Lottery ticket sales flourish after first week

University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky Independent since 1971 Monday, April 10, 1989

 

Associated Press

LOUISVILLE. Ky. ~~ Kentuckians are
spending $3,138 a minute on the nearly
weekold lottery, and lottery officials say
they can‘t predict when sales will decline.

“it‘s a little bit like going out to play golf
and birdying the first three or four holes,"
said Frank 0. Keener, president of the
Kentucky Lottery _Corp. “After a while,
you start thinking about the course record
when you ought to be thinking about your
next tee shot."

Between 7 am. EDT Tuesday, when
sales began officially, and 7 pm. Satur-
day, lottery officials said they had sold
more than $20 million worth of tickets

Keener predicted first»week sales would
top $25 million and he was eyeing the per-
capita wager record —— the amount of
money bet divided by population.

Florida. which began lottery sales in
January 1988, apparently holds the record
for first-week sales, with an estimated $95
million.

Depending on the population figure used
for Florida v some industry publications
say about 12 million. but Keener says it

should be 13.5 million — that state’s per
capita wager was either $7.90 or $7.04.

To beat the $7.04 mark, the Kentucky lot-
tery's sales will have to exceed $26.5 mil-
lion. To beat $7.90, they will have to be
about $30 million.

Retailers in Louisville said yesterday
that sales were brisk. although they had
dropped since Tuesday.

“It's been really wild. It really has,"
said Beverly Allen, assistant manager at a
Gulf gas station and food market. “Well,
it’s slacked down a little bit as the week
went on,“

Allen said one customer purchased $100
worth of tickets. then spent three hours
scratching them off in the store. She said
he won about $50. left. and returned to buy
more.

Steve Finley. assistant manager of a
Convenient Food Mart. said he has many
repeat customers.

“Alot of them will come in and pick
some of them up in the morning. they‘ll
come back at lunch and then they‘ll come
back at quitting time. We see alot of them
three or four times a day." Finley said.

Experience from other states shows that

lottery sales usually slow after the first
week, said Larry Sipes, executive vice
president of the Kentucky Lottery ("orp

And the first day is usually the highest-
selling day of the first week In Kentucky,
Friday‘s sales of $4.81 million were still
nearly 94 percent of the first day‘s $5.13
million tally.

As of Friday morning the latest fig:
ures available W tickets were selling fast-
est in the 13county region surrounding the
Louisville offices. Residents of the region
had bought $4.1 million worth iif tickets.
The region's 995,200 people bet $4.12 on av»
erage.

lf Kentuckians buy 325 million worth of
tickets by Tuesday morning. the state will
have devoted nearly 3 4 percent of its in-
come to the lottery.

Before the lottery, that
somewhere else.

Keener said the lottery is competing for
"entertainment dollars, "

in other words. he said. Kentuckians
who had been spending up to $20 million
every 4';- days on other forms of entertain-
ment are now spending that money on the
lottery

WASHINGTON W With cries of
“choice" and symbolic coat hangers
hung from their clothing, tens of thou-
sands of abortion rights activists
marched yesterday on the nation‘s Ca-
pitol hoping to avert a return to the
days of back alley abortions.

“We‘re scared," said Ellen Davidson.
a Yale Universny junior from Hewlett.
NY. Scared. she said. because "we’re
coming to the realization that the thing
we‘ve taken for granted can be taken
away.”

The Supreme (‘ourt Will hear argu-
ments April 26 in a Missouri case that
pro-choice and anti-abortion forces
agree could significantly alter the 1972i
Roe v. Wade decision that gave women
the right toan abortion.

“l‘m thrilled to have my baby.“ said
Kristin McNamara of College Park.
Md. as she wheeled 4~W€9k~0|d Kathryn
m a stroller during the march from the
Washington. Monument to the Capitol.
“But I think a woman must have a
choice to decide whether and when to
have a child. She has to have, that right
to.”

“The message is: Don‘t let this right
go." actress Whoopie Goldberg told ce~
lebrities and members of Congress on
Capitol Hill as the marchers gathered
in a brisk wmd in intermittent sunshine.

The women's rights advocates e- men
and women, Democrats and Republi-
cans. dozens of members of Congress
and a host of celebrities -~ assembled
on the Mall at the Monument for the
march to the Capitol.

Marchers traded taunts With about

 

Protestors try influencing Supreme Court
before it bears controversial Missouri case

200 to 300 anti—abortion protesters who
stood along Constitution Avenue. Police.
some on horseback. kept the oppostng
forces apart .

US. Park Police estimated the early
crowd at 65.000. but said 20.000 other
pro-abortion demonstrators were on
route from nearby Robert F Kennedy
Stadium. Some 90.000 people gathered
for a March 1986 pro«aliortion rally in
Washington.

Many of Sunday's demonstrators
wore white. the color of the sutfragcttes
who fought for womens right to vote,
Some brought their young children.
They carried signs saying. "Moth-
erhood Should Always lie a ('hoicc."
“Roe Roe Roe or Sink." and "Going
Public for Privacy. ”

Wire coat hangers were hung from
the clothing of many marchers. who
carried signs saying, “Never Again.“ it
was a reference to the often deadly self »
abortion technique used by women in
the United States before the procedure
was legalized.

"The majority of Americans do not
want to see the clock turned back. ‘ said
Sen. Alan (franston. D-t ‘alif.

Goldberg said' "Abortion is a neg
ative experience. It's not some
thing you want to go through. but if you
need one. you should have one that's
safe. I don‘t want anyone to end up on
the bathroom floor With a coat hanger."

Actor Leonard Nimoy. wearing a pin
on his white sweatshirt saying "Honor
ary Sister." said: “Nobody likes the
idea of an abortion But if it has to hap-
pen, there should be freedom of
choice."

‘Major League’ strikes out
in the originality box score

By ROB SENG
Arts Editor

1 think that the Cleveland 1n-
dians could surprise some peo-
ple this year. Sure. they‘re in
perhaps the toughest division in
baseball, but the Milwaukee
Brewers are swamped with inju-
ries. the Boston Red Sox may be
hurt by the Wade Boggs scandal
and the loss of Bruce Hurst. and
the New York Yankees have no
pitching.

The Tribe has some solid
starting pitchers and an offense
led by Joe Carter. Cory Snyder
and underrated Pete O'Brien so
Iwouldn‘tbesurprised. . .

Wait a minute. This is a
movie review, not a baseball
predictions column. right? Well.
in that case, pity the poor Cleve-
land Indians. because they're
the main characters in “Major
League," a new baseball come-
dy that has its moments but.
like the Cincinnati Reds of late.
never quite jells together to
form a winning combination.

The main problem with
“Major League" is that it is
shamelessly predictable. both in
its plot and the characters it
presents.

There‘s the catcher who hopes

 

that his knees can hold up for
one more season so that he can
go out on a winner, the prima
donna high-priced athlete. and
the rookie phenom pitcher with
a helluva arm.

The movie this film seems to

aspire to be is “Slapshot,” a
raucous and somewhat vindic-
tive look at professional hockey
and sports ethics that starred
Paul Newman. About as close

s “Major League" gets is that
it stars Newman lookalike Tom
Berenger.

The plot concerns a rich so-
cialite who inherits the Indians.
Like everybody else. she hates
Cleveland and has negotiated a
deal to move the team to Flor-
ida. If the team fails to draw
800.000 fans. she’ll be able to
break the lease.

So she assembles a rag-tag
team of misfits that seem des-
tined to get shelled by even the
Seattle Mariners.

L'nexpectedly. the team devel-

NEW YORK -— John Hiatt’s lat-
est album, Slow Turning. has plen-
ty of good-time rock 'n‘ roll. but lis-
ten carefully and you‘ll hear some
hard times as well.

“Now you're a happily married
man with a wife and kids of your
own. but sometimes in a closet at
night you can hear them rattlin‘
bones." Hiatt warns on “It'll Come
to You." a creepy blues ballad that
contrasts the optimistic mood of
much of the record.

Hiatt, himself a happily married
man with three children, actually
has a lot to feel good about these
days. His past two records have
been commercial and critical sue
cesses, and his songs have been
covered by Bob Dylan. the Everly
Brothers. and Rosanne Cash.

He‘s also a confident live perv
former introducing his songs wrth

ops some character and starts
to win a few games. This is
Cleveland, though. and the fans
still stay away in droves.

When the team learns of its
owner‘s plan. they call a team
meeting and decide they‘ll go
ahead and win it all in order to
defeat her and reclaim their
pride.

It‘s not hard to figure out how
the movie's going to end. but,
despite its predictability. the
film actually starts picking up
steam. But. considering the
movie is using baseball as its
backdrop, the filmmakers seem
to know appallingly little about
thegame.

Every cliche in the hook is
trotted out and attempting to
make the characters colorful

Hiatt is taking success with grain of salt
