‘prime

By BARRY REEVES
Sports Editor

The UK Ticket Committee de-
cided last week to take the first
two rows in sections 31 and 32
away from UK students and sell
them to UK boosters to pay for
Memorial Coliseum renova-
tions, UK Athletics Director
C.M. Newton told the UK Ath-
letics Association Board of Di-
rectors yesterday.

A total of 56 “prime seats“
will be taken from the students.

“These are the prime seats that
are being taken away from the
students," said Bruce Rector, one
of two student members of the
UK Athletics Association Board
of Directors. “The students don‘t
get many good seats for basket-
ball, and they are taking away
the best of those (seats).“

Newton requested that the
committee take the students
away from students and sell
them to boosters to help finance
the construction in Memorial
Coliseum.

Offices for coaches, locker
rooms, a weight room and team
meeting rooms in the end of the
Coliseumare being built in the
coliseum and being financed
with private funds. Construction
is scheduled to be finished by
mid-January.

Some angry
over decision
to sell seats

BY CHRIS HARVEY
Senior Staff Writer

Yesterday’s announce-
ment by the UK Athletics
Association Board of Di-
rectors to take away 56
student basketball tickets
and give them to boosters
was as popular with many
UK students yesterday as
moving Rupp Arena to
Knoxville, Tenn.

“Hell, we pay enough to
the school so we should
be able to see the team,"
said Angie Prather, an ac-
counting sophomorc from
Oldham County, Ky.
“This really hurts the stu-
dents a lot."

“I can’t believe they’re
taking away our privileg-
es, when we pay so much
money to go here,” said
Chris Porter, an advertis-
ing sophomore from Races

‘People’s horse’ Secretariat put down

By MIKE EMBRY

PARIS, Ky. — Secretariat, whose
I973 Triple Crown triumph
stamped him as the “people’s
horse," was humanely destroyed
yesterday. He was 1‘) — getting on
for a horse but awfully young for
such a great guy.

“Maybe he was not the world‘s
greatest racchorsc," his owner, He

charismatic person. The dream
is over."

Secretariat's 3I-lcngth victory in
the Belmont Stakes gave America
its first Triple Crown winner in 25
years. In a year of turmoil, includ~

Student leaders begin letter-writing effort

By ELIZABETH WADE
Associate Editor

John Elder is hoping that the
term that all politics is local will
pay off for higher education in the
upcoming session of the General
Assembly.

Elder, administrative director of
government relations for the UK
Student Government Association,
began a state wide student letter-
writing campaign to state legisla—
tors encouraging them to push for
more funding of higher education.

The management junior from

Owensboro, who also is the state
coordinator of govemment relations
for the Board of Student Body Pres-
idents, said he wants more than
150,000 students in the state to
lobby for more funding through the
letters.

“Just the thought of more means
better," Elder said. “Ten personal
letters really rouse their (legisla—
tors) attention."

UK SGA President Sean Lehman
said form letters were sent out in
the past but they were largely inef-
fective, according to many legisla-
tors.

“If you get pzrsonal letters from
students then that’s a lot more
meaningful to them (the legisla-
tors).” Lohman said. “I think it’s
going to be very well accepted by
legislators. Students in Kentucky
have some great friends in the leg-
islature and I have great faith in
those pushing for us in Frankfort."

State Rep. Ernesto Scorsone, D-
75th, whose district includes much
of the Lexington Campus, said lob-
bying with letters and other means
of communication to representa-
tives is an effective way to let leg-
islators know the students needs.

“I think it’s great more students
are getting active in the political
system,“ Scorsone said. “I wel-
come that kind of input from stu-
dents. Legislators want to represent
their district and if they get a large
number of letters or calls they will
respond."

State Rep. Louie Mack, D-76th,
also said it is effective for students
to write letters to their representa-
tives. “I pay a lot of attention to
someone who writes me a personal
letter,“ Mack said.

Elder prepared a packet of infor-
mation to be distributed to the oth-

er state univer-
sities. commu-
nity colleges.
greek presi-
dents, residence
hall directors
and residence

hall advisers.

Elder said greek houses are an‘
nouncing the campaign to their
members and the residence halls are
conducting mandatory hall and floor
meetings to inform the students and
distribute th information.

University ‘celebrities’ talk to new students

By JUUE ESSELMAN
Special Projects Writer

Tara Ruth received an unusual
call last night.

When the history freshman an-
swered the phone, she heard a soft—
spoken voice say, “Hello, Tara,
this is David Roselle."

“For a minute there I froze,”
Ruth said. “He said, ‘Do you
know who I am?’ I guess I sound-
ed stunned. I was waiting for him
to say I was in trouble."

But the UK president was call-
ing Ruth as part of the Student
Affairs phone-a-thon to freshman
and transfer students to ask about
their impressions of UK.

Roselle was one of several UK
“celebrities" who joined Fall Or-
ientation leaders this week to fol-
low up on new UK students and
answer any of their questions.

Ruth was one of the several stu-
dents Roselle randomly picked to
call last night.

“I didn’t expect it. It was like an

honor," she said. “He was real
easy to talk to. He sounded kind
of amused

This is the second year the
Student Affairs Office has con-
ducted a new student phone-a-
thon. said Becky Jordan, assistant
dean of students. Orientation lead-
ers are calling freshmen and trans-
fers “to see how they’re doing and
to ask if they have any ques-
tions," she said.

If needed, upperclassmen give
the students advice on classes,
campus activities or specific prob—
lems the students may have, Jor-
dan said.

The students whom Roselle
contacted had a prime opportunity
to air their grievances to the Uni-
versity’s highest official, but Ro-
selle said most of them had only
positive things to say about UK.

“I was lucky," he said. “I got
all kids who are doing well — or
who think they're doing well."

But one student who talked ami-
ably with Roselle for several min-
utes didn’t even realize she was
speaking to the president of the
University.

“I didn't even really think about
who it was,” said Wendi Pierce,
an undeclared freshman. But once
she was told who was on the other
line, Pierce said she was im-
pressed that she got a call from
the University’s president.

“That's really neat that he takes
the time to do that,“ she said.
“He gave me a lot of advice about
getting involved in lots of
things.”

Rob Matthews, 3 business man-
agement junior who shared a room
with Roselle while making calls.
said the most common positive
aspects of UK that students men-
tioned were the accessibility of
professors and the friendly atmos-
phere on campus.

UK Theater Department starts season with ‘Dining Room’

By HLNTER HAYES
Staff Writer

The UK Theater Departtnent will
open its 1989-90 mainstage season
tonight with a production of AR.
Gurney Jr‘s “The Dining Room."

The play focuses on the loss of
culture among the once-ubiquitous
race of white Anglo-Saxon Protest-
ants.

Patrick Kagen-Moore, the play‘s
director, said the work spans “a per-
iod of time from the 1930‘s to the
present"

“The play concerns WASP cul—
ture in the Northeast. and the
changes that modern life has
brought about in that culture." he
said.

“It treats to some degree the fact
that this culture is being lost," he
said. “Just as different aspects of in-
digenous American culture are be-
ing lost, so is this one. It‘s quite a
funny play. There’s a lot of humor
to it. It treats that segment of the
population very kindly.”

“Even though the play is moum-
ing the passing ofa culture of peo-
ple, I think it looks at this social
class in loving eyes,“ cast member
Billy Breed said. “Even though it
has serious elements, I think it‘s

 

“So, all-in-all, I think
it’s a really worthwhile
thing to come and see.”

Patrick Kagen-Moore,
Director

handled with a real light touch. (It
has a ) warm comic feel about it,
which I think will appease a wide
variety of people.

“It's nothing earth shattering or
avant-garde or anything, but I think
it’s really a nice. quiet, warm
play."

The play takes place in a dining
room involving 18 scenes and 58
characters, Kagen-Moore said. All
58 characters are played by a three
men and three women. Each actor
assumes about10 roles.

Breed, who plays nine characters,
said it is challenging to play so
many roles.

“It's been a real challenge devel—
oping so many characters who are
on stage for a short amount of
time," he said. “Also with all of
the costume changes — switching
immediately into character, and

making the characters as different as
possible from each other without
using any type of makeup. Finding
different vocal mannerisms and
physical traits — that was the big
challenge in this show."

Breed said the challenge of play-
ing so many roles adds to an actor's
versatility.

“It shows what kind of range in
characters you can play." he said.
“I’ve had other roles where I was
challenged musically. or dance—
wise. or just different genres of the-
ater. But this one is definitely a
challenge for the actor to show his
versatility.”

Kagen-Moore said audiences will
be impressed by the cast‘s and
crew’s accomplishments.

“It has a beautiful setting. I think
the setting is just outstanding and
the costumes are terrific," Kagen-
Moore said. “l’ve been really
pleased with the work of the design-
ers on this play and I think the ac-
tors are doing a wonderful job. So,
all-in-all I think it's really 3 worth-
while thing to come and see from
the design perspective and the per-
formance perspective."

“The Dining Room" will be per-
formed tomorrow through Saturday
and Oct. 12~I4 at the Guignol

Trading Places

UK President
David Roselle
switches roles
with freshman
Dawn Howard

TRACEY MINIMUM Stall

for a day

Roselle shows up to U.S. History class late,
teaches elementary calculus to students

By ROBYN WALTERS
Stall Writer

The professor was lecturing
about the U.S. Constitution when
an unexpected guest walked in
about 10 minutes late without a
pen or notebook.

UK President David Roselle.
who traded places with student
Dawn Howard for a day in a raffle
held by Pi Kappa Alpha social fra-
ternity, was about 10 minutes late
to his first class, HIS-108 taught
by the theatrical Mark Summers.

Roselle apologized for his tardi-
ness, but the disruption to the class
continued as television photogra-
phers roamed the classroom, trying
to get a shot of the sportscoat-clad
student.

After the class Roselle chatted
with a surprised Summers about
the U.S. Constitution. Roselle
apologized to Summers. explaining
that he was late because of a meet~
ing he had with a group of people
from off campus.

Before leaving for a Chamber of
Commerce meeting with Howard at
10:20 am, Roselle said: “I apolo-
gize to Professor (Mark) Summers
for being late to class. He really is
a good lecturer."

Roselle went to Howard’s micro-
economics class taught by Don
Soule. Some students as many
whispered to one another about the
new student.

Soule, however, carried on with

his lecture as if nothing were differ-
ent.

But Jeff Jones, a business man-
agement sophomore from Jessa-
mine County, Ky., who sat next to
Roselle in Soule’s class, said he
didn’t think the president’s presence
made things different

“It was kind of weird having peo«
ple snapping pictures in class, but
there was not anything different
about today," Jones said.

When asked when the last time
he was an “average undergraduate
student," Roselle replied, “Well, i
don’t know whether I was ever ‘av-
erage.m

Roselle said that his first experi-
ence with college was at night
school at the University of Pitts-
burgh, after he graduated from high
school in 1957.

Following economics, Roselle
attended Mark Peflley's political
opinion class.

Pefllcy introduced Roselle to the
class of about 35 students and Ro-
selle told the students why he had
dropped in.

“In this process, we found that it
was illegal to have raffles in Ken-
tucky, btit after talking to our legal
expert, we found it was illegal only
if we were raflling off something
of value." Roselle told the class.

The $1,000 raised during the raf-
fle was split between the Margaret
J. King Library and research for

multiple sclerosis.

Peffley’s upper-division political

 

science class can'ied on with class
and seemed to hardly notice Ro—
selle.

At 2 pm. Roselle, whose doc»
torate is in math, was off to a class
he could truly relate to: Elementary
Calculus, taught by Raymond
Rishel.

When called upon by Risliel to
work a problem on the board, Ro-
sellc confessed that he had hardly
been able to sit still.

With the ease as if he had nev er
left the classroom, Roselle took
the chalk and explained to the Ci(l\'\
exactly how the homework prob
lem should be worked and how
what they had just been taught
could be applied to the current
problem.

Roselle asked the class qllt‘\~
tions, drew graphs and got one alllv
dent to go tip to the board and ap-
ply what she had learned.

Mindy Morehead, an undeclared
sophomore from Lexington who
worked the problem on the board.
said that having Roselle iii class
was a nice change of pace.

“He was a good teacher. It would
be nice to have him all the time."
she said.

Howard learns UK red tape

By KAKJE UHCH
Senior Staff Writer

The president of UK arrived at
the Administration Building
promptly at 9 a.m. yesterday,
dressed for work in a maroon turtle—
neck sweater, green print skin, gray
hose and shoes.

Dawn Howard, a psychology
freshman, took her place as the
winner of Pi Kappa Alpha’s “UK
President for a Day" contest and be-
gan a ftill schedule of presidential
events and meetings.

Deposed President David Roselle
rushed out to History 108 — he was
going to be late.

The two exchanged roles as part
of a llllltirlclhlllg' catiiptitjittt xpriti
sored lw Pi Kappa Alpha social tin
ternity to raise money for the Mir-
garct 1. King i.|i‘l’ttl':v and rcsuarc’i

lle, anthropology senior Mike

Howard said she didn't have any
plans to implement an} new pro-
grams, but she added that «he
might make sonic “as the day goes
on."

One area Howard said she would
like to see improxed is parking.
“We could stand a few more park—
ing lots," she said.

Howard said that she felt one of
the University‘s greatest assets is
that “campus life is strong" and
that “people really get involved."

By 5 pm. President Howard was
back to reality. She was unavaila—
ble lor further comment - because
of btmd practice.

 

 

What would you do as president for a day?

While Dawn Howard did not
make any sweeping changes yester-
day during her eight-hour term as
UK 's 10th president, other students
said they would have implemented
several changes. Here's a look at
what might have happened if other
students had substituted for R0-
selle.

Joe Barnes. Russian jun-
ior

~“.. better day-care facilities for
students, not just faculty and staff.

0“... paid maternity leave for
staff.

-'... 24-hour study area. prefera-
bly in the Student Center.

v"... cheaper campus activities,
not just expensive ones like Excel~
sior. More free campus activities."

Veronica Duncan-Gordon.
communications graduate
student

~“The first thing I would do is re-
move (UK trustec Albert B.) “Hap-
py" Chandler from any association
with the University.“

-“... require that all fraternities
and sororities go through a preju-
dice-reduction, so we don't have all
these upperclassmen passing on
these prejudiced attitudes and rein-
forcing these attitudes in freshmen
because it’s really destructive.

o“... require all graduate profes-
sors to take a course instructing
them in the requirements from the
graduate school so they can intelli-
gently inform their advisees.

-“... fire half of the male faculty.
Replace them with female faculty
and half of that female faculty
would be black females.

~“Then I would retire.“

Flora Hall. economics
sophomore

-“... turn Wildcat Lodge into a
non—alcoholic altemative nightclub
for campus.

-.. bring women faculty levels
in tenure and salary up to male
counterparts‘ ‘.

-“... take a hard look at UK Food
Services, or the lack of them, on
weekends.

-“... free tutonng for all students
who need it, not Just Proposition
488."

Kim Hayden. undecided
sophomore

“‘1 would banish all organi/ed
sporting events.

-“l would give more money to
minority students.

-"I would give more money to
older students to help them along.

-“l would abolish all sororities
and fraternities and kill all pseudo-
hippies on campus."

UK defensive back Alben Burks
has sort of a split personality. Off
the field he is
known as a
gentle person,
but on the field
he sends out a
little different
signal.

“Off the field.
he's a real nice _
person who _ , ;,
people can real- 53. I
ly go talk to.“

UK defensive BURKS
tackle Donnie Gardner said. “But
on the field. I think I would de-
scribe him as ‘Hurricane Hugo' be-
cause he really puts the hurt on the
other team"

Fellow defensive back Chris Tol-
bert said of Burks: “He doesn’t get
mad anymore when something
goes wrong. He‘s a lot more under
control than he used to be, but he
still likes to put a good lick an op-

Burks, a senior majoring in so-
cial work who came to UK via
Hinds (Miss) Community Col-
lege. has changed a lot since he
first catne to UK.

“When he first got here, he didn’t
really talk too much,” Gardner said.
“He wasn't really outgoing, but
since he has gotten closer to the
Lord, he is totally opposite.”

Burks really attributes his suc-
cess to his relationship with God.

“My relationship with the Lord
has really changed my outlook on
life," said Burks, a native of Mon-
roe, La. “I am a lot more confident
in everything 1 do now than I used
to be.”

Burks, along with teammates
Billy Swanson and Tolbert, was re-
sponsible for beginning a team

Bible study on Tuesday night and a
team prayer session every Friday
night before the game. Burks also
actively participates in the Fellow-
ship of Christian Athletes.

“I figure that if nothing can help.
well at least the Lord can help
you,” Burks said. “I know that I
have slept a whole lot better the
night before a game since we began
the prayer sessions.

“I think the Bible study and the
prayer session have helped me and
the whole team a great deal." he
said. “They have really brought this
team closer together."

Burks said they group prays for a
wide variety of things.

“We pray for everybody ~ the
players, coaches, opposing
