SAN FRANCISCO ,.. Wealthy inves-
tors who lost $12 million in the collapse
of Kentucky‘s famed Spendthrift Farm
were portrayed to a jury yesterday as
innocent victims of fraud and as after-
the-fact whiners.

The “voracious appetite for money"
of Brownell Combs ll. then—president of
the thoroughbred stable. and the weak
ness or dishonesty of his chief legal ad»
viser, Charles Hembree, led them to
lure investors by withholding crucial in-
formation. said Vaughn Walker. lawyer
for most of the 14 plaintiffs

Claiming they would not have put up
the money had they known of Spendth-
rift‘s true financial condition. the inves-
tors, who include fashion designer (Tal—
vin Klein and several prominent

Spendthrift farm was a dangerous 1
deal, according to lawyers in suit

horsemen. are seeking damages equal
to three times their losses.

But Hembree's lawyer. M. Laurence
Popofsky. said the investors “lost their
money in a speculative venture which
they knew was risky. and the come
quences of which they wish to visit on
others."

Defense lawyers blamed the stock
losses on a slump in the thoroughbred
industry.

The US. District Court jury also
heard from Garth Guy. the investment
banker who promoted the 1983 private
stock sale that led to the suit. Acting as
his own lawyer, Guy offered to take a
lie detector test and also noted that he
had invested $300,000 in Spendthrift
stock.

Spendthrift. in Lexington. Ky.. was
the home of such champions as Seattle
Slew and Affirmed. both Triple Crown

wmners. The stable filed for bankruptcy
last December.

Some of the wax stock offering was
intended to raise money for future in-
heritance taxes on the death of Spendth-
rift‘s founder, Leslie (‘ombs ll. Now in
his 805. he settled his portion of the suit
by agreeing to pay $2 million, according
to court papers.

The remaining defendants are Brow-
nell Combs; llembrec and his Lexmg—
ton law firm. Kincaid, Wilson, Schaefer
& llembree; and (luy. who said he rep-
resented himself because he couldn‘t al-
t'ord a lawyer.

The 14 investors in the suit are among
35 who put up $32 million for about a
one—third ownership in Speiidthrift. four
months before stock was offered to the
public. Some private investors declined
to sue. and others have settled their
cases.

About 75 students gathered in the
Complex Commons last night to show
that parties could be held without the
help of alcoholic beverages.

The dance provided the opportunity to
kick off the Student Government
Association's Designated Driver Pro-
gram.

The dance. designed to raise money
for the program. was held in the (‘omv

night.

Students danced the night away at the Designated Driver Kick~Oft Dance in the Complex-Commons last night.

CARE Dance held to kick off start
of SGA desginated driver program

Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity. and the ()f—
fice of Substance Abuse Prevention. t

Music was provided by the groups
Anonymous and Bad Habit.

Guest speakers were Commonwealth
Attorney Ray Larson; City Council Rep-
resentative-At Large Pam Miller; and
3rd District Representative Deborah
Hensley.

The dance was implemented to pro-
vide an alternative to alcohol for stu-
dents. but students aren‘t ready for
“partying" without alcohol. according
to Substance Abuse Prevention Coordi-
nator Lisa Stofer.

"Everything that we do plants anoth-
er seed that maybe it‘s not OK to drink
and drive. maybe there's an alterna-
tive."Stofersaid.

but thought more people would have at
tended if there had been more publicity

“I think it was a really good idea."
Shaninger said. “I know they have had
a lot of trouble getting people out here.
but I think the whold designated driver
program is a good idea."

“I think it's a great program. because
instead of reprimanding students it
gives people who otherwise go to bars
an opportunity to get. and do something
without drinking." said Mark Ehinger.

Ehinger. a member of Alpha Tau

idea for the dance a month ago, but he
discovered that the idea also was being
thought about by other groups.

 

 

UK Medical students initiate

By BETH TON“
Contributing Writer

Two UK medical students initiated a city
ordinance forcing establishments that sell
or serve alcohol to post warnings about al-
cohol ‘5 effects on pregnancy.

Robert Bratton and Scott Black, third-
year medical students. worked on their
original proposal for more than a year.
Bratton came up with the idea after at-
tending a session on Fetal Alcohol Syn-
drome at a drug and alcohol conference in
SouthCarolina.

Bratton and Black were studying FAS in
a medical class when Bratton suggested

that he and Black push for warning labels
on liquor bottles.

Infants with FAS can suffer from central
nervous system problems ranging from hy-
peractivity to mental retardation.

After doing some initial research. they
found that warning labels on liquor bottles
had been tried earlier. but were defeated
because of the liquor industry‘s strong lob-
bying.

“There was no way the two of us could
go up against the liquor industry." Black
said.

Instead, the two students decided to
work at the local level and contacted Mich-
elle Metts with the Division of Substance
Abuse in Frankfort.

ordinance

Metts gave them information on the syn-
drome. and the two students began to pur-
sue an ordinance for warning signs.

The signs will read: "Warning: Drinking
Alcoholic Beverages During Pregnancy
Can Cause Birth Defects. "

“We could not have gotten that ordi-
nance passed (without the help of Bratton
and Black)." Metts said. “It would have
bad to come from the public,“

Bratton and Black said they wanted to
inform the public about the dangers of al-
cohol and pregnancy.

“We are not trying to make decisions for
pregnant mothers. but we at least want to

Military baffled by disappearance of soldier

By GEORGE BOEHMER
Associated Press

FRANKFURT, West Germany v
The US. Army said yesterday it is
baffled by the disappearance of a
“good, cleancut" American soldier
who had access to classified infor-
mation and vanished near the East
German border.

An Army spokesman, Lt. Col.
Jake Dye, said there was not
enough information to say if Spec.
4 Michael A. Peri had defected
Dye acknowledged a portable com-
puter was missing from an intelliv
gence office where Peri worked

Peri, of Laguna Niguel, Calif,
has been listed as “absent without
leave" since he failed to show up

for work Feb. 21 at the 11th Ar-
mored Cavalry Regiment in l-‘ulda.
65 miles northeast of Frankfurt

No days later, officials search
ing for Peri found his US. Army-
vehicle undamaged near the border
town of Obersuhl, about 35 miles
northeast of Fulda.

“Peri was authorized to drive the
vehicle and had logged it out prop
erly." Dye said.

Stars and Stripes, the Army‘s
unoffiCial newspaper. quoted Dye
as saying “the circumstances of
that vehicle being found so close to
the border are definitely suspi-
cious ”

[)y'e told The Assriciated Press
later the newspaper was putting it

 

“In fact, he had been promoted and nominated
for ‘Soldier of the Month’ twice in the year he
has been here. That’s what makes it so baffling.
From all indications, everybody in his unit has
the same feelings. They’re all very surprised.”

"a little too strongly," but he didn‘t
deny making the statement.

Peri worked as an electronics
warfare signal specialist and was
responsible for operating equip-
ment that identifies and locates

Governors at conference urge

By H. JOSE!" HEBI‘IRT
Assomated Press

WASHINGTON A A group of
governors and former governors
urged the Bush administration
Wednesday to propose acid rain
legislation that would reduce sulfur
dioXide emissions by at least to
million tons by the end of this cen
tury

Such emissmn reductions are
needed for the legislation “to DO
taken serously in the acid rain de
bate.” Gov. Rudy Perpich of Min-

nesota, one of the meeting partici
pants, told a news conference

Perpich is the new chairman of
the Alliance for Acid Rain Control.
a coalition of governors. industry
representatives and t‘llVll‘Olllltt‘lllilt
ists working toward reducing acid
rain. which is caused largely by in
dustrial pollution and emissions
from coal-burning power plants

But Perpich and Anthony Earl.
former governor of Wisconsin. said
the meeting \‘l‘llh Richard K lteil
ly'. head ot the l-Jiivironinental Pro
tectioii Agency. produced no tiriii
commitment from iteilly on specit

1c pollution reductions the adminis-
tration might seek.

Nevertheless, said Perpich, “we
are optimistic that this is the year
for acid rain legislation" and an
end to “years of acrimony and
deadlock on this issue."

President Bush has said that one
of his top environmental priorities
is to submit to Congress legislation
aimed at reducing the industrial
and other pollutants that cause
acid rain, (‘ongressional leaders
have said they expect to vote on an
acid rain bill l)_\' summer

as radar. He has been stationed in
West Germany since March 4, 1988.
Asked about the possibility Peri
defected, Dye said, “We certainly
have no reason to believe that.

There were no signs of distress
according to his colleagues and
family. We just don‘t have any in-
dications."

Peri had an “active normal so-
cial life" and a “perfect record as
a good clean-cut soldier." Dye
said.

“In fact, he had been promoted
and nominated for ‘Soldier of the
Month‘ twice in the year he has
been here," Dye added. “That’s
what makes it so baffling. From all
indications, everybody in his unit
has the same feelings. They’re all
very surprised. "

Dye confirmed the Stars and
Stripes report that a portable com-
puter was missing from the office
where Peri had worked. But Dye

said Peri )‘had not progressed very
far in computers except for basic
word processing."

A search of Peri‘s living quarters
showed he had left his personal be-
longings behind, Dye said.

The spokesman said investiga.
tors are looking into all possibil-
ites, including foul play.

In March 1987, former US. Pvt.
Wade E. Roberts defected with his
West German girlfriend to the So-
viet Union from a US. Army unit
in Giessen, about 40 miles north of
Frankfurt. Roberts returned to the
United States in November 1987
and was court-martialed as a de—
serter.

Bush to act on acid rain

pressed concern that federal legis-
lation might punish states that al—
ready have taken aggressive action
or producers of western, low-sul—
phur coal

Gov, ltoy‘ Romer of Colorado,
who also participated in the meet-
ing, said that federal legislastion
should include “flexibility" for dif~

11- [[0121

ferent states to meet the emission
reductions.

For example, the governors said,
the coalition opposed a federal re-
quirement for utilities to install ex-
pensive “scrubbers” to reduce sul—
phur emissions or for the federal
government to provide subsidies

for the installation of such scrub»
bers.

Perpich said the group told Reil-
ly that requiring scrubbers “will
double the cost of cleanup,
weaken political support in the
West and South and increase global
warming problems" because of iii-
creased carbon dioxide emissions.

John Baird proves one man’s garbage
can become another man’s work of art

Hy VICKI (ERI'I'I‘UN
Staff Writer

“We have to bring Kentucky into
the 20th century before it's over."
cxplaincd John Baird. UK graduate
student and “street artist". The
completed work of his M1" A. ex—
hibit will open Sunday at the Fine
Arts Building with a reception
from 35 pm.

Baird began forming his exhibit
Feb. 16 With a bare room and a
public notice informing future
Viewers of the transformation the
room would soon undergo. In the
following weeks. Baird's material
for sculpture formulated along the
floor of the gallery

Sticking out from the mound of
Baird‘s creation IS rollcdup, rusty
barbed wirc, tangled colored wirc.
or a crackcd front windshield from
a car.

"I find my material anywhere
from construction sites. to scrap
yards. to Dave's Body and Repair

sculpture for the past four years.
He explained that these thrown
away products resembled art to
him and "one thing list] to another
and soon I was making my
sculpture with them "

People generally see a chair as
something to Sit on. or a grocery
cart something to wheel around
groceries with. but lhcsc objects
are seen dillcrcntly in Baird's
work. A cratc that hold 24 bottles
of ()ld Milwaukcc bccr now bulges
With him rccls. ll chain link. and
an irikpcn. 'l‘his lS set to lhc side
on top iii a garbagc can rcscmbling
somconc's morning trash.

Baird's i-xhibit rcwals how he
has iniprcsswcly ('iillltll‘lllifd
chairs. the hood of .‘l car. .‘i blcyclc.
and a mop intoarl

Still. the concert was exceptional in
both its intensity and quality.

Although Louisville (lardcns is
smaller than where most bigger
bands play, the sizc of the
auditorium only complemented
I{.E.M.‘s unique sound, The per-
cussion. bass and lead Singer Mi-
chael Stipc's voice were crystal
clear. without a hint of an echo or
subterfuge.

There was no elaborate sound

decorated the stage was R.E.M.'s
charismatic members and their
