Assistant Managing Editor
Two UK football players have been charged with assault and
battery in connection with the Feb. 27 beating of Massoud Foulad-ga- r,
a foreign student from Iran.
Pat Eckenrod and Lee Allen Clymber were arrested by campus
police around 1:30 a.m. Feb. 28 on a warrant for disorderly conduct
swom out by Fouladgar.
The two were released to a representative from the Dean of
Students Office the same night.
The disorderly conduct charge was amended to assault and
battery last Thursday. Fouladgar had been hospitalized for five
days.
Severely Beaten
According to Fouladgar he was on his way to a dance in the
Complex Commons with his girlfriend and some former classmates
from Eastern Kentucky University when a car occupied by Eckenrod
and Clymber narrowly missed hitting the group.
In response to shouts of "watch out" from Fouladgar and his
companions, who were walking from the Complex parking lot, the
car stopped and the players approached the group, Fouladgar
said.
After an exchange of words between the two groups, Fouladgar
charged, he was "severely beaten" by Eckenrod and Clymber, who
he said, then returned to their car and drove off.
When the Kernel talked to Eckenrod Sunday night he confirmed
Foukdgar's description of the events leading to the altercation,

but denied taking an active part.
Campus police, who arrived on the scene shortly after the alleged
beating, took Fouladgar to the Medical Center.

Amended Charges
Released by Medical Center doctors temporarily, Fouladgar and
his friends went tp the Lexington Police Station and took out a
warrant for the arrest of Clymber and Eckenrod.
The' two teammates were identified from a coat which Clymber
reportedly left at the scene of the beating and the license number

of the car.
Fouladgar later returned to the hospital, where he remained
until last Thursday.
The original charge of disorderly conduct reportedly was made
because the lateness of the hour prevented the obtaining of an
assault and battery chiuge.
Fouladgar's friends identified the two football players, after they
were arrested, as the persons involved in the incident.
Court Action
Eckenrod and Clymber appeared in court last Monday, but the
case was continued until March 16, during spring break.
Head football coach John Ray said Friday that he had taken
"tentative disciplinary action" against the two team members.
Ray said he knew only that the two had been "involved in a
parking lot incident," and that asfarashe knew "nothing has been
substantiated yet.
"I believe in discipline," said Ray, "but I don't prejudge anyone
until I have all the facts."
The coach indicated that his policy is to leave the investigation
to the Dean of Students Office, but added that some action will be
taken when the case is settled.

Editorials represent the opinions of the Editors, not of the University.

Peace

Marches for popular causes are
having less and less effect these
days but for reasons which few
have investigated. It is one thing
for a group of people to unite in
the peaceful protest of existing inequities. To turn such a gathering
into an arena for revolutionary inflammation, is another matter entirely.
When persons assemble publicly
to protest a cause about which they
feel strongly, they, are apt to be
persuaded to pursue less peaceful
actions by a speaker whose rhetoric
overcomes common sense. A look at
recent developments in Santa Barbara and less recent activities of

Nazi Cermany, where a madman
successfully enraged his countrymen against a minority, bears out
the point.
A march for peace, for instance,
does little good when accompanied
by the hapless harangues of
d,

revolutionary-minde-

d

militants. Not only is the expressed
purpose of such a protest juxtaposed
by the militant spokesman, the possible influence it might have on the
establishment is all but negated.
There are far too many legitimate spokesmen for peace to allow
leadership to fall into the hands
of some uncouth rabble-rouserAny peace worth attaining is worth
attaining peacefully.

If you looked carefully through papers
of the past few days you may have noticed a small article which reveals that
according to the Republican National
Committee Vice President Spiro Agnew
has an IQ of 135. This IQ, which the
Committee faithfully reports to be near
the genius level, is just one of a series
of facts contained in the new paperback,
Know Your Republicans, published this
week by Cretin House Publishers of Athol,
Mass.

This volume should rapidly become
an indispensable work for viewers of the
American political scene, taking its place
alongside Barry Coldwater's Conscience
of a Conservative and Harold Stassen's
classic Where I Stand. Sources at Cretin
House reveal that the initial printing

of 350 sold out in the first three weeks
at assorted outlets in Maine, Vermont,
Arizona, Florida, Alaska, and Utah.
While the material on Agnew is the
most widely known, the book contains
a veritable wealth of indispensable information about prominent Republican
figures. Some examples follow:
"Tricia Nixon: Cute and vivacious,
Tricia is the daughter of President Richard
Nixon. Her favorite sayings are 'Cool and
dreamy, man,' and That's real cool,
She thinks the Whitehouse is
daddy-o- !'
'really tough,' and that her father is 'after
t,
all, the
you know.' "
"Ronald Reagan: A former star of
stage, screen, and television, handsome

to the Republican image. His IQ is 135,
which is near the genius level."
"Theodore Roosevelt: Although deceased, Teddy's drive and energy nuke
him one of the most vital and alive Republicans of the 70's, and he is therefore greatly used by Party strategy
cross-sectio-

bull-goos-

makers."

"David Eisenhower A great leader
of Young America, Dave is married to
Tricia Nixon's sister. Of his reputation
something of a 'flaming youth' during
his recent student days, David says, 'Aw,

shucks, it weren't nothin.' His favorite
sports are archery, fishing, squash, and
gourds. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Dave felt no qualms about the
draft, since he joined the Navy."
"Smelba Tompkins: Cook and maid at
the Presidential retreat at Key Biscayne,
Florida, Smelba is noted for her delicious renderings of such 'yum foods' as
Sweet and Sour Pumpkin and Cheese au
Cratin, which is a special favorite of
Vice President Agnew: ('It's real good.
If you like au gratins.')"
"Checkers: Now deceased, this faithful cocker spaniel was once a trusted
Presidential advisor and confidant. His
spirit still lives on and acts as a guiding
light to Party strategists. He had, until
his untimely death, an IQ of 135, which
is near the genius level."

an increasingly popular tactic in
the campus offense against
ROTC.

are moving to physically destroy
the
military machine
as evidenced in recent days at
Washington University of Saint
Louis, the University of Illinois,
the University of Oregon, and
the State University of New York
at Buffalo where the first physical offense against ROTC took
place last fall.
At Washington University, investigations continue in the case
of the burning of the Army ROTC

convinced the fire was deliberately set. Students cheered as the
building burned.
Campus police director Norman Schneider said that no suspects have been detained. The

Chancellor Thomas II. Eliot
issued the following statement
yesterday afternoon: "There is

will continue uninterrupted, despite the obvious physical inconvenience caused by this destructive crime."
Colonel James Kudran, head
of the Army program, said that
there was no question about
ROTC continuing on campus.
He added that "if anything, I
would think this will make the
University authorities more determined to keep the program."
