Chapman chosen eighth
by Charlotte Hornets

By TOM SPALDING
Sports Editor

In his two years at Kentucky, Rex
Chapman was part of UK's storied
basketball program, rich in tradi-
tion.

Now the 20~year-old hopes he can
start a tradition, as a member of the
NBA's new expansion team, the
Charlotte Hornets.

The former AllSEC basketball
player was chosen as the 8th-pick
overall Tuesday, and the first selec-
tion ever by the Hornets.

“I haven’t really talked that much

with Charlotte, but I understand its

really a great city, a growing city
and anxious to get a basketball team
underway,” Chapman said Tuesday
afternoon at the NBA’s college bas-
ketball draft in New York on WTBS.
“Rex Chapman signifies ev-
erything that this franchise stands
for,” Hornets vice president and
general manager Carl Scheer told
reporters after the draft. “That is,
youth, excitement, explosiveness,
talent. I think we have started with
a great young player. We couldn’t

be more excited. We think we have
done very, very well."

NCAA player-of-the year Danny
Manning of the University of Kansas
was the No. 1 pick in the draft by
theSan Diego Clippers.

Three other Wildcats also were
chosen in the three-round selection.

Rob Dock, a Hoot-10 center, was
the second Wildcat chosen. Lock
was picked up by the Clippers as the
Slst overall choice in the third
round.

Ed Davender, a six-foot guard
from Brooklyn, N .Y., was chosen by
the Washington Bullets in the third
round also. He was the No. 60 pick.

Winston Bennett, who overcame
an injured knee to star in his final
season, was drafted No. 64 in the
third round by the Cleveland Cava-
liers.

UK seniors Richard Madison and
Cedric Jenkins were not chosen by
an NBA teaminthethreerounrb.

“I’m happy for our four guys who
were drafted," UK coach Eddie Sut-
ton said. “I'm also disappointed for
Richard and Cedric. Hopefully, they
will get a chance to play in the NBA

The Lexington Fund for the Arts
announced Tuesday that it raised
more than $420,000 during its 1908
fund-raising campaign.

“The success of the Fund for the
Arts campaign will further enhance
the quality of life in the Lexington
community, its social values and
community spirit,“ said JF.
Boehm, Chairman and Chief Exec-
utive Officer of Valvoline Oil Com-
pany, in a press release. “A success-
ful campaign will help the hind for
the Arts exercise its fullest capabili-
ties, keep growing and directly help
thecommunity.“

In early April, Lexington Mayor
Scotty Baesler challenged the orga-
nization to raise $400,000.

Ralph Coldiron, fund chairman,
said Baesler was a major force be-
hindthecampaign.

“lexington’s respome to Mayor
Baesler's challenge has been out-
standing,“ Coldiron said.

By reaching the Fund‘s goal, the
Lexington art community is eligible
for $250,000 from the Lexington-
Fayette Urban County Government.
Lexington’s art community is also
eligible for an additional $112,000
from Frankfort and the National En-
dowment for the Arts.

“We feel that a viable arts com-
munity is good business for all of [B
and it helps to make Lexington the
unique place that it is,“ said Chair-
man of First Security Bank W.L.
Rouse Jr., in a press release. “A
healthy arts program not only en-
riches our community but enhances
our economic development efforts in
Lexington and central Kentucky."

This year, the Fund for the Arts
more than doubled its number of
contributors from last year, raising

UK settles to pay
$14,000 to minority

By C.A. DUANE BONIFER
Editorial Editor

UK has agreed to pay a black doc-
tor, who had worked in its orthoped—
ic surgery division, up to $14,000 for
alleged racial harassment he re-
ceived while on the job.

Dr. Donald Douglas, a graduate of
the UK medical school, alleged that
while he was a resident at the UK
Medical Center in the orthopedic di-
vision, he was harassed by other
doctors because he was black. Doug-
las was the only black in his divi-
sion.

The Kentucky Human Rights
Commission began investigating the
incident in April 1987 and found that
Dr. 5 “had a legtimate com-
plaint," said Galen Martin, exec-
utive director of the commission.

UK denied there was any discrimi-
nation, Martin said, but agreed to
allow Dr. Douglas back on the staff
and pay him up to $14,000 — $12,000
in “lost time” and up to $2,000 in
travel expenses.

Dr. Douglas has been practicing in

He will return to the staff tomorrow.

Dr. Douglas has refused to talk to
the press about the incident. Martin
said.

Nancy Ray, the UK attorney who
handles affirmative action cases,
could not be reached for comment.

Dr. Emery Wilson, the interim
dean of the College of Medicine, said
the incident resulted from a “misun-
derstanding."

“My feeling was that this was a
misunderstanding between Dr.
Douglas and the faculty. . . . I was
never aware of any problems he
had,“ Dr. Wilson said. “I‘m pleased
to see this worked out."

As part of the settlement UK also
agreed to establish an affirmative
action program for minorities who
apply in the orthopedic division,
Martin said. Whenever a minority
applies for a position in the orthope-
dic division his or her application
will be placed in a separate file.
Each time a vacancy occurs in the
division the file will be checked.

Computerized
registration
to start in fall

By THOMAS J. SULLIVAN
Editor in Chief

UK Students will no longer have to
advance register on Course Request
Forms (bubble sheets) or wait
months to find out whether they re-
ceived the courses they requested.
Beginning this fall, students will ad-
vance register through a computer
that will supply them with their
schedule immediately.

The new registration method is in-
corporated in the Student Informa
tion System, a new system pur-
chased by UK for about $900,000
(mine for the database and
$400,000 for the software), said Ran-
dall Dahl, University registrar.

“The new system is going to take
advance registration and Adddrop
and smush them together," Dahl
said.

Instead of requesting a schedule

The operator will be able to in-
form the student immediately of
course closings and possible alterna-
tive sections. When the student is
through registering on computer, he
or she should be able walk away
with their confirmed schedule, Dahl
said, which will eliminate some of
the need for Add-drop.

“You are being registered right
there,” Dahl said. “Someone is giv-
ing you a confirmed ticket that you
are in the class."

Eugene Williams, vice president
for information systems, said he is
pleased with the system.

“I think, particularly as you look
at this (in the) long term, it’s going
to be a very positive move," Wil-
liams said.

But before the new system is con-
sidered positive it is going to require
some behavior changes on the part
of the student body, Dahl said.

Teen-agers from 23 Kentucky
counties are spending eight weeks of
their summer vacation going to
school and working at UK.

For the third summer consecutive
summer, Project SOAR and UK are
giving 114 teen-agers, ages 14 to 16,
on-the-job and academic experience.

William Brown, Project SOAR
headmaster, said the program was
modeled after a Texas program,
Youth Oppportunities Unlimited.
Alice McDonald, former Kentucky
State Supertindent of Public Instruc-
tion, was impressed with the Texas
program and helped establish a sim-
ilar one at UK.

About 50 people, many UK stu-
dents or graduates, work as resident
counselors, teachers and tutors.

David Powers, a third-year dental
student and residence hall director,

Registration process will be made easier in fall with new computer system

Students won’t be able to register
until they receive an “invitation to
register."

Once an invitation has been re-
ceived, the student may register on
or after the date of the invitation.

Invitations will be sent out in
order of seniority. Students with the
most credit hours will receive their
invitations first and the students
with the least hours earned will re-
ceive their invitations last.

Seniority is “the fairest system to
use," Dahl said. “Progress toward a
degree is what we’re about.”

Dahl said students should be pre-
pared when they register under the
new system.

“The strategy . . . is going to have
to change," Dahl said. “You’re
going to have to have alternatives in
hand or in mind. You’ll not only
have to know what you want, but
you will have to know alternatives
(immediately)."

tration will have negative effects,

Hall. Many of them have been resi-
dent advisers.

“I play mother and father to 114
children," said Whiteny Barnes, a
resident counselor who has been
with Project SOAR for three years.

The students spend part of their
day receiving academic training in
English, math, reading, lifeskills
and career development.

The other part of the day is spent
between work and doing activities.

After the tutoring sessiors and
work is over, they can choose elec-
tive subjects such as, karate, weight
training, dance and the performing
arts.

During the first week students
were given the California Achieve-
ment Test. They will be tested again
before leaving. Brown said last
year‘s test scores showed an im~
provement of eight months to one
year in academic improvement, fol-
lowing the eight weeks of tutoring.

The students will be paid mini-
mum wage for working during the
day at various University depart-
ments.

keep $30 each week. At the end of
the eight-week session, students re-
ceive the rest of the money.

Project SOAR uses a behavioral
modification program to inforce its
rules. Each student is given 100
points and can loose a certain
amount if a rule is broken. The
points can be regained by doing
community services, such as picking
up trash. 1f the students lose too
many points, they could be sent
home.

Lisa Lillard of Kenton County said
she is saving her money for college.
She said she wants to be a child psy-
chologist or a social worker.

“I wanted to come so bad," she
said. ”It's fun, but I miss my
mom."

Lillard said she was homesick for
a few days and called her mom and
told her she wanted to come home.
Her mom told her to stay one more
day and see if things got better.

Not everyone gets homesick. Jim
Short of Boone County was celebrat-
ing his 16th birthday with his new

Because of the personalization of
the new registration method, the
time span of registration is also
going tochange.

“Advance registration, imtead of
an eight-day period, will become
kind of a five-week period and the

friends from Project SOAR. He said
he did not get homesick, but did
have trouble sleeping the first night
away from home.

“I’m very happy to be here," he
said. “The (high school) counselor
called eight students (about the pro-
gram), I was the only one to follow

nasou for that is because we are
filing with people and not CRFs,"
heaaid.

Despite all the changes, Dahl said
the new procedure should not take
much more time than the old sys-
tem.

“For students it really won‘t be
that much different than it is now,"
Dahl said. “You should walk away
from this with pretty much a con—
firmedschedule."

The system will begin in the fall
with advance registration for the
1909 spring semester. Computer ter-
minals and operators will be located
in the Student Center for students to
do their scheduling.

But this will change, Williams
said.

“The objective of this system is to
move it to the college level," he
said.

Eventually, the University's plan
is to put college advisers on line to
the system so that a student can see
their adviser and schedule their
classes at the same time.

Program provides teens with academic and work experience

through with it.“

Lillard said that some of her
friends told her they could make
more money staying home and
working, but she said she was glad
tocome toUK.

“I'll have something to show for
this summer,” she said.

Florence Thorne hits the road, takes her artwork to public

By BETSY WADE
Contributing Writer

“Art Near the Pathways," a col-
laborative project by local artist
Jack Wemmer and Transylvania
University art professor Florence
Thorne, is an original idea of the
two to design large—scale sculpture.
that will be viewed along interstates
[-75 and 1-64 in the greater Lexing-
ton area.

“It was just a conversation travel-
ling along the highway one day,"
Thorne said. “I do a tremendous
amount of driving, so I thought I’d
do something for the highway trav-
eller other than signs."

Thorne and Wemmer presented
the idea to Lexington Mayor Scotty
Baesler and the Kentucky Arts
Council. Baesler and the council
liked the proposal and a financial

plan was discussed. The funds for,

the project were raised through a
fund-matching project grant with
the Kentucky Arts Council. Dona-
tions were sought from community,
non-profit arts organizations and ed-
ucational organizations.

The four temporary art works will
be installed in a fashion similar to
the Burma-Shave signs of the 19305
and 19405. The pieces will be con-
structed from natural materials
gathered from the area.

The sculptures are scheduled to go
up sometime this summer. Thorne
said there is a month's worth of pa-
perwork and planning before they
can be installed.

Once installed, the four pieces will
remain for approximately one year.

“I enjoy building things with a be-
ginning and an end because we (the
human race) are temporary,"
Thorne said.

The process will be documented
on videotape and by still photo
graphs. The documentation will be
presented in an exhibition at Trans-
ylvania University's Morlan Gallery
at the end of the year.

The purpose of the project is to
bring art to the public while gener-

ating a desire for more public art in
the Lexington area.

"In galleries and museums, art is
for a select group. I wanted to do it
for the masses. so you have to take

it to the people," said Thorne. “My
intent is to also cause the viewer to
wonder, to question things."

Thorne and Wemmer are current-
ly being sponsored by the Kentucky
Department for the Arts in Frank-
fu’t. The two Lexingtonians were se-
lected among six artists to install
temporary outdoor sculptures. The
exhibit runs until November.

Wemmer’s sculpture is con-
structed of an adobe-type clay, while
Thorne's is of sticks and steel wire.
Thorne’s sculpture represents the
exhibition in an advertisement in a
recent issue of Sculpture Magazine.

Although the two have distinct ar-
tistic styles. the highway project
will be the first project in which
they will have combined their cf-
forts.

Thorne is not only working on the
highway project but she is preparing

I guess “Bull Durham” writer/di-
rector Ron Shelton figured he could
take an All-American theme (base-
ball), pair it with something that ap
peals to a large number of ticket-
buyers (sex), throw in some religion
to attract anyone not interested and
end up with a sure hit. He was right.

“Bull Durham“ is an enjoyable
film which gives an off-beat look at
a group of people whose lives re-
volve around a minor league base-
ball team, the Durham Bulls.

Shelton, a former minor-leaguer
himself, has not only effectively por—
trayed the Southern lifestyle of Dur—
ham, N.C., he also has captured the
flavor of the minor leagues.

The minors is a “here today, gone
tomorrow“ world in which many
coaches and players are only pass-
ing through on their way to or from
the the major leagues.

Kevin Costner plays Crash Davis,
an aging player well on his way
down from the big leagues. Davis is
signed by the Bulls to catch for
Ebby Calvin Laroosh, played by
Tim Robbins.

Ebby, nicknamed “Nuke" for his
explosive “hall-of-fame arm,“ is
long on talent but short on brains
and desire. The Bulls' management
hopes Crash can help “mature the
kid.“

“Nuke“ believes in fast balls, fast
cars and fast women, but not nec-
essarily in that order. Crash, howev-

Each spring, Annie chooses one
player to share her affection, cul—
ture and baseball knowledge. And
invariably this player has the best
season of his career. This season she
must choose between the anxious,
inexperienced Nuke or the cool, sea-
soned veteran Crash.

I‘m sure it is this trio which led
publicists to tout “Bull Durham" as

a “major league love story." But
don’t be fooled, these people have
nothing more on their minds than
getting to home plate.

In a movie full of winning per-for-
mances, Costner hits it big. If noth-
ing else, “Bull Durham" is memora-
ble for Costner’s emergence from a
promising rookie actor to big-time,
major league star.

Robbins also shows quite a comic
touch as the out-of-control pitcher.
Sarandon, despite her blatant wan-
tonness, makes Annie a sympathet-
ic, likeable character. (Any girl who
reads Whitman aloud in place of
foreplay can‘t be without virtue. )

“Bull Durham“ is a tale of base-
ball, both as a sport and as a meta-
phor for America’s other favorite
pastime, but it also is about beliefs.

Jose, played by former UK foot-
ball player Rick Marzan, believes a
mix of crosses and voodoo will “un-
curse" his glove and save his game.

Jimmy, the team‘s self-designated
spiritual leader, believes in the
Bible, which leads him to a roman-
tic relationship with a woman.

Although Shelton's witty dialogue
occasionally comes across as unna-
tural, the script is filled with great
double entendres. He also gives us a
humorous, believable look inside the
mind of a minor leaguer, including
several amusing on-the-field, inside-
the—head dialogues.

“Bull Durham,” rated R, is cur-
rently playing at North Park and
South Park cinemas.

Healthy portion

University student health service provides many services that students may or may not need to use

By THOMAS J. SULLIVAN
Editor in Chief

UK students get a healthy portion
of services for a $50 health fee, said
Jean Cox, student health service ad-
ministrator.

“Basically what it (the health fee)
covers are visits to the health serv-
ice — unlimited (medical and men-
tal care),“ Cox said. “If you were
paying dollar-for-dollar for that
you‘d be paying about $400."

Almost everything except care for
accidents (broken bones. other inju«
ries) and inpatient care (operations,
serious illnesses) are covered by the
health fee.

0n the surface, it appears the only
other reason a student would visit
the health service would be for a
runny nose or sore throat. But Cox
is quick to point out the numerous
services the health service provides.

The most obvious service, and the
most popular, is care for illnesses.
But there are many other facets of
care provided by the health service.

oLaboratory and X-ray services.

for an illness are covered by the
health fee, Cox said. However, high-
technology tests such as ultrasound,
brain scan and ”lab tests and X-
rays ordered by (physicians) other
than Heath Service physicians" are

 

“We do a lot with what we have and we’ve got
high-caliber people on our staff.”

not covered, according to the Stu-
dent Health Service Handbook.

cGynecological services are pro-
vided for women by the health serv-
ice, including Pap tests.

Female students can take advan-
tage of examinations and consulta-
tions in relation to gynecological
problems. Pregnancy testing and
counseling, contraception informa-
tion, counseling and examination
are also covered under the health
fee.

~Physical examinations that are
required under certain situations
are covered by the health fee. How-
ever, the handbook states that “gen-
erally routine physical examinations
are not necessary for college-age
students who don’t have symp-
toms.“

OHospital charges for an illness
that is treated in the UK medical
center when the health service is
closed are also covered under the

health fee. However, any charges by
the physician are not covered.

-To go along with the care of a
sickness. the service also pr0vides
students commonly used medicines
such as decongestants, cough medi-
cine, antacids and some prescription
drugs for short-term therapy.

But the health service takes care
of other health needs, such as der-
matological care and some allergy
shots are c0vered under the health
fee.

The health fee also helps support
the counseling and testing center
where both couples and individuals
can seek couseling for most prob-
lems, including personal and career
oriented.

In addition, Cox said there are
services the health service provides
that “you can‘t put on a list."

tween jobs. The script is based on
growing up in his small Kentucky
hometown. If he gets the finan-
cial support, Ballou said he wants
to direct and produce the film in
Williamsburg, using some of the
natives as set workers and ex-
tras.

For now, Ballou has temporari-
ly placed “Dotsburg” plans on
the backburner. He recently left

Kentuckian wants to direct his own film

for Los Angeles to find an agent
and sell his scripts.

Before leaving, however, he
was able to catch the Durham,
NC, premiere of “Bull Dur~
ham."

Although Ballou said he en-
joyed working in the film, he said
he found it difficult to concen-
trate on what he saw because he
saw the film from behind the

scenes .

Although set etiquette dictates
that crew members “don't just
go up and talk to (the actors),“
Ballou said Costner “seemed like
a regular guy.“ He said Costner
threw parties at his house for ev-
eryone working on the movie.

Ballou said Susan Sarandon
was often “distant . . . intense,“
as was her costar Tim Robbins.
