Paul Wingate, a 23-year—old polit- ical senior at Nonhem Kentucky University. will serve as liaison be- tween student body presidents and state legislators. Among his duties will be to sit in on state education and appropria- tions committee meetings, organize student rallies and/or meetings with the governor and give updates to the board. He also will be responsible for all lobbying action. Wingate said after he checks leg- islators‘ voting records on higher education issues he will begin placing phone calls and having lunch with legislators to earn or keep their support. One of the main issues he will be lobbying against is further reduc- tions of funding for higher educa— tion. “Students are notorious for not participating in politics and not vot- ing. so politicians feel they can cut (higher education) without any Cola wars hit campus Coke, Pepsi mixing it up across UK By Brian Bennett Senior Staff Writer When students approach campus vending machines for beverages this year, they‘ll find that Coke is it. But when they want soft drinks at Food Services locations. they‘ll dis- cover Pepsi is the only one. baby. Over the summer. UK took bids for both vending and fountain soft drink contracts. UK awarded Pepsi the contract for fountain drinks and Coke for vending. reversing the or- der seen on campus the past four years. The last contracts were awarded in 1989, and the current ones also run for four years. The ISO soft-drink vending ma. chines on campus were changed during the summer. Though it was not a factor in de- ciding the contract. UK avoided any possible problems with the new on- campus KFC franchise by giving the fountain contract to Pepsi. Pep- siCo owns KFC. Food Services Director Robert Braun said even if Coke had won the contract. there would not have been a problem because of the loca— tion of KFC. The chicken restaurant will be in Blazer Hall, which fea- tures self-serve drink dispensers. “What PepsiCo says when you put in a KFC or a Taco Bell (also owned by Pepsi) is that if you have an area outside the restaurant where customers pick their own beverage. then it‘s not a problem." Braun said. “If we had located KFC in an area that serves soft drinks and rings them up on the cash register. we would've had to do some tinkering SPORTS: New UK volleyball coach gearing up for exciting season.

Braun said beverage contracts should not play a major role if the University decides to install more franchise restaurants that have a soft-drink affiliations. “If we really wanted to put some- thing like a Taco Bell in. we would find a different way of serving soft drinks in that one area" he said. “It might affect how we serve beverag- es. but not the bid itself." Braun called the bids “pretty ag- gressive" and said the extra revenue will allow Food Services to keep minimum meal- card deposits low. The bids were lower than in I989, he said. Sea Hero is latest success for member of equine board By Kathy W. Larkin Contributing Writer World—renowned horse trainer MacKenzie “Mack" Miller was in- ducted Monday into the Kentucky Athletic Hall of Fame The 71-year-old sportsman. who is a member of the UK Equine Re- search Foundation's board of direc- tors. trained the I993 Kentucky Derby and Saratoga Travers Stakes winner Sea Hero. Miller said he is excited about his work on the board and looks for- ward to the contributions he can make to the foundation‘s research. But winning the coveted Derby. Miller said. was the “nicest thing to happen“ during his nearly 50 years as a trainer. 'Ihe Versailles. Ky., native began his career in 1947 at Lexington‘s Calumet Farm. He later moved to Louisville and worked with trainer Kinley Cl-veland. Miller's first win came at Church- ill Downs in I950 with a 21- I long shot. Shifty Dora.

Wingate. of Walton-Verona. Ky. said he has run a few state senate races in his area but has had no po- litical experience of this magnitude. He currently serves as vice presi. dent for extemal affairs for NKU student govemment. ”This will be an extension of my College nears end of search for dean By Don Puckett Senior Staff Writer After two years and two search committees. the UK College of Architecture is one step away from finding a new dean. Lexington Campus Chancel- lor Robert Hemenway said he would recommend David Moh- ney. an architect from New York City. for the position. To complete the selection process, UK President Charles Wething- ton must nominate Mohney to the UK Board of Trustees for final approval. The search for a new dean began in October 1991. After about a year. the first search committee nominated a candi- date who subsequently de- clined the position. A second search committee was formed. and in March it narrowed a list of 60 candi- dates to three. Those three cans didates visited UK and con- ducted formal interviews with the committee in March and April. The final selection of Moh- ney was made by Hemenway. but he said his decision was based on a recommendation from the search committee. If approved by the Board of Trustees. Mohney would be- come dean of the College of Architecture in January. He would replace Clyde Carpen- ter. who has been the acting dean since the resignation of Jose Oubrerie in July 1991. Oubrerie left UK to become the director of the Ohio State Uni- versity Department of Archi- tecture. Mohney would bring with him an Ivy League education. He completed his undergradu- ate work at Harvard University and received a master‘s degree in architecture from Princeton University. UK Honors Program Direc- tor Christine Havice. chair- woman of the search commit- tee. said the committee was looking for a candidate who had both an academic back- ground and professional experi- ence. Mohney was a lecturer for the Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies between 1981 and I985. For three of those years. he was associate director of education at the In- stitute and was in charge of the Undergraduate Education Pro- gram. After leaving the Institute. Mohney became a partner in a New York Architecture firm. In six years. his office under- took nearly 50 design projects. The Bond of Trustees could grant final wove!

The position of state coordinator is called for in the constitution of the board, which is composed of student govemment presidents of the eight state-supported universi- ties and one community college rep- resentative. However. there had been no coor- dinator for the past two years. “We want to be an effective body and a more productive branch." said Lance Dowdy, UK Student Govem- ment Association president and chairman of the board. “As much as I would like to coor- dinate everything, the University of Kentucky is going to keep me very busy. It's nice to have someone to set up and coordinate our efforts." Wingate was nominated by Na- than Smith. NKU‘s student presi- dent. Wingate won a majority of the board’s votes. For his work. Wingate will earn $150 a semester plus expenses and travel. But for him. the money is not a reason for taking the job. “I‘m interested in going into poli— tics and this is a good way to get my foot in the door." he said. Dowdy names new legal aide Position given to ex-SGA leader Cyndi Weaver By Lance Williams News Editor UK‘s Student Government Asso— ciation is counting on a former pres- ident to help change the direction of its student legal service. Cyndi Weaver. who served as SGA president during the 1987—88 school year. recently was hired to take over the position as legal coun- sel after Keith Baker‘s contract was not renewed. Baker served as SGA legal repre— sentative for the past 14 years. SGA President Lance Dowdy said that after talks with past SGA presidents, he thought a change in the leadership of the program was necessary. “It seemed necessary to me that we make a change." Dowdy said. “We wanted to find someone with a better time commitment." Although Weaver recently had a baby. she cunentiy is not working. and Dowdy said the time she could commit to the program was a big factor in the decision. Hours for the service have not been finalized. but Weaver will be in the office on Saturdays this se- mester, which is the first time this option ha been offered. “I can have more time devoted to forming the program.“ Weaver said. “We will be looking for other re- sources and grants." Weaver will have the same rc- sponsibilities as Baker for the fall semester. but Dowdy said plans are in the works for a program to be set up in which Weaver would super- vise law students and allow them to assist her in giving legal advice to students. Weaver's contract runs through the end of the fall semester. but plans for the new program. which is scheduled to begin in the spring. al- ready are being discussed. Staffing responsibilities have not yet been defined. Weaver expressed interest in coming back to help the program get off the ground. “More than like- ly" she said. “I‘ll stay through the year. “If there is an outside official watching the program. l would love to retain the position.“ Weaver said she hopes to keep open It allows: Thursday Atrgust 26: Friday.

Another goal will be to help students stay away from trouble be- fore it starts. “1 will try and help prevent some problems before they happen. Some students get taken advantage of." she said. Even so. “my goal will be to help students everyday that I'm here. I was really involved on campus as a student. and I think that I am an as- set. because I know where to send them." Baker. who currently runs a law practice in Lexington. said Dowdy told him the program would be tak- ing a different direction and that his contract would not be renewed. Baker said Dowdy had spoken with him about the ideas for the new program. but Baker said he had some concenis about it. “I explained to lance that there are some inherent problems with us- ing law students because of the problems that could develop wrth inconsistent advice. unless you are able to teach commonality among the advice that is given." he said. David Shipley. dean of the (‘ol- lege of Law said SGA‘ s nex ap- proach has two positive aspects First. he said the program would be good for the college and its stu- dents; and second, it would help them gain more experience. “Initially. I don‘t see any barriers to let law students help the attor- ney." said Shipley, who added that most of the problems students bring to the attorney deal either with ten. tal agreements or traffic violations. “The one thing that I would want to make sure of is that they are not practicing law.“ Shipley said. a... .“ww pm If 3? ”3. 1’22 4-: ix iii? 5» g , .55, ‘I. lit art-.5551?” ;-. .9 | 4" 33- WW Kathi. Thuredny, August 20, 1903 k SPORTS UK’s Ralston-Flory ready to go Volleyball coach has visions of championships dancing in her head 3! TV “PM Sports Editor Fran Ralston-Flory recently was medhcadcoachoftthKvol- leyball team, but that‘s not her biggest concern. “Right now. I‘m trying to figure outhowtouseallthetalentwe have on this team." she said, reveal- ing her anticipation of the season with a slight giggle. The Wildcms return five of six smers from last year‘s team. which finished the season 25-9 and ad- vamd to the NCAA Final 16. UK is ranked 14th in the preseason poll by Volleyball Monthly and 18th by the Amerim Volleyball Coaches Association. Ralston-Flory was an assistant coach at LSU when the Tigers be- came the first team to advance to the Final Four. She compared this year’s Cats to that LSU team. “Talent-wise, this team has as much or more talent. We are differ ent in the style we play. but athleti- cally the two are about the same." Getting the head coaching posi- tion at UK was in the back of Rais- ton-Hory's mind when she was hired in March as associate coach. but she didn't think it would come this quickly. “It was something that was men— tioned when l was interviewed. I didn‘t think it was going to happen this fast. but we are making a good transition." she said. That transition is from fonner head coach Kathy DeBoer. who was promoted to associate athletics di- rector. to a whole new staff of runnrmara GOLFOCOURSE 885—4331 5 Minutes South of Fayette Mall on Nicholasviue Rd. 18 Championship Holes Driving Range & Practice Facility STUDENT DISCOUNT weekdays Monday-Friday $5.00 off 18 holes w/cart must show valid UK I.D. coaches. ”The team has made the switch pretty well." Ralston-Hory said. "It was pretty easy for me. since (DeBoer) and l have the same basic philosophy on how to play the game. I focus a little more on de- t‘ense than she did. but we are pretty close." Ralston-Flory said UK will hire an associate coach at or near the end of the season. As for this season. the Wildcats are full of promise. “I think it will be an emotional year," Ralston-Flory said. “We have three seniors. all of whom haven't accomplished what they want yet, which is a ring on their finger. We think we have a good shot at it." This season‘s stars promise to be no different than those in the past. Seniors lane Belanger and Eunice Thomas. coupled with the talents of junior Krista Robinson and sopho~ more Molly Dreisbach, give UK a potent lineup. “Jane Belanger has shown tre- mendous leadership since she‘s been here," Ralston-Flory said. “Her experience and abilities on the court will be vitally important to our team this year. All of the sen- iors will give us leadership. Molly is in the best shape of her life. and she will be a major contributor." UK's season begins Sept. 1 with a road match at Miami (Ohio). The Cats play their first home matches Sept. 3-4 during the Big Four Clas- sic with Louisville. Notre Dame and Indiana. Wildcat Lodge closed By Brant Watch Senior Staff Writer By now, most students have al- ready settled into their residence balls or apartments for the duration of the semester. But members of the UK basket- ball team and others slated to occu- py Joe B. Hall Wildcat Lodge will have to wait until this weekend for a campus home. In the meantime. they've been staying at the Campbell House Inn. 1375 Harrodsburg Road. because renovations took longer than ex- pected at Wildcat Lodge. “We‘ll have them back by either Friday or Saturday at the latest." said Larry Ivy. associate director of athletics and internal affairs. "I" he athletic department is paying for them to stay in the Campbell House. We decided upon the Campbell House because of it's convenience ulcempus." “The renovations were supposed to be completed two weeks ago and‘ the team was supposed to move in this past weekend," UK Athletics Director CM. Newton said. “But that's how things go. The renova- tions took a little longer dmn ex- pected." Ivy said only minor. but neces- sary, changes were being made. “We've laid some new carpeting, painted and are putting study desks in the rooms," Ivy said. “It was real- ly in need of a good cleaning. At one time it looked like the Taj Ma- hal. but it was getting to the point where it was embarrassing to take a recruit there. It looked awful."

After a decade of producing in- creasingly commercial music. Bil- ly Joel is in rare form with a return to his rocking blue-collar roots on River ofDreams. his 13th album. Joel rocks harder than he has in a while. but the slick pop is not gone — itjust has more hean. Joel shows us on the hit title track that Top 40 music can have soul, with a 'SOs-style melody and a rhyth- mic. almost African-style beat. Ballads also abound on this di- verse album. proving that the “An- gry Young Man" is no longer ei- ther young or angry — and proud of it. There is the catchy. obvious- ly Christy Brinkley-inspired “Blondc Over Blue" zutd “All About Soul," along with the inti- mate, unaccompanied “Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)." Joel speeds things up a bit on the mid-tempo “'l‘wo Thousand Years," giving a future vision of a beautiful utopia that will rise frotn our Iess-than—perfect world: “There will be miracles/after the last war is won/Science and poet— ry/nrle in the new world to come." But while dreaming of a perfect future. Joel doesn‘t neglect the problems of the present. “No Man‘s Land" is a not-so—subtle satire of modern suburbia: "Give us this day our daily discount out- let merchandise/Raise up a multi- plex and we will make a sacrifice." Of course. any “)(is satire would be incomplete without a reference to Amy Fisher. “Lots more to read about Lolita and suburban lust," Joel sings. Joel balances his intelligent rock with a few of the pop songs that made Storm Front and The Bridge hits. “Great Wall of China" and “A Minor Variation" both ring with keyboards and catchy hooks that only rise above mediocrity because of guitar veteran Leslie West. But the highlight of the album comes when Joel reunites with Midsummer’s Night Fun a party for all of downtown Lexington stummet: . ' (Nights @1111 5:30 PM.

Joel shows his maturity by reveal- ing that the world is no long black or white to him. “These days the edges are blurred. I'm old and tired of war/I hear the other man‘s words/ I'm not that sure any- more." This definitely isn‘t the same Billy Joel that stormed the world 20 years ago. His fire has been tempered by marriage and by the binh of his daughter Alexa Ray, now seven. He’s more mature and, after a couple of albums of uncertain pop. he finally is com- fortable with maturity. If you thought Joel has been a sell-out for the past decade or so, give this album a try. You might agree with the closing song. “lia- mous Last Wor ": “Ain‘t it sweet after all these years?"

Auguot26.1093 Loan default rates high at 3 Ky. schools Associated Press LOUISVILLE. Ky. —- Three technical schools in Kentucky had a 100 percent default rate in a stu- dent-loan program in 1991. accord- ing to a US Department of Educa- tion repon released Tuesday. But those numbers are mislead- ing, a state official said. Delmus Murrell. director of school operations in the Deparunent for Technical Education. said the defaults involved only one student at each of the three schools. But since only one student took pan in the program at those schools, it rep- resented a 100 percent failure rate. Murrell said the numbers of 5m- dents in default at the three techniv cal schools were barely a fraction of the number of students getting loans at other schools.
