Wethington urges officials not to cut funding

 

By Brian Bennett
Senior Staff Writer

 

UK President Charles Wethington
has sent a memo to state officials
urging them to exempt higher edu-
cation if shortfalls in state revenues
cause another budget cut.

Numbers released Tuesday gave
some hope that there may not need
to be another cut.

“We understand and appreciate
the revenue problems of the state,“
Wethington said in the memo, “but

. we certainly hope that the dis-

proportionate share of the reduc-
tions which higher education has al-
ready assumed will be taken into
consideration and that higher educa-
tion will be exempted from any ad-
ditional cuts.“

State officials told the eight pub-
lic universities last month to submit
a contingency plan by last Friday
detailing each school‘s procedures
to handle a possible 2 percent re-
duction in state appropriations.

The memorandum was issued af-
ter budget directors announced an-
other shortfall in state revenue. The

 

 

 

 

past two times the state had revenue
shortfalls, the public universities re-
ceived budget cuts — including
more than $26 million in reductions
at UK.

A big jump in General Fund tax
receipts in October lessens the like-
lihood of a budget cut this year. but

cost-cutting measures will remain
in place, Cabinet Secretary Kevin
liable said Tuesday.

October's total receipts of
$344.9 million were ll.l percent
more than the satne month a year
ago. The increase means that for
the first time this fiscal year. Ken-
tucky‘s General Fund is taking fit
more money than it did last year.

The General Fund is now it}
percent above the same period a
year ago. But to meet revenue pro
jections for the year. the General
Fund must grow by 5.2 percent.

 

Snuff use
linked to
baseball

By Bryan Clark
Contributing Writer

 

 

Smokeless tobacco can result
in oral cancer. yet use among
baseball players and many young
men is growing rapidly, a dentist-
ry official said yesterday.

John Greene. dean of the Uni-
versity of California at San Fran-
cisco's School of Dentistry. said
young men start using chewing
tobacco and snuff because they
see major league players using it.

The Kentucky native. who
spoke at UK Hospital. based his
comments on his three-year study
of smokeless tobacco use among
major league baseball teams and
the recent increase in its use.

Greene said that after a World
Series game he called then-
comntisioncr of Major League
Baseball, Peter Ueberroth, and
told him that baseball had a to-
bacco problem.

Uebcrroth asked Greene to
send him a proposal that eventu-
ally led to the study.

The study was conducted in
Arizona during spring training of
1988, ‘89 and ’90, and included
oral exams of players from seven
major league and five minor
league teams.

The study found that almost 40
percent of minor league and ma-
jor league players used smokeless
tobacco.

“Most of them had started by
the time they were 15," Greene
said. “I understand now that they
are even passing (free samples)
out to some of the little league
teams.”

Dr. Tim Smith, professor of
oral health science at UK, said he
was shocked when he heard that

 

 

 

 

 

 

some little league coaches were
handing it out to their players.

“Selling (smokeless tobacco) is
one thing, but when they start
marketing samples to little lea-
guers, that's when I get upset,"
Smith said.

The study also found that al-
most 50 percent of the players
who used tobacco had a pre-
cancerous lesion.

About 3 to 6 percent of such le-
sions usually result in oral can-
cer.

“They actually cook their lips
(by using tobacco)” Green said
of the players.

He also said that some players
are so dependent on the snuff, or
“dip," and chew that when their
mouths are sutured to close the
lesions, they go back to their

Although studies have proven that smokeless tobacco can result in oral cancer, its use
among baseball players and young men ls on the rise.

lockers and take out another dip
to relieve the stress.

The study found that the likeli-
hood of having a lesion was
much greater for snuff than it was
for chewing tobacco.

The highest percentage of like-
lihood for lesions using snuff was
about 84 percent. compared to 30
percent for players who use
chewing tobacco.

Greene said that Copenhagen
and Skoal are the two worst
brands of snuff. They also are the
most popular.

Year-round tobacco users pre-
fer these brands because they ab~
sorb more readily and have a
“kick." Greene said.

About 90 percent of the players

who use snuff year-round eventu-
ally develop lesions in their

mouths. btit this fact coupled
with pictures of oral cancer still
cannot get some players to quit.
he said.

Greene said Sl percent of the
players who use smokeless to,
bacco only use it during the sea-
son mainly because they see
their teammates doing it.

He also said many young peo
ple carry tobacco cans in their
back pockets just to forrrt a ring.

“It's such a fashion in some
parts of the country that the kids
take an empty tin and carry it in
their pocket." he noted.

Greene said that smokeless to-
bacco use is a growing problem
in the United States and that he is
going to continue to work with
baseball in help educate players
and deter young people front be
ginning the habit.

 

 

Hepatitis B spreading rapidly on campuses

 

By Monica Bryan
Staff Writer

 

Hepatitis B. a highly contagious
and potentially deadly virus, is rap-
idly spreading in the United States
.__ especially among the college-
age population.

About 75 percent of all cases
strike adolescents and young adults
between the ages of 15 and 39, ac-
cording to the American College
Health Association. During the past
10 years, cases of the sexually
transmitted disease have increased
50 percent, infecting 300,000 peo-
ple annually.

Even students who feel healthy
and perfectly normal can have the
virus, which is linked to 14 deaths
each day, said Pam Woodmm.
health educator and nurse practi-
tioner at the UK Hospital.

Symptoms include loss of appe-
tite, abdominal pain, yellowing of
the skin and arthritis, but, Woo-
drum said, 50 to 67 of infected peo
ple have no symptoms.

Of the people who do experience
symptoms, Woodrum said most
find that they show up gradually
and disappear. Others become ex-
tremely ill.

Many times, the symptoms are
overlooked because they resemble
symptoms common to other infec-
tions and the virus goes undetected,
she said

and, if left untreated, cause irrepara-
ble damage to the liver. Woodrum
said that in the mildcst cases some
carriers of the virus will rid their
own systems of it within about six
months.

Others become carriers for the
rest of their lives, spreading the vi-
rus. The American College Health
Association estimates that one in
20 people have been infected with
virus at some point in their lives.

The hepatitis B virus is far more
widespread and 100 times more
contagious than the AIDS virus. It
can be transmitted by sexual inter-
course, as well as by other types of
sexual activity.

Infection also can occur if some-
one is exposed to an infected per-
son‘s blood through cuts, open
sores or mucous membranes. or by
receiving infected blood products.

Woodrum said the virus also can
be spread by sharing personal items
like razors or toothbrushes. And
sharing any type of needle, includ-
ing those used for steroid injec—
tions, ear piercing or tattoos can
spread the virus. as well, she said.

Although there is no cure for
hepatitis B, it is preventable by vac-
cination.

The hepatitis B vaccine is basi-
cally risk-free, and Woodrum cn-
couraged students to get vaccinat-
ed.

With the slow start. the General
Fund must grow by 7.4 percent ill

dictioris.
