C mpromise re

Amelated Prue

FRANKFORT, Ky. — University
boards would retain at least half
their current members under a com-
promise worked out by Gov. Brere-
ton Jones and leading Democrats on
the Senate Education Committee.

The proposed changes make the
House bill “a hundred percent better
than it was." though it still won't be
easy to pass, said Senate President
Pro Tem John “Eek“ Rose (D-

Winchester).

Sen. Ed Ford (DoCynthiana) said
the revised bill will come before his
education committee next Thurs-
day. He already has discussed the
changes with committee members.

“The majority of them feel like
this settles the continuity issue,"
Ford said. “Now, it remains to be
seen whether it will pass or not. But
I believe that it will."

Senate leaders have been meeting
the past two days with the sponsor

of the bill, Rep. Ernesto Scorsone
(D-Lexington), and Kevin Hable,
who is Jones' cabinet secretary.

Jones wants to purge the boards
and set up a selection committee to
screen and nominate three appli-
cants for each board seat. He would
then choose new trustees and re-
gents from that select pool.

The compromise would require
the governor to fill at least half of
the unrestricted appointments to
boards and the state Council on

‘, u.
I . 5

Higher Education with incumbent
members. Seats reserved for alum-
ni, faculty members and students
would be filled by a different meth-
od.

Most of each board’s current
members would be put into a pool
of nominees, and the governor
would fill vacancies from that pool.

The overall measure, House Bill
149, cleared the House on Jan. 17
on the strength of support from
Jones and House Democratic lead-

ers. Its main objective is putting a
stop to politically motivated ap-
pointments, but key senators fear
the implied mandate for a clean
sweep could wreck continuity on
boards and create turmoil on cam-
puses.

The compromise worked out
Wednesday is one of several pro~
posed changes likely to go before
the Senate Education Committee
next Thursday. All the changes are
said by those involved in negotia-

New facets likely to appear in a

Soviet teacher finds
new home at UK

By NICK COMEFI
Senior Staff Writer

Raymond Krishchyunas is a man
without a country, so to speak.

Born in Soviet Georgia. but tech-
nically a Lithuanian, he attended
college in Moscow and spent 15
years teaching in Georgia.

But Krishchyunas claims he is a
citizen of the Soviet Union, al-
though it now exists only as a part
of history.

While the Western world cheers
the breakup of the Soviet Union,
he laments the loss of stability and
sees his country headed ominously
in the same direction in which it
was going in autumn of 1917.

Krishchyunas, who left the So-
viet Union two weeks before the
aborted coup against Mikhail Gor-
bachev, now teaches geography at
UK. But his droughts often return
to his country.

It is a country that is unprepared
for the transition to capitalism, a
process that is doomed to fail, he
said.

“The cultural and psychological
obstacles are just as important, if
not more important, than the physi-
cal obstacles," he said.

The people living in the former
Soviet states lack many of the tools
to make the capitalistic economy
mn, Krishchyunas said, including a
lack of innovators, who were sup-

 

pressed under the rule of Joseph
Stalin.

“There are no entrepreneurs." he
said. “Where do you get them?"

When Gorbachev made it easier
to travel outside of the country,
many intellectuals, like Krish-
chyunas, hit the road. In a sense, it
was a Soviet “brain drain."

Krishchyunas also faults the
leaders of the new states, many of
whom, like Russian president Bor-
is Yeltsin, are “repainted commu-
nists" in his judgment. Such lead-
ers are unwilling to discuss needed
reforms like taxes, he said.

“They have been talking reform
for five years," Krishchyunas said.
“Where is it?"

The leadership in the Soviet re-
publics has been torn apart by ul-
tra-rightists and ultra-leftists, he
said.

The unity of the Soviet repub~
lics also has been rent by a wave
of ethnic tensions.

But this is nothing new, Krish-
chyunas said. He saw such ten-
sions firsthand, even before Gor-
bachev's Perestroika opened the
floodgates for democracy and free
speech. , , ._ _ . ,,

“When I was growing up in
Georgia, I was a second-rate citi—
zen because I was not a Geor-
gian," he said.

Russians, who are seen as privi-

Senior Staff Writer

Imagine quitting school one year
before graduation.

One measly year.

But for former UK student Tam-
my Hayes, 22, another year of
working two jobs —— and studying
something that didn’t interest her -
was going to stop.

“Basically, I was wasting money
staying in school," Hayes said. “My
parents were paying for school, and
I felt bad about it."

Many people close to her were
surprised when she dropped out.

Then something extraordinary
happened.

Dan Knapp. 21, a friend of
Hayes, kept telling her she was
making a big mistake. But he took it
one step further — a big step, into
the homes of America. And it all
began on a recent visit to Chicago.

Knapp attended the taping of the
“Jenny Jones Show." Like other
daytime talk shows, “Jenny Jones"
examines contemporary issues
among everyday people. But unlike
other talk shows. it calls for the au-
dience to vote on issues discussed.

Following the show, Knapp re-
ceived a questionnaire about deci-
sion-making. Knapp, who thought
of his friend's decision to leave

school, jolted it down on the sur-
vey.

He later received a call from the
show requesting more information
about Hayes’ sudden departure
from the University, and Knapp's
constant reminder that she made a
mistake.

Hayes and Knapp accepted the
offer to appear on the talk show,
which will air on NBC Tuesday
morning at IO.

They spent the day strutting
around Chicago, shopping, sight-
seeing and dining at Chicago's
Hard Rock Cafe.

Then it was over to the show,

where the two first met hostess Jen-
ny Jones.

”She was wonderful,“
said. “A really nice person."

But before meeting Jones, Knapp
said he was so nervous “I could
barely talk.“

Both argued their sides to the au-
dience.

“She has so much to give to peo-
ple, besides asking them if they
want fries with their meal." Knapp
said of Hayes.

While most seemed to side with
him, some agreed with her: “Who

Wilkinson did ‘fair job,’ survey says

Nearly three-fourths of the Kcn»

think former Gov. Wallace Wilkin-
son did at least a fair job as govcm~

In a separate question, thc \itlllc‘

other govemors.

Abortion, sexual harassment and
President Bush were among the var—

phone survey, which was conducted

during November and December.

Of the 650 people interviewed by

the respondents believe states
should not be allowed to prohibit
abortions.

And 57 percent said they would
oppose making abortion illegal in
Kentucky. The results from the

is perfect for Win

By ERNEST L WRENTMORE
Staff Writer

Sharon Fanning gave the her
team a bit of anecdotal inspiration
printed on game notes for their up-
coming matchup against the Uni-
versity of Alabama in Tuscaloosa
tomorrow.

“Winning at the right time is im-
portant . Now is the right time,"
wrote Lady Kat coach Fanning.

Fanning, who uses every tech-
nique shy of a stun gun to motivate
her players, was watching film until
2:15 am. Wednesday when she
created her most recent version,
comparable to a Knute Rockne
quip.

“I was a little delirious, but I
think it definitely fits."

It fits, all right.

UK is on a four-game winning
streak and is off to a 4-1 Southeast-
ern Conference start. If UK defeats
the Crimson Tide, it will match its
best start ever in the SEC.

Stacy McIntyre, UK's leading
scorer at 16.6 points per game, said
beating Alabama would be as big as
any win so far this year.

“If we can beat 'Bama, we will
have so much more confidence
against Tennessee next week,"
McIntyre said. “We would be so
pumped up."

Tennessee, defending national

champion, cunently is ranked No. 4
in the latest USA Today Women's
Basketball Poll.

The Lady Kats had problems ear-
lier in the season looking past oppo-
nents, but they can't look past Ala-
bama (14-4, 2-3 SEC), ranked No.
22 in the same poll. Although the
Kats will play on the road, they're
brimming with confidence.

Kristi Cushenberry, who led UK
with 23 points in the last game, said
playing in Tuscaloosa shouldn’t be
much of a factor in the final out-
come.

“We believe we can beat any-
body on the road." Cushenberry
said. “We already beat Western
Kentucky and Auburn on the road
and they were both ranked in the
top 20. We can go down there and
beat them."

Alabama coach Rick Moody said
both teams play a similar style of
basketball, and it will come down
to which team makes the shots at
the right time.

“We’re gonna have an old-
fashioned shootout." Moody said.
“The team that gets the victory will
be the team that executes the best."

Fanning is concerned about Ala-
bama's perimeter shooting, and
rightfully so. Bama has connected
on 149-425 treys for 35.1 percent.

“They have three three-point
shooters on the floor at all times,

“They get them open by penetrating
and kicking the ball back out be-
hind the arc. So, we are going to
need to contain their penetration."

Last year, the Tide defeated UK
72-65 when Alabama's Linda Bur-
gess took control of the game. The
6-foot-l forward leads Alabama in
SEC scoring (19.6 ppg) this year as
well.

“Burgess wore us down and took
over that game," Fanning said. “She
is very good inside and gives them
a balanced attack.”

Moody tried to downplay his
team’s chance of winning. When
asked what Alabama needed to ac-
complish to win, he said, “."Pray

Prayer might not do a lot, but his
five starters average a combined 67

points per game.

Fanning said she thought UK was
better than its record indicated and
still has a chance at the NCAA
Tournament.

“In my mind, we’re better than a
lot of the teams that are ranked,"
Fanning said. “There's so many
good teams now in the Top 50 or
60, and the (NCAA) committee is
checking our record closely. There
is such a fine line between who
makes it and who doesn't."

The Lady Kats can only hope
Fanning is able to deliver that line.

Cool Cats to return
to war in the South

By DAVE LAVENDER
Staff Writer

UK's Cool Cats played last week-
end like it was a great Southem
epic.

Marching into Atlanta's Stone
Mountain Ice Center. the men in
blue were in, out and gone with the
wins before South Florida could
wave the white flag.

This weekend, the Cool Cats are
on the road again. Like last week-
end. they are playing South Florida
on Saturday night.

They also are playing in Atlanta
in a Southern Conference double-
header against South Florida and
Duke on Sunday.

As Yogi Berra once said, “It’s
like deja vu, all over again."

Like Eastern Kentucky Universi-
ty, not even a bump in the road for
the UK men's basketball team,
South Florida (6-2-1), the second
place team in the league's Western
division, showed up in Atlanta in
the form of a miniscule pothole on
the UK Cool Cats' road to the Na-
tional Collegiate Division II Hock-
ey Tournament in March.

The Cool Cats (16-2) and ranked
No. l in the last national Division II
poll, swept an SEC weekend dou-
bleheader from South Florida 6-3,
4-3.

However, it wasn‘t the normal
weekend of rest and relaxation that
the Cool Cats usually enjoy against
South Florida. They won 6-3 on
Saturday night, but they had to
mount a nail-biting, come-from-
behind effort to claim a 4-3 win on
Sunday morning at the Stone
Mountain Ice Center, home of the
University of Georgia's club hock-
ey team.

The Cool Cats wasted no time
Saturday in unleashing their domi-
neering style of skating on the b0ys
from the “Sunshine State."

Art Wickson, the Cool Cats’
“Terminator," showed not only that
he is a good man to have on your
side if your team needs to establish
a little authority. but also that he

Winger Don Kindrachuck gave the
Cool Cats a 10 lead. South Florida
tied the game 1-1. However, South
Florida soon melted under a flurry
of Cool Cat goals, as Chad Cooper
assisted a Jason Bennett goal, then
scored an unassisted goal to push
the lead to 3-1.

Smithwick notched another assist
in the first period on a goal by
winger Roy Henry to give the Cool
Cats a 4-1 cushion. Chad Cooper.
the leading scorer in the Southern
Conference with 43 goals and 32
assists, tallied an unassisted third
period insurance goal with 9:36 left
for the final score.

After a rough weekend against
Purdue, goalie Eric Sanders re-
turned to form with 32 saves on
Saturday.

Early Sunday morning, with
Georgian church bells and South
Florida players' heads ringing in
chorused unison, the Cool Cats
found themselves in a weird predic-
ament that road trips often allow.

Not only were the late-playing,
late-rising Cool Cats forced to play
before noon, but the defending SC
champs were late scoring, finding
themselves down to a conference
foe in the third period, 2-3.

Chad Cooper tied the game 1-1
early in the second period off as—
sists by Mike Wolf and Smitltwick.
Paul Cerabona tied the game again
in the second with assists to Chad
Cooper and Smithwick. '

Center Doug Oppelt put an end to
South Florida‘s threat, tying the
game. Pelligreen got the assist.
With 0:56 seconds left in the con-
test, South Florida called a timeout.
It proved to be a deadly timeout. As
it gave Chad Cooper, who had been
playing three-on-three along with
his brother Jeff and Nick Pelligreen,
time to catch his breath: a costly
mistake. Jeff hit Chad with a pass
off the faceoff and skated past a
lone defenseman with 0:10 seconds
left in the game.

Sunday’s game was the first start
and win for Sanders’ backup, Chad
Rosenak, Rosenak, who has seen
limited playing time, recorded 25
saves and shut out South Florida in
the crucial third period.

“The way I was thinking before
the game started was that l have
waited for five or six weeks to
play," Rosenak said. “I was really
ready to play. I really settled down
after the first goal was scored on
me. I couldn't believe it. South
Florida really came on strong. We
were really expecting less.“

UK big men will have their hands full with the ‘Shack’ attack

LSU center won’t intimidate
Wildcats, Mashbum says

By JOHN KELLY
Assistant Sports Editor

Shaquille O'Neal is a junior with
two years of Southeastern Confer-
ence experience under his belt.

He towers at 7-foot-1 and tips the
scales a whopping 294 pounds.

The “Shack" already has been
dubbed as the first pick in the
NBA's lottery draft this spring, pro-
vided he decides to forgo his senior
season at Louisiana State Universi-
ty.

in fact, O’Neal was considered
by some scouts as a prime prospect
at the end of last season. He de-
clined the opportunity, opting in-
stead for another year of tuning up
at the college level before entering
the big show.

The Wildcats (15-4 overall, 5-2
SEC) will be the 16th team to pay
the consequences of O'Neal's deci-
sion as they travel to Baton Rouge,
La., to face LSU (12-4, 5-1) Sunday
afternoon.

Sophomore forward Jamal Mash-
bum isn't scared by O'Neal. He
wasn't last season when he repon-
edly had words on the court with
O'Neal, an aggressive move that
grabbed the LSU star's respect
more than his anger.

“We’re not intimidated by any-
body,“ Mashbum said. “I don't say
too much on the court anyway, but
as a freshman 1 had to, though.”

In any event, O'Neal has been ru-
mored as saying that he has been
looking forward to playing against
Mashbum again. Sunday he’ll get
his chance, although they won't
have to match up one on one.

That monstrous task belongs to
the latest celebrity in the UK camp,
freshman center Andre Riddick,
who said he will use his quickness
to overcome the size disadvantage
he’ll have against O’Neal Sunday.

Riddick will get his third straight
SEC start but his first on the road.
He has faced a player of similar
mass in Arkansas' Oliver Miller.

But Miller's 295 pounds is
crammed into a 6-foot-9 frame.
And he doesn’t employ the type of
dominating force on the court that
O’Neal does.

In addition to O'Neal. LSU coach
Dale Brown has an arsenal of weap-
ons at his disposal, including three
senior starters in Vernel Singleton.
Harold Boudreaux and TJ. Pugh.

LSU currently is second only to
Arkansas in the SEC West and is
considered among the top four
teams in the league along with Ala-
bama, Arkansas and UK.

Mississippi coach Ed Murphy
just completed a four-game SEC
losing streak to — guess which four
SEC teams.

When asked to rank the teams
following UM's 96-78 loss to UK
Wednesday, Murphy was blunt in
his assessment.

“Arkansas without question (is
the bean.” Murphy said. “If you
didn't know that the other night,
then you weren’t watching the
game. They are special. All four
teams have very good talent. but
Arkansas has all that and the eight
seniors. That's the difference.

“I just have to go with the with
the other three.”

On that note. UK heads to Baton
Rouge where LSU lies in wait with
that ever-powerful SEC home-coun
advantage.

Notes

-Following Wednesday's game,
UK coach Rick Pitino said the
Wildcats were very near reaching
their primary goal of the season.

“We are three or four wins from
getting securing an NCAA bid,
which is our No. 1 goal," Pitino
said. “And then we want to win that
Eastern Division and get that bye
(in the first round of the SEC Tour-
nament), which is another goal of
ours."

oSenior John Pelphrey was baf-
fled when the results of The Asso-
ciated Press' poll were released ear-
lier this week. UK dropped from
eight to 14 after losing two SEC
games to unranked Tennessee and
No.9 Arkansas.

“I thought we‘d at least go to 20
or out (of the Top 25). That’s going
by the time we lost at Georgia Tech
by one point, and we won a game
on the road. And we dropped a
bunch. But those things aren't im-
portant, anyway."

Senior point guard Sean Woods looks past Mississippi‘s Kelvin
Scales for an open man in Wednesday's 96-78 UK win. In his last
two games, Woods has tallied a 17 to 2 assist to turnover ratio.

On Riddick's 10 one-handed

he was definitely trying to go to the

On the selection of senior point

they’d give it to Andre because he

Breaking through

Pixies UK concert may be one of group’s last in smaller venues

By STEVE DANIELS
Contributing Critic

When the Pixies play Sunday
night at the Student Center's Grand
Ballroom, the band could possibly
be playing one of the last regular
small venues of its career.

After playing together for six
years, in which the group has re-
leased four full-length albums and a
number of extended-play record-
ings, the Pixies have just been con-
firmed as the opening act for the up-
coming American tour by U2.

“I personally prefer to play small-
er places because it's places we just
don't go to a lot," said David Lover-
ing. the Pixies’ drummer. “It's nicer
to go to these smaller places and I
think we‘re received better. Also,
we like to play it safe."

Despite their long touring sched-
ule, Lovering says the Pixies are a
band which has tried hard to keep
their live shows as spontaneous as
possible.

Levering said the band sounds
best when it performs live, adding
that fans can anticipate a great light
show.

The Pixies' latest release, Trompe
le Monde is locked on the altema-
tive music charts and their video for
their first single, “Head On" (a cov-
er of the Jesus and Mary Chain
tune). is becoming a staple on
MTV.

Trompe le Monde is a master-
piece of Pixies work combining the
studio craftsmanship of their last LP
Bossan0va with the harder edges of
previous works such as Doolittle
and Surfer Rosa.

“Trompe le Monde is the hardest
LP so far,” Lovering said. “It's
more guitar heavy. Doolittle was

This is not a test: the Kentucky
Kernel weather bureau has issued
a tornado warningfor UK's Memo-
rial Hall tomorrow night at 8 pm.

Bebe Miller and Company will
spin, sweep and roar through UK in
a choreographed storm of raw ener-
gy. electricity and motion. Spon-
sored by the Student Activities
Board Performing Arts Collective,
shelter can be sought in the eye of
the storm for $5 for students and $8
for the general public.

Miller‘s postmodem dance en-
semble is the critically-acclaimed
leading edge of the Next Wave
high-pressure dance front. The
dance company has hit more than
60 cities in 25 states and eight
countries during the past few years.

In 1991, the Village Voice called
Miller's dancing "so full of human
frailty, so hot and messy . On a
deep level we know what they‘re
trying to do, and we watch as if this
were. for the moment, the world's
most gripping story."

 

 

“I personally prefer to play smaller places
because it's places we just don't go to a lot.

think we're received better. Also, we like to play

Pixies’ drummer

the best song record. at least it was
my favorite. And Bossanova was
the best sounding production~wise
and maybe a little softer. Trompe Ie
Monde is definitely a lot more
rougher with a lot more angst in
it."

A curious track on the record is
the single “Head On," which Lov-
en'ng said happened purely on acci-
dent.

“We were just fans of the song
and it primed us really well in re-
hearsal. We were just jamming on
it and it started sounding good and
we just did of a rendition of it. The
Jesus and Mary Chain seem to like
it."

The video for “Head On” is in-
teresting in itself. Consisting of
odd shots of band members' heads,
torsos, and feel, it continues in
what seems the Pixies' objectives
for video. While trying to be origi-
nal, the group tries to never over-
shadow the music.

“We don’t want to make the typi-
cal MTV video," Lovering said.
“It's the music that matters more
titan the actual video. We’re just
trying to do something different."

With the continual exposure on
MTV. and the constant praise from
critics the band has begun to reach

a new plateau. The recognition on
the street also is a new experience
for the band, Lovering said.

“We never had our pictures any-
where for the first three years but I
guess with videos its becoming
more apparent now. I’m pretty safe
though, because I can hide behind
the cymbals."
