election would influence voter participation.
She said that, except for minor difficulties (like the
ballots not arriving on time), the internal operations
of gathering votes is more efficient this year.
There have been enough volunteer poll workers at
least to get the polls opened and closed on time.
Up until that time, she said there had been only
one complaint to the SG office. This concerned the
ballot make-u- p itself. There were questions about whether to mark to the left or to the right of the candidate's
name.
Poll workers were instructed to tell voters to mark
to the right.

Problems Not 'Un solvable'
Apparently any other problems were taken care of
individually at the polls. The poll workers reported no
un solvable problems.
Voters' comments at the polls were often candid.
One votwr explained he had been here four years,
and had voted in each election. He said the only
reason he ever came to the polls was to vote for a

elections."
One voter said there were no controversial issues
in this election, as in "previous elections" in which
she has voted. She said, "This year the campaign has
been more oriented to academic issues."
One voter said he is "just as cynical" voting in a
Student Government election this year as in previous
years.

Campaign 'Bland'
One student thought the campaign tins year was
"much more bland" than last year. He said there were
no issues and no controversial candidates.
Someone said, "It's just as much a joke as ever."
Of course, there was the person wl votes for one
presidential candidate "because I was voting against

another."
One poll worker, voting and working for the first
time in a student election, predicted that there would
be a 30 percent voter turnout.
Poll workers at the library said that the students
seem to be half interested and half apathetic in regard
to the election.
They commented that most voters do not know 16
candidates for representative. They said, "We've had
two or three people out of 450 vote for 16 candidates."

Students who may be completely unknown to you personally make
their campaign pitches as you walk past. This young lady was

Focused
Professors Discuss Witchcraft, Lunar Rocks
By ANGELA

MUELLER

Kernel Staff Writer
Witchcraft is popular because man will
not accept ineaninglessness and seeks some
kind of order, Dr. Donald Nugent declared
at Focus '70 Wednesday night.
Dr. Nugent spoke to a group of about
110 persons, but only 25 or 30 of them stayed
to hear Dr. Clifford Cremers discuss the lunar
rocks he and the UK research team are studying.
Dr. Nugent, a history' professor who
teaches a course in witchcraft, presented what
he culkxl an "intellectual, speculative, hypothetical not sensational or scientific" view
of witchcraft.
He said he w as attempting "no impossible
census of covens (bands of witches)" but
was "deducing its (witchcraft's) potential
from its historical context."
Dr. Nugent called "untenable" the view
effort to
of witchcraft as "a
and manipulate nature. We are exexplain
periencing a revival of witchcraft in a ubiquity
of science," he pointed out.

Witchcraft's Relations
Witchcraft is related to the religious and
cultural milieu, and in this era, our culture is
in transition, Dr. Nugent said.
Dr. Nugent listed four cultural conditions
which he said were necessary to support the
witchcraft revival:
A decline of the institution of organized
religion. "Man is a religious animal and if
churches and synagogues do not fulfill man,
he will seek fulfillment without them."
Old idols (secular religions) have lost their
dynamism. Dr. Nugent said; man is emotional
and needs ritual and ceremony; he is in a
spiritual and psychological vacuum because
such old idols as money and patriotism no
longer have the power to inspire.
Humanistic idealism is suffering "battle
fatigue," Dr. Nugent said; such movements
as
were undermined by a
suspicion that the love philosophy was only
skin keep.
A decline of metaphysics.
"Nothing
makes sense," Dr. Nugent declared. "Exisa
tentialism left an ambivalent legacy

stress on relevance, but a standard against
which fragile institutions cannot measure."
Quotes Warlock

During a question period following his
talk, Dr. Nugent said his primary concern
is black witchcraft, rather than
white witchcraft, because of black witchcraft's "greater" potential for affecting peo-

appointments of John Y. Brown
Jr., Lexington, and David C.
Scott, Milwaukee, Wis., to the
UK Development Council.
The Development Council is
an organization of business and
professional men who aid the
University on matters relating
to the development of private
gifts for the University.
The board also approved a
new program which would grant
a master of science degree in education with a major in higher
education. The proposal was first
made in May 1969 by the College
of Education, and was studied
and approved by the graduate
faculty and the council of the
University Senate.
In other action, the board approved a resolution commending
Dr. Stuart Forth for his leadership as acting vice president for
student affairs.
Names of several men who
will receive honorary doctors of
law degrees were also released.
The recipients are Dr. Frank
Dickey, executive director of the
National Commission on accrediting and a former UK president;
Dr. Ralph Angelucci, Lexington
neurosurgeon; Floyd H. Wright,
Lexington businessman and current member of the UK board;
Dr. William Clement Eaton, UK
professor of history; William T.

Chicago law firm; Gov. Louie
B. Nunn; and Dr. William Clyde

white witchcraft is "for real" and quoted

probably finish them off,'" Dr. Nugent
quoted lain as suing.
After Nugent's talk, Cremers began his
talk about moon-roc- k
samples brought back
on the Apollo 11 and 12 flights.
Dr. Cremers said that of 141 teams studying the moon samples, UK has the only
engineering team all the others are scientists. UK's research, Cremers explained,
