UK students
get experience
at state Capitol

By BRANT WELCH
Staff Writer

The political process is supposed to be a behind the sciences affair. but
nearly two dozen UK students are getting a firsthand view of this process.

Twenty-two UK students are participating in the State Legislative lntem-
illiip Program, working as legislative aides during the 1992 General Assem-

y.

9'_l]'3is is the largest number the program has had since it first began in the
l s.

“The legislators tell us we don‘t really learn about the true legislative
process through class. So this on the job experience lets us see firsthand
how the legislative process really works," said Jennifer Pettit. a legislative
aide and an education graduate from Nashville, Tenn.

Sen. Bill Lear (D-Lexington), whom Pettit works for in Frankfort, places
several responsibilities on his interns.

“l have them research bills so l can understand them better and deter-
mine if I am going to vote for them. They work with my constituents in
many ways. And they keep track of my own bills. They mainly do a lot of
general administrative work for me.

“The best way to really understand how the legislative process works is
m be there. Watching how bills get passed and observing the behind the
scenes work is the best type of experience.“

Amy Liebennann. a political science and management junior from Lex-
ington, said she actually has gotten to sit in on important meetings with

Bill calls for financing
tuition for Ky. Guard

By TIA SILVERTHORNE
Staff Writer

The National Guard serves the
state in times of emergency.

Now. a new bill in the Kentucky
General Assembly is attempting to
give something back.

House Bill 181 will provide in-
state tuition to Kentucky National
Guard members at any state sup-
ported university. community col-
lege or vocational school.

Yesterday. the House Appropria-
tions and Revenue Committee
passed the bill unanimously with an
attached $250,000 spending cap on
state appropriations.

Maj. John P. Roth, education of fi-
cer of the Kentucky National
Guard. explained the spending cap
as a protection for the schools.

“It is a cost savings for the scth
so they don‘t have to take it (the
funds) out of their hide,” Roth said.

The bill, introduced by Rep. Rog-
er Noe (D-Harlan) requires that the
student serve at least one year be-
yond the end of the term and earn a

“C" or better in each course.

Debbie McGuffey. associate di-
rector and member of the Council
on Higher Education. said that
council members take a position on
very few bills.

This bill will be no exception.

“We (the council) are monitoring
its progress. but we don't have a
position on it," McGuf fey said.

MSgt. Larry Fowler. a member
of the Council on Higher Educa-
tion. personally supports the bill.

“Every four (National Guard
part-time) positions that are vacant
are equivalent to one federal job at
a salary of $15,000 per year,"
Fowler said. “Federal money into
the state only comes when the poSi-
tions are filled.

“It will take a pretty sophisticat-
ed cost-benef‘it analysis to see if in
come outweighs state appropriation
but I think it will be favorable.“

He admits that he has a double-
vested interest in the bill. As a

Opportunities available

Assoaated Press

WASHINGTON m The number
of Americans filing first-time
claims for unemployment benefits
rose to 459,000 in the last week in
February. pushing the claims figure
to its highest level in a month. the
government said yesterday.

The Labor Department said that
new claims for jobless benefits rose
by 22000 from the 437,000 leyel of
the previous week.

Economists said the number un-
derscored the fact that even though
they believe the economy is finally
beginning to emerge front its pro-
longed .slump, the unemployment
rate is not likely to begin showing
significant improvements until mid-
year or later.

The increase for the week ending
Feb. 29 was generally in line with
analysts' expectations. A decline ol
3.000 in the preceding week had
reflected the fact that newly laid off
workers had one less day to file for
benefits because of the President‘s
Day holiday.

Cuban journalist
shot in New York

By CHRIS SHERIDAN
Associated Press

NEW YORK — An investigative
journalist who once edited the
city's major Spanish-language
newspaper was gunned down exe-
cution-style in a restaurant. police
said.

Manuel de Dios Unanue. 48, was
shot twice in the back of the head
Wednesday night as he stood at the
bar in a restaurant in Queens. police
said. Two gunmen fled the scene.

Police had no immediate motive.

The Cubansbom Unanue was edi-
tor in chief of New York‘s El Dia-
rio-La Prensa from 1981 to 1988.
Before that, he was a police report-
er for 10 years for the Spanish-
language paper.

During the 19703 he investigated
Puerto Rican and Cuban terrorist
groups in New York. In 1987. he
published a book called Secrets of
the Medellin Cartel. And he recent-
ly founded a new publication Crim-

bia 2/. which police described as
an anti-drug magazine.

In February, Unanue testified in
Puerto Rico in a case involving two
pro-independence activists killed in
an ambush by Puerto Rican police.
Ten police officers involved in the
operation were found guilty of com-
mitting perjury before a federal
grand jury that investigated the
deaths.

Less than a month before the
1978 killings, he had written an ar-
ticle about ten'orism in Puerto Rico.

“He was a very, very dedicated
journalist." said Sandra Guzman, a
former El Diario reporter hired by
Unanue. “Everybody would agree
that Manuel was very committed to
news and informing the Hispanic
community about what was going
on in their backyards.“

Unanue was killed in Jackson
Heights, a neighborhood in Queens
with a large Hispanic population.

member of the council and a guard
member. he is concemcd with both

The bill, which was previously
passed by the House Education
Committee, should surface in the
full House soon.

Roth emphasizes the need for stu-
dents to contact their representa-
tives or senators in support of the
bill or simply to attain more infor-
mation.

Student interest should be
sparked by the improvement of edu-

cation in the state and opportuni-
ties provided for future students,
he said.

He also said the current system
of reimbursement is not enough.

“We‘ve had a problem with
funding in the past and with the

The increases were blamed on
higher layoffs in construction and
such manufacturing industries as
textiles, paper, electronic equipment
and primary metals.

States that recorded significant
declines in benefit applications for
the week included Massachusetts.

down 4,304; Delaware, down
1,982; Pennsylvania. down 1,213.
Minnesota. down 1,157. and
Rhode Island, down 1,139.

The drop in jobless benefits was
credited to such factors as fewer
layoffs in the auto industry in Del-
aware and fewer layoffs in apparel
and fabricated metal manufactur-
ing in Pennsylvania.

The state totals, unlike the over-
all figurc, are not adjusted for sea-
sonal variations.

“I was really surprised that Steve
(Riggs) and his associates wanted

tant bill they are trying to pass. I
have really made a lot of contacts
anti would really suggest to other
students to get involved," Lieber-
mann said.

To be eligible for the internship,
students tnust have earned at least
nine credit hours in political sci-
ence. said Penny Miller, a UK polit-
ical science professor and program
supervisor.

If chosen for the program, stu-
dents will spend 20 hours a week in
Frankfon all day Tuesdays and

Thursdays and half a day on.
Wednesdays. For their effons, stu-

dents eam six credit hours toward

graduation. They also must take a

legislative politics class as well as

meet an hour per week With Miller

to discuss their progress.

While the program encompasses
a lot of the participants‘ time, they
do accomplish their assigned work.

Jill Story. a political science sen-
ior from Flemingsburg, Ky., said
the program is time-consuming. but
she gets most of her work done in
Frankfort.

“Sometimes I'll have to write let-
ters to constituents at home. but
I‘ve been very satisfied with the
program. It‘s been really reward-
ing."

‘Once Upon A Crime’ is waste of acting talent
If

By TOBY GIBBS
Staff Critic

The actors starring in the new
comedy, “Once Upon A Crime.“
should pool their money, buy the
rights to the movie, then burn every
copy. lt's that kind of film.

Avoid it at all costs. Whatever
you do, refuse to see this movie.
Trust me. Only see it if you‘re the
kind of person who slows down to
see car accidents on the interstate.
This movie is an incoherent, messy
disaster from the unfunny begin-
ning to the obvious close. This is a
movie that makes so little sense
you‘ll be left gazing at the screen.

prove of and finance such a project.

Like seeing a dog driving a con-

to make your head snap back
around and take notice. The impor-

flashy “nom de theatre” (that’s
French for “stage name” for those
who have been in deep siesta during
class). but he also has the musical
flair and ingenuity to back up his
catchy name.

Following in the free spirit of
folks from the “Lone Star" state,
MC~900 F'f Jesus‘ creative juices
flow from the same vein that
brought us such people as Willie

“Once Upon A Crime" seem like a
spoof of Agatha Christie-style who-

much of the plot — though I pray
you’ll never see this movie, making
the giving away of the plot a moot
point — it concems the murder of a
wealthy countess and a half dozen
or so Americans who may or may
not be involved.

The premise isn‘t bad. The prob-

amateurish script that seems to have
