NU search suffers as field dwindles

Associated Praaa

LINCOLN, Neb. — A withdraw-
al by one candidate and a disclosure
about another appear to improve the
chances of UK's Chancellor for the
Lexington Campus Robert Hemen-
way vying for the University of Ne-
braska presidency.

The number of finalists is now at
three, following the withdrawal of
Gene Budig, chancellor of the Uni-
versity of Kansas, on Tuesday.

Hemenway has been listed as a
finalist.

Meanwhile, it was disclosed that
one of the remaining three, Univer-
sity of Northern Colorado President
Robert Dickeson, is under censure

Poverty,
blindness
linked in
Kentucky

Assoclated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Poverty
and inadequate education are caus-
ing rates of blindness and impaired
vision in a southeastern Kentucky
town to outpace the national aver-
age, doctors say.

In the Floyd County town of Mud
Creek, a 1988 survey of more than
1,100 residents ages 40 and older
found five people who were blind
and almost 40 who had lost sight in
one eye. The incidence of blindness
—— 0.44 percent in both eyes and 3.3
percent in one eye — was twice the
national rate.

The survey results were reported
in yesterday’s issue of the Journal
of the American Medical Associa-
tion by Dr. Ellen Joyce and a team
of researchers from The Johns Hop-
kins University School of Medicine
in Baltimore.

In an interview, Joyce said she
was surprised by the results since
she rarely saw a blind patient during
her 10 years at the Mud Creek Clin~
ic.

Eula Hall, founder of the clinic,
said poverty is the reason many
Mud Creek residens have impaired
vision. Many can’t afford the $15 or
$20 neighbors charge to drive them
to a doctor in Pikeville, she said.

with his staff from a national col-
lege faculty group.

NU spokesman Joe Rowson said
he hadn’t heard any discussion of
reopening the search.

The NU Board of Regents must
reconsider Dickeson on his merits.
Regents chairman Don Blank said
Tuesday.

Dickeson’s administration has
been under censure by the Ameri-
can Association of University Pro-
fessors, a faculty union, since the
early 19808, stemming from faculty
layoffs.

One of the regents believes the
turmoil may force the board to reo-
pen the search.

“This is a personal hunch," Rose-

mary Skrupa of Omaha said of re-
convening the search committee. “I
haven't talked about it with any of
the regents."

Budig's withdrawal Tuesday
might create more interest in the NU
post, she said.

Regent Margaret Robinson of
Norfolk said anything was possible.

The other candidate listed by a
search committee as a finalist was
University of Missouri-Rolla Chan-
cellor Martin J ischke.

The list of candidates didn’t in-
clude NU interim President Martin
Massengale. But the search commit-
tee said the regents could consider

Chancellor for the Lexington

braska presidential search. After
his 15-minute speech and discus-
sion at the senate, he told report-
ers he would not discuss the
search until it reaches its conclu-
sion.

Despite having three sectors,
Hemenway said the academic
reputation of the University is de-
cided on the main campus (the
Lexington Campus and the Medi»
cal Center).

Hemenway said UK’s reputa-
tion depends upon the happen—

ings of the Lexington Campus.

“Unless there is a quality educa—
tion being provided on the Lex‘
ington Campus, the reputation of
the University of Kentucky as a
whole suffers greatly."

He spoke to the Senate about
the “public trust" that student
leaders and University administra-
tors share to improve the ITniver»
sity.

Leary finalist for state school chief

Associated Press

FRANKFORT, Ky. —— Longtime
school administrator William J.
Leary is no stranger to the vagaries
of a school board or to the powerful
role politics can play in shaping an
education system.

In I974, after just two years on
the job, Leary was immersed in the
volatile issue of school integration
as superintendent of his native Bos-
ton.

The school board, which was
loathe to integrate the racially divid-

ed schools, was no help as Leary
oversaw the city‘s ugliest hour —
the dawn of busing to meet a federal
judge's order for school desegrega-
tion.

‘Leary did what he thought a pub-
lic official who‘s sworn to uphold
the laws of the land was supposed to
do," said Harvard education profes-
sor Charles Willie, an expert on the
desegregation era.

“His school board was recalcitrant
and in opposition to the court.
The mayor was really playing poli-
tics. And that left Leary alone.

He tried to abide by the authority of
the court and that‘s why he got
fired.“

Thirteen years later, Leary was
fired from another big school sys-
tem, this time for clinging too
closely to the school board and fail—
ing to learn the Florida system. For
the first time in its history, the Bro~
ward County school board bought
out a superintendent's contract.

“Dr. Leary’s strengths are in ide-
as and public relations," said Lori
N. Parrish, former board chaimian
of the Fort Laudcrdale—area system,

who helped lead the charge against
Leary. “His weakness is in the im-
plementation of those ideas and
hands-on."

Leary is one of three finalists to
be Kentucky‘s first education com-
missioner "A the person who Will
implement court-ordered school re-
form in Kentucky. And the question
today is whether he is the deter-
mined ground-breaker he was in
1974 or a smooth talker who's lost
his edge.

In his current post as head of the
Gloucester, Mass. school system,

Rape case clouded by drunkeness

Associated Press

PROVIDENCE, RI. —— Right af-
ter the fraternity party the young
woman could remember it all so
clearly: A pledge had raped her as
several others watched, she told po-
lice.

A week and a half later her mem-
ory failed. But by then, one youth
who had been at the party was dy-
ing, an apparent suicide, and anoth-
er had been held without bail for a
week in prison. accused of a rape he
denies committing.

The 18-year-old woman who ac-
cused the student now says she was
drunk and testified in court that she

no longer remembers everything
that happened. She has not been
identified by the media because of
the nature of the case.

“It's just a big mess," said Sandra
Wall, 21, who writes for the Univer-
sity of Rhode Island newspaper. “I
want to hold somebody responsible
but it's a tragedy. There really is
no answer and there is nobody to
blame."

Michael Lindell, 20. never a sus-
pect in the alleged rape Oct. 27 at
the Tau Kappa Epsilon house at the
University of Rhode Island. died
Wednesday at a hospital after shoot-
ing himself in the head at the house
he shared with John J. Birchall, who

owned the house.

Hours earlier. Dave Lallemand,
19, who was charged with the rape
but maintained his innocence, was
freed when his accuser said she had
forgotten the details.

Pawtucket police Monday dis-
closed that a note was found at Lin-
dell's home.

“It was a very vague note and I
would not necessarily term it a sui~
cide note," said detective Lt. Thom-
as Hams. He wouldn't elaborate.

Harris said Lindell, a former URI
student who knew members of the
fraternity, knew state police wanted
to question him about what he saw

at the party.

Investigators haven‘t said wheth-
er they werc linking his death to the
alleged rape. State Police LL Brian
Andrews said detectives have con-
cluded their investigation and will
present the evidence to a grand jury.

Neither Lallemand nor his accus-
er could be reached for comment
Monday. There was no answer at
the woman‘s residence hall room.
Lallemand was not at his parents'
home in Westford. Mass, where he
abruptly returned on Sunday.

the lead character.

White has changed Cinderella
from the uaditionally “cute. inno-
cent, Disney-like character” to a
more realistic character.

“(Cinderella) is a little bit differ-
ent, but I think she and her prince
are real people," White said. “Peo-
ple will be able to relate to them.”

White, 22, graduated from UK
last May and this will be her first
professional show. In the past, she
has starred in such plays as ”The
Skin of Our Teeth,” “The Dining
Room," and “The Best Little
Whorehouse in Texas.” She also
spent last summer in Georgia per-
forming professional musicals.

White said she has always want-
ed to be an actress for as long as
she can remember. She got her first
taste of theater acting when she
was 14, and she’s been hooked
ever since.

 By ED SCHUYLER JR.
Associated Press

NEW YORK — Evander Holy-
field will not surrender the World
Boxing Council's piece of his heav-
yweight championship without a
fight.

Holyfield, who won the undisput-
ed title from James “Buster" Doug-
las Oct. 25, is signed to defend it
against 42-year-old George Fore-
man April 19.

“The fight is happening April 19

because Evander Holyfield is the
undisputed heavyweight champion
of the world, and there's nothing
(WBC president) Jose Sulaiman can
do to change that," Dan Duva, Hol-
yfield's promoter. said yesterday.

He spoke at a news conference
called to officially announce that
the World Boxing Association had
changed its stance and will sanction
the match.

The WBC, WBA and Internation-
al Boxing Federation all ruled that
Holyfield's first defense had to be

against Mike Tyson, who lost the ti-
tle to Douglas.

At the news conference, James
Binns, counsel for the WBA, read a
letter from WBA President Gilberto
Mendoza to Holytield in which
Mendoza said the WBA would
sanction the fight with Foreman
“upon the condition that the winner
must defend the title against the
then leading available contender, by
no later than June 11. 1991."

Tyson, who is to fight ex Stew-
art Dec. 8 at Atlantic City, N..l., cur-

rently is the No. 1 contender of all
three governing bodies.

The IBF Executive Committee re-
portedly is leaning toward sanction-
ing the match, and President Bob
Lee said by telephone that he will
have an announcement by the end
of the week. Should the fight be
sanctioned, Lee said, the winner
would have 30 days to negotiate
with the leading contender for a de-
fense by next Oct. 25.

Duva threatened court action
against the WBC and take his case

Tennis tours announce drug testing

By NESHA STARCEVIC
Associated Press

FRANKFURT, Germany —- The
men’s and women’s tennis tours
yesterday announced a joint drug-
testing policy and adopted several
identical regulations in their Codes
of Conduct.

The men's Association of Tennis

Professionals started drug testing in
1987, while the Women’s Tennis
Association began a program last
year.
“Today we have sharpened the fo-
cus of both our drug testing pro-
grams by making them essentially
the same," said Mark Miles, ATP
Tour’s Chief Executive Officer.

The ATP tour does not disclose
results of its random drug testing

program. Rules call for an automat-
ic nine-month suspension for per-
formance-enhancing drugs.

The suspensions would have to be
made public, according to ATP
rules. There have been no such sus-
pensions since the men’s tour began
drug testing.

“We believe the men’s tour is
clean," Miles said.

He declined to say if any players
were caught using drugs other than
those of the performance-enhancing
variety, such as heroin or cocaine.

“Our policy is to not disclose re-
sults unless there is a suspension,”
he said.

First-time and second-time of—
fenders caught using narcotics such
as cocaine are required to undergo
mandatory treatment, funded by the

ATP. ‘

A third offense mandates a per-
manent ban from the sport. The ban
also comes into force for second-
time offenders caught using perfor-
mance-enhancing drugs.

The prohibited substances are an-
abolic steroids, masking agents, diu-
retics, stimulants, such as cocaine,
and narcotic analgesics, such as her-
om.

Banned doping methods include
blood doping, in which blood is
drawn, stored and then transfused
just before a competition.

“The players are definitely for the
joint program. They want to ensure
that there are no drugs on the tour,”
Gerard Smith. Chief Executive Offi-
cer of the WTA, said by telephone
from New York.

The two tours also agreed on
some on-court practices — that the
time allowed between points shall
not exceed 25 seconds and that
there will be 90 seconds for change-
overs.

The socalled three-step Penalty
Schedule (warning, point, default)
will be used for on-court code viola-
tions. Time violations are not pan
of the Penalty Schedule.

Miles said the men's tour con-
ducted random tests at three events
this year, but he declined to say
where.

The two tours also announced
that they will make a scheduling
change, which will allow the sea-
son-ending finals not to be held in
the same week.

Blue Devil, Hoya coaches among the best

By JIM O'CONNELL
Associated Press

John Thompson and Mike Krzy-
zewski have quite a bit in common.

They coach two of the more suc-
cessful programs in college basket-
ball

They both have reputations for
playing by the NCAA’s rules.

And both have never been afraid
to step forward and offer an opinion
on the state of their sport.

They also were both almost gone
during the offseason, headed for the
NBA.

It would have been tough to ima-
gine Georgetown playing without
the 6—foot-10 Thompson looming
on the sidelines, towel draped over
the shoulder.

It just wouldn’t have looked right
for anyone else to take Duke to yet
another Final Four beside Knyzew-
ski, the well-groomed, intense disci-
ple of Bobby Knight

Thompson was courted by Den-
ver Nuggets owners Peter Bynoe
and Bertram Lee, the first minority
owners in a major professional
league, to take over as general man-

ager with a piece of the team thrown
in. Published reports had him gone
after 18 years with the Hoyas. He
had turned a program in disarray
into one that has won 20 or more
games for 12 straight years, one sea-
son longer than the suing of NCAA
appbarances, which included three
Final Fours and the 1984 national
championship.

“I think a lot of times how things
are projected as different than how
they’re actually going on," Thomp-
son said.

“I listened and I analyzed and I
evaluated and I was never not
Georgetown‘s coach. That‘s who I
was working for. If I had committed
myself to leave and then changed
my mind that would have been dif-
ferent.

“I was not considering another
opportunity because I didn’t like
what I was doing. I did it because it
was the sensible thing to do. I en-
courage all my players to do that.
Never just close your eyes to every-
thing. I never in my mind felt this
was something that I lost."

Krzyzewski, who has taken Duke
to the Final Four four of the last five

years, also was considered gone
from the college ranks acco’rding to
some reports, headed on to coach
the Boston Celtics as the organiza-
tion started a new era under the
leadership of former Big East com-
missioner Dave Gavitt.

“I feel very good where I am right
now from all points of view,“ Krzy—
zewski said. “It was great pressure
but it was also an honor and I
learned a lot. One of the attractions
was working with a man like Dave
Gavitt whom I have admired for
some time with the things he has
done."

Now it’s set. Both will be back
this season and their teams will
meet on Dec. 5 in the ACC-Big
East Challenge at Landover, Md.

Another thing both have in com-
mon is directing US. national teams
in major competitions. Thompson
was the Olympic coach in 1988 and
Krzyzewski led the team in the
World Championships this summer.
Both returned with bronze medals.

“It felt good to be off the road,"
said Krzyzewski, who also led the
team in the Goodwill Games, mean-
ing no time off between seasons

Thompson made his concern for
college athletes public when he
walked off the court in 1989 in a
protest of the passage of a change in
the academic restrictions for incom-
ing freshmen.

Tyson not named Holyfield’s next opponent

to the public and to advertisers who
sponsor WBC fights on television.
adding, “I believe the WBC is going
to sanction this fight or get out of
boxing.

“I see the possibility of a congres-
sional investigation into boxing if.
they steal Holyfield's title."

Asked why he would press for
WBC recognition since the fight
will happen even if it’s withheld,
Duva said: “Why it is important is
Evander Holyfield earned it."

Duva said the WBC sanctioning
fees for the Holyfield-Douglas fight
were more than $300,(X)0, with

$150,000 coming from Holyfield.
The new Champion’s share of the
WBA sanctioning fees was
$100,000 and his share of the IBF
fees was $80,000.

“For that kind of money, you ex-
pect fair treatment," Duva said.

“Root for Sulaiman to take the ti-
tle from you," a grinning Bob
Arum, who represents Foreman and
will co—promote the fight, told
Duva: “then you'll save $150,000.
For me. it's ridiculous to pay
$150,000 for that green (champion—
ship) belt. You can buy it for $5 in a
store.”

Where is UK

in Hemenway’s
academic future?

Last week, Robert Hemenway told the campus why people
should take pride in being a part of the UK. “Students ought to
be able to take pride in UK as the place to study inside the
commonwealth," the Chancellor for the Lexington Campus
said.

We wonder if Hemenway really feels that way. Yesterday, it
was reported that Hemenway appears to have a good chance
being named president of the University of Nebraska, his alma
mater.

Since being named chancellor in July 1989, it has been no
secret that Hemenway has had his eyes on becoming president
of a university or college. But he also made a commitment to
the University when he agreed to become chancellor.

Many people were excited about his appointment because he
represented a fresh approach to handling administrative deci-
sions. Hemenway also received high marks from faculty and
other administrators for making quick. intelligent decisions
and not allowing recommendations and reports pile up on his
desk.

Hemenway also has some interesting plans for the Lexington
Campus. Last fall, he released a Lexington Campus agenda
that was designed to give direction to the University’s academ-
ic mission.

Most recently, Hemenway was presented the first major cri-
sis of his brief tenure when a University Senate ad hoc com-
mittee issued a report on the status of women at UK. It will be
interesting to see how Hemenway will deal with the challenge,
but if he heads west, we will never know.

Another fact Hemenway must realize is that many on catn—
pus have put a lot of faith in him since Charles Wethington be-
came president. Regardless of how fair or true it may be, He-
menway must realize that many people believe that he is one

of the last hopes UK has of being a well-known university.

Up to this point, Hemenway has said that while he is flat‘
tered at being nominated for the position, he is very happy at
UK. If he is happy with life in Lexington, then why doesn‘t he
withdraw from the Nebraska search? He already has estab-
lished that he is a strong candidate for any school’s presidency.
so what does he have to gain by leaving both UK and Nebras-

ka in limbo?

The campus deserves to know what Hemenway’s long—term
intentions at UK are, and publicly stating his interest in the Ne-
braska search is the only way it can know for sure.

l was very concerned after read-
ing the Oct. 29 “Doggy Bagll" that
its future may be in danger.

Now that the public does not wish
to read comic strips full of mastur-

bation, rape, satanism, genitals and
other assorted goodies that it has
featured in the past. its author (Kenn
Minter) will be forced to dig deep
into his own “doggy bag“ of artistic
abilities and write a comic strip that
is both tasteful and creative.

Yes, this is an obstacle that col-
lege newspaper cartoonists often
face, but I see that Minter has not

“Spare the rod, spoil the child,”

the Kentucky state school board
voted unanimously to ban corporal
punishment in public schools on
Tuesday. It connected the trendy ban
with school reforms passed earlier
this year.

The school board acted on the ad-
vice of a committee that was formed
to study the effects of corporal pun-
ishment. The committee claimed
that paddling did not improve school
discipline.

All I can say to that is hogwash!
As anyone who has ever attended a
school where corporal punishment
was used knows, it is a definite ad-
vantage in school discipline and
therefore the overall learning of
those in the class.

There are many situations and stu-
dents that demand the swift punish-
ment of paddling. I remember many
instances in elementary school when
corporal punishment was used to
stop disruptive activity that could
not have been stopped effectively
any other way. The state school
board points to alternatives to pad-
dling such as Saturday School, de-
tention and forcing students to make
restitution for damages.

Who’s going to enforce Saturday

I gnoring the Biblical paraphrase,

School? Often it’s hard enough to.

get problem students to attend at all,
much less attend on a Saturday for
punishment.

Detention may work in some in-

been professional enough to chal-
lenge himself to create humor with-
out offending or degrading others on
a weekly basis.

We readers wouldn’t want him to
change for the sake of integrity.
That would be too much to ask. Of
course, even if it were t
