Students for Reagan-McConnell '84,
John Voskuhl. (‘dllOF-ln-Chlt‘l of the
Kentucky Kernel will moderate the
forum. The event is sponsored by

theKornel and the Student Govern-
ment Association.

The organizations decided to have
the forum to inform students of the
issues. which. according to John
Miller. SGA political affairs chair-
man. are very important.

“We need something so students
can make an intelligent choice." he
said. “Students are more aware of
politics that affect them (than in the
past."

There will be six questions dealing
with specific areas of national con-
cern in the forum. Each participant

Architecture library
receives rare books

By JANICE GALLAGHER
Reporter

A collection of rare books valued
at $7.000 was recently donated to the
Hunter S Adams :‘irchitecture I.l'
Mary in Pence Hall from the family
of a former l'K architect. t'liftoii
Marshall

Marshall s wife. Margaret. said at
the dedication progi'aiii that her latc
husband wanted 'llt- Son \<)lumes. on
subjects such as lt‘t'ltlltt'ill literature
and illustrations or l‘liiglish 'l‘udor
houses. to be gm: to the tll‘t'llllt't"

payment for his use of the library

Marshall, who had established his
own firm in Hweiisboro. Ky. was
the t‘niversity Architect for [K for
15 years until 15th He sery ed as the
national president for the Associa
tioii of t'iiiyersity .~\rchitects tll 1981!
and published a book titled A Brit-i
History of the Assot 'iilam, u' Lriiw'
sitv Art-lutet ls

What makes the books so \aluahle
is that Marshall collected them over
a long period of time and most of
them are out of print. said Paul \Vil
lis. director of l'K librariw

”These books are works of art
compared to the ones published

today." Willis said. “Since many are
older books. history students will
benefit from them too."

Anthony Eardley. dean of the col-
lege of architecture. said this means
a great deal to the library. "Al—

. though this is not a vast collection. it

is a substantial gift. The library is
lucky to buy 300 books a year." he
said.

"The kind of books from the Mar-
shall collection were published in
the ‘20s. ‘30s. ‘40s. and a few in the
‘30s. and were expensive when they
were new." he said "There is scare
cely a ti le we could find in a dealer
catalog today "

James Birchf'ield. head of collec-
tions development for [K libraries.
said the Marshall collection is
sought out by academic universities
and collectors everywhere Most of
the books were published in the
timed States and a few were pub
lished in London. he said

The books are currently in the
process of being cataloged in the
M l King Library. Most of the books
should be available for circulation in
about a year although some of the
books may be used as reference
only. Birchfield said.

three minute closing statement from
each participant.

There will be no opportunities for
rebuttal at the event. “because we
want this to be a forum and not a
debate." Voskuhl said.

Both organizations seemed
pleased that the event was going to
take place.

Susan Brothers. president of
Young Democrats. said she hoped
for good attendance. “I feel that it‘s
going to be very advantage0us to
students. 1 hope a lot will attend."
she said.

Brothers said students should find
out where the presidental candidates

stand on the issues. "A lot of stu-
dents are riding the line as to
whom to vote fort They want to be
convinced. Students need to hear
both sides and weigh the issues."
she said.

Bisig agreed. “We want to get the
issues out . " he said.

The national debates have helped
Democratic challenger Walter F.
Mondale's position by convincmg
voters to switch to his side. Brothers
said. She hopes the local forum will
convince students to also switch to
Mondale.

Bisig said he thought the forum

would make students vote for Presi
dent Reagan.

“I'm certain that after witnessing
the debate. more of the majority
will see Ronald Reagan is in the
best interest of their future and
America's future." Bisig said.

The organizations were given the
questions beforehand to prepare for
the forum. Voskuhl said the ques-
tions were released in advance “to
give the forum participants a
chance to go to their campaign
headquarters and get information.“

Miller said the forum was de-

signed to present the opinions of
Mondale and Reagan. not those of
Mankins and Bisig

The forum will be “a discussion of
what the candidates stand for.”
Miller said "You should get an un
derstanding of what Mr Reagan‘s
and Mr Mondale's stances are on is-
sues that affect you as a student and
a citizen of the ("fitted States "

Miller says he expects about too
people will attend the forum "Peo-
ple say politics is boring This will
dispel that notion." he said "It will
be an evening of education and un-
derstanding ‘

‘J ohn-Boy’ to support artists’ program

phy of Hamners life growing up in
the Blue Ridge town of Schuyler
V'a

According to Hamner. Appalachi»
an artists owe much of their talent

Ry FRAN STEWART
Senior Staff Writer

John~Boy Walton was a typical
Appalachian boy. growing up in a
typical Appalachian family during
the midst of the Depression.

His sense of family unity and
pride was strong. his ambitions
were noble and his life was simple.

But John—Boy the character was
merely an extension of Earl Hamner
the writer.

Through books and television se.
ries Hamner has allowed the Amer-
ican people a glimpse of strong fam-
ily ties — the ties often seen in the
Appalachian families of his youth

And now Hamner will give back to
his heritage some of what it has
given him.

Hamner will serve as honorary
chairman of a new endowment pro-
gram for Appalachian artists. Rob-
ert Dills. coordinator of the project.
announced Friday at a press confer~
ence in the [K Appalachian Center

According to Dills. the endowment
was established to provide grants
for area artists. allowing them more
financial security to pursue their
creative endeavors

Hamner typifies a man from the
Appalachian region who has made a
big impact in his field. Dills said

Hamner said he feels an obligation
and responsibility to support Appa-
lachian artists

"A lot of people helped me when l
was starting my career." he said. "I
feel it's a way of putting something
back in the barrel "

Adopt-A-House

Greeks gather to refurbish buildings in Kenton Street area

By NATALIE (‘AL'DILL
Staff Writer

Saturday's Adopt-A-House pro-
gram. which was sponsored by Zeta
Tau Alpha sorority, Sigma Nu fra-
ternity and the bexington-Fayette
Urban County government. was so
effective that Mayor Scotty Baesler
suggested that it be repeated in the

spring.

in about five hours. more than 400
fraternity and sorority members
scraped and painted 11 houses and a
church in the 400 block of Kenton
Street. an area near Gratz Park
downtown. The street was blocked
off for the project.

The Adopt-A-House originated foui
years ago. but this is the first year
that the government has been in-
volved with the project.

According to Julie Schmitt. Zeta
Tau Alpha co-chairwoman. much of
the program‘s success should be
credited to the city government
wiuch nippliod nuterials that in the
postdochopten hod pin-chased.

“The City has just been tremen-
dous We couldn't have done it with
out them.” she said. "This is the
first time we have done this on a
large scale. It costs approximately
$8 per gallon of paint and that‘s a lot
of money to ask of any chapter."

Schmitt said the fraternity and so-
rority members used 50 gallons of
paint. 150 brushes and 150 scrapers.
but one problem was that there were
so many volunteers and not enough
supplies.

"We just had more people than
supplies" said Gene 'l‘ichenor. 5th
District councilman. who financially
contributed to the project.

"l‘m enthusiastic." he said. "I
didn't believe we would have such a
good turnout."

Although supplies are expensive.
Tichenor said. "I‘d be surprised if
we spentSSOO."

Jeff Compton. of Mayor Baesler‘s
Environmental Committee. acted as
a liason to bring the project and the
government together.

“There's a wealth of labor at the
University." said Compton. a Sigma
Nu alumni. Kenton Street was cho-

Hamner said he will function as a
liaison between the center and the
‘cntertainment colony in Holly-
wood ”

Hamner has distinguished himself
as a novelist with such works as
Spencer's Mountain and The Home-
coming He also is a noted television
and screen writer Two of his major
movie adaptations include ER
White's "Charlotte‘s Web" and Vera
and William (‘leaver's “Where the
Lilies Bloom "

Hamner also is responsible for
creating and co-producing the tele-
vision series: "Falcon Crest" and
”Boone.“

However. the award—winning se
ries "The Waltons" is possibly Ham»
ner's most celebrated work

“The Waltons" is an autobiogra

sen because many houses there need
it.he said

Another criteria that had to be
met was that all the houses be
owner occupied

"We chose the neighborhood and
asked them what they needed done.
and we sent letters confirming the
date. Schmitt said. "They were all
very receptive to the idea “

Elizabeth Embry. one of the recip-
ients of the project. said she has
lived at 435 Kenton St. for about 10
years

“I think it's nice. It's improved
the streets and everything." she
said.

'l‘ichenor said. “They love it. One
woman said “Praise the Lord?
Praise the Lord! Thank you all for
coming. We really appreciateit ‘ "

The Porter Paint Company and
Town and Ranch Paint supplied the
paint for the project. and LexTRAN
him brought the greek members to
and from the bottom.

to their environment — an environ-
ment rich in story-telling tradition

“We as Appalachian people have a
unique approach to life." he said
"The \alues practiced in families
are almost pioneer in nature "

Hamner said it is necessary to de
velop area writers. painters. musi-
cians and craftsmen to portray the
real Appalachian culture "i think
the message we're getting through
is probably a false one of the old-
lashioned Appalachian person. a
