Cha rlcsworth, professor of economics. “but there may be good news in ‘76 again." .le cited the UCLA and Wharton forecasts which predict a bottoming-out for the economy in the fourth quarter of 1975. (‘IIARIJCSWORTII AND four other economics instructors spoke at the “forecasting session" of the seminar. The five speakers are also members of the. Secretariat of the Kentucky Council of Economic Advisors. Following the forecasting session was a “special problems“ session during which three businessmen gave their views on specific economic policies and their ef- fects. 0 Several speakers at the forecasting session discussed the economic outlook for Kentucky in the next two years. ECONOMICS INSTRl'(‘TOR Charles Renfro said economic indicators forecast an approximate eight per cent rise in Kentucky personal income in 1975, with a decline in employment reaching a rate of over seven per cent. He predicted the unemployed would be evenly divrrletx among the state's industries. ()ne state industry recession will no. affect is the coal industry. Renfro said. He said the increased demand for coal would sustain employment for miners and for those industries which supply the goods needed for coal mining operations. Renfro added the state's agriculture industry would be unaffected by recession, citing the sustained demand for food Dlt.

HOWEVER. Hl'l.TMAN said trade deficits are projected for most of 1975 and 1976. He attributed deficits mainly to the higher cost of imported oil. rrii: SEMINAR‘S most optimistic speaker was Dr. Alan Gart. an economist with the Girard Bank of Philadelphia. Although (Lart said the current recession "will be the longest and deepest since World War ll,“ he foresaw the recession as “finally breaking the back of inflation." Gait, who spoke in the special problems session. praised the Federal Reserve Board for its tight-money policy in com- batting inflation. He said the policy was effective. and noted a drop in industrial commodities and air-fare pices. “I predict price cuts any day now tor automobiles.

Three pieces of “commercial paper,“ or promissory notes, in the Penn Central Transponation (‘0. were purchased from the New York firm by the University. the Athletic Association and the UK Research Foundation (UKRF) in early 1970 for a total of nearly $1 million. IN Jl'NE 1970. prior to the maturity date of the first UK-related note. Penn Central filed for reorganization under the National Bankruptcy Act. The investments would have been worth $1 miilion at maturity. Lawrence Porgy. vice president for business affairs and University treasurer. explained to the Board of Trustees Tuesday that the amount of the settlement averages 65 cents for each dollar paid out. He said an offer in 1972 from Goldman and Sachs of 20 cents per dollar was rejected by University officials. UNDER THE settlement, Porgy ex- plained. the University and the related corporations will retain the commercial paper. and will be able to receive any financial settlements as a result of the pending bankruptcy of the transportation company. The current settlement is only between the University. its affiliated corporations and Goldman and Sachs—not Penn (‘entral itself.

(SART ALSO foresaw the im- plementation of wage and price controls. “We could well see wage and price controls for political reasons, though they're not needed. It could be an excuse for pnlilticians to pat themselves on the back and get reelected." Gart said. George Martin, past president of the National Association of Homebuilders. did not share Gait's admiration for United States‘ monetary policy. Martin. also speaking at the special problems session. blamed the Federal Reserve Board for causing “the current chaos in the money mortgage market." Martin said he will propose to the Kentucky Housing Corporation that $100 million of new funds be made available for low-interest home and rental—unit loans. This. he said, would help revive the state's flagging housing industry. Editor-incniel. Linda Carries Managua editor. Ron Mitchell Associate editor. Nancy Duty The process of party reform is a slow and arduous one, as the Demo- crats learned during two years of drafting an unprecedented party charter. On the surface, the Kansas City charter convention may appear to have been a rubber-stamp affair. But the charter is actually a result of two years of intense bargaining between diverse party factions. The idea of a Democratic Party charter was conceived by the McGovern-Fraser reform com- missions, which attempted to democratize delegate selection prior to the 1972 convention. The con- vention that nominated George McGovern also mandated the creation of a charter-a set of rules for governing the party. The end result of the charter Features editor. Larry Mead Arts edIC'. Gnu Hotelr‘ Sports editor. Jim Manom ment of purpose and procedure acceptable to most of the new Democratic Party coalition. Adop— tion of the controversial Article Ten—the section dealing with “af- firmative action“ in party affairs— was not really a major concession to party "reformers". Pragmatic Dem- ocratic leaders. especially Chairman Robert Strauss, now recognize the increasing electoral power of women. youth. blacks and the college- educated. The Democratic factions most dis- pleased with Article Ten are those with the most to lose by opening the party's doors. Only a relatively small segment of organized labor and the most reactionary Southern elements voice opposition to full participation provisions. Their objection to airing out smoke-filled roams is outdated in editorials Editorials represent the opinions ot the editors Editorial page editor, Dan Ciulctier Piiaograptiy edito' Ed Gerald Democrats attempt to democratize party The most promising features of the charter, besides Article Ten, are the Democratic National Committee “sunshine" provision, abolition of the unit rule and creation of a Judicial Council to approve state delegate selection plans and settle credentials disputes. However, rejecting mandatory midterm conferences was a mistake. Close roll call voting on this issue was the only clear-cut victory for party “regulars“. who fear such confer— ences would only spawn further party in—fighting. But future conferences composed of democratically elected delegates would provide sorely needed direction to legislators and executives often out of touch with the sense of the electorate. Of course the real test of the charter conference's value will be the comv nominating convention and the 94th Congress. The Kansas City conven- tion also adopted a far-reaching economic policy resolution, which obstensibly could go a long way in reversing the Republican “Nixonomic” quagmire. Strangely enough. a Republican Party policy committee also met this weekend to consider party reform measures. Euphemistically termed “positive action" programs are in the works to broaden the base of their scandal-scarred party. But the Republicans have even further to go than the Deomocrats in salvaging what is left of the two-party system. As McGovern told the assembled Democrats Saturday, the American people are tired of mere words about change. they have called on the nation‘s leadership to do the commission‘s deliberations is a state- 'Subiectively' View from the top: A long way down By JOHN SCHAAF The Patterson Office Tower is an extremely large building. From the 18th floor. Lexington. covered with trees. stretches toward the horizon. It looks like any other medium-sized metro- polis. its problems hidden from the top-floor observer by a thick foliage blanket. The decayed housing and scum-ridden city politicians down below are not discernable from up there. It's like watching a hungry crocodile glide through a swamp. The big croc‘s soft. slimy uinderbelly lies danger— ously nearby but is invisible below the water which is lapping his scaly back. THE UNIVERSITY of Ken- tucky Board of Trustees met on that top floor of the Patterson Office Tower yesterday. Many of the trustees seemed to know as much about the concerns of students as that swamp-watcher knows about crocodile stomachs. Just as the problems of a city are not discernible from 800 feet in the air. neither are the problems of a university discern- ible to people such as those who sit on the Board of Trustees. The UK trustees are a magnifi- cient cross—section of the uni- versity community. Sitting around the table yesterday were two professors, one student. and about 13 of the state‘s most successful bankers. lawyers. coal-mine owners and oli corpor— ation heiresses. THIS LATEST meeting was insane. It began with a prayer and moved directly into a resolu. tion commending Lexington ‘fi~ nancier‘ Gai'vice Kincaid. The prayer and the resolution were both designed to praise those who have aided the university but can‘t understand how God got the trustees to do the prayer before they did Garvice's resolution. After a couple of commenda- tions for those who were not quite as deserving as the first two, the Board moved into serious busi- ness. Board member Frank Ramsey asks that Cliff Hagan be made the new UK Athletic Director. Damn. Hagan and Ramsey. a couple of the good ole boys making it big at the alma mater. Man. if good ole Coach Rupp walked through that door right now, Cliff and Frank would jump up and down and the whole crowd would probably go crazy. What a brain‘bender. WELL. they got good ole Cliff voted in all right. Then they moved into the serious business of increasing visitation privileges in the dorms for the first—year students and, what's this?. my God. they want to let sophomores into coed dormitories. Well, that just did not get it. Student Government President David Mucci suggested that the Board accept these changes be cause that‘s what students want- ed. The Board was bored. That punk Mucci must be crazy. They voted him down almost unanimously. The excellent rela- tionship between students and adminstrators which had been established just a few days ago when the Student Senate voted against the gay dance had gone straight to hell on a train driven by Otis Singletary. AS THE SHADOW 0f the Office Tower began to lengthen across Euclid Avenue and almost up to Keeneland Hall. the Board ad- journed the meeting and. at least for 30 days. we are safe. .lohn Schaaf's column ‘Siih- jectiiity‘. appears in the Kernel talmostl every Wednesday. this post-Watergate era. 1!) lOOK AT THE MISERAILE BE position of the 1976 presidential ANY MONEY . . .l’ Letters to the editor Saddened by gay decision I find the decision by Student Government (SC) to “chicken out" of sponsoring the Gay Coalition dance horribly and hysterically ironic; in that the move to change the prior com— mitmentwasforced by a group of Greeks. whose own initiatory tortures are traditionally ta tradition substantially un- changed) infamously rife with overt homosexual activity. This letter is not intended to reflect badly upon Greeks. but rather to point out that homosexuality is an aspect of nearly everyone’s humanity. and as such, it should not be used by anyone to persecute another. If those Senators who were leading the move to end SG support of the dance were more honest in stating their views. they probably should have said that they were afraid of having to confront their own sexuality by being in any way connected with an organization that would promote or condone gay activity. [should hope that the individuals who guide SG. or for that matter. any level of government would be above the need to assuage their personal fears. and would promote the well-being of all people. A university has the obligation to provide for every group of students the opportunity to come together to explore any reasonable facet ofhuman life It would seem that if ROTC can be tolerated marching about the Plaza. then a group of students. whose interests are definitely more peaceful. should certainly be extended the right to have a dance in the Student (‘enter Ballroom The fickle arrogance displayed by the SC is just another reason why students must not take it seriously, David I,.

Quite frankly. Mr. Stith. your attitude stinks What can you possibly fear from these people? That no one will ask you to to the dance?

Immediately you phone a school administrator whom you know is gay. You explain your problem. He commiserates and gives you the name of a lawyer who might be willing to defend a homosexual. The administrator promises some sort of cover for you missing your classes that morning. Though he can meet with you only five minutes, the lawyer gets the preliminary hearing delayed a couple of months to get a more symphathetic judge. He also sets you up fora pre-trial evaluation with a court-hired social worker. l'l’ TO THIS point. despite all the emotional strain and all the turmoil and all the strain on you and your relationships. despite the price you have already paid. you are legally innocent. You haven‘t been proven guilty of anything. To top it off. if word of your arrest gets out. you will lose your job. If you are judged guilty, you face a possible ninety days in jail and $500 fine. After some more juggling. you case isn't heard until November. More waiting. more anxiety. more worry about notoriety. loss of job. fear of publicity. Maybe you will eventually get justice. but it will be justice delayed. And justice delayed is justice denied. It isn't till December that you are sentenced. YOL' WONDER: What kind of person wants to do this kind of police work? Does he do it for the money? You wonder: How can I possibly be guilty of a “crime“ when [didn‘t do anything? You wonder: Why is fellatio sodomy? Why isn’t cunnilingus defined as sodomy too? You wonder: Why can women fellate legally while men cannot? The same act. the same behavior is legal for women but criminal for men. Why did you get arrested? You were not a public nuisance like the hustlers. The police couldn‘t have singled you out, because you very rarely go to Fourth Street. You hadn‘t been there for months prior to your arrest. It was just dumb luck. But how many others get arrested like you every night? How long will it go on before someone risks his job and the other consequen- ces of public exposure by speaking out against this cruelty? Eventually you are found guilty, placed on a two year probation, and fined $200. Your lawyer succeeds in keeping your name out of the papers. You continue teaching. Marshall Arisman No factual foundation for ‘Greek coalition' label By (‘llARLIE PHILLIPS because associate editor Nancy Daly and tion whatsoever to their statements in Unless Jones believes that being Greek I believe a few questions should be raised and a few comments made regard- ing Kernel articles of Dec. 4 (on the efforts to reverse Student Government‘s decision to sponsor a dance for Gay Coalition) and Dec. 6 (on the reversal of 86‘s decision to sponsor the dance) and references in those articles to members of UK‘s fraternities and sororities. The Dec. 4 article states that. “Sources within Student Government tSG) indicate that there is a Greek reaction against the dance..." QI'ICS’I‘HW I: Who are the “sources within Student Government?" Were their names omitted by their request. or staff writer Susan Jones saw no reason to divulge those sources. or because the names were not known to the Kernel? To hide the “sources" brings the credibility of both the Kernel and Student Go. ernment into question. I can understand protecting one‘s source if that source stands to lose his or her job or suffer other major repercussions as a result of releasing the information. but this hardly seems the case in this instance. Question 2: What standards are used to determine a “Greek reaction?" (‘annot student senators make statements reflect- ing their own opinions or those of their constituencies without those statements being associated with the students' status in other campus organizations. especially when that status has no political connec- Student Government. In the article of Dec. 6. reference was made to a ”Greek coalition." which voted for the recission of the motion to sponsor the dance. To argue the denotation and connotation of the word coalition is an exercise in semantics. If Jones defines the situation as a coalition. then that is her privilege. However. to label it a Greek coalition. has no factual basis. The proof seemed to be that 18 of 21 Greek senators voted in favor of the recission. Member- ship in a fraternity or sorority is unrelated to the subject of the gay dance. and trying to set up a correlation between the two is the poorest use of statistical methods. If 18 sparrows sit on a telephone wire and 3 sparrows sit on the telephone pole. does the fact that they are sparrows have any relevance to where they choose to sit? has some effect on the way a senator votes, why even bring it up and risk the possibility of conveying that implication or any of a number of other implications that can be drawn from her statement? I REALIZE that l have disputed only a small part of each article. and except for those parts. the articles were well-written and the facts seemed well-documented. However. I feel that the parts I have mentioned deserved special consideration. as the implications that might be drawn from those parts could unnecessarily alienate Greeks from other groups on this campus. such as Gay (‘oalition and student senators who are not Greek (‘harlie Phillips is president of the lntrafraternity (‘oiincil. t—TIII‘I KI‘INTl'l‘KY KI‘IRNEL.
