time a pep rally with the UK
cheerleaders and the UK Marching Band is being planned.
Following the picnic, a jam
session, open to all UK students,
will be held on the Student Center patio, free of charge.
On Monday and Tuesday the
activities will continue with
free films available in the Student Center Theater. Among
those scheduled are "An Evening With W. C. Fields,"

are to be shown continuously
throughout the two days.
An art exhibit and information booths will also be available in the Student Center.
Members of Mortar Board,
senior women's honorary, will
aid in the manning of the information booths.

The activities will be climaxed
with a jam session on the Student Center patio on Monday
night followed by another jam
session sponsored by Triangle
Fraternity on Tuesday night.
The Tuesday night jam will be
held in the Rose Street parking
structure.
To follow up the first few
days of activities, the Student
Center Board has announced a
tentative schedule of events for
the fall semester.
An activities fair will be held
the second week of classes. All
organizations wishing to participate should contact the Student
Center Board office. Any registered student organization is
eligible to participate in the
activities fair, which will be
held in the Great Hall of the
Student Center for the purpose
of informing students about the
various campus organizations

Fayette Grand Jury Reports
On Handling Of Protests

The Fayette Crand Jury issued a report Tuesday criticizthe
ing university officials,
courts, and the news media for
their handling of the May protest.
The grand jury accused the
courts of having "tied the hands
of our University officials in attempting to solve the problems
with undesirable students, professors and others.
'As an example of this problem, approximately 50 students
and several professors were arrested in the May 1970 flare-uOur courts dismissed the charges
completely or levied ridiculously low fines andor sentences."
About the University the report said: "It is also our impression that the University to
some extent is guilty of the
same leniency that it accuses
the court of.
"As an example, a student
convicted on a drug charge and
p.

sentenced to five years imprisonment with a probated sentence returned to the University
and was readmitted."
The grand jury met with UK
President Singletary to inform
him of "the tremendous concern by the citizens of this
commonwealth of the use of
our institutions by radicals, anarchists, communists, or others
whose purpose is to disrupt our
government or this University."
They also asked Singletary
what would be done to protect
campus buildings and the "rights
of the majority of the students
who attend this University for
the purpose of gaining an education."
Singletary assured the group
that assistance would be sought
when necessary to control any
situation that might arise,
life or property.
Alnnit the news media, the

and their requirements for membership.
The concert schedule for the
fall semester has also been confirmed. "Sha Na Na" will appear in concert on September
12. Tickets will go on sale at
the Student Center central information desk on Tuesday,
September 1. The Homecoming
concert will feature "Chicago,"
while the last concert of the fall
semester will present "The
."

Other programs planned by
the Student Center Board include an
Leadership
Conference, Homecoming festivities, Hanging of the Greens
and Forum UK's formal speaker series.
Although all plans are rather
tentative at the present time,
every committee has spaces
open for membership. Any full
time student who is not on academic probation may apply for
membership simply by contacting the Student Center Board

office

University of Kentucky graduate student, Peter Mitchell,
from Baltimore, Maryland, was
found guilty of violating the UK
Code of Student Conduct at
Tuesday's Judicial Board hearing. He was convicted on only
one of six charges against the
code.
Mitchell was placed on undated suspension for the first 30
days of the fall semester. He
will be allowed to attend classes
and university organizations,
but is barred from representing
the University in any official
capacity during the suspension
period.
Mitchell, a teaching assistant
in the philosophy department,
was found guilty of being involved in coercive acts in preventing two campus policemen
from getting off an elevator in
the Patterson Office Tower during the May 5 meeting of the
UK Board of Trustees.
Five counts of violating the
student code were dismissed.
They included: doing physical
violence to two campus police,
two counts of being arrested
during the May disturbances on
campus, and two counts of having urged the burning of the
ROTC building.
(Once on
April 4, and again on May 1.)
Mitchell claimed that he was
being "charged with things for
which the prosecution has no
evidence that the events occurred." He referred to the
charges as "fascist" and prior to
the hearing, released a statement that accused the UK administration of trying to "weed
out certain people from the
University."
In addition, the graduate student felt that the proceedings

brought by the administration
against UK students had caused
the student body to lose faith
"in the ability of the University
to respond to the demands for
change and liberalization."
One of the highlights of the
hearing arose when Mitchell's
counsel, Scott T. Wendelsdorf,
second-yea- r
law student, submitted a motion to declare Section 1.3a of the student code
unconstitutional.
This specific section of the
code makes it a punishable offense to "iaipede university operations or interfere with the
rights of others."
Following his motion to the
Judicial Board, Wendelsdorf
presented a long brief of federal
and state court decisions which
supported his view of the unconstitutionality of Section 1.3a.
After a brief recess, the board
ruled that it did not have the
power to declare the questionable section unconstitutional.
Although the board found
Mitchell guilty on one violation, the decision was not unanimous. Mitchell's counsel quoted
one member of the ' Judicial
Board as saying that he would
issue a dissenting opinion of the
verdict.
Wendelsdorf said that Mitchell's conviction would be appealed to the University Appeals Board.
Mitchell was the 16th student to appear before the UK
Judicial Board in regard to the
campus disorders which took
place in early May.
The board will meet again on
August 3t 'vvhen two more students will appear to answer for
charges of violating the student
conduct code.

New Kentuckian Editor Reacts
By SARA O'BRIANT
Kernel Staff Writer
"I really respect Alex's decision to publish the kind of book
she wanted, but . . .," was the

initial reaction of Susie Grims-lerecently chosen editor of
to the
the Kentuckian 1970-7much publicized controversy
surrounding the 1969-7- 0 edition
of the UK yearbook.
Speaking long distance from
New York City where she is
working for Warner Brothers
during the summer months,
Susie seemed to be properly
concerned about the situation
regarding the Kentuckian. "I
congratulate Alex on her book.
I'm glad she could get what
she wanted into print . . . but
as far as I can tell there isn't
much included at all about the
y,

1,

school.

"Too many people can't see
the connection between her
book and the University. The
kind of book I want to do would
make this connection. I think
the difference in Alex's book
and the kind of book that I
would do is that Alex has related the world outside UK to
the University whereas I would
relate the school to what's going on outside."
Miss Crimsley, a senior human relations topical major, be

lieves that a yearbook should be
more or less a "memory book"
rather than an editorial comment on social issues. "There
should be a little bit of challenge here and there, but you
can't cram it down people's
throats. That's not what they
want."
Miss
Crimsley has kept
abreast of the yearbook controversy mostly through letters and
newspaper clippings sent to her
by her parents and friends. The
idea that the Board of "Publications might impose some regulations on her and her staff this
fall greatly concerns her.
The Board of Publications
knows what I want to do.
Charlie (Reynolds) knows what
I want to do. I have been completely honest with them. I intend to make it a book al)out
the school. I have promised to
turn out a yearbook about the
school and I will.
"But I don't want any type of
censorship on my book. I don't
want any controls. This thing
about monthly checks and controls on the editor, I don't approve at all. I can't work that
way and I won't."
Does she think that pressure
from the Boaid of Publications
could persuade her to resign her

position as editor? No. Miss
Crimsley forsees no problem in
working with the Board of Publications if there is mutual cooperation, trust, and respect. "I
wouldn't quit unless it was an
entire walkout by the whole
staff. My quitting wouldn't affect the book. Before I would
consider quitting, the total staff
would have to agree to scrap
he whole thing."
Just what kind of book does
Miss Crimsley plan to present to
the students? Exactly the kind
of book which she described to

University Band Prepares

Hand is hard at work.
Marching
s
On August 23, the UK Hand
its "Carly Week" rehearsals,
marching and playing several
hours daily to prepare for the
opening football game. Theso
rehearsals may be several weeks
before that first game, but the
atmosphere is filled with an excitement that only football season and the opening of school
can bring. For each member of
the UK Hand this excitement
means public performance, competition and hopefully the appreciation of the tans, the press
and their fellow students.
This anticipation of the new
season follows a natural pride
in the recent success of the
Marching Band, at home and
awav. Tor the third straight
year the 1970 "Wildcat" Marching Hand will be the largest in
the school's history. With increases in membership putting
the band over 200 for the first
time last year, the band has

new hmge. The new Kkk in
the "Wildcat" Hand has come
about due to a new emphasis on
the band program by the University. Changes have included
the addition of girls as players,
majorettes and ilagbearers, the
purchase of new uniforms, the
large increase in membership,
and a new marching anil playing style.
The UK Hand has become a
precision drill band, with eme
and half-tim- e
phasis on
performances that have
brought the fans to their feet at
home and in other states. Added to these complex routines has
been a new concept of music,
with a wide range of styles created for the enjoyment of the
fans, from standard marches and
jazz to rock and the current pop
tunes.
In addition to performing at
each home football game, the
band makes two trips to "away"
games each year. This year's
plans call for trips to the first
game of the season at North
Carolina and to the final game
at Tennessee, UK's long standing rival, not only in sports but

UK Alum Directs Two One -Act Operas
By BETTY WAR EN
Many UK alumni dream of
being able to return to the University and make a significant
contribution to the field from
which they graduated. This is
precisely what will happen this
summer for UK Department of
Theatre Arts graduate, James
Hazlett. Jim has been hired by
the Department of Music as
Guest Technical Director for the
opDepartment's two one-aeras opening July 26: "The Servant Mistress" and "Cavalleria
Rusticana."
Jim is enthusiastic about being asked to return to UK as
guest technical director for the
two operas. "This is a fascinat- -.
ing and complicated area of music and theatre in which I have
had limited experience, so I
grabbed at the chance when it
was offered to me.
As a current teacher and
technical director of drama,
what particularly fascinates Jim
are the differences between the
two media. One of the major
differences between opera and
drama, Jim feels, is the importance of the audience in opera.
"For example," Jim comments,
"people don't go around singing
all the time. Yet the audience
watching the opera must make
this basic allowance in order to
fully enter into the experience
taking place on stage. Opera
often requires a greater audience adjustment in terms of believing what is reality on stage
than does straight drama."
A second difference Jim sees
evolves out of the special .
germane to operatic
and dramatic acting. 'Both the
operatic and dramatic actors
have only their bodies and

voices as means of communication. But the operatic singer
actor when singing is restricted
with w hat he can do with his
body because he must, of necessity, concentrate on his singing.
This often places the singer in
awkward acting situations such
as when CamUle dies in full
voice."
Jim is' a man of many diverging interests and creativities. He
received his undergraduate degree at UK in English with a
minor in Speech and Drama,
and his Master's degree in Technical Theatre. He is currently
teaching theatre and aviation at

opening football game. ThesD
rehearsals may be several weeks
before that first game, but the
atmosphere is filled with an excitement that only football season and the opening of school
can bring. For each member of
the UK Rand this excitement
means public performance, competition and hopefully the appreciation of the fans, the press
and their fellow students.
This anticipation of the new
season follows a natural pride
in the recent success of the
Marching Band, at home and
away. For the third straight
year the 1970 "Wildcat" Marching Hand will be the largest in
the school's history. With increases in membership putting
the band over 200 for the first
time last year, the band has
taken on new proportions and a

new image. The new look in
the "Wildcat" Hand has come
about due to a new emphasis on
the band program by the University. Changes have included
the addition of girls as players,
majorettes and Hagbearcrs, the
purchase of new uniforms, the
large increase in membership,
and a new marching and playing style.
The UK Hand has become a
precision drill band, with eme
and half-tim- e
phasis on
performances that have
brought the fans to their feet at
home and in other states. Added to these complex routines has
been a new concept of music,
with a wide range of styles created for the enjoyment of the
fans, from standard marches and
jazz to rock and the current pop
tunes.
In addition to performing at
each home football game, the
band makes two trips to "away"
games each year. This year's
plans call for trips to the first
game of the season at North
Carolina and to the final game
at Tennessee, UK's long standing rival, not only in sports but

being able to return to the University and make a significant
contribution to the field from
which they graduated. This is
precisely what will happen this
summer for UK Department of
Theatre Arts graduate, James
Hazlett. Jim has been hired by
the Department' of Music" as
Guest. Technical Director for the
opDepartment's two brie-aeras opening July 26: "The Servant Mistress" and "Cavalleria
Rusticana."
Jim is enthusiastic about being asked to return to UK as
guest technical director for the
two operas. "This is a fascinat-.- ;
ing and complicated area of music and theatre in which I have
had limited experience, so I
grabbed at the chance when it
was offered to me."
As a current teacher and
technical director of drama,
what particularly fascinates Jim
are the differences between the
two media. One of the major
differences between opera and
drama, Jim feels, is the importance of the audience in opera.
"For example," Jim comments,
"people don't go around singing
all the time. Yet the audience
watching the opera must make
Uu's basic allowance in order to
fully enter into the experience
taking place on stage. Opera
often requires a greater audience adjustment in terms of believing what is reality on stage
tlian does straight drama."
A second difference Jim sees
evolves out of the special . requirements germane to operatic
and dramatic acting. 'Both the
operatic and dramatic actors
have only their bodies and

Since the members of the
Marching Band are pursuing a

rehearsals are kept to a minimum. As soon as classes begin,
the band rehearses one hour
