Legislators react cooly to Wilkinson’s ‘people’s budget’

By MARK Fl. CHELLGREN
Associated Press

FRANKFORT, Ky. -— Gov.
Wallace Wilkinson outlined a
"people’s budget" yesterday to an
audience of legislators who ap-
peared cool to his claim that it pro-
vides a historic opportunity for
Kentucky and its children.

“In my opinion, this is our best
and maybe our only chance to ad-
dress these concerns," Wilkinson
said.

The speech,
which lasted
almost an hour
and 15 min-
utes, included a
recapitulation
of the high-
lights of Wil-
kinson's pro-
posed $8.5
billion General
Fund budget WILKINSON
for the coming two fiscal years
and the $1 billion tax increase the

governor said is needed to provide
the services.

The speech was Wilkinson’s
ﬁrst shot at face-to-face selling of
his budget and tax ideas to the
General Assembly since they were
introduced. yet the reaction from
the senators and representatives as-
sembled for a joint session was
little more than polite.

“I think it's fair to label this bud-
get a people's budget," Wilkinson
said. “After two years of common
sacrifice, I can now report that our

commonwealth is on sound finan.
cial footing and that our budget's
priorities truly reflect our people's
priorities."

Only twice was Wilkinson‘s
speech interrupted by applause.
and in neither case was it prompted
by legislators. Major gubematorial
addresses in the last decade have
received warm, sometimes even
raucous responses from legislators

Legislators speculated that the
response may have been muted be-

brary yesterday afternoon.

WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY: Lexingtonian Leslie Powell. a UK medical student, studied on the second floor in Margaret i. King Li-

‘Buddy Program’ keeps ‘at risk’ students in school

By JONATHAN MILLER
Staff Writer

Jane consistently missed her see-
ond—grade classes last year at Max-
well Elementary.

When Donna Renfro, the
school's community liaison, visit-
ed Jane‘s home, she found the
cause of the problem.

“Jane's parents hadn‘t finished
school," Renfro said. “They felt
that there wasn‘t a need for Jane to
go to school since the school sys-
tem failed them."

In an effon to keep more stu-
dents like Jane in school, Renfro

developed the “Buddy System."

The program matches potential
drop-out students with UK stu-
dents. The student meets with the
UK volunteer on a regular basis
and discusses his or her progress in
school.

About 100 UK students visited
the school last spring, Renfro said.

“Some children (at the school)
needed some attention," she said.
“All children need someone to like
them for just the way they are.”

UK has been involved for several
years in reaching out to “at-risk"
students, according to Wayne Har—
vey, UK's director of educational

services.

“At-risk" students are those
whom educators say may drop out
of school because of various socio-
economic factors. including family
problems and poverty, Harvey
said.

Renfro said that the “Buddy Pro-
gram“ has been a success in target-
ing potential drop-outs.

“Teachers have told me that the
grades, attendance and overall atti-
tude of the kids who have buddies
visit them have improved," she
said.

Although the Maxwell program
was focused at first on children

from low-income homes, it was
expanded to include other stu-
dents.

Carole Devine, Renfro‘s daugh-
ter, is a UK family studies graduate
student and has been involved with
the “Buddy Program" since its in-
ception.

“I got so much satisfaction when
Jessica (3 sixth-grader) wrote me a
letter thanking me for helping her
with problems," Devine said.

senior, buddied-up Wlll'l Joni, a

cause details of the budget had
been doled out by Wilkinson over
the past two weeks.

Still, Wilkinson took pains to
point out what he believed were the
highlights of his spending plan as
well as to begin lobbying for its
adoption.

“I welcome your interest, con-
structive revision and improve—
ments,” Wilkinson said. “I believe
we have a sound package that must
be enacted. We shall not soon have
this opportunity again. We cannot

afford to squander it."

Wilkinson emphasized his bud
get's new funding for education at
all levels, and recommended a
school reform package that reflects
his Iongaheld advocacy of school-
based management, performance
standards and curric ulum changes.

“This is the beginning of a great
day and a great session tor educa-
tion iii Kentucky." Wilkinson said.

UK’s black population
rose slightly since 1978

Assoclated Press
and Staff reports

FRANKFORT, Ky. — The L'tii—
versity of Louisville is the only
state school to dramatically in
crease its black student population
since 1978, according to the Ken-
tucky Council on Higher Ezduta
uon.

L‘K’s number was only slightly
higher than its mark that year.

“My feeling is that I‘m not that
concerned with the number of stu-
dents we get, but what we do after
we get them," said UK Vice Chan-
cellor for Minority Affairs Wil-
liam Parker.

Parker said that 79 percent of
liK’s black students graduate,
“and that's a rate that exceeds
white students.“

“There are some plans to in-
crease the number of (black) stu-
dents on campus but the best way
to recruit students is to take care of
the ones we have,“ Parker said.
“And I think we do that very suc~
ccssfully."

While most state public llllth’F
sities have experienced a shght
steady increase in minority student
enrollment during the past I?
years, the increase is not necessary
ly a sign of success. other leaders
say.

Black enrollment has not kept
pace Wllh the increases in white
enrollment. said Gary Cox, CXCQU'
tive director of the council.

“I think we would have to say
we‘re standing still." said John
Frazer, executive director of the
(.‘ouncil of Independent Kentucky
Colleges and l'niversities. “And
that means, in effect, that we're
probably slipping backwards.”

Kentucky is still ahead of the
rest of the nation, though. The an-
nual survey of the American
Council on Education, released
earlier this week, found that black
college enrollments nationwide
have significantly declined Since

the mid-1970s.

In contrast to l of L, both Ken-
tucky State L'nivcrstty and West»
em Kentucky L'riiversity have dra-
matically lost black students suite
the ‘i‘Ji‘tis.

There were small, consistent
gains for Morehead State, Murray
State and Ntirthem Kentucky and
for L'K‘s )4 community colleges
since l9”,

And at Eastern Kentiitky L‘ni-
\‘CfSll, the black student popula-
tion peaked slightly in the early
I980s before falling back to about
W70s‘ levels. EKL' is slightly on
dcr its I978 figure

Amendment protects when journalists fail, C-J editor says

By GREGORY A. HALL
Staff Writer

Courier-Joumal Editor David V.
Hawpe said yesterday that “the
First Amendment is an enormous
grant of privilege."

But Hawpe said that a 1989 Su-
preme Court decision allowing
censorship of high school newspa-
pers causes him to be concerned
about the future of the First
Amendment.

Hawpe, a UK alumnus, ad-
dressed about 30 people for 45
minutes in the First Amendment
Speaker Series before taking ques-
tions. His lecture, given in the
Enoch Grehan Journalism Build-
ing‘ First Amendment Center, was
titled “Why The First Amendment
Is First“

The Supreme Court based the
right of a principal to sensor on

“reasonably related to legitimate
pedagogical concerns," Hawpe
said.

Hawpe, who was elected yester-
day as the president of the Ken-
tucky Press Association, said that
the Student Press Law Center sta-
tistics show that requests for legal
aid are higher since the court‘s de-
cision.

The decision “has made a dis-
turbing pattern,” Hawpe said. “It is
clear that the decision in the case
has caused those who saw an
opening in the First Amendment to
move through that opening and ex-
ploit it in respect to student news-
papers."

Hawpe said that 85 percent of
the news in one high school paper
in Washington state has to be
“school-related or teen-age type
activities."

“I am mystified over what ‘teen-

age type’ information is,“ saic
Hawpe, who has teen-agers of his
own.

Hawpe also mentioned a Lexing-
ton high school paper, whose edi
torial urging teen-agers to be re
sponsible in deciding about sex,
was censored. “My experience is
that no one has to condone sex for
teens. They are fully able to do tha
themselves.“

Hawpe said that while he was 2
staff member of the Kentucky Ker»
nel during the 19603, then-UK
President John Oswald tried tc
censor the paper.

The Kernel did not become inde-
pendent from the University until
1971.

“An attempt was made to re-
move me from the staff of the Ker-
nel by Dr. John Oswald," Hawpe

UK’s ‘Carmen’ to showcase renowned opera singer

Davidson
to make
local debut

By HWER HAYES
Assistant Arts Editor

The UK Opera Theatre will per-
form Georges Bizet’s classic opera
“Carmen," a tale of tragic love, at
the Otis A. Singletary Center for
the Arts this month. It will be the
ﬁrst time “Carmen” has been per-
formed at UK.

The lead role of Carmen will be

performed by the internationally re-
nowned mezzo-soprano Diana Dav-
idson.

“I haven't done this role for
about 10 years.” said Davidson.
who is a Lexington native and a
UK vocal instructor. “I’ve put it
away. I do another role in the ope—
ra, which I’ve done in several opera
companies in the United States, but
I deliberately chose not to do Car-
men until I got a little bit older.
It's a hard role."

A lack of experience is not a
problem for Davidson. Her other
performance credits include roles in
“The Barber Of Seville," “The Mar-
riage of Figaro” and “Madame But-
terﬂy.”

CENTER FOR THE ARTS

Diana Davidson, a Lexington native. has performed with sev-
eral opera companies, including the National Opera Compnay

Davidson received her formal
training in opera at the Oberlin
Conservatory in Ohio.

In addition to her adjunct duties
at UK, Davidson also serves as
part-time spokesperson for the Ope-
ra of Central Kentucky.

“l was approached by members of
the community who wanted to start
(the professional opera company),"
Davidson said. “They asked me to
help them. This was about a year
and a half ago.”

Although the Opera of Central
Kentucky is separate from UK.
Davidson said “they are very sup-
portive of the. work done at the
University."

Davidson describes “Carmen" as
a “tragic love story.” It is the story
of Carmen, a young gypsy. and an-
other young girl who competes
with Carmen for the affection of a
soldier. The soldier, Don Jose,
must compete with a toreador
named Escamillo for Carmen’s
heart.

Don Jose becomes intrigued with
Carmen after rescuing her frotn be-
ing arrested for her role in a fight at
a tobacco factory. Jose then deserts
the army for (‘armen and joins the
gypsy way of lite. According to
Davidson. [his now means that
Jose has “lost all hope of joining
nonnal society" by falling in with
the gypsies.

This production of the dramatic
opera contains an intercollegiate en-
semble. The role of Don Jose is to
be played by Perry Smith, a faculty
member at Eastern Kentucky Uni-
versity, and Escamillo will be
played by Wayne Gebb from Mid-
way College.

Assistant musical director Phyl~
lis Jenness said “Carmen" was
brought to UK for several reasons.

“We do a major opera every year.
and it’s one that we wanted to do
for some time." Jenness said. “Be-
fore we choose an opera we pretty
well have to know that there are, at
least, potential candidates for the
leading roles. We had a very fine
Carmen here in town and knew of
the other roles. That’s one factor.

Gere changes with the times

By JUUE ROWLAND
Staff Writer

Richard Gere's mouth should be
washed out with soap after “Internal
Affairs." In this Henry Bean film
where sex, sin and scandal run ram-
pant. Gere’s character leads in all
three areas.

Gere plays a Los Angeles cop.
Dennis Beck, whose partner is be»
ing investigated by the Internal Af-
fairs Division of the police depart-
ment. Andy Garcia is Raymond
Avilla, who investigates the case
with his lesbian partner.

Violence is a regular occurrence
in the film. The males in the film
bleed at least once, and so does the
lesbian.

HouiOsexuality had a subtle
vein throughout the film. In one
scene. Gere strokes his partner's

neck after Van has given his wife a
black eye.

Gere is a human hormone in
this film. When he is not sexually
engaged with Van‘s wife, the wife
of a man who hires him as a hit
man, his ex-wife. his present wife,
or Raymond’s wife, what is he sup-
posed to do?

Make cntde jokes, or kill people.

The movie’s suspenseful scenes
and interesting plotline are similar
to a television cop movie except
for the Obscenities.

Though violent, the action of
the movie was exciting. It is sur-
prising to see Gere as a bad guy in
a movie after his work in “An Offi-
cer anti a Gentleman" and “No Mer-
cy“.

llis evil role was a departure
from his stereotype, proving he can
play a diversity of characters. One

brated, one inductee cried.

was killed in a hit-and-run accident
in New York three months ago.

“When she took me on four
years ago, she swore she was going
to take me back to the stars where I
used to be." he said. “it‘s tragic
she's not here tonight with me."

JAGGER

ends up hating Gere’s character by
the end of the movie. Stirring up
emotions, good or bad. is a favora-
ble trait fora movie.

Garcia‘~ character is apathetic
throughout the film. in one scene
Gere enters the elevator he‘s on and
physically abuses Raymond and
leaves him lying on the floor of the
elevator lit a fetal position.

Although not as muscular as
Gere, (iarcra could have put up
stronger resistance. He just stands
there and lets (icre pummel him.

Gere gives an example of an at-
tractive actor that must change his
range ol acting as he gets older.
Beck is a very Ulilt‘ft‘lll character
troni (iere’s prVltilh roles. and a
vulgar one. With the high prices of
going to the movies. this film
would have more appeal as a televi-
sion movie.

PHOTO COURTESV OF ARTIST

Diana Davidson rehearses for the January 24th perfomiance of Georges Bizet‘s “Carmen." The
opera Will have three performances at the Otis A. Singletary Center for the Arts.

The other is that ‘Carmen' is a
very big choral opera and heretofore
we have not been ill a situation
where we had a chorus. But now
the University Choristcrs, under
the direction of Roger Wesby, are
going to function as the choms.”

Jenness added that “you can‘t do
a big choral opera without a chorus
\U we have not dorte it before. I
think it was that combination of
lactors that got Us to do it. Of
course we have to think a little bit
about the box otticc and if there’s
any opera that's a household name,
us ‘Carmen."‘

Many people may avoid going to
see operas because they are unfa-
miliar with the format and style of
the performances. but Jenness has

anticipated this. She will give a
lecture before the Sunday matinee
performance which will provide
useful information on the produc-
tion.

“It's a very practical lecture."
Jenness said. “(There will be) noth-
ing esoteric — it‘s just to help
people understand the opera and
help them know what arias are
coming up."

Eyeryone involved with "('arr
men" hopes that it will attract
marty first-time opera patrons.

"It's worth checking out just out
ofcuriosity," Davidson said. “It‘s a
good opera to start with if you‘ve
never seen (an opera before) “

Davidson added: “I hope a lot of
students at UK will come it s an

opportunity to see a live opera that
you don’t have very often. This is a
very good experience."

when they meet Tennessee tomorrow

By BARRY REEVES
Sports Editor

Before the season started, the
Tennessee Volunteers, just like
UK, was picked to ﬁnish in the
lower halt of the Southeastern C on-
terence.

Tennessee had lost all five start-
ers from last season. and this year
they were entering the season With
a new coach and seven freshmen.

But the Volunteers are proving a
lot of the sages wrong.

Heading into tomorrow‘s 1:30
p.m. game against UK at

Arena, the Volunteers are tied
with LSU for first in the SEC with
34-1 league record.

“They are the real shockers in the
conference so far this sewon,“ UK
forward Deron Feldhaus said. “I
think they are lot like us because
nobody really expected them to be
very good."

“I knew they were going to be
pretty good, but I had no idea that
they would be in first place,“ Wild-
cat itinior center Reggie Hanson
said

l ix’ coach Rick Pitino isn‘t sur~
prised at :th 'I'ciinessec‘s start.

good athletes. They can play athlet-
ically with any team in the confer-

UK senior guard Derrick Miller
said: “I played against those guys
last year and they have some good
players coming back. (Greg) Bell
and (Allan) Houston are very good
players."

Bell. a 6-3 junior guard, leads the
Volunteers in scoring with a 17.1

per game average. Houston. 1989
Kentucky Mr. Basketball, is second
with a 16.5 average.

“They (Bell and Houston) both
do a real good job for us.” said
first-year Tennessee coach Wade
Houston, who also is Allan‘s fa-
ther.

Because there was a void at the
point guard position, Houston has
been forced to use his son, a 6-5
freshman guard, at that position.

“(Allan) is one of th most valua-
ble players on this team because of
his ball handling,” Houston said.
"We’ve been faced with a lot of
good teams with good quickness
and he’s done a real fine job of pro—
tecting the ball.

“He’s better at the off-guard posi-
tion. but he has the ball-handling
skills we need.”

Pitino has even more praise for
Houston, who was named first
team All-America by most publica-
tions as a senior at Louisville Bal-
lard High School.

“I think he‘s a great player, with
his best days ahead of him," he
said. “I think if he keeps applying
himself and working hard he
will have a bright future in basket-
ball after college."

The main reason Houston was

one of the highest recruited players
out of high school last season was
that he had very few holes in his
game.

“He has a great ability to score
and go to the basket and play de-
fense and handle the ball,” Pitino
said. “He’s just a complete basket-
ball player."

Pitino said the Cats “don’t
match-up with anyone,” but Ten-
nessee’s starting front line is
smaller than his.

To counter UK’s 6-7 front line
of Hanson, Feldhaus and John Pel-
phrey, Tennessee probably start Ian
Lockhart (6-8 senior center), Ron-
nie Reese (6-8 junior forward) and
Steve Rivers (6-4 freshman for-
ward).

“I don’t know a whole lot about
their front line except that they hit
the boards really hard and they are
also very quick," Hanson said.
“And as usual. rebound Will be a
big key in the game. If we can con-
trol the boards, then I think we
have a good chance of winning."

Lockhart is the leader on the in-
terior and averages 12.8 points per
game. His 10.8 rebound average a
game is third in the SEC.

Reese, whose status is questiona-
ble for tomorrow’s game because
