN
Staff Writer

The Student Government Associa-
tion decided last night by a margin
of only two votes to amend its con-
stitution by abolishing the position of
the executive vice president.

The amendment provides for one
elected vice president and a chief
executive officer appointed by the
president.

The bill needs another two-thirds
majority vote at the Senate's next
meeting for final approval.

A roll call vote of 25-9 with two abs
sentees fulfilled the required two-
thirds majority vote necessary for
the bill‘s initial passage.

“If the executive vice president is
an elected person, he carries his
own agenda into office which
might not be in line with the presi-
dent," said Brad Dixon, executive
vice president and primary sponsor
of the bill. “Let the president run
the executive branch the way they
want to."

Dixon was elected executive vice
president last year despite being on
a ticket running against SGA Presi-
dent Cyndi Weaver and Senior Vice
President Susan Bridges. This ap-
parently led to internal conflict over
Dixon‘s participation in SGA.

Last semester Weaver appointed
former Office Manager Ken Walker
as executive director, and he as-
sumed Dixon‘s responsibilities as
overseer of executive committees.

However. the bill‘s sponsors said
the bill is not a direct result of the
conflict in the executive branch but
a long-needed improvement for stu-
dent government.

“This isn't an amendment because
of any internal conflict,“ said Allied
Health Senator David Bingham. the
bill‘s co-sponsor. “It‘s just to shift
the duties of the executive vice pres-
ident to a chief of staff or executive
director. Ken Walker has . . . ended
up with the job and it‘s working now
with a somewhat appointed posi~
tion."

“This bill is not motivated by any
thing this year,“ said Dixon. He said
the idea originated before he even
took office last year.

“This is the best thing for SGA,"
said Law Senator David White,
“We‘re trying to improve a situation
that may have inherent flaws.“

There was some question, howev-
er, over possible political motives
behind the bill with student govern-
ment elections coming up in April.

“I have to question a bill abolish-
ing an office three montls before an
election,“ said LCC Senator Betty
Reed. “I don't feel it‘s right to abol-
ish this office at this time. "

“Even thtxigh a lot of us are think
ing of political terms . . . l‘ve got to
look at it from students' views,“
said Senator at Large James Rose.
“We should pass this amendment
and make it work like it should."

But Dixon told the senators to look

at the merits of the bill, not the poli-
tics “We‘ve got a history of four
years that says this (current situa-
tioni is not the way to do it," he
said.

"Stop looking at the political mo-
tives and look at the bill period,"
said Senator at Large Kim Fowler.
“Obviously it hasn‘t worked. What
have you seen that position do this
year'.’ The executive vice president
~ there‘s no need for it.“

Whether an appointed executive
director would be paid or not was
also discussed. Walker is not being
paid a salary.

“Ken Walker does as much work
as ithe president and senior vice
president i," said Rose. “This person
needs to be compensated."

However. Senator at Large Susan
Brothers dismissed the discussion,
saying. “SGA provides student serv-
ices. You don‘t do it just to get
paid."

Bingham expressed optimism
about the bill‘s final fate after it fi—
nally passed. “I'm glad to see it
through this time,“ he said. "I get
the feeling the senators had insight

. over political ideals. I would
hope for the senators' continued sup-
port."

While Vanderbilt hit 13 treys. Ken-

arithmetic wasn't right for the Cats.

“Tonight was a great example of
what the three-point shot can do and
how it‘s changed basketball on the
collegiate level," UK coach Eddie
Sutton said.

Scott Draud, a sophomore guard
from Crestview Hills, Ky., led the
way for Vandy with a game-high 22
points. Draud came off the bench
and buried six of nine three-point-
ers. That tied the Vanderbilt single-
game record.

The other mad bomber in gold
was junior guard Barry Booker, who
tossed in four of six three-pointers.
He finished with 14 points. Senior
guard Barry Goheen, another Ken-

When the Commodores weren't
scorching from the outside, they
were finding 7-foot mountain Will

eight of 13 shots in the paint.

Perdue‘s 17 points kept UK on a
yo-yo string, The Cats couldn‘t leave
the big man alone. That left the
Commodore guards alone.

Kentucky fought a game battle be-
hind Rex Chapman and Winston
Bennett. Chapman led the way with
18 points despite being plagued with
foul trouble. Bennett added 15 points
and eight boards. But it was all in
vain. Every time UK would fight
back. Vandy would break its back
with a three-pointer at the other
end.

"time we got behind, we had to
play catch-up and never seemed to
get over the hump," Sutton said.
"We‘d make a run and then Vander-

Vanderbilt rivalry
fuels Lady Kat fire

Iy 10M SPALDING
Staff Writer

In the unpredictable world of col—
lqe athletics, there is nothing that
pcturbs the Las Vegas oddsmakers
more than a basketball game be-
tween rivals.

When that happens, they say, you
throw out the records because any-
thingcould happen.

Chances are that will hold true for
the Lady Kats game at Vanderbilt
tonight.

The game is scheduled for 7 pm.
CST.

“The (game) that seems to be the
biggest with all the sports is Ken-
tucky versus Vanderbilt," UK coach
Sharon Fanning said.

Records are something that both
coaches would probably like to
throw out, regardless of the match-
up.

Ranked in the Top 20 much of the
season and picked in a preseason
poll of coaches as third best in the
Southeastern Conference, Vandy has
struggled in acquiring a 10-5 overall
record. The Lady Commodores are
0-2in the SEC.

“Vanderbilt has been in a recent
clump a little bit as far as two or
three losses,” Fanning said. “At
home (they've) played well but their
problems have come on the road."

The Lady Kats‘ can attest to hav-
ing the same sort of problem. Fan-
ning's 9-7 club has an impressive 9-1
record at home but is 0—6 on the
road. The latest setback for UK was

Saturday at Florida, 68-64. And Fan-
ning said it won’t get any easier.

“We are hitting people in tough
situations,“ she said. “Next year we
go to all these places where we beat
those people, so it’s going to be a
tough situation when payback time
comes along.

“Florida came here last year and
we beat them and we went back
down there (this season) and lost.
Vanderbilt is in the same position."

UK upset the Lady Commodores
at home last season, 74-71, when
Vandy was No. 11 in the nation.
They aren‘t in the polls now but the
incentive is still there for UK, Fan-
ning said.

“They've got talent and they have
a lot of depth," Fanning said.
“They're a good balanced team with
a lot of experience so I believe it‘s
going to be a very difficult game for
us. '

Vanderbilt is led in scoring by ju-
nior guard Deborah Denton. Denton,
the SEC's leading three-point shoot-
er, averages 15.5 points a game. The
Lady Commodores have an edge in
height. especially with 6-foot-3 cen-
ter Wendy Scholtens. The freshman
has drawn raves for her perfor-
mance this season. averaging 13.6
points and 7.5 rebounds a game.

“We're going into Vanderbilt
where it’s a great team that hasn‘t
been playing well,“ Fanning said.
“If they‘re going to have a best
game they‘ll play better against us
than they will against Tennessee,
Auburn and the rest of them."

OWilkinson unveils state budget

Continued from Page 1

sion of Bluegrass Airport in Lexing-
ton.

Training programs worth $16.8
million promised to Ford and Gener-
al Electric plants in Louisville are
included as items in the Bluegrass
State Skills Corp.

Wilkinson’s plan for a job training
program includes :3 million for un—
employed people to get tuition paid
at community colleges, vocational
schools or private proprietary
schools.

One recommended saving mea-
sure that cuts across state govern-
ment is a proposal to limit salary in‘
creases to 2 percent in 1989 and 5
percent in 1990. Raises of 5 percent
are routine.

The budget provides money to the
Corrections Cabinet for 2,000 additio-

 

nal prison beds. It calls for expand-
ing the 500-bed prison under con-
struction in Morgan County to 1,050
beds and possibly upgrading it to
maximum security.

Among other expansion items are
conversion of an unidentified build—
ing as a 300bed medium-security in-
stitution and the addition of 250 beds
at the Northpoint Training Center.

Wilkinson's idea to provide bond
money for water and sewer projects
was scaled back substantially. In-
stead of a $500 million program, it
will involve only $36 million in state
bond funds.

No money was available for a ven-
ture capital fund this biennium,
Hable said.

In all, the budget proposes the
sale of $303 million in bonds, but

Hable defended the action as routine
borrowing.

“It is not credit card mentality,“
Hable said

Tourism items, especially the
state parks, will also get additional
money.

An additional $2 million a year
will be spent on advertising Ken-
tucky, and money is set aside for
maintenance and construction pro-
jectsat parks.

Proceeds from a $15 million bond
sale will finance an expansion of ex-
hibition space at the state
fairgrounds.

In human services, the budget iii-
cludes 5 percent annual increases
for payments to recipients of Aid to
Families with Dependent Children
and $4 million for increased medical
care for children and pregnant
women.

OUK given little room for growth

the next fiscal year and 4.9 percent
in the next year.

The figures for higher education
are in line with projected figures of
state growth, Hable said.

For UK, those figures translate to
$227,494,400 in the 1989 fiscal year
and $240,526,400 in fiscal year 1990.

The University requested
$269,269,800 for the 1989 fiscal year
and 314,478,900 for the 1990 fiscal
year.

UK Vice President for Administra-
tion Ed Carter said Wilkinson's hud-
get means that the University will
receive only a $900,000 increase in
the 1989 fiscal year in funding over
what it got in 1988.

That money, however. will result
in essentially no growth. Carter
said, because most of the $900,000 is
figured into UK‘s debt service ad~
justments, such as the scheduling of
bonds.

In 1990, Wilkinson‘s budget pro-
poses an increase in funding for L'K
of $13.1 million.

Figuring in a 5-percent increase in
faculty and staff salaries. Carter
said UK would need about $19 mil-
lion next year just to stay even. And
in 1990, UK would need $14.7 million
to stay even.

UK, though, did receive approval
from the governor’s budget for some
of its proposals.

Wilkinson‘s budget calls for the
construction of a commerce building
for UK's College of Business & Eco-
nomics on the Lexington campus
and a second building for Ashland
Community College.

The commerce building will cost
$16 million, $8 million of which will

     
     
    
   
   
   
 

be funded by the state, Hable said.
UK must come up with private do-
nations for the other half.

Wilkinson said the commerce
building "will enable the university
to modernize and expand its
relationship“ with businesses.

The learning center at Ashland
Community College will cost $4.3
million. It will be paid for in state
bonds.

Wilkinson said that in his admin-
instration the community college
system will have an expanded role
in job training for the state.

While UK President David Roselle
said he was pleased with Wilkinson‘s
approval of the two projects, he said
he was disappointed that the gover-
nor did not provide for an increase
to UK.

“My disappointment is on behalf
of the people of Kentucky and more
specifically the many constituents of
the I'niversity of Kentucky - our
students. our faculty and staff, our
alumni and the hundreds of thou-
sands of people who rely on the
services provided by the Universi-
ty," Roselle said.

He said L'K would continue to
work with the legislature to gain
support for the University‘s pressing
needs. in particular for funding for
faculty and staff salaries.

The governor's budget also agrees
to fund the Japanese Saturday
School. which will educate the chil-
dren of Japanese employees at the
Toyota plant in Scott County.

Higher Education officials had re-
quested that the state fund its pro-
grams at 94 percent of the formula
in the 1989 fiscal year and by 100
percent the following fiscal year.

The state currently funds 88 percent
of the formula.

But over the next liii-niiium that
figure will fall.

State budget officials said yester-
day that in the 1989 fiscal year the
state will fund 808 percent of the
formula and in 199081 .Bpt-rccnt

Ken Walker, (‘lll‘l‘s executive fi-
nancial director, said that til". poi-cont
funding of the formula was llt't‘flt‘tl
just to maintain the statusouo lli
programs at the state‘s universities.

Developed iti 1983, lllt‘ ioi'nzula l.\

Budget figures for 1988 show l'l\'
with funds of $220.t;iiz.:too 'l‘hat fig

The governor said last night that
he will capture the 1 percent surplus
held by state agcncii-s and universi-
ties to combat the $53.7 million di-ti-
cit the statc is facing in the 1988 tis-
cal year ending June 30
