For sophomore Chris Yates, this
year's Midnight Madness was going
to be different

After the football game last year,
Yates barely made it to UK’s first
practice after running to Memorial
Coliseum.

“I made it in the last 10 rows of
the Coliseum,” Yates said. “So I de-
cided to come earlier this year."

This year, Yates, along with fel-
low sophomore Tim Meade and
freshman Chonda Harris, got in line
at 4:30 pm. only to ﬁnd that they
were not in the top 100 people in
line.

That fact didn’t bother a lot of

other people. The gates were not
supposed to ofﬁcially open until 8
last night, but anticipation created a
huge line which stretched down Eu-
clid Avenue, through the Hardee’s
parking lot and behind Memorial
Coliseum.

As soon as the gates opened, ea-
ger fans rushed into two doors in the
front of the Coliseum.

Yates wasn't worried. He said he
is just looking forward to the start of
the basketball season.

“I think that they will surprise a
lot of people this year,” he said. “1
can see them winning 18 games this
year."

Harris wasn‘t so optimistic about
this year, instead focusing on next
year’s team.

hell, crowd

cheers on Cats, school

By MEREDITH LITTLE
Senior Staff Writer

UK fans were literally blue at last
Friday night’s cold, soggy Wildcat
Roar, but the chilly temperatures
didn‘t keep them from cheering the
Cats on as they “Yelled Like Hell."

About 4200 students, alumni and
fans came out for the annual pre-
homecoming pep rally at Common-
wealth Stadium, moved this year
from Thursday night to Homecom-
ing Eve.

Wildcat Roar organizers said al-
though the weather probably kept
some people home. the turnout was
better than in past years.

“I know of a lot of parents who
got to come to Wildcat Roar this
year,” because it was held on Fri-
day, said organizer Tonya Mitchum.
“And the community college prin-
cesses got to come and some of
the player‘s parents.

“It went better than I ever expect-
ed it to go,“ she said.

After the cheerleading squad led
the crowd through several cheers,
UK Football Coach Bill Curry
urged them to carry those cheers
over to the next day’s homecoming
game.

“I want you to save that enthu~
siasm for tomorrow night,” he said.

Saying it is “easy to talk about
building championships," Curry
emphasized the imponance of stick-
ing with the team even when losses
outnumber wins.

“That is the time when we need
you the most what we really
want to do is turn the comer in
about 25 hours right here," he said.

“I think you’re a fine student
body," he said, telling fans to “stick
around, because you’ll have a
whole lot to yell about the rest of

your time here and as alumni of this
great university."

Although the football team was
absent, outside linebacker Randy
Holleran and injured quarterback
Freddie Maggard spoke brieﬂy.

Maggard repeated Curry’s call for
the crowd to bring that enthusiasm
to the game, saying it is difficult for
anyone who hasn‘t played out on
the field to realize the difference
student support can make.

“It‘s a great thrill for me and my
teammates to have you come out
and support us," Maggard said.

Comedian Vic Henley. an Auburn
University graduate, emceed the ral-
ly, saying he was glad to be “back to
where people speak correctly."

Before the “Yell Like Hell" con-
test. Athletics Director CM. New-
ton presented the five finalists for
the 1990 Homecoming Court: Kim
Thomas, UK Marching Band: Diana
Goetz, Delta Gamma social sorority:
Paige Walters, Delta Delta Delta so-
cial sorority: Kelli Wickline, Farm-
house social fraternity; and Maria
Moore, Lexington Community Col-
lege.

The student organizations in the
crowd — all greek except for three
independent organizations — com-
peted for trophies rewarding the
group that could cheer the Wildcats
on the best and the loudest.

The overall winner was Chi Ome~
ga social sorority. First in the inde-
pendent division was Kirwan Tow-
er, followed by Holmes Hall and
Student Athletics Council. Delta

“If they do well on the road. they
may win 18 games,” Harris said
about Yates‘ comment. “I‘m really
looking forward to next year."

Although their opinions differed
on the team play, Harris and Yates
both agreed on one thing.

“I want to see (Jamal) Mashbum
play,” Harris said with excitement.

“There is no way that they can
keep Mashbum out of the lineup,"
Yates added.

Although the trio waited for three
and a half hours just to get into the
Coliseum, they weren’t even close
to getting the “Iron Man” award for
the longest wait.

That honor went to Gary Phelps
and a group of his friends.

The group had been waiting out-

lndepondent since 1971

ine up to get first glimpse of Cats

side the front door of Memorial Col-
iseum since 1:30 pm. before they,
along with countless other Big Blue
fans, finally got their first glimpse
of this year's version of the UK bas-
ketball team.

“I just love basketball,“ Phelps
said. “Especially when it’s Rick Pit-
ino basketball."

Phelps and his companions Kim
Robbins, Wendy Rice, Larry Rice.
Stephen Rader and Piper Swanson
were in the first group of students in
line, and played games of spades to
pass the time.

It was the seventh straight Mid-
night Madness for Rader, who grad-

Police, ABC cite 16 for alcohol-related offenses

By MEREDITH LITTLE
Senior Staff Writer

A weekend crackdown on under-
age drinking at several Lexington
liquor stores resulted in arrests or
citations of 16 people on various
charges.

The State Alcohol Beverage Con-
trol Board teamed up with Lexing~
ton Fayette-Urban County Police to
place several undercover officers at

liquor store drive-in windows Fri-
day night to catch people under 21
attempting to purchase alcohol
without proper identification or
with a fake ID.

However, merchant participation
in ABC efforts to curtail underage
drinking is down from past years,
said ABC Enforcement Supervrsor
Howard Kinney.

The ABC generally places under-
cover agents in a store only after re-

ceiving complaints front store own-
ers about people under 21 attempt-
ing to purchase alcohol. Kinney said
he hopes the reason merchant paruc-
ipation is down this year is because
fewer people have been attempting
to purchase alcohol illegally.

“Usually this time of year, when
freshman come on campus, they‘re
more likely to attempt to purchase
alcohol," he said. “That‘s why we
start in September."

The stores participating in last
weekend's crackdown were: Sharps
Liquors, 2439 Nicholasvrlle Rd:
Springs Liquor Shop, 837 Lane Al-
len Rd., The Imperial Shoppe, 397
Waller Ave.; Coliseum Liquors,
379 Rose St.; Parkway Liquor, 2321
Paris Rd.; Big Daddy Liquors, T72
Woodland Ave.; and Bryan Station
Liquor on Bryan Avenue at Morgan
Street, Kinney said.
