THE rtrTiucio mm

Education junior Anne Kadera
wrapped herself in a gray fleece
blanket outside White Hall Class-
room Building yesterday and shiv-
ered as she talked.

But in her opinion. that was the
least she could do for Terri Schiavo.

Schiavo, a 41-year-old Florida
woman. has relied on hospital treat-
ment and a feeding tube since 1990.

when she collapsed in her home
from heart failure.

On Friday a Florida circuit
court judge ordered doctors to re-
move Schiavo‘s feeding tube a. the
third time that has happened.

In response. President Bush
signed a bill Monday giving a feder-
al court . ~ not a Florida state court
._ jurisdiction over the matter.

Schiavo‘s parents want the feed-
ing tube to remain, while Schiavo’s
husband has said his wife wouldn't

want to continue to live in her cur-
rent condition.

Court rulings have consistently
ruled in the husband's favor. saying
he is Schiavo’s legal guardian.

Kadera. president of UK Stu-
dents for Life. and members of that
group stood outside the Classroom
Building to explain her group's van-
tage point.

“Basically in this situation. it‘s a
case about how you treat the most
vulnerable and weak in society."

Kadera said.

“Do you reach out with love or
determine that they have no pur-
pose or no utility, so you don't care
and they're not needed?

“If someone else is deciding
whether your life is worth it or not.
that’s frightening."

Yesterday, the full 11th US. Cir
cuit Court of Appeals denied a re-
quest to rehear Schiavo's case.

Earlier in the day, a threeperson

number of judges in the appeals
court system ~ upheld the ruling
that ordered the tube’s removal by a
2-1 vote.

Kadera said this case is headed
in the wrong direction.

“If Terri Schiavo isn’t worth be
ing taken care of or being fed,
where does it go from here?" Kadera
asked. “It‘s a slippery slope, where
the exception becomes the rule."

The Baron of the Bluegrass. The Man in the Brown Suit.

age. Rupp found an outlet in the game of basketball.

After emerging as a model student and standout play-
er for Halstead High School. Rupp enrolled at Kansas Uni-
versity. where he majored in economics and history and
played for Forrest “Phog” Allen. one of the game's most
revered college coaches.

Rupp graduated with honors, went on to earn a mas-
ter's degree from Columbia University and landed his
first head coachingjob at Weeport High School in Illinois.

There. Rupp incorporated the techniques he learned
from Allen to lead the team to a 5921 record in four years
without a losing season.

It was his achievements at the high school. coupled
with his strict discipline and a devotion to the academics
of his players. that earned Rupp the head coaching job at
UK in 1930.

The 28-yearold inherited a team that had gone 163 the
previous season under John Mauer. who left the school af-
ter three years because of a contract dispute with UK ad-
ministration.

Mauer had generated a new interest in the team in his

Rupp's early success

In Rupp‘s first game as the head coach of the Wildcats.
it was clear the team and its fans were in store for some
thing they had never seen. The 67 points the Cats scored
against Georgetown in the season opening victory were
the most in the history of the program.

In the gym. the school‘s administrators had found
someone who could build a winning tradition and excite
the fans with a revolutionary style of basketball.

But Potts has found little free time

other teams march toward champi
onships she is helping the (‘ats
march toward their own.

Potts is leading UK (17-15) into the
quarterfinals of the Women‘s Nation-
al Invitational Tournament against
Xavier (22-9). Xavier defeated the (‘ats
in December. 75-67. capitalizing on a
school record of 13 :i-pointers

"The team is excited about having
another opportunity to play them
(Xavier)." said [’K head coach. Mickie

l)eMoss. “We played a tough game up
there. but they just hit some big
threes."

The (Tats are also excited to play
Xavier again because of some com-
ments that have come from the Xavier
team. according to Potts. The team re-
portedly has said that the fans at UK
do not scare them. and that they can
handle the (‘ats on their home floor

“I am excited about playing them
and having the opportunity to play
them again." Potts said. “And they
said they thought they could handle
us down here that is just bulletin-
board material for us."

Potts. who had a career high 32
points and seven ftpointers in the sec

has saved her best basketball of the
season for the tournament. averaging
'25:) points a game in the postseason.

"She is playing outstanding. and

she has been able to move without the
ball." Deerss said. “She has been able
to get herself free and allowed herself
to get open."

Potts and the Cats will have their
hands full with Kentucky native Tara
Boothe. Boothe scored 36 and 30
points in her team's first two WNlT
games.

Freshman sensation Sam Ma-
honey has also stepped up big for the
Cats during the WNIT. taking the of-
fensive pressure off Potts.

“She has played big all year."
DeMoss said. “1 did not expect any dif-
ferent in the postseason. I forget some-
times she is even a freshman. The oth-

Gov. Bush asks for state ,

Florida (iov. .leb Bush

that state officials would

battle over Terri Schiavo

that the state may have au-

the brain-damaged woman

the possibility of an appeal
by the state lent a dramatic
note to the rapidly moving
legal struggle.

Bush’s attempt to once
again enter the case came
the same day that Schiavo's
parents. Robert and Mary

tion to promote a more di-
verse and cosmopolitan at-
mosphere among Greek or-
ganizations.

However. while address-
ing several of Robbins' pers
tinent concerns and affirm-
ing their commitment to
breaking down traditional
barriers in Greek Life.
members of the panel and
the audience were highly
critical of some of Rob-
bins's work. mostly con-
cerning sorority rituals.

Most sororities have
words and signs for enter-
ing meetings and identify-
ing one another. which are
kept secret and considered
very personal among the
sisters of a given sorority

Some questions were
raised about whether or not
these rituals were used to
cover up hazing.

But these rituals are
what various sorority mem»
bers. including members of
Alpha Delta Pi. Kappa Kap-
pa Gamma and Kappa Delta.
claimed differentiated them
from other sororities.

Moreover. they ex-
pressed strong personal feel
ings about their sororities'
rituals and find them ex
tremely meaningful.

Robbins. in her book. re-
vealed several of these ritu-
als and secret words. One
member of the panel felt
this was “repulsive." and
this statement found many

Southern flare to the menu.
Staff members say that some
of the new dishes. including
the bourbon-glazed pork
chops. have set the new
menu apart from those of
other restaurants in Lexing-
ton.

The open bar is set off
from the restaurant area to
create a distinctive separa-
tion from the bar atmos-
phere. The setting is family-
and group-friendly. but not
ideal for dates. The dull
tones of the walls and simple
decorations are reminiscent
of the '70s

Winchell‘s menu ranges
from almond crusted trout to
fried chicken and a variety of
salads and sandwiches. The
veggie plate is a reasonably
priced item that allows cus-
tomers to pick four side
items out of the many of-
fered. Selections of vegeta-
bles include sweet potatoes.
green beans, jalapeno grits.
macaroni and cheese. and
other Southern classics that
are often found on the family
Thanksgiving table.

Prices on the dinner
menu ranged from 86 to 816.
Winchell's also specializes in
lunch meals and a breakfast
menu.

We waited shortly for an
order of a dozen fried chick-
en wings drenched in a sweet
buffalo sauce that hit the
tongue late with a twinge of
spice. The miniature wings
were under the average-sized
chicken wing and had little
meat on the bone.

The waitress recommend
ed the hot brown. which was
presented as a vast pool of
cheese topped with thick

voices of assent among the
audience.

It was also brought up
that Robbins' book presents
female Greek life revolving

around interaction with
men. such as date parties
and mixers.

touched by
the positive
response to

strands of bacon and thin
slices of tomatoes on two gi-
ant-sized plates. The hot
brown managed to encom-
pass most of the table and
was still bubbling out steam
when the food was served.
The meal was impossible to
finish. and the portions pres-
sured guests to the point of
overeating.

The food was served with
a choice of yeast rolls or
corn muffins. The salad 1 or-
dered arrived fresh and crisp
and came with the restau-
rant‘s sun-dried tomato
ranch dressing on the side.
The dressing was heavy and
flavorful with a slight hint of
bacon.

A full stomach did not
lend enough room for the fa-
mous pecan pie. My guest
and I left feeling overstuffed
and sick. not to mention that
threefourths of a hot brown
were left on the table with
the tip.

Winchell‘s offers tradi-
tional. quality dishes that
will appeal to any Southern-
born student. In short.
Winchell's is improving
enough to earn the respect of
more than just a typical din-
er. but it’s still only a few
steps up from Ramsey's.

After the moderated

was a brief conversation
among the audience over
various other issues relat

One of the greatest con-
