ESTABLISHED 1894

FIITIII‘BS COMMITTEE
lacing critical ISSUES

By Stephen Trimble

Senior Staff” 'ritrr

The 38-inember Futures Com—
mission, a committee examining
UK's Community College Sys-
tem, won't make its recommenda-
tions until at least _lanuary, offi—
cials said Friday.

That means the commission’s
report could be delivered roughly
when the 1996 General Assembly,
which controls the system's hud-
get, convenes in mid—January.

The commission members,
consisting of representatives from
business, media, politics and edu—
cation across Kentucky, met last
Thursday and Friday to start
working on the report.

“I am delighted with this work
session," said Ben Carr, chancellor
of UKCCS and co-chair of the
commission. The other co-chair is
Lexington businessman \Villiani
B. Sturgill, a former UK trustee.

During closed meetings in Lex—
ington’s Radisson Plaza Hotel and
Conference Center on 'l‘hursday
and Friday, the commission
addressed critical issues facing
higher education, Carr said, such
as governance, access, involve~
ment with Kentucky’s Vocational-
Technical institutions and state
and private funding.

“()ne of the most rewarding
aspects ofour time spent together
is that all the members feel the

need to meet again," Carr said.
“They want more time for study
and discussion prior to making
recommendations."

The commission members also
worked on preparing a draft vision
statement for the community col~
leges, reaching past the year 2000,
Carr said.

During an evening presentation
to the commission on Thursday,
UK President Charles \Vething—
ton said a shortage of ftinding for
community colleges continues to
hinder the progress of the state's
H community colleges.

Last ’l‘uesday, [’K’s Board of
Trustees passed a resolution sup—
porting the role ofthe community
colleges and reaffirmed “its com—
mitment to the Community Col-
lege System."

UK board Chairman former
Gov. Edward T. “Ned" Breathitt,
also affirmed UK's interest in
what the commission proposes for
the community colleges.

“\Ve intend to listen and he
guided by the work of this com—
mission," Breathitt said during a
news conference at the Radisson
Friday morning.

The commission last met in
198‘) and came up with l l recom—
mendations for UK’s system. Nine
ofthose were directed at the coin—
niunity colleges and two recom-
mendations were aimed at the
General Assembly.

ment Association hosted the first—
tiine event at a muddy Seaton

“Student votes are very impor—
tant, especially in an election that
will be this close,” \Varnccke said.

“The student votes may deter
mine the outcome of this elecr
tion.u

.\lthough the turnout for the
friendly competition was small,
the political spirit of the day ran
high.

Before the competition start—
ed, Chairman of the College
Republicans David Samford was
very optimistic about Republican
participation when he said, “l
think it's gonna be like the elec—
tions ~—a (K )P landslide."

lnvob ed in this year's Political

Democrats and Democratic stip—
porters oftbc Lambda organiza—
tion and the College Republicans.

The first part of the day con—
sisted of preliminary events. The
winners earned a trip to the finals.

During the finals, fifth—year
architect major and Lambda
member ’l‘homas ()wens won the
horseshoe event.

“I feel grcatl l feel like a

Democrat . .1 winner." ()wens
said.

.-\lthougb the Democrats won
the first event, the Republicans
were not ready to back down.

Les johns, a political science
junior, lost the horseshoe throw
said, “The competition was
tough, hilt we will prevail over
all."

The contest continued with
the frisbce throw. in which
Republican _lim l’annin bested
Democrat .\lorgain Sprague.

Hazing violations cause move

By Brenna Reilly
Nrwt Editor

A social fraternity with a ‘)-lryear histor
ry at the University has been forced off
campus for three years following hazing
violations.

Dean of Students David Stockham
confirmed that a disciplinary action was
taken against Kappa Sigma. but Stockham
would not comment on the details investi~
gation or the decision.

“The investigation was for hazing,"
said Todd Fisher, Inter—fraternity Council
president, who confirmed that the frater-
nity would be removed from the campus.

Fisher said IFC was not involved in the
investigation because hazing is a violation
of the Student Code of Conduct, so the
investigation was handled by the Dean of
Student's office.

A fraternity has 30 days to appeal the
ruling. Fraternities maintain their on-
campus status until the appeals process is
complete, Stockham said.

“\Vhenever an action is under appeal
the action is suspended until the fortnal
appeal is finished,“ Stockham said.

Kappa Sigma President Matt Maullcr
would not comment on the sanctions.

“\‘."e are looking into our options as to
what has happened," .\lauller said.

;\ fraternity has 30 days to appeal the
decision to the Vice Chancellor for Stu~
dent .‘\ffairs_lames Kuder, Stockham said

Ktider could make a iudgment and sus»
taiti the action or amend the sanctions,
Stockham said. The decision by Ktider
could be appealed to the University
Appeals Board, which is made up of facul~
ty, staff and students.

After hearing the case, the Appeals
Board makes a recommendation to Chan—
cellor for the Lexin rton Campus Elisa-
beth Zinser, who makes the final decision
regarding disciplinary sanctions. '

Kappa Sigma has been in its house in
the six~pack on South Campus since the
mid-1950s and has 80 members, Mauller
said.

NAtIoN Senators urge

\\i.\Sl ll\(i'l ( )N Senators should avoid the
political sniping between tht \Vhitc House and

same divisions that haw led to President Clinton
promising to veto the ( it )P proposal to balance the

Medicare and Medicaid spending while affecting a

The House and Senate last week both passed
their huge packages of tax and spending cuts and
are to begin talks this week on working otit differ~

'l‘hese days it isn’t the kids
running to the stores at the last
minute for the perfect costume,
but the adults, said Shane Hin-
kle, assistant manager at llal-
loween l‘ixpress in Fayette Mall.

“Halloween has grown to be a
major holiday and it is the sec—
ond—biggest holiday next to
Christmas,” Hinkle said. “This
year there are more parties
going on and adults are waiting
until the last minute to get a cos—
tume."

Many UK students who are
into the spirit of Halloween
head to costume stores like Off
Broadway Costutnes located on
Southland Drive to transform
themselves into another person.

Some of the costumes that
have been popular with UK stu-
dents have been flappers or
gangsters, a pig farmer, a beer
can, storybook characters,
pirates, Raggedy Ann and Andy,
medieval characters and the
Three Musketeers, said seam-
stress Amy Berry for Off Broad—
way Costumes.

Aside from renting costumes,
students and adults have been
able to purchase make-up kits
and accessories to add the final
touches to their new look.

Dressing up, going to parties,
watching scary movies and pass—
ing out candy are some of the
ways that students spend their
holiday since they’re too old to
trick or treat.

Since Halloween has become
a little unsafe for kids to trick—
or—treat door-to-door outside,
Blanding IV has come tip with a
safe way to allow kids to still
trick—or—treat and not feel left
out ofthe holiday spirit.

“Last year we had a large
turnout of kids who were ecstat—
ic about being able to trick-or—
treat," said education senior
Beth Moore.

“The program was set up by
Big Brothers and Big Sisters and
allowed the kids a very safe way
to trick—or—trcat and the parents
to enjoy themselves," Moore
said.

Moore said that this will be
the second year Blanding [V will
be having kids trick—or—treat in
the building.

Fiji looking for Winter coats

Fraternity needs

more donations

By Aaron 0. Hall
Staff ll 'rirrr

Lexington kids will have warm
winter wear this winter thanks to a
UK social fraternity.

Members of Phi Gamma Delta
spent Saturday and Sunday at
three Lexington Kroger stores
collectinrr coats for kids.

The fraternity collected about
300 coats. Eighty were donated at
the Kroger sites. Last week,
Maxwell Elementary donated 186
coats.

“Coats for Kids" project Chair—
man Brad Blakeman was “a little
disappointed" with the amount of
coats collected at the Kroger
stores, but he was happy overall.

“\Ve're pleased with the suc-
cess," Blakeman said. “\Ve antici-
pated getting 200."

Phi (iamma Delta member
john Carpenter, who worked at
the Kroger on Alexandria Drive,
also was disappointed with the
collection. After spending almost
three hours in the back of a pick—

up truck on Sunday, the only
donation he receiver was a five-
dollar bill.

“Publicity wasn’t what we
thought it would be,” Carpenter
said of the public service
announcements.

For next year, he said that fra—
ternity may choose to work only
in conjunction with schools.

Last week, the Phi

Major core commanding offi—
cer of Lexington’s Salvation Anny
Philip DeMichael said coats are
available to everyone.

“\Ve want to see that everyone
gets a coat,” DeMichael said.

He encourages anyone who
needs a coat to come by the Salva-
tion Army.

 

(iamma Deltas held a
competition at Maxwell
Elementary.

The homeroom that
donated the most coats
received a pizza party.

“In four days, we col—
lected 186 coats," said

 

if

WE want to see
that everyone
gets a coat. ”

“No names are
taken. No money is
taken."

Last year,

DeMichael said that
2,000 coats were dis—
tributed in Kentucky.

“\Ve had a num-
ber of missions to

year, Carpenter thinks it the commanding

 

“may easily get 1,000
coats.“

To show their appreciation to
Maxwell, Fiji members worked
stands at Maxwell’s carnival Fri-
day.

Once all the coats are collected,
they are taken to a dry cleaner and
then given to the Salvation Army

officer said.

Even though donations at
Kroger locations were not as suc-
cessful as anticipated, Fiji Matt
Gatts said, “At least we're getting
the name out for next year.”

Those still wanting to donate
coats can drop them off at the Fiji
house at 653 Maxwelton Court.

The UK women’s soccer team
closed out the regular season yes-
terday with a 3-0 victory over
Evansville at Cage Field.

The win gave the Cats, who
defeated Creighton 1-0 Saturday,
the title in the UK Soccer
Classic.

The two weekend victo-
ries raised the team's over-
all record to 14-6, the best
finish in the program’s
five-year history.

The Wildcats‘ next
action comes Friday in the

Southeastern Conference Landrum

 

games.
Several other Cats stood out in
the weekend tournament.
Freshman goalkeeper Carrie
Kuhnell, who replaced Ashley
Miller midway through the sea-
son, recorded her fourth consecu—
tive shutout and was named tour
nament NIVP.
“Every game I gain
more confidence,” said
Kuhnell, who has totaled
six blanks on the year. “I
can remember how I
- played eight game ago. My
confidence level is just
totally different. I used to

STARKVILLE, Miss. — UK
head coach Bill Curry felt some
confidence bringing his rejuve—
nated \Vildcats to Mississippi
State, which had struggled the
past month and hadn’t won a
Southeastern Conference game.

UK (3-5, 2—4 in the SEC),
which had bounced back from
an 0-2 start, seemed on its way

“\\’e stopped them when we
needed to stop them and made
things happen," said Bulldogs
defensive lineman Larry
\Villiams.

Mississippi State tailback Kef—
fer McGee rushed for 127 yards
on 29 carries. His third TD, a 1-
yard run with 4:51 left, broke a
32-52 tie and ended a 57—yard
drive that began with his 40-yard
run.

UK’s women Catfish over-
came a small deficit midway
through yesterday’s dual meet to
pull away from the visiting South
Carolina squad 166—132.

The Gamecocks burst out
early, leading 76-75, after eight of
16 events.

South Carolina exploited
UK’s lack of depth in the sprint
races, winning the most points in
all five events.

But the Catfish made up for
the Gamecocks advantage later
in the meet during the distance
categories, led by freshman

 

 

 

Emily Glass and sophomore
Leigh Dalton.

Dalton, a U.S. Olympic trials
qualifier, took first place in the
1,000-yard freestyle and the 500-
yard freestyle, while Glass nearly
set team records in the ZOO-yard
breast stroke and 400-yard med—
ley.

“I wanted to do well,” Glass
said, who finished just more than
a second away from breaking
UK's 400—yard medley record. “I
didn‘t think I'd do that well.“

UK swimming coach Gary
Conelly appreciated Glass' effort,
but wasn't satisfied with the final
score.

“To be honest, I thought we’d

beat them a little worse than
this," Conelly said, shortly after
the last event wrapped up UK’s
third dual meet victory this sea—
son, and second win of this week-
end.

UK (3—2) routed an inexperi-
enced Louisville team 147-76 at
UK's Harry C. Lancaster Aquat—
ic Center Friday night.

The Gamecocks put in a poor
performance playing at Ten—
nessee earlier this week, and
Conelly figured the team would
be in poorer spirits entering Lex-
ington.

“I think they figured we were
the team they could beat in the
Southeastern Conference."
Conelly said.

Meanwhile, UK's diving team
dismantled the Gamecocks in
both the one—meter and three-
meter springboard events.

Catfish sophomore Beth
Leake beat her nearest competi—
tor — Gamecock Michelle
Suozzi — by more than 30 points
on the one—meter dive. UK
senior Tina Johnson beat her
nearest competitor on the three—
meter dive —— UK's Leake — by
more than 51 points.

“I think they’re headed for
success," Conelly said. “The
pressure kept coming on and
they all stepped up to it."

This weekend, the men's team
is headed for competition at

 

 

for any chance
at a bowl invi—
tation, runnin
all over State’s
defense and
building a 25-
22 halftime
lead.

But a
tougher State
defense
emerged after
halftime, shut-
ting down UK
running back
Moe Williams
in a 42—32 victory Saturday that
snapped a four-game losing
streak.

Curry said the \Vildcats
“should have been in control of
the game.”

“In the second half, we simply
didn't stop them and when we
did get them stopped and get the
ball, we didn't move the ball
with consistency and score
points," Curry said.

The Cats also were plagued
by a number of costly errors.
PunterJimmy Carter had a kick
blocked and returned for a
touchdown in the first quarter.
UK also missed two extra points
and had a number of passes from
quarterback Billy Jack Haskins
dropped.
