REPRESENTATIVES of the eight state
colleges and universities will attend a
“work session” at noon today to consider
higher education bills now before the state
legislature. It will be held in the Trustees'
meeting room in Patterson Office Tower.

The meeting, requested by UK President
Otis Singletary, was originally intended
for presidents of the institutions. Few
however, will be able to attend.

A telephone survey conducted Thursday
indicated only one president, Dr. Dero
Downing of Western Kentucky, will
definitely attend the meeting. All others
have conflicting obligations but will send
representatives

SINGLI‘ZTARY SAID no official action
will he taken by the representatives,
although bills concerning “internal affairs
of the institutions" will be discussed

Downing said he has no strong opinions
on any of the bills and would wait until the
meeting to comment.

James Bing, Louisville 's representative,
said many bills "can have some
ramifications on the schools."

ON APRIIA, 1973, a sophomore English
major, Mary Oldiges, claimed she com-
pleted part of a history correspondence
course for James “Dinky“ McKay, a
quarterback for the UK football team.

On April 6 McKay admitted he used
“resources" provided him in a paper
written by Oldiges. He said he used her
bibliography only for sources.

On April 17, as a result of an in-
vestiga tion, Athletic Association academic
advisor Col. Ron Allen was temporarily
relieved of his job, pending further in-
vestigation. William Crissey, Allen‘s
assistant, was removed permanently for
his role in the incident.

ALSO ON April 17, in a statement issued
by President Otis Singletary, Crissey said
be arranged with ()ldiges to provide
prepared correspondence work for a
course in which she was not enrolled.

The “McKay incident“ has brought
about two changes which involve the
athletic turtoring program and the in
dependent studies program. The first is a

O LOUISVILLE — Gasoline is drying up
on Kentucky's major highways, where 18
per cent of the dealers are expected to be
out of fuel before Monday morning.

The weekly survey by the Blue Grass
and Louisville automobile clubs also shows
that, during the coming week, motorists
can expect to find 31 per cent of the
stations limiting purchases, 30 per cent
closing before 6 pm. and 66 per cent
closing on Sundays.

OWASHINGTON — President Nixon
asked Congress today to pass new laws to
crack down on narcotics traffickers and
close loopholes that permit drug peddlers
to escape criminal penalties.

In a special message to Congress, the
President said he was “determined to
maintain and increase the pressure on
those who traffic in human misery."

OWASHINGTON — House action on
vetoing President Nixon's pay raise for top
federal officials, including a $10,000~a-year
raise for congressmen, was blocked
Thursday in committee.

Fourteen members kept a veto
resolution against the pay raise bottled up
in the House Post Office (‘ommittee by
preventing a quorum to vote it out for full
House action.

RING SAID HB 435, which calls for a
reciprocity program with other states,
would havemore impact on UL since it has
the highest out-of—state tuition rate of any
state school.

Under H8435, fees for non-residents will
be identical to fees required of Kentucky
students attending institutions in states
participating in the program.

Moore as Assistant to the Athletic Director
for Academic Affairs.

THE COMMITTEE on lndependent
Studies, chaired by Dr. Frank Buck,
reported its findings to Lewis W. Cochran,
Vice President for academic affairsa.

“The committee", Cochran said, “was
formed primarily to deal with the security

in the report indicated that there was
cause for any concern for the independent
study program at the present.” ~

The committee reported “...we find no
evidence to indicate that there is more

students than exist of the campus at

.WASHINGTON — The Nixon ad-
ministration asked (‘ongress on Thursday
for power to keep a close government
watch on wage and price increases for 20
months until the end of 1975.

The administration unveiled legislation
to extend and amend the Economic
Stabilization Act under which it has
controlled wages and prices since the
middle of 1971.

OWASHINGTON — President Nixon
accepted “with deep regret" Thursday the
resignation of Romana Acosta Banuelos as
treasurer of the United States.

The White House said Mrs. Banuelos, of
Los Angeles, cited personal and family
reasons for her departure during her third
year on the job.

0 WASHINGTON —- A Watergate grand
jury indicted Texas lawyer Jake Jacobsen
on Thursday and accused him of lying
under oath about milk—fund money
allegedly earmarked for former Treasury
Secretary John B. Connally.

The indictment said Jacobsen lied to the
federal grand jury when he swore he let

touching it.

athletic director, not c'daches and that the
job requires a PhD with academic ex-

“The paper writing incident of last year
did not involve a tutor, but an individual
student," Moore explained.

“I HAVE a very high regard for the
tutors‘ ability. their good conscience and
their concern for teaching the students
something.“

Tutors must beappointed by the various
departments, upon Moore's request. “I
don‘t know that anything I‘m doing is a
change,“ Moore said. “I can say. however.
that I try to base my activites on the same
principles of integrity that I have always
followed in teaching. I think it is important
for athletes to gain a sense of self—respect
in their own academic work. They
shouldn't accept the stereotype of dumb
athletes that people like to place on them.

Fight isn‘t over

House Hill St a measure requiring landowners
consent for broad—form deed holders to extract
minerals has cleared the House. However. tltis
controversial hill faces considerable obstacles before
final. and after. passage by the Senate.

A significant gain was realized when the House
didn‘t refer tlte hill back to committee. a move which
has killed much legislation this session. (‘redit for the
bill‘s progress goes to the considerable efforts of Rep.
Raymond tfverstreet iH-l.ibertyl. Overstreet‘s three
years of stttdy and promotion of the legislation has
been the major force behind the bill.

Soon. however. HH 9 will be referred to a Senate
committee. reported otit. and voted on by the entire
body ordinarily. the governors approval would be
the final step. htit this is unlikely in the case of this

piece of legislation.

lecause of the natureof the bill. its constitutionality
may become a barrier to application. ()verstreet has
said his bill is constitutional because it applies control
through the state‘s police power. and doesn‘t directly
alter a contract.

For the public good. the state. through its police
power. has the right i ocontrol adverse environmental
conditions. said Dr. George W. Hardy. III dean of the
College of Law. Since the written consent of surface
rights owners will be. required for the mineral owners
to operate. the state would be empowered to protect
the environment. According to Hardy. this is
justifiable and constitutional.

If HB 9 becomes a part of the Kentucky Revised
Statutes. coal companies will most assuredly test the
bill. Cost increases - to the companies and the con—
sumer — dictate this. Some legislators had this in
mind when voting against the bill.

Can the environmental impact of H8 9 be reconciled
with its economic impact? For too long. economic
interests have held the upper hand in the stripped
mountains of Appalachia. Now the land can be
restored to its original owners. and still supply the
country‘s coal needs.

If this bill is enacted. companies must be more
conscious of mining effects on the mountain en-
vironment. and must. therefore, adjust.

High time to bind the nation‘s wounds

By JEAN GATCH

THE NEW YORK TIMES NEWS seawce

RAPID CITY. S. i).—i)uring the
months that have ptls'st‘d since the
first hint that "peace is at hand."
i have been haunted by two phrases
from Lincoln‘s Secoitzl inaugural Ad-
virt ss: ”to bind up the nation‘s wounds"
and “to tare for tum who shall have
borne tl‘: battle " these are among the
tcw humane and hopeful sentiments
that (an tome out of war.

Ne\er in our history hat c we needed
humanity and hope more titan we need
them now in the wake of the Vietnam
disaster. it is time for amnesty for
us all

Let us declare amnesty for all those
political leaders who, misguided or
not. led us to, and kept its in. Victnam.
Some were stupid. some heroic and
some simple glory monget‘s, But until
we discoyer :t wisdom machine to sort
them into neat categories. we must
rely on the only truth we do ttayi:
They are all Americans and all human.

Wit-rut r we are g‘rtlfitY, we must start

from that point.

And what if we did have such a
machine? If they could be sorted out.
what is the proper punishment for
stupidity. or for glory-mongering?
Death? luxilc'.’ Dishonor?

So it‘s time for amnesty for politi-
cians. and for all of us who voted
them in. failed to remove them. ne-
glected to search out the facts. and
simply turned the television knob to
another channel. And for those of us
who did protest and march and shout,
but not always wisely or decently.
And for those of us who maligned our
(ongrcssman for not risking the dan-
gerous step of \otiitg to stop money
for the war but who continued to pay
our IH‘it‘s rather titan risk the con-
stquences of refusing. And for those
of us who endured in stlcnce the sus-
picion that the war wt-nt on partly be-
cause of the huge profits it meant to
stitiii- hiit who never refused the wage
hike or the dividends that profit made
possible

it is time to relax our attacks on
individual military men who served on

the orders of an Establishment that
was built as we directed and that
acted in the only way it could in light
of the resources of spirit and intellect
we provided for it to use.

it is certainly time for amnesty, in
advance, for any odd. unkind, strange
or excessive action or statement made
by any War prisoner. his wife, any dis-
figured vetcran or disillusioned Green
Beret.

And it is certainly time to give total,
no—holds-barrcd amnesty to all those
who are in jail, in hiding. or in exile
because they would not fight the war.

Surely there were men who went
because thev were cowards. as well
as cowards who refused to go. There
were gioryumongcrs among the hawks,
as well as among the doves. And there
were surely heroes in both camps.

We will now spend huge amounts
of money and energy to demonstrate
our forgiveness of the enemy. The
President has already wined and dined
thosc who supplied the enemy‘s arma-
ments, and these things seem eminent-
ly wise and useful things to do.

tut surely we cannot accept the
enemy more easily than we accept our
sons and neighbors who differed with
us on Vietnam.

But amnesty does not mean forget-
fufness’. Please God, we must remem—
her it all—remember it and study it
and learn front it.

But real learning and genuine prog-
ress will not happen until we put our
hatreds and fears and animosities suf-
ficiently to rest to be able to think
clearly and creatively. The tasks ahead
require the best efforts of all of us.
If the mad genius of the American
system works at all, it works best
when every shade of opinion is heard.

There is guilt enough for us all.
There must also be amnesty for us
all. And the process of binding up the
nation‘s wounds may just teach us how
to build at least a trial model of a
wisdom machine.

An ombud

By JAMES 0. FREEDMAN
THE NEW YORK TIMES NEWS SERVICE

PHILADELPHIA — When President
Martin Meyerson asked me last spring
to serve a two year term as the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania' 5 ombudsman,
I quickly accepted. The opportunity
was an unusual one for a professor
of administrative law.

Administrative law, in a small nut—
shell, describes the rules that govern
the decision-making processes of gov-
ernmental officials and bureaucracies.
The rules reflect the principles of
procedural due process and fundamen-
tal fairness prescribed by the Consti—
tution, as well as the needs of effec—
tive administration and the dictates of
good sense

Having spent nine years at the uni-
versity thinking and writing about
problems of the fair administration of
governmental agencies, I could hardly
turn down an opportunity to play a
part in insuring the fairness of the
procedures by which the university
reached its decisions and administered
its policies.

It seemed to me, as something of
a hypothesis, that the informal
methods of an ombudsman held greater
promise as a means of protecting
individuals in a university community
from arbitrary administrative action
than more formal methods did. The
fact that formal methods of protecting
individual rights (the most prominent
being adversary hearings, with the
right of confrontation and cross—ex-
amination) have traditionally been less
well developed in universities than in
other social institutions, such as gov-
ernmental agencies and courts, meant
that there would be greater occasion
for testing the hypothesis against a
wide variety of situations.

Within the course of a twcrweek
period near the start of the school
year. I met With students who com-
plained, variously, that the faculty
evaluations placed in their files were
unfair and prejudiced, that their de-
partment had either neglected to send
out le'ttcrs of rccommendation to
graduate schools or had donc so too
late for them to arrive on time and
that they had been denied their right
ful priority on a room assignment list
because of their sex.

During the same period. I met with
a faculty member concerned over the
allegedly casual manner in which his
department had reached a decision to
deny him tenure. Another faculty
member was upset that a chairman
would not permit him to teach courses
in which he claimed specific expertise

lalso met with technicians who said
that the work areas to which they
were assigned were unsafe and un-
sanitary, and with secretaries com-
plaining that they were required to
take their bosses' dirty linen to the
cleaners that faculty members in their
department invariably spoke to them

opinior from inside and outside the university comn unity

sman reviews his daily duties

rudely and peremptorily, and that
decisions to terminate their employ-
ment were based on nothing but gossip.

The experience of one semester
obviously is not an adequate basis
from which to draw conclusions about
the uses and limits of an ombudsman's
informal procedures. But I have begun
to form some tentative judgments.

Some of the complaints that come
to our office are the result of nothing
more venal than administrative inad-
vertence or oversight, and a telephone
call or a short personal discussion
usually brings corrective action.

Other complaints prove upon in—
vestigation to be the result of an
administrative failure to follow a
governing rule or general practice,
and the persons responsible generally
have been quite ready to make effec-
tive amends if our office can demon-
strate that the university did not, in
Justice Holmes‘s famous phrase, “turn
square corners" in dealing with the
individual involved.

The informality of an ombudsman’s
methods—the absence of publicity the
protection of individual identities, the
use of a conciliatory rather than an
adversary approach—seems to me to
hold greater promise of achieving a
fair and just result in cases such as
these than more formal methods do.

There are other cases, too, in which
I believe that an ombudsman can play
a useful role by virtue of the infor-

mality of his approach. Typical are
those in which an investigation dis-
covers nothing in the way of malad-
ministration and yet the complainant
remains persuaded that he has been
grievous‘iy wronged.

When a student has worked con-
scientiously on a paper for several
weeks or months, for example, and
then receives a grade of C, be may feel
that the instructor has seriously mis-
judged the quality of his work. This
is a matter quite beyond my own com-
petence, and one that is properly com-
mitted to the discretion of individual
instructors. In such cases I usually
meet with the instructor and student
together and ask them to explain their
attitudes and reasons to each other.
These discussions have been fascinat-
ing and instructive, but they have yet
to result in the change of a grade.

What they have done, I hope, is to
demonstrate to the students involved
that the office of the ombudsman is
one place in an often anonymous uni-
versity hierarchy that will listen to
them with seriousness and will try to
insure that their instructors will, too,
even if they do not achieve the specific
result they originally sought.

Much of an ombudsman’s work
brings him into poignant contact with
those who seek help in meeting grave
personal problems for which there are
no ready solutions: faculty members
who have been denied tenure and can-

not find ncw positions elsewhere; stu-
dents with fine academic records who
succumbed to the impulse to cheat
under the focused pressures of a
moment and now must find explana-
tions for parents, friends, and gradu-
ate schools; secretaries who served a
now-retired professor for the better
part of a lifetime and now cannot find
new employment because they are
considered too old.

The sense of hurt that one sees
in such cases is extraordinarily great.
These are people essentially pleading
for an affirmation of their worth as
human beings. The emotional demands
that they understandably make upon
their listener are intense and moving.

I suspect that the poverty of the
responses that an ombudsman can
make often merely confirms the
intractability of their dilemmas. These
are the cases that give me my sleep-
less nights.

On a number of occasions my
predecessor as ombudsman wrote of
his intention to leave ample supplies
of Bufferin and bourbon for his suc-
cessor. Friends sometimes ask me
whether I have had occasion to make

use of his generosity. I tell them
have not. My preferences are Valiu
and vodka. 3

 

James 0. Freedman has been
ombudsman since July 1.

Never felt strongly enough

I must admit I‘ve never felt
strongly enough about an article
to step out and say something.
This time, however, I do.

In reference to the article,
“Beware: The Journalists are
out to get youi”, I'd like to ex-
press something that concerns
me. I wish I understood why
people voice their feelings so
harshly. If we have an opinion,
why can‘t we say it kindly,
honestly, and support it'.’ I guess
my point here concerns
stereotyping too. I‘m well aware
that we all generalize on many
subjects not just about “long
haired hippy penert freaks" or

“innocent freshmen“, so why say
anything about the grossities of
stereotyping.

The thing that jumped out of
the article at me, however, was
“I really doubt our fine Jour-
nalism majors have been to
church recently ..... If you asked
them who Jesus is they‘d
probably say, ‘I don‘t know,
which rock band is he in‘?‘ " At
first. it hurt me. Who knows who
goes to church? Anyway, “Going
to church doesn't make you a
Christian anymore than going to
a garage makes you a car."

Even a churchgoer may not
really know Jesus. I then caught

myself, I'm ashamed to say,
reacting as I'm sure many did.
with the thought. “Churchgoers
are square. superconservative.
freak-haters." It upset me to
think that someone who didn‘t
know Jesus certainly wouldn't
care to meet him now if he
symbolized that. Well. I don't
believe he does.

Jesus was. himself. considered
the radical of his day; bringing
new reforming ideas into the
world; previously unknown Yet
he associated with every type:
straight, freak. rich and poor:
loving them all for who they were
and not how they looked or acted.

He also respected the govern-
ment in authority over him
despite its corruption voicing
opinions and ideas warmly and
considerately. “Let your speech
be always with grace, seasoned

with salt...“ Col. 4:6. I guess I‘ve
been stamped into the “con-
servative Christian“ stereotype

Accounting setup
determines policy

By JIM MAZZONI
Kernel Staff Writer

University bookstore is dif-
ferent from Wallace’s and
Kennedy‘s not only because it is
run by UK but it doesn’t offer
charge accounts to students.

“We're not set up from the
accounting aspect for that," said
Jim Ruschell, assistant vice
president for business affairs.

Both Wallace's and Kennedy‘s
offer 30-day charge accounts to
students. University bookstore
extends a 30day charge account
only to University departments,
faculty. staff and graduate
students.

SINCE I964. when the
University took control of the
bookstore and made it an
auxiliary to the housing and
dining system. there hasn't been
any need or desire to open up
student charge accounts,
Ruschell said. Before then the
bookstore was privately run by
Joe Morris from McVey Hall‘s
basement.

William Eblen, University
bookstore manager. said he
doesn't know of any problems or
complaints concerning student
charge accounts.

Wallace's bookstore requires
students to first fill out an ap-
plication before receiving credit.

“IF A PERSON has local credit
he can usually charge something
here on that same day," said
Mike Land, Wallace‘s assistant
manger. “Otherwise it probably
takes from one to four or five
days."

Land said he feels giving credit
to students has to increase the
volume of his business. “It’s
surprising the amount of students
who have Bankamericard and
Mastercharge," he said.

BUT lSSl’INU. credit has its
drawbacks. too.

Land admitted Wallace‘s oc-
casionally has problems with late
payments on some student
charge accounts. “After we send
them (those who don‘t pay their
accounts), so many letters then
we turn it over to our company
lawyer and have him send a
letter." Land explained.

He added a little pressure
usually straightens everything
out.

KENNEDYS bookstore offers
credit to any students who
present valid ll) cards, said Don
Evans, Kennedy‘s assistant
manager.

Grapes the target

UFW reorganizes chapter

United Farm Workers (UFW),
led by Cesar Chavez is in the
process of reorganizing a local
chapter in Lexington.

UFW previously organized in
Lexington for the 1972 lettuce
boycott, but until recently, has
been inactive.

SINCE January, the 15 mem-
ber committee headed by Dick
Burr, Nancy Collins and Tom
Parsons. has been working with
the national organization in
trying to renew contracts be—
tween grape growers and owners
with the UFW in California.

The grape industry is presently
under contract with the Team—
sters Union. The UFW is engaged
in a legal dispute to end the

Teamster contract and renew the
contract with the UFW.

A nationwide strike has been
called against Gallo wine in an
attempt to force contract renew—
als. “If the Gallo wine boycott is
successful. the rest will probably
fall in line." said Burr.

THE LEXINGTON UFW chap-
ter is attempting to gather
support by speaking to church
groups, unions and other groups,
and by passing out leaflets.

“The Teamsters aren’t repre-
senting the farm workers proper-
ly,” said Burr. “The present
contract was raided from the
UFW.“

The local UFW chapter is also

receiving limited support from
one of the campus organizations,
the Young Socialists Allia
