By TOM BO WD EN

Kernel Staff Writer
Buck Pennington was elected speaker of the Student Government
(SG) Assembly Thursday night in the first meeting since the spring
elections.
Pennington, who won by a 2 margin over the only other
nominee, Lynn Montgomery, commented: "Unity is a good thing
to have, but qualified leadership is better."
Patt Maney, who contested Pennington's declaration as a candidate for speaker during the spring elections, was not elected as a
representative and hence did not oppose Pennington for the position.
The assembly acted favorably on a proposal to appropriate $100
to the Free University on campus "for the printing of course cata14-1-

logues."

Salary Increased
In addition, the assembly voted to increase the salary of the SG
president by an additional $250 "in compensation for work done

during the summer."
Student Government president Steve Bright explained to the
representatives that he will be working for Student Government
'
a minimum of two months during this summer.
A bill entitled "A Place to Lay Your Head," which provides
that Student Government, "through a committee appointed by the
speaker, work with the Dean of Students' office, the housing office
a comprehensive list
and any other group necessary to compile
of locations, prices and conditions of
housing facilities."
The bill also specified that the list be available to students at

...

any time.
The assembly passed a resolution which indicates its support for
"Earth Day," a nationwide observance of the ecological situation.
The assembly noted that "the environmental crisis is of extreme
importance to UK students and all of mankind."
Other Action

In other action, the assembly:
Voted to support the Student Mobilization Committee's attempts "to focus student awareness on the war in Vietnam"
and to urge as many students
during the week of April
as possible to participate.
Issued a directive to investigate the possibility of constructing
speed humps on the Complex Drive in order to reduce "a threat
to the safety of Complex students wanting access to the tennis
and basketball courts" present in fast traffic.
Issued a directive that the SG finance committee begin the
investigation of various aspects of the University budget with an
emphasis on "an examination of the fiscal allocative function of
Student Governments at other institutions
Issued a directive "that the Student Services and Student
Housing Committees study the possibility of having a hall speaker
system installed in Donovan Hall."
Referred to committee a bill which would appropriate $1,000
for support of "the much needed used book store."
Referred to the Student Services Committee a resolution requesting that Dean of Residence Halls Planning, Rosemary Pond,
tender her resignation because she "refuses to take positive action
to improve dorm conditions, maintenance and personnel qualifications."
Tabled a resolution to urge the management of the Margaret
I. King Library to lengthen library hours beginning Sunday, April
19, and ending Friday, May 8, to 2 a.m. each night.

Newspaper Theft, Printers Create
Problems For Blue-TaFly Staff

By J. PATRICK MATHES
Assistant Managing Editor
Guy Mendes, the primary organizer of the
Blue-TaFly, has described the theft of $40 to
$50 worth of the newspapers as "a political theft."
Mendes explained that the papers and approximately $10 in cash were taken from a metal
rack in the Student Center (SC) sometime after
it closed Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
"You can't chain the rack to the rail (in the
SC)" according to Mendes, so the new rack has
been chained to the dispenser belonging to the

"They can't sell the papers because we could

orientation.

A sociologist recently commented on the national trend of
increasing the number of juvenile institutions while ignoring

juvenile delinquents just outside
Lexington, uses an extensive
group therapy program combined with programs of education, recreation, vocational training and religion.
But Loren Richter, assistant
superintendent for treatment,

believes that by the time many
of the children get to KV, it
may be too late.
We need to start helping kids
with problems in the first and
second grades and not wait until
junior high," Richter stated.
"We have the knowledge to
spot a problem child sooner, but
for some reason we do not have
a commitment."

Health A Problem
The assistant superintendent
noted that often a child may
have an inadequate diet which
can lead to basic health problems, such as poor eyesight. This
can hinder the child in school,
he observed.
"Most of the kids are school
push-outs,- "
said Richter. "Other
children won't have anything to
do with them, so they become
outcasts."
He went on to say, "Soon an
isolated youth finds other out

casts for his peers and they
group together."
This usually leads to trouble.
After a child is arrested, often
for crimes only illegal for children, his sentence is the result
of the decision of a judge who
has the option of holding the
case over to the grand jury.
Of the youths brought before
juvenile courts,, approximately
10 percent were committed to
juvenile institutions or the grand
jury.

The story of Doug Breeding's
singing caret-- sounds like it was
taken out of a book.
Breeding, a UK senior who
nine months ago was unhappy
over his career as a singer,
stopped off at the Terrace Room
one night. He had been singing
at the Pub, but tilings were not
going too well for him there.
While at the Terrace Room,
Breeding was called up on stage
to sing. He sang "Folsom Prison
Blues," and the crowd response
was so good that he was hired
to sing there permanently. And
ever since, things have been getting better and better.
Breeding has been performing
at the Terrace Room for eight
months now. His popularity has
risen so that he's been asked to
sing in numerous other night
spots in Lexington, but he's refused them all.
He expects to cut his first
record this summer. But, probably his best acclaim so far has
selection to reprebeen two-tim- e
sent Kentucky nationally.
Teaming with Preston Weber,
a long-tim- e
performer at the Terrace Room, Breeding has been
chosen to represent Kentucky by
performing for a national conference in Washington, D.C. this
summer.
Working at the Terrace Room,
besides aiding his singing career, has enabled Breeding to
further his education.
He has had to work in order

Hie Population Bomb. Ehrlich
has appeared on television several times to discuss his theories
on the future of the world if the

If he doesn't sound convincing
in person, just read his book
and then try to forget about it.
Dr. Ehrlich calls himself a
population biologist. He feels
that the main reason the world
is having such problems as starvation, slums and pollution can be
traced to "too many people."
However, Ehrlich is enlightened
enough to see that overpopulation is not the answer to all the
ills of mankind. He makes it most
apparent that population control
is the most immediate concern
of the war to save mankind. Then,
he feels that effective controls
on other world problems can be

Why?

It might be a different story if there were some tangible evidence
of progress, if we declared war on somebody, if there were some kind
of sane reasoning behind the whole thing.
Some used to say that the peaceniks were few and far between, far
from constituting a majority of the people of this country. Some doubt
exists now. The state of Massachusetts recognized the absurdity of this
youthful suicide by passing a law to forbid any citizen from fighting in
an undeclared war.
The law will be declared unconstitutional if it ever goes as far as
the Supreme Court, but not without making the usually liberal high court
look extremely inconsistent in the process.
The point of this is, however, thatagroup of citizens not necessarily

Knocks ACLU
The recent activities of the American
Civil Liberties Union in defending the
notorious Cliicago 7 and the Black Panthers in New York add to the growing
list of questionable causes championed
by this organization:
The ACLU has fought postal control
of pornography as "censorship."
The ACLU has sought to cancel the
Conn ally Amendment, to coddle Reds
in labor unions, churches, and government agencies.
The ACLU has sought to abolish the
House Committee on Internal Security,
and to discredit J. Edgar Hoover and

the F.B.I.
The ACLU opposes the pledge of
allegiance in classrooms, and chaplains
in the armed services.
The ACLU protested the flying of
pennants bearing the inscription, "One
Nation Under Cod," on municipal flagpoles.

The ACLU even objects to the saying
of grace in nursery schools before
cookies and null!
Perhaps the ACLU should replace the
word "civil" with "criminal." It's liigh
time this nefarious organization were exposed for what it really is: a group of
and political
meddlers,
leeches actively working for the destruction of this country.

Richter Suggests Changes

child's prohlems usually stems
from a hroken home, approximately 00 percent of the 573
children that KV placed hack into the community last year went
hack to their oiipnal homes or
relative's homes.

unsatisfactory home situation, he

Foster Homes 'Unlimited'

Although there is an unlimited number of foster homes
willing to take children in Kentucky, the Department of Child
Welfare simply does not have
the money to pay for them.
The regular rate the department pays a foster home for one
child is $2.30 a day.
Assistant Superintendent Hich-te- r
believes that the only way
to improve the present situation
is through "massive community
involvement.'
"Unfortunately, the public
really doesn't believe criminal
Inhavior can be changed, sort of
like with the mentally ill several years ago," said Richter.
The state commission report
of juvenile delinquency seemed
to agree with Richter's conclusions, noting, "Delinquency must
be solved in the communities,
not in the institutions."
The report listed several recommendations as possible solutions to juvenile delinquency:
A greatly expanded juvenile counselor program, and,
where needed, group foster
homes or half-wa- y
houses;
Work
opportunities for
youth;
Early identification of children with problems;
and
Day Care Centers
Head Start greatly expanded;
