The KEN- TUCKIAN staff Conducted a tpizza racei' to inform you, the reader, about delivery service and guarantees. Five staff members called Sir Pizza. Dominok, Little Caee sarts, Godfatherts and Pizza Hut. Each member called a dif- ferent place, ordered identical pizzas, gave the location of room 032 in the Journalism Building, which is difficult to find because it is located in the center of campus, and asked the phone operators the exact time they had, so each member could time the pizza exactly right. After a period of 30 minutes, the pizzas began to Hcross the finishline.H Not surprisingly, Domintfs stuck to it; 30 minute delivery guarantee down to the wire and tied with Godfather's in a photo finish. Placing third was Pizza Hut with a track time of 39 minutes. Showing in a time of 56 minutes was Little Caesark with its two for the price of one pizza deal. Although the staff thought that Piz7a Hut was the best, students often ordered from Little Caesar's. ttlt's a better bargain for your moneyf Quid freshman market, ing major, Jaci Downing And Iaxtt but not least, Sir Pizza de- titeretl its pizza to the finish tineinatime ofonehour. Guaranteex differed on deliv- ery time and delivery charge. Delivery was tree except Little which charged One t'aexar's. dollar for delivery. The only es- tablishment to guarantee its pizza would be in hand in 30 minutes or less was DomimYS. If the delivery man was late, Dominok would take three dol- lam off the charge. Dominok offer was void during rain- storms, when it snowed, during concerts that were held in Rupp Arena, and when UK played football at Commonwealth Sta- dium. The only business that gave no time limit on delivery was Sir Pizza. Managers of the other companies said it would take any where from 30-45 min- utes to deliver. When ordering a pizza, stu- dents considered the following things. First, the day and time the order was placed. If one or- dered a pizza on a Friday at 7:00 p.m., it would take longer because of the dinner rush and because Friday is usually very busy. Secondly, students had to regard where on campus they were located When Little Cae- sarts delivery man arrived, he looked tired, hot, and very cone fused because it took him 25 minutes to find the Journalism building. Lastly, students had to consider the possibility of pizzas ordered by others on campus. Four pizzas were delivered on campus by Sir Pizza before ours was delivered to us. Now that you have the data we have accumulated, iv: yOur turn to decide what pizza you want to put in the Hwinnerts Circle. Elizabeth Moore
