Unlocked doors invite burglar
back for more, oficials warn

By Sara Spears
Senior Staff Writer

The string of prowling inci-
dents at UK sorority houses con-
tinued Sunday at the Alpha
Gamma Delta social sorority
house.

The UK Police Department
said there was no evidence of a
forced entry, which means the
burglar entered through an
unlocked door or window. The
burglar entered the property by
using a concrete block to hoist
himself over the privacy fence in
the backgard.

The

urglar was found when

AGD member Beth Thomas woke
up and saw him in her room goin
through her purse, police saicf
They said she then yelled at the
burglar and chased him out of the
house.

Cheri Combs, another member
of the sorority, saw Thomas chase
the burglar out of the house.

“I was standing outside, and I
saw him bust out of the door and
Beth was following him,” Combs
said.

The burglar took more than
$200 in cash from eight different
bedrooms, all of whose doors were
unlocked as well.

UK Police Crime Prevention

Coordinator Stephanie Bastin said
that sorority members are giving
the perpetrator the opportunity to
enter their homes.

Bastin said the same man was
found in the kitchen of the AGD
house last week.

When approached, he insisted
on takin out their trash, and they
let him, Bastin said.

“Unless they start being more
careful and locking their door, he
will keep coming back and coming
back and coming back,” Bastin
said.

The descri tion given by the
sorority mem er who called the
police Sunday night fit the
description of the perpetrator who
was found inside the Kappa Delta
social sorority house last week.

The suspect is not the man

After the man was found in the
KD house last week, the UK
Police Department hand delivered
flyers about the proper precau-

Haiti threat looms,
lill expert says

By Stephen Trlmbie

Executive Editor

The ink of the U.S.-Haiti set—
tlement may prove more costly
than the blood of an initial
American invasion into the
island country, a
UK military
expert predicts.

Vince Davis,
chairman of the
Patterson School
of Diplomacy
and Internation-
al Commerce,
said the last-
minute signing
may have averted an immediate
invasion, but still could lead to
bloodshed and economic grief
for America and Haiti.

“We’re trying to create a
democracy where it never exist-
ed before, Davis said.

Moreover, the peace plan
signed late Sunday night grants
the current army leader, Lt.
Gen. Raoul Cedras, a potentially
month-long grace period to
resist, Davis said. '

He said Cedras and his dis-
senters will, at least, attempt to

nated,”
Davis said.

Davis predicted the common
Haitian population still will fear
the rior regime and will not
quic y support Aristide.

Haiti has tried unsuccessfully
for four decades to hold demo-
cratic elections. The most recent
attempt — 1990 —— ended in
Aristide’s exile to the US. after
only seven months in office.

“There is no way the United
States can'go in and be effective
in the long-term if a country is
unable to overn itself with the
sup rt 0 the people,” Davis
sai .

“Until it’s clear which way the
wind is blowing, the avera e
Haitian won’t support Aristifie
for fear they’ll be picked off by
one of these (soldiers).”

“Plus, it not only lets (the

Howe took a break from

While Howe gives an actu-

Simpson motion
to dismiss charges tails

LOS ANGELES —— O.J. Simpson’s last—ditch
effort before his trial to have murder charges dis-
missed failed yesterday when the judge rejected
defense arguments that the case was based on slop-
py and dishonest detective work.

Superior CourtJudge Lance Ito upheld an earli~
er ruling by Municipal Court Judge Kathleen
Kennedy—Powell that detectives acted properly
when they entered Simpson’s estate hours after the
June 12 slayings without a search warrant and found
bloody evidence. Ito said the officers were under—
standably concerned when no one answered the
doorbell or phone at Simpson’s estate and they
spotted what appeared to be blood on his Bronco,
which was parked askew in the street.

WASHINGTON —— The world’s big cities are

Anti-altortion activist laces first trial

PENSACOLA, Fla. — A jury was selected yes-

The jurors are to hear testimony today in
Escambia County Court on the two misdemeanor

“Mommy, mommy, why can’t you love me?”

College to vote on dress code

Pharmacy ofi‘lcials, students
meet today to discuss proposal

By Jason Datiilo
Staff Writer

The College of Pharmacy’ 5
Student Advisory Council will
meet again tomorrow to discuss
and possibly vote on the college’s
proposed dress code

The proposal originally was
suggested to SAC by Jordan
Cohen, dean of the College of
Pharmacy, on Sept. 13 and has
since touched off a debate between
students and faculty.

Kristen Bailey, 3 tifth— —year
pharmacy student, said students
are confused about the administra—
tion’s role in the suggestion of this
proposal.

“Eve body is confused about
who really implemented the dress
code ~— whether it was the admin—
istration or the students,” Bailey
said. “There has been a lot of con-
cern that we have been tricked. ”

One student who wished to
remain anonymous said he would
not support a dress code because
of the expense involved in bu ing
new clothes. He also said ress
codes limit personal freedom

“I guess some peo le would go
along with it,” saidt e unidenti-
fied third- -year pharmacy student.
“But I wouldn’t.”

SAC chairman Kevin Adams
said the media and even pharmacy
students have yet to give the dress
proposal a chance.

“Right now there is a lot of ay
area,” Adams said. “This w ole
thing has just been blown out of
proportion, and that kind of upsets
me.”

Some students claim a dress
code would be a violation of their
personal freedom, but Cohen said

the proposal would increase the
degree of “professionalism” within
the college

Cohen said the agenda of
today’s meeting is uncertain He
said the advisory council 15 going
to discuss stipulations of the dress
code

A vote is not inevitable and the
proposal could be tabled again or
even thrown out completely,
Cohen said.

“The students
are simply
going to
discuss
. the pro—
posed
._ guidelines
' and pre-
sumably
agree to

modify

 

' perhaps

' not to go
with
them,” he
said.

I. (‘I’m
not really
.. .. .. .. - sure how
the meeting will go."

Cohen refused comment on a
course of action if SAC rejects the
proposal.

Cohen said he proposed the
dress code to the council, but he
added that the structuring of the
proposal was left up to the stu-
dents.

“Our issue is professionaliza-
tion,” Cohen said. “I feel very
strongly about how important our
role is in helping professionalizing
our student and getting them

ready for work in the health—care
field.”

Cohen said the debate has been
clouded by conflicting reports and
“premature” discussion. He said
today’s meeting should help sort
the issues.

“I think all the discussion is
very much premature,” he said.
“The students hadn’t really even
had the chance to develop a pro—
posal and have a decent conversa-
tion before it hit the newspaper.”

Students given

search

for aid director

By Carrie Morrison
Cmpw Editor

UK’s labyrinth of financial
aid bureaucracy is about to
switch hands, and some UK stu-
dents will have a voice in who
will direct those scholastic dol-
lars.

Tonight, interviewing will
begin for four candidates who
have applied for the position of
director of the Student Financial
Aid Office.

A committee of 10 students,
chosen by Student Government
Association president T.A. Jones

Blanton said: “We’re trying
to re-engineer some of the pro-
cesses in financial aid.”

Ten committees in Student
Financial Aid have been formed
to tackle 52 new challenges, he
said.

Among them is a direct loan
service, designed to eliminate
complications and waiting for
UK loans that usually must go
through banks and federal
offices.

position when former director
Bobby Halsey retired last spring.

“It’s so difficult to get a lean,”
Jones said.
“We’ve got to find a way to

take into account that you're
serving three different popula—
tions.”

The prospective directors
will be reviewed for a period of
four weeks.

Blanton said a decision prob—
ably will be reached in mid-

Cross-cultural retreat seeks diversity

By Cynthia Wan

Contributing Writer

A cross-cultural weekend workshop at Nat-
ural Bridge State Park scheduled for Saturday
and Sunday is lacking students from Africa,
Latin America and America, said International
Program Coordinator Martin Boseman.

Although the application deadline for the
retreat has passed, people in these ethnic
groups may place their names on a waiting list.
Students already registered for the two-day
trip should confirm their reservations with

UK’s Foreign Students Adviser Carolyn
Holmes by Thursday.

“There are usually one or two people who
can’t go,” Holmes said.

To date, 24 students from Germany, Fin—
land, Malaysia, Ukraine, India, Sri Lanka and
the US are signed up for the cross-cultural
weekend.

“We wish to have better nationality varia—
tions in the workshop,” said Mark Spears, an
International Affairs participant training assis-
tant. “The majority we have now is Asian.”

Boseman said the workshop is designed to

address issues that arise when people from dif-
ferent backgrounds gather together.

Through these, students will learn how to
response to unfamiliar behaviors and avoid
inaccurate labeling of people from other cul-
tures, Boseman said.

“Foreign students often complain about
being alienated, misinterpreted, feeling lonely
or out of place,” Boseman said.

“This workshop can help them to develop
communicating skills.”

For more information on this weekend’s
workshop, contact Holmes at 25 7-6601.

“ econdly, we realized we were holding
something of great monetary value. Natur
rally, someone who has a dining fee put on
the card and CopyCat char es could have
hundreds of dollars (of credit on the card."

In previous semesters, library officials
were worried about reference desk workers
losing student IDs and the library’s being
held responsible for the lost cards. -

“If the card was picked up or misplaced
by someone at the desk, the libra didn’t
want to be responsible for the car ,” Lach

said.
“We’renotgoingtocakean ' val -
able as security. We just want some of

identification that assures they will return
the material.”

Students who don’t have driver’s licenses
or other identification have an alternative.

“A number of people have never had a
driver’s license, so we ask them to sign a
card and leave their social securi number,”
said Sandra McAninch, head 0 the refer-
ence/ vernment publications/map depart-
ment r UK Libraries.

“The books we have are on heavy circu-
lation. And we have to have some way to t
them to brin the books back to the desk.

McAninc said she believes that if stu-

dents are informed about the new policy,
they should have no complaints about the
way things currently work.

She said the new folicy is working fine
and a majority of stu ents are not complain-

Picture IDs are preferred, so the librari-
ans can be sure a student is receiving the
right identification back after returning the
borrowed books.

“We take IDs or alternatives hundreds of
times a day because we’re 'ving students
something valuable and holding something
in return,” said Tom Hecker, reference
librarian at M I. ' Library.

UK’s Habitat for Humanity
chapter is finishing construction
on its second home in Lexington.

“Very few university chapters
have com leted two houses. This
is a si nificant accomplishment,”
said can of Students David
Stockham, who is the chapter’s
adviser.

The house, a three-bedroom,
one—bath starter home at 515
Dunaway St., will belong to
Clarence Johnson and family.

UK’s Habitat chapter, which
was chartered in fall 1990, is one
of 320 campus chapters of the
non-profit organization, including
20 high school chapters.

Habitat for Humanity Interna—
tional was founded in fall 1976 by
Linda and Millard Fuller. Head-
quartered in Americus, Ga., the
organization is a non-profit, non—
denominational, Christian hous-
ing ministry that works with peo-
ple in need of decent, simple
affordable housin .

Students, facufity and staff have
donated time and labor generously
throughout the project, which is
about 80 percent complete, said
Bill Rayens, construction liaison
to the project.

PORT-AU—PRINCE, Haiti
-— U.S. soldiers descended on
Haiti yesterday as peacekeepers,
not invaders, receiving a warm
welcome and meeting no resis—
tance as they began their mission
to restore the country’s elected
leadership.

Haitians climbed over fences at
the capital’s port to greet U.S.
Army soldiers, part of wave after
wave of arriving troops and van—
guard of an occupation force,
which will enforce the agreement
that averted an invasion of this
impoverished nation.

The overwhelming greeting
emphasized the general support
Haitians gave to soldiers who will
keep the peace in a country
wracked by years of brutal Haitian
army rule.

The port takeover, where pro-
U.S. crowds lining the docks
swelled to thousands by the after—
noon, followed similar maneuvers
at the international airport as U.S.
forces seized key posts in the capio
tal.

Troops warily climbed off
Cobra and Black Hawk heli—
copters that crossed from U.S.
warships offshore this morning
and set down at the international

Questions and answers about
the pact between the United
States and Haiti that prevented
the invasion, and how it will be
implemented:

Q. How many U.S. troops are
going to Haiti and how long will
they stay?

A. By day’s end yesterday,
3,000 Americans were to be on the
ground. The United States should

ave 14,000 to 15,000 troops in
Haiti by next weekend. Some of
them will remain for months to set
up an interim police force. When
the country seems stable and Aris—
tide’s government is on its feet,
the peacekeeping task will be
turned over to the United
Nations.

Q. What are the main elements
of the accord reached Sunday?

A. Military ruler Lt. Gen.
Raoul Cedras and his two top
commanders are to resign by Oct.
15.. Until then, they are to assist
the U.S.—led occupation. Deposed
President Jean-Bertrand Aristide
will return and the high command
will be protected by an amnesty
law to be approved by the Haitian
congress.

Q. What does Aristide think
about the accord?

A. Aristide had no public com—
ment, but his \Vashing'ton lawyer,
former Rep. Michael Barnes,
called the agreement “highly
imperfect."

Q. When will the world trade
embargo on Haiti be lifted?

A. he U.N. Security Council
was to convene yesterday to con- '
sider lifting the embargo. A vote
was expected as early as today.

airfield. Huge transport aircraft
followed with landings in the
afternoon.

Earlier at first light, two U.S.
warships and a Coast Guard cutter
glided into port and secured the
main harbor. An aircraft carrier
shimmered in the mist on the
horizon.

US. Marines were deployed in
the northern city of Cap—Haitien.
Arriving troops, some from the
10th Mountain Division based in
Fort Drum, N.Y., and some veter—
ans of Somalia, said the takeovers
went much smoother that those in
the African nation.

“It seems like the Haitian peo—
ple are happy for us to be here
right now but there’s always a bad
apple in every bunch,” said Staff
Sgt. Clifford Drysdale, of Colum—
bus, Ga., who spent a six—month
tour in Somalia.

Under a cloudless blue sky,
Maj. Gen. David Meade, com-
mander of the army’s 10th Moun-
tain Division, told reporters on
arrival at the Port-au-Prince air—
port, “We haven’t seen any resis—
tance and we haven't expected
any."

Helicopters overfiying Port—au—
Prince broadcast, in the local Cre—
ole language, the following mes-
sage: “‘Stay calm. \Ve’re not at
war. VVe’re here to restore democ—

racy and supply humanitarian aid.”

Lt. Gen. Henry Hugh Shelton,
field commander of the Haiti
operation and former head of the
82nd Airborne division, arrived
after the airfield was secured.

Shelton met at the Haitian
army headquarters with military
leader Lt. Gen. Raoul Cedras.
Under the agreement reached late
Sunday, Cedras is to relinquish
power by Oct. 15.1n Washin on,
there was relief that a mi itary
conflict had been avoided. At the
same time, questions were raised
about whether President Clinton
had been too accommodating to
Cedras.

Clinton yesterday conceded the
situation “remains difficult" while
former President Carter —— sent to
Haiti by Clinton in a last—ditch
effort to avoid an invasion —
called the effort a success.

“We believe that the overriding
result has been the avoidance of
massive bloodshed and perhaps an
extended period of occupation,”
Carter said. He, former joint
chiefs of staff Gen. Colin Powell,
and Sen. Sam Nunn, D.—Ga.,
negotiated the
