said the forum was very beneficial to both
fraternities and sororities.
Important ideas about alcohol awareness
and university relations were brought up in
the open forum atmosphere. Greeks should
all be working on ways to improve their
chapters, she said.
"The reason this was important is because
it was a chance to unify everyone on the poli
cies," she said.
“We came together on ideas to improve.
It is good to understand that we're all work
ing for the same thing," Greaves said.
Webster hopes the Greek presidents relay
the ideas about ways to improve the Greek
System to their chapters.
He said this was the first time men and
women from all the chapters were able to sit
down and talk about problems and possible
solutions.
Dr. Mike Leese, coordinator of Greek af
fairs, urged students to take advantage of
every possible opportunity to make Greeks
more visible.
He told students to let themselves be
known as Greeks in Fish Camp, The Big
Event and all of the other activities they are
involved in.
"There are a lot of opportunities out
there," he said. "You simply have to take ad
vantage of them."
Police suspect Senate
candidate in shooting
Bullet wounds wife of representative
Vol. 9
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MAITLAND, Fla.— A legisla
tive candidate Monday denied
any involvement in the shooting
of his opponent's wife, although
police said they found a gun hid
den in his apartment and a bullet-
riddled blanket in his car.
Police said Eric Kaplan has so
far declined to cooperate in their
investigation into Sunday's shoot
ing of Attorney Judith Starks, wife
of Republican State Rep. Robert
Starks.
Kaplan's attorney issued a
statement saying Kaplan denied
"any involvement and knowledge
concerning this matter."
Kaplan is the Democratic can
didate for the suburban Orlando
seat.
Mrs. Starks was shot through
the calf early Sunday as she sat up
in bed.
Five shots were fired from the
back yard into the couple's home.
Mrs. Starks, 47, was treated
hospital.
No arrests were made and jt
thorities were awaiting crime Is
results.
"It appears that we're t
a very strong case against Mr. Ki
plan. We hope that the crime li
tests will solidify our case
him," Seminole County Sheriff
Spokesman George Proechelsai
Monday.
Proechel said an eyewitness fol
lowed Kaplan's vehicle toKi
plan's apartment complex in Cas
selberry, where police recovered
five-shot .38-caliber revolver an:
a handwritten note with Stark 1
address on it.
In Kaplan's car, deputies foml
a blanket riddled with five
holes, apparently used to i
the gun, authorities said.
Detectives attempted to que>
tion Kaplan late Sunday, Proedie
said, "but he isn't cooperating
and has hired a lawyer.
