Fetzer receives
teaching award

Dr. James H. Fetzer, philosophy department,
assistant professor, was awarded the first Student
Government lSGl Distinguished Teaching Award
Tuesday.

”The award recognizes activities in the
classroom so that when a professor comes up for
tenure. teaching, as well as research and
publications will be considered," said Steve Taylor,
SG senator-at-large and chairman of the awards
selection committee.

FETZER WILL receive a plaque and $100. Three
assistant professors awarded honorable mentions
were: Dr. Peter K . Upper, history, Dr. Peter
Purdue. statistics, and Dr. William Sartoris,
Business and Economics.

"Through programs such as this (Distinguished
Teaching Award) Courselector. and publication of
student evaluations of faculty, the University can
become a stronger center of learning,“ said Fetzer,
who teaches philosophy and logic.

“The committee considered only assistant
professors for the award because they usually stay
at UK permanently and it could help good teachers
get tenure,“ said David Mucci, SG president-elect.

UK administrators assist in. Newtown Extension plans

(Editor‘s note: This is the second of a
series of articles dealing with the proposed
Newtown Pike Extension and its effect on
the community.)

By NANCY DALY

Kernel Staff Writer

University administrators are aware of
the possible construction of Newtown Pike
Extension and are assisting in the plan-
ning and road design, despite opposition
from campus student leaders.

“We have agreed to cooperate with the
Highway Department on the Newtown
Extension," said Lawrence E. Forgy, vice
president for business affairs.

NEWTOWN EXTENSION, which Forgy
considers “a fairly important arterial,"
would connect Newtown Pike at Main
Street and Euclid Avenue at Rose Street.

David Mucci, Student Government
president-elect, opposed Newtown Ex-

tension in his recent election campaign.
“If there was any one major campaign
issue it w as the environmental issue," said
Mucci. “First there was the Red River
Dam, then the Newtown Extension."

“EVERYONE WE talked to was ap-
palled at the idea of a highway running
through campus,“ he added.

Marx Anderson, an assistant engineer
for pre-construction at Kentucky Bureau
of Highways District Seven, said the
general road design is established but
many details have yet to be arranged with
the University.

Plans for the stretch between Rose and
Upper Streets provide for five lanes,
Anderson said, including a continuous turn
lane in the middle.

AFTER CONSTRUCTION, the Avenue
of Champions would be quite similar to
Winchester Pike with a 35-mph speed

limit, he added.

Anderson said road widening would
occur on the stadium side at the east end
and on the side of Jewell Hall near
Limestone.

A pedestrian bridge from Blazer Hall to
Buell Armory is under consideration, but
Forgy doubts such an overpass will be
built.

“IT WOULD be an eyesore to the
campus,” he said, and ”it’s entirely too big
an operation."

A pedestrian island would most likely be
installed in the middle of Euclid, said
Forgy, with a traffic light at Harrison
Avenue.

Harrison Avenue might be closed off to
vehicular traffic if a pedestrian bridge is
constructed, Marx said.

"WE ARE definitely opposed to the road
as it is now outlined," Mucci said, and “we

have no promise of a pedestrian over-
pass."

Mucci said he and Vice President-elect
Mike Wilson will try to persuade urban
council representatives Joe Jasper and
Pam Miller to join opposition to the road.

“We want to make sure we get the best
possible arrangement for students if the
road ultimately goes through," he said.

“PRIMARILY WE view the problem as
one that will not be solved by building a
highway,” Mucci said. “Generally high-
ways do not tend to lessen traffic, but to
generate more traffic."

Mucci and Forgy both said they would
participate in the Newtown Extension
public hearing to be held in July or August.

Mucci and Wilson will also participate in
a non-official preliminary hearing to be
sponsored by the Assembly for Political
Action the week of May 20.

0 WASHINGTON -— President Nixon
called on business leaders Tuesday night
to use restraint in future price increases,
warning that continued high inflation
would bring back demands for wage and
price controls.

Speaking to a group of 3,200 business
leaders and their wives attending a
banquet at the 62nd annual convention of
the Chamber of Commerce of the United
States, Nixon also revealed he will an-
nounce new measures next week to help
the housing industry, which has been in a
slump.

. ROCHESTER, Minn. Agnes
Moorehead, an outstanding and highly
versatile character actress of stage and
screen for half a century, died Tuesday at
the age of 67. Cause of her death was not
revealed.

The actress had been a patient at the
Mayo Clinic here periodically over the
past two years. She died in Methodist
Hospital, an affiliate of the clinic.

Miss Moorehead was born Dec. 6, 1906,
in Clinton, Mass.

0 WASHINGTON — About 4.2 million
workers are due for immediate raises of
up to $16 a week under the new minimum
wage law taking effect today, but it could
be several weeks before the money begins
showing up in paychecks.

The new law has caused confusion over
its coverage, and Labor Department of-
ficials said Tuesday they are behind
schedule in mailing employers the
required papers explaining the changes.

0 GENEVA. Switzerland —The head of
the World Health Organization predicted
Tuesday that smallpox, mankind’s most-
dread kfller disease, will be eradicated
next year.

Director General Halfdan Mahler thus
confirmed optimistic progress reports
from a worldwide campaign launched in
1967 against the disease that killed more
people in the past3,000 years thanall wars,
according to health historians.

O FRANKI-‘ORT - Five Kentucky car
dealers agreed Tuesday to refund to
buyers the amount they were overcharged
for the state usage tax.

Filing consent orders to that effect were
Lexington Dodge, Blue Grass Lincoln-
Mercury and Paul Miller Ford, all of
Lexington; Alko Motors, Newport, and
Bob Preston Ford-Mercury, La Grange.
The orders resulted from suits filed in
Franklin Circuit Court by the Consumer
Protection Division of the State Attorney
General’s office.

0 LEXINGTON —, Dr. David Heydinger,
president of Appalachian Regional

A spokesman for the hospital chain said
the offer was made toward the end of the
first negotiating session to be held since
April 12.

ls tide turning?

Many suppositions have already been drawn from
the outcome of the John Mitchell-Maurice Stans
conspiracy case. Each side in the impeachment
question has voiced its views concerning the trial, its
affect on impeachment and on the integrity of
Richard Nixon’s chief accuser, John Dean.

Nixon supporters say the decision bodes well for
Nixon, that indeed the judicialsystem is working, and
that Dean‘s testimony is at best suspect once it is

presented to a jury.

Those favoring Nixon‘s impeachment point out that
Dean’s testimony in possible impeachment-related
hearings shouldn’t be pre-judged because another

trial jury didn’t accept it.

But make no mistake about it. Dean’s apparent
failure to present evidence that would convict Mit-
chell and Stans will have an effect on Watergate-

related hearings.

Just as Nixon saw his record popularity dwindle
when Watergate information saw the light of public
scrutiny, so it would seem that itwill rise at least a bit
after two of his closest associates were acquitted of
charges stemming from a $200,000 campaign con-

tribution.

It was no accident that Nixon waited until after the
verdictwas handed down before addressing the latest
House Judiciary Committee subpoena. Nixon felt the
verdict had to be a favorable omen, and might give
him enough popular support to push his “com-
promise" plan down the Committee’s throats.

Without a doubt, the Nixon Administration will
refer constantly to the Mitchell-Stans decision when it
is challenged by the Committee for more evidence.
This can only bode ill for the American people, who
are already saddled with a Congress that would like
nothing better than to avoid the impeachment

question altogether.

Ghost of dead chickens come home

NEW YORK —— The ghosts of
$10 million worth of dead
chickens came home to stink up
the Senate on Tuesday. That was
when the august body voted 56 to
31 to pay such a sum to five
Mississippi corporate chicken
farmers.

In his 33 years in the Senate,
this is thought to be the first piece
of legislation sponsored by James
0. Eastland to cause any com-
ment—and all of it is negative.
The reason is that the bill will
indemnify the companies for
having to slaughter off 22 million
chicks because they were
nourished on feed believed to be
contaminated by a cancer-
producing chemical.

OTHER FIRMS in this
situation do not look to the
government. They would sue the
feed manufacturers for
negligence. But, possibly, these
corporate farmers lack the
confidence in the court system
that members of the Senate
sometimes reprove the rest of us
for not sharing with them.

In this case. however. those of

little faith are to be rewarded not
with chicken feed but with mega-
bucks by the chairman of the
Senate Judiciary Committee.

Rushed through in five weeks
without a hearing—by a Senate
which can always move fast on
the big ones like TV football
blackouts—the bill has a par-
ticularly rancid odor about it.
There are rumors that the Office
of Management and Budget in the
White House, although
theoretically committed to op-
posing such Treasury raids, is
backing this one—because they’ll
need Eastland's vote when
President Nixon runs out the
string on his yo-yo and has to face
trial.

WITH THIS Admmistration’s
record of generally illicit hoot~
chie-kootchie, this is a nothing,
but why did the big liberals buy
the bill? Minnesota‘s Mondale,
California‘s Cranston and
Tunney, Humphrey and Jackson;
the major moralizers all voted
for it.

They did not explain their
reasons on the floor. nor did they

Letters to the Kernel

Acted in unethical manner

As a University student, I was
extremely disappointed with the
Kernel's Letters to the Editor
policy around the time of the
Student Government elections,
April 9 and 10. I feel that the
Kernel acted in very much an
unethical manner.

Let me state that first of all I
did not vote in the recent elec-
tions for two reasons. First, I feel
I did not personally have enough
time to review each of the can-
didates’ platforms, and second I
will not be attending the
University of Kentucky next fall
and I did notwish to be subject to
any pressure to vote for any
certain candidate.

Your proportion of letters to the
editor was not exactly ethical
journalism. The ratio came out to
be about 11 to one. Also included
was a half page Viewpoint ar-

issue statements, so we are left to
assume 'they did it for some
lamely arcane political reason.

Maybe they thought they were
storing up credit with this moon-
faced old Mississippian, but a
reactionary like Eastland never
will return the favor. Can’t you
see his type votinWr socialized
medicine, “since you were good
enough to hand out the chicken-
feed money to my friends, Sen.
Bayh?"

EVEN CHINTZY, little
political conspirations of that sort
would be preferable to voting for
the measure out of indifference,
or incomprehension, or a need to
be thought of as a regular guy. If
you stick out for too many
principles in the Senate, you run
the risk of being considered a
screwball, which means you
must take your sauna baths in
isolation from your colleagues in
the tax-supported health club in
the basement.

For some not yet explained
reasons. conservatives are

ticle. The letters fell under the
title of “Readers Endorse
Political Candidates“. Was the
“s" in candidates really
necessary?

I realize that the Kernel en-
dorsed Mucci-Wilson, but did you
know there were other can-
didates, also? Newspaper en-
dorsement of political candidates
can affect the outcome of some
elections. maybe it did here ——
maybe it did not. Let me remind
you that I did not vote and the
election did not really concern
me that much. I do feel, however,
thatthe Kentucky Kernel acted in
a very poor manner.

(Editor’s note: Although we too
were sorry to see the ratio of
letters run so high in favor of one
ticket we had nothing to do with

allowed 35 per cent more prin-
ciples before they, too, are ad-
judged eccentric. Thus, Tower
of Texas, Hruska of Nebraska,
Buckley of New York and Scott of
Virginia voted no without having
to take ablution to Coventry. Also
voting no was Wisconsin’s liberal
Proxmire, who will not throw
away a vote for the privilege of
being allowed to join three
Pleistocene Senators at handball.

It would be better to sell your
vote for a bribe than to give it
away for a handshake; but where
was the Democratic leadership to
tell that to the major moralists, to
say that the price was too low
and they should vote no? It was
lost and meandering.

THE WHIP. West Virginia’s
Robert Byrd, went along with
Eastland and the liberals. The
majority leader, that loveable,
old political sissy, Mike Man-
sfield, cast a no vote without
being able to influence others to
do likewise. We shouldn‘t be
surprised. Leadership in the
Senate and outside of it isn’t a
quality, but a position a person is

Appreciation

On behalf of the faculty I would
like to express our appreciation
to all who participated in the
process leading to the election of
the outstanding teacher for 73-74.
Through programs such as this—
as well as by means of wider
utilization of the Courselector
and publication of student

evaluations of faculty—we can

work together to make UK an
even stronger center of learning.

elected to.

Once a rare and splendidly
abnormal attribute, leadership
has been transformed into a
semi-bureaucratized position to
which attaches three extra
secretaries, a limousine and a
teakwood water carafe for the
desk.

The world is too buy to watch
each chicken-feed vote, but one
by one they lessen the tone of the
place. In time you find the public-
opinion polls showing, as they do
now, that Congress enjoys even
less popularity and respect than
President Nixon or the Texas
Rangers baseball club.

THAT WILL not inhibit the
members of the Senate from
shouldering their sacks of
chicken feed to go forth and
scatter lamentations about the
low estate in which they are held.
When next they do, we should
listen quietly and then gently
cluck.

Wolves:

By Lewis Regente

THE NEW YORK TIMES NEWS SERVICE
I

WASHINGTON—For countless cen~
turies, the lonely, piercing howl of the
wolf has echoed through the wilder-
ness, frightening men and creating
blood-chilling legends. But these eerie
howls may soon be heard no more,
for America’s wolves are now facing
what may be their final fight for
survival.

Wolves are among nature’s most
maligned and least understood crea-
tures; and man's fear of these fascinat-
ing animals has always been based
on myth, not fact. Fairy tales such
as “Little Red Riding Hood" notwith-
standing, there is not a single docu-
mented case of a nonrabid wolf in the
wild ever attacking a human in North
America. Despite the centuries of per-
secution, wolves are not hostile to
man, and seem to bear us no grudge.

Wolves are not only extremely in-
teresting and intelligent animals, they
are also vital in maintaining the deli-
cate balance of nature. Such poten-
tially harmful animals as rodents and
rabbits are an integral part of some
wolves’ diet; but the wolf's most im-
portant role is helping l{eep herds of
hoofed animals—deer, elk, moose, cari-
bou—at desirable population levels.

By preying mainly on, and culling
out. the sick and the lame, the very
young and old, the unwary and less
intelligent and other biologically in-
ferior animals, wolxes eliminate excess
members of the herd, thereby helping
prevent overpopulation and starvation.

Moreover, wolves are highly evolved
animals with a disciplined and well-
organized social structure; and scien—
tists who have studied woli' behavior
have been amazed by their human-like
qualities, for the degree of affection
they show for one another.

The birth of pups is an exciting
social event for the pack, with the
proud mother often “showing off" her
young by picking them up and carry-
ing them about. According to a wolf
expert, Gordon Haber, who has studied
and observed wolf packs in Alaska
for almost ten years, the mother wolf
will even “leave the pups with a baby-
sitter and light-heartedly trot off with
the other adults for a fling on the
nightly hunt."

Yet, probably no animal has been
so universally hated and persecuted
so intensely for so long a period of

 

time, and with less justification, as
the wolf,

Bounties on wolves have been in
existence for at least 27 centuries and
were used by the early Greeks and
Romans. One of the first actions taken
by the American colonists settling in
New England was to institute a bounty
system, which was later adopted
throughout the United States.

Finished off by an intense wildlife-
poisoning—or "predator-control”—pro-
gram carried out by the United States
Government, the wolf has n0w been

John H. Gerard/Monkmeyer

eliminated from over 99 per cent of
its former range in 48 states. Less
than 100 gray, or timber, wolves re-
main in the entire United States out-
side of Alaska and Minnesota.

The red wolf, poisoned to the verge
of extinction by the Department of
Interior, is now hanging by a thread,
with 300 surviving only in Texas and
Louisiana. And in Alaska, the few
thousand surviving wolves are sub-
jected to such heavy pressure from
hunters, trappers and the fur industry
that few packs remain that have not

VIeWpolrtt

 

endangered

been decimated and severely disrupted.

Minnesota has several hundred east—
ern timber wolves, the last viable
population of these animals remaining
in 48 of the states. But these wolves
are seriously threatened by “sport”
hunters, trappers, livestock ranchers,
and state and Federal “wildlife man-
agers," who believe that all wildlife
should be periodically killed (they call
it “harvesting”) on a “sustained-yield"
basis.

Throughout most of Minnesota,
wolves may be killed year-round and
without limit; and one trapper alone
reportedly “kills” some sixty wolves
every year.

Despite a formal request for a gen-
eral moratorium on wolf killing by the
Department of the Interior, which has
placed the eastern timber wolf on its
endangered-species list, Minnesota has
attempted to legitimize and perpetuate
this slaughter by drafting a “manage-
ment” plan for the wolf.

While raising the wolf’s legal status
to that of a game animal and provid-
ing it with some increased protection,
the plan would allow and encourage
the annual killing for sport and “pred-
ator control" of 150 to 200 wolves.
Even if this does not bring about the
extinction of this endangered species,
the plan, if adopted as now written,
could destroy those characteristics
that make wolves unique and fascinat—
ing. Their complex social organization
would be broken down, their terri-
torial system disrupted, and the evolu-
tion of the species adversely affected
in ways impossible to foresee.

But under the new endangered-
species legislation that has just been
enacted by Congress and signed by
President Nixon, these wolves could
quickly be placed under Federal juris-
diction by the Interior Department
and given the protection they so des-
perately need,

Time has almost run out on the
wolf. Unless man quickly learns to
value and not destroy this priceless
heritage that he is just beginning to
understand, the day will not be far off
when the last wolf, howling in loneli-
ness, will lift its voice in the night,
only to be answered by silence.

Letters to the Kernel

Blues, Mayall, Chicago and Three Dog Night

have restrained myself
numerous times from writing in
rebuttal to something I have read
in the Kernel, but after reading
the letter by J. Brian Lihani, I felt
it was my duty to raise him up
from the depths of his obvious
musical ignorance.

Imagine a man who would
mention the name of John Mayall
in the same breath as Chicago or
Three Dog Night! Utter
blasphemy! As even the most
casual blues fan knows, John
Mayall has been the dominant
influence on the British blues
scene for the past 10 years, and to
true blues fans much longer. His
dynamic blues bands have
spawned such immortals as Jeff
Beck, Eric Clapton and Jimmy
Page, to name a few.

Mayall has long been
recognized as a musician’s
musician and the great rock
performers of our time are
overwhelmed by an invitation to
sit in with him. As to the
statement about Mayall not
having a single hit in the United

States, one must realize that
Mayall does not package his
works for mass consumption,
instead he plays for the people
who have supported him from
the beginning, the hard-core
blues fans.

Mister Lihani must live a
hermit's existence to refer to
John Mayall as an “unknown
performer”. Unknown perhaps
because he doesn't prostitute his
talents for the sake of money and
so called stardom. I feel that if a
person is going to write
something for the Kernel, he
must limit his subject matter to
areas in which he possesses some
semblance of knowledge.

Bob Sturdivant

Intimacy

We are writing in regard to
the letter in Monday‘s Kernel
from a Mr. J. Brian Lihani. In his

letter, Mr. Lihani holds that a
concert must be a sellout in order
to be successful. It is our belief
thata smaller audiance creates a
greater intimacy between the
listener aand the artist making
for a better performance.

Because Mr. Lihani is
dissappointed in this year’s
choice of artists, he wants to
bring “BIG NAMES" such as
Three Dog Night, Chicago, or
Grand Funk to UK. Who are
they? We remember digging such
performers when we were in Jr.
high school. but we feel that the
majority of the students of this
University have passed that
stage of music appreciation and
are a little tired of it now.

If the “BIG NAMES‘fiare to
be discussed let's mention
some. How about Pink Floyd, The
Allman Bros, Humble Pie.
Muddy Waters. Steve,Miller
Band. just to mention a few.
Lihani seems to think that the
coliseum was wasted on John
Mayall. and lables him “an

unknown performer." His
criteria is that Mayall has never
had a hit single or album. The
reason for this is simple. John
Mayall is a professional
musician...not a bubble gum
band! Asa matter of fact, Mayall
has been around much longer
than any of the bands mentioned
in his letter.

In regard to his partially
pessimistic view of the upcoming
Leon Russell concert, all we can
say is. “Don‘t try to lay no boogie
woogie on the king of rock n
roll!“

Praise

I want to take this opportunity
to praise the police force that is
serving on the t'niversity of
Kentucky's campus.

Recently a friend and I had the
misfortune of being approached
by a sexual exhibitionist while we
were walking from the Complex.
We called the police and within a
matter of minutes a police officer
was on the scene to make an
investigation.

Two days later we were asked
to come to the police station to
file a report and look at mug
shots. We were not hassled or
given the third degree. We were
not asked any questions that were
not absolutely necessary. The
officers were very kind and
understanding. 1 would not
hesitate to call the police if this
ever happened again.

The only way to stop crime on
this campus is to report it. The
police can not do anything unless
it is reported. Please help bring
the crime down on this campus.

Nixon releases

WASHINGTON (AP) —
President Nixon’s edited
Watergate transcripts were
issued Tuesday as he sought to
prove his innocence with an
extraordinary journal recounting
his own discussions of payoffs to
shield scandal, his rejection of
clemency, and his concern that
“if we had to let the whole damn
thing hang out" his aides would
be branded criminals.

Nixon’s lawyers said the raw
material of those recorded
private conversations, 1,308
pages bound in blue, established
that he did not know in advance of
the Watergate break-in or of the
cover-up that followed.

The White House delivered the
transcripts to Congress, then
released them publicly, with a
summation that pronounced the
documents to be proof the

full. does the dialogue recounted
in the transcripts add up to a
coherent story of what was said
and done as the Watergate
scandal burst during the spring of

cover-up.

lt recounts a conference bet-
ween Nixon and John W. Dean
til. then his White House counsel.
now his chief accuser. And in it,
Nixon repeatedly expresses
surprise at Dean‘s disclosures of
high-level official involvement in
the Watergate case.
