ESPN personality
talks UK sports

SportsCenter: Rece Davis provides inside look
at sports broadcast journalism and his work at ESPN

 

BlTerra nansoaie

ASSISTANT SPORTSDAIU rbiron

It‘s possible to take the Duke fan out of sports broad-
casters and instill a little Kentucky blue in them. said a
SportsCenter personality.

ESPN‘s sports personality Rece Davis spoke on how
sports broadcasters feel about UK sports Tuesday night at
UK.

The Student Activities Board hosted Davis‘ lecture at
the Singletaiy Center for the Arts. Davis entertained and in-
formed the audience with a behind-the-scenes account of
working at ESPN.

Davis opened his lecture with a few remarks concern-
ing UK's quarterback Jared Lonenzen.

Lorenzen. who is used to comments about his weight.
has recently dropped quite a few pounds. and Davis com-
mended him for that. After spoofing Lorenzen's nickname of
J.LO with “J. dropped a load." Davis gave Lorenzen credit
for what he does on the field. “l think that guy is one of the
most entertaining guys to watch in football," Davis said.

And as entertaining as Davis' jokes about Lorenzen
were. he said he would not last long at UK if he didn't touch
upon the topic of Wildcat basketball. Davis joked briefly
about Coach Tubby Smith's nice suits and his newly signed
contract. And then he did what most SportsCenter personal-
ities rarely do; he admitted that UK was good. He said that
he regarded Kentucky basketball much as he does ESPN
and the Yankees w as the ultimate.

Davis said he and his coanchors are at their best when
they don't take themselves so seriously. But he knows that
SportsCenter anchors and other sports journalists are the
"voice of the sport.“ and there is some seriousness that goes
along with the job.

ESPN has taken sports journalism and given it a pop
culture twist. And Davis admitted that adding the twist is
one of the perks of his job. “I don‘t feel like I’ve worked a
day in my life. but I do believe lam really, really fortunate to
work at ESPN." Davis said of his eight years with the com-
pany. “There is a real brother— and sisterhood there."

 

Current war protests lack
violence of riots in ‘60s

Differences: Fear of draft, duration of Vietnam War,
Kent State killings fueled intense UK demonstrations

ByJonatlIanUpsoomb

CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The handful of anti-war demonstrations on UK’s cam-
pus this semester were quite different than some of the
demonstrations UK has seen in the past.

UK has never been labeled a “hotbed” of activism, but
there was a time when demonstrations against the Vietnam
War caused more violent protests on campus.

Kent Stateaftemafll

On May 5. 1970. a group of UK student protesters gath-
ered outside of Patterson Office Tower. hoping to disrupt a
Board of Trustees meeting. This event came just after the
tragedy at Kent State University, in which four students
protesting the .U.S. invasion of Cambodia were shot and
killed by National Guardsmen.

The UK group was urging the condemnation of the
killings at Kent State and invasion of Cambodia. Trustees
met on the 18th floor over the yells and chants of more than
100 protesters outside.

A number of these protesters made their way to the top
of the tower. but only 35 of them were allowed inside the
meeting. where they remained silent and respectful. The si-
lence was broken and hostility erupted as the meeting ad-
journed. however. when a student approached former gover-
nor A.B. Chandler as he left. The end result was a scuflle in
which Chandler punched the student in the face.

"it was a one-punch fight. and I landed the only punch."
Chandler said at the time.

That event marked the beginning of one of the most
hostile and violent days at UK. It ended with another
demonstration that began peacefully but ended in the burn-
ing of a building that housed the campus's Air Force ROTC.

At approximately 7:45 pm. the Student Mobilization
Committee. a registered student organization. held a meet-
ing that consisted of more than 300 people. Afterwards they
held a peaceful march. in which protesters carried four
empty coffins symbolizing the students killed at Kent State.

“I remember it beginning very peaceful. as were most
of the demonstrations at UK. said Joe Burch. former di-
rector of UK's Public Safety:

Later that night. a few members of the crowd began
hurling rocks at the windows of the Buell Armory and the
campus security officers Burch had posted around it. State
police and Lexington police were called in for assistance.

Just before midnight. on the corner of Euclid and Har-
rison avenues. flames consumed the all-wooden ROTC build-
ing that housed classrooms. office space and an auditorium.

The fire was the result of a Molotov cocktail thrown at
the rear of the building. and the heat was so intense that
nearby Blazer Hall also caught on fire.

Blazer had considerable damage but could be repaired
and l‘f‘blllii. The ROTC building. however. was described as
a total loss in fire reports it was valued at $74,362.

The next day. former UK president Otis Singletary de
scribed what had happened as "deplorable acts of violence.

FBI scientist to plead for lying

LEXINGTON An I scientist indict-
ed on a charge of false swearing will plead
guilty. her attorney said Tuesday. but a
Fayette (‘ounty District (‘ourt judge granted
the attorney‘s request to continue the case
until June. Attorney Larry Roberts told
Judge Pamela Goodwine that Kathleen
Lundy. who admitted lying in the case of a
man who was convicted in the death of a UK
football player. was out of state and couldn't
be present at the hearing Tuesday. Goodwine
continued the case until June 10. “There is
going to be a guilty plea." Roberts said.
Lundy testified in the case against Shane
Ragland. who was convicted in March 2002 of
the 1994 sniper slaying of University of Ken-
tucky football player Trent DiGiuro. Her tes-
timony about the manufacturing process of
Winchester. a bullet maker, was false. She
said Winchester melted its own bullet lead
until 1996. when the company actually had
stopped in 1986. In January, Fayette County
Circuit Judge Thomas Clark said Lundy‘s
false testimony would not have altered the
course of the case against Ragland.

U.S. soldiers kill 13 Iraqi protesters
FALLUJAH. Iraq w U.S. paratroopers
fired on anti-American protesters during a
nighttime demonstration. and a hospital re-
ported Tuesday that 13 Iraqis were killed
and 75 wounded. including three young
boys. Soldiers said armed men had mixed
into the crowd and fired at them from near-
by buildings. The deaths outside a school in
Fallujah, a conservative Sunni Muslim city
and Baath Party stronghold 30 miles west of
the capital, highlighted the tense and pre-
carious balance as Americans try to keep
the peace in Iraq. Americans and Iraqis
gave sharply differing accounts of Monday
night's shooting. US. forces insisted they
opened fire only upon armed men — infiltra-
tors among the protest crowd, according to
C01. Arnold Bray. commanding officer of the
lst Battalion. 325 Regiment of the 82nd Air-
borne Division, whose troops were involved
in the shooting. Protesters insisted their
demonstration was unarmed and peaceful.

s allows innlcram killings

W SHINGTON ~— The government
may jail legal immigrants who have com-
mitted serious crimes to ensure they do
not flee or commit new crimes while await-
ing deportation hearings, the Supreme
Court ruled Tuesday. The 5-4 decision writ-
ten by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist
applies to noncitizens who already have
served their sentences. More than 75,000
such people have been ordered jailed with-
out bail. Thousands of legal permanent
residents are now out on bail while they
await deportation or try to fight it, a
process that can take months or years. Fed-
eral appeals courts covering more than a
dozen states had been allowing bail in
some cases. Most of them could be brought
back to jail under Tuesday’s ruling. The
ruling was a victory for the Bush adminis
tration. which also is claiming latitude to
jail immigrants and to close deportation
immigration hearings for others swept up.

Strirers seize 97; 21 are Americas
LAGOS, Nigeria ~— Striking Nigerian
oil workers have seized 97 hostages, includ-
ing 21 Americans, on several offshore oil
rigs, officials said Tuesday. Some captives
said they feared armed rescue attempts
would end in disaster. There were conflict-
ing reports about whether the hostages
had been threatened. One wrote an e-mail
that said the hostage-takers warned they
would blow up the rigs if attacked, but oil
officials dismissed reports that any oil
workers had been threatened and said the
strikers appeared willing to give up. The
rigs, owned by Houston-based Transooean,
were drilling wells on behalf of oil multi-
nationals Royal/ Dutch Shell and TotalFi-
naElf. “Make no mistake of the danger
we’re in." one hostage said in an e-mail
message read by Jake Molloy, general sec-
retary of the Offshore Industry Liaison
Committee a labor union which has mem-
bers among the hostages. “If they have lost
everything, they will make sure we lose
everything. And that means our lives."
Western diplomats said the hostages in-
cluded 21 Americans and 35 Britons.

PROTEST

Continued from page I

“In addition to the loss
of physical property, the
lives of more than 100 stu-
dents were threatened when
fire spread to their living
quarters." he said.

Singletary, with the as-
sistance of former Gov.
Louie B. Nunn, called in
state police and the National
Guard to maintain order.

Declaring a state of
emergency, Nunn released a
statement that read. “I have
determined that a clear and
present danger to lives and
property continue to exist.
Therefore I am ordering a
sufficient number of Na-
tional Guardsmen and State
Police to remain on cam-
pus."

Charging Concerns

Some who were involved
with protests in the past said
there are reasons for the dif-
ferences between current
and past protests.

Uncertainty with the
US. role in world affairs
have fueled contemporary
protests; Vietnam-era con-
flicts were sparked by an in-
dividual fears the draft, said
some who lived through the
experience.

Events taking place then
are absent today.

The mandatory draft,
along with such events as
the civil rights movement,
presidential assassinations
and other political, and envi-
ronmental issues differenti-
ated the motives of past pro-
testers from those protesting
today.

“I think the reasons are
definitely different," said
Burch.

“Because of the draft, a
lot of young people at that
time would say they were
randomized by it so there
were a lot of protests and sit-
ins in response to it. The
whole country erupted."

John Herbst, now direc-
tor of the Student Center,
was attending State Univer.

sity of New York at Geneseo
at the time and recalls the
mixed emotions on that
campus.

“I can tell you that the
emotions surrounding the
draft were very intense."
Herbst said. “I remember
watching television with
friends and listening to num-
bers being called, some of
which were assigned to my
closest friends who were sit-
ting in the same room.
That’s when it really hit
home."

The length of the war
was another important as-
pect that is not a factor in
the current war, Herbst said.

“It's important to re-
member that the Vietnam
War lasted for years," Herbst
said. “So the length of war
must be considered along
with everything else that
was happening at that time."

The conflict also pro
duced many other forms of
expression.

Teach-ins, the Bread and
Puppet Theater and Guerilla
Theater became popular
forms of education and
artistic expression on cam-
puses across the country.
There was also an explosion
of live concerts as popular
artists looked to play col-
leges and universities to
voice their opinions.

“No one person orches-
trated the movement; it was
a massive voice of concern,"
Herbst said.

This era also marked
the first time that faculty
and administrators worked
closely with students on
these issues and allowed for
more academic freedom of
expression than ever before,
he said.

“I would say that we
were the first generation of
students that had the back-
ing of faculty and adminis-
tration with regards to soci-
etal issues. They (faculty
and administration)
stressed that it was only
right to voice your opin-
ions," Herbst said.

“I could not feel more
blessed or privileged that I
was a college student at that
time period," he said.

Woman’s talent grows

Talent: Emily Haqihara’s music is gaining popularity

By Sarah Zopti

Eire—[WWW

There's more to her
than meets the eye.

Emily Hagihara writes
her own music. released
her own album. serves as
her own publicist and
waits tables at Aladdin's
restaurant.

“I play the guitar be-
cause it is something I en-
joy. Aladdin's just helps pay
the bills." Hagihara said.

Since age 16, Hagihara's
mind was set. Inspired by
artists like Tori Amos and
Ani Difranco. Hagihara de-
cided she wanted to quit
singing along to CDs and
start making her own music.

“At first my playing was

just something I did in my
freetime. Now I want to
make it a career." Hagihara
said.

Hagihara graces the
stages of local bars and
clubs around Lexington and
the surrounding area. She
is scheduled to play at Mia's
tonight.

“I love playing in Lex-
ington. but my goal is to
eventually take my music
on the road to places in
Chicago and New York."
Hagihara said.

Liam Wilson. a music
teacher who has been Hagi-
hara's instructor for 10
years. said she is the kind
of talent that makes his
teaching worthwhile.

"Emily is so talented
and a tremendous inspira-
tion to me as a teacher."
Wilson said.

“She is unique because
unlike a lot of people who
are as gifted as her. she
doesn't let her ego go to her
head."

Hagihara‘s talent has
also caught the ear of Katie
Meyer. a political science
junior.

“Emily is becoming an
incredible part of the Lex-
ington art scene that many
people have yet to experi-
ence." Meyer said.

Mastering her art is a
challenge in itself. but it
seems Hagihara has to work
even harder to get her name
out to venues.

She said she has taken a
year off of school to allow

herself the time to book
venues and get closer to her
goal.

“It can be hard to find
the right people to talk to.
and I do most of it myself."
Hagihara said. “I just go to
the places and give them a
copy of my new CD."

Hagihara is also look-
ing to create a three-person
band.

“I want to develop a big-
ger following and I am look-
ing for a bass player and
drummer right now."

ning. The inning was high
lighted by Lipscomb first
baseman Todd Boucher‘s
grand slam home run that
gave the Bisons (16-28) a lead
the Cats wouldn't be able to
overcome.

The Bisons led 9-3 after
three innings. and UK‘s
starting pitcher didn't even
make it out of the third in-
ning. Mark Galvin (23) got
the loss after giving up seven
runs in 1.2 innings.

“Mark has given us some
good quality starts this sea-
son, but tonight just wasn't
his night." said coach Keith
Madison on the performance
of his starting pitcher.

After Jimmy Rose al-
lowed two runs in one inning
of relief of Galvin. Matt

Scott and James Rodriguez
held the Bisons scoreless for
the final 61 innings of the
game.

Scott allowed four hits
and Rodriguez walked two to
keep the Cats within six of
the Bisons.

The Cats got back in the
game with one run in the
fifth. two in the seventh and
one in the eighth. But UK
failed to complete the come-
back after a scoreless ninth
inning.

“We have to keep a posi-
tive mental approach head-
ing into tomorrow‘s game."
Madison said yesterday after
the loss.

The Cats host the
Colonels of Eastern Ken-
tucky University. who lost
two of three to Eastern Illie
nois last weekend. today at
Cliff Hagan Stadium. UK
also lost to Eastern Illinois
this season.

Madison said his start-
ing pitching has to perform
better against the Colonels.

“We have to get a good
start from our starting pitch-
er and we should have
enough strong arms in the
bullpen to back him up."
Madison said.

Opening pitch is sched-
uled for 6 pm.

Mitch Barnhart. UK's
athletic director. is impressed.

“I think she’s put together
a terrific staff. and I think it
will pay dividends for us in re-
cruiting." said Barnhart.
DeMoss‘ faithful contact
throughout her transition.

“I want to give her all the
support she needs." he said.

DeMoss is also busy mov-
ing into her office in Memori-
al Hall. Barnhart moved out
of the office ,. which has a
plush couch and enough
space to fit a few basketball
teams and let her have it to
foster equity with the men's
and women‘s teams. he said.

BUILDING A PROGRAM

DeMoss, a twig~armed
woman of 110 pounds. sits at
an oversized wooden desk in
her office. her brown eyes
wandering across the room as
she considers her new job.

She smiles.

“I always knew I‘d even-
tually take over a program,"
she said.

Coming to Kentucky was
an easy choice for DeMoss.
who considered jobs at such
universities as Ohio State and
the University of Nebraska.

Kentucky was different.

UK had what she wanted:
a tradition of basketball. A
“homey feeling.“ Blue as a
school color ~ it works better
with her skin tone than the
Tennessee orange.

“Orange kind of washes
me out." she said.

And she was offered

$300000 a year to work here.
The timing was good.
“Kentucky came at a time
in my career when I was will
ing to take a job." she said.
DeMoss. 47. began her ca
reer coaching as an assistant
at Memphis State University.
In 1979. at age 23. she moved
to Florida to coach the Flori-
da Lady Gators. She left be-
cause few people at the school
cared about the team
“There wasn’t a huge lev-
el of commitment.“ she said.

So she found her way to
Tennessee. by the side of
Summitt. now one of her clos-
est friends. Since she's moved.
they talk almost every night.
“We probably talk more now
than we did when I was down
there.“ DeMoss said.

And though it was sad to
leave Summitt and the friends
she‘s made in 18 years at UT.
she’s excited to be a head
coach and build a program.

“I always wanted to be a
coach,“ said DeMoss. who
started playing basketball at
age 11 and couldn‘t stop. “I
love teaching. and I really en-

joy working with young peo—

ple — not to say they don‘t
aggravate me sometimes and
get on my nerves — but I en-

joy watching them grow."

Barnhart announced
DeMoss hiring during spring
break, so she had to wait to
meet the entire team.

Jenny Pfeitfer. a guard.
was in tovm that day and met
DeMoss. “l was nervous." she
remembers. “I felt like I was
starting over with everything
again. I'm sure she could tell.

“Once we started talking.
I realized she's human.“

DeMoss met the res
