United Way leaps campaign, hurdle

Campus drive surpasses goal .

 

By Chuck Bryant
Contributing Writer

 

The UK United Way campaign
has exceeded its goal for the 1993
fall drive, officials announced yes-
terday.

“We found out this week that our
total so far is $409,310,“ Paula
Pope, co-chairwoman of the UK
United Way fund-raising cam-
paign. said.

“We have tried to compress the
campaign in the last couple of
weeks, and we were happy to find
out we had exceeded the
$395,000," she said.

That was a significant increase
compared to last year’s tally, which
fell just short of the 5371.000 goal
by the official end of the fall fund
drive.

The 1992 drive finished the year.
however, with more than $392,000.

“The increase in the goal is usu-
ally what happens when the chair-
people change every year," Pope
said.

“But it just didn’t occur at UK.
There was an increase at the na-
tional level as well."

Although there are no official
figures. Pope said one of the many
reasons that the campaign exceed-
ed its goal was an increased num-
ber of new contributions.

There also was an increase in

LOS ANGELES — Rain-
stontis washed mud and
rocks off hills left bare by
devastating wildfires yester-
day, flooding homes and
closing highways.

The slides were the first of
many expected in the wake of
fires that burned more than
1.000 structures, killed three
people and left huge stretches
of hills bare above neighbor-
hoods in Laguna, Malibu, Al<
tadena and elsewhere.

“I woke up with the sound
of rain and boulders clashing
as they crashed into each oth-
er coming down the hill,"
said Susanne Dale. who aban-
doned her laguna Beach
home after a flash flood
swept mud into it and carried
a neighbor‘s small car more
than 20 feet into a tree.

Dale's small rented house
was one of three homes se-
verely damaged in a gully be-
low a burned area. The others
were apanments where mud
was several feet thick.

Water. mud and rocks
washed across 20 to 25
homes in the neighborhood.
causing mainly minor dam—
age. Richard Richardson. 3
Laguna fire spokesman, said
the area got more than half an
inch of rain early yesterday.

rocks, branches and other de~
bris into a storm drain, plug-
ging it and sending the flood
toward houses.

No injuries were reported.
California Highway Patrol
Officer Robert Polzin said
two drivers abandoned their
cars on a highway after mud,
rocks and trees cascaded ofT
bumed hills. Two Orange
County commuter routes
were closed by the slides.

“There’s just nothing to
hold back the water," Polzin
said.

Scott Entrckin, a forecaster
for the National Weather Ser-
vice. said there was a 60 per-
cent chance of more rain to
day.

 

dollar amounts from regular con-
tributors, she said.

Jon Zachen, co—chairman of the
UK United Way fund-raising cam-
paign. said another reason the goal
was exceeded was the time the
campaign organizers spent training
volunteers.

“The training sessions helped a
lot, in fact tremendously,” he said.

“The volunteers who gave their
time learned the proper way to re-
ceive donations."

In addition to the UK carn-
paign's exceeding its goal. the UK
student campaign almost has
reached its goal of $10,000 and has
done exceptionally well, said Barry
Stumbo, administrative adviser of
the student campaign.

“To date. this has been the most
successful student campaign." he
said.

“The time and effort from eon-
tributors, such as the greek com-
munity and (the Office of) Resi-
dence Life, has been
overwhelming.”

The student campaign will cul-
minate Sunday with the Sports
Spectacular. which is co-sponsored
by the Student Government Asso-
ciation.

The event, originally scheduled
for the weekend of Oct. 16, was
postponed because it rained and
the organizers had not planned a
rain site.

 

 

Medical Center Chancellor Peter Bosomworth, UK President Charles Wethlngton and campus
United Way co-chairmen Paula Pope and Jon Zachem celebrate the successiul campaign.

This time the event is scheduled
indoors —— at 1 pm. in the Seaton
Center.

More than 100 players are sched-
uled to participate in the games.

Members of the local media, in-
cluding John Lindgren of WTVQ-,
Channel 36. Dave Shore of
WKYT-TV. Channel 27, and Tim

Kelley. editor of the Lexington
Herald-Leader are scheduled to
participate in Sunday‘s event, said
Kathy Lin. student campaign co-
chairwoman.

Pirates of East Carolina promised to
be no more than a run through the
motions.

By this time, preseason prognos-

in the Bluegrass would be the one
to avoid remaining as the tenants of
the Southeastern Conference‘s East
Division cellar for another year.

Instead. the showdown with the
Pirates approaches with much on

Student groups
setting up city

formed tomorrow into a VI-
hrant city in an effort to raise
money. and awareness, for
Lexington residents who live
in sub-standard housing.

From 10 am. to 2 pm. UK
student organizations and
various independent groups
from the community will dis-
play their construction abili-
ties as they build and tempo-
rarily reside in cardboard
dwellings.

Some groups will bring
their houses to the parking
lot, while others will build
their “residences" using card-
board supplied at the site.

Though some groups al-
ready have gotten pledges
and will be turning their col-
lections in, participants still
will be taking donations dur-
ing the hours of the event be-
side Stoll Field.

Dennis Dever. president of
the student chapter of Habitat

posed of Cardboard City is
two—fold.

“We would like to raise
$5.000 at this year‘s event.
but our main goal is to raise
awareness of Lexington's
need for low income hous-
ing," Dever said.

Habitat for Humanity is a
non-profit organization that
seeks to do away with sub-
stande housing. The group
builds homes and provides
them to needy families at
zero percent interest on a 20—
year mortgage.

The main method of pay-
ment in return for the house
is “sweat equtty." or volun—
teer work for Habitat. Dever
said. The purpose is to give
people access to safe hous-
ing.

This practice also tends to

Dever said.

ing houses,“ Dever said.

There are three college mascots
that UK fans hate more than any
others in the nation: Cardinals, Vol-
unteers and Hoosiers.

      

One member of this trio, Indiana,
VISITS Lexington this weekend for a
two-game series against the Cool
Cats.

To say that the hockey club has
been on a roll in recent weeks
would be somewhat of an under-
statement.

scoring from numerous players and
consistent play out of all three lines.

“The team overall has been play-
ing a lot better than they did in the
first week." Cool Cat head coach
Gord Summers said. “They‘re be-
ginning to play like a team instead
of individuals, and it’s really start—
ing to show on the ice."

The recent offense outburst has
drawn some comparisons between
this year's squad and the national
runner-up team of l99l-92. That
Cool Cat team thrilled the home
crowds by demolishing almost eve-
ry opponent that visited the Lexing-
ton lce Center.

Led by center Chad Cooper and
goalie Keith Roberts, they were

sity level.

In the first two years as a varsity
sport, men's soccer had achieved
that goal at UK. and while the 7-9-4
mark could be considered respecta-
ble for most third year programs, it
was a disappointment for Wooten.

A win at Vanderbilt would have
been the pinnacle of a disappointing
season that once held high hopes,
but the Cats were unable to hold the
Commodore offense in the two 15-
minute overtimes.

As it stands, though, the 10w
point of the season may have been a
1-1 tie against NAIA Division I foe
Transylvania. Though the Pioneers

ranked No. 1 in the country most of
the year and advanced to the nation-
al championship game, where they
lost to the Dayton Flyers.

But the older members of this
year's squad were young players
during that super successful year.
Many of them see some major dif-
ferences between the two learns.

“We‘re a lot more balanced this
season,” senior Pat Fortier said.

“In the past, we relied on one or
two people to put the puck in the
net. This year we‘ve got about
twelve guys who can do that consis-
tently."

Fortier said he thinks that a big
factor in the Cool Cats' recent
blowout victories is the teams they

were a strong NAIA team, the
Transy game was one of many the
Cats thought they could win.

The 1993 team‘s major weak-
nesses seemed to be a lack of abili-
ty to hold the late lead and to score
when given the opportunity. This
was never more apparent than in
back-to-back losses to Cincinnati, a
game in which the Cats led 2-1 late.
only to lose 3-2, and Miami (Ohio),
when the Cats had no less than
three open shots miss the goal.

The season was not without its
high points, however. Sophomore

record with nine assists on the year,

“Frankly, the teams we‘ve been

“This weekend should give us a

He said he thinks the key to beat~
ing the Hoosiers is solid overall

too long to learn to play as a team.

That shouldn’t pose a problem
next year. as Kotzbauer and full-

Volleyball team
digs in on road
to Final Four

 

By Steve McSorely
Assistant Sports Editor

 

The ninth-ranked UK volleyball
team will make its final road trip of
the regular season this weekend.
The Wildcats travel to Oxford,
Miss, to take on the Mississippi
Rebels today and then wrap up the
weekend in Baton Rouge, La., on
Sunday against the LSU Tigers.

Sunday‘s match against LSU (l3-
l2, 7-3, fourth in the Southeastem
Conference) will be the tougher of
the two matches for the Wildcats.
While LSU record is only one game
over the .500 mark, the Tigers have
played a tough out-of-conference
schedule and are looking to avenge
the loss they suffered at the hands
of the Cats on Oct. 29.

Mississippi (3-22, 0-10) should
be quick work for the Wildcats. UK
had no trouble in disposing of the
last place Rebels Oct. 30 at Memo-
rial Coliseum.

Notes:

-Senior middle blocker Eunice
Thomas was named the SEC player
of the week for her outstanding play
this weekend in wins over Georgia
and South Carolina.

Thomas contributed 27 kills and
l0 blocks on the weekend. Against
Georgia, she led the Wildcats in
kills with 13 and in blocks with
eight, while having an attack per-
centage of .333. Thomas is the sec-
ond Wildcat to be named SEC
player of the week. I unior outside
hitter Krista Robinson was the oth-
er. She was chosen in the first week
of October.

-Junior middle blocker Jennifer
Wright will miss the rest of the sea-
son with a knee injury. Wright tore
her anterior cruciate ligament in her
left knee in the Mississippi match
on Oct. 30. Surgery is scheduled
for later this month. according to
the UK Sports Information office.

Jazz vocalist displays touch of soul

 

By John Dyer Fort
Senior Staii Writer

 

When vocalist Cassandra Wilson
released Blue Skies in 1988, jazz
fans welcomed her as the long-
awaited successor to the Big Three:
Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan and
Betty Caner.

But Wilson, a daringly original
singer and composer in her own
right, had other ideas.

Determined to make it on her
own music, Wilson fused her jazz,
blues and scul style with Latin, reg-
gae and African polyrhythms.

Combining the best of old and
new she has managed to turn the
jazz world upside down in the pro-
cess.

Wilson performs Sunday night
for UK’s nationally acclaimed
Spotlight Jazz Series.

Tickets still are available for the
intimate, spirited Spotlight venue at
Memorial Hall. Showtime is 8 pm.

Wilson’s soulful power and silky
vinuosity earned her a top spot
among female jazz vocalists from
readers and critics of Down Bear
magazine. With a vocal style remi-
niscent of Betty Caner and Amina-
ta Moseka (Abbey Lincoln), Wil-

son' 3 early albums combine a jazz
feeling with rhythm and blues, reg-
gae and Latin rhythms.

She ha performed with a variety
of jazz greats, including Moseka.
Woody Shaw, Steve Coleman, Hen-
ry Threadgill and Ellis Marsalis.

Since her solo debut in 1985,
Wilson's unpredictable muse has
led her down many musical ave-
nues.

While resurrecting jazz and blues
standards on Blue Skies and 1991's
She Who Weeps, a soulful tribute to
jazz music‘s legacy of female sing-
ers, Wilson prefers recording her
own music.

Her 1992 Live release, which
reached Billboard's top jazz album
chart, and 1993's Dance to the
Drums Again contain much of her
own material.

Wilson’s metaphysical lyrics are
earthy, emotionally charged cries
from the spirit world. Many of her
lyrics are inspired by dreams and
African religion and mythology.

Accompanying Wilson in concert
will be Lonnie Plaxico on bass, Aa-
ron Graves on keyboards, Jeffrey
Hanes on percussion and lance
Caner on dmms.

New community program
gives rap on hip-hop music

 

By Mitchell L.H. Douglas
Staff Writer

 

It ain't where you're from; it's
where you’re at.

$0 goes the saying about possess-
ing the skills to be a good rapper, a
phme that suggests the talent it
takes to succeed in rap has nothing
to do with being from the place in
which the music originated, New
York City.

“Rap Is Art Is Life,” a Lexington
program dedicated to teaching rap-
pers how to produce promote and
sell their own work while giving
them a regular opportunity to per-
form, is determined to prove that
saying true with a free half— hour rap
demonstration today at noon in the
Student Center food court and an
extended show tonight at 8 p. m in
Memorial Hall Tickets are $3.
Both events are sponsored by Kap-
pa Alpha Psi social fraternity.

“There's a lot of misconceptions
about people in Kentucky, that
we're all country and we don‘t
know what real hiphop is,” said
UK finance sophomore Todd
Mitchell, 3 “Rap Is Art Is Life" par-
ticipanl. “I‘d like to change that.
show them that we can hang with
the best of them, period.

“Revolutionaries against the
hype, rap can cover every compo-
nent of life. The whole idea really

behind the whole project is that rap
is legitimate an," said “Rap Is An
Is Life” organizer Kurt Reinhardt.

“We‘re trying to create a space
now so that hip-hop can have a live
audience in Lexington," he said.
With the help of the New Morning
Coffee House, “Rap Is Art ls Life"
plans to make rap performance
night a reality at least once a month.

“Right now, the only audience
that hip-hop has in Lexington is
through tapes and radio,“ Reinhardt
said.

Reinhardt and his in Third Eye
Productions Inc., UK graduates An-
thony Mathis and Carmen Phillips,
originally conceived the event as a
one-time concert. However, Rein-
hardt said his study of Afrocentric
scholar .iawanza Kunjufu‘s book
“Hip—Hop vs. Maat” caused him to
realize that the influence of “Rap Is
Art Is Life" had to go beyond the
stage.

in “Hip-Hop vs. Maat,"l(unjufu
revealed that 97 percent of black
children between the ages of 13 and
18 enjoy listening to rap music.
Based on Maat, a form of Egyptian
mythology the book compares to
the principles of rap music. Mathis,
Phillips and Reinhardt created a se~
nes of seven classes — hamiony,
sampling, vocabulary, law. audi-
ence response, exposure and orga-
nizing the history of rap — de—
signed to help children understand
