double the nearest
competitor.

During the first year of
production, the
company baked a
record 5 billion
golden Ritz crackers
- enough for about
40 crackers for
every single
American in I935.

Before long this classy
cracker became a
staple in an
incredible number of
households not
restricted to
American shores.
Young European men
often carried a box
of Ritz crackers
instead of the typical
chocolates, to
present to the young
women they courted.
Imagine if on a first
date you gave your
sweetie a box of
Ritz.

With all its popularity,
this most luxurious
of crackers was still
very affordable.
During the
Depression, a mere
19 cents bought this
special treat, which
was served on the
famous ocean liner,
the "Queen Mary,"
and is still a regular
in the Waldorf-
Astoria Hotel.

Chocolate history

Got cookies?

Charles I of Spain, who
introduced chocolate
to his court and to
Europe with a
wonderful nuance —
sugar sweetening.
The sweet chocolate
drink became the
rage of the crowned
heads, as well as the
wealthy families of
Europe. But it wasn't
until 300 years later
that chocolate
confections arrived
on the scene. In
I847. confectioners
Fry 8 Sons combined
chocolate liquor with
extra cocoa butter
and sugar to make
the first chocolate
candy. As candy-
making technology
improved and the
skills of chocolatiers
became more
refined, chocolate
became the passion
of Europe and then
of the New World.
People in virtually
every corner of the
world not only
cultivated a taste for
chocolate, but also
made it the most
popular flavor to be
found.

In 1937 the first
chocolate cookie was
made in a small
kitchen.

Today, more than 4.75
billion roll out of
Nabisco, lnc.'s
facilities every year.

Donovan problems addressed

Not unheard. Student complaints, crew
lookover has Maintenance on the case

By ltarla Dooley and
Richard Cook

ASSISTANT NEWS EDITORS

Donovan Hall residents
who say their dorm is in
dire need of repairs may
soon have their wishes
granted.

“The things in (Mon-
day's Kentucky Kernel) are
obvious problems, and we're
in agreement." said Lyle
Morgan, associate director of
Maintenance.

Morgan said he sent

three maintenance supervi-
sors to the residence hall
yesterday morning and met
with them that afternoon to
discuss the dorms condi-
tion. Morgan took the re-
port to the temporary direc-
tor of Maintenance. Frank
Harris. They went to Dono-
van to walk through and as-
sess the maintenance
needs.

“We viewed all the bath-
rooms in Donovan.“ Morgan
said. adding that his office is
developing a plan to fix the

dorm 5 problems

A two- man crew will be
sent to repair the washing
machines this morning.
The crew will tear down
the washers and dryers he
said.

“We scheduled this last
week.“ Morgan said.

“After doing work (in
the laundry rooms) on Fri
day. we realized we needed
to do more."

Donovan residents said
they sent a petition to the Of-
fice of Residence Life last
week. after getting no results
from complaints to Mainte-
nance. resident assistants
and the hall director.

"The stuff

said Tanya Stith. a of Dono-

her previous complaints
had seemed to fall on deaf
ears,

“As for students having
to call Maintenance about
holes in the ceiling, that
doesn‘t even seem like the
way it should work to me."
she said.

Morgan said he hopes
to get the planning done to-
day and have crews in
Donovan to repair the bath-
rooms within the next few
days.

Small crowd: Not many
line up to pick up tickets
for opening round games

By Richard Cook
ASSISTANT NEVIS EDITOR

“Everybody wins“ could be the
motto for the UK Athletics Associa-
tion‘s ticket lottery to the first round of
the NCAA Tournament.

Last night 30 students bought
tickets for the first round games be-
ing held this weekend in New 0r-
leans.

“I went to every tournament game
last year,“ said Steve Pulliam. a natur-
al resource conservation senior. “It‘s
fun (to go to the games)."

The lottery gave students the
chance to reserve a place in the Super
Dome‘s student section, which is part
of the temporary bleachers set up for
the tournament.

“Actually. section 1155 seats are
some of the best," said Rodney
Stiles. with the athletics depart.
ment.

A map of the Super Dome passed
out at the lottery showed the tempo-
rary seats are much closer to the court
than the permanent seats.

 

The structure of the lottery allows
students to buy a ticket for the first
game and earn the option to go to the
second. if UK wins Friday against New
Mexico State.

If the Wildcats loose the first-
round game. any student who paid the
$60 for the ticket book can return the
voucher to the ticket office at Memori-
al Coliseum next week and get a $30 re-
fund. Stiles said.

Students received a voucher last
night, which they will use to pick up
the actual game ticket an hour be-
fore Friday's game and again on Sun-
day.

Game time on Friday is 6:40 pm.
Sunday‘s tip-off is scheduled for 3:55
pm. CST. and the ticket window will
open at 12:30 pm. CST.

Stiles said he was not surprised
with the low turnout for last night's
lottery.

“Most students have been saving
for Spring Break.“ Stiles said.

Susan Renaker. staff assistant in
athletics. said only 28 students showed
up for the opening-round lottery last
year.

Normally the athletics depart-
ment does not allow the transfer of
tickets. Stiles said. But because they
had not made this clear before start-
ing the lottery. they decided to let it
pass.

Music education senior Brian Lewellen paid
for his ticket voucher last night.

This policy had been in effect since
the mid-19805 when the lottery-style
sale of tournament tickets first began.
he said.

“I think it‘s a good idea." Pulliam
said. "Otherwise. people who graduat-
ed four years ago could get (student)
tickets."

If the Cats move on to the third
and fourth rounds in St. Louis. the
ticket lottery for those games will be at
10 am. on Tuesday. March 16.

 

Capital
campaign
moves on

Seeing the results: ‘PeopIe-driven'
campaign continues to raise money

By Mark Vanderhoff
WW‘M‘H‘"

Fund-raisers have been working in the "quiet
phase" since November to gauge the generosity of
donors to UK‘s latest capital campaign project.

The outlook is so good. administrators said.
they‘re increasing the work force to accommodate
incoming donations.

“We want to find out how much major gift sup-
port is out there." said Terry Mobley. chief devel-
opment officer for the Development Central Office.
“So far. the reception from the private sector has
been tremendous.“

If the project continues to go as well as it has.
Mobley expects UK will make doubling the amount
of current fund raising per year the official goal for
the campaign ,, and that could mean $400 million
in five years.

That kind of money from the private sector
could mean more money from the public sector in
the form of matching state funds. said Joe Burch.
vice president for University Relations.

“We have every reason to believe if this cam-
paign is successful. and it will be. the governor
and legislature will appropriate additional funds."
Burch said.

Burch said UK is beefing up its fund-raising
staffto reach out to donors.

“We have created a large volunteer structure."
he said. “We have a multitude of people working
for us within the college. Med Center. within the
state. outside the state."

Current efforts include hiring and training
more paid staff members and increasing its volun-
teer base. and encompass everyone on campus. in-
cluding faculty members.

Faculty play an important role in fund-raising
because they help to identify and serve as liaisons
for potential donors. he said.

Many alumni are interested in donating in a
professor‘s name or to the program they graduated
from. he said.

Burch said people work all over the l'nited
States contact alumni.

Those who have left UK may he a significant
part of the capital off the campus. but Mobley said
the reason for the campaign is who's on campus.

Big Blue's latest capital campaign project
means big green for the University. but the prima-
ry recipients of this fund-raising aren‘t made of
bricks.

“This is our first-ever comprehensive l'niver-
sitywide capital campaign project." Mobley
said.“lt's very people-driven."

While past campaign projects have focused on
singular recipients such as the library specific col-
lege buildings and athletic facilities. this campaign
focuses on endowed chairs. professorships and re-
cruiting outstanding students. he said.

Buildings and facilities will receive some mon-
ey. Mobley said.

“Students go to where there are more out-
standing faculty." he said. “We could recruit near-
ly all the brightest students. btit if we don't have
the faculty to teach them. our reputation won't last
long."

Burch said those benefits to researchers. facul-
ty and staff will move UK toward becoming a top-
20 public research institution.

Clinton visits Central America

MANAGUA. Nicaragua —— President Clinton
has begun a tour of the Central American sites
devastated by Hurricane Mitch, offering U.S.
help with reconstruction. Voicing U.S. concern
that despair not turn into political trouble for the
newly stable region, Clinton said he wanted per-
sonally to reaffirm America’s support for its
neighbors' plight. Next stop on his four-day, four
nation tour is El Salvador.

Bush is wary on abortion issue

AUSTIN, Texas — George W. Bush, stepping
gingerly into the Republican Party’s most frac-
tious debate, said yesterday he would back a con-
stitutional amendment to outlaw most abortions
if more voters supported it. But he said, “Ameri-
ca is not ready to ban abortions." However, the
Texas governor and likely candidate for the GOP
presidential nomination told The Associated
Press he was a “pro-life person."

Colombia probes American deaths

SAN VICENTE DEL CAGUAN, Colombia —
Colombia’s top rebel group will investigate
whether its guerrillas killed three Americans
last week and will punish anyone found responsi-

Raul Reyes, a member of the seven-man ruling
junta of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of
Colombia, said that up to now he saw no signs of
any rebel role.

The three Americans were kidnapped Feb. 25
while on a mission to help an Indian group, the
U’wa, organize schools on its reservation on the
Colombian side.

NcDougal defiant on trial

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Whitewater figure
Susan McDougal went back to court yesterday to
face charges of contempt and obstruction of jus-

trial for refusing to answer Independent Counsel
Ken Starr’s questions about President and
Hillary Clinton. McDougal insists she has no in-
formation on their dealings in the failed

Sweepstakes hearing to be held

WASHINGTON - A Senate subcommittee is

Disabled people
have concerns
brought up front

IylichardCeek
m

The death of sociology se
nior Stanley McGowan last
week has brought the rights of
disabled students to the fore-
front of policy discussion at
UK.

“(McGowan’s death) is
one of the reasons I wrote the
grant for this project,” said
Norb Ryan, disability pro
gram administrator at the
University’s Human Develop-
ment Institute.

Ryan created the Ken-
tucky Americans with Disabil-
ities Initiative when he
learned that nearly 70 percent
of Kentuckians with disabili-
ties do not know about the law
or even how it affects their
lives.

“Most people with disabil-
ities don't know their rights
under the (Americans with
Disabilities Act),” Ryan said.
“People need to realize what
their rights are."

The workshops created
under the initiative, held for
any organization that requests
one, are designed to educate
not only the disabled in Ken-
tucky, but their parents,
teachers and employers.

“I focused the workshop
on the implications of the
ADA for those in higher edu—
cation,” Ryan said.

Ryan ran a workshop on
Friday at Georgetown College
to educate educators about
their obligations under the
ADA. About 100 educators
from Kentucky universities
and high schools were pre-
sent.

“Disabled students are the
fastest growing minority at
UK," Ryan said.

Ryan plans to host addi-
tional workshops for high
schools. He said educating
high school students is espe~
cially important. As students
graduate, he said, they need to
understand their employment
rights, and rights concerning
accommodations at the post-
secondary level.

They “need to be aware of
their rights when they enter
universities,” Ryan said. “Stu-
dents with disabilities have a
better future if they are in-
formed of their rights."

The ADA was enacted in
1990 to target workplace and
educational discrimination
against Americans with dis-
abilities. It protects the civil
rights of individuals with dis-
abilities, similar to those pro
tections given to individuals
on the basis of race, religion,
gender and age.

The US. Supreme Court
decided on March 3 that it was
appropriate for schools to pro-
vide nursing services for dis-
abled students, Ryan said.

“Most people think of
those in wheelchairs or the
blind, but you can include peo
ple with Attention Deficit Dis-
order, epilepsy and psycholog-
ical disabilities." said Jake
Karnes, director of the Dis-
ability Resource Center.

With more than 600 dis-
abled students attending the
University, the Supreme
Court decision may affect how
the UK deals with the safety
concerns of disabled students
in the wake of McGowan’s
death, Kames said.

Ryan will host additional
workshops throughout the
year. For more information
about arranging a workshop,
call Ryan at 257-1719.

Softball suffers tough loss

Love lost: The UK softball team was trumped late by the
Akron Zips, dropping the Cats to a disappointing 6-12 record

By Jonathan Dobson
CONTRIBUTING WRITER

It is it is better to have tasted love and
lost. rather than to have never loved at all.
The softball team dealt with that dilemma

over the weekend.

On a deceptively sunny Sunday after-
noon at the Soccer/ Softball Complex. the
Cats (6-12) were dealt a heartbreaking 5-4
loss to the Akron Zips in the finale of the
‘99 Kentucky Invitational Tournament.

The game was at a 33 deadlock in the
bottom of the fifth when sophomore out-
fielder Leslie Kwiatkowski (.339. 10 RBIs)
hit a solo home run off Akron pitcher
Sherrell Watson. giving UK a one-run

lead.

The Cats led until the Zips' seventh
when. with one out, Akron catcher Julie
Villiard doubled. Kerstin Sewell

walked, and the runners advanced to sec-

With two outs, Jackie Rothman hit a
sinking liner that UK first baseman Tracie
Potts got a glove on, but was unable to hold.
Two runs scored, and the Wildcats went
into the bottom of the seventh trailing 54.

Consecutive Akron errors put two UK
runners on with no outs. and it seemed the
momentum was about to shift back to the
home team‘s favor. But it was not to be.
The next three batters were retired on

The defeat was made even harder to
swallow because of the solid outing by UK
pitcher Colleen Boddy (1-5). She held Akron

Baseball great

DiMaggio dies

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Joe DiMaggio, the elegant
Yankee Clipper whose 56-game
hitting streak endures as one of
baseball‘s greatest records. died
yesterday at his home in Holly-
wood. Fla. Joltin' Joe has left
and gone away. as the song
said, at age 84.

DiMaggio, who underwent
lung cancer surgery in October

ern California home, with bur-
ial to follow in the San Francis-
co area.

“DiMaggio, the consum-
mate gentleman on and off the
field. fought his illness as hard
as he played the game of base—
ball and with the same dignity.
style and grace with which he
lived his life." said Engelberg.

DiMaggio's next-door neighbor.

During his 99 days in the
hospital, DiMaggio suffered sev-
eral setbacks from lung infec-
tions and even fell into a coma
briefly, but he astounded his
doctors by repeatedly bouncing
back. At one point. NBC report-
ed in error that he had died.

When DiMaggio left the hos-
pital Jan. 19, he was invited by
Yankees owner George Stein-
brenner to throw out the cere-
monial first ball at the Yankees‘
home opener April 9. After
DiMaggio came home from the
hospital, a sign was placed on
his bed saying “April 9 Yankee
Stadium or Bust."

Steinbrenner said yester~
day he visited a weak, but alert
DiMaggio five days ago to re-
mind him of the invitation.

“He just smiled." Stein-
brenner said.

Baseball commissioner Bud
Selig said DiMaggio. said, “I
never saw a player who was as
graceful. The was an aura
about him that was amazing. I
idolized him. He‘ll always be
my all-time favorite." Selig
