With the promise of
sun, beaches, drinks

some things to do
now to get ready for
Spring Break.

stuck at a foam

I fart in my bubble

worse than frying to

say is never pass out
in the sun. That is
not good.

By Sterling Rouse

STAFF WRITER

touch with their ability to create
change within their communities.

"it's not that they have forgot
ten [their rolel." he said. "It's just
that nobody taught it to them."

He said that. historically.
great black journalists were
people who used their position to
improve their environment. with»
out losing the objectivity that is
the hallmark ofjournalism.

But Parker was quick to
point otit that his message ex~
tends beyond the realms ot‘jour-
nalism and blackness. and en-
couraged all students to attend.

Born in 192:”), Parker escaped
poverty to earn a bachelor‘s and
master's degree from lllinois
State University. He also received
a doctorate in psychology frotii
(‘olumbia Pacific University. He
has done postgraduate work at
Case-Western Reserve. Princeton.

Zoned out: Ole Miss defense stifles UK

l'K coach Bernadette Mattox didn't have to worry about get

Mattox credited the Lady Rebels' defense for preyenting her
team from doitig what they wanted to do.

“Mississippi came in with a game plan to take away the mid
dle." Mattox said. “They packed it in with that zone and forced its
to shoot from the outside."

l'K's perimeter players were hesitant to take many of the
shots the Ole Miss defense was allowing. but when they did shoot.
they were ineffective. making only two of to three-point attempts.

"We‘re capable." Mattox said of her team‘s ability to shoot the

doing."

UK started the game hot. outscoring the Lady Rebels lit-l in
the first four minutes. The early lead was short-lived. however. as
Ole Miss went on a 1872 run of their own. cultninating on a foul
shot by Lady Rebel junior guard Sherika Wright that put Ole Miss
up 32-15 with 8:25 left in the first half.

Poul trouble plagued the (tits throughout the first halfas Ole

Miss connected on Iii of 17 free throws versus just three attempts
at the line for ['K.

The UK coach again attributed the (‘ats‘ fouling and defen
siye problems to the way Ole Miss had affected the team mentally.

“We didn't move our feet." Mattox said. “'l‘onight they packed
that thing in and offensively when it wasn't clicking. we let it af-
fect Us defensively."

The first half was capped by a half-court prayer by (lle Miss
senior guard Becky Myatt just before the buzzer. Myatt's shot
gave the Lady Rebels a 37-24 lead at the break.

[K was led by the play of freshman center SeSe Helm who
tallied gatne highs in scoring and rebounding with El [mints and
10 boards. respectively .

Helm recorded her first-ever career double-double before foul
ing out with 1:38 left,

Even though Helm had reached that individual milestone for
the first time, she was ultimately disaijiinted with the loss.

“it wasn‘t a ‘W.”' Helm said. "I don't really focus on (loit-
ble-doubles or triple-doubles. 1 focus on the fundamental
things to win."

Roccanova. who has overseen the project for all eight
semesters of its existence. jumped at the chance to
participate.

"A project like this affects everything you do for
the rest of your life." he said.

He said the hzlilflS'tm experience benefits students

“We're building a bridge between the community

at the (‘ollege of Architecture.

Hut fourth anti fifth year architecture students are
building more than just a bridge. Since the fall of I998.
more than 60 students have mastermindcxi the building
of a wellness center in Wenchburg. Ky.

The Frenchburg community wanted a wellness cen-

The issue: Students attending UK

For the last two years, corporate communica-
tions junior .lon Rasmussen. 25. has attended school
full-time. But he always paid full price for his UK
sports tickets. his good grades didn't get him on the
dean's list and he never had the chance to get PK
health insurance.

Rasmussen‘s problems are familiar to anyone
who attends UK and LC(‘ with 12 or more hours com-
bined between the two. Though LCC is part of UK's
educational system and general education courses
are of equal merit at the two schools. one must be a
full-time student at one of the schools. not both. to
take advantage of some basic full-time benefits.

LCC transfer students.

“It comes up on their [com-
puter] system that you've tak-
en classes at LCC. but it won‘t
calculate your GPA." Ras-
ntttssen said. "They say LCC is
a separate entity. but i use the
same lD.“

Many frustrations like
these are being remedied, said
LCC president Jim Kerley.

“The problem before was
that we were on a different com-
puting system. so everything
was different." Kerley said.

Kerley said some of the dif-
ficulties faced by students who
attend both schools have been
fixed and ntore changes are on
the horizon.

“Now we‘re on the same
system... and we‘re working
through those bugs now." KerA
ley said. “UK‘s going to he go-

ing to a new administrative
computing system and we will
be flowing right with that. i
think that's when we‘ll see
some changes.“

Improvements that have al-
ready been made include plus
account acceptance at LCC and
VIP class registration and bill
pay for both schools. Kerley
said.

He said there are frequent
meetings between the two ad-
ministrations that deal with is-
sues like this. Kerley said this
will remain an important topic
with UK‘s new president. Lee
Todd.

Kerley also said he will
soon look ittto creating a
smooth flow of transcripts from
LCC to UK for transfer stu—
dents. UK anti LCC are sepa-
rately accredited institutions
with different base tuitions and
admissions policies.

“Because the two schools
have separate missions." Ker-
ley said. “it‘s part of the prob-
lem, but it doesn‘t need to be a
roadblock."

rors" is a musical black come
dy about getting everything you
want at the cost of your soul.
The main character is a no-
body named Seymour who
works at a florist shop on Skid
Row. Seymour's luck changes
when he finds a plant that no
one has ever seen before. As the
plant grows and gets more inter-
esting. Seymour‘s fame grows as
well. until his floral shop is the

after a girl that Seymour has a
crush on. can talk and has an
insatiable thirst for human
blood. Seymour is presented
with the problem of finding
food for Audrey II and not hav-
ing to kill anybody. Finding
this impossible. he has to resort
to getting appropriate victims
for his talking plant.

All the while Seymour. at
the cost of his conscience, is get-
ting everything he ever wanted.
including Audrey‘s love.

The music in the play is ac-

tend to be a bit campy. the
songs are fun and they really

The acting was also fairly
good. Steve Routman does an
excellent job at playing the
goofy Seymour. He really

drey as well and Michael James
Leslie does a good job as the
voice of Audrey II.

The play was good, it just
seemed to try too hard to be just

like the movie. The best part of

the play is where it breaks
away from the movie. It is not
so much a happy ending. like in
the movie. but a warning.

This makes the play worth
seeing. but it's not something 1

FRANKFORT - The law
that makes it a crime
for lawyers to solicit
business from

Victims within 30
days of the event lS
constitutional. the
Kentucky Supreme
Court ruled Thursday.

The Justices said that
while the Kentucky
Constitution
generally reserves all
matters relating to
lawyers and their
diSCipline to them,
the General Assembly
has the authority to
determine
criminal conduct.

Another part of the law,
which prohibited
solicitation within 30
days of the filing of a
civil lawsmt, criminal
charge or traffic
citation, had earlier
been found
unconstitutional.

James W. Chambers, a
personal injury
lawyer, said the law
infringed on his
constitutional right of
free speech as well
as the court's
authority
over lawyers.

CHATTANOOGA. Tenn. -
Signed letters from
Franklin D. Roosevelt

were among dozens
of political keepsakes
found inside a
scrapbook salvaged

The black, leather-bound
book chronicles the
life of Charles
Seward, grandson of
Abraham Lincoln’s
secretary of state.
William Seward A
woman rooting
through the bins
stumbled across the
book and turned it
over to authorities
last week.

Police traced Seward's
daughter and plan to
give it to her. but
neither she nor the
authorities have any
idea how it ended up
in the garbage.

The letters, including
several from Georgia
politicians Gov.
Eugene Talmadge and
Sen. Richard Russell,
date back to the
l9305. One dated
Nov. 1, 1968, is signed
by then‘preSidential
candidate Nixon.
