Fewer young Americans
abuse drugs, survey shows

By DEBORAH MESCE
Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Use of ille-
gal drugs by high school seniors,
college students and other young
adults declined in I989, continuing
a decade-long trend, according to
an annual survey released yester-
day.

The survey, funded by the Na-
tional Institute on Drug abuse, said
illegal drug use dropped last year
among all three categories of young
people surveyed, and that casual
use among high school seniors and
college students is about half what
it was a decade ago.

“This reduced demand is attribut-
able largely to the important chang-
es occurring in the attitudes, beliefs
and social norms among our young
people," said Lloyd Johnston, a
University of Michigan social sci-
entist who helped conduct the sur-
vey, which was funded by the Na-
tional Institute on Drug Abuse.

He said the decline has come
about because anti-drug messages
have made illegal drug use “un—
fashionable." And he noted that the
decline has been occurring despite
students’ belief that marijuana and
cocaine are easy to get.

Survey officials, however, said
they continue to be concerned

about use of crack, the highly ad-
dictive, smokable form of cocaine.
Its use among ”mainstream" young
adults is declining, the survey
found, but not as much as use of
powdered cocaine.

Among seniors. 1.4 percent said
they had used crack within the pre-
vious 30 days, down from 1.6 per-
cent in 1988.

The also expressed concern about
use of “ice," or crystal metham-
phetamine, which was included in
the survey for the first time last
year.

About 1.2 percent of the seniors

Bunning is optimistic about the Republican Party’s future

MEL ”Mod Std!

Rep. Jim Bunning speaks to the UK College GOP yesterday.

By BRIAN JENT
Managing Editor

Kentucky Congressman Jim
Banning told UK students yester-
day that the future is bright for the
Republican Party in the 19905.

Speaking before abOut 3S. std
dents in 206 Student Center. Bun-
ning said that the Republican Party
stands to “make major gains na-
tionally and in Kentucky" if young-
er members come together and
show their support

“It is so important (to get in-
volved)," the GOP Representative
from the Fourth Congressional Dis~
trict said. “The momentum is in our
favor. We have a popular president,
voting trends, youth, restructuring
(of the voting districts), the Demo-
crats adversary at a national level
are all working in our favor we
can make this a Republican decade.
The possibility is there. We just

have to get out there and work.“

The speech was sponsored by
UK's chapter of the College Re-
publicans.

“The purpose of the visit is to
speak to the College Republicans,"
said John Middleton, a political
science and history major who is
the group's vice chairman.

Although the GOP has lost offic-
es at several Icvds of govemmcnt.
Bunning said he sees the Republi-
can Party‘s control of the White
House during the I9805 as a big as
SCI.

The Republican Party also has
won four out of the last five races
for the White House.

Bunning said that Ronald Rea-
gan's 85 months of continuous ec-
onomic growth, the longest in
peace-time history, and current
President George Bush‘s populari-
ty as examples of the GOP‘s
strength.

“We have the ongoing legend of
Ronald Reagan, and whether you
like it or not. there is a very good
perception all over this country
about Reagan. Ronald Reagan
proved to the American people that
you can handle the office of the
presidency with dignity he said.

Another reason that the Republr
can‘s are on the rte is that conflicts
are occurring within the National
Democratic Party, Running said.

“A 165 (ollicialsi switched from
Democrat to Republican last year."
Bunning said. “They have a terrible
time finding what they believe in.“

Running said that voting redis
tricting also would benefit the GOP
future. Accoiding to Buniiing's re-
search, he said that Kentucky ‘s yol-
iitg districts will not change alter
the 1990 census.

Fisher

Continued from page 1

Fisher transferred to University
High, where he spent his junior and
senior years, in 1931.

“With this particular school you
had access to help from students in
the College of Education,“ he said.
“They would help out the home-
room or ‘critic teacher.‘ The stu-
dent-teachers would come before
the class and instruct for several
weeks.

“I liked it. I thought it was a very
good idea. It gave students a
chance to get additional help. Of
course that was part of the (instruc-
tors) education. to get practice."

University High School no long-
er exists, but students in the Col-
lege of Education still are required
to student teach for one semester.

“All students in the progrtun still
student-teach for one semester. We
no longer have the University
school," said Sharon Brennan, di-
rector of field experiences and cer-
tification in the College of Educa-
tion. “Now we use the schools in
Fayette County."

Fisher graduated from University
High in 1932 and moved with his
family to Winchester, Ky., where
he attended Kentucky Wesleyan
College.

The stock market crashed and the
Fisher family, along with other
Americans, felt the affects.

“lt affected all walks of life. Peo-
ple just didn’t have any money.
People would work for a dollar a
day," he said. “My father left this
section for Chicago to try to find a
job. My mother and 1 left (Lexing-
ton for Winchester) because we lost
our home."

Because few jobs were available

in the 1930s, many high school stu-
dents could not afford to attend col-
lege, Fisher said.

But through a working scholar-
ship, Fisher was able to attend Ken-
tucky Weslyan College.

“It meant that I painted houses
and cut grass (for the college) to
pay the tuition and books," he said.

In the 1990s, however, the num-
ber ofjob openings gives students a
reason to continue their education.

“Today there is far more job
openings. Kids today, well if they
can't find (ajob) in Lexington, they
can go somewhere else,“ Fisher
said. “In my day you just couldn't.
There are just more reasons for
more people to go to college today.
Things are just so much better to-
day."

After graduating from Kentucky
Weslyan College, Fisher was given
a job by his brc'her, a business and
advertising manager for the Wiri-

chester Sun.

“My brother was the business
manager and advertising manager
and gave me my opportunity to
help him. When he left. I took his
place," Fisher said. ”My father.
first of all, handled advertising for
a bunch of Lexington stores. My
brother handled advertising for a
bunch of movie places. That kind
of made me fall into it."

In 1941 Fisher joined the retail
advertising staff of the Lexington
Herald-Leader where he worked
for 35 years, the last 13 years as
manager of the National Advertis-
ing Department.

Fisher retired in 1976 from the
Herald-Leader, where he first
learned about the Donovan Schol-
ars program.

The Donovan Scholars program,
which began in the fall 1962. al-
lows students 65 years and older to
enroll in regular university classes

for free.

When the program started, 26
Donovans were enrolled at UK to
take academic courses. This semes-
ter 130 students 65 years or older
are enrolled in UK courses.

“When it first started it wasn’t
that much known about it. Today
there is a lot done to encourage
people to join the Donovans," Fish-
er said. “In the ‘30s a lot of people
didn't graduate because they
couldn't afford to go to college. A
lot of people wanted to resume
their education. It takes a little
while for people to come into the
program. It's just natural that there
would be more today than then."

The opportunity to take college
classes to advance his education at
no cost attracted Fisher to the Don-
ovan program.

“When (former UK President)
Dr. Donovan got ready to retire he
(formed a program) to let people

over 65 take those courses," he
said. “I just took advantage of the
free courses."

“It's a way to improve your
mind. At my particular age I have
no reason to work for a degree. All
said and done, I get as much out of
just attending lecture courses," he
said. “I have no purpose to ever go
back to work, so I have no reason
to get a degree. I‘m not doing it for
that purpose. lfI got a degree every
year it would not make a bit of dif-
ference in my life."

Beginning his education in 1929
and continuing his education in
1990, Fisher considers himself to
have completed a circle.

“1 look forward to it and enjoy it,
so making a full circle is what I
did,” he said. “I think it‘s great that
the University makes it possible
that we can take this program to
keep on learning."

Hopper and Sutherland save

By KIP BOWMAR
Senior Stall Critic

Some movies give you a yes-the-
commercral-is—going-tobe-funnter-
than-thiscntiremovie feeling in
the beginning but manage to sal-
vage some measure of credibility.

There are few of these movies be-
cause when one starts so poorly,
it‘s usually a slow and steady de-
scent into the depths of film hell
- a place graced by most Brooke
Shields movies.

While Franco Amurri’s “Flash-
back“ gives that initial feeling,
there is a measure of redemption
because of the intriguing perfor-
mances by Keller Sutherland, Den-
nis Hopper and several other charac-
ters.

The movie starts with young FBI
agent John Buckner (Ketfer Suther—
land) escorting 19605 radical Huey
Walker (Dennis Hopper) to Jail for
a 20-year-old criminal mischief
charge.

In the scene where Buckner and
Walker meet, Buckner plays the
heavy and sets the rules down. It's
a scene that has been done count-
less times before, and most of the

time better. The scene seem to be
lifted from the Eddie Murphy-Nick
Noltie scene in “48 Hours."

Fog prevents the two from fly-
ing from San Francisco to Spo-
kane, Wash, and the they have to
take the train — an idea first em—
ployed in film when the fog ma-
chine was invented.

The movie's characters are origi-
on], even if many of its scenes are
not. Hopper is convincing in his
role as an old radical, harkening
hack to the type of character he
played in “Easy Rider."

Hopper convinces Sutherland
that he slipped him some acid and
manages to switch places with
him. Hopper’s walk and gestures
are well-suited to the quirky charac-
ter he ponrays.

Hopper then runs into yippies«
turned-yuppies (Richard Massur
and Tom O’Brien) in a bar. The
script pokes fun at yuppies who
are a part of the system but still
pretend to be rebels. Those charac-
ters' pretensions are amusing and
add to the movie.

In jail Sutherland runs into a
crooked sheriff (Cliff De Young),
and through a twist of events Su—

VIEWPOINT

SGA election bill

an efficient move
for the Senate

Two years ago, the Student Government Association’s
executive branch was essentially divided. SGA President
Cyndi Weaver and Executive Vice President Brad Dixon did
not get along, and as a result the executive branch’s overall
efﬁciency suffered. Dixon and Weaver were elected from
opposing tickets, and did not see eye to eye on many student

issues.

Tonight the SGA Senate will consider an amendment to its
constitution that calls for the president and vice president to be
elected on the same ticket. This page has been a strong
proponent of electing SGA’s executive branch ofﬁcials on the
Same ticket, but the idea has never had the two-thirds vote in

the Senate needed to pass.

Electing the president and vice president on the same tickets
creates a more efﬁcient government. Under President Sean
Lohman and Vice President Paige Foster this year, the
executive branch has run rather smoothly. Lohman and Foster
ran on the same ticket and shared similar ideas of what SGA’s
role ought to be, and have worked together quite well.

But if candidates from an opposing ticket had been elected to
SGA last spring, student govemment’s effectiveness might

have been severely limited.

When the Board of Trustees ignored student needs last
semester during the Roselle—Wilkinson—Wethington—Ockerman
episode, Lohman was the spokesman for student concerns.
Had he been elected to serve with someone who opposed him
in the spring election, Lohman could have been undercut by his

own executive branch.

Having an SGA president and vice president who get along
is most important to ensure that SGA’s everyday operations are
attended to and students’ needs are met.

The president and vice president have a vital role in setting a
tone for SGA in which students are encouraged to become
active in their student government. It therefore is important for
the two officials to have a healthy and professional working

relationship.

In defense of electing the president and vice president
separately, one could argue that it forces leaders to place
student interests above private political concerns. Opposing
candidates also produce a sort of check between the two

offices.

But the problem with that argument is that it fails to
recognize that while two students may have the student body’s
interest at heart, their visions of serving students may be
radically different. And rather than working together, the
executive branch ofﬁcials may wind up working against each

other.

Therefore, we encourage the Senate to vote for the
amendment allowing students to vote for the ticket of president

and vice president.
