Let's go
home

Doesn’t it really bite the
big one that you are
reading this right
now? Reasons why l
Thanksgiving break I
should start a day or ‘
two earlier:

It already does for most
of the campus. Look
around when you
leave the building. It
is supposed to be a
little more crowded
then this.

Think about those that
live out of state.
Could you imagine
catching a flight
tonight to go home
to a place like
Boston, Chicago, or
Seattle? People.
people everywhere,
and not one that can
think.

When teachers have to
cancel classes behind
the higher-up's
backs, you know
there is a problem.
Most of my friends
are home right now
because their classes
were canceled. Why
not just make it
official and let us all
go home, including
the teachers?

It was nice yesterday.
How fun would it
have been to be
home and playing
football with the
family. Spending
time with family?
What is that?

 

To make you

Relief food bank infested with rats

ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBIA. SC. Rats‘
nests found iii a food warehouse
threatened to leave Thanksgiving
tables short of food for South (‘ar-
olina‘s needy. as food banks iii two
states scrambled to replace 1,000
tons of possibly contaminated items.

The US Agriculture Depart-
ment and the Food and Drug Ad
ministration locked down the af-
fected (‘RK Enterprises warehouse
in Columbia last week. But not be»
fore some items were sent to food
banks in South Carolina arid Char»
Iotte. NC. and on to families
preparing for Thanksgiving.

The Agriculture Department
warned people to destroy any food
bearing a federal label that they re-
ceived through a food batik .

On Monday. one food bank di-

 

rector wondered why it took so
long for inspectors to issue warn-

ings. Denise llollartd. director of

the Harvest Hope Food Bank irt (‘o~
lumbia. said an inspection turned
tip problems at a warehouse last
Tuesday.

“That is the travesty of this."
said “It would have been so rnuclt
better to know this earlier."

State Department of Social
Services spokesman .lerry Adams
said the food banks were told as
soon as his agency learned of the
problem.

Meanwhile. Harvest Hope
raced to find replacement items
during a week that is the food
bank's busiest. During November
anti December. business is up ‘10
percent. Holland said.

A radio station broadcast from
the food bank. tirgitig people to

The Student Nepaper at the University of Kentucky,

bring food attd cash. arid a local
real estate developer promised
316.000 to help buy replacement items.

The potentially-tainted items
all came front the (TRK warehouse
that Social Services uses to
distribute surplus food to smaller
food banks.

Inspectors quarantined ntore
than 150 tons of cantted pork and
other items last Tuesday after find-
irtg the rats' nests and droppings at
the warehouse. Canned items Were
affected because of fears that drop—
pings could have contaminated the
contents if the carts were not
washed properly.

CRK President Maurice Web-
ber said inspectors who checked in
June found no evidence of vermin
at the warehouse. The rats found
last week probably came from
nearby fields to escape the cold
weather. he said.

"'l‘o face a team like

boards iii Monday night’s
rout oftlie Redllawks. Senior
point guard lirica Jackson
was the early sparkplug for
the Cats. as she recorded the
first dozen points of the
game. all on layups.

Rut the Kentucky do
fetise has been iiiipressi\e so
far in the season. according
to Mattox.

“I am very pleased with
our defense.” she said. "That
is something we have been
working very hard on in
practice."

"Coach has really beeii
ephasiziiig our defense in
practice." Meadows said.
"We‘ve really been working a
lot on shutting down tlte oth-

er teatii's offense."

Shutting down the
I'(‘oim offense will not be
easy. The Lady Huskies are a
balanced team. led by junior
:\ll.\meric.'in forward Svet
lana Abrosiiiiova. who aver-
aged 16.6 points. 2.7 steals
and 3.7 assists per gatne last
season. and registered 1.") in

.»\brosiiiiova's versatility
makes her a difficult
iiiatchup for anyone. But
Meadows is confident that
I'K‘s small forwards will
make life difficult for Ahrosi-
mova.

“’l‘hat iiiatchup (Ahrosi-
inova vs. UK sophomore
l.a'l'oii_\a .\Icl)ole) is going to

be a good one to watch."
she said. “Our .‘l-men are able
to guard the post.because
they‘ve got long arms and
they've got good size.
l.a’l‘oiiya‘s tall enough to
match up with her."

(The key area for [K will
be its bench play. The
Huskies go Til-deep in their
rotation. and they substitute
freely to keep players fresh.
similar to the style L'K eni-
ploys.

"I think (freshman
guard) Rita Adams is going to
have to play well. along with

"The bench is going to
have to be incredible for us."
Meadows agreed. “'l‘hey
(I'(‘onn) are so deep. but
we've got plenty of depth
also. It can‘t bejust one per-
son. It‘s got to be the entire
team.“

Regardless of their rank-
ing. Jackson said UK is ap-
proaching tonight‘s game as
ifthey expect to win.

"We came here to win."
she said. "If we come here
with the mentality that.
'Well. they're the No. 1 team
anyway. then we won't have

Now you too
can sing
along to
Adam
Sandler's
Turkey Song

There are many
Thanksgiving
traditions that your
family holds dear,
like watching football
or going crazy at the
department stores'
sales.

We would like for you to
encourage a new
tradition for your
family: Before
digging in to your
feast, bless your food
by singing Adam
Sandler’s Turkey
Song. With the lyrics
printed below, even
Grandma can join in
on the fun!

Love to eat turkey
Love to eat turkey
Love to eat turkey
Cause it's good

Love to eat turkey
Like a good boy should
Cause it's turkey to eat
So good

Turkey for me

Turkey for you

Let's eat the turkey
In my big brown shoe
Love to eat the turkey
At the table

i once saw a movie
With Betty Grable

Eat that turkey

All night long

Fifty million Elvis fans
Can’t be wrong
Turkey turkey doc and
Turkey turkey dap

I eat that turkey

Then I take a nap

 

 

Adam Sandler

Thanksgiving is a special
night

Jimmy Walker used to
say Dynomile'

That's right

Turkey With gravy and
cranberry

Can't believe they
traded Darryl
Strawberry.

Turkey for you and

Turkey for me

Can't believe Tyson

Gave that girl V D.

White meat, dark meat

You just can't lose

I fell off my moped

And i got a brutse

Turkey in the oven

And the buns in the
toaster

I‘ll never take down

My Cheryl Tiegs poster

Wrap that turkey up

In aluminum foil

My brother likes to
masturbate

With baby OlI

Turkey and sweet potato
pie

Sammy DaVIs Jr.

Only had one eye

Turkey for the girls and

Turkey for the boys

My favorite kind of pant

Are corduroys

Gobble gobble goo and

Gobble gobble gickel

l wrsh turkey

Only cost a nickel

0h l love turkey on
Thanksgiving

Wa quick fix

UK athletic alcohol policy needs rework for helping students

Tlerald~Leader that he didn't think there was any real
difference between the drinking habits of students
UK Athletics Director CM.
Newton questioned whether the Cornell study was
even applicable to UK‘s student-athletes.

Then Newton did something indefensible: Last
week. he issued a gag order to all UK athletes and ath-
letic staff that barred them from speaking publicly

The numbers don‘t lie.
