Radio Free Lexington is planning
to ask the Student Government As—
sociation for a loan of up to $3.500 to
pay for construction costs for the
student-run radio station.

RFL representatives say a loan
from SGA will ensure that the sta-
tion gets on the air next semester.

The station had received 340.000
between the city of Lexington and
University for start-up costs last
year. The city and University also
contributed 315.000 between them for
yearly operational costs for a three—
year period.

“We’re asking for money for con—
struction so we can be on the air for
the spring of '88." General Manager
Scott Ferguson told RFL board-
members at a meeting yesterday.

However. this is contingent on the
UK Board of Trustees passing at
their upcoming meeting the $1 in-
crease each semester in student ac-
tivities fees for next fall.

The station had planned to ask the
board for a $1 increase in student
fees each semester to fund the radio
station. beginning next semester.
However. administrators and board
members thought that passing any
mid-year increase would be contra-
dictory.

The BOT has

taken a stand

ammumu

against mid-year increases of any
kind in response to the state Council
on Higher Education‘s consideration
of a mid-year tuition increase to off-
set a projected $9.9 million shortfall
in education next year.

RFL board members expect a fa-
vorable response from the board
when they meet on Oct. 20.

The following day. the SGA Senate
will decide whether to give RFL the
interest-free loan.

SGA President (,yndi Weaver said
she thinks RFL will get approval
from both the BOT and SGA senate.

RFL plans to pay back the loan
the first quarter of the next fiscal
year. The fiscal year begins July 1.

RFL has received $6.000 from stu-
dent government and already has
$9.000 on hand from money raised.

Weaver said paying back the loan
shouldn't be difficult because the
station will have funds available
from the fee increase.

“I couldn't ask for a mid-year
ifeei increase on principles sake,“
Weaver said. “It puts the University
in a pOSition of contradicting itself.‘

“If the board votes favorably. as
far as l'm concerned you‘ve met the
deadline." said Jack Blanton. vice
chancellor for administration.

As soon as the fee increase gets
approval from the BOT, UK Physi-

Effective lobbying passed condom bill

By (‘.A. DUANE BONIFER
Associate Editor

Going in to last Wednesday's SGA
Senate meeting. SGA Senator at
Large David Botkim was a little un-
easy. After four weeks of discussion,
the senate was finally ready to vote
on a resolution by the Sexual Safety
and Awareness Task Force calling
for the distribution of condoms on
campus.

Botkins was sure that 15 senators
were behind the proposal and anoth-
er 10 adamantly opposed it. He was
unsure how the remaining to would
vote.

However. after 1'2 hours of heated
debate. the resolution was over-
whelmingly passed by a 26-9 mar-
gin. Hours of lobbying and skillful
plaming had paid off. along with the
help of poor organizational tactics
bytheopposition.

At the senate’s first regular meet-
ing of the school year on Sept. 9.
Botkins and Arts In Sciences Senator
David Allgood a resolution
calling ftl' studyim the feasibility of
implementing cmdom vending ma-

rooms.

The aim behind the resolution ac-
tually was not to study distributing
condoms on campus, but it was to
place them on campus. Allgood even
admitted it.

Nevertheless, the resolution was a
wise move. Had they called for the
distribution of condoms at the meet-
ing. Botkins and Allgood would have
been seen as neglecting other mem-
bers of the senate on the issue. But
by calling for a study. Botkim and
Allgood were asking the senate for
itsinput.

Despite their willingness to work
with the senate. chances for the res-
olution passirg were not favorable
at first.

Senator at Large James Rose then

an amendment to the reso-

lution that called for the creation of

a task force that would study the

prevention of sexually trammitted
disease and unwanted quancles.

in the University‘s nest

DAVID BOTKINS

Rose said he proposed the amend-
ment because “we shouldn‘t pass
somethirg we really don‘t believe
in.“

With the amendment. Rose said he
was “satisfied that it needs to go at

and it‘s something the student gov-
ernment needs to look into. "

Whatever that meant.

Rose‘s uncertainty on the issue re-
flected how many of the senators
felt. Not many of the senators had
studied the issue a great deal and
needed more time to look into the
issue.

There were conflicting views from
the outset over what the Sexual
Awareness and Safety Task Force's
actual purpose was when it was cre-
ated.

Some senators thought the group
was to conduct an indepth study
into all the possibilities in prevent-
ing sexually transmitted diseases
and unwanted pregnancies. Howev-
er. other senators. along with SGA
President Cyndi Weaver, said the
task force‘s sole purpose was to for-
mulate a plan to distribute condoms
oncampus.

A week later. the task force held
its only hearing. a handful of stu-
dentsshowedupandaproposal to
distribute condoms on campus was
formulated. Not exactly an indepth
study.

See LOBBYING. Page 6

Once the station is operational. an
important concern of two RFL
board members is the actual length
of time RFL will spend on the air.

RFL Adviser Paula Anderson said

Tuesday, October 13. 1987

to consider loaning up to $3,500 to RFL

she thinks it is more sensible to
start off on a smaller scale such as
going on the air “for a few weeks, to
work the kinks out and get the staff
in shape."

"We‘re operating on a razor-thin
budget." Blanton said. “Youthful en-
thusiasm is wonderful but our expe-
rience tells us that it wears thin
quickly. Give us an operating plan

convince us. My concern is
(that) management . 24 hours.
seven days a week is like trying to
run an emergency hospital. "

But RFL Program Director Mark
Beaty told board members that not
being on the air around the clock
would be a disservice to students.

"1 don‘t think this limited service
bit is a good idea." Beaty said. “It's
tragic to go off the air at two in the
morning at a university. Kids are up
at 2am.“

A list of complete operating proce
dures for RFL is expected at the
board of directors' next meeting on
Oct. 22

"I‘m willing to be persuaded." An-
derson said “Part of my job is to
point out (to BFLI that things can
happen,”

"lt’s sink or swim at 24 hours ia
dayi.“ Anderson told board mem-
bers.

However. Beaty replied that it is
sink or swim no matter how many
hours the station is on the air.

Freshman candidates
to square off in debate

By J AYE BHELI‘IR
Staff Writer

Freshman senatorial candidates
will debate this evening between 6.8
in a forum in the Donovan Hall
lobby.

“The forum provides an opportu»
nity to introduce the candidates and
allows each candidate to express his
viewpoints." said Joey Schmidt. a
member of the forum committee.

“It‘s a shame it takes this long
into the school year to get an input
from the freshmen." said Cyndi
Weaver. Student Government Asso—
ciation president. “We need to hear
a voice from them."

At the beginning of the forum each
candidate will introduce himself.
Ten of the 11 freshmen running for
election will participate in the
forum.

The candidates are Mark Aveti»
sian. Michael Bell. Ashley Boyd.
Kimberly Cagle. Sean Coleman,
Kyle Higgason. Kevin Horton. Sean
Lohman. Holly Paulk and Chris

Price. (me candidate. Stewart
Weaver. will not partiCipate in the
forum because he is hospitalized.

“We‘re interested in how the
freshmen feel. how quickly they
think on the spot and how the candi-
dates grasp the functions of SGA.”
Weaversaid.

Freshman input is very vital be
cause the decisions SGA makes will
affect them. said Weaver. The up-
perclass Will be gone and the fresh-
men have more at stake lthan up-
perclassmen ).

"Each candidate will draw one
question at random, and a member
of the panel will ask the candidate a
followup question." Schmidt said.

The panel consists of two senators.
Kim Fowler. senator-at-large. and
David Bingham. College of Allied
Health senator; two Kernel editors.
C.A. Duane Bonifer and Thomas J.
Sullivan; and JW. Patterson. direc-
tor of debate.

Freshman elections will be held
Wednesday and Thursday. Fresh-
men need a valid 1D to vote.

‘Mailman’ delivers
when it comes to votes

Associated Press

LOUISVILLE — The candidates
names dominated the headlines on
May 26. primary day. but it was
likes of Richard Farmer who would
help determine winners and losers
and perhaps chart a small piece of
Kentucky's future.

Richard Farmer is a vote-fixer.

Richard Farmer is a pseudonym
of a real person _ a 47-yearold un‘
employed auto mechanic who draws
disability pay and refers to himself
as “the mailman."

“I deliver.“ he says.

With the stipulation that his coun-
ty and precinct be kept confidential
and the names of his contacts dis
guised. Farmer agreed to show a re-
porter for The Courier‘Journal how
he lines up votes. The newspaper
published his story yesterday in its
series on abuses in Kentucky‘s elec-
toral system.

Candidates for statewide office
need not trifle with the likes of
Farmer, who has a second-grade ed-
ucation. holds no political or elective
office and has no ability to to raise
the huge sums of money needed to
fuel today‘s sophisticated cam-
paigns.

But their operatives in the eastern
Kentucky county where Farmer
lives no him intimately. So when
Farmer decided to cast his lot with
Lt. Gov. Steve Beshear in the Demo-
cratic gubernatorial primary. it
quickly became a foregone conclu-
sion locally that Bastiear would fare
well in Precinct D601.

Beshear lost every precimt in the
county except 0-501.

One reason for Farmers success
as a political operative is his posi-
tion as self-appointed ombudsman
for Precincit D—Sol. When someone
needs a tow. Farmer has a chain.
When someone gets arrested. Farm-
er puts up bond money. When some
one needs a house site. Farmer
monitors lots. When someone needs
a job. Farmer tries to find one.

When election day comes around.
Farmer expects a payback.

“The ones i do favors for. I go
back and see ‘em when it comes
election time.” he says. ”I ask 'em
«for their votes. They know I
helped ‘em before. I don't have to
remind ‘em."

Farmer admits he bought votes
outright in previous campaigns. And
he admits to having had money -
big money —- to spend for his candi-
dates.

Last November. he says. it was at
least $2.000. tn the 1985 county
judge-executive‘s race. it was $4.500.

“From the beginning. i thought
the end justified the means." he
says. “Whatever the other side does.
you gotta counter them. if one can-
didate spends money and the other
don‘t. they're in trouble. That's a
fact of life. As long as there are peo-
ple who‘ll take it. there‘ll be those
who‘ll spend it."

For Beshear‘s campaign. Farmer
says any money he will spend will
behis own.

He hedges when asked if he will
buy votes. He says he may hire a
few “workers“ to hand out cant. a
few “haulers“ to transport voters to

However. Hooker's blues pos-
sesses none of the Chicago instru-
mental influences found in the music
of Muddy Waters or Howlin' Wolf,
both artists who came from the
same region as Hooker. Born in Mis-
sissippi. Hooker picked up the rudi-
mentary guitar techniques of other
Delta-blues artists. Carrying on the
tradition of Robert Johnson. Hooker

made a career of openchord, slide
guitar style. His songwriting trade-
mark is to carry on a call-and-re-
spouse session with his guitar, sing-
ing a line and then playing a riff in
response.

“There ain‘t many of us left —
maybe five or six," Hooker told
Mark Johnson of California Today.
referring to the blues purists of the
‘405. “We ain‘t gonna be around al-
ways. When we‘re gone, they’ll still
be people playin' the blues, but not
the way we play it. It ain't gonna
last.“

Hooker's songs are the product of
pain and prejudice. His blues is
stark and vividly emotional. On the
heartbreaking “TB. Is Killing Me.“
the imagery of sweat-stained sheets
on a deteriorating deathbed is ines~
capable.

”00710 COURTESY OF THE ROSEIUD AGENCY
to Breeding ’3 tonight.

At 70, Hooker‘s voice still carries
with it the range to trace the pain of
growing up black and disillusioned.
while offering up moody recanta-
tions of error-by-trial. Hooker‘s tone
isn‘t militant or offensive, but in-
stead contains a soothing tone of fa-
miliarity (as on “Whiskey and Wim-
men”), as if all internal grief stems
from the same personal confusion
found in all of us.

On a live collection, Boogie Chil-
lun, Hooker’s banter with the audi-
ence is nothing less than engaging.
He introduces one track with, “You
don't move me. baby." When the au-
dience responds in laughter. Hooker
returns. “.Ah you used to. honey,
but you don't anymore."

It is Hooker who, with over five
decades of blues behind him. contin-
ues to do the. moving.

Moscow Virtuosi at
UK’S Center tonight

By JODI WHITAKER
Staff Writer

The Singletary Center for the Arts
will host a performance of the Mos-
cow Virtuosi tonight on one of its
many 1987 U.S. Tour stops.

A program of Mozart and Vivaldi
will be presented beginning tonight
at 8 in the Concert Hall of the Center
for the Arts.

Formed by Vladimir Spivakov in
1979, the orchestra has become one
of the world's leading ensembles.
The members of the group are hand-
picked. and are all top soloists. The
tour includes performances by Spi-
vakov as well as vocalist Grigori
Zhislin, pianist Vladmir Krainev,
American trumpeter Stephen Burns
and American soprano Arax Dav-
tian.

Vince DeMartino, professor of
trumpet at UK, thinks everyone
should attend the performance.
“(The Moscow Virtuosi) is a very
extroverted type of group that gives
really exciting performances of
works,“ DeMartino said. “The back-
ground of the people is so different,
they have to interpret the music dif-
ferently." He added that the perfor-
mance should be a “unique musical
experience" and should provide a
“microcosmic view of a different
country."

Professor teaches
on pitcher’s mound

By STEVE may
Staff Write-

Good, sound unchanies are a by
to being a successful baseball pitch-
er. But that is easier saidthandone.

The small subtleties that affect a
skilled pitcher’s performance can be
virtually impossible to detect. Even
the trained eye of a major league
pitching coach can miss a hitch or
an inconsistency in a pitching mo-
tion.

Robert Shapiro, an associate pro-
lessor of health, physical education
and recreation at UK, has imple-
mented the use of cameras and com-
puters to research the complex mo-
tion of the art of pitching.

“It certainly is the new wave.”
Shapiro said. “Pictures don’t lie."

Studying pitchers at both the pro-
fessional and the collegiate level,
Shapiro's main goals are to apply
his research to help technique and to
avoid athletic injuries.

One benefactor of Shapiro’s re-
search has been former Chicago
White Sox pitcher Jerry Koosman.

At the beginning of the 1983 season
Koosman was the strongest White
Sox pitcher. But as the season pro-
gressed Koosman began to run out
of gas in the middle innings.

0n the scene with his high-speed
cameras, Shapiro discovered that
Koosman’s stride had increased dur-
ing his release. By changiru his fol-

ting more strain on his arm that.
necessary.

His problem diagnosed, Koosman
shortened his stride and finished the
season strong.

“it was an education." Shapiro
said. “it was a situation that waked
out well for everyone."

A more sophisticated method de-
veloped by Shapiro is the three-di-
mensional system of pitching analy-
SIS.

Since the complex pitching motion
appears in three dimensions, Shapi-
ro uses multiple cameras to digitize
variom angles of movement. He
later simulates the pitcher’s motion
oncomputer.

“You can look from any view you
want with the three-dimensional
technique,” Shapiro said.

“In a skill as complex as pitching,
you need to look at what's happen-

ing in all three different dimensions. 4

In terms of making measurements,
it’s much better than film.”

UK assistant baseball coach John
Butler said the team encourages
Shapiro’s scientific research.

“It helps us as far as making us a
better team,” Butler said. “Little
things you can‘t see with the naked
eye make the difference."

Enhancing athletic performance is
certainly important to Shapiro. But
the medical possibilities of his re-
search are endless.

It is very important to Shapiro to

UK Associate Professor Robert Shapiro is shown
here with one of the computers he uses to aid

help athletes better understand how
or why an injury occurs.

Shapiro is hoping to apply these
techniques to non-sports injuries

“We can refine performance by

identifying things that predict an in-

Viewpoint

SGA should vote
to give radio station
the money it needs

Seventy—eight percent.

That’s about the percentage of students who are in
favor of raising their student activities fees by $1 each se-
mester to fund a student-run radio station at UK. A recent
survey, sponsored by the Survey Research Center, showed
us that.

The Board of Trustees is expected to approve raising
student fees at its Oct. 20 meeting — but there’s a hitch.

The fee increase won‘t take effect until next fall. That
means that even if the board approves a fee increase,
Radio Free Lexington still needs $3,500 in construction
costs to get on the air next semester.

Student Government Association President Cyndi Weav-
er wants the SGA senate to loan the money to RFL.

We think they should.

Here‘s why.

Simply put, 78 percent.

We know that student government loaning money to a
media organization isn’t the best of all possible situations,
but students have shown their overwhelming support for a
radio station.

And SGA’s primary responsibility is to serve students’
interests. RFL is definitely one of them. On Oct. 21, SGA
will have a chance to show the student body that it is cog-
nizant of students‘ needs and desires.

An interest-free loan of up to $3,500 will almost assure
the station of hitting the airwaves early next semester.

Members of Radio Free Lexington have been trying for
more than two years to make a student-run radio station at
UK a reality. Every time the group thinks they’ve almost
conquered the last financial hill toward becoming a sta-
tion, something always seems to stop them.

This time there’s one hill left to conquer. SGA can fulfill
its role by helping RFL do it.

It‘s a move we urge SGA to make by acclamation.

Laughing at yourself

To: those special people finding
the “SOR 101“ letter to be the work

to laugh at myself i.

Of course, some persons do not un-
derstand what satire means, nor are
they capable of appreciating its
finer points. Its sole purpose is to
ridicule or discredit vice or folly.

I hardly think you, who found the
letter so anger-inducing, would not
have laughed had it been directed at
some other group (for example: the
football team. ROTC, dorm dwell-
ers. resident advisers, etc). All
groups have certain characteristics
that appear ridiculous to society.

All groups are open to satire. Face
it, you are not excluded from the
category of groups having ridiculous

characteristics that others find

amusing or pointless.

However, if even after looking up
“satire“ in the dictionary you find
yourself still angry at the injustice
of the attacks in that dreadful letter,
you will find yourself in good com-
pany. I doubt that many members of
the fundamentalist religion find
“Church Lady" very amusing, and
those poor British felt the same way

satire “Gulliver’s Travels. “
