Judicial board says King should be reinstated

By KYLE FOSTER
Senior Staff Writer

After nearly three weeks of controversy
over his election and subsequent disqualifi-
cation as Student Government Association
senator at large. David King won his appeal
yesterday when the SGA Judicial Board
ruled that he be reinstated to the SGA Sen-
ate.

“1 was confident that the judicial board
would be fair and I’m pleased,” King said.
“And I am just relieved that the whole thing
is over."

King. who was elected to the SGA Senate

in the March 17-18 elections, turned in his
expenditure form after the deadline speci-
fied by the 1991 Spring Elections Rules and
Regulations. In a closed meeting April 4.
the SGA Elections Board voted to disquali-
fy King because he turned in his expendi-
ture form 45 minutes past deadline.

The judicial board heard King’s appeal of
the disqualification last Thursday but did
not release a decision until yesterday mom-
ing. Judicial Board Chief Justice Ken Walk-
er said the board wanted to confirm the
unanimous opinion of the three justices
present

European Community:
bring Saddam to trial

By ROBERT J. WlELAARD
Associated Press

LUXEMBOURG — The European Com-
munity said yesterday that Saddam Hussein
is responsible for war crimes in the Persian
Gulf conflict and urged
the United Nations to
begin proceedings
against him.

Foreign ministers of
the 12 EC nations
agreed on the proposal
by Germany's foreign
minister. Hans-Dietrich
Genscher. They also
said a war trial of the
Iraqi president should
include charges of geno-
cide against lraq's Kurdish minority. Hun-
dreds of thousands of Kurds have fled
northem Iraq after Saddam’s army crushed
their uprising.

“Saddam Hussein is personally responsi-
ble for the plight of the Kurds," said Bel-
gium's foreign minister, Mark Eyskens.
noting accusations that Saddam used chemi-
cal weapons on the Kurds.

He added: “Allusion is made here to Nu-

Poos, whose country holds the EC presiden-
cy, will raise the issue of a war crimes trial
with UN. Secretary-General Javier Perez de
Cuellar today. officials said.

Perez de Cuellar is to address the Europe-
an Parliament. the EC’s 518-member as-
sembly, today in Strasbourg, France.

“(The EC) will contact the secretary-
general of the United Nations to see if, and
how, Saddam Hussein can be brought to
trial for his crimes against humanity based
on" UN conventions against war crimes
and genocide. Dutch Foreign Minister Hans
van den Broek said.

He spoke of “irrefutable crimes” by Sad-
dam during the Gulf War and the repression
of a Kurdish rebellion against his regime
that followed it.

Poos acknowledged the chance of Sad-
dam actually standing trial was “slim” but
called the EC “a clear political signal to the
Iraqi dictator and other dictators in the years
to come who might be inclined to follow
Saddam Hussein's example.”

turned in his expenditure form past dead-
line, the reason for his disqualification was
subject to dispute.

King acknowledged that he had missed
the deadline, but he claimed his disqualifi-
cation violated the SGA Constitution.

Cyndi Weaver, 1987-88 SGA president
and second-year law student. filed the ap-
peal with the judicial board for King and
argued his point before the judicial board
Thursday.

“I think it was ridiculous." King said. “I
was just fortunate enough to have a friend
like Cyndi who knew the mics and could
help me."

Weaver argued to the board that the SGA
Constitution doesn't allow a candidate to be
disqualified for a violation if the violation
hasn’t affected the outcome of an election.

But she said the rule on which the elec-
tions board based its decision mandates au-
tomatic disqualification of the candidate
without regard to whether the election was
altered by the violation.

The judicial board concurred with Weav-
er and King by stating in its ruling: “The
Elections Board presented no evidence that
they considered the effect of Mr. King's vi-
olation on the outcome of the senator at
large election. Without such evidence, we

are left to conclude that the elections board
simply applied the 1991 Elections Rules. as
passed by the Senate. as if no SGA Consti-
tution existed. Therefore. the election‘s
board's disqualification of Mr. King is in-
valid."

The ruling stated that it “would be an
abuse of discretion" for the elections board
to claim that King’s slight delay in turning
in his expenditure form affected the out-
come of the election.

The judicial board suggested that the
SGA Election Board issue a reprimand to

Writer’s Muse

Author Ellen Gilchrist unravels
strands of her story through writing

By LAURA CARNES
Staff Writer

If writing is a “tapestry" of
words. then Ellen Gilchrist unrav-
eled strands of herself and her char-
acters for her readers last week at
the Women Writers Conference.

Gilchrist. an award-winning au-
thor, read two short stories Thurs-
day at the Otis A. Singletary Center
for the Arts: “Anna. Pan 1" from the
book Drunk With Love and pan of
the title story from Light Can be
Both Wave and Particle as pan of
the 13th annual conference.

She then examined the writing
process on Friday morning in a lec-
ture titled “How I Do It."

Anna Hand, the main character in
“Anna, Pan 1," is a writer involved
in a ill-fated relationship with a
married doctor.

“People often ask me questions
about The Anna Papers and I Can-
not Hold You Close Enough and
this is where I created the character
of Anna. who is in both of those
books," said Gilchrist, whose hon-
ors include the American] Book
Award for Fiction ‘and the poet lau-
reate of Mississippi. “So I decided
that since this is a writers confer-
ence that some of my real fans
might be here and they mignt enjoy
hearing it (‘Anna, Part I’)."

Shannon Price, who has attended
several conferences, said she usual-

 

“It may be 12 o’clock at night when you're in
the bathtub —— it will be when you have given up
and least expect it —— and there it will be: the for-
mula, the good short story, the real poem."

ly prepares for the conference six
weeks beforehand by discussing in-
coming writers‘ works with a group
of other participants.

“We picked two of (Gilchrist‘s)
books and one of them was The
Anna Papers. " Price said. “I really
enjoyed her (Thursday night) read-
ing because she read the short story
that was the precursor of The Anna
Papers."

On Friday, Gilchrist spoke to a
large group of conference members
about her writing process, and she
talked about characters who reap—
pear in her stories and books.

“I have created a cast of charac-
ters that are like a Fellini troupe —
they are always trying to steal the
spotlight from each other." she said.
“It's gotten to the point where its
impossible for me to create new
characters. although I’ve found a
way to do it — they have to be chil—
dren, nieces or nephews of other
characters, a new generation."

Writers cannot force or nish in-
spiration for characters and situa-
tions, Gilchrist said.

“In order to do creative work in
any of the ans and sciences. you

must go through long and shon pe-
riods of being irritated and not be-
ing able to find the cause," she said.

Gilchrist said the best way to
combat such inertia is to continue
writing until inspiration strikes.

“It may be 12 o'clock at night
when you're in the bathtub — it
will be when you have given up and
least expect it —— and there it will
be: the formula, the good shon sto-
ry. the real poem,” she said.

Gilchrist mentioned how anists
help each other deal with stunted
creativity. When one of her painter
friends experienced a unproductive
period, Gilchrist mailed her a piece
of writing.

Recalling the quote in her speech,
Gilchrist quoted poet Larry Levy:
“A major lesson I have learned is to
become empty, and dumb, and trust-
ing enough to go on and write every
day. For that reason I needed at
times blind patience. not theories
about art.”

Gilchrist stressed that when inspi-
ration hits, a writer should strive to
communicate the message in a basic
style. “The simpler you can manage
to say that, the more room we leave

“Drunk With Love" is a collection

Writers Conference.

for the reader‘s mind, which is a
way of respecting the reader.”

To economize words and build
content, Gilchrist said writers al-
most always subject themselves to
vigorous editing and revision.
“Writing is what I do. Rewriting is
what I do for a living," she said.

To illustrate how writers histori-
cally have had to change their work,
she cited Shakespeare, whose plays
were revised by actors while they
were being written.

She also mentioned Albert Ein—
stein, whose prose writings she ad-
mires. When Gilchrist worked as a
commentator on National Public
Radio, she became friends with
Abraham Pais, a physicist who
wrote Einstein's biography.

Pais told her a story revealing
Einstein’s generosity and writer’s
mind. When the National Council
of Jewish Women asked Einstein to
donate the 1905 manuscript of the
theory of relativity for a charity auc-
tion, Einstein told them he did not
know where it was but offered to
copy the theory by hand.

While taking dictation from his
secretary, the scientist turned to
her and said “I could have put that
simpler."

Simon had them begging
for more in Cincinnati

 

CONCERT
REVIEW

By KYLE FOSTER
Senior Staff Critic

CINCINNATI — Out with the
old. in with the new? Not yet, at
least not for singer/writer Paul Si-
mon, who performed songs from his
recent album The Rhythm of the
Saints. along with hits from his days
with Art Garfunkel Sunday night.

Before about 9,500 screaming
fans at Shoemaker Center on the
University of Cincinnati campus,
Simon and his 17-piece band, which
included a synthesizer. congas. a tri-
angle and an accordion, brought the
enthusiastic audience to its feet and
dancing in the aisles.

Simon opened with the “Obvious
Child," the first release off Rhythm
of the Saints, which is an exciting
rhythmic tune that was a sample of
Simon's new sound. The song set
the evening's tone as the audience
became as involved with the concen
as the band members on stage ——
who often looked like they were
performing a tribal ritual dance,
sometimes letting out a foreign cry
or phrase.

Next Simon performed hits from
his 1986 Graceland album, adding
a South African flavor from
Rhythm. He continued to intersperse
tracks from Rhythm and Graceland,
slow tunes and those that evoked
action from the audience.

But Simon was not greedy —- he
shared the spotlight with his
players, allowing them to display
their talents. Simon left the stage
completely to the band when it ac-
companied Charles Doheny on an
energetic saxophone solo, which
brought a standing ovation for the
group.

Simon returned to the stage to
perform "Call Me Al" from Grace-
land, in the middle of which a 15-
minute percussion break had the au-
dience dancing in the aisles and on
the seats, waving their hands in the
air and singing the lyrics along with
the performer. Simon smiled at the
sight of everyone standing and sing-
ing. until he noticed that some were
still sitting.

“We‘re going to do it again until
everybody’s standing,” he said. And
they sang “Call Me Al" again and
everyone stood and danced, singing

 

 

PAUL SIMON: His 17-piece
band performed three encores
Sunday night at the University of
Cincinnati.

“If you'll be my bodyguard "

The saxophone solos, percussion
breaks and guitar solos all proved
that the group was not just Paul Si-
mon's “Band,” but a group of tal-
ented individuals whose energy and
enthusiasm comprise a band that
suppons and enhances Simon‘s mu—
src.

When he pulled hits from his mu-
sical scrapbook with Simon and
Garfunkel, the crowd jumped and
cheered as memories of coffee
houses and folk music were rekin-
died

He ended his show on an upbeat
with “She Loves Me Like a Rock,”
but he was called back with cries of
“More, more, more."

He returned to sing “Late in the
Evening" and “Truth for America."

The second time Simon was per-
suaded to return to the stage, he
smiled at the audience and said:
“Thank you very much. That was
lovely," before bringing his band
back and singing the Simon and
Garfunkel hit “The Boxer" and a
South African-influenced “Cecilia.”

The artist broke out his harmoni-
ca for the first time during his third
encore when he sang “The Sounds
of Silence." The calming lyrics did
not sedate Cincinnati — it wanted
more, stomping the floor, clapping
and cheering, trying to persuade Si-
mon to play just one more.

He returned, but without his gui-
tar. Instead he brought his band,
and all 17 of them held hands and
bowed.

Bringing it down: Coaches
put steaks at stake in battle

Stan reports

What started out as minor boast-
ing has turned into a “pretty in-
tense” competition between four
coaches for the UK football team.

The matchup pits John Guy and
Craig Caner, members of the UK
football coaching staff, against
Mike Florence and Tom Cmmrie of
the team's strength staff.

At stake? A steak. A trip to a Lex-
ington restaurant.

“Florence and Crumrie were lift~
ing anyway and Caner challenged
Florence that he can lose a certain
amount of weight and they kind
of got into a competitive thing."
said assistant strength coach Albert
Burks.

The goal is to hit a target weight

Holyfield

By ED SCHUYLER JR.
Associated Press

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ. —- Bell-
hops are supposed to get tips, but
here’s a tip from one to Evander
Holyfield on how to fight George
Foreman: “Stay away from him,
just stay away from him or he‘ll kill
you," said Levi Forte, who lost a
lO—round decision to Foreman in
1969 and currently works as a bell-
hop at the Fontainebleau Hotel on
Miami Beach.

That’s what Forte told Muham-
mad Ali when Ali sought him out at
the same hotel before challenging
Foreman in 1974.

After the second round, Ali decid-
ed to go to the ropes, cover up,
throw flurries of punches and let
Foreman tire himself.

Ali won on an eighth-round
knockout.

Fone's advice still stands for the
28-year-old Holyfield, who defends
his heavyweight title against the 42
year-old Foreman on Friday night.

“George has got a chance," the
50-year-old Forte said. “If Holyfield
tries to mix it up early, George will
take him out.

“But after three or four rounds
Holyfield will do what he wants to
do."

Another former Foreman foe
doesn’t think Holyfield will get the
chance to dictate the fight.

“I think George will knock him
out in four," said Don Waldhelm, a
bouncer at a Brooklyn, N.Y., night-
club who was knocked out in the
third round of Foreman’s pro debut
June 29, 1969.

“He still has a lot of drive left.
The guy still has it upstairs. I expect

duo with the most combined pounds
is the winner.

Caner, at 175 pounds, is shooting
for 155. Guy, the outgoing assistant
head coach, at 218 pounds, is aim-
ing for 398.

Crumrie, UK’s head strength
coach, currently at 307. has a target
weight of 275. Florence wants to
decrease his Zoo-pound frame by 20
pounds.

Burks, an assistant strength coach
who UK Coach Bill Curry has pro-
moted to graduate assistant football
coach for the fall, is refereeing the
contest.

“It started last week,” Burks said.
“It's just a set weight they can get
to. The team who has lost the most
weight. they are to get treated.

“I'm pretty much the scorekeep~
er,” he said. “Make sure nobody's
cheating.”

So far. Crumrie has lost 17
pounds. Florence is down to 250
pounds. Guy has lost five pounds of
flesh. Caner is at 170, 15 short of
his target goal.

Carter may have the toughest road
to hoe. Somebody has been “send—
ing pizza to Craig’s house to get
him to eat," Burks said.

Burks said that “Florence is the
front-runner" but that “Coach Guy
and Coach Caner are suspicious
about what Florence is using. (Flor-
ence) says it's ‘ancient Florence se-
cret'.”

Burks isn’t sure which team will
win. But he believes Florence has
the edge.

Holyfield to jab
and run, but
Holyfield is
easy to hit."

The 54-year-
old Waldhelm
still remembers
being hit by
Foreman.

“It’s the hard-
est l‘ve ever

FOREMAN been hit," he said.
“It was like getting a shot of Novo-
caine.”

“He caught me in the first round
and broke three ribs," Forte re-
called. “I went down. I didn't know
the ribs were broken.”

Forte knew enough, however, to
survive nine more rounds in what
was Foreman’s 12th fight, on Dec.
16, 1969.

“He was a hard hitter, strong,”
Forte said, “but he rushed and tried
to take you out with every punch.
He's a smaner fighter now. He
takes his time."

While Forte isn’t sure Foreman
can win, he finds Foreman come--
back inspiring.

“If George can do it. I can do it."
said Forte, who plans to come back
in May if he can get a license from
the Florida State Boxing Commis-
sion.

“My wife thinks I‘m crazy,” said
Forte, who could have quite a root‘
ing section. He has three sons, two
daughters and 11 grandchildren.

“Actually I never retired," said
Fone, who sparred with Ali before
the Ali-Joe Frazier fight at Manila
in 1975. “I just stopped fighting.
My last fight was in 1978. I had

pretty close to 70 fights and I lost
25."

Foreman's first pro fight was
Waldhelm’s last.

“My age convinced me," said
Waldhelm, would have been about
32 when he fought Foreman. “1 al-
ways promised myselfl would nev-
er get hurt.

“I would never walk on my heels.
1 had a good time.

“1 don't remember how many

UK assistant basketball coach
Billy Donovan has withdrawn his
name from consideration for the
position of head basketball coach
at Brown University.

Donovan informed Brown ath-
letics director Dave Roach of his
decision Sunday afternoon.

“I was very honored to be inter-
viewed for the head coaching po-
sition at Brown," Donovan said.
“But one of my fondest memories
came during my playing days at
Providence, when we reached the
Final Four. Now I want to stay
here and help Kentucky achieve

that same goal.”

Donovan. 25. came to Ken-
tucky as a graduate assistant in
1988, shortly after Rick Pitino
was named head coach. He was a
part-time assistant coach this past
season and was promoted to full-
time assistant coach when Orlan-
do “Tubby” Smith accepted the
head coaching position at Tulsa.

Donovan played college ball
for Pitino at Providence, where he
graduated in 1987. He was draft-
ed in the third round by the
NBA's Utah Jazz and also played
with Wyoming of the Continental
Basketball Association and the
NBA'S New York Knicks.
