By MARK R. (‘HELLGREN
Associated Press

FRANKFORT — Kentucky’s uni-
versity presidents were back before
the General Assembly yesterday to
complain about the budget proposed
by Gov. Wallace Wilkinson and to
emphasize their concerns are real.

“I‘m not hear to whine around at
you," said University of Kentucky
President David Roselle. “I‘m here
to tell you it‘s not going to be busi-
ness as usual.“

Roselle, who repeated later that
he was “not whining." may have
been directing the comments at Wil-
kinson, who said last week that the
presidents should “stop crying so
much" about the budget and spend
the money they will get more wise-
ly.
The presidents paraded before the
Senate Appropriations and Revenue
Committee with a tale of woe simi-
lar to the one they gave a H0use
panel last week that prompted Wil-
kinson‘s comment.

Again. the presidents said that the
lack of any real additional money
for higher education would mean a
loss of talented faculty members,
abandonment of routine mainte-
nance and student financial assis-
tance.

If enacted, the governor‘s budget
“would strike a profoundly damag-
ing blow to higher education." said
University of Louisville President
Donald Swain.

Of particular concern to all the
presidents was the budgets lack of
specific money for a salary increase
for teachers or staff.

Swain noted that a salary increase
of 2 percent is specified in the 1989
fiscal year budget for state employ-
ees and teachers. but not university
personnel.

“They are perceiving now they
are the one group in the entire state
to be picked out, to be punished,"
Swain said.

Swain and Western Kentucky Uni-
versity President Kern Alexander
said the universities have done all
they can to reorder spending to give
faculty raises.

“There isn't any money to pay for
salaries unless we stop doing aca~
demic programs," Swain said.
“What a cruel choice “

Roselle said not keeping salaries
for Kentucky professors up to com-
peting universities makes poor eco-
nomic sense, Many faculty mem-
bers. he said. also have grants and
research programs that bring in ad-
ditional money to the state and uni-
versity.

The research pays salaries of
other people, provides assistance to
graduate students and, in effect. is a
small business. Roselle said.

Sen. Mike Moloney. D‘Lexington,
started the meeting as chairman
with a word of encouragement to
anyone who testified,

Moloney said he had been told that
members of the executive branch
had been told “to cool criticism of
this budget.“

“I personally consider that an af—
front to this General Assembly,“
Moloney said.

Administration budget officials
said they were unaware of any di-
rective to tone down criticism of the
budget if there is any.

Universities’ effect
on state economy
key to more funding

By JAY BLANTON
Executive Editor

FRANKFORT — State university
presidents have found themselves in
the difficult position of trying to con-
vince state legislators with short-
term goals that they should increase
funding to higher education, which
seems to pay longterm dividends.

Specifically, the universities of
this state — if they hope to get any
increases in funding — are going to
have to convince an election-minded
legislature that higher education
benefits this state economically, not
only in the future. but right now.

State legislators are concerned

Former Wildcat shares

championship memories

By JULIE ESSELMAN
Staff Writer

Rev. Ed Beck, captain of the 1958
UK NCAA Championship basketball
team, and five of his former team-
mates gathered last night to share
memories of their years under
coaches Adolph Rupp and Harry
Lancaster.

Beck gave a talk titled “The Gos-
pel According to St. Adolph and St.
Harry" at the Singletary Center for
the Arts as part of the Newman Cen-
ter‘s Distinguished Speakers Pro-
gram.

“We‘re here to celebrate and
share with you the memories we
have and our love,“ said Beck, who
is now the senior pastor of Sunrise
United Methodist Church in Colora-
doSprings. Colo.

Joining Beck on the stage were
Adrian Smith. dubbed “Odie” by his
teammates, Phil Johnson, Johnny
Cox, Don Mills and Vernon Hatton.
Former Kentucky Gov. A.B.
“"Happy Chandler and Adolph Rupp
Jr.werealsoonhend.

"What a close bunch of guys we
had," Beck said. "We had a great
team."

Beck described the word “gospel"
as repruenttng a strlrg of stories.

and “tonight we‘ll string stories to-
gether to share insights,“ he said.

Beck spoke of the time he was
being recruited for basketball by va-
rious universities, including UK.
One morning he saw his high school
coach standing with someone unfa-
miliar to him.

”Son. do you know who i am?“
the man said.

When Beck shook his head, the
man said. “Once i tell you my
name, you’ll never forget it. My
name‘s Adolph Rupp.“

“And 1 never forgot it."
said.

Beck also said the importance of
gospels is their message. The gos-
pels of coaches Rupp and Lancaster
stressed commitment, practice, giv-
ing their all and paying the price.

He described gospels as means of
imtruction, something at which his
coaches were experts.

“They had unbelievable gifts and
graces," he said. “The greatest
human psychologist i knew was
Adolph Rupp, and . . . Harry
Lancaster wasn‘t far behind. ”

He recalled how Rupp and Len-
caster would stand at opposite ends
of the basketball court during prac-
tice, and he and his teammates “al-
ways heard scathing comments

Beck

Now ideally there is nothing
wrong with this practice. After all.
representatives are elected to rep-
resent their constituencies and their
concerns. But in practice this form
of representation forces legislators
to endorse short-term. quick-fix
measures that will please the voters
back home and continue to put the
representative back in office.

UK President David Roselle said
that to get anything done you have
to convince the General Assembly
that voters care about it — through
letters or direct contact.

ED BECK
about your heritage and physical ac-
tions over and over again."

But he also said ”there was a sen
sitivity, and that‘s what we remem-
beraftersoyears.“

Beck said Rupp and Lancaster
were ”gospel-like" in their effective
communication with their team and
the great memories they invoked.

“i remember the nostalgia of blue
and white,“ he said. “i remember
one night in Imisville. Ky., when
we were playing in a national
championship, and Adolph Rupp
said. ‘We're going all the way
toinght, nomatter what.‘ "

“And we won. t cherish the mem-
ory of Adolph Rupp. the greatest

mentorthegameheseverknown.“

State universities. however. oper»
ate from a much different perspec-
tive,

The primary concern of a state
university is faculty and their re
search. Although research in several
instances reaps economic benefits
almost immediately, most of it is
longterm in focus.

It is hard to convince a legislator.
however. to raise the taxes of cone
stituents who are already struggling
to make ends meet for their fami—
lies.

As one legislator put it at a senate

subcommittee meeting yesterday.
you "cant get that to L’lt over too
well.“

To be fair to legislators. (lov.
Wallace Wilkinson has compounded
the problem. trying to blackmail
legislators by reportedly threatening
to back or oppose legislators in the
their upcoming reelection attempts.

Furthermore. Wilkinson has prom-
ised the people out in the state .
where he is immensely popular —
that he can deliver economic reform
and development without raising
taxes

Officials
fear scam
in dorms

By THOMAS J. Sl’|.l.l\' v\.\'
News Editor

Residence Life officials say the).
are on the lookout for two periodical
peddlers.

Two college-age females have
been soliciting student dorm rooms
peddling magazine subscriptions
claiming to represent a periodical
company. said Bob f‘lay’. acting di
rector of Residence Life And the
University has reason to believe that
the students who buy these subscrip-
tions are. being swindled. he said,

The students who have been solice
ited could not l‘t‘mell‘lbt’l‘ the name
of the periodical company. l'K offi-
cials said.

All residence hall employees have
been made aware of the situation
and advised to escort the sales
people out of the buidling if they are
spotted and call the police. Clay
said.

“They were extremely rude and
extremely pushy.” said Ned Benson.
Keeneland hall director

“Apparently what these saleswo~
meni do is they represent that they
are in a contest and that they are
getting points to sell magazmes.”
Benson said.

Once they convince a student to
buy a subscription. they require im-
mediate payment in the form of (‘l‘
ther cash or a check made out to
one of the tw o women. not the com:
pany. (‘lay said.

(‘lay says that these saleswomen
legitimate or not. are in violation of
University policy.

“it could be magazine salesmen.

some of them may be legitimate.
But anybody soliciting in our halls is
domg so against l'niversity pt)ilC_\
Clay said.

A company can request to solicit
students in the lobby area of the
dorms , not in the living areas.
Clay said. The University must ap-
prove the company before they can
solicit in the lobby areas.

This company has not requested
permission. (‘lay said

New Harrison—Walnut street
named for rights activist King

By JAYE BEELER
Staff Writer

The Lexington alumni chapter of
Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity began
more than a year ago the project of
renaming a Lexington street after
Martin Luther King Jr. Last night
that dream became a reality.

Lexington‘s Urban County Councn
gave formal approval to rename
Harrison Avenue and Walnut Street
as Martin Luther King Boulevard.

”The renaming of Harrison Ave-
nue and Walnut Street to Martin
Luther King Boulevard is an appro
priate contribution and a visible re~
minder to people of the things Dr.
King accomplished during his life."
said Lee Jackson, spokesman for the
fraternity.

“The Urban County Council voted
the same as Tuesday. No one
changed their minds. The vote was
NH. because one member was ab
sent,“ said Debra Hensley, a council
member representing the 3rd dis-
trict, which includes UK.

“Last night. we made it law,"
Hensley said.

The Urban County Council serv-
ices committee held an official pub

lic hearing Monday. and at that time
it recommended passage of the pro-
posal,

On Tuesday. the full council voted
10-5 for the proposal.

Other pOSSlbif‘ streets suggested
were Georgetown Street and Rose
Street.

“There was opposition to George-
town Street because some people
wanted a more prominent street
that was more visible and not an iso-
lated street in the black part of the
county and city." Hensley said.

”Then Rose Steet extension came
up." Hensley said. "There was oppo»
sition to that street because some
people did not want to name just
half a street ~ — they wanted to name
the whole street because Martin Lu-
ther King Jr. was not halfa man."

Harrison Avenue and Walnut
Street will be realigned by construc-
tion that will be completed in 1990.
State and local funds are financing
the improvement.

Hemley said the location was
ideal because the new Martin Luther
King Boulevard goes through the
heart of downtown. connects with
UK and is generally a well-traveled
street.

The new street signs will be put up
starting today They should be up
before the arrival of (‘oretta Scott
King tKing's widowt on Tuesday.
Hensley said it‘s an appropiate
honor for her arrival and for the
community.

The passage was not without some
controversy. Jackson said.

“i was very surprised at the oppo-
sition of some of the council mem-
bers," he said. “They listened to
their constituents and disregarded
King, the man. They should have
voted with their conscience."

Jackson said it soon developed
into a racial issue. “It is unfortunate
and unbelieveable A this shows the
underlining racism in this commu-
nity and maybe this community
needs to discuss the race relations. ”

"This whole experience should
bring this community closer and
make Lexington a better place to
live." Jackson said.

William Parker, UK vice chan-
cellor of minority affairs. said “I
think changing Harrison Avenue and
Walnut Street to Dr. Martin Luther
King Boulevard Jr. is wonderful. 1
don‘t understand why it took so
long.“

Approach to Buddhism topic
of weekend seminar, lecture

By MICHAEL TUCKER
Contributing Writer

The Shambhala Training Center,
directed by retired English profes-
sor Bill Gordon, will hold a Level
One training seminar this weekend
beginning with a lecture at 8 p.m.
tonight.

Shambhala training, a secular ap-
proach to teaching Buddhism, pro—
grosses through five levels of aware-
rim. Established by a Buddhist
teacher some 2,500 to 3,000 years
ago in Tibet, it is based on the idea
that a person can become not only
sane and gentle. but strong and ca-
pable.

“Shambhala trains how to see
things as they are and how to act
properly," Gordon said. “The conse-
quence of Shambhala training is
that people become less selfish and
willing to help others.“

The Shambhala Training Center
also will conduct seminars Saturday
and Sunday at 9 am. consisting of
talks by Gordon. personal inter‘
views, group discussions and the
practice of sitting meditation.

As the training progresses through
the levels. each one provides a foun-
dation of practice and experience

for the next. Between levels there
are periods to continue to practice,
study and assimilate the experi-
ences, so that participants may
complete the entire training.

According to Strambhala tradition,
it is possible to transform one's life
into what is known as the way of the
Warrior. This path gradually leads
to complete accomplishment as a
human being.

“Lexington isn't the largest city,
but it has one of the best Shambhala
training centers in the country,"
said Lance Brunner, a music theory
professor.

Brunner attributes the quality of
the training center to Gordon‘s tea-
chings. “He is a fascinating and ex—
cellent teacher. ”

Gordon has trained in Chicago.
Washington DC. and Colorado,

“There is a natural desire, not to
just get people to agree with you.
but give them what you have."
Gordon said.

The effects of the training differ
for everyone. And Gordon said that
it is important to train at an individ-
ual level. “We aren‘t trying to put
out clones, we are putting out real

people."

About his own training. Brunner
said, “Training gives me the oppor-
tunity to turn knowledge into wis
dom. It allows me to see how my
mind works and hence to tree me
from the tyranny of my thoughts.
Ultimately it's about freedom. "

The seminar this weekend deals
with establishing the ground for the
whole Shambhala path and it will
emphasize the teachings of meditae
tion.

Gordon said he wants to teach
people why and how they should
meditate, as well as instructing
them how to relate to the teachings.
the teacher, and to see the value of
mediatation for themselves in their
lives.

The lecture tonight is free and
open to the public and will provide
basic information on why there is a
need for Shambhala Training.

However, The cost of the weekend
seminar is $60 for adults and $45 for
students and senior citizens. The lec-
ture and seminar will take place at
the Shambhala Training (‘enter at
257 Lexington Ave.

Carole Ludwick, executive di-

agreed "The tactics of this com-
pany don‘t sound good," she said.
“If they haven‘t got something to
hide, why aren‘t they going
through the proper channels?"

“We don't know yet whether
these students are going to re-
ceive these magazines, it‘s too
early to tell.“ Ludwick said. But
this type of situation "is one of
the biggest areas where we have
inquiries and complaints (of ri-
poffst.”

“It's a very common per-
suasiw sales technique," Lud-
wick said.

Several students ordered some
magazines and gave full pay-

didn‘t

OOfficials fear salesgirls are fakes

Benson said that Steve Thomp-
son, a Keerieland Hall Resident
Advisor, was approached by the
women under the guise of stu-
dents wishing to be rated on their
sales pitch. (They didn‘t say that
they were selling anything. )

After Thompson rated them on
their performance, they asked
him if he would like to purchase
a subscription. When Thompson
declined, “they were outraged,"
Benson said. “He had to escort
them outofthebuilding."

Thompson could not be reached
for comment.

The only way for students to be
sure that they don't get swindled
is for students to protect them-
selves, Ludwick said.

First of all, “at no time should
students ever make checks paya~
ble to an individual in a business
transaction,” she said. “They
should never . . . pay cash, unless

it is an over-the-counter tram-
action.”

If approached by these sales
people, Ludwick reconunends
that students “get as much infor~
mation as possible about these
people and try to send someone
to call the police."

Or, if the student turns out to
have been swindled, they should
report the case to the Better
Business Bureau, Ludwick said.
“We log all (complaints and in-
formation), and if it is significant
enough, we can call the police
and (give them the informa-
tion).”

All UK students are members
of the Better Business Bureau
and are entitled to the use of spe—
cial member phone lines, Lud-
wick said. All reports or com-
plaints can be called into the
BBB at 268-4088.

ikc Mark ’INvain rambling

down the Mississippi River

through the guise of Huck
Finn. Kentucky writer Gurney
Norman is adopting the Kentucky
River as a metaphor for rough
waters that need to be navigated if
Kentucky is to resolve some of its
more pressing social and political
issues.

Narrated and presented by
Norman. "Ti me ()n The River" is
an hourlong television special
featuring the Kentucky River and
the people surrounding it. The show
will be broadcast at 8 Sunday night
on the Kentucky Educational
Television network (Channel 46).

Norman. well-known to his
Kentucky readership as the author
of Kmfolhs and Divine Rights Trip.
sees the program as a possible
stepping-stone to a greater
understanding that needs to be
established between the academic
community and the laypeuple (if the
state.

“This humblc TV Show that we
put together in 1987 is a modest
example of possibilities of
establishing not only a line of
communication. but a tone of voice.
in which Kentuckians of all social
stratas can tiilk it) each other about
the common problem," Norman said
yesterday. “it ‘s an interesting
coincidciicc to me that the Show is
being aired at the very moment that
lherc is a perccivcd alicnlation
betwccn tax-paying citizens and the
l'niverstty.” Norman said.

Norman. 11 Siieycairold native 01'
Hazard. Ky. situated on the
Kentucky ltivci‘ 1. and a professor at
l'K. finds himself cmpathizing with
both sides of the raging debate over
funding tor higher education

intellectual attitude in Kentucky.”

Then head to the [K Jazz Ensem-

Vincc DiMurtinti. director of the

will consist Oi jazz arrangements of
love songs. "It will be ballads and

The 22 musicians of the Jazz En~
semblc will pcrt‘orm such songs as
the ‘405 favorite ”Like Someone to

But the music isn‘t the only treat
of the afternoon.

he said. "And I think that while
university people must petition and
lobby and politic in every possible
way to get a fair deal. universities
need to find a way to be visible and
neighborly and intimate with
average folks of the state. it ‘s from
those families that the studcnts
come and the tax money comes."

taken from at Thomas Wolt'c novel.

It was this w riting that captured
thc attention of John Morgan. the
director and producer of “Time ()n

John Morgan's ctmccpt." said
Norman. "But [got more deeply
involved than i cvci‘ had planned
because it came so naturally. It was

be invited to address the
commonwealth about something he
