As hundreds marched downtown to commemorate
the civil rights movement and its leader, one man
recalled his perspective on the struggle for equality

By Danielle Komis

ram—much ktnnrt

Former Lexington civil rights activist
Calvert McCann was in the front row to
hear Martin Luther King Jr‘s “I Have a
Dream“ speech in Washington. DC. , but
he slept through most of it.

“It was really long." he said. chuckling.
“I think I Woke up by the time he said. '1
have a dream.‘ "

McCann was tired that day. as he often
was in the early 1960s. A civil rights activist
at an age when most teens were thinking
about junior prom or getting a new car. he
split his time between school. work and
fighting for blacks' rights in Lexington.

He and members of the Lexington chap»
ter of the Congress on Racial Equality
staged sit-ins. protests and marches almost
every day in Lexington.

He remembers the injustice of everyday
life for blacks in Lexington during the ‘50s
and ‘60s.

Having to walk in a special back door to
the Kentucky Theatre on Main Street and
going up to the balcony for the special "col-
ored" movie theater.

Whites throwing things at him from
their cars and calling him names on his way
home from his job at the Michael‘s Photog-
raphy store downtown.

Struggling to march peacefully past
crowds of jeering. spitting white people and
not jeering or spitting back.

“I saw demonstrators downtown when I
came home from work. and I decided to join

INSPIRATION

them." he said. “I didn't like what was going
on at the time either."

So McCann became a part of the Lexing-
ton civil rights movement, which was large-
ly swept under the mg by the white commu-
nity

"Most of the time they tried to ignore
us." he said. “You could see it on their facial
expressions that they didn‘t like it."

But McCann didn't let the struggle go
undocumented he took pictures of the
Lexington movement with his small Pentax
camera.

Marching with a camera

Lexington was not the only place where
McCann took pictures and demonstrated.

In 1965. McCann rode on a charter plane
with King and his brother. a pastor from
Louisville. to march in Selma. Ala.

McCann remembered driving to the
march from the airport. worried that he
would get shot at.

“If a car approached us. we had to get
down on the ground." he said.

“I was scared for my life. really then.“

McCann‘s fear only grew once the march
began. The Alabama National Guardsman
assigned to protect McCann's group wore a
Confederate flag on his uniform. He kept his
loaded gun directed at the marchers. rather
than at the crowd. McCann said.

“When walking. he‘d point his rifle at
each of us." McCann said. holding his arms
up and peering through an imaginary sight

Freshman guard Crawford returns to team; Smith gives no indication of possible punishment

By Ben Roberts

in: krkrucxv kiwi

Freshman guard Joe
Crawford has returned to
the UK basketball team.
head coach Tubby Smith
announced yesterday.

Crawford left the team
after a meeting with
Smith on Jan. 10. one day
after he played a season-
low three minutes in UK‘s
6559 loss to No. 2 Kansas.

The freshman intend-
ed to transfer to another
school. but changed his
mind after learning he
would be penalized one

season of eligibility for
breaking the National Let-
ter of Intent he signed at
UK. UK athletic depart-
ment officials released
Crawford to speak to other
colleges but said a release
from his letter of intent
agreement was unlikely.

Crawford and his par.
ents met again with
Smith over the weekend
to discuss the player’s fu-
ture at UK.

Crawford said in a
press release yesterday he
was pleased Smith had
given him another

chance.

“I'm glad to be back.
and I‘m ready to give this
my all." he said. "I'm
thankful that Coach
Smith has given me a sec-
ond chance. even though
he didn‘t have to. That
shows me that he's glad
that l‘m a part of this
team."

Crawford averaged 3.8
points and 2.4 rebounds
over UK's first 12 games of
the season. His 133 min-
utes per game were the
most of any UK reserve.
but the McDonald's All-

‘\

American cited playing
time as a factor for his de
parture.

"We're glad Joe has
chosen to rejoin us."
Smith said. “Our commit-
ment to Joe remains to
help him become a better
person. better student and
better basketball player.“

Smith did not say
whether Crawford would
face any disciplinary ac-
tion for leaving the team
but did say he would re—
turn to practice immedi‘
ately

Crawford said the

most difficult part of the
ordeal was being separat-
ed from his teammates.

He said they were happy _

to have him back as part
of the team and that he
does not intend to seek
another transfer afier this
season.

“Since I've been back.
they‘ve treated me well
and welcomed me with
open arms." he said. “I‘m

back. and I want to finish ’

my college career as a
Kentucky Wildcat.“

In Saturday's 76-55 win at
Georgia. UK senior forward
Chuck Hayes. known more for
his rebounding and blue»eol»
lar style of play. became the
52nd member of UK's 1.000
point club.

Hayes. who reached the
milestone with a free throw at
the 17:29 mark of the second
half. finished the game with
13 points giving him 1.006
in his career and pulled
down 11 rebounds.

“It had to come sooner or
later.“ Hayes said. “I‘ve been
here for four years. Now I'm
on the back page of the media
guide with the other 1.000
point scorers. Big Dan (Issel).
Jamal (Mashburn). all of ‘em.
Maybe I‘ll go hang out with
them."

UK coach Tubby Smith
said Hayes has earned the
honor

“Chuck Hayes epitomizes
what college basketball
stands for." Smith said. “He's
just a blue-collar worker who
understands anti enjoys the
college experience He's one of
the best players I've ever

Life rarely affords second
chances.

Joe Crawford now has his.
Let‘s see
what he
does with
it.

The UK
freshman
swingman
made a
m i s t a k e.
Crawford
abandoned
his team in
the middle
of the sea-
son to go
home because 13.1% minutes
per game weren't enough.

It's a pride-swallowing
thing to come crawling back
asking for Tubby Smith's and
your team‘s forgiveness.

“I'm thankful that Coach
Smith has given me a second
chance. even though he didn't
have to." Crawford said yes-
terday in a statement.

But here comes the tricky
part he needs to win back
his team's trust.

Did he return just so he
can finish his freshman year
and then transfer. avoiding
the penalty he would have re
ceived by breaking the Na-
tional Letter of Intent if he
had left for good last week?

You'd like to think he just
missed his ol' Kentucky
home. And who Wouldn't miss
rooming with a guy like

Jeff
Patterson

coached and one of my most
talented players."

Bradley steps in

Maybe the biggest benefi-
ciary of freshman guard Joe
Crawford's brief hiatus has
been freshman guard Ramel
Bradley.

After playing 19 minutes
last Wednesday against Van—
derbilt. Bradley poured in a
career-high 14 points on five.
of-seven shooting in a career-
high 21 minutes of action.

Back-up DVDs for viewing on the go

S o
you’ve got
a massive
DVD col-
1 e c t i o n .
You own
all three
“Lord of
the Rings"
extended
e d it i o n s.
that ungod-
ly lO-disc
“Matrix"
collection
and all nine seasons of “The
X-Files." With such an enor-
mous financial (and to some.
emotional) investment in
such fragile little discs. it cer-
tainly makes sense that you'd
want to make backup copies.

Though copying a DVD
is relatively easy with the
proliferation of cheap burn-
ing tools in 2004. it's much
more useful and interesting
to make direct digital copies
onto your hard disk to be
saved forever or moved onto
your laptop with ease for
travel delight.

Before I even begin.
here's my disclaimer for do-
ing this: This process should
be used only with the intent

lan Conley

IICH COLUNNlST

to create backup copies of
DVDs you already own. The
Motion Picture Association
of America is now taking le-
gal action against movie pi-
rates not unlike the now no-
torious RIAA lawsuits
against music pirates. So. un-
less you‘re craving a nice
lawsuit and the ensuing legal
battle. stick to doing this
with your own DVDs.

First we need to take the
DVD and turn it into an .iso
file. Don‘t be afraid: the con—
cept of an .iso is very simple:
It's an image file. Essentially.
the .iso is a snapshot of all
the data on a given disc. Ac-
cordingly. it includes any
copy protection data already
on the disc. so you don‘t have
to worry about circumvent-
ing security protocols of
something you‘ve already
paid for.

To take this “snapshot“
of the DVD you're going to
need a program. and my fa—
vorite is DVDdecrypter. The
interface is user-friendly. so
much so that even the most
amateur of computer users
will be able to easily decrypt
and store their DVD into an
.iso in a matter of minutes.

One drawback to this
miracle of backup-technolo-
gy is that it consumes an ob-
scene amount of space. We're
talking around eight giga-
bytes per DVD. To combat
this shortfall I suggest either
buying a cheap additional
hard drive of no less than 200
gigabytes or check out a real-
ly neat program called DVD-
shrink.

The last time I checked. I
really never watched “The
Matrix" with the Mandarin
language track turned on,
nor was I terribly interested
in an expose on “The Lord of
the Rings" on-set catering
services. DVDshrink allows
you to easily trim away those
space consuming and unnec-
essary special features.

Now that we have our de-
sired .iso file the next step is
finding a way to trick your
computer into thinking that
this image is actually a disc
of data. The solution is to
mount the .iso into a virtual
drive program. Virtual dri-
ves are just what their name
implies — the computer as-
sumes that it has a new drive
with a new DVD (or CD for
that matter) inserted when
the virtual drive program is

engaged.

Personally. I'm a big fan
of DAEMONtools. but there
are various virtual drive pro-
grams. including Alco-
h01120%.

Utilizing this idea and
with an amazing budget. one
could easily create a home
DVD jukebox in the living
room allowing instant access
to your entire DVD library
without the hassle of dealing
with those terribly obsolete
and unnecessary discs.

But again. it must be em-
phasized that you should
only be doing this with DVDs
you have purchased and still
own.

Sound of

THE KENTUCKY mm

In real-life arguments and
simple discussions. not
everything is said the way it
is meant to be said or heard
as it is meant to be heard.
and topics are very seldom
seamless.

Plays tend to exhibit con-
versation in its most perfect
form. where the best come-
backs are always ready and
all the right words are avail-
able to explain even the most
inexplicable of emotions.

Harold Pinter has been
lauded as a great playwright
of true dialogue. in which
sometimes the words just
run out and silence is left to
fill the void.

He has said that people
use conversation as a method
by which to cover up the
nakedness and truth of si-
