Campaign platforms mean little

By Jonnller Smith
Managing Editor

The platform is a strange thing.

These campaign promises can often be the decid—
ing factor in a race, but they are not a very accurate
portrayal of what a Student Government Association
president and vice president can or will do.

Just ask current President Shea Chaney.

“In any institution of this size, you have to go
through a lot of channels to get things done,”
Chaney said. “Sometimes we just had to prioritize
what we wanted to see get done. That way you can
keep things moving fast on the things you want to
see get done.”

Chaney and his vice president, Heather Hennel,
claim that although not everything on their platform
was accom lished, they have expanded every service
available t rough student government. Also they
brag that they will have a record carry-over of SGA
funds for next year.

As students hit the polls, they will need to remem—
ber that platforms may make a race interesting, but
they do not necessarily make it truthful.

At the beginning of their platform from last year‘s
election, Chaney and Hennel promised that they
“have a plan that will see each and every project to
completion."

They continued to say that they “believe in hon—
est campai ning and romise to strive for success for
all areas 0 (our) plattgrm."

Let’s see how they did:

Parking and transportation

VPan'ng the (3-4 lot

Chaney said after takin office he and Hennel
came to the realization t at because of funding
restrictions and other University—style red tape, SGA
did not have a lot of involvement in the processes
involved in this project.

On parking issues, Chaney said he did not believe
SGA had achieved everything it wanted to, but that
it had done an adequate job of at least lobbying for
what students needed.

Don Thorton, UK director of Parking and
Transportation, said the lot is still an issue that is
being taken seriously, though.

“It is still a priority on the list,” he said. “The new

parkin structure was over budget, so we did not
ave a fot left over for other projects."

VLobby for student places in new parking struc—
ture

But speaking ofthe parking structure that threw a
stone wall in front of the (5—4 promise, Chaney and
Hennel did do what they promised.

“Yes they did talk to me about it," said Joe Burch,
vice president for University Relations. “(Officials
and I) had a conversation with Shea about student
spaces. \Ve haven't made any final decisions about
who gets to go where in the parking structure, but
students will get great consideration when it comes
to parking."

He said the administration and parking officials
will know by midwyear next year where the more
than 1,000 new student spaces will be located around
campus.

VKeeping funding for Lex'l‘ran

For students who don’t need to Worry about parks
ing availability because they take a campus bus, S( iA
did its best to maintain its promise to keep Lex'l‘ran
funding. In the November elections, a city—wide ref—

Game of Hoists and turns
has students tied in knots

By Lindsay Hendrix
Staff Writer

No one left tied up in a knot, but organizers
thou ht a Twister Tournament hosted by the
Boyngatterson Complex still was a success.

With 36 Twister mats and one big spinner, even
those just watchin had something interesting to do
— see the rest oft e participants as they attempted
to reach the proper spot with their feet or hands.

“When we heard about the promotion we
thought it’d be a good idea and we could help out
the community at the same time,” said Allison Griff-
en, a bio-medical engineering graduate student and

 

 

hall director of the complex.

The idea began when the resident advisers of the
complex heard that Milton Bradley, in honor of the
30th anniversary of Twister, was offering 25 free
mats and a spinner to any group that could prove it
was an organization.

Although the event had no obvious purpose
except providing a chance for students and members
of the community to have a good time, it actually
raised money and food for local charities.

God’s Pantry will receive the canned goods col~
lected and the money will go to the Florence Crit-
tenton Home for unwed mothers.

A local radio station conducted a live broadcast
from the event and came because the station officials
thought it was a good cause.

“If it’s for a charity, we do (it for free),” said
Damon Moberly, program director for 102.5 FM.
Some simply enjoyed singing along with the music,

because twisting is hard work.

“It's a great contact sport," said Rachel Lee, com—

Hall. “Basically it's a time to get back to good, clean
fun."

For those who twisted up a sweat, sortie pink

hoped to see more participants as the religious orga-
nizations' meetings ended around 9 pm.

llole blocks vote
lor new minimum wage

“'ASlllN 1‘T().\' W In a struggle drenched
with presidential politics, Senate .\lajority Leader
Bob Dole intervened yesterday to block Democrat‘
ic demands for an immediate vote on raising the
minimum wage.

“()n the day that Bob Dole locks up the Repul»
lican (presidential) nomination, he locks out work—
ing families who are looking for a very tnodest
increase” in their paycheck, charged Democratic
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts.

Asked if he was aware that Democrats were mar—
ring Dole's anticipated triumph last night in the
California presidential primary, Kennedy, 1)-
.\'lass., told reporters, “\Ve haven't lost sleep over
it.”

 

Dole charged Democrats were playing special
interest politics with their maneuver to force a vote
on a measure to raise the federal minimum wage
from $4.25 to SS. 15 in two annual increments (if-15
cents.

The daylong struggle demonstrated that Dole
has grasped a double-edged sword as he campaigns
as his party's presidcntial nominee while retaining
his post as Senate majority leader.

Unlike the first education summit In 198‘).
which called for world—class national standards by
the year 2000, the final document expected to
emerge after two days of meetings here will focus
on state standards.

“The American people have spoken. They do
not want national standards " IBM (Lorp (Ihair
man Louis V. Gerstnerjr. said.

The governors, most of them Republicans,
asked Gerstner and other business leaders to lend
their political clout to the cause. The governors
also want businesses to insist that future workers
know how to read, write and do basic math when
they graduate from high school.

President Clinton, who as Arkansas governor
was a co-host of the 1989 summit, will address the
group today.

for unity across the racial borders that separate
black and white fraternity and sorority mem-
bers.

Last night, under the direction of the Phi
Beta Sigma social fraternity, Greek students
discussed the topics that segregate black and
white Greek life on campus.

The theme for the roundtable was: “Tear-
ing Down the Walls that Separate Us,” and
organizers are callin the event a success.

Phi Beta Sigma President Ron Anthony, a
business mana ment junior, said that the pur-
pose was to to I: about how blacks and whites
in Greek organizations can improve their rela-

“We wanted to do this because it would be
very beneficial to whites and blacks on cam us

He also sai that ice cream social: are

pants talked about problems within the Greek
system, like getting messages out to all Greek
organizations across campus.

Also discussed was the need for a unified
governing body for the Greeks at UK

“We can’t have Greek unity without a uni-
fied government,” said Amy Broghamer, a psy-
chology freshman and a member of the Delta
Gamma social sorority.

Halfway into the hour-long discussion,
Sigma Chi social fraternity President Matt

was a great step, and she plans to “go back and

hoped to find out how Greeks could join
together as a unified force, and he was pleased
with the results.

“It was an 0 en honest discussion,” Brown
said. “It only talies a few to lead the masses.”

He added that the Greek community is a

close to 20 percent 0 students at UK.

More than 35 students attended the

BI‘OOKS to sign new IIIWBI

By Robert Dotty
Arts Editor

Editor’s note: Terry Brooks is tbe
fantasy autbor responsible for
tbe“Magic Kingdom of Landover”
and “Shannara” series. His first
novel, The Sword of Sbannara, bit
tbe New York Times Best Seller list,
as bas earl) book since.

Q: How mucb
researtb went into
treating the Sban-
nara universe
before writing the
actual novels?

Terry Brooks:
I guess the
straight—forward
answer would be
that it all began
when I first started
writing, all the way back to when I
was 10 years of age, which is as far
back as I can remember. Writing
is the kind of process where you
work your way towards some kind
of an end, where you find out
what it is you can do and what you
can’t do. I spent a lot of years
experimenting with different
forms.

I knew pretty much in my teen
years that I wanted to do some-
thing with the adventure story
format that had been used by the
European adventure story writers
like Dumas, Stevenson and Scott.
I didn’t uite know what I wanted
to do wi it, since I didn’t want to
do something historical. When I
was in college, still trying different
forms and so forth, I read Tolkien
and I thought, ‘Well now here’s
the format’ — ou know, some-
thing totally di erent, not taking
Tolkien’s approach with language
and history, but focusing instead
on the adventure story concept,

\‘I

Terry BI‘OOIIS
V

eliminating the a pendices and
things that may 5 ow the reader
down.

That pretty much was the for-
mat. The second part of that
equation was deciding that in the
Shannara world ma 'c would
work the same wa t at science
works in our word and would
essentially act as a metaphor for

science. That
way we would
know that it
would have both
good and bad
uses.

Q: How do you

__l __/- _J go about keeping

the series fresh and

interestin .3
T.B.: SVell, I

have to keep
myself interested
first. If I can do
that most of the time I figure I can
keep the reader interested. If it’s
boring to me then it’s certainly
goin to be boring to them. So

ou 0 different thin in order to

eep the spark fanne . I think that
the first thing is I don’t do one
book right after another.

And the other thing is you have
to pretty much have to trust your
story telling instincts. If you get
the story right or you think it’s
right, the chances are the readers
are oing to follow you there and
not e disappointed.

Q: Witb the release of your new
book, you also have a CD—ROM
game coming out based on the Short-
nara world. Did you have a lot of
input in it?

T.B.: Well, I did to the extent
that I had the final say of whether
it was going to get done, who was

oing to do it, and what the story
fine was going to be. That was the
most important part. I interviewed

the gaming compan that wanted
to do it and it turne out the peo-
ple at Legend Entertainment were
all book people, and that won me
over right away. They read the
field extensivel . They knew m
stories so well at they could talk
to me about what they saw in
them, and that was important.

Secondly, they chose to set the
stories that they were going to do
outside of the plot lines of the
book, which was something else I
thought was important. I didn’t
want people who bought the game
to get just another rehash of the
stories —— it’s a fresh and addition—
a] thing to the book.

Thirdly, they were willing to
give me control over what went
into it. They did a treatment on it
and decided who the characters
were going to be. I saw that and
approved it, made a few changes,
said get to it and was on my way.

Q: Would you ever be interested in
writin for a film or television series?

T. .: Oh, I doubt it. (laughs) I
don't have real stron feelings for
that. I suppose I wouFd if the right
thin came along, but I’m pretty
muc a book person, since I’m not
particularly impressed by movies
and television and so forth as
entertainment form. I like what
happens with the books.

I always get worried about
what’s going to happen if it gets
made into a movie, which way it’s
going to go and what they’re

oing to do to the story line. I’ve
been involved a couple times with
the movie people, and it hasn’t
been a particularly good experi—
ence.

Q: Would ‘First King of Sban—
nara’ be a good place for readers not
familiar with our series to start of]?

T.B.: Wefl, of course it would
be excellent because it’s a prehis-

By John Abbott

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
While speeding down the express-
way, you merge into the other
lane without checking to see
whether or not a car is already
over there. Your lack of fore-
thought turns tragic — you run an
old lady off the road, and her car

tumbles down an embankment

and falls on a bus filled with ele—
mentary school kids on their way
to the zoo. Both vehicles burst
into flames, killing all aboard. You
know what? You suck!

Virgo (April 20 - May 20)
Some little brat you know is killed
in a freakish road accident. You
are wracked with guilt because

sad, but you don’t. You are

obscenely joyful.

Leo (July 23 — Aug. 22) In

0: Would this still be a good book
to read for all the people who have

T.B.: That was the major ques-
tion mark with doin this particu-
lar book. I’ve had a ct of requests
over the years for this book or
somethin similar to it that dealt
with the istory of the Shannara
world. I’ve kind of avoided it
because I thought pre-quels were
rehashes and much too pre-
dictable, and there didn’t seem to
be any way to do it that would be
interesting.

I finally came up with a way to
do the story line that I thought
would lend it a fresh approach and
not just be a re-telling of the sto-
ries and conce ts people had
already read in tffebooks. Once I
did that it all came together pretty

You are on your way to an impor-

”WT STOP, KEEP RIDING Ride ‘3 newert album, ‘Taramula, ’failr to meet

expectations.

cause can SICKNESS

By John Abbott
Senior Stafl" Critic

The cover art of Tarantula, the
new album from Ride, shows a
jaundice—colored hand gripping a
revolver pointed straight out from
the pa Unfortunately for us,
these English retro- -psychcdclic
rockers are firing blanks Tarantu—
la is a disappointing last hurrah
from a group that used to have
real bite.

The big problem with the
album is the lack of passable, even
tolerable, wordplay. Lead guitarist
Andy Bell writes some of the
dumbest lyrics I’ve heard in a
while. Try this, from “Walk on
Water”: “Beautiful Lady I love
you so/You know I need you,
please don’t go/Just like a child,
I’m running wild/I'd walk on
water for your smile." Exactly how

scribble down this garbage?

The drippy “Mary Anne"
doesn’t get any better: “Alary
Anne, why can’t you seeffhat you
were born to marry inc/Take my
love, it’s all I am/See, I’m deter-
mined to be your man,” Bell
weakly croons. I think he could
have achieved greater depth and
power if he’d copied some
