SGA passes everything before vocal audience

Senate recommends $1 fee increase

Condom distribution favored
25-10 despite vocal opposition

By (A. DIANE BONIFEH
Associate Editor

The Student Government Associa-
tion overwhelmingly passed a reso-
lution last night calling for the dis
tribution of condom vending
machines in the basement rest
rooms of six dormitories.

SGA President Cyndi Weaver said
she plans to call Art Gallaher. chan-
cellor for the Lexington campus.
today and see if he or UK President
David ltoselle will address the issue.

"My fear is tthe administration)
will slow it down and smother it."
Weaver said.

(iallaher said the issue would
probably go to James Kuder. vice
chancellor for student affairs.

“It depends on what decision Dr.
Kuder wants to make." he said. “I
have nothing involved with this."

SGA Senator at Large David Bot-
kins. the legislation‘s primary spon-
sor. called the approval of the reso-
lution “a major legislative victory.
It‘s a victory for the concern about
the health of the students.“ he said.

"UK has just taken a step into the
21st century." Botkins said.

The resolution passed by a 25-10
margin. but not without more than
1‘: hours of heated debate between
SGA senators and student organiza-
tions in the basement of Blazer Hall.

Most of the disagreement centered
on the third plank of the resolution.
which calls for the actual distribu-
tion of condoms on campus.

Professor
gets money
for research

By CONSTANCE DIANE CLARK
Contributing Writer

A 510.000 grant was recently
awarded to David M. Olster, a histo-
ry and Honors Program professor.
The grant is from the American
Council of Learned Societies.

The grant is one of three awarded
in the last three years to a member
of the history department.

Olster is planning to use the grant
for research for a book on “political
repercussions of usurpation on an
autocratic society." Olster will focus
on the instability of Phocas. a By-
zantine usurper. and will emphasize
how history is biased by the person
reporting it.

“History is a means by which peo-
ple understand themselves as a
state.“ Olster said.

Olster said the. manner in which
the book is written can be used to
relate to the past as well as the pre-
sent and boils down to “a modern
political issue."

Many of ()lster‘s students feel he
is deserving of the grant and will
use it in collecting valuable bits of
history.

“Not only is he a very competent
teacher. but he is also an interesting
and amiable guy.“ commented Suzy
Ruark. one of Olster‘s honors stu-
dents.

Olster would like his book to help
others “come to an understanding of
how fragile the truth of history is
and to learn to see through the bias
of the past. (and to realize) that the
significance of this understanding is
fundamental to democracy as we
know it."

He is a graduate of the University
of California at Berkley.

Opponents of the resolution said
the resolution would send a message
to the community that the Universi-
ty condones sexual promiscuity.

Engineering Senator Jeff Good-
year said SGA should be telling stu-
dents to "say no to sex."

“I believe that when we put those
machines in the dorms. no matter
how honorable our position may be.
we are condoning sex.“ he said. “I
would like to see this student body
promote abstinence. Why settle for
second best '.’“

Senator at Large Mary Beth
Brookshire said that society‘s appro-
val of sexual promiscuity demands
that UK “starts changing reality."

“If ever there is a time we need
ideals we need it now for the good of
the society.“ she said.

But Senator at Large Susan Broth-
ers argued that reality. not morali-
ty. should be the senate‘s main con-
cern.

"It‘s not morality anymore; we‘re
bigger than that.“ she said. “People
are not perfect. humanity is not per-
fect. l don‘t want to feel that I had
the chance to prevent someone from
dying."

Proponents of the resolution
showed evidence of campus support.
including several petitions from stu~
dents and letters from college deans
and students. Opponents countered
by calling on several religious
groups to speak out against it.

Senator Betty Reed said that 90 of 93

each semester to fund radio station

By JAY BLANTON
Executive Editor

Most of the attention at the Stu-
dent Government Associatioii meet-
ing last night focused on the senate's
controversial and often heated de-
bate about condoms.

But one issue caused little contro-
versy as the senate unanmiously
voted to recommend to the UK
Board of Trustees that student activ-
ites fees be raised by $1 each semes-
ter to fund a student-run radio sta-
tion at UK.

In other action. the SGA senate by
a large majority passed a bill that
will require mandatory office hours
for senators for this year only.

that has been trying to form a radio

lished Tuesday showing that about

Senator at Large Susan Brothers
said that the fee increase w as
needed for the station to go on the

air and that it was important for the
senate to take a strong stand so that
Weaver could go to the BUT with the
full backing of the senate.

Seekers of No. 2 state post say they’ll cut perks

By CHARLES WOLFE
Associated Press

The candidates for Kentucky lieu-
tenant governor proposed yesterday
night to squeeze some tax savings
from the very office they seek by
trimming its oftencriticized perks.

In a televised debate with his Re-
publican opponent. lawrence
Webster, Democratic nominee Bre-
reton C. Jones said “certain econ-
omies“ were possible. particularly
in the amounts spent to operate the
lieutenant governor's mansion in

Frankfort and to provide 11 Ken-
tucky State Police officers to guard
the Officeholder and his family.

When asked how often he would
use the state‘s Sikorsky helicopter if
elected. Jones said: “I would much
prefer to drive."

Webster said during the program
on Kentucky Educational Television
that he would not live in the man-
sion. but would stay in Pikeville,
where he is an attorney. In an inter-
view later. he said he might live
with his mother in his native Owen
County. 25 miles from the capital.

 

By MARK R. (‘HELLGREN
Associated Press

FRANKFORT — Gav. Martha
Layne Collins yesterday officially
summoned the General Assembly
into special session to deal solely
with the workers‘ compensation
program.

the five-page proclamation
specifies those portions of the
workers‘ compensation law that
lawmakers may address, but.
accordiru to legislative leaders,

 

Session on workers’ comp called

is also broad enough to allow pro-
posals other than the one favored
by the governor.

“It gives direction. but it
doesn‘t limit input or debate."
said House Speaker Don Bland-
ford.D—Philpot.

Home Majority Floor Leader
Greg Stumbo. a Prestmsburg
la . had complained earlier
that a draft of the call was too re-
strictive. Stumbo and other cool-
field legislators are unhappy with

the bill pushed by the administra-
tion.

Stumbo said he would consider
filing a lawsuit if the g0vernor's
call limited the legislature’s op-
tions on workers‘ compensation.

Stumbo could not be reached
for comment yesterday.

But other legislative leaders
say the votes are in line in the
Home and Senate to pass the leg-
islation drafted primarily by Sen.
Ed O‘Daniel. DSpringfield.

Sec SPECIAL. Page 5

 

 

“Those people drive to Frankfort
every day to work. I'm no better
than they are." Webster said.

Webster said during the debate
that the lieutenant governor‘s office
is costly because its holder is always
running for governor. He also noted
that Jones has already declared his
intention to seek the governorship if
he is elected to the No.2 post.

In another jab at Jones. Webster
said candidates should be barred
from loaning their campaigns more

than the maximum amount for indi-
vidual contributions I~ currently
$4.(X)0.

Jones. a horse breeder. farmer
and businessman from Woodford
County. has spent $1.6 million from
his personal fortune. But he said it
was the only way a private citizen
could compete with “professional
politicians" such as the four office-
holders he defeated in the Demo-
cratic primary.

Both candidates denied they had

distanced themselves from their
parties‘ gubernatorial nominees —
Democrat Wallace Wilkinson and
Republican John Harper.

Jones touted his proposals for ag~
ricultural marketing and promotion
of “made in Kentucky" farm prod-
ucts and questioned what Webster
had done for farmers.

Webster said he would try to ”get
farmers back to a culture of farm-
ing as a way of life “

Harper to speak on campus today

By JULIE ESSELMAN
Contributing Writer

Republican gubernatorial candi-
date John Harper will be on campus
to address students today at 4 pm.
in 206 Old Student Center. Harper‘s
visit is sponsored by the UK College
Republicans.

Vaughn Murphy. chairman of the
College Republicans. said there is no
set topic for Harper‘s talk. which
will last about an hour. It will proba-
bly consist of a general campaign
address and time for questions from
students.

Harper. a former Louiiwitie native
who now resides in Bullit County. at-

tended the University of Louisville.
He is currently Chief Executive Offi-
cer of Powered Pipe/Marsan Cor-
poration. Harper has served in the
Kentucky House of Representatives
since 1985.

He is generally considered to be
the underdog in the race for gover-
nor against Democrat Wallace Wil-
kinson. Murphy said Harper‘s main
obstacle is recognition.

Murphy hopes that more publicity
from the press and a final debate
with Wilkinson will help Harper be-
come mire wellknown.

Many people seem to be receptive
to Harper. Murphy said. “it sur-

prised me how favorable people
were to him." Murphy said at a re-
cent registration drive on campus.

Murphy supports Harper's opposi~
tion to a state lottery. citing it as a
regressive tax that would be a “-bur
den on Kentucky." He added that he
believes Harper has a “more
thoughtful approach to Kentucky
politics" than Wilkinson,

This visit will be the last from
Harper that the UK College Republi-
cans will sponsor. but Murphy said
they hope he will return to cam-
paign on campus before the Novem-
bereiections.

Happy talk

Lexington comedy club provides humorous relief, keeps audience in stitches

By WILL RENSHAW
Staff Writer

A single microphone stands to one
side of a smokey room lit only by a
solitary spotlight. People sit closely
around small tables. Such is the at-
mosphere of the comedy club.

Until last April, it you lived in
Lexington. you were excluded from
this setting. But thanks to Jeff and
Pete Gillstrap, founders of the
newlyopened Comedy on Broadway.
lx-xington can new experience what
Jeff calls "a great release. "

"You can‘t be serious 24 hours a
day. Jobs are more intense and col-
leges are harder to get into than be-
fore. and people need to laugh and
have a good time." Jeff said. “Com-
edy provides a perfect release. It's
nothing but good psychology."

Jeff came up with the idea for the
club while he was living in West Vir—
ginia. “i went to see Jay Leno with
a friend. and from then on i was

— . ' t

hooked,“ he said. “I was going to
comedy clubs twice a week."

“One day I called my brother and
asked him if he thought opening a
comedy club here would go, just
kind of as a joke,“ he said. “After
about a year. I started getting se-
rious about it."

Such is the beginning of Comedy
on Broadway, located at 144 N.
Broadway St.

The bar opened on April 1 of this
year and was an immediate success.
“We expected to start out slow and
build," Jeff said. “We thought that
once people came in and saw the
caliber of comedy we have here,
they‘d start to come back. But it im-
mediately took off. We were turning
people away.“

Comedy on Broadway took off so
well, that of the 28 shows in July, 21
were sold out.

At first the Gillstraps questioned
Lexington's ability to support a com-
edy club. According to Jeff, it takes

“Comedy on Broadway is perfect for first dates,
because you can see what she laughs at, so
you can see what you can get away with saying

on the way home."

Jeff Glllstrap,

Comedy on Broadway co-owner
—

a large city to keep a club of this
sort in business. Most of the 230 suc-
cessful clubs in the United States
are in or around heavily populated
areas.

“We were concerned with the size
of Lexington, but after a lot of re-
search, we realized that Lexington
is weird," Jeff said. “it's small in
population, but it draws widely be-
cause of shopping and business. The
population base is wider than the
census might say."

“it. may be small, but this town
loves comedy," national headlining
comedienne Michelle Beaudry said.

At this point. Comedy on Broad-
way’s primary audience consists of
“middle-class, whitecollar people,"
said Jeff. “Only 20 percent are col-
lege students because we started
during the summer, and the college
students aren’t familiar with us
yet.“ he added.

“The majority of the comedy club
audience anywhere is the yuppie,"
Beaudry said.

But Jeff believes Comedy on
Broadway definitely has something
to offer the college student. “it gives
college students a place to go along
with the bars," he said.

“It only costs 50 cents more than a
movie, and it‘s great for a first
date,“ he said. “It used to be when
you go out on a first date, you went
somewhere that you didn‘t have to
talk. Comedy on Broadway is per-
fect for first dates, because you can
see what she laughs at, so you can
see what you can get away with say~
ing on the way home.“

Jeff said there are as many types
of comedy as there are comedians,
and no type is more popular than
the next.

 

 

“We‘ve had one Week where we
had to put discretion signs out be-
cause of the blue humor, and then
we've also had people come in that
do clean humor and been just as
successful.

“Some people think comedy is just
four-letter words,“ Jeff pointed out.
“Other people know better. We‘ve
had music people, jugglers, magi-
cians and people that just sit there
and do one-liners. They all have win-
ning records, but they play it very
different.“

Most of these comedians start out
on what Jeff called “Open Mike
Night," which Comedy on Broadway
features every 'hiesday. This is the
opportunity for anyone to step up on
stage and try his hand at making
people laugh.

If you are a success on Open Mike
Night, you could be hired to do your
routine nightly for a few weeks as
was William Logan. the current
master of ceremonies at Comedy on
Broadway. Another Lexington man
was so successful at Open Mike
Night that he's now playing clubs
across the country.

Jeff not only attributes the success
of Comedy on Broadway to the cali-
ber of comedians, but also to the at-
mosphere in the club and to a few
psychological principles.

“We have one of the nicest clubs
in America, and that helps comedi-
ans perform better,“ Jeff said. “We
did a lot of research on what come-
dians liked and this is what we came
up with."

“it‘s a dream and it has super po-
tential. it‘s a full comedy club and
not a disco or reformed bar,“ Beau-
dry said.

UK coaches and others
to act as bandleaders

By JODI WHITAKER
Staff Writer

The UK marching band will
perform to the beat of a different
drummer of sorts, when it pre-
sents a Band Spectacular tonight
at 7:30 in the Singletary Center
for the Arts.

The performance will feature
UK basketball coach Eddie Sut-
ton, UK football coach Jerry Clai-
borne, Maestro George Zack of
the Lexington Philharmonic, for-
mer governor A.B. “Happy"
Chandler and trumpeter Vincent
DiMartino as guest conductors.

This performance will “give
the band the opportunity to do a
fun, sit-down kind of performance
with emphasis on music," said
Harry Clarke, director of bands.
Without the added difficulty of
marching, the band will be able
to concentrate more on the
music, Clarke said. “We‘re really
having fun doing this.“

The concert will give the band
members and the guest conduct-
ers a chance get acquainted.

“We‘re going to try not to
make it like a formal concert,“

Clarke said. The concert won’t be
a typical social concert but a
pops concert containing light
music. “There won‘t have to be
any intense listening,“ Clarke
added. “What you hear is what
youget.“

Clarke said fewer home games
this season enabled them to
schedule this extra performance.
“We‘re real busy usually, but
since there are only six home
games where there are usually
seven, it gives us a week free to
do this."

The band has practiced three
times in the concert hall, which
Clarke said is unusual since they
are used to practicing outside.

Claiborne and Sutton will con-
duct two songs, and Zack will
lead the band in “Stars and
Stripes Forever.“ DiMartino will
be featured on "Fire Dance,“
and Chandler will sing “My Old
Kentucky Home" with the band.

Tickets are $5 and can be pur-
chased at the Center for the Arts
box office, Don Wilson Music Co..
Fred Moore Music Co. and
George Hurst Music Co.

Reagan urges Bork to keep going despite growing opposition

By W. DALE NELSON
Associated Press

WASHINGTON —- President Rea~
gan told Robert H. Bork yesterthy.
“i urge you to keep going“ in the
battle for a seat on the Supreme
Court. despite rapidly growing oppo-
sition to Bork‘s nomination and
speculation he might withdraw.

After a new spate of announce-
ments of opposition. an Associated
Press survey showed 47 senators
h‘ ving declared they would vote to
r ject Bork and 33 saying they
would vote for him. Twenty, includ-
ing It) Democrats and 10 Republi-
cans, have not publicly taken a
stance on the nomination.

Senate Democratic Whip Alan
(franston said his private count had

55 votes against the nomination. but
Republicans said enough senators
were undecided that Bork could still
wrn.

Throughout yesterday. Bork shut-
tled between meetings with Reagan
and Republican leaders on Capitol
Hill. He refused to answer questions.

“He will not decide anything
today, and said he would be in
touch," said Tom Korologos, a lob-
byist brought in by the White Home
to help Bork.

Reagan himself was emphatic,
however. The president. who has re-
peatedly declared he wants a Senate
vote on Bork, told reporters who
questioned him briefly at unrelated
ceremonial events, “I have not
changed my position. . . . l have not
changed my mind on anything."

And Senate Republican Leader
Bob Dole said after Bork met with
GOP senators for a combination pep
talk and strategy session. “if he
were on the fence when he walked
in. I think he's a little more deter-
minedtohanginthere."

Bork supporter Strom Thurmond.
RS.C.. when asked if Bork indicated
whether he would withdraw. said, "I
haven't gotten an impression either
way.“

In the Senate, nine more Demo-
cratic senators declared opposition:
John Breaux of Louisiana. Richard
Shelby of Alabama. Alan Dixon of II-
linois, J. James Exon of Nebraska.
Wyche Fowler of Georgia. Lawton
Chiles of Florida, Kent Conrad of

MEASLES ALERT

An Important Message To All U.K. Students From
The Director Of The Student Health Service

We Are Trying To Prevent A Measles Epidemic
At The University of Kentucky!

From 1963-1970 many children were vaccinated with "killed virus" vaccines
that unfortunately did not give long lasting immunity. Therefore many college
students who were vaccinated during these years are NOT immune.

This situation has led to some serioas measles epidemics on college com-
puses over the past three or foar years. These epidemics occurred at neigh-
boring universities such as indiana, Purdue and Miami of Ohio in addition to
many other colleges nationwide.

WHEN: Tues.. Oct. 15th and Wed.. Oct. 16th

WHERE: STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE, MEDICAL PLAZA BUILDING (the entrance
to the building is just beyond the overhead bridge across Rose Street from the
University Hospital), Ist floor (look for the WILDCAT BLUE DOOR).

THERE IS NO HARM IN RECEIVING A SECOND IMMUNIZATION IF THERE IS
ANY DOUBT ABOUT YOUR IMMUNITY. (Students born before 1957 do not need
further immunization because they would be considered exposed to natural
measles and would be expected to have natural immunity).

 

For this reason the Student Health Service is conducting a measles immuni-

Viewpoint

UK administration
should decide issue
quickly, effectively

The Student Government Association recommended last
night that condom dispensers be placed in the basement
bathrooms of six dormitories on campus.

In addition, the bill recommends an expansion in educa-
tional programs concerning Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndrome and sexually transmitted diseases.

Although the condom issue has only been around for one
month. it already seems like a long time because of all the
hype surrounding the issue.

It‘s time to get something resolved.

However, it looks like the condom issue probably is
going to remain in the discussion and debate process a
good deal longer because it now goes to the UK adminis-
tration — otherwise known as the black hole (issues go in
but seemingly never come out.)

We think this is one issue that should be dealt with
quickly and effectively.

It can be done. At the University of Louisville, the ad-
ministration initiated a similar issue. Consequently, con-
dom dispensers will soon be on the U of L campus. No. this
University shouldn‘t do something because U of L did, but
what our sister institution does offer is an exemplary case
of how something can be handled in an effective manner.

In order to accomplish this on our campus, someone in
the UK administration must be willing to take responsibili-
ty for the issue.

SGA President Cyndi Weaver has been trying to deter-
mine for more than three weeks who would be willing to
take the condom issue once SGA had made a decision.

Well, SGA has made a decision and it’s still not clear
whose desk the issue will land on. Someone needs to be
willing to let the “buck" stop with them.

It‘s true that there are moral implications and practical
questions of dispenser placement that must be answered.
But three weeks ago, the Kentucky Kernel filled an entire
page with letters about condoms, a large majority of which
supported the issue.

The students have spoken on this issue. Our representa-
tives have spoken. Now it’s time for the administration to
do its job quickly — not lose us in an endless mire of bu-
reaucracy.
