Senate votes to increase campaign spending limits

 

By Joe Braun

Editorial Editor

and Nicole Heumphreus
Staff Writer

 

UK's Student (ioventmettt Asso-
ciation is orte step closer to having
a new constitution.

Last night the StiA Senate made
changes to the constitution that will
permit presidential tickets to spend
up to $750. limit the number of
campaign posters per ticket arid re-
quire presidential candidates to car-
ry a grade-point average of 2.5 or
higher.

Most debate at the meeting fo-
cused on limitations for campaign
spending. The senate stopped short
of throwing out spending limits all
together. opting instead to increase
the cap for eaclt czmdidate‘ s expens-
es frottt $501) to S75ti

Senate Pro-lent l"""tt)‘ Bates
was one of the tttore outspoken ad-
vocates of the new spending limit.

"Most of us are in support of
spending limits. artd we have to
give it a chance to be realistic."

Bates said. “I don't think $500 is
realistic. I think S750 is a realistic
amount."

Senator 'l‘racey Rogers were the
ottly two settators to vote for itiiliiit-

”After having fun in two elec-
tions. l‘ve fouitd that tlterc is a lot

healthy child who is able to team in
the schools. then you produce a citi«
zen who is productive."

Ford seetned less tttatt pleased
with his own perf'onntutce. “Hope-
fully. i got all the tuntovers for the
whole season out of ttty systetn to-
night." he said.

Dent proved he had rebounding in
his system. ttot to mention scoring.
He had 14 points on perfect six-of-
six shooting but didn‘t classify him-
self as a scorer.

“Rebounding and blocking shots,
that‘s my role," he said.

The 6-foot-lO junior college
transfer notched game-high num-
bers with four blocks and 12 re-
bounds in his UK debut.

He also scored some key baskets
in the second half as UK pulled
away from the Raiders in the clos-
ing minutes of the game to earn a
deceptively lopsided win.

Wright State forward Bill lid-
wards said the game was decided in

is. to win the NCAA 'l‘ountament.

UK coach Kathy DeBoer said
she sees this as a great opportttnity
to prove what her tcrun cart do.

“Our team is very young, attd
they have teamed a lot this year."
she said.

’lhe Wildcats defeated the Blue

season.

 

Duke gave I'K all it could h tndle
in that match and DeBoer said she
knows the (Tats will have to play
better this time around.

“We thought that we were very
fortunate to win that match. Duke
played better than we did. attd they
gave us a lot of problems hitting the

the worst we have blocked all

FACT: Today abortion is
a safe, simple procedure.

At EMW Women's Clinic we know that one of your primary
concerns with having an abortion is safety.

That's why we wanted you to know that a first trimester abor-
tion is one of the safest surgical procedures performed in Amer-
ica today. As safe as a penicillin shot. Safer than a tonsillectomy.
And four times safer than childbirth.

And because the decision to have an abortion is never an easy
one, EMW has specially trained staff to discuss alternatives and
offer support and reassurance without pressure. Abortion and
other women’s services are performed by
physicians in EMW‘s safe and private clinic.

with the way the pairings came out.

“This was the best possible out-

“Most of the teams in our bracket
are teams we have already seen this
year."

UK has faced five of the seven
tetuns in the South Regional at
some point this year.

the two tetuns UK hasn‘t played.
't‘exas tech and litorida State. don‘t
figure to win their first-round
matches.

DeBoer said she sees this as a
definite advantage for UK.

The (‘ats have many weapons.
and on big points. they could go to
just about anybody, DeBoer said.

“When you play Horida. you
know they are going to go to (All—
American) Guduta Staub for big
points.“ she explained. “We can go
to Eunice Thomas, Krista Robinson.
Angela Salvatore or Molly [)reis-
bach for big points. That‘s a big
plus."

Notes:

-l:or those of you wortdering why
you will have to pay to see tonight‘s
match. here's the answer: NCAA
mics specify that all universities
tttttst charge for the match. and the
rules also set the prices.

-'l'his match will be senior Angela
Salvatore‘s final home match for
UK. The middle blocker is ranked
on many UK career lists.

-Should the Cats win tonight
they will move on to face the win-
ner of the Florida-Florida State
match. Florida. the Southeastem
(‘onf‘erence regular season arid tour-
nament champion. is heavily fa-
vored to win this match.

-UK is 2-5 this season against
teams iii the South Region. UK de-
feated Duke and Georgia this sea-
son. both at Memorial Coliseum.

-'lhe Wildcats are 6-4 in N(‘AA
'l‘ountament play. including 4-3 un-

Play deals with male relationships

 

By Jennifer Minton
Contributing Critic

For many fathers. it would be a
great shock and a hard struggle to
come to terms with a son‘s homo-
sexuality.

But Harry Mitchell has dealt with
his son Jeff‘s gay lifestyle. In fact.
he encourages it.

Harry and Jeff arc the lead char—
acters tn David Steven's Australian
comedy “The Sum of Us."

Harry. or Dad. as he tells every—
one to call him. has raised his son
on his own since his wife died near-
ly 20 years ago. Jeff is a plumber
who still lives at home at the age of
29. He longs to meet “Mr. Right."
and Dad wants to make sure he
does. But Dad‘s encouragement is
driving Jeff crazy. Whenever Jeff
brings a potential boyfriend home,
Dad wants to meet him and talk for
a while. This tends to make the oth-
er men uncomfortable because they
are not used to such an open-
minded parent.

Russell Henderson. a fine arts
professor of theater at UK, is excep-
tional in the role of Dad. He knows
how to bring bursts of laughter one
minute. then suddenly stir personal
emotions the next. The scene in
which he talks about the day his son
was bom is very moving.

Jeff is played by Kevin Nance.
Nance did a wonderful job showing
that all people deserve to be happy
in life. no matter what their sexual
preference. Nance made the audi-
ence feel a special compassion for

 

Jeff as he struggled through rela-
tionships with men turd his father.

The supporting cast comprises
David Tillman and Deborah (i.
Martin. Tillman plays Greg. a man
whom Jeff was romantically inter-
ested in: and Martin plays Joyce. a
woman whom Dad met at a com—
ptrter dating service

Both actors give good perfor-
mances. but they clearly are over-
shadowed by the strong presences
of Henderson and Nance. Hender—
son should be commended as the
dialect coach. The actors‘ Australi-

“'lhe Sum of Us" is an excellent

Paul Weller
Paul Weller
Go! Discs/London

 

By John Abbott
Staff Critic

 

(Tolor me unimpressed.

l felt a small glimmer of hope
when I heard that Paul Weller. ex-
leader of the magnificent late-70s
British band The Jam (and. unt‘onu-
nately, of the lousy mid-80s British
band The Style Council). had resur-
rected his music career.

i thought that maybe he ditched
those silly diversions into funk and
soul that he tried with The Style
Council and recaptured some of the
fire that made the Jam so compelv
ling. Maybe he had given up trying
to pretend that he‘s Marvin (iaye
and started unleashing nasty guitar
chops again.

Sadly. no. Nary a power chord is
to be found here ~ Paul still wants
to sound pretty. it seems. i was hop-
ing for so much more from him.

Still. even as soft as it is. Wellcr's
solo debut album isn‘t a total loss
by any mezuts.

Stirc. I‘m disappointed that he
doesn‘t mm the dial up to II. but a
couple of the songs here aren't all
that bad. "they‘re even cntcrtaining.

'l'he terrific opening track. “Uh
Huh ()h Yeh," lurches merrily
along, powered by Jacko l’eake's
grinding saxophone. It's a lot of
fun.

Even though the subject matter is
hardly uplifting — the song is a
middle-aged identity crisis set to
music — it sounds like Weller is
having a fabulous time singing it.
This is the sort of fire that Weller
used to have.

The rest of the album isn't quite
as fiery. but it has its moments. “l

Kentucky Kernel, Thursday, December 3, 1992 - 3

  

Didn‘t Mean To Hun You" starts
slowly but redecms itself into a dc-
cent song by the end.

"Bull—Rush" putters along very
nicely. featuring sortie inspired kc)-
hoard playing and wraps tip with a
curious knock-off of the Who's
“Magic Bus.“ “Bitterness Rising" is
one of Wellcr‘s more inspired retro-
Motown grooves.

The other eight songs arc. well.
not awful. They just aren't very lll-
tcresting. “Remember How We
Started" tries to be wistful but ends
up boring.

“Round & Round" tries to be
smooth. but it'll put you to sleep.
"(‘Iucs" features l’cakc showing off
his considerable flute skills, brri the
song never really takes off. Nice
try. Paul. btrt not quite,

"Kosmos" is in) interesting rdca
poorly executed. The slccv c lists
the song as being l2 tltlttttlcs long.
birt the music only lasts for about
six. the music quits, and five and a

 

half minutes of almost total silence
pass before the music returns for
one last ilounsh.

Pretty neat idea. except there's no
real payoff. What corrtcs after the
long break isn‘t a hilarious. punchy
ending worth waiting almost six
minutes for ~~ just a final wash of
drums and backup singers oohing
and :talrrng

I felt chcatcd. l could'vc til at
least six whole Black l’lag songs in
the time I w astcd waiting for the in-
genious cndrng that never came

The problem isn't with the instru-
rrtcntatiort. Drummer Stcvc White
lays down some tight. impressively
clean rhythm tracks l’cakc l\ a wet
t_\ good saxophone player w hcn he
wants to be.

l-vcn Weller. who handles the
guitars. bass and keyboards. pro\c\
more thaii proficient on all three.

.\'o. the musicianship isn't what's
wrong with this album. It's Weller
With tltc exception of “Uh Huh ()h
Ych." nothing on this album sounds
very inspired.

Maybc hc‘s bored. May be hc‘s
tircd of music.

Whatever the reason, it‘s pretty
clear that Weller hits lost his cdgc.
