Pettit
holds

narrow

lead

By LINDA (‘ARNES
Kernel Staff Writer

ACCORDING TO United Press In-
ternational reports, Mayor Foster Pettit
holds an official 535 vote lead with 90 of
Lexington‘s 135 preceincts counted.

With the race still too close to predict a
winner Pettit had 14,439 votes compared to
13,904 for opponent James Amato.

The unofficial tally early Wednesday
morning showed Amato with 20,129 votes
as opposed to Pettit’s 19,949 votes.

NONE OF THE figures include the 560
absentee ballots which will be tallied later
today. Local political observers say the
absentee ballots could be the deciding
factor in the race.

Pettit attributed the closeness of the
campaign to the massive advertising done
by Amato. He added television and radio
advertising was overwhelming and had
never been as intense in a local election.

Pettit cited taxes as the most important
issue in the race. “I think he (Amato)
presented a picture for the reduction of
taxes that was convincing to some people
although he changed his position near the
end of the race and I’m not sure the public
caught the distinction.

“I have said I would favor a tax
reduction when the merged government
was completed and had time to look at its
revenues and expenditures. After we had
sufficient money in the treasury I
proposed to recommend a tax reduction,”
Pettit said.

lN CONTRAST. Amato said it wasn't the
issue of taxes that made the election so
close. but the culmination of all issues.

When asked his plans for the merged
government should he win, Pettit said his
first step would be to pull together the
newly elected council and get their
opinions on what direction the city-county
government should take.

He also noted some additional merger
efforts such as the detention facility, the
road maintenance departments and
certain elements of financing and record
keeping that must be studied between now
and Jan. 1 when the new government
assumes office.

THE NEW MAYOR will head the first
metro government in Lexington and will
assume far more power than under the old
city charter. A lS-member council was
also elected and includes 12 district
representatives and three at-large
members.

Awareness lacking

at Food Services

After spending several thousand dollars remodeling the
Student Center Grille to fit the atmosphere of a quick ser-
vice hamburger joint, with new furniture. fresh paint and
other interior redesigning, it‘s a shame Food Services
doesn't take time to clean the eating area.

Generally around 7 pm. during the week, the Grille faces
a trash problem. Tables are covered with leftover food,
wrappers, bags, and plastic cups. The floor is marred with
beverage and food stains. Students, usually conscientious
about throwing away litter, find it hard to stuff more in the
overflowing garbage containers. They instead, walk away,
leaving the tables a mess. '

The Student Center Grille isn’t the only dirty eating spot
on campus though. The Complex grille is often found in the
same state of disarray.

Only the K-Lair, behind Haggin and Donovan Halls, is a
clean eating area. Although the number of students
frequenting this grille is less than that attending the others,
it is clear that at least one group of Food Services em-
ployees takes pride—in its operation.

Responsible, comcientious employees and alert students
would add much more to the appearance of these eating
places if they would guard against trash. Employees should
make sure that adequate disposal containers are always
available. Students, on the other hand, should use disposal
units and alert employees when a trash can is full.

 

NOW, ON WITH THE INVESTIGATION . . .

Fantasy under a full moon

WASHINGTON—While Cool Hand Dick
has been twitching and telling us what a
great pressure ballplayer he is, a theater
in Georgetown has been showing a flick
called “The Werewolf of Washington.”
The film isn‘t advertised as a
documentary, but when you think about
what‘s been going on around this town you
couldn‘t tell it from the plot.

“Jack Whittier, the President‘s press
secretary.“ was traveling in Tomania
where under a full moon he clubs a
werewolf to death with his silver-tipped
cane. However, he is bitten in the process
and doomed in his turn to be a werewolf.

Rl-ITl'RNING TO Washington, on the
first full moon he hairs over, grows fangs
and claws and sneaks out of the White
House to kill the wife of the Attorney
General, a woman who reminds us of
Martha Mitchell. Note the deviation from
reality. If this movie were a documentary,
it would be the Attorney General who was
found with his throat slit and his blood
sucked out.

Regaining his human form. Whittier
resumes his normal White House routine
until the next full moon when the poor
fellow hairs over again and picks as his
victim a woman newspaper publisher who

could be said to bear a resemblance to the
lady who owns the Washington Post. The
next victim is a Black Panther.

Whittier finally tries to tell the President
about his peculiar affliction, but the Chief
Executive won’t hear it. At length the
press secretary hairs over and begins
howling in the Pentagon‘s situation room.
He escapes into the basement of the
building where he attempts an attack on
Dr. Kiss, a gnome in a white smock who is
the President’s chief adviser.

RADIANT WITH PEACE and love, Dr.
Kiss is able to tame the werewolf for a
while. but the beast escapes and the cover-
up is on. It is exposed when Jack grows his
full-moon fangs in the Presidential
helicopter, frightens the beejeesus out of
the Chinese Prime Minister and then goes
after the boss himself. “Down, Boy!"
shrieks this cinematic President, who
lacks the real one's icy cool steel nerves in
a crisis. ”This is your President talking to
you!“

That has about as much effect as the
real-life Cool Hand Dick when he tries to
tranquillize the rabid pussy cats of the
White House press corps. The werewolf
bites him anyway and is only saved from

death when the President‘s daughter, a
girl with a bouffant hairdo, kills him with a
silver bullet. The movie ends with the
President hairing over and howling while
addressing the nation, so we never find out
if Congress refuses to impeach for lack of
evidence.

ON OUR SIDE OF fantasy, Julie doesn’t
have a silver bullet to save Daddy Cool
Hand. Nor will appearance on the Today
Show to state Papa‘s case to that small
jury of sympathetic Alpo Dog Food
salesmen convince anyone in this city that
her old man isn‘t suffering from a Tran-
sylvanian gypsy curse.

They sit around here waiting for the next
full moon of foreign affairs, arguing
symptoms and diagnoses. “He‘s a manic
depressive. . . no, he shows definite signs
of paranoia. . . well, I hear they‘ve got him
on tranks. . . absolutely not, there's a man
who needs uppers. Did you hear the White
House has him so spooked he can’t sleep at
night so they either have to dope him or
cart him up to Camp David?"

NOBODY KNOWS any facts, but the
Washington cocktail hour has begun to
sound like an emergency meeting of the
American Psychiatric Association.
There‘s even advance proofs floating

around of a book on the subject by a panel
of shrinks, but Cool Hand Dick says he‘s as
sound as an inflated dollar.

He has polarized and divided the city.
One-half thinks he's a yo—yo and the other
half swears he's a crook and murmurs
about him in Florida in the 1940's and the
Mafia. Almost everybody has little mid-
night terrors that he‘s going to use the
Army to get the country back in line.

THE COUNTRY is out of line. Even the
mail to Senator James Abourezk from his
South Dakota constituents shows it’. From
Langford a wire saying, “I, a Republican,
favor the impeachment of Nixon"; from
Letcher, “We think it imperative that the
legislative body stand up and be
counted"; from St. Paul‘s Indian Mission,
“He should be impeached“; from Volga.
“Urge that he be removed”; from
Yankton, “I want to add my voice in
support of efforts now being made to
impeach Mr. Nixon" and from Spearfish.
“President Nixon should be impeached."

When they’ve got your number in
Spearfish, S. Dak., it‘s even too late for a
coup d‘ etat. He's a goner for sure, by
impeachment or resignation, but
unhappily not before the next full moon.

The impeaching of the Presidents

By ARAM BAKSHIAN JR.

WASHINGTON—As a small boy I
witnessed the wave of rage and rebel-
lion that swept Washington when
Harry Truman sacked General Mac-
Arthur. The Truman Administration
had already experienced more than its
share of scandals (State and Justice
Departments, Internal Revenue and
White House staff, to name a few
disaster sites), and charges of “the
most corrupt Administration in Ameri-
can history" whistled through the air
like grapeshot.

Exultant voices of anti-Truman radio
commentators, such as Fulton Lewis
Jr., broadcast nightly promises that
impeachment was just around the cor-
ner. Opposition hardliners in the Con-
gress were not long in taking up the
call, warning the lonely figure in the
White House to get out before he was
kicked out.

For some reason, Clark Clifford, a
sometime contributor to these pages
and a Truman confidant, did not then
advocate resignation and the forma-
tion of a new “Government of national
unity."

The attack, of course, was made in
the name of outraged decency. A
cover given a few slender shreds of
plausibility by the misconduct not of
Truman but of some of his aides and
old political cronies. Then, too, there
was the famous Truman temper, often
directed at gentlemen of the fourth
estate. Whether it t00k the form of
malicious mimicry of the venerable
(but anti-Truman) newscaster, H. V.
Kaltenborn, or threatening the music
critic of The WashingtOn Post with a
fate ordinarily reserved for aspiring
oxen and boy sopranos, Harry Truman
seemed to seek out confrontations
with the press. However, since these
little collisions were not televised and

rerun nightly, few people gave them
a second thought outside Washington.

Unfortunately, I lived in Washing-
ton and was not yet ten years old, so
I took all of the partisan, press-bred
frenzy much more seriously than Tru-
man or the general public. Daily I
awaited news of his resignation or
impeachment. Daily I was disap-
pointed.

I wonder what that tough little Mis-
souri bantam would make of the cur-
rent crisis in Washington. What would
his reaction be to the same old battle
fought over again with a new elec-
tronic weapon, television, on the side
of the President-stalkers? Now it’s no
secret that Richard Nixon was never
one of Harry Truman's favorite people
but, whatever his personal feelings,
I am sure that the man from Inde-
pendence, keen amateur historian that
he was, would see this case in its true
historical perspective.

Quite probably, he would think back
beyond his own ordeal to that of an-
other beleaguered President, Andrew
Johnson, who was impeached at the
hands of his political and journalistic
foes but not found guilty.

A young writer named John Ken-
nedy described the climate of Andrew
Johnson's Washington in a book called
“Profiles in Courage." The capital city,
Kennedy wrote, had become “the cen-
tral point of the politically dissatisfied
and swarmed with representatives of
every state of the Union, demanding
in practically united voice the depo-

sition of the President.” According to
a newspaper of the day, The Phila-
delphia Press, there was a “fearful
avalanche of telegrams from every
section of the country,” calling for the
ouster of the President. The car not
having been invented yet, anti-Won
forces were deprived of the hm as a.
political weapon.

In the end, despite a torrent of
leaks, allegations and rumors, Andrew
Johnson, though impeached, was not
found guilty. The votes of seven Fe-
publican Senators—honorable adver-
saries who put conscience above party
—tilted the balance. One of them,
Lyman Trumbull, a veteran legislator
from Illinois, had opposed almost all of
Johnson's policies but refused to use
impeachment as a means of deposing
a man who was innocent of any
proven crime or misdemeanor.

“Once set the example of impeach-
ing a President for what, when the
excitement of the House shall have
subsided. will be regarded as insuf-
ficient cause," Trumbull warned, and
“no future President will be safe who
happens to differ with a majority of
the House and two-thirds of the Sen-
ate on any measure deemed by them
important. What then becomes of the
checks and balances of the Constitu-
tion so carefully devised and vital to
its perpetuity?"

Most Americans seem to have
agreed, both then and now. Even after
the shock of the now-famous lost
weekend, a Gallup Poll finds 55 per
cent of the public against impeach-
ment and only 28 per cent for it, a
margin actually slightly stronger
against impeachment than a Harris
Poll taken in September before the
latest cloudburst on the Potomac.

One suspects that, despite any
philosophical differences they might
have with the present occupant of
their old official residence, Messrs.
Kennedy and Truman—not to mention
Andrew Johnson—would be among
that sensible 55 per cent if they were
still with us today. h

56 projects of past six months

By JIM FLEGLE

As the Student Government atalarge
elections approach next week, I feel it
important that the student body be in-
formed of several of the projects which
Student Government has undertaken in the
first six months of this administration.
These efforts, some of which are com—
pleted, and some of which are just
beginning, are indicative of the influence
which the 15 new Senators can have in the
next six months.

ACADEMICS: Barbara Sailer, as
coordinator of Student Advisory Com—
mittees, has initiated and is now forming
SACs within the College of A&S. As Peggy
and l explained in our platform last year,
these SACs are one of our major areas of
emphasis. Barb, with the help of several
SAC members, has begun the very
profitable process of establishing SACs
where previously none have been func-
tional.

Jamie Chase and Peggy Pearson are
aiding SC in establishing a SG Academic
Department. This will fill a void which has
existed in SC for some time. This
Department will not only aid the Senate in
its deliberations on academic matters, but
it will also provide the UK Administration
with student input on these issues.

After initial contacts with COUR-

SELECTOR, a firm from Princeton, NJ,

I have established at least preliminary
agreements for the publication of a course
handbook for pre-registration at UK.
Although this handbook may not be
published until Fall 1974, it is nonetheless a
valuable addition to the information which
UK students will receive during the pre-
registration period. This project has
received approval from the Student Senate
and several administration officials.

I have been working with a speical
committee—headed by Bob Vice. Co-
Director of Public Relations~on a cam-
pus-wide Forum project. Since this is the
first time this idea has been tried at UK
much of the work has been new. The basis
for the project has been established—
through much help from the UK Ad-
ministration—--and we are hopeful that
final arrangements will be forthcoming.

S'l‘l'l)E.‘\'T AFFAIRS: Mike Wilson.
Director of Student Affairs, has just
recently finished coordinating recom-
mendations for changes in the Student
Code. Many of these changes are vital to
the protection of students on this campus
and to the wellbeing of the IVniversity
community. The Student Senate. at its
Monday meeting, gave strong support to
one of the recommendations. the
elimination of Article VI. it is our goal to
continue these recommendations through
the hearings and to the President.

 

In accord with another campaign pledge
last spring, I nominated Linda Powell to
the University Athletics Board. With the
approval of President Singletary. Linda
was appointed to the Board in October. She
is the first woman student to serve on this
Board. Her appointment marks the
beginning of a much brighter future for
women's athletics on this campus.

STl'lHCN'l‘ SERVICES: Nancy Emig——
Director of Student Serviceshas con-
tinued investigations into the Student
Tutoring Service and the Student Book
Exchange. With information from
previous student efforts in these areas.
Student Government has plans to re—
analyze the arrangements and begin
futureefforts.

l have held extensive discussions with
Ben Jones —Director of Finance and the
l'niversity with regard to S(}'s financial
status. l can assure you today that our 150
account is solvent. the discrepancies have
been corrected. and St} is establishing the
safeguards necessary to prevent such
mistakes from occurring in the future

students as possible in the L'niversity
process. in accordance with a pledge I
made last year. David {\lucciwmy ad-
ininistrative assistant—mas been working
to increase the involvement of both

Next semester

Three new classes to be offered
by Women's Studies Program

By CLARE DEWAR
Kernel Staff Writer

A proposal in the fall of 1972
submitted by the Women’s
Studies Committee resulted in
the program which now offers
three classes and next semester
will offer six.

The program “attempts to help
women develop their potential
and provide new knowledge
about women," said Dr. Suzanne

Howard, instructor of one of the
courses.

HOWEVER THE classes are
far from being limited to women.
“If you‘re going to change
women's roles, you’ll have to
change men‘s roles, too,” said
Howard. She said this will best be
done through education in these
types of classes.

“When I go to class, I enjoy
learning‘about women and their
sentiments concerning political
and social issues. But I
sometimes find it hard to par-
ticipate in discussions because
it‘s difficult for me to relate to
some of the course's subject
matter," said Steve Swift, a
journalism junior who has at-
tended half of the classes.

Howard said both students and
faculty would like to involve
more people in women‘s studies,
but added there is a “certain
perspective" involved.

A MAN teaching women’s
studies who believes in the
“anatomy is destiny" argument
«women are genetically weaker
than men), would be like the
person teaching black studies
who considers the black race
inferior. said Howard. A male
teacher in the program would
have to agree with the feminist
viewpoint. she added.

The classes now taught are at
“capacity" level, and Howard
said there has been “positive
reaction" from the faculty

It is possible to get a topical
major in women‘s studies and at
the present—one class( English
363) fulfills a requirement toward
a degree, said Howard. “I‘d like
these courses to fit into the
regular curriculum, she con-
tinued.

ON THE issue of how women
will achieve freedom, Howard
said, ”women are going to
liberate themselves...through
coming to an awareness of
women‘s role in society.”

“You can’t have female
liberation without male
liberat
