Friendly competition between
UK residence halls is benefiting
the United WathW). One of the
most recent fund-raisers was a
dance Monday night at the
Complex Commons, sponsored by

Mark Metcalf, Kirwan ll dorm
president, would not disclose the
profit madeon the dance, but said
“substantial

Metcalf made a special appeal
to the bands, “Teasers," and
“Apocrypha,” and they agreed to
play withoutcharge (exept for the
expense of renting a U-Haul for
one band, and a sound man for the
other). “They said it was for a
good wuseand besides, it was
great publicity for them,” Met-
calf said

Admission to the dance was $1 a
person, $1.50 a couple. Over 300
people attended the dance,
raising “more money than any
other dorm fund-ra iser so far, but
I can’t tell the amount because of

our competition against Boyd
Hall,” Metcalf said. “We don‘t
want them to get a jump on us."

Competition between dorms is
stiff, although they are only one of
three University categories,
according to Cathy Heindryckx,
United Way coordinator for
Kirwan residence halls. The other
two groups are the Greek and
student organizations.

“We've asked each dorm to
give a contribution as a group,
either as a fund-raising project,
or out of the dorm's treasury,"

Heindryckx said. So far, fund
raising projects have included
Monday‘s dance, rummage and
bake sales, a haunted house and a
tin can collection by several
dorms.

lleindryckx said that Dr. David
Stockham, chairman of the
United Way fund-raising drive, is
“very pleased, especially with
student response. We’ve done
extremely well, and have made
more money this year than last
year."

Sam Willett, vice-chairman of
UW’s residence hall campaign,
and president of Boyd Hall,
acknowledged competition
between dorms. “It’s done on a
per capita basis,” he said. For
instance, if a dorm of 600 raised
$200, it would not do as well as a
dorm of 100 that raised $150.

Boyd Hall sponsored a dance
for the north campus, as well as a
haunted house on Halloween,
raising 958. “I would rather

spend money on a program, and
then make money on it, instead of
just taking a contribution out of
the dorm treasury,” Willett said.
“Ourhaunted house involved a lot
of energy among dorm members,
and got everyone really en-

competition is “a good thing, even

T elecom students

play game of
network scheduling _

BleM McNAIR
Kernel Reporter

Students in Telecommunications
classes 305 and 510 are learning first-
hand about the harshly competitive
nature of the relationships and
transactions involved in prime time
televis'on scheduling.

In a prodigious production called
“The Game," created by Dr. Joseph
Ripley and assisted by Ralph Long
and John Ketchum, Telecom-
munications Program Analysis
(TEL 305) and Broadcast Ad-
vertising (TEL 510) students are
performing vicariously the
operations of three national
television networks and eight major
advertising agencies.

Instead of relying completely on
lectures to pound new data into
bewildered heads, Ripley gives his
Tel 305 students the opportunity to
work with the computer in devising
prime time TV program schedules
and finding program viewer ratings.
Lucia Miree‘s TEL 510 class gets
similar exposure with advertising’s
television scheme.

“The Game is a conflict
simulation, "said Ripley in
describing his creation. “The
computer has stored in it five years
of data on prime time audiences. It
also has matrices which can com-
pare types of programs and
programs within each type. The
programs themselves were auc-
tioned off to the networksfor them to
make a schedule that would best
gain the maximum audience—which
is what advertisers want.“

Each of the three networks
begins Round 1 of The Game with
$195 million (funny money) to bid
for television shows offered in the
auction. These shows are all prime
time material and the networks

can irsert them antwhere in the
primetime hours of 7:30 pm. toll
pm. from Sunday through
Saturday. 30 minutes of each of
those prime-time periods must be
reserved for local programming
such as a locally-made show or a
rerun.

“When the networks finish making
out their program schedules, they
independently arrange contact with
eight advertising agencies
(represented by the students in
Miree‘s TEL 510 class),” Ripley
continued.

“The agencies have clients such
as GM the largest with a $75 million
budget, or Volvo. A11 (clients) buy
time that offers the most efficient
means of advertising. If a client is
not satisfied with eithera network or
an agency, it can change to another
upon contract expiration. Networks,
in turn, can drop and pick up
clients.”

The agencies serve networks as
their main revenue source. Total
prime-time programming costs
roughly one-half the cost of total
primetime advertising. The initial
$585 million investment and the $615
million it costs the three combined
networks to run prime time
programs during the week is
returned in the $1.2 billion total
advertising bill. About 15 per cent of
the clients’ payments to the net-
works is redirected to the ad-
vertising agencies.

Before The Game was conceived,
the TEL 305 was taught as a straight
lecture course. Presently, lectures
occupy much of the syllabus with
Ripley bracing his pupils for The
Game with the necessary
backgrounding in broadcasting
programs, ratings, audiences,
program appeals, and what kinds of

75% of spaces leased
Unusual shops open

in newly-completed
Civic Center mall

By JENNIFER GREER
Kernel Reporter

The mall at Lexington Center is
open, and for curious shoppers who
aren't intimidated by the sound of
drills and construction workers, 15
com pleted shops provide an exciting
preview of more to come.

The property is now more than 75
per cent leased with 33 tenants,
according to Ken Schaffer, general
manager for real estate and
development of the mall and the
adjacent Hyatt Regency hotel.

“By next May, the mall should be
complete with about 45 tenants,“
Schaffer said.

Ammg those opening shops is the
F.A.0. Schwarz toy company from
Fifth Avenue in New York City.
“The company is a subsidiary of
Franz Carl Weber International of
Zurich, Switzerland, Europe’s
largest toy seller," Schaffer said.

The toy store has no ceiling.
Schaffer said,“They won’t put a roof
on that store because they‘re going
to build a stuffed animal 200 on a
platform that will rise above the
walls."

Soon to open in the mall is a
franchise of San Francisco’s Magic
Pan restaurant. Schaffer said the
eatery, a subsidiary of Quaker Oats,
specializes in French crepes and
enjoys a national reputation.

None of the shops seem typical
and places like The Filling Station,
Strauss Tobacconist and the Ap-
palachian Shop by Match and
Riverboat will add diversity to
shopping in Lexington.

Schaffer explained how the
developers, Hunt Landmark, Ltd,
brought together such a wide
assortment of new and different
shops.

“We realize there was a gap in the

retail market that other stores were
not filling,” he said. “In the past 15
years, a sort of middle calss has
emergedin Lexington with changing
needs and interests."

In an effort to meet these needs,
Schaffer said his company has tried
to upgrade the retail shopping
marker.

“We went to larger cities,
Louisville, Knoxville, Columbus,
Cincinnati and others, to bring in
names and products that would be
new to Lexington," Schaffer said.
“We also encouraged some of the
city’s already established
businesses to locate in the mall plus
a few stores that were new ven-
tures.”

Schaffer pointed out that there are
both expensive and inexpensive
shops in the mall. “We haven't tried
to create a Saks Fifth Avenue at-
mosphere. There is something for
everyone here," he said.

When completed, the mail will
have one restaurant, an old—
fashioned ice cream parlor and
delicatessen, a candy store and
espresso coffee shop.

“In addition, the main cocktail
lounge and specialty restaurant of
the Hyatt Regency Lexington will be
located on the mezzanine level of the
mall," Schaffer said.

Schaffer is currently negotiating
with the Lexington Council of Arts in
an effort to provide “more en-
tertaining" amusements. “We
would like to offer choirs, puppet
shows, modern dance programs and
things of that nature.

“Down through here,“ Schaffer
said, looking past workers and
movers to the first floor, “we are
going to put a Christmas tree that
should stand 28 feet high. Those are
just small touches, 1 know. but they
are what make this mall what it is."

Entry deadlines approaching for four English department literary prizes

l1y('ll.r\S MAIN
Kernel Reporter

Entry deadlines for the English
department‘s writing awards are
drawing near. This year, the
department will give four awards
for various types of writing, in-
cluding a new award worth $500.

Three prizes which have been
given before will be worth $100 each
to the winners. They are the Loring

Vt'illiams Memorial Award, and the
Dantzler-Farquhar Awards.

The Williams competition will
close on January 15, and is open to
graduate and undergraduate
students on the Lexington campus.
The prim in this competition will be
awarded by the English department
for the best poem or group of poems
submitted by a student. Entries
should be submitted to room 1215 in
tlte office tower. It is important that
nams not be included on the

manuscripts themselves. but on an
attatched cover sheet. Entrants
should also attach a self-addressed
envelope if they want their
manuxripts returned. ‘

The two Itantzler-Farquhar
Awards are given for the best en-
tries in the poetry and prose
categories. (‘ompetition is open to
students on all of UK‘s regional
campuses. and both carry stipends

According to James Baker llall.
Director of (‘reative Writing, “The
money for these awards was ntade
available in honor of two former
professors. The fund has been giving
awards for 25 years, according to
James Baker llall, director of
creative writing.

The deadline for the awards is
December 1. Entries should be
submitted in duplicate, and names
may be attached. The winner in the

poetry category will be liK's
nominee to the Bluegrass Poetry
('ircuit.

(lition to these awards, the
department is offering a new one:

ship Program. It is to be given to the
six students on the Lexington
campus who show the greatest
improvement in writing ability.
Students should submit entries
through their department treads.
who will submit their Work with a

description of improvements. The
entries will be considered by a panel
of judgts representing six major
l'niversity departments.

The rintwltistle award will be
given each year in the form of $500
stipends. The award was established
to honor the memory of Entwhistle,
a UK English student. “and to
reinforce her passion for good
writing." according to Department
chairman J. A. BryantThe deadline
for entry is Feb. 1, 1977.

Before cold type production
became popular and economically

crews to speak of; the printers did
all the composition. Printers made
the mats and pressmen ran the

train secretaries and typists to
perform what used to be a highly
skilled job. Of course, they aren't
nearly as much fun at cocktail

could put cigarettes out in the palms

By GEOFFREY H. MOORE

The unemployment rate has be-
come a misleading statistic. As a
former United States Commissioner
of Labor Statistics. it pains me to
say this, and I do not mean to imply
that the figures are in any way
distorted or manipulated. They are
just misleading. Since they are so
widely followed, this is important.

commentary

Recently the unemployment rate
has been about 8' 2 per cent to 9 per
cent. the highest level in a genera-
tion. Most people interpret this to
mean that we are in the midst of the
worst recession since the 19305, and
possibly in a depression that will
rival that of 1929-33.

Forecasts that high unemploy-
ment will continue for some years
are generating demands for all sorts
of remedies. primarily more govern-
ment spending and lower taxes. And
to make it the worst of all possible
worlds. we have a high rate of
inflation and some prospect that it
will go higher. even without addi-
tional fiscal stimulation.

Why is the unemployment rate
misleading? Because at the same

time that it is at a high level, the
percentage of the population em-
ployed is also at a relatively high
level. The employment rate is
known to almost no one, and
consequently is virtually ignored in
evaluations of the employment situ-
ation. The unemployment statistics
prevail.

This is doubly unfortunate be-
cause the employment figures are
not beset with as many conceptual
problems as the unemployment
figures. For example. discouraged
workers who do not seek work are
excluded from unemployment fig-
ures because the definition of “un-
employed" is, not employed and
actively seeking work.

Are teenagers faced with a
situation of nonwork? How then is it
that the percentage of teenagers
with jobs, about 43 per cent in recent
months. is higher than at any time
before 1972. with the exception of a
few months in 1969? Does the record
high unemployment rate for adult
women mean that women are unable
to find jobs? How then is it that the
percentage of women with jobs, also
about 43 per cent in recent months.
is higher than at any previous time,
with the exception of a few months
last year?

 

student) production manager this
fall to add form and function to this
process. Prior to this, the Kernel
student staff had been writing all the
copy and then producing the
mcchanimls for the printers, in
addition to going to classes.

The staff often worked until 4 or 5
am. I was hired so they could get
home at a reasonable hour, and the
first night I worked, we got through
about 6 am. It has gotten better,
though; now we all go home about 1
am.

concern is} TIME. I want to use as
little of it as possible while
producing the best paper. The
situation of always being in a hurry
causes more problems than just
sleepless nights.

At another newspaper, I got in too
much of a hurry. I left a headline
reading: "Kissinger says blacks
cause trouble in S. Africa“ bannered
across an advertisement with a
largepictureof Freddie King. Still, I
was conscientious enough to get the
identical headline in the right place
on the same page. Luckily, we have
never run paragraphs upsidedown.

My job has changed radically in
the past few weeks. Normally, one of
the production manager’s primary
concerns is copy flow from
newsroom to typist to proofreader to
typist to pasteup. But since the

Cold type makes for less cocktail party talk

VDTs have been in operation,
production no longer has to manage
the bulk of the paper's contents.

Now typists set the AP wire news
and some editorial copy. Being able
to have fewer people perform fewer
jobs has meant a time savings of
abwt two hours a night, primarily
by having fewer Ioonies running

As for advertising, the prodrction
staff does everything from deter-
mining type face and size, to
assigning art for ads. Ad production
is more time consuming because it is
more intricate and must be more
precise—a mistake in an ad can cost
a lot of money. It takes four to five
people eight hours to produce one
day of ads for the Kernel.

Basically, the production
manager’s fundamental respon-
sibility is to get the Kernel on the
streets everyday. That meats it is
crucial to get out on time the night
before. because when we run late,
the printer runs late, too—and the
Kernel comes late to you.

avoid misconceptions

The reason for these anomalies is
not difficult to discover. People seek
jobs, and hence are counted as
unemployed, in some instances be-
cause they lose the job they have,
but in other instances because they
want a job they believe they can get.

When employment opportunities
are poor many people lose jobs and
take longer to find work; but when
employment opportunities are good,
more people may decide to look for
work.

The unemployment rate can be
high when either situation prevails.
The employment figures are less
ambiguous. Employment conditions
must be relatively good when a large
percentage of the population is
employed. and vice—versa.

It is for this reason, I believe, that
the employment figures are more
closely associated with the rate of
inflation than the unemployment
figures are. Much is made of the
trade-off between unemployment
and inflation, but statistically it is
difficult to find evidence that high
tmemployment and a low inflation
rate go together. However, the
percentage of the population em—
ployed has been closely associated
with the rate of inflation.

And the fact that in this “worst
postwar recession" the employment
percentage has not fallen to the
levels reached in most of the
previous postwar recessions, mild
though they were, probably has
something to do with the fact that
the inflation rate has not fallen to
those levels either.

Aggregate wages and salaries at
the bottom of this recession were
nearly 9 per cent higher than they
were when the recession began. and
spending on consumer goods was 14
per cent higher. This is not the
picture of a “Great Depression" or
anything like it.

The moral is not that we should
abandon the unemployment statis-
tics. They are invaluable. But they
are not sufficient unto themselves.
The employment figures should get
just as much attention, especially in
evaluating the need for new public
policies to provide jobs. or assessing
the effectiveness of existing policies.

Carter pledges 1.5%

lower unemployment

WASHINGTON [AP]-
President-elect Jimmy
Carter said Tuesday it is his
goal to reduce unemployment
by 1.5 per cent “and perhaps
more" in h's administration’s
first year.

He said he also set a goal of
boosting the nation's rate of
econcmic growth to six per
cent in the first year of the
Carter administration.

Carter tcld a news con-
ference at the Capitol that
Chairman Arthur Burns of
the Federal Reserve Board
told him ata meeting Monday
that both goals strike him as
“reasmable.”

The jobless rate now stands
at 7.9 per cent and the growth
rate in the fall quarter wa53.8
per cent just below the level
considered necessary to
whittle down unemployment.

Carter pledged to take
effective steps to rebuild a
spirit of co-operation and
good feeling between the
White House and Congress.

He said jobs will be a major
focus of the first months of his
administration and that he
expects before his Jan. 20
inauguaration to have worked
out with the Congress the

outline of major unem-
ployment reduction
legislation.

In general, Democrats said
they were pleased with
Carter’s attitude.
Republicans said they were
ready to be partners and
would support Carter when
they think he is right and
oppose him when they think
he is wrong.

Carter made his comments
at the half-way point in a fast-
paced day of conferences
with the Democratic and
Republican leaders of
Congress. On Monday he had
met with President Ford and
top dficials of the Ford ad-
ministration.

Meanwhile, at the White
House, President Ford
worked on the federal budget
for the fiscal year 1978. The
budget must be submitted to
Congress in January.

During his Washington visit
Tuesday, Carter:

—Promised to consult
closely with the appropriate
members of Congress on all
major legislation.

—Promised the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
to consult in advance on

threatens Hearst

SAN FRANCISCO [APl—A
telephone caller threatened to
set off a bomb in the Mark
Hopkins llotel while con-
victed bank robber Patricia
Hearst was in the Top of the
Mark bar, a hotel official said
Tuesday.

The anonymous caller, a
man, was quoted as saying
“We are the SLA” in an ac-

count of the incident in the

major: foreign policy
initiatives when they reach
the stage of negotiation.

—Dramatized that pledge
by giving eachmember of the
committee his private
telephone number in Plains,
Ga., and promising to come to
the phone when they call.

—Announced he is looking
for a secretary of agriculture
with on-thefarm experience
who comes from the Midwest,
the nation‘s largest
agricultural area.

Carter said that while his
process of picking his Cabinet
will be slower than in past
new administrations, he
hopes to send “informal”
nominations to the Congress
before his inauguration to
give the Senate a head start in
the confirmation process.

ln obtaining Hearst‘s
release from prison on bail
last Friday, her attorneys
arguedthatshe was in danger
because of her testimony
about Symbionese Liberation
Army activities during her
time as a fugitive in the
company of SLA members.

“Threats have been
received,” said Sandor
Stangl, general manager of
the hotel, across the street
from the Nob Hill apartment
where Hearst is living with
her family.

The FBI said it knew
nothing about the threats but
was looking into the matter.

Hearst and her attorney, Al
Johnson, were escorted out
of the hotel by security
guards Monday night after
the anonymous caller told a

switchboard operator: “You
better get Patty Hearst out of
the building. You have five

minutes."

No bomb was found, police

said.

Hearst, free on a total of
$1.25 million bail pending an
appeal of her bank robbery
conviction, had walked to the
hotel with Johnson and
