BV HEIDI PROBST
Staff Writer

The Student Government Associa-
tion's Election Board decided yes-
terday to let the Judicial Board de»
cide whether James Rose’s election
as SGA president is valid.

Last Monday James Rose. who
was elected SGA president on March
31. was challenged at the Elections
Board hearing by Ashcraft on five
charges of campaign violations.

Ashcraft was on the campaign
staff of SGA Senator at Large David
Botkins. Rose defeated Botkins and
SGA Senior Vice President Susan
Bridges for the presidency.

Specifically. Ashcraft contended
that Rose had: 1.Violated expendi-
ture limits: 2. Removed opponents
posters; 23. Misrepresentated his

Senator Mike Moloney told profes-
sors yesterday that although higher
education received about $40 million
more from the budget passed by the
General Assembly than it would
have under Governor Wallace Wil-
kinson‘s proposed budget. lobbying
efforts must continue.

Speaking at a meeting of the
American Association of University
Professors yesterday. Moloney. who
represents the 13th district which in-
cludes the University of Kentucky.
said that some of those funds came
from reallocating some of the
money Wilkinson had earmarked for
economic development and eliminat-
ing a prison project proposed by
Wilkinson.

“Governor Wilkinson decided that
economic development would be the
primary focus for Kentucky and not
education." Moloney said. “The
General Assembly decided educa-
tion wouldbefirst."

Moloney said he felt some kind of
tax reform would take place during
the next session of the General As-
sembly which could provide more
funding for education.

He stressed that funding for high-
er education would remain an issue
among legislators but added that
concerned teachers and staff of uni-
versities and community colleges
could help by organizing lobbying ef-
forts.

When asked about the perfor-
mance of UK President David Rose-
lle. Moloney was very complimen—
tary.

“He‘s been outstanding, absolutely
outstanding. Everything he does sur-
passes what he did the week before.
I‘m very impressed with him," he
said.

Moloney said that he felt legis-
lators as well as the governor took
notice of Roselle‘s reaction after the
governor told university presidents
to “quit crying“ (over the budget).

“Instead of reacting in anger. he
simply told the governor ‘We‘re not
acting like crybabies; here are the
facts‘ and I think he impressed the
governor and everyone around him
when he did that." Moloney said.

tions: 5. Violated campaign distance
requirements.

Elections Board (To-Chairman Will
Renshaw contended that Ashcraft
had to show Rose the evidence she
had of clections' violations by the
designated deadline last Thursday
by 12:30pm.

But because she did not meet that
deadline. Renshaw and the Elections
Board (lid not allow Ashcraft to
bring her evidence into the proceed-
ings yesterday

Consequently. the Elections
Board. deciding it did not have evi~
dence to act on the matter. passed
jurisdiction to the Judicial Board.

Ashcraft said she thought she had
until 2:30 pm to turn in the
materials presenting the accusations
of Rose‘s failure to meet the proper
campaigning guidelines.

“The Elections Board decided to
pass the decision to the Judicial
Board because of preparation on
Kathy‘s part and James‘ lack of
being able to prepare." Renshaw
said.

Ashcraft has 48 hours beginning
after the hearing with the Elections
Board to file her accusations with
the Judicial Board and Ashcrat‘t said
that she will go the JudiCial Board
with her accusations.

Ashcraft said foremost among her
accusations is evidence to prove
Rose paid more $800 for his cam
paign expeditures. She said she has
an affidavit of a printer showing he
spent over the limit.

The expense limitation for a pl‘i‘st-
dential candidate is $500.

tloweui Rose said he does not
see how Ashcialt can mine he spent
more thin the amount he gaVe on
his candidate expenditure form ——
5439 ii;

“1 don't think she has anything to
prove " Rose said.

itosc also commented on the issue
Ashcraft has created.

"1 think it's good that the E—Board
and tilt: J Board go through the me»
littlis because in a democratic socie-
t\ that has to be done but it‘s unfor-
liiiialc that one person would go
toward disqualifying a candidate for
the sake of disqualifying me.“ he
said

Judicial Board (‘haii‘man Ken

would consider Ashci‘at't's charges.

Little Kentucky Derby starts tomorrow

By THOMAS J. Sl'l.Ll\':\N
News Editor

In past years. UK‘s Little Ken-
tucky Derby has seen both tragedy
and tantilizing events.

Fourteen years ago. when John
Herbst first arrived at UK. LKD
was the talk of the town. Herbst. di.
rector of student activities. said that
the event was centered around bicy-
cle and scooter races and was con-
sidered a “real big deal."

But due to safety factors that
arose from a resurfaced track and
other concerns. the races were
phased out and the LKD format
changed. Herbst said.

At that time of tramition. about 13
years ago, events such as the hot air
balloon race became the new focus.

As UK traveled into the late 7m

and early 805. LKD began to run out
of gas. said Missy Derifield. LKD
chairwoman. ”in past years it
begantofallalittle."

But in 1985. when current Student
Activities Board President Lynne
Hunt was LKD chairman. things
started to change.

Events such as the “Run for the
Rodents" and the "Ping Pong Drop“
were added along with others. Stu-
dent participation began to rise.
LKD began to pick up steam.

But in the spring of l987, “due to
no one's fault but mother nature"
LKD was struck by a tragedy. A
weekend-long snow storm froze any
chance of carnival rides. hot air bal-
loon races or other events. Derifield
said.

Plans. however. continued as
usual this year as Derifield took on

the task of planning LKD for a sec-
ond year.

Now Derifield says that she sees
LKD as “being. potentially. the
homecoming of spring“ this year

“I‘m ecstatic with it." she said. “I
think it's going to be really terrific. "

Instead of letting last year‘s trage-
dy haunt her. Derifield says that she
and the mt of the board have used
it as "more of a motivator. because
we wanted toseeithappen.“

“i think it can surpass anything
we‘ve done before." Herbst said.
“The nature of the events is so
good.“

Hunt agreed.

“Now with an entire weekend we
can start a tradition this year that
will pick up steam (in years to
come),"Huntsaid.

“This week used to be a whole

mumbo jumbo of events with no
focus." Hunt said. “Missy has done
a fantasticjol) "

“There is such potential for this
event.” [)erifield said. “We consider
this year similar to a stepping stone
year to start a base for a tradition of
continued growth. "

But placing that stepping stone on
the calender for this week wasn't
done overnight. “We‘ve been work-
ing on this since last semester." De»
rifield said.

In that time the LKD committee
has managed to schedule a number
of events. including concert perfor-
mances by two bands. The Associa-
tion and The Crickets.

The first event. the Ping Pong
Drop. begins at noon tomorrow.

Hostage hopes Kuwait
meets hijackers’ wishes

By HASAN MROL'E
Associated Press

ALGIERS. Algeria — A man iden-
tified as a member of Kuwait‘s
royal family spoke yesterday from
the hijacked Kuwaiti jetliner and he
said he hoped his government yields
to the gunmen‘s demands to end the
tworweek ordeal.

Mom of the brief radio message
from the man the hijackers said was
Fadel Khaled Al-Sabah was impossi-
ble to understand, except for the
part about their demand that Ku-
wait tree 17 prolranian prisoners
convicted in the 1983 attacks on the
I' S and French embassies in the
Persian Gulf sheikdom.

“I hope that Kuwait releases all
the prisoners,“ the man said, speak-
ing in Arabic in a feeble, halting
voice, Kuwaiti officials insist they
will not give in to the hijackers, who
have killed two Kuwaiti passengers.

Three of the approximately 35 peo-
ple still aboard the Kuwait Airways
Boeing 747 that was hijacked April 5
are distant relatives of the emir of
Kuwait. Two of those relatives are
women.

Hostages released earlier have
said al-Sabah is in worse condition
than any of the other hostages
aboard the jet. describing him, as
"the most psychologically broken
down" and suffering from a stoma
ach ailment.

When the message was read on
the plane's radio about 3:10 p.m.
(10:10 am. EDT), the control tower
had trouble understanding it.

“It was not very clear. Could he
try to say it once more?" the control
tower said in English.

“No, because he doesn't want to
speak, but I want to confirm that he
is one of the royal family, he is
Fadel Al-Sabah," a hijacker re—
sponded in English.

Radio conversations yesterday
made no reference to refueling the
plane or leaving Algeria. On Satur-
day, the gunmen said they wanted
fuel to fly elsewhere and commit a
“massacre," but Sunday they said
they would give Algeria more time
to seek a solution. No deadline was
announced.

Algerian officials have been acting I

as mediators between a high-level
delegation from Kuwait and the gun-
men, boarding the plane several
times a day for talks, little of whose
substance has been disclosed.

The jumbo jet was hijacked while
en route from Bangkok to Kuwait
with 112 people aboard, and first di-
verted to Mashhad in northeastern
Iran. where 57 passengers were
freed. On April 8, it was flown to
Larnaca, Cyprus, where the hijack-
ers killed two passengers and re-
leased 13 others. It came to Algiers‘
Houari Boumedienne Airport on
Wednesday.

The boy. 10-year-old Eric Matthew

William L. Donahoo, 43. called
several friends and relatives before

“The one person was a relative
that called and she just felt that his

voice and his conversation was
strange," Oldham said. Two people
tipped police about Donahoo‘s calls,
he said.

Authorities went to the apartment
of Vickie Lynn Donahoo, 31, about 11
pm. CDT Sunday and found her in
the kitchen. Eric and his sister, 7-
yearsld Kari Renee Welden, were

Police with warrants charging

ing room of the residence with a
gunshot wound to the head. He died
at the Evanvsille hospital late yes-

to have been used in all four of the
shootings was recovered, police

Man picked for job
at Justice Dept.
near withdrawing

By PETE YOST
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — John Shepherd,
Attorney General Edwin Meese III’s
choice to fill the No. 2 post at the
Justice Department, told officials
yesterday to proceed with a search
to fill the job, department sources
said.

While not yet closing the door on
the post, Shepherd is on the verge of
withdrawing from consideration for
the job of deputy attorney general,
the sources said, speaking on condi-
tion of anonymity.

Shepherd has said he is concerned
about the stress on his family of the
public scrutiny that has occurred
since Meese picked him.

Less than two weeks ago, Meese
hurriedly selected Shepherd, a for-
mer president of the American Bar
Association, for the position without
customary White House clearance
and FBI background checks. Presi-
dent Reagan has not yet formally
nominated Shepherd.

In brief remarks to reporters,
Meese said that he didn‘t expect to
have a decision from Shepherd until
mid-week. But several sources said
that Shepherd as a matter of courte-
sy had already informed the depart-
ment that he probably will withdraw
from consideration for the post and
that aides to Meese should start
looking for other candidates. In fact,
the search was already under way,
said the sources.

Meanwhile, Meese has gone out-
side the department in attempt to
fill another top vacancy, the post of
assistant attorney general in charge
of the criminal division, other Jus'
tice Department sources said.

Sounded out about the possibility
of taking the criminal division post
by aides to Meese is Stephen A.
Saltzburg, a University of Virginia
law professor. Saltzburg is a consul-
tant on a legal question in the Iran-
Contra prosecution of independent
counsel Lawrence Walsh, said the

sources, also speaking on condition
of anonymity.

Reached at his home, Saltzburg
said he hadn’t been offered the job,
but would not comment when asked
whether he had been approached
about it.

Saltzburg is a consultant to former
federal judge and ex-U.S. attorney,
Herb Stern. Stern was hired by
Walsh to represent the Iran-Contra
prosecutor on the issue of congres—
sional immunity.

The legal question is whether or
not the congressional testimony
compelled by grants of immunity to
former National Security Council
staffer Oliver North, former nation-
al security adviser John Poindexter
and businessman Albert Hakim
prejudice their Fifth Amendment
right against self-incrimination.

A former bookkeeper from Shep—
herd's law firm testified shortly be-
fore Meese recommended him for
the post that she had an affair weith
Shepherd. The bookkeeper, who was
convicted of embezzlement, claimed
Shepherd had told her to write
checks to herself. Shepherd denied
that he had an affair with her or
that he had authorized her to write
checks.

The trial testimony and Shep-
herd‘s membership in an all-white
country club and an all-male social
club brought increasing public scru-
tiny to Shepherd after Meese an-
nounced his selection April 5.

Meese‘s efforts to fill the posts of
deputy attorney general and head of
the criminal division stem from the
March 29 resignations of Arnold
Burns and criminal division chief
William Weld. They stepped aside
out of concern that the nearly year
old criminal investigation of Meese
is hurting Justice Department oper-
ations, morale and image.

Meese, who testified before a fed-
eral grandy jury for four hours in
the probe yesterday, has refused to
resign, predicting that he won‘t be
indicted.

 Speaker
to discuss
apartheid

By JULIE ESSELMAN
Staff Writer

Donald Woods, a South African
journalist and outspoken leader of
the fight against apartheid, will
speak tonight on the South African
racial policy and its global effects.

Woods, whose tumultuous life is
depicted in the recent movie “Cry
Freedom," will give a talk entitled
“Apartheid and the Tragedy of
South Africa“ at 8 pm. in the
Worsham Theater.

Woods, 54, is the former editor of
South Africa's leading anti~apart-
heid newspaper. the Daily Dispatch
His frequent editorial attacks
against apartheid drew much crit«
icism from the South African gov-
ernment. and in 1977 he was ar-
rested for writing about the killing
of Black Consciousness leader Steve
Biko by officers of the State Security
Police.

Woods was forced into strict isola-
tion and forbidden to write. to speak
publicly or with more than one. per-
son at a time. or to be quoted in the
press, However. three months later,
he made a dramatic escape dis~
guised as a priest and fled to London
where he now works as the director
of an international campaign for the
end to apartheid,

“Donald Woods is the foremost ex-
pert on the creation of apartheid and
South African policy." said Christy
Bradford. chairman of the Student
Government Association Speaker‘s
Bureau. “It's such a pertinent topic.
and a lot of people don‘t understand
how apartheid came about and its
effects,“

Woods has written Several books
about the struggle against apart-
heid. including his autobiography,
Asking For Trouble. and Biko, a bi-
ography of Steve Biko.

“He's reached a lot of people
through his writing.” Bradford said.
“After reading his books. I can‘t
imagine having to live down in
South Africa. It's awiiig what's
going on down there — a horrifying
awe.“

In 1985 Woods was appointed spe-
cial adviser on South African affairs
to the ~til—nation Commonwealth Sec-
retariat in London. and he has trav-
eled throughout the world to speak
about apartheid, He has given talks
at several American colleges. iii-
cludiiig Stanford t'tiiversity. the
University of Wisconsin. and Boston
(‘ollege

"He‘s going to be excellent."
Bradford said. “He's very qualified
to speak on this topic. to say the
least. l hope anyone who is inter-
ested in racial prejudice will go be-
cause I think it will be very eiilight»
ening.
