Log cabin renovated )

for 1976 bicentennial

By (‘I.i-\l'l)l;\ HULLINHSWURTII
Kernel Staff Writer

The heavy wooden door opens to a small
oneroom cabin and a sense of the past
emerges. Musty dampness, rotting logs
and a stone fireplace where a powder
musket probably dangled all reflect the
age of the building

Soon this Ztitiycarold cabin will have
a new look The old Patterson Cabin.
located near 3rd and Broadway Streets on
the 'l‘ransylvama (‘ollege campus. is being
n-noyated tor the 15976 bicentennial cele
bration.

'l‘lllil (' \ltIV was originally built in 1776
by (‘olonel Robert Patterson. a ltevolu~
tionary War soldier and one of Lexington‘s
founders Around 'l‘ransyly'ania's campus
the cabin is known as the only “mobile
home cabin" because it has been relocated
so many times

in 1904 the cabin was taken to Dayton.
tiliio by John Patterson. Robert Patter
son's grandson. to keep it in the family it

The cabin sat unattended, on concrete
blocks at 'l‘ransylvania’s campus for 39
years. Then a new science building was
planned for its location and the cabin was
moved to a dark section of campus.

AT THIS site. the cabin was plagued by
vandalism. People took stones from its
chimney. Now the Patterson (,‘abin has
been moved again for its renovation and
the bicentennial celebration.

Ed Hoalihan. Transylvania vice
president for external affairs. said. “So
many institutions are going the same old
mute of plays and exhibits for the
celebration We thought we'd do some»
thing constructive."

The renovation of the cabin consists
mainly of replacing old logs with new ones.
which must be hand cut to fit in place. The
entire building will then be sprayed with
Hydro-Zol. a silicone-based material used
to preserve wood by the National Park
Service.

.\ NEW stone-based foundation is being
dug for the cabin and an electrical fire

was returned to Lexmgton in 1930

Student Center Board due for some change

The Student (‘enter Board tS(‘Bt.
through a change in member's atti-
tudes as well as in the students they
serve. has received much criticism in
the past year for programming that
many students feel is not representa-
tive of the campus‘ wants and needs.
The times are changing at schools as
large as UK. Here, people are divided
into many splinter groups. While one
group wants a jazz concert, another
wants a good film or play, while a
third believes in a major concert four
four of five times a semester.

This splitting up of the student
community creates probelms for
schools this large. The SCB is hard
put to find one or two major acts that
are everybody"s ideal as to whatis
good Tins is compounded by the fact
that the SCB is handicapped with a
limited schedule for open dates in the
Coliseum because of athletics and a
limited budget because of the propor-
tion of funds put into other programs

As a result. the St‘B is currently
having to revamp their ideals and
rightly so. The trend for the furttire
will have to move toward programnr
ing smaller acts in greater numbers
at more frequent intervals

Already progress has been made
in this respect by the establishment of
the Mini-Concert series. “Six for Six"
and the coffeehouse program.

While these programs are com—
inendable. they need to have a few of
the “bugs” worked out of them.
Mini—Concerts need to be better
advertised and not bunched together
at the end of the semester as they
were this time around The same goes
for the “Six for Six" program. winch
also needs to be a year long program
instead of just a sciiiesterly one

in addition to these programs. there
are other ideas that are currently
under consideration or should be:

A plan to use only iialt tiie
Memorial (‘oliseum for concerts This
idea would provide l‘i\' with a

accused Allbright of "turning history on its
head" when Allhright cited certain aspects
of American relations with nations of the
Middle East An effort to rebut Goldman‘s
argument was published on April 18. The
author. Issa Ackall. charged Goldman
with distorting the events of the Arab-Is»
raeli conflict and Ackall sought to set
"history right side up.“ It would appear
that history has been doing handsprings in
the pages of the Kernel.

In this. and in subsequent articles. an
effort will be made to examine the history
of the major issues of the Arab-Israeli
War. Since this examination is based upon
well-documented evidence. it is hoped that
the analysis will be received as "history
without acrobatics " The matrix of this
historical analysis will be three proposi-
tions implicit in the argument of Bruce
Allbright‘s article These propositions are
as follows:

The [CS has blindly and piously
supported Israel in three different wars.

The three wars Israel fought were wars
of aggression.

The objective of these three wars was
the systematic removal of the Palestinian
nation from its homeland

THE FIRST PROPOSITION. ”blind and
pious IVS. support in three different
wars.” is historically unsound. First of all.
there have not been three different wars.
but only one war. That war began on May
15. 1948 when the armies of Egypt. Syria.
’lransjordan. Saudi Arabia. Iraq. and
Iebanon launched a coordinated attack on
Israel. May 15. 1948 was the day that the
British mandate in Palestine evpired and
the State of Israel came into being This
(Establishment of Israel. as a sovereign
state. was accomplished by the I'ntted
Nations (leneral Assembly vote of Nov
ember 2m. 1947 Thus. the nations of the
Arab League initiated the Arab-Israeli
War by attacking the sovereign state of
Israel in contravention of Article two.
(‘hapter one of the l'nited States (‘harter
'llie war. which began with Arab aggres
sion on May 13. i948. has not yet ended
The tirst round ot hostilities was termina

ted not by a peace treaty. but by the
armistice agreements of February 27. 1949
with Egypt and April 3. 1949 with Jordan.

Since I948. the Arab-Israeli War has
been punctuated by numberous outbreaks
of armed conflict. The most notable
outbreaks occurred in 1956. 1967 and 1971.
It is important to emphasize. however.
that these were not “different” wars. but
rather separate campaigns of the one
protracted war in the Mideast. This fact
bears directly upon the nature of the
United States‘ position regarding the
conflict.

On May 25. 1950. the United States issued
the Tripartite Declaration along with
France and Britain. This declaration
states the position that the United States
has maintained with unerring consistency
for nearly 25 years. The currently relevant
aspects of the declaration are as follows:
iii the t'S. recognizes “that the Arab
states and Is ael all need to maintain a
certain level of armed forces for the
purpose of assuring their internal security
and their legitimate self-defense." t2) the
IVS. has a “deep interest and desire to
promote the establishment and mainten-
ance of peace and stability in the area."

Dl'RING THE PERIOD 1968 to 1973.
prior to the military action of 1973. the
Arab nations received a total of $12,700.
(itioooo in aid from the United States and
the Soviet t’nion 138.6 billion from the
US. i. During this same period. the United
States supported Israel with $1.800.00t).000_
’Ihat amounts to a ratio in foreign aid of
seven to one in favor of the Arabs' That
(l(.{‘S not sound like “blind and pious I'S.
support for the state of Israel." It sounds
more like an investment in the state of
Israel in an ett'ort to prevent engulfment of
that small nation by wealthier and more
populous neighbors.

The second and third propositions of Mr
Allbrtght's thesis will be examined in
subsequent comments
