A 22-year-old UK student was
struck and killed Saturday night at
the intersection of Euclid and
Woodland avenues by a westbound
vehicle.

Thomas Michael Geoghegan was
crossing the intersection against the
traffic light at 8:32 pm, said Offi-
cer Joseph Carr of the Lexington-
Fayette Urban County Police De-
partment.

“Whether or not he was in the
crosswalk, we don’t know,” said
Charles Howell, deputy coroner for
Fayette County.

Geoghegan, a resident of Kirwan
II, was a geography junior from
Bardstown, Ky.

The 16-year-old driver and the
two passengers in the vehicle were
not injured. The driver was taken to
Central Baptist Hospital for a rou-
tine blood test before being released
into the custody of his father. Offi-
cer Kevin Robinson said the results
of the blood test will not be availa-

Two Haggin residents
to be arraigned today

By GREGORY A. HALL

Two UK students are scheduled
for arraignment today in Lexington-
Fayette Urban County District
Court in connection with an alleged
rape that occurred in Haggin Hall
last week.

Jeffrey Tomlin and Chad Van-
nauker, both l8-year~old Arts and
Sciences freshmen from Bowling
Green, Ky., were arrested Friday af-
ter a 19—year-old freshman woman
filed a rape report with the UK Po—
lice Department.

District Court arraignments for
the two men will take place in
Courtroom 5 beginning at 9 am.
today.

A third reported assailant is being
investigated by UK and Lexington
police but has not yet been identi-
lied

Tomlin was released Saturday on
a $10,000 bond posted by Darrell
Gene Smith of Bowling Green.
Vannauker remains at the Lexing-
ton-Fayette Urban County Deten—
tion Center.

According to a University press
release, the alleged rape took place
between the late evening of Tues-
day Nov. 14 and the early morning
of Wednesday Nov. 15.

The alleged incident occurred in
section B on the fourth floor of
Haggin Hall. Floor residents were
told not to discuss the alleged inci-
dent, according to one ﬂoor resi-
dent.

“l’m not supposed to say any-
thing about it,“ said Bruce Dadis-
man, a fourth ﬂoor resident.

When asked to identify who gave
the order, Dadisman said, “I can’t. I
just don’t want to say."

Section B, founh ﬂoor resident
adviser Paul Bishop also would not
comment.

“You will have to talk to Craig
Hart," Bishop said.

Han, the Haggin Hall director,
said he would “relay all questions
to (Residence Life Director) Bob
Clay."

Clay said he was unaware of any-
one trying to silence the fourth
floor residents.

“1 don‘t know anything about
that," Clay said. “I've talked to the
staff about that. Folks on B4 don't
want to talk to the press and it‘s
their right."

However, Clay said the Universi-
ty has “a need-to-know policy,"
meaning information concerning
an incident is given only to those

Thomas Michael Geoghegan, 22,

remembered by family,

intelligent and a friend to all
are some of the words used to de-
scribe UK junior Thomas Mi-
chael Geoghegan.

“A lot of people knew him. He
was fun to be around,” said Seth
Atwell, an accounting senior.
“He knew of a lot of things go-
ing on in the world.”

Geoghegan, a geography ma
jet, was pronounced dead at Good
Samaritan Hospital Saturday
night after he was struck by a ve-
hicle at the Woodland-Euclid in-
tersection.

“I met him back in high
school,” said Larry Gillis, a his-
tory senior. “He was part of a
little group we got. We were real~
ly good friends. Everybody called
him Cage and he liked it.”

“He was always honest, fun to
be around,” said Leilan Barlow,

“He was a fine young
man. He did enjoy
spelunking and enjoyed
several sports, among
them basketball.”

Student code
is unclear
concerning
rape cases

By KAKIE URCH
Senior Staff Writer

Rape is not one of the spe-
cific punishable disciplinary
offenses cited in the UK
Code of Student Conduct in
the Student Rights and Re-
sponsibilities handbook.

Rape, which carries a felo-
ny charge, is covered under
the “broad sweep” of Section
1.21, Article f., which de-
fines a punishable discipli—
nary offense as “the commis-
sion of acts which constitute
a violation of local, state or
federal law upon University
property,” said Dean of Stu—
dents Deug Wilson.

“The attitude of the com-
mittee (which formulates the
student code) has been over
the years that it's hard to sin-
gle out an offense,” Wilson
said.

Wilson declined to com-
ment on any application of
the code to the alleged rape
last week in Haggin Hall
which currently is under in-
vestigation.

When the Dean of Stu-
dents' office looks at any
commission of a punishable
disciplinary offense, “each in-
cident is adjudicated individu-
ally on the basis of its own
facts." Wilson said.

Vice Chancellor for Stu-
dent Affairs James Kudcr said

who need it to perform their job.
He said a rumor that residents on
84 aren't being allowed to answer
their phones is unfounded.
“We don‘t have that many RAs,"
Clay said.

Wins give
Cool Cats
impressive
9-1 record

By GREGORY A. HALL
Staff Writer

Most fans saw what they want-
ed at Saturday night‘s UK-South

Florida hockey game —— plenty of

fighting among the players and
arguing between the South Flori-
da coach and the referees. who at
one point threatened to call off
the game.

The Cool Cats defeated the
Bulls 7-3, sweeping the two-
gamc weekend series and advanc-
ing their record to 9—1. UK won
Friday‘s game by a 6-5 margin.

A fight at 3:10 in the third per-
iod involved almost everyone on
the ice and provoked a verbal war
between USF coach Tony Man»
cuso and the referee.

“Those were the worst referees
I have ever seen," Mancuso said.
“He let the game get out of hand.
Four guys got hurt. I played in
professional hockey, and I never
saw anything like this."

The two losses dropped the 3-1
Bulls to the .500 mark.

“It was a tough game for every-
body -—7 coaches, referees and
players,“ UK coach Phil Davcn-
port said. “I think we came back
and did what it took to win the
game in the third period. Overall
it wasn't our best game."

South Florida had a 2-1 lead at
the conclusion of two periods,
but in the third period, UK ex,
plodcd for six goals while the
Bulls scored only one.

“The first and second period
they were up on us in goals, so
they were in a defensive shell,"
UK ccntcr Chad Cooper said.
“When we took the lead, it was
hard for them to make the change
into the offensive mode.“

But according to Cooper, who
scored four goals, the failure in
the first two periods was based in
part on the team's attitude.

“It took me a while to get go-
ing,“ Cooper said. “Coach had a
talk with me between the second
