His plan protest at Patterson tlttice Tower

By Kathy Radlng
New Editor

They began with chalk drawings, balloons and
black streamers. Now they are going to whistle.

Graduate student teaching assistants have orga-
nized a protest rally to “blow the whistle on budget
mismanagement” at noon today. The protest will be
held at the Patterson Ofﬁce Tower plaza, according
to ﬂiers, despite a request by Dean of Students David
Stockham that they hold it at the Free Speech Area
adjacent to the Student Center.

“The University asked us to move to the Free
Speech Area, but it's too late now for us to change
our plans,” said Curtis Bowman, an English graduate
student and member of the UK Organization of
Graduate Students. Stockham said the plaza is not an
authorized location for a rally and that protesters can
be asked relocate the rally.

Merrie Winfrey, a graduate student and member

of UKOGS, said members of the group have con
tacted UK Police and the American Civil Liberties
Union about holding the demonstration at the plaza.

“\Ve are within our rights if it is not blocking the
way or creating a disturbance," \\'rnfrey said.

Stockham said events that start out srrrall can
become larger and disruptive. making the area by the
Student Center better.

Elisabeth 7.inser, chancellor for the Lexington
campus, said the University wants students to
express themselves, but do so within guidelines.

“It's important that students know that and
understand what the University policies are and that
they do so based on having good information."
Zinser said.

Bowman said protesters will blow whistles for 10
ruinutes at the start ofthe rally to draw attention to
their displeasure with reductions in UK's budget.
\Vhile the new UKUGS is not the sole organizer of
the irotest, it helped foster the idea among graduate
students, \\'infrey said. Last week‘s chalk drawings.

i gives men
place to turn

By Rich Cook
StaﬂWﬁtv

A car ago, I was a successful businessman. I owned my
own gainer: and made $5 0, 000 a year. Then my wiﬁ got
sick. The insurance company mid her condition wax “pre-
exirting, " so they refused to cover hospital bills. I started a
recondjob to make the bill: each month, but we just got
deeper and deeper into debt. Finally, the doctor: released
my wife because they couldn’t do anything elxe for her. I
spent .to much time curingfor her that my business failed.
Bills continued to mount. My wife’s condition took a turn
ﬁir the worse and within a week she died. Funeral expense:
took what little roving: I had left. Last week, the bank
foreclosed on my house time I hadn’t made a payment in
almost a year. Now what? Where do I go? I can ’t get on
welfare become I 'm able to work, but no one will hire me
without a permanent address. I jun don’t know where I’m
going to go

he above is a conglomeration of stories about
how successful people suddenly ﬁnd themselves
homeless.

Where indeed? Where do people turn when life
deals them a bad hand?

For many years, Lexington had no place for a sin-
gle male to go for housing or even food. In 1980, sev-
eral downtown churches began running a soup
kitchen that, in 1985, evolved into the Horizon Cen-
ter, a da center for homeless people. New services
were of ered, including mental health counseling,
shower and restroom facilities and employment
advising.

The volunteers at the churches wondered where
the men who frequented the Horizon Center were

oing at night. In 1990, the Mayor’s Task Force on

omelessness was formed to study the problem in
Lexington and Fa ettc County. The next year saw
the completion 0 plans by the Lexington-Fayette
Urban County Government for the construction of a
new facility to provide further for the needs of the
homeless single man.

The Hope Center, located at 360 W. Loudon
Ave., opened in June 1993 with a total of 116 beds.
The center can sleep an additional 55 men on mat-
tresses on the floor. All 171 spaces were full the ﬁrst
night.

The center also provides food, access to social ser-
vices, counseling, 2 health care clinic garovided by
the UK College of Nursing), a detoxi cation pro-
gram on site, mental health services, and education
and job training opportunities.

Many UK organizations and UK students volun-
teer at the Hope Center, including Alpha Phi
Omega, 2 co—ed service fraternity. Ceres social soror-
ity also serves meals at the Hope Center several times

a month. Those interested in volunteering or donat-
ing can call Louise Bieschke, community relations
manager at the Hope Center, at 252—7881.

But who are the men who seek help from the
Hope Center?

“Homeless people don’t just fall out of the sky,"
Bieschke said. ,

These men may not have control over the tragedy,
she said, but through the Hope Center programs
they are able to begin rebuildin r their lives.

Many of these men turn to afcohol to warm them-
selves on the cold, wet nights. A few ﬁnd their way to
the Hope Center and are able to take advantage of
the programs offered to help them get back on their
feet.

The process begins with Intake, an interview con-
ducted by Janet Monaco with the new resident.
Needs are assessed and Monaco tries to guide the
men into a program she feels will beneﬁt them most.

The men are placed in various programs or have
the choice of remaining in general )opulation. Dur—
ing the day these men must vacate t e premises. This
push is to encoura e them to ﬁnd work. Program
participants have cfasses and meetings throughout
the day.

program and the only one of its kind in Lexington or

Students to have voice in recreation lee increase

By Gary Walt
Amtiatr New: Editor

When election week rolls around students will
vote on whether or not they support the idea of a
student campus recreation fee.

If students vote in favor of the fee, rep-
resentatives from the Student Govern-
ment Association will give the results to
the Board of Trustees said Executive
Director of Campus Affairs Melanie Cruz
in a senate meeting last ni ht.

The fee would pay w0r ers to keep the
recreational facilities, such as Seaton Cen-
ter, open during the weekends and
improve the facilities. Campus recreation does not
receive an student funding.

“We cl there needs to be input from the stu-
dents,” Cruz said.

Possibl , if a campus recreation fee was added, the
intramura team fee would be waived, she said.

Senator at large Bob Brown said improvement of

3 t

the facilities could improve UK's low retention rates.
“The facilities on campus are overused and this is
the minimal funding these facilities need,” Brown
said.
He said the fee would be $2.50 per semester.
Freshman senator Andee McElya supported the
bill because of the limited access of Alumni
Gym on North Campus.
“1 think that is ridiculous, and I think it is
something students need to have,” she said.
Earlier in the evening the senate passed
three fundin bills totaling $4,380.
The Wiltfcat Danzers re uested $1,980
__ to purchase new uniforms (for the NCAA
National Dance Competition in April.
Senator at large Joe Schuler said the team works
extremely hard and receives no funding from the
unrverstty. ,
Wildcat Danzer Tiffany Timmons said her team
is favored to win the national competition this year.
Cats for Christ asked SGA to pay for transporta—
tion in Dallas while the group does missionary work

in the inner city during Spring Break. The bill asked
for $1,400.

“This is not a trip," said bill sponsor Alizha Rice,
senator at large. “What better advocacy for the Uni-
versity of Kentucky is there than these people giving
up their time and strength.”

Jessica Stewart, .1 member of Cats for Christ, said
the group will help at a medical center, after-school
tutoring and sell food to the needy and homeless at a
discount store.

The UK Percussion Society received a $1,000 for
partial funding of percussionist Richie Garcia's per-
formance March 27. The fundin allowed the soci-
ety to set up an Afro~(luban worishop and concert
w ich is free to the public.

Percussion Society president Roger Holland said
the worksho will pre tare students for the future of
the music in ustry an a world of diversity.

Senator at large Jon “Devo” Dvorak supported
the bill.

“I think it's about the best thing we could spend a
$1,000 on,” he said. The bill passed unanimously.

STATE Four lly. men
survive crash landing

llL'N'l‘SVllJF. Ala. ~~ Four Kentucky men
survived a crash landing of their small plane after
it ran out of gas for unknown reasons.

Pilot l.ee lligginbotham, a flight instructor in
Louisville. Ky.. said he switched tanks when he
realized the problem during his flight late Monday
and radioed the Huntsville airport for guidance to
the nearest landing strip. None were close
enough, and the second fuel tank of the Cessna
183 began petering out.

1 ligginbotham said that's when he spotted Tri-
ana lionlenrrd in southwest lluntsvillc and decid—
ed to put down there. On the way in, he narrowly
missed several power lines and a natural gas meter.

:\ chainahnk fence sheared the right wing ofthe
plane as it crash-landed 50 feet from a house about
7-4; pm. lliuginbotham suffered a broken amt
and his friend Dennis Thurman had broken ribs,
but the only other injuries were scrapes and bruis-
es. lligginbotham, Thurman, Phil Kane and Lou
Durall were returning to Louisvrlle after a golfing
trip to Destin, Fla.

flll criticized tor case handling

\VASl llNG'H ).\' 7— The Justice Depart-
ment's inspector general criticized FBI lab proce—
dures and said a lab witness overstated test results
during a trial about the mail-bomb killings of a
federal judge and a civil rights lawyer, The Associ—
ated Press learned yesterday.

The 1991 conviction of \Valter Leroy Moody
for the murder of US. Circuit Judge Robert S.
Vance and Georgia civil rights lawyer Robert E.
Robinson was a major accomplishment of FBI
Director LouisJ. Freeh, who prosecuted the case
while still a Justice Department lawyer.

The Associated Press obtained access yesterda
to a portion of the inspector general‘s secret draft,
report, produced in response to allegations by sus—
pended FBI scientist-agent Frederic Whitehurst
and other federal ofﬁcers.

Mlllll liltiellts 88k to hell) lltll Inhalers

VVASHIN ‘xTON —— The government asked
asthma atients and their doctors for help yester-
day in plhnnin how to radually pull off the mar-
ket certain ast ma inha ers that hurt the environ-
ment.

Patients shouldn't panic, the Food and Dru
Administration emphasized, because no drugs wiﬁ
be banned for well over a year.

But as the FDA a proves asthma inhalers that
do not use CFCs, t e chlorofluorocarbons that
deplete the ozone layer, an international treaty
requires the old, polluting inhalers to be (phased
out. The FDA sought advice on how to 0 that
without threatenin patients’ conﬁdence.

“The metered—time inhalers we currently have
have been mod old friends,” said Dr. lra Fine-
gold, prcsirfent of the American College of Aller-
gy, Asthma and Immunology. But “they certainly
destroy the ozone layer, and as such they have to
come off the market sooner or later.”

former maid was settled yesterday. awyers
wouldn‘t disclose details when they announced
the end of a lawsuit ﬁled by Sylvia McDermott,
who accused Diana of unfairly dismissin her on
short notice after nine years of cleaning ensing-

“I'm pleased it's all over. It's been horrible. I’m
really pleased with the outcome,” McDermott said
as she left a courtroom. Diana wasn’t in court.
Mishcon dc Re 2, her London law ﬁrm, said she
was “delighted by the settlement. The ﬁrm said
in a statement that McDermott settled for much
less money than she originally demanded.

makes it simple. '

“Kids \\ ant instant succcss,” he
said. “You need to make it simple
for them to get that feeling ofsuc-
cess But he needs to experience
a little failure or he’s not going to
be willing to change much.”

\Vhatever coaching style he has

Manning decides TD remain at Tennessee

By Tom Sharp

Associated Pram

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Ten-
nessee quarterback Peyton Man-
ning said yesterday he will return
for his senior season, bypassin an
early jump to the NFL in w ich
he likely would have been the top
draft choice.

“I made up my mind and I
don’t expect to ever look back,"
Manning told a news conference.
“I am going to stay at the Univer-
sity of Tennessee.

“As difﬁcult as it has been I
knew I couldn’t make a bad deci—

and its non-conference home
schedule. The riﬂe team has faced
each of the top ﬁve teams in dual
meets. beating them all.

“(Coaches
don’t) want to jinx
themselves before
a big match,”
Mullins said. “But
I have to say that
we’ve got great
talent.”

The talent lies
in the leadership
from the team's seniors.

Erik Anderson, Owen Blake-
more and Mike Boggs will be re -
resentin UK in both the air riﬂe
and sma lbore team competitions.
Sophomore Mary Elsass also joins

sion. But I knew whatever deci-
sion I made had to be my own
decision and nobody else’s."

He thanked his parents, Archie
and Olivia Manning, for their sup-
port.

Archie Manning, former Mis-
sissippi and New Orleans Saints
q‘parterback, has ﬁelded' most of
t e media calls for his son for the
last two months.

Peyton Manning said there was
no one factor that led to his deci-
sion, which he slept on last ni rht.

“This past week, I felt all the
pieces of the puzzle ﬁt together,"

he said. ‘

they ttavel to Murray, Ky., to
com te.

“ hey know; the way it works,"
Mullins said of the four UK team-
mat 5 who all were competitors at
last ar’s championships.

Boggs and Anderson were also
on the l99§team that won the
NCAA air riﬁ national title.

Three of the shooters have a
chance at an individual title.
Anderson is going for titles in
both the smallbore and air riﬂe,
while Boggs and Iilsass have quali—
ﬁed for air riﬂe.

Elsass has been on a hot streak
as of late, shooting a school-

record 1 184 out ofa possible score
of 1200.

He said the hiring of Bill Par-
cells as coach of the New York
jets -— the team with the top draft
'pick -— tempted him to jump to
the NFL, but he decided against
It.

“I had been pretty intent on
staying until I found out that Bill
Parcells would be coach of the
New York jets. I have a lot of
respect for him,” he said.

Manning said he researched his
decision by talking to other pro—
fessional athletes, including
Michael Jordan, Troy Aikman,
Phil Simms and Drew Bledsoe.

“That’s a hard act to follow!"

NCAA agrees to
llliA’s penalties f

Atrociatrd Pres:

ATHENS, Ga. —— Georgia’s football tearr‘was
placed on probation for two years yesterday by the
NCAA, though it will be able to appear in bowl
games and on television.

In an unusual move, the NCAA acce ted Geor-
gia's self-imposed penalties for footbalFrecruiting
violations, and the main sanction will be a loss of ﬁve
scholarships next season.

In 28 previous cases in which schools imposed
their own penalties, the NCAA ordered additional
sanctions 27 times.

“If you look at the penalties Georgia proposed,
they were pretty meaningful,” said avid Swank,
chairman of the NCAA Committee on Infractions.
“Georgia looked at what we’ve done in other cases
and thou ht this is the kind of penalties the commit-
tee woul come up with.”

The committee announced its decision during a‘
conference call from Overland Park, Kan.

Georgia’s self-imposed penalties included a
reduction of ﬁve new scholarships during the 1997-
98 school year, with the overall number of scholar—
ships not to exceed 79. In 1998—99, there would be
no reduction in initial scholarships and overall schol-
arshi 5 could not exceed 82.

T e school also agreed to reduce the number of
expense—paid campus visits by otential players ——-
from 56 to 48 next season
