Protesters in the crowd of

and ”stop the bombing" at Mr.
Rusk and booed and hissed when
he mentioned President Johnson.
Applause mingled with the jeers.
A brief fist fight erupted in a
balcony near the end of Mr.
Rusk's speech. When a youth
yelled "murderer" at Mr. Rusk,
g“ a middle-aged woman whacked
the heckler on his head with an
_ umbrella.
”i, “I am not here to engage
' in a shouting match with you,"
the secretary at one point told
. . the unme members of the crowd.
Mr. Rusk appeared unruffled at
the repeated interruptions.

 

‘I Agree' " "

.. When the demonstrators

' Rusk replied: “I agree, now—
negotiations now, if they are
willing."

BLOO'MINGTON, Ind. (UPI)—-Secretary of State Dean Rusk
exchanged words Tuesday with booing, catcalling antiwar dem-
onstrators who interrupted him after nearly every sentence of a

“The bombing can stop to-
morrow if we get a little help
from Hanoi," Mr. Rusk added.
“We should be able to know
what would happen if we stop."

Mr. Rusk said Hanoi has
shown no signs of a willingness
to talk even if the bombing of
North Vietnam were stopped.

“There is no peace for this
country if the rest of the world
is in chaos," Mr. Rusk warned
students and faculty members.

”If any of you suppose that
peace can be reached by letting
one small country after another
be gobbled up, then you've got
a lot to learn."

Outside, Signs And Rain

Sign-toting demonstrations
milled outside the university au-
ditorium in a light rain as Rusk
spoke. They did not interfere as
helmeted police carrying night-
sticks escorted the secretary from
the auditorium.

Thirty-seven antiwar demon-
strators were arrested on the carn-
pus Monday when they staged
a sit-down in the School of Bus-
iness building and refused to
leave peaceably. They were
charged with disorderly conduct.

Mr. Rusk told an audience at
Columbus, Ind., Monday night
that "Hanoi undoubtedly has
been encouraged by the peace
demonstrations in this country."

Students, What Did You
Do With Those Pots?

Where have all the flower pots gone? And the swivel chairs?

And the TV set?

Answers to these questions—
and others equally mysterious—-
are sought by Daniel Wentz, head
of UK’s Insurance Department,
and Devaughn Pratt, supervisor
of purchasing.

Their problem is that they are
losing things. And they're losing
them, apparently, to students
who feel they need plant pots,
swivel chairs and TV sets more
than the University does.

Mr. Pratt estimates that stu-
dents moonlighting as theives al-
ready have absconded with more
than $2,500 worth of University
property from the Complex alone.

Mr. Wentz, whois responsible
for the insurance angle, finds all
this ”disappointing." He adds
that the University will have no
funds to replace much of the lost
merchandise.

High on his catalogue ofwoes:
”We purchased eight modern
swivel chairs for the men's tower,
and the next day five were stolen. "

Mr. Pratt counters with a
complaint of his own:

“We purchased several $45
plant pots and left them outside
overnight at the Complex so the
florist would transfer plants into

 

them. When the florist arrived,
the pots had vanished. I don't
know why — or how — people
would steal pots weighing 60
pounds each."

And, of course, there is the
nameless student enjoying his
favorite TV programs at the ex-
pense of the University.

Theft isn't the only problem,
however. Mr. Pratt is equally ex-
asperated by students who used
an expensive Complex coffee
table as a footstool. ”The last
time I saw it," he said, “it was
literally eaten away."

GRAMBLING, La. (UPI) ——
Brig. Gen. Thomas Bonner an-
nounced Tuesday he was de—
activating 500 of the 616 Louis-
iana National Guardsmen who
have stood watch for four days
over tense student demonstra-
tions at predominantly Negro
Crambling College.

He said he would withdraw‘
the final unit Wednesday if the
situation at the college remained
calm Tuesday night.

Some students continued a
boycott of classes at the sports-
proud state school Tuesday, but
most of them returned to class-
rooms.

School officials said the six-
day protest seemed to be ”run-
ning out of steam" following the
explusion of 27 student leaders
Monday.

Began Wednesday

About 300 helmeted troops
guarded the campus Monday
night but were moved back to
the nearby Ruston, La., armory
Tuesday morning. A total of 616
troops have been kept on astand-
by basis at Ruston since Satur-
day.

Students began boycotting
classes last Wednesday in a de-
mand for higher academic stand-
ards and less emphasis on sports
at the state school, one of the na-
tion's top producers of profes-
sional athletes.

At least 27 students were ex-
pelled Monday for their roles in
blocking building entrances last
week. They ended the blockade
Saturday but said the boycott
would continue.

UL, Kentucky Southern
Confirm Merger Talk

LOUISVII LE, Ky. (AP)

The presidents of the University of

Louisville and Kentucky Southem College confirmed Tuesday that
talks are under way on a possible merger of the two schools.

”There have been discus-
sions," Louisville President Dr.
Philip Davidson said. ”Nothing
has been officially determined
as yet."

Dr. Rollin S. Burhans, Ken-
tucky Southern president, agreed
with Davidson, saying, ”There's
been nothing official or binding
in any way.

Bob Schmidt, a student leader
at Sacramento State College, of-
fered this theory:

”It is indicative of the entire
disillusionment, the entire frus-
tration, of our generation against
what we feel have been lies told
to us . . . on marijuana as well
as other issues.

“We have been told it is an
addictive narcotic, told it leads
to the use of heroin, told it is
physically destructive. We found
these were lies."

A girl marijuana user in Bis-
marck, N.D., asked “Why do
people drink? Why does a drink
really taste good now and then?
Marijuana has the same effect,
only its not as habit forming as
alcohol." _

Dr. James L. Goddard, direc-

Gordon Ford, a Kentucky
Southern trustee, indicated that
a merger would provide Louis-
ville with Kentucky's Southern's
campus, which would be'”an
ideal move for the U of L."

Governor’s Race Conceals Lively Subcampaign

By SY RAMSEY
FRANKFURT, (AP) — Over-
shadowed by the governor's race
is a lively scrap between two
energetic, youthful politicians
who are campaigning as though
all of Kentucky is watchingthem.

State Sen. Wendell Ford of

Owensboro is the Democratic
nominee for lieutenant governor
and Thomas Ratliff of Pikeville
is his Republican foe.

There has been no direct con-
frontation yet, and Ford has ac-
cused Ratliff of dodging a do
hate.

Ratliff says F ord’s attitude is
childish and he would be ‘ ‘tickled
to death” to argue the issues.

is unknown to the public be-
cause news coverage of the lieu-
tenant govemor's race has been
largely omitted except for local
appearances.

Debate Repetitious?

Even if Ford and Ratliff held
a great debate, what could they
say that the gubernatorial con-
tenders have not already covered?

Very little, judging by what
both are saying on the campaign
trail. Ford and Ratliff acknowl-
edge they are sticking to the party
scripts in their public travels.

But the situation holds more
potential than the political
speeches indicate.

For one thing, an odd event
has cropped up in some parts
of Western Kentucky—the dis-
play of bumper stickers promot-
ing a ticket of Ford and Repub-
lican gubernatorial nominee
Louie B. Nunn.

Ford claims he has never seen
such a sticker, but adds:

”When a fellow has 90 per-
cent of the vote in Owensboro,
you try to tie on to him. So
Nunn's trying to tie on to me."

The statement is somewhat
different than Ford's earlier re-
action. At that time he said he
was not responsible for what
his supporters did.

ecutive tries to make it clear

that he is with Democratic nom-
inee Henry Ward, win or lose.

“I endorsed him in the pri-
mary, we have worked closely
together, we’re good friends and
we’re both interested in Ken-
tucky's future," he said.

Ford's Future

But political cynics believe
some of Ford's backers care about

.nothing except his victory and a

shot at the govemorship in 1911.

They theorize that things
might be easier for Ford if Nunn
won because Ford would thenbe
titular head of the Democratic
party and not required to wait
for Ward's blessing.

Such talk is rubbish, Ford
said, adding, ”I have been brag-
ging on Henry, there's agrounds-
well everywhere and we feel we're
going to win big."

Ford has been secretly pushed

Republican Reunion

Ratliff, 41, finds himself in
the not unusual position, for a
Kentucky politician, of warmly
endorsing a man he castigated
during the bitter Republican pri-

mary.

 

$1.00

As a running mate of Jeffer-
son County Judge Marlow W.
Cook, Ratliff blistered Nunn on
allegations of racial and religious
bigotry.

Now, Ratliff says he is
”amazed and well pleased at
how quickly we all got to-
gether." ‘

As Pike County common-
wealth’s attorney, Ratliff was
vaulted into state prominence
in the sedition case against sev-
eral antipoverty workers in East-
em Kentucky which preceded the
general election campaign.

“It was my duty to prose~
cute," he said. “It was nothing
unusual. The grand jury indicted

five people ...and I had no
choice."
This is an oblique reply to

criticism that the sedition cases

may have been politically moti-
vated.

Ratliff said that when a three
man federal court recently struck
down the key section of the sedi-
tion statute, ”It was a great day
for communism."

Questions on the sedition is—
sue arise "wherever I go and 1
must be circumspect in my an-
swers," Ratliff said.

He said he is waiting to pre-
sent all his evidence to a US.
Senate subcommittee in the next
few months.

Ford is an aggressive Jaycee.
He headed the national organi-
zation once and is capitalizing
on his contacts with many who

now are established businessmen.

Ratliff, with less of a political
base, relies on his feeling that
Kentuckians believe ”it's really
time for a change . . .Ford has
been part and parcel of what
the people want to get rid of."

Ford is a native of Daviess
County, a Baptist, attended the
University of Kentucky, is mar-
ried and has two children.

Ratliff was born at Hellier in
Pike County, is a graduate of
both Pikeville College and the
University of Kentucky law
school. He is married/With four
children and belongs to the Meth-
odist Church.

Forming a Reciprocal Infor-

discussed by the Student Center
Board Forum Committee at its
Monday night meeting.

The Service would provide
an exchange of information
among the schools about their
programs and perhaps an inter-

cording to Les Rosenbpum, Fo-

The Committee is checking to
see if nearby schools are inter-

Cov. John]. McKeithen, who
activated the guardsmen last Fri-
day night said the troops would
remain in the area as long as
school officials wanted them.

‘Back To Normal’

However Public Relations Di-
rector (Jollie Nicholson indica-
ted Tuesday that state, not
school, officials would determine
if the guardsmen returned to the
campus or were just held on a
standby basis at Ruston.

Earlier Mr. Nicholson said
the troops were withdrawn Tues-
day morning because school of-
ficials decided “everything was
back to normal."

“I guess they figured that with
the Guard present, a school
couldn’t get back to its routine,"
he said.

Later Mr. Nicholson said: “I
feel they will probably be back
tonight.”

The student protest leader-
ship calling themselves “The In-
formers," roamed the main street
of this small North Louisiana
town Tuesday, distributing cop-

ies of a mandate for the admin—
istration and urging students to
resign.

A ‘Boxful'

A box placed on one street
corner was overflowing with what
the protest leaders said were let—
ters of resignation. The college
said it would not accept resig-
nations at this time.

”We will accept no resigna-
tions until those students who
disrupted the school last week
by blockading the administration
building can be disciplined," Mr.
Nicholson said. ”If we let them
resign they would be able to re
apply in the spring."

The administration shrugged
off the protest again Tuesday,
calling the expelled student lead-
ers ” a minority group of radi-
cals.”

Willie Zanders, who was pres-
ident of the student government
before his expulsion Monday, said
the six-day-old protest had noth-
ing to do with race.

Zanders said the students re-
sent what they call "special pri—
vileges handled to Crambling's
star athletes."

 The Kernel Libels Itself; Decides AgaiiistSirit;What ls OCSA?

The Kernel libeled itself yester-
day, and perhaps we ought to sue
us.

In his letter to the editor, a
University student asserted that
a signed column on the editorial
page of the Oct. 24 Kernel (repro-
duced below) communicated the
following marvelous things:

a. Lies, underneath “banner
headlines"

b. Misrepresented [verifiable
facts?]

0. Indicated the editors’ posi-
tion, by its location on the page.

In this same letter, the student
also said that:

d. The Kernel does not repre
sent the opinion of the student
body.

e. Purported to give a proper
picture of a member of The Kernel
stafl and his motives, and the ac-
tual state of an organization.

f. Accused this same Kernel staff
member of the possession of a
twisted mind, causing an organi-
zation to die, and further accused
David Holwerk of having made
speeches predicting the doom of
the OE Campus Student Associa-
tion, last spring.

g. Accused David of repeated
failures.

h. Asserted that The Kernel
”gave full coverage" to an event
which OCSA sponsored, “one pic—
ture and no story, days after the
event."

i. Said that The Kernel is Mr.
Holwerk’ s irresponsible tool, which
David uses for his personal aim.

j. Accused The Kernel of being
self-centered, a student financed
blot, supported by student fees.

k. Accused The Kernel of de-
taining letters to the editor in
some manipulative fashion.

I. Accused The Kernel of hold-
ing no student opinions,which The
Kernel should hold as superior to
its own, or else fire the present
editors or discontinue t1: paper.

Cranting that Thom Pat Juul
has a vested right to his personal
opinions,

Accusing him of telling things
that are not so,

Believing that there are other
students at the University suffer-
ing from his malady, the inabil-
ity to read a newspaper,

Mr. Thom Pat Juul, present,
past, incumbent, or up for reelec-
tion president of the Off Campus
Student Organization, allegedly re-
presenting more than 8,000 students
at this University who do not live
on campus, and chairman, desig-
nated, elected or appointed, of
something called the Student Asso-
ciation at the University, repre-
senting somebody or some group
ofbodies at the University, is here-
by severely taken to task.

A. There are no lies (false state-
ments made with deliberate intent

to deceive; intentional untruths)
in the cited column by David Hol-
werk.

B. There are no misrepresented
verifiable facts in this column.
Signed columns on the editorial
page of the newspaper represent

 

“I mean, I can only remember being
wrong once . . . and that, naturally, was
when I thought I was wrong but found
out I was right!”

the views of the writer, not the
editors. The opinion of the edi-
tors is contained in the editorial
columns, which like this one, are
printed in type bigger than other
body type contained in the paper,
and spaced out wider between the
lines. Editorials represent the opin-
ions of an organization. They are
unsigned because they are bigger
than any individual who writes
them. At their very best, editorials
are informed opifiitmsr At their
worst, mere opinions. The func-
tion of an editorial is primarily to
express an opinion. The opinion
page of The Kernel strives to ful-
fill this vital community function:
to serve as a forum and a stimu—
lus for comment and criticism, lead—
ing its readers to formulate their
own opinions, challenging readers
to commit themselves, and goading
readers into a responsibly critical
posture toward the world in which
they live. As an example, Mr. Juul,
look at the editorial page of the
Courier-Joumal some day. General-
ly in the upper left hand corner of
the page you will find the opin-
ions of that newspaper. Right hand
corner generally has the cartoon
opinions of Mr. Hugh Haynie,
signed, and occasionally different
from, in subtle ways, the editorial
views of the Courier-Journal. Un-
derneath the cartoon are generally
two columns of letters to the edi-
tor, in type smaller than the edi-
torial-column type. In the lower
left hand corner of the Courier-
Journal editorial page there is gen-
erally found a signed column, by
such noted journalists as James
Reston, Joseph Kraft, Tom Wicker,
and Russell Baker. The Kernel has,
and will continue, to duplicate

sonable men must grant the exis-
tence of as many as 15,(X)0 student
opinions ambulating about the
campus. We do not represent stu-
dent opinion. On our editorial page
the perceptive reader generally
finds these words: “Editorials re-
present the opinions of the Edi~
tors, not the University.” Students,
in our opinion, are the University.

Mr. Juul, you are hereby defied
to produce the definitive student
opinion of the student body of the
University of Kentucky on some
topical issue. If we had it we'd
print it. We'd welcome it. We
worked over 200 unpaid man-hours
to get the student opinion which
we have printed to date on four

nam War. Professors donated their
time to help us. The Registrar,
Vice President Robert L. Johnson,
and the people in the computing
center, and 380 University students
who were phoned at home, and
countless others donated hundreds
of unpaid hours to help The Kernel
obtain the precious little student
opinion other than letters, which
we have printed to date.

And now down to the nitty-
gritty.

There is no off campus student
association, though there be a group
which calls itself such. While there
exists a class of peoiie at the Uni-
versity who do not live on campus,
no association purportedly repre-
senting this class of people can do
so until students join such associ-
ation, by the performance of a spe
cific act, like signing something,
or taking one step forward, or be-
coming a card-carrying member.
If we accept Mr. Juul’s figures,
500 students who were present and
voting in last spring's election, and
if none were graduating seniors
who have left campus, and if the
act of voting is that symbolic act,
then at best Mr. Jim], you repre-
sent 500 people. No more. And if
the occasion this semester when
eight people attended one of your
meetings, four of whom were Kernel
staff members, then it is submitted
you represent far fewer than 500.
and more like four students.

To The Kernel '3 knowledge there
has never been a quorum of Illt'
elected ('r’) membership of your al-
