Lexington, San Francisco, Nai-
robi, Cleveland and the Bronx
have one thing in common: re-
poned cases of AIDS.

And during a seminar at UK last
weekend, national experts dis-
cussed how Acquired Immune De-
ficiency Syndrome spreads and the
effects it has on social groups in
different geographic locations.

Several national experts on the
sociology and geography of AIDS
presented papers Friday at the
symposium, “AIDS and the So-
cial Sciences."

Peter Gould, a professor of ge-
ography at Penn State University,
used dynamic color slides to illus-
trate the effectiveness of geograph-

At UK’s Acquired Immune De-
ficiency Syndrome conference this
weekend, Fayette County Health
Department AIDS Manager Sandy
Joseph read a proclamation from
Governor Wallace Wilkinson, de-
claring October as “AIDS Preven-
tion and Awareness Month” in
Kentucky.

AIDS experts from areas hard-
hit by the disease offered advice to
Kentuckians and UK students on
ways to deal with and prevent the
disease.

Ernest Drucker, who works
with AIDS patients at Montefiore
Medical Center in the Bronx, said
that Kentuckians should realize
that “it can happen here. In an epi-
demic you have to think in terms
of decades.

 

ic models charting the spread of
AIDS.

“This is the first epidemic in
modern history of which we have
virtually no idea of the extent (of
AIDS) in geographic space,"
Gould said.

Because of confidentiality con-
cerns among those infected with
the HIV virus that causes AIDS,
epidemiologists are plotting an
inaccurate picture of the disease,
Gould said.

Simply placing a number of
AIDS cases in a county or state
outline doesn’t give an accurate
picture of infection, he said.

Gould showed a slide of AIDS
infection of a neighborhood block
in Los Angeles to demonstrate the
way the infection can be tracked
in detail, and therefore predicted.

UK students learn ways

“Kentucky has 300 AIDS cases
(reported). We have 3,000 in the
Bronx. Six years ago, we had 300
cases in the Bronx, so you can‘t
take comfort in those numbers.”

Drucker said that an “attitude of
denial and antagonism” about
AIDS hinders an area’s ability to
deal with treatment and preven-
tion.

“It's got to be okay to have
AIDS," Drucker said.

He said a community must be

able to be compassionate about
people who have AIDS on the
same level they are with people
who have other diseases, like can-
cer.
“From a public health perspec-
tive, the welfare of everyone is
closely connected to that of the
individual,” Drucker said.

Ron Stall, of the University of
California's Center For AIDS Pre-

Using geographic modeling,
prediction maps have been used
with a 96 percent accuracy, Gould
said.

“AIDS is not something re-
mote,” Gould said. “It is literally
all around us. The trouble is
that many young people exhibit
the well-known ‘immortality syn-
drome,‘ the feeling that ‘it can‘t
happen to me,m Gould said.

“We also know from many
studies in health education that the
simple provision of information
is not enough to change behavior.
There must be a perception of
some quite personal health risk
before behavior changes,” Gould
said

When people see the geographic

vention, agreed.

“It doesn't do any good to
squelch frank discussion about
AIDS," Stall said. “In my experi»
ence, even if a controversy is
created (by discussing AIDS), it
serves an effective public health
purpose because both sides of the
controversy are educated.”

Stall, who received a master’s
degree at UK and whose research
focuses on AIDS prevention in
the gay community. said, “There
are lots of gay men on this cam-
pus, and not all are young - some
are faculty. That fact should be ac-
knowledged.

“It makes a lot of sense to peo-
ple to group together to talk about
how they feel about AIDS. The
student groups and faculty mem-
bers should work with the Univer-
sity to set this type of thing up,"
Stall said, citing the highly effec-

Mapping helps researchers predict spread of infection

Portions of the Names Project Quilt, which is made of patches
sewn by the family and friends of AIDS victims, was displayed at
the "AIDS and the Social Sciences” symposium held in the Stu-
dent Center this weekend. The quilt has more than 10.900
patches and is now too large to publicly display in its entirity

Student AIDS education has
been undertaken by several depart~
mental offices on campus, includ-
ing Student Affairs and Student

The UK Student Government

AIDS at UK.

Gary Shannon. a L'K geography
professor who presented a paper
on AIDS origin theories at this
weekend‘s AIDS conference and
who soon will publish a book
titled 'Hzc Geography of AIDS,
said that the most distressing
thing he discovered in his research
I\ “the lack of information about

“We don‘t have broad enough

Rescuers
optimistic
in finding
survivors

Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Rescuers
euphoric over finding a survivor in
a collapsed freeway resumed work
at a frustratingly cautious pace yes-
terday, and earthquake-shaken
Northern Californians mapped strat-
egy for Monday's commute
through gridlock.

More than 100 people were evac-
uated yesterday afternoon from an
Oakland housing project located
within 10 feet of a four-block
stretch of Interstate 880 abutting
the portion that gave way in the
quake.

The evacuation came after a ce-
ment column fell from the structure
and new cracks were discovered in
the previously stable section of the
double-deck freeway.

Longshoreman Buck Helm, who
spent four days in a tomb of 1-880
concrete and steel, was in critical-
stable condition at Highland Gener-
al Hospital in Oakland with some
slight improvement, hospital offi-
cials said.

Engineer Steven Whipple, hailed
as a hero of the rescue, said he was
checking the fallen double-deck
freeway for stability on Saturday
when he spotted the back of Helm’s
head with his flashlight, and then
he saw a hand wave at him.

“It stopped my heart," Whipple
said. “I thought maybe the wind
was blowing and that's what caused
it. I thought I might be losing it."

Brady’s stock rises
after market crashes

Associated Press

WASHINGTON -— In the alter—
math of the Friday the 13th stock
market dive. Treasury Secretary Ni<
cholas Brady‘s political stock has
risen loi successfully avoiding the
pitfalls that cnsnarcd the Reagan ad-
ministration two ycars ago.

Before the tIlSlS, the low-key
Brady tended to pale in comparisons
with his predecessor, James A.
Baker III, new secretary of state.

But in spearheading the govem~
ment effort to prevent the Crash of
‘87 from repeating, Brady is win~
ning praise for deft handling of the
situation.

“It was clear that the govemment
stood prepared to help prevent a re-
peat of that 503-p0llll debacle," said
Allen Sinai, chief t‘t't -llt)llllSl of the
Boston Co. “The polity makers all
said the right things and helped to
contain any problems."

When the market dropped “)8
poian on a Friday two years ago, ll
followed with a Still-point plunge
the next Monday. This time, Fri-
day‘s l90-point decline was largely
otfset by an 88-point rise the next
Monday.

That success notwithstanding,
Brady hinted in an interview Friday
that he may soon recommend sever-
al steps aimed at promoting more
coordination among regulators. He
would not be specific about what
changes were being considered.

In a free enterprise system, gov-
ernment policy makers are not he-
ccssarily concerned with imposing
rules that inhibit the normal ebb
and flow of market forces. But they
are concerned when other factors,

—

ing the market plunge earlier this

month, Brady worked to have gov—
ernment policy makers from the
president on down speak with one

\OICC to pl’OJCCI an air of calmness.

This time, there was no verbal
gaffe to worry markets, such as
then-S EC Chaimian Davtd Ruder's
comment to reporters two years ago
that trading might be halted, a re-
iiiark wrdcly believed to havc led to
lunhcr panic selling.

Other key roles were played this
year by federal Reserve Chairman
Alan Greenspan, who also nungal-
ed the shoals of the '87 crash, tie
raid Corrigan, head of the New
York Federal Reserve Bank. and
Richard Brecdcn, the new chairman
of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

But Brady, who took the lead in
the crisis-management effort, and
his top aides at the Treasury Dc-
partmcnt are coming in for much of
the congratulations for avoiding a
repeat of Black Monday.

Lottery’s
new game
illegal a n d
irrational

 

Greg
HALL

 

 

The traditional fall meeting at
Keeneland — “racing as it was
meant to be” — is drawing to a
close this weekend.

But as this meet closes, officials
at Keeneland and throughout the
horse industry are asking, “Will the
addition of a gambling lottery par-
tially endanger ‘racing as it was
meant to be?m

The State Supreme Court ruling
in a suit brought by the racing in-
dustry, on the constitutionality of
the game, is expected to be handed
down early this week.

The proponents of the Super-
Sports lottery say that the game is
based on chance, due to the point
spreads counteracting the odds.
Meanwhile, the crux of the indus~
try’s argument against the Lottery
Commission‘s new game is the
amendment to the state constitution
that only permits games of chance.

Does SuperSports, a computer
game in which players select NFL
teams to beat point spreads, fall
within those guidelines?

The question then becomes, “Is
football a game of chance?"

Hardly. While there are many ele-
ments of luck that come into play
during gridiron battles, the primary
reason for victory is the strengths of
one team monopolizing upon the
weaknesses of the loser.

Similarly, as football is more than
just luck, handicapping horse races
is an inexact science which is in-
fluenced by luck.

This state should protect one of its
most enduring past times, racing.
However the lottery itself goes
against that thought. SuperSports
would have the greatest effect on rac-
ing of the all the lottery games to
date. Yet banning this football wa-
gering game does not negate the ef-
fect of the other games.

The suit has been brought not for
noble moral reasons, but so that the
racing industry can protect its collec-
tive butt. The handle at Churchill
Downs' spring meeting was down,
while concurrently the first lottery
games were started.

But protection of the pari-mutuel
dollar is not a valid question, at least
for the Kentucky Supreme Court.
The lottery's setup does not have to
work around the wishes of state’s
nine pari-mutuel establishments.

The lottery probably will lose this
case. But the lottery can survive
without betting on the NFL. The
racing industry also will dodge a bul-
let, thinking that the coun is pro-
tecting them, when in reality the
court only is interpreting the letter
of the law.

Racing will continue “as it was
meant to be" as will the lottery ac-
cording to what the legislature
thought “it was meant to be.”

The lottery will bring about new
games. The racing industry will
make new claims. And this ‘Hat-
fields versus the McCoys’ dispute
will fuel Kentucky politics through-
out the 19905.

Even though this year’s World
Series is bordering on becoming a
right of the Winter season, the deci-
sion by Major League Baseball
Commissioner Fay Vincent and San
Francisco Mayor Art Agnos to delay
Game 3 until Friday at Candlestick
Park was necessary.

If the Series goes seven games, it
will reach November for the first
time in history.

It won't feel right possibly ending
the Series in November, but the feel-
ing would be much worse if baseball
was being played and bodies were
still between layers of the Nimitz
Freeway.

The Giants as the home team in
Dodger Stadium? It‘s almost a con-
tradiction in terms.

As Vincent and Agnes said in a
joint statement yesterday, reported
by the Associated Press, “We have
agreed that baseball should resume
with enthusiasm. But Tuesday was
too ambitious.”

Cats break LSU jinx, win 27-21

Big plays were
factor in breaking
6-year drought

By BARRY REEVES
Sports Editor

Big plays. When a team makes big plays
— whether it be on offense, defense or spe-
cial teams — it usually ends up victorious.

Well, the UK football team, which has
lacked big plays in the past, made the big
plays and Louisiana State University did
not.

And the Cats (4-2) beat LSU 27-21 Sat-
urday night in front of 53,967 fans in
Commonwealth Stadium.

“That was the difference,” UK defensive
tackle Donnie Gardner said. “We made the
big plays when it was gut-check time,
when we had our backs up against the wall.
And I think that's a trait of a good football

LSU (1-5), which has been a perennial
power in the Southeastern Conference for
many years, has had a problem making the
big play all season and their problems con-
tinued.

“We just haven’t made the big plays all
season long, and tonight was no different,“
LSU coach Mike Archer said. “If we had
made the big plays this year, then we could
have a 6-0 or 5—1 record instead of the 1-5
record we have. We had the opponuni-
ties but couldn’t do it.”

Archer did not point to his team’s lack of
big plays as a reason for the loss. Instead
he noted that the Tigers “did not have the
effort as in our previous games. Our in-
tensity in the first half was just not there."

Of UK’s number of big plays, perhaps
none was bigger than the one pulled off by
Gardner and linebacker Billy Swanson.
With UK ahead 21-14, the LSU offense
was driving deep into UK territory with

just under 3:30 remaining in the game.

In the second half, little pressure had
been put on LSU quarterback Tommy Hod-
son, but Gardner broke through the LSU
litte on first-and-lO from the UK 24-yard
line. Gardner hit Hodson’s amt forcing a
wobbly pass attd Swanson stepped in front
of Tiger receiver Calvin Windom for the
interception.

“1 just tried to get in there and get a piece
of (Hodson) and luckily I got his arm,
which caused the pass to be wobbly,” Gard-
ner said. “And Billy made the catch.“

“All 1 saw was a wobbly pass coming
my way and I just instinctively cut in front
of the receiver and caught the ball and stan-
ed running,” Swanson said.

“Oh Lord yes, that was a really big
play,” UK coach Jerry Claibonte said. “it
stopped them when they had the momen-
tum. It was a big, big play."

“That was a really big play," said UK
linebacker Craig Benzinger, who had 20
tackles, including 12 solo, in the game. “It
looked like they were ready to make their
move and maybe take the lead, but we
came up with the big play when we really
had to have it."

The first play after Swanson‘s intercep-
tion, the UK offense countered with a big
play of their own. Tailback Alfred Rawls
took the handoff, went through a gaping
hole on the right side of the line, bounced
to the sideline and scooted 73 yards for the
touchdown giving UK a 27-14 lead with
3:11 remaining in the game. Ken Willis’
PAT was blocked.

“All I tried to do was hit the hole as fast
as 1 can and when 1 did. 1 saw the outside
was open and that‘s where I went and thank

Hodson breaks
SEC ’3 TD record
but not satisfied

By BRIAN JENT

Louisiana State Liniverstty quarterback
Tommy Hodson was not in the mood for
celebrating after he broke the Southeastem
Conference career-touchdown passing record
Saturday night.

Instead, the frustrated quartcibat‘k was
longing for a long-deserved win. and not
the 27-21 loss UK handed his team in
Commonwealth Stadium.

“I've played long enough to get this,"
Hodson said. “1 would trade ithisi ft ir a win
any day."
