keeps trekkin ’

By KAREN WILLIAMS
Kernel Reporter

Paramount Pictures has made the
final decision to produce a multi-
million dollar. feature length Star
Trek movie, creator-producer Gene
Roddenben‘y told an enthusiastic
crowd Saturday night in Louisville’s
Freedom Hall.

About live thousand fans of all
ages applauded when Roddenberry
added. “If the picture is a success,
then all three major networks are
interested in bringing ‘Star Trek‘
back as a prime-time series."

Roddenberry said that the movie
would not be just an elongated ‘Star
Trek’ episode, but a motion picture
which would appeal to a broad
audience. “I can promise you that it
will not be ‘Captain Kirk meets
Godzilla,‘ he said

“Star Trek" is the science fiction
series which was broadcast from
1966 to 1969 on NBC. In the last seven
years, the 79 original episodes have
been rerun on 142 U .8 stations and
in 54 foreign countries.

The series has attracted a cult
following over the years. Rod-
denberry called the fans a peculiar
but lovely life form. and he added,
“NBC thinks they are a dangerous
life form." Over a million letters
forced NBC to renew “Star Trek"
for a third season in 19811

Roddenberry. the creator and
executive producer of “Star Trek."
is a veteran of the secmid world war
and a former police officer and
airline pilot. liis TV credits include
“Have Gun, Will Travel." “Naked
City,“ and “Dr. Kildare."

lie is married to Majel Barrett,
the series‘ Nurse Chapel. Rod-
denberry gives three to four lectures
on “Star Trek" each month.

University Press makes

little money, lots of books

By LEONARD KELSAY
Kernel Staff Writer

There‘s a big difference in content
between books entitled "The Life
and Writings of an Early Abbasid
Poet“ and "The County (‘ourts of
Antebellum Kentucky."

But they do have one thing in
common» each was published by the
University Press of Kentucky in
Latferty Hall.

“Our purpose is to serve as a
repository of scholarly knowledge.“
said Willis Popenoe, marketing
manager of University Press.

“We're a very small. modest
press,“ he said. “It is not to make
money. We run with a skeleton crew,
but we‘re very cohesive. Only about
25 of us work in our four areas—
editorial, production, ad-
ministration. and sales and
marketing. Nevertheless, we have
published more than 250 books since
we were organized in 1969." he
stated.

So far, none of those books have
been best sellers. Pepenoe said.
“Our press run is one to two
thousand. We can’t make a profit at
figures like that. so we are depen-
dent on the state and foundations for
money to publish. “That means if an
author comes to us with a
manuscript we feel is worthy of
publication, then we have to get
financial support amounting to at
least $1.000."

an independent student new

Vol. LXVIII, Number 33
Tuesday, September 28, 1976

Although the press publishes
works "of a certain archival in-
terest"——like the papers of Louie
Nunn—it concentrates on work with
broad appeal to Kentuckians.
Popenoe said. “Kentuckians love
books about Kentucky." he said.
"We will sell more of them than
anything else."

The University Press of Kentucky
tries to balance scholarly books with
those with more popular appeal.
"The Kentucky Bicentennial
Bookshelf is a good example of
this." Popenoe said. "The price on
these has been brought down to a
reasonable level ($3.95) by grants
from the National Endowment for
the Humanities and the Kentucky
Federation of Women‘s Clubs. They
have been quite popular. and we
have increased our printings of them
from 2,000 to 3,000 or even 5,000. We
expect our work on quilt-making in
this series to sell well."

The Bicentennial Bookshelf will
publish at least 50 volumes on all
phases of Kentucky life, Popenoe
said. Titles range from "John
Sherman Cooper“ to “The Kentucky
Harness Horse."

“Inspired by the success of these
books. we will publish our first art
book—on Paul Sawyier—Kentucky‘s
greatest impressionisti~soon,“ he
said. “Sawyier is so popular we
expect it to sell well—even at nearly
$30."

Mining engineering professor ‘digs’ his students

By BYRON BREWER
Kernel Reporter

Although Ted Iialey. professor of
mining engineering. enjoys his good
relationship with his students. there
are still some problems.

“Maybe I get a little too close to
them.“ said Haley, peering through
the thick clouds of cigar smoke
which surrounded him. "When i'm
not at one of my offices. I leave a
sign to tell the student that I‘m at the
other office. Often when I go out of
town, I‘ll leave a number or

The basic kinds of problems they
bring are usually either academic.

We had a few that made around

According to Haley. there is a
terrible shortage of mining
engineers. "If I had four times as
many students as I have now. they
could all probably be placed in
jobs,“ he said.

Ilaley was to be a member of a
panel involved with the Scotia
hearmgs. because he is an expert in
blasting, but this never came about.

According to Haley. there were
“objections from a well~known
newspaper that there were too many
Kentuckians on the panel. Since I
was the last Kentuckian on it, I was
the first to be taken off."

October of 1966 as an instructor.

Acccrding to Haley, he is part of
UK‘s special title series whereby a
teacher is hired on the basis of his
experience. Instead of the usual

research. it is Haley's job to
“cmsult students and maintain
contact with the industry. That is
most important,“ he said.

The consulting Haley does is
usually of a job placement type, but
there are occasionally discussions
with the student on such things as

finandal aid possibilities and the
particular requirements of one

another.

LTI moves into new $6 million home

By .II‘INAY TATE
Kernel Reporter

The Lexington Technical Institute
(LTI) has a new building. To those
who work there. it is LTI‘s first real
home.

“Now there is an LTI.“ said David
Wilkins. associate director of the
school. referring to the new facility
on (‘ooper Drive. Before this year.
its offices were located in Breckin-
ridge llall. but classes were held in
l'niversity buildings.

recalled Dr. M. Stanley Wall, vice
president of the Community College
system.

“And I have to say. the contrac-
tors have been very cooperative."
he said. Wall was referring to the
contractors‘ working pattern, which
allows the building to be used before
it is completed.

The building's exterior was finish-
ed before school began. but interior
work is still in progress.

According to Wilkin’s. “remark-
able progress" has been made on the
interior in the past two weeks. with

“The total project cost, including

permanent home.

Despite this foray into books of a
more popular nature, the Press does
not make money. “0f the 250 books
on our badtlist—I don't have the
figures on this——roughly 10 per cent
have broken even. Even fewer than
that have shown a profit. We have
made more and more money as time
goes on, but we are still dependent
on the state for funds." Popenoe
said.

He leaned back in his chair and
stroked his beard. “We rarely ex-
pect to make money; we publish
most books purely for the wisdom
they embody. We are always looking
for ways to publish more works.
Many titles we hoped to have on our
bookshelves have died because we
could not find an author.“

Could a non-scholar have a
scholarly book published?

“There is no policy on that,"
Popenoe said. “If the scholars who
read the manuscripts think the
auth0r has made a serious con-
tribution, and if the work fits into our
general line of publishing (Southern
history and literature). and if the
money is available, we would have
no qualms. Of course. the vast
majority of our books are written by
I’h.D.s."

Do any of the University Press'
works receive mention in national
book reviews?

Humans are

study subject

By MARY ANN HUCIIART
Kernel Reporter

One little-known aspect of the
University’s liberal arts program is
the department of human relations.
Although related in scope to the
disciplines of sociology and
psychology, human relations is
concerned with slightly different
matters.

The department of human
relations is concerned with family
unity, personal relationships,
human health, abortion, crises in the
family, development of children,
lifestyles, human sexuality, aging,
and human needs for principle.

“Our department hopes to
strengthen human beings and give
more value to their relationships,"
said Dr. John Crosby, the newly-
appa‘nted department chairman.

Several new classes are on the
drawing board and may be in
operation within the next couple of
years, according to Crosby. 0n the
graduate level, new courses may
include topics in developmental
problems, middle years, and
marriage counseling. There is only
me new course being discussed for
the undergraduate program—
human sexuality.

Although this department is
sociobgicaliy and psychologically
oriented, its perspective differs
Iran that of those two departments.

“The department of human
relations is more functional,” said
Cmdiy. “By function], I mean
usable. Hopefully, they (students)
will be able to make practical ap-
plications of these clones." Crosby

Hiring Ivy symbolizes step

toward solid framework

The Athletic Department has taken a
progressive step hiring a business manager to
coordinate its $3.58 million budget.

Larry Ivy, for seven years UK housing
director, now holds the position of assistant
athletic director for finance. Ivy has con-
siderable budget experience as a result of his
housing position.

()ther athletic officials are recognized
primarily t'Or an athletic background and for
fund-raising and promotion abilities. Thus Ivy’s
appointment, which centralizes athletic finan-
cial matters under one area, establishes a solid
organizational framework.

When Hagan hired lvy, he freed himself from
the grind of daily budgetary procedures. Under
the new organization, Hagan will not be hindered
in carrying out his true role as the athletic ad-
ministrator.

The need for improved athletic department
organization was evidenced when WAVE-TV in
Louisville dropped its basketball contract with
the University. As a result, the Athletic
Association will be paid approximately one third
of the base rate for television rights that it
received last season.

WAVE edged out of the contract because it
provided for exclusive television. rights which
WAVE actually didn’t have. The University had
a standing contract that also allowed Notre
Dame broadcast rights for its annual game with
UK.

Athletic Director Cliff Hagan admittedthat the
conflicting contracts were the result of an
oversight. We hope those kind of errors can be
eliminated by improved organization.

RCC project is lesson for those

who find it easy to ignore problems

No thanks to the Urban County Council, the
Lexington Rape Crisis Center (RCC) raised the
needed funds to qualify for a $23,000 federal
gra nt. But laurels are due the concerned persons
of the community who helped raise the money.

The Rt‘C garnered $1,965 through con-
tributjons which qualified it for the grant from
the federal Law Enforcement Assistance Ad-
ministration through the Kentucky Crime
Commission. Although the RCC needed only
$1,402 to apply for the grant, some concern was
voiced when the council did not make an effort to
help the center.

Since the grant will not come through until
early 1977, the extra $500 that was raised is sure
to help its tight budget in the interim.

Like the move which stopped construction of
the Red River Dam, this concerted effort to raise
funds for the RCC is proof that apathy isn’t as
widespread as some might think.

The anti-Red River Dam movement was the
product of a well-organized group, which worked
several years to reach its goal.

But, on the other end of the spectrum are
projects such as the RCC. Within a month and
onehalf, concerned students and community
residents accomplished a difficult task— raising
money for a service that obviously doesn’t affect
the majority of the community.

This accomplishment could be a lesson to those
who find it easier to ignore a problem, instead of
working for attainable goals.

they were reacting against peer
pressure

They were reacting against con-

formity, acquiescence and the status
quo; they challenged the complace—
ncy of fellow students. To put this in
terms Lt. Roten can understand,
radical students were on the point
revealing the repressive nature of
American society. They were at-
tempting to move beyond the steril-
ity of the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi.

Students of the New Left tried to
stop Marines from recruiting on
campus because Marines were kill~
ing, maiming. burning, and bombing
the Vietnamese people. This is not

 

peer pressure, but the strength and
conviction to stand against the most
murderous war machine ever creat-
ed in the history of humankind. The
real pressure was not from ones
peers, but from a mighty military
industrial complex bent on destruc-
tion of a tiny country in Southeast
Asia.

Lt. Roten said students were
"afraid“ to approach Marine Corps
recruiters during the war. i would
think any good potential Marine
would push right through that mob
of unruly radicals blocking the
recruiting tables. shove in there with
macho and step on their puny
bodies, push in a few faces, waste
them. Would a “few good men" be

intimidated by peer pressure from a
bunch of maggots and faggots giving
aid and comfort to the enemy?

if he wants to find some peer
pressure, the recruiter need not look
to the student radicals of the past, he
can find it now in his own backyard.
If any organization understands the
nature of peer pressure, it is the
Marine Corps. Take the case of
Private Lynn McClure who was
beaten to death last year while in
boot camp at the Marine Corps
Recruit Depot in San Diego.

All five recruits followed orders

Publicity for arts

Last Thursday we attended the
opening concert of the UK Symph-

ony Orchestra under the direction of
Phillip Miller.Since we are all new
to the University, none of us knew
what a pleasant evening of music
would be awaiting us. Our one
disappointment (and it must have
been shared by the musicians, too)
was that so few people had come to
Memorial Hall to join the fun.

We hope that the culprit was lack
of publicity rather than apathy! In
the future, might the Kernel not give
more prominent and complete
coverage to the wealth of cultural
activities that UK has to offer? We
hope so!

in first l00 days of new term

MIAMI [AP] — President
Ford said yesterday that a
crusade against crime, in-
cluding a drive to jail career
criminals and “violent and
street-wise” youthful offend-
ers, would key-note the first
100 days of a new term if he
wins the election.

Ford said the voters should
and will check their ballots on
Nov. 2 “and identify those
candidates who have demon-
strated indifference or per-
missiveness toward crime..."

Ford’s appearance here

closed out his three-day cam-
paign swing through Demo
cratic presidential candidate
Jimmy Carter‘s home terrio
tory, the Deep South, and he
own crime-fighting
proposals.

In a stern law-and-order
speech to more than 2,000
policemen, Ford accused
Congress of inaction on his
own crime-fighting proposals

Ford's speech to the Inter-
national Association of Chiefs
of Police was in tune with the
conservative line he has es-

poused during the three days
of campaigning in Southern
states.

The President skipped one
issue he had pressed in four
Sunday appearances along
the Mississippi Gulf Coast,
where he repeatedly declared
his opposition to federal gun
registration. He said all law-
abiding citizens should have
the right to keep firearms for
their own protection and

should not be required to
register guns if they want to
go hunting.

Carter promises no tax raises

PORTLAND. Ore. [AP] —
Jimmy Carter said yesterday
that President Ford's eco-
nomic'policies placed a re—
cord 2.5 million Americans
below the official poverty line
last year and have created a
new class of poor to whom the
American dream has been
denied.

Campaigning by boat in
Portland‘s deepwater harbor
and with speeches, rallies and
impromptu news conferen-
ces, the Democratic candi-
date pledged that if elected

president, he would never
increase taxes on Americans
who work for a living, or
whose major source of in-
come comes from wages and
salaries rather than interest,
dividends and capital gains.

It was an assertion that
Carter has made repeatedly
in efforts to clarify state-
ments he made concerning
taxes in an Associated Press
interview more than a week
ago.

In that interview he indi-
cated he would seek to raise

taxes for everyone above the
mean or median income. But
when reminded that the ine-
dian was somewhere around
$12,000, he said he could not
fix a level at which an in-
crease would be sought.
which an increase would be
sought.

loopholes benefit not workers
in the middle class but those

Star Trek to explore new frontiers—in cinema

“Star Trek" has been the
fools of attention in recent
weeks because President
Ford ordered the new US.
space sluttle to be named
“Enterprise," which is the
name of the starship in the TV
series. Roddenberry said that
when die space shuttle was
unveiled in Los Angeles last
week, most of the “Star
Trek" cast was present.

Roddenberry discussed the
appeal the series has for
people of all ages. “My at-
titude is that ‘Star Trek' is not
great literature." he said. A

commercial television
program must attract an
audience of at least 18 million
people every week to survive.
He added, “It must woo the
audience away from shows
like ‘Gomer Pyle‘ and ‘The
Beverly Hillbillies.‘
“However," he continued,
“surveys show that this world
is hungry for images to ad-
mire and emulate. ‘Star Trek'
presentedtrue heroes, almost
old-fashioned, who showed
that there are things in life

worth living a life of
discanfort for, or even worth
dying for.“ In Rod-

“Herb Greene, and ar-
chitecture professor here for
a bng time, has written a
book called ”Mind and
Image." In it, he tells about
his personal philosophy of
architecture as well as telling
about his works. We think it‘s
the first time any architect
has explained the motivation
and spirit behind his works so
well,“ Popenoe said.

denberry’s view, humanity is
still child-like. “When
humanity reaches maturity,
we will find a positive value in
diversity.“ An adult
reasoning society, he said,
“will find its capacity to love
equal to its power to
destroy."
