At Gov.’s request, Chandler

calls statement

By JAY BLANTON
Executive Editor

VERSAILLES Former Ken-
tucky Gov. A.B. "Happy“ Chandler
yesterday apologized for a racial
comment he made during a UK
Board of Trustees committee meet-
ing Tuesday, saying his remark was
“regrettable. ”

Representatives of the UK Black
Student Political Caucus. however.
say they do not believe the apology
was sincere. and they intend to con-
tinue to push for Chandler's resigna~
tion from the board.

Chandler, though, said he had no
intention of resigning from the
board, despite public outcry asking
him to do so.

At a press conference at his Ver-
sailles home yesterday. Chandler
said he wished hadn't made the
statement which has caused so
much controversy in the last two
days.

“I didn‘t intend to be offensive to
anybody.“ the two-time former gov-
ernor said.

Chandler‘s comment came at a
meeting of BOT investments com-
mittee Tuesday. During a discussion
of the University's divestment of its
holdings in South Africa. Chandler
said, “You know Zimbabwe‘s all

touched off controversy across cam-

for an apology and Chandler‘s resig-
nation from the BOT.

The comment also drew condem«
nation from the University Faculty
Senate, Student Government Asso-
ciation and state officials.

Although he agreed that the
statement was inappropriate. Chan»
dler said he has no intention of re-
signing from the board unless Gov.
Wallace Wilkinson asked him to.

“( Wilkinson ) indicated he
wouldn't ask me to (resign) under
any circumstances." Chandler said.
Wilkinson did ask Chandler to give a
public apology.

Chandler also pointed to his con

and Major League Baseball commis~
sioner — as examples of his commit-

as Keeneland opens

spring season tomorrow

LAURIE DELK
Staff Writer

What is the occasion when you
have 10,000 to 12.000 people fashion-
ably dressed. all watching horses
run around in circles. betting over
$1 million. eating burgoo. drinking
beer and having just a good time in
general?

It could be the latest episode of
“Dynasty." But today it‘s the scene
at Keeneland as the track opens its
doors for the spring meet.

“We've been doing all the last-
minute things to get ready for the
opening day." said Jim Williams. di-
rector of publicity at Keeneland.
“This opening day should be espe—
cially good because Kentucky Derby
favorite 49’er will be racing for the
Lafayette Stakes.“

The big difference in this meet
from previous meets is the in-
creased purse sizes. according to
Williams. He said the Ashland
Stakes are increased by $50,000 to
$200,000 and the Bluegrass Stakes
are increased by $50,000 to 830.000.

But if you don‘t go to Keeneland
for the races. you can always go for
the fraternizing. food and fun.

“When people come to Keeneland
it‘s a total experience," said Larry
Wolken. president of Turf Catering.
Turf Catering has catered every.
thing for Keeneland since 1936.

“What people enjoy is the ambiance.
it‘s the best of grounds. racing and
quality of horses."

A large part of that traditional
ambiance is Bucky Sallee. Sporting
a green jacket. blue top hat and rid-
ing boots and a post horn. Sallee has
been the official bugler at
Keeneland for the past 24 years. And
he said Keeneland is like a fashion
show.

“Tennessee is wrong. Kentucky
has beautiful women and fast
horses," said Sallee. “It looks like a
contest with everyone trying to out-
dress each other. We «the employ-
ees> watch the people."

In spite of the many job offers
Sallee has had. including the job of
bugler at Churchill Downs. Sallee
says he loves Keeneland. He has no
desire to leave and he is not afraid
of being replaced.

“The suit fits me so I don‘t have
to worry about it." siad Sallee. “It‘s
got my name inside the coat."

While a day at Keeneland may
conjure up ideas of betting. beer.
burgoo and Bucky for some. it con-
jures up memories of strange occur-
ances for some of the employees at
Keeneland.

ings Superintendant and has been at
Keeneland for 41 years. recalled a

RFL named year’s best
student organization

Staff reports

Radio Free Lexington was named
by the Student Organization Assem-
bly yesterday as the “Outstanding
Organization" of the 1987-88 aca-
demic year.

RFL was selected from a group of
1-1 applicants and will be awarded
$700by SOA.

Winning “Best New Organization"
was the Student Motivational and
Recruitment Team. SMART‘s pur-
pose is to recruit minority high
school students in the area to come
to UK. START was selected over
five other organizations for the
award.

The Student National Medical As-
sociation was chosen as the “Most
Improved Organization“ by SOA.
SNMA was chosen from a group of
is other student organizations.

Both SNMA and SMART will re-
ceive soon from SOA for their hon.

Organisations were judged by a

The panelists were Cynthia
Moreno of SOA, Student Govem-
ment Association President Cyndi
Weaver. Student Acitivities Board
President Lynne Hunt. Director of
Student Activities John Herbst and
CA Duane Bonifer of the Kentucky
Kernel.

RFL was the brainchild of former
Kernel columnist Kakie Urch. who
in a column asked the student body
what it tuought about an alternative
student-run radio station.

The response was overwhelming,
and a group began to form to make
the idea a reality.

RFL finally went on the air this
semester when it signed on at
2 pm. Monday. March 7 with Big
Audio Dynamite‘s ”C‘mon Every

The group had received 340.000 be-

UK football team refuses to play in game
until Chandler steps down from BOT seat

By TODD JONES
Sports Editor

The Kentucky football team has
declared a two-minute warning for
AB. “Happy” Chandler.

Chandler. 89, made the Wildcats
unhappy with a racial remark on
Tuesday at an investments coin-
mitte meeting of the UK Board of
Trustees.

"You know Zimbabwe‘s all nigger
now. There aren‘t any whites.”
Chandler said at the meeting.

The Wildcats were so angered by
the former Kentucky governor and
baseball commissioner's statement
that they walked away from the
practice field yesterday at the Shi‘
velv Sorirts Center.

" ‘Happy' Chandler has rep
resented the state and the l’iiviersi—
ty for so long and now he‘s said
something that‘s detrimental to our
race." junior cornerback Ron Mack
said.

“People are going to believe what
‘Happy' says is what the whole state
believes."

(‘handler publicly apologized yes~
terday but that was not enough to
soothe the feelings of the l'K toot-
ballteam.

to know Chandler‘s remark is not

themselves “Students for ‘Happy.‘ “

tucky Gov. A.B. "Happy“ Chandler.
saying he should not resign from his
position on the UK Board of Trust-

e6.

While the group acknowledges
Chandler's remark at Tuesday's
BOT investments meeting saying.
“Zimahabwe‘s all nigger now." was
a “mistake," it does not call for his
resignation.

“it was a man that made one mis-
take and no one wants to forgive
him.“ said Davis Sprague, an agri-
culture freshman from Henderson.
“To him. he didn‘t figure it as being
wrong and as a Christian. 1 can ac-
cept that. i don‘t think it was a pre-
thought out idea. but people make
mistakes.“

othy Gibson said they have been re—
ceiving phone calls all day support-
ing them. Gibson. an undet‘ided
freshman from Louisville. said he
even called Chandler at his home in
Versailles last night to give him
their support.

Chandler was in bed and could not
be reached by the Kernel for com-
ment last night. but his grandson.
Matthew. said “hundreds" of people
have called his house and the gover—
nor‘s mansion supporting the former
governor.

“The phone has been ringing off
the wall from people who are under-
standing and willing to forgive this
mistake." Matthew said. “He
i‘Happy') is certainly anything but
a bigot and he wants people to know
that."

Sprague said they decided to sup-
port Chandler because the news re-
ports about the incident were “so
one-sided . . . and we felt something
neededtobedone."

Sprague stressed that the group
"has nothing to do with racism ”

"People have to know we're not
racial." he said “We're merely giv-
ing a man a pardon for one mis-
take.“

"The reporter decided to blow this
up and make an issue about it." said
Ronnie Jackson, an undecided fresh»
man from ()wensboro. “i really
don't have Happy to blame for it . . _
it was the newspaper reporter who
did it."

Jackson said Chandler has also
been treated unfairly by University
administrators and local leaders as
well.

“After the (‘ivii War. all blacks
were never really freed and they
were looked down upon and that
went all the way to the 6th. and
(Chandler) grew up with people who
would call black people a nigger
. . .“Jackson said.

off-season will have a great effect on
how they do in the fall."

Training success cannot be
gauged until Oct. 15. when basket-
ball practice officially begins again.
The fruits of recruiting are reaped
in five days. The national signing
date is next Wednesday.

“It seems to be going well," Sut-
ton coyly said of recruiting.

Kentucky has already begun to fill
the hole created by the graduation
of five seniors.

Prepsters Chris Mills. Sean Woods
and Shawn Kemp signed last fall.
That leaves two scholarships avail-
able. Sutton has his eye set on three
players.

One. of course. is Richie Farmer
from Clay County. Sutton offered the
guard a scholarship last week but
Farmer put UK on hold. Farmer
still plans to visit Vanderbilt, West-
ern Kentucky and LSU.

The two other desired recruits are
big men. One is still in high school,
another already in college.

Prep center Don MacLean from
California has long been high on the
UK list. He's still debating UCLA.
The loss of inside players Rob Lock,
Winston Bennett, (‘edric Jenkins and
Richard Madison hike up MacLean's
stock with the (‘ats

tucky in the first round tomorrow
morning at It).

The tournament will also feature
Eastern Kentucky. Indiana State.
Cincinnati. the Cincinnati Law
School. Queen (‘ity and the Lexing-
ton ()ld Boys team. Finals will be at
1 Sunday afternoon at the coal field.

Gyninasts tumble in NCAA

The l9th-ranked UK gymnastics
team will compete in the NCAA
Southeast Regionals in Gainesville.
Fla. tomorrow. The Wildcats are
seeded third in the eight-team field.
which features No. 1 ranked Georgia
and third-ranked Florida.

The winner of the regional meet
will advance to the Nationals at
Ogden. Utah. on April 22 and 23rd.
The top five regional teams will
compete at the Nationals. Top indi~
vidual gymnasts will join the win—
ning team advance to the Nationals.

Maurice Britton of Hutchinson Ju-
nior College in Kansas is the third
prized recruit. Word is that Kansas'

national championship has his
thoughts swaying.
Another possible influence on

where both Britton and MacLean go
is where Larry Brown goes. The
Kansas coach is rumored to be
heading to UCLA.

A move by Brown could spur Brit~
ton and MacLean into who knows
what direction.

“Only time will tell,“ Sutton said.
"I would think it could affect the re-
cruitment of both of them."

Sutton said not to laugh if Ken-
tucky is able to land all three re-
cruits. Yes. just two scholarships
are available. But he said numbers
tend to work out in the end.

“I don’t think it‘s a chess game,"
Sutton said. “If we signed 22 it
would be a chess game."

Whatever the game. Sutton still
had his main thoughts on basketball.
He left the Lodge and hit the trail in
search of more pawns. In Lexington,
the dribbling never ends.

“There’s only 189 days until Mid-
night Madness," Sutton said. “Or
something like that."

Lee’s gotta have it

Independent filmmaker Spike Lee is determined to make movies his way

By ROB SENG

Staff Writer

lthough he didn't go to
college in the 1960's during
the Civil Rights movement.

filmmaker Spike Lee still saw plenty
of racial division during his days at

Atlanta‘s Morehouse College.

“You had the lightskinned girls
who everybody wanted and the light-
skinned guys who were real popular
with the girls,“ Lee said in a
telephone interview from Brooklyn.
“If you were real black, you might
as well forget about it."

Lee’s new film, “School Daze.“
which opens today at Turf land Mall,
explores these racial themes while
playing up the comedic events that
transpire during Homecoming Week
at the fictional Mission College

Lee messed around with Super-8
film while majoring in mass
communications at Morehouse. He
began to seriously pursue a film
career when he enrolled at New
York University's graduate film
school. There he completed two
features and an hour—long thesis
film. "Joe Bed Stuy Barbershop: We
Cut Heads,“ which won the Student
Academy Award from the Academy
of Motion Picurc Arts and Scicnccs,

Lee first gained attention in the
film community in 1986 when his
comedy. “She‘s Gotta Have It
received rave reviews and earned
more than $7 million while costing
the independent filmmaker only
$175 000 to make.

it's a culture invasion. For two

 

“There’s nothing in the
film (“School Daze”)
that isn’t true. Forty-
three people have died
recently from hazing
activities and Phi Beta
Sigma has totally
outlawed it, so I mean
it’s no joke."

Spike Lee,

director

 

undergoes an extraordinary amount
of hazing in his attempts to pledge
Gamma Phi Gamma. His portayal
of the pledge activities has drawn
fire from fraternities.

"There's nothing in the film that
isn't true.“ said Lee. “Forty-three
people have died recently from
hazing activities and Phi Beta
Sigma has totally outlawed it. sol
mean it‘s no joke.“

Lee never joined a fraternity at
Morehouse and. while he thinks that
fraternities have great potential. he
thinks that their original meaning
has been corrupted.

“Guys just joined them for the
women and it was amazing the
change that came over women once
you joined one. Your stock went up
100 percent immediately once they
found out you were pledging." he
said.

However. Lee also said that there
is a need for black fraternities on
campuses like UK (which has two>
