Defense moves to close Morton case hearings

By STEPHANIE WALLN ER
Managing Editor

The trial of Elzie Alexander Mor-
ton, accused in the June 9 murder of
a UK student, has been postponed
and defense attorneys are awaiting
a decision on their motion to exclude
the public and press from pretrial
hearings.

The court is expected to rule Mon-
day on the motion, which would
close the pretrial hearings.

Morton, 31, was arrested in Cali-
fornia in August and extradited to

Lexington, where he was charged
with the murder of chemistry grad-
uate student Lin-jung Chen. He is
also charged with rape, sodomy and
being a persistent felon.

In the closure motion. defense at-
torneys claim that articles published
in the Kentucky Kernel, The Cou-
rier-Journal and the Lexington Her-
ald-Leader contained “significant
pretrial publicity . “

The motion states, “the closure
will keep potential jurors from fur-
ther exposure to information which

would render them an unfairly bi-
ased juror."

Defense attorneys Erwin W. Lewis
and Edward C. Monahan filed the
motion in Fayette Circuit Court
Monday and presented copies of ar-
ticles from the Kernel and Courier-
Journal for review They will submit
articles from the Herald-Leader at a
later date, they said.

The motion states, “articles exten-
sively discuss: 1) the commission of
the crimes; 2) information on the
victim, her child and husband . .
and information on Morton's arrest.

role and prior convictions.
Representatives from the Herald-
Leader and Kernel announced at
yesterday‘s hearing that the two
newspapers would contest the mo-
tion. A representative from the Cou-
rier-Journal was not present.

Elsa G. Black, an attorney rep-
resenting the Heraldicader. said,
“You have to make specific findings
. . . before you can close this case."

She said the accused must show
that justice cannot be fairly pursued

‘Progressive groups’ form new coalition

l, iheral students want ‘network ’ of information between several organizations

i._\ tMKNELI. (‘LEM
Senior Staff Writer

In an attempt to establish a “net-
work" of information among various
campus organizations. a “coalition
of progressive groups" was formed
last night at a meeting in the Stu-
dent Center Addition.

Lois Wesly. Socially Concerned
Students president, and Kevin
Greene, 3 member of SCS, began
contacting group leaders about two
weeks ago. In attendance last night
were members from SCS, Young

Democrats, the UK chapter of the
National Organization for Women,
the Resource Conservation Club,
Democratic Socialists of America‘s
Youth Section. GALUS. and Emer-
gence, a campus feminist newspa-
per.

The purposes of the coalition will
be to provide a wider system of sup-
port among the groups and to keep
members informed of campus activ-
ities.

“We need to be monitoring things
that go on on campus." said Suz-
anne Feliciano, coordinator of UK‘s

NOW chapter. "The first thing we
need to work on is (to see) how this
University is run. to learn how the
channels work.‘ ‘

The coalition should “look into all
kinds of things that go on." she
said.“We need to be going to admin-
istration meetings.“

The students also voiced concern
over the re—election of President
Reagan and the conservative mood
in the country.

Laura Collim. a NOW member,
predicted that the University will
experience an increase in conserva-

tism. “We're going to see a very
strong conservative trend come over
this campus — like a fog,“ she said.
Collins stated that there were “dif-
ferent groups here (at the meeting)
with different strengths." By com-
bining efforts. “we‘re going to be
seen —- we‘re going to be heard."
Susan Brothers, Young Democrats
president, noted that the individual
organizations have particular goals,
but said, “we also have a common
goal, or we wouldn‘t be here to-

night."

“This money can be used to buy

This is the third consecutive year
Halliburton Foundation has given

“We do receive unsolicited gifts

Dental students gain experience on volunteer patients

By CAROLYN EDWARDS
Staff Writer

For 845, patients can buy complete
dental service and help educate UK
dental students.

The College of Dentistry offers a
special program in which full-time
UK students can pay a “5 flat fee
and receive dental care from sec-
ond to fourth-year dental students.

If accepted for the program, pa-
tients are randomly assigned to a
dental student. They then have to
set aside some free afternoon for

Off-campus groups
combine members

Merger move looks for organization
with greater commuter involvement

By MICKEY MEECI‘I
Staff Writer

Students who don‘t know what
STRAY CATS stands for can give up
guessing. That organization. the Off
Campus Student Board and the
Commuter Advisory Committee
have united into one.

The reasons for the merger,
according to Kelly Hern, president
of Students That Reside Away Yet
Care About Their School, are “to
build up membership and to broaden
the scope of the different groups."

The new organ‘zation has not yet
been named, but its working name
is Commuter Cats Club. A more per-
manent name will be chosen at the
organization's first meeting.

Hern cited one example of his or
ganization‘s past membership prob‘
lems. “Legally, STRAY CATS has
not conducted business for over a
year." he said. A clause in its con-
stitution requires a minimum of 12
active members to be present at a
business meeting, and the group has
not been able to meet that require-
ment.

Now, according to the new consti-
tution drafted at yesterday’s organi-
zational meeting, a quorum of at
least three executive members. one
of which must be an officer, plus
seven active members must be met
before the organization can officially
conduct business.

The new group. as stated in the
constitution. is "dedicated to provid-
ing a better plan of opportunities to
the commuting student at the Uni-
versity of Kentucky through social
events. intramurals and programs
on student concerns. "

The offcampus student board tra-
ditionally has been a political orga-

nization that had similar mem-
bership problems, With the merger.
Hem said, “students can find some-
thing more to their liking. more than
just one area

Hern said: “We are trying not to

pus and want to move off campus.
they can join. "

In the past, Hern said. his group
and the others. “have not had effec-
tive attendance to be able to orga-
nize major events

The organization will be composed
of four executive members. includ»
ing three officers. president. vice
president. and secretary/treasurer.
and four board members. an intra-
mural director. special events chair-
person. newsletter chairperson and
campus issues director.

'I‘here are two classifications of
membership: active and inactive. A
member becomes active upon initial
attendance of an officral function.

Once the member has missed
three consecutive business meet»
ings, he becomes inactive. If he or
she misses five group functions. in—
cluding business meetings. during
the course of one school year. he or
she is dropped.

The club's next meeting will be 5
pm. Wednesday at 215 Bradley
Hall. Officers will be elected and the
first social function will be planned.

Job market improving,
placement director says

By ANDY McGIlJ.
Reporter

Improvements in the economy
have resulted in more job opportuni-
ties now than ever. according to
Larry R. Crouch, director of UK‘s
Career Planning and Placement
Center.

This is evident in the recent in-
crease in employment recruiting on
campus.he said.

“This last year. recruiting activ-
ities were up almost 50 percent over
the previom year,“ Crouch said.
“We are posting over 70,000 differ-
ent job opportunities each month
here at the Career Planning and
Placement Center."

Crouch said many fields are ex-
pending and offering more jobs to

graduates. These include engi-
neering. computer science. busmess,
agriculture, education and the liber.
alarts.

Academic performance and com-
munication skills are important
areas employers consider when hir-
ing, Crouch said. "They temploy-
ersi are definitely looking at aca-
demic performance. They are
looking at communication skills -.
written and verbal. "

He said other factors considered
in the hiring process include human
relations skills. studi-m ambition,
courses taken and leadership ability.

The center offers four phases to
help students make career choices:
career planning. explrmnion. plat-v:-
ment services. and alumni assis-
tance.

Excellent cast
makes ‘Child’
‘hypnotizing’

Sam Shepard's Pulitzer-prize win-
ning “Buried Child" opened last
Thursday night to an appreciative,
-- but not overwhelmed — audience.

The production, directed by Joe
Ferrell, is blessed by several excel-
lent performances in difficult role.
The play can be both unsettling and
hypnotizing as it draws the audience
into its world of old lies, new truths
and buried secrets.

Paul Thomas leads an excellent
cast as Dodge, 3 cackling old codger
with a hankering for whiskey and
getting his own way. Thomas dis-
plays considerable comic talent in
Dodge‘s cantankerors attitude,
maintaining only enough subtlety to
keep the old man from becoming a
caricature.

Ed Monaghan offers a well-round.
ed portrayal of the soft-spoken, omi-
nous "I‘ilden, one of Dodge‘s sons. Al-
though his voice rarely rises above
those onstage with him, Monaghan
maintains a gripping intensity. In
his stifled, shuffling steps, there is
both a beaten and enraged man.

Roger Lee Ileasor is also splendid
as Bradley. seizing the audience
with his first moment onstage and
never letting go. Bradley is obnox-
ious. violent and otherwise unmerci-
ful. yet Leasor also shows the pain
that made him that way.

Vic Chaney and Nancy Shane spill
onto the set as the second act opens.

RI(‘|\ I'll KI\§ kernel Stun

The “Buried Child“ cast in a scene from the award-winning play.

Chaney‘s Vince is alternately con-
fused and threatening with remarka-
ble fluidity.

Shane is equally superb as Shelly,
Vince‘s bewildered girlfriend.
Shane‘s energy and commitment are
consistently high, whether dealing
with Vince‘s odd relatives or Vince
himself. She and Monaghan find a
delicate balance that holds the audi-
ence riveted to their conversation

The script calls for the character
of Halie to speak with Dodge from
offstage for a good part of the first
act. Laurene Scalf worked valiantly
to be heard and understood above
the sound of the rain, but the audi-

ence was forced to struggle along
with her.

Joe Kelly Smith showed an equal
lack of enthusiasm in the role of Fa-
ther Dewis. To be fair, the role
seems to be burdened with more
symbolism than motivation.

Overall, the play provides an im-
pressive array of performances. De-
spite its lapses. the production offers
a memorable evening in the theater.

“Buried Child" will be performed
again tonight, tomorrow and Satur-
day at 8 p.m. in the Guignol Theater
ofthe Fine Arts Building.

Xavion enters ‘real world of rock’

By GARY PIERCE
Arts Editor

Xai'ion. the Memphis-based rock-
”soul band opening tonight’s Hall
and Oates concert in Rupp Arena,
isn‘t worried about fronting for such
an established act.

“Being on the Hall and Oates tour
exposes us to the real world of
rock.“ Xavion‘s keyboard player,
Derwin S. Adams, said in a recent
telephone interview. “We're rookies
on this one."

A dance music band boasting clas-
sical music training, Xavion figures
to offset the crowd’s usual luke-
warm response to opening acts.

“They sense this is a hardwork~
ing, down-toearth sensible band,“
Adams said. “We’re good. We put on
a good show."

Xavion plays all original music in
its 35-minute set, including most of
the tunes from its debut Elektra/A—
sylum album, Burnin' Hot. The title
accurately sums up this band's sen-
sual sound — especially such songs
as "Get Me Hot" —— but Adams in-
sists Xavion is not as dedicated to
sex as most groups.

" ‘Get Me Hot' is a love ballad,“
he said. "You can get someone hot
without raping them. It says ‘get me
hot," not ‘do me in.’ “

Adams admits that "two of the
guys are sort of womanizers. To me,
music is a medium to reach people.

“A lot of people are just into
thrills . . . you don't have to be high
to have a thrill. Seeing somebody
smile is a thrill.“
