LOS ANGELES — Music journalist ChetFlippo, editorial director for the Country Mu-sic Television cable channel and its website,CMT.com, tells a fascinating story in his latestNashville Skyline column about embattledpublishing mogul Rupert Murdoch’s role inthe waning days of Elvis Presley’s life.
Now that Murdoch and his News Corp.are embroiled in the cellphone hacking scan-dal that’s rocking the United Kingdom, Flipporevisits the period in the 1970s when the Aus-tralian media giant was lobbying to bring hisgossip-mongering ways to the U.S. by acquir-ing two Texas newspapers — the San AntonioNews and the San Antonio Express. “He latercombined both newspapers as the San AntonioExpress-News, but early on, he instructed theNews staff to turn the paper into a ‘scream-er.’And the paper soon did so. “With avengeance,” Flippo writes. “The staff beganintroducing Murdoch’s patented tabloid for-mula of sensationalism, sex, celebrities, crimeand corruption. The facts be damned.”
Flippo notes Murdoch’s campaign againstthe Rolling Stones’ 1975 tour, the staging ofwhich included a giant inflatable phallus,which succeeded in prompting the group toforgo that particular prop when the tourreached San Antonio — the only U.S. tourstop where they abandoned it. “That kind ofinstitutionalized anti-rock company policy,”Flippo writes, “may well have been what led
to the book that may have helped to kill ElvisPresley.” He’s referring to the salacious 1977book “Elvis: What Happened?” based entirelyon stories told by former bodyguards Red andSonny West and Dave Hebler, who recentlyhad been fired by Presley’s father, Vernon.
“Objectively speaking, the book was a trueMurdoch hatchet job,” Flippo says. “It laid outall of Elvis’ dirty laundry that you didn’t want— or need — to know ... It became a best-seller, and the profits went to Murdoch’s NewsCorp., not to the author. It was written bySteve Dunleavy, a hard-drinking, controversialAustralian reporter greatly favored by Mur-doch ... “For the first time,” Flippo writes, “thebook revealed the full extent of Elvis’ com-plete and total dependence on a long list ofprescription drugs. And it was not a pretty sto-ry. It was a virtual pharmacopia of drugs andother sundry and tawdry personal details aboutElvis. Close Elvis associates have said thebook had a devastating effect on Presley.”
Flippo adds considerable detail from hisown interviews with Dunleavy about his dubi-ous ethical practices while working for Mur-doch, which aren’t pretty either. Near the end,Flippo points out a conspicious bit of timing:“The book was published in early August of1977. Elvis died on the floor of his bathroomin Graceland two weeks later, on Aug. 16,1977.”

entomology at UK.“He was out of town,"
Herbst said. "However, he didrespond later and confirmedthat the action we had takenwas the appropriate action totake."
Herbst said he also re-
searched through publicationsand periodicals to becomemore familiar with the issueand preventative measures,and also so he could providehis staff with factual informa-tion.
I have asked our custodialstaff to continue to do a deepinspection of all lounge furni-ture in the Student Centerbuildings, which they have
been methodically conduct-ing,” Herbst said in the email.“They found evidence of an-other bed bug in the StudentCenter addition TV lounge sowe closed that area also, andwe are continuing the inspec-tion through the building.”
Allen, a student in theSchool of Public Health, de-scribed bed bugs as blood-feeding insects that are most
active at night.“They aren’t easily con-
trolled because they reside incracks and crevices of furni-ture,” he said. “They can evengo unnoticed for extended pe-riods of time until infestationsbecome severe.”
The best way to preventbed bugs is to remain con-stantly vigilant, and, if suspi-cious of them, to be proactive
in seeking the advice of atrained professional, Allensaid.
According to an articlewritten by Potter, a bed bugspecialist at UK, bed bugswere a rarity until only recent-ly when they began to make acomeback in the U.S., whichis possibly a result of immi-gration or travel.
Herbst said his staff opted
for the most comprehensiveremoval plan the pest compa-ny provides, which is a heat-ing process in affected areasthat kills the insect, any eggsor larvae. OPC is returning tocomplete that process on Fri-day, which is the earliest theycould return. Lounge areaswill remain closed until then.

The posted signs encourage UK employ-ees to compile a list of damaged property tosubmit to Ameresco Project Manager DavidRowland.
Blanton said the damage was not insignifi-cant, but “the good thing is that they were ableto contain the leaking to three floors” becauseof swift action taken by contractors.
He said UK also has “asked the manufac-turer to examine the part in question to deter-mine if there are long-term issues.”

At a university as well-known asKentucky, students have a duty both inacademics and in athletics to act as a
representation of allthings we wish to be.Our student bodydoesn’t stand in ticketlines for hours becausethey just support theirteams. They do it be-cause the rush of a C-A-T-S chant, or thepossibility of being apart of the eRUPPtionzone, makes all thosenights studying anddays listening feellike something a little
more exciting than it is. To give yourselfover to something wholly unique andfeel like a part of the athletics is half the
reason sports aren’t a way of passing thetime, but a passionate moment in whichyou feel close to glory.
But that also leaves us with a re-sponsibility. The University of KentuckyWildcats did not become legendary with-out trials and tribulations. Through errorand correction, those in charge and thosein the background watching have helpedto foster and grow a program intounimaginable proportions. It is only be-cause fans stood up and demanded thebest that the program became the best.
So in this moment, right before anew year of athletics begins at UK, Iwant to remind you that as fans, it isokay to question our program, or towant to understand exactly how it func-tions. Only through acknowledgingwhat goes into the structure of our pro-gram can we truly say that we have ac-
tually invested in it. Sports bring peopletogether. It has been proven time andagain by those UK fans crowded intostadiums, around their televisions, andin bars all across the commonwealth —and even across the nation. And afterthis level of dedication, I believe wehave the right to want to know and un-derstand our program better. In this newera of sports, men’s basketball headcoach John Calipari and football headcoach Joker Phillips have ushered in alevel of access to our teams that previ-ously was unprecedented, and this, inmany ways, is an opportunity.
For the first time in a long time, a UKfan can feel as if he or she is taking partin an experience, not just witnessing itfrom far away. Take advantage. This is ourchance to not only stand behind our team,but to truly be a part of one.

When a college athletereceives an All-Americanaward in his or her respec-tive sport, it is comparableto a member of the filmindustry winning an Oscar.In other words, it is the goldstandard of their craft. Ifwinning one of these presti-gious awards is special, thenwinning three of theseawards is remarkable.
Winning three All-American awards in his timeat the collegiate level isexactly what men’s tennissenior Eric Quigley hasdone. The accomplishmentmakes Quigley one of onlyfive men’s tennis players toever receive three All-American awards in theircareer at UK.
Quigley is from PeweeValley, Ky., where he attendedhigh school at South Oldham.His tennis-playing days goback to his childhood, wherehe knew he loved the gamefrom the first time he pickedup a racket.
“I loved tennis as soon as Istarted playing,” Quigley said.“I just didn’t know I wouldend up being where I am now.I could never have imaginedthis.”
Coming out of highschool, Quigley was rated theNo. 1 recruit in the state ofKentucky and eighth in thecountry overall.
That hype didn’t neces-sarily entail becoming one ofthe most successful and ac-complished players in UKhistory after only his thirdseason.
“I thought Eric was goingto be very good,” men’s ten-nis head coach Dennis Emerysaid. “He exceeded my ex-pectations so early.”
Quigley received his mostrecent All-American award inthe singles category, after fin-
ishing the season with record-making accolades.
But he hasn’t let the suc-cess go to his head.
“Being in that group, it’sa really big honor,” Quigleysaid. “So many great playershave come through this pro-gram, and I couldn’t havedone it without my coaches,like Dennis Emery andCedric Kauffmann.”
With the help of Emeryand Kauffmann, Quigley hasbeen able to improve his shotselection and his serve.
Emery said that Quigleyhas earned himself a spotamongst the greatest playersto ever attend UK.
“I think he’s right there,”Emery said. “We’ve had fourplayers that have been rankedone or two in the country andhe’d be right up there.”
Quigley finished the sea-son with 45 wins, tied formost all time at UK. Hebecame the sixth player inKentucky history to competein a collegiate tennis grandslam final, and he also wonthe Ohio Valley Regional sin-gles title. He was namedSoutheastern ConferencePlayer of the Week for theweek of April 4-10, and wasalso named first team All-Southeastern Conference,making it two consecutiveyears with All-SEC honors.
Quigley was ranked ashighly as the No. 2 player inthe nation during the year andhe never fell below the No. 8-ranked player in the country.
He also helped lead themen’s team to the quarterfi-nals of the NCAAChampionships, a No. 8national ranking in theIntercollegiate TennisAssociation final polls and anew school record for wins ina season with 29.
“Eric is everything you’relooking for in terms of a col-lege player,” Emery said.“He’s all about team and
works exceptionally hard. Hemakes everyone around himbetter.”
If Quigley can keep up hispace and finish his career atKentucky with another All-American level year, he couldfind himself tied with JesseWitten for the UK men’s ten-nis record for All-Americanawards received in a careerwith five. He would have torepeat his sophomore cam-paign efforts which earnedhim All-American awards inboth the doubles and singlescategories to achieve the mile-stone.
Witten’s record is the ulti-mate benchmark for a UKmen’s tennis player and,accordingly, Quigley tries touse it as both motivation and agoal.
“It’s a really tough goal toreach,” Quigley said. “I try totake it one match and one yearat a time.”
His coach is confident inQuigley’s abilities.
“I think he can reach Wit-ten’s mark,” Emery said. “Hecan definitely do that.”
Quigley is not lookingpast his senior year, but hedoes have aspirations for lifeafter college.
“I want to try professionaltennis after next year,”Quigley said.
“It has always been adream of mine.”
On the professional cir-cuit, players like NovakDjokovic, Rafael Nadal andRoger Federer are householdnames. With one final year tohone his craft, Quigley knowsthese are players he couldpotentially face once he hasleft the friendly confines ofLexington.
“I have a lot of workahead of me to be on thatlevel,” Quigley said.
“If I put in a lot of hardwork, I hope to one day beable to play with guys like thatin grand slams.”
