Candidates discuss education proposals

By CA. DUANE BONIFER
Associate Editor

and JAY BLANTON
Executive Editor

Kentucky’s gubernatorial candi-
dates told the Council on Higher Ed
ucation yesterday that higher educa-
tion is inextricably linked with the
health and recovery of Kentucky‘s
economy.

In separate speeches, both Repub-
lican John Harper and Democrat
Wallace Wilkinson said they would
begin by restoring the health of
higher education itself.

In a prepared statement, Harper
told CHE members that the “bene-
fits derived from higher education
cannot be measured only in terms of
educational advancement for indi-
viduals."

Higher education also provides
benefits in research and service.

which act as “a catalyst for econom-
ic development.“ Harper said.

But higher education. like the rest
of the state. is suffering from the ef-
fects of revenue shortfalls and bud-
get cutbacks, he said.

To remedy the budget problems
suffered by the state's colleges and
institutions. Harper said it would be
his administration‘s goal to "contin-
ue increasing the percentage of for-
mula funding appropriated to col-
leges and universities.“

One of the greatest concerns of
parents. Harper said, is the ever-in-
creasing costs of attending college.

Since the state's responsibility is
to provide higher education opportu-
nities for all our citizens, Harper
said. that if elected, he will pledge
more funding to the Kentucky High-
er Education Assistance Authority.

The assistance authority operates
loan. grant and work study pro-

grams to promote educational op-
portunities.

One area in particular that needs
improvement in higher education is
faculty salaries, Harper said. ”Sala-
ries at Kentucky colleges are well
below the median of benchmark in-
stitutions. making it increasingly
difficult to attract highlyqualified
professors," he said.

It will be a priority to bring fac~
ulty salaries at competitive levels.
Harpersaid.

When asked whether he would
consider further tuition increases to
fund higher education programs.
Harper said tuition could be raised
to an extent. He also said that he
would not rule out the possibility of
atax increase.

Wilkinson also said he would not
rule out a tuition increase in order
to improve education. However. un-

Man shows opinions with cartoons

By RHONA BOWLES—JUDD
Contributing writer

In high school. Joel Pett drew
rude pictures of his teacher and
hung them up for his classmates to
laugh at.

As an adult, Pett draws rude pic-
tures of public figures and political
events and gets paid for it.

Pett. editorial cartoonist for the
Lexington Herald-Leader, spoke to a
group of about 80 people at a Council
on Aging forum in 230 Student Cen-
ter yesterday. He also presented a
slide show of some of his drawings.

Although his drawings are de-
signed for entertainment they are
also sometimes controversial.

“I get a lot of calls from people
about my drawings,” he said.

One such call came after a car-
toon was published of a lady telling
her husband “Not tonight honey, the

pope’s stand on birth control has
given me a headache.” Pett said.

“Some woman called and said.
‘You hate Catholics' and I said ‘No,
I don’t hate Catholics.‘ And she said.
‘Yes you do.’ So I said. ‘OK, Ido.‘ "

But sometimes the opposite hap-
pens.Pettsaid.

“Sometimes you‘re trying to
waste somebody and they end up lik-
ingit."hesaid.

“I was doing a series on Martha
layne’s (Collins) husband. It was
called ‘Dr. Bill‘ after ‘Mr. Bill' on
the old late night Saturday Night
Live show." Pett said.

“It showed him running around
taking money from everybody and
he’d always get smashed in the
end,"hesaid.

Dr. Collins liked it so much, he
called and offered to buy the origi-
nals. Pett said.

Before coming to the Herald-bead-

er 3‘2 years ago. Pett was a free
lance cartoonist in Bloomington.
Ind. His drawings have been pub-
lished in The Washington Post. The
New York Times, the Chicago Tri-
bune and The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Pett must follow certain
guidelines at the Herald-Leader, al-
though he is never asked to draw
specific cartoons. he said. His car-
toons must reflect the editoral
stance of the paper.

“All that stuff I draw. I deeply be-
lieve in," he said.

Pett’s presentation was a part of
the Council on Aging forum. The
Council on Aging was formed to pro-
mote educational programs. geron-
tology research and various other
services for senior citizens. It meets
every Tuesday and Thursday at 4
pm. in 230 Student Center.

like Harper. Wilkinson said he didn‘t
want to raise taxes.

Wilkinson told the CHE that he
spent three years “campaigning in
Kentucky. talking about the way
things are and the way things ought
to be.“

“I won that battle . . . and we are
not going to look back." he said.

The Casey County native said that
during the last 10 years, Kentucky
has had “probably the greatest
transfer of material wealth out of
the state than we have had in all of
our history combined.“

The education reforms created by
a special session of the General As-
sembly helped the state‘s educatio-
nal standards. Wilkinson said. “but
it‘s not something to sit on: it‘s
something to build on.“

He called his education proposal
one of the “most dynamic programs
any gubernatorial candidate has
presented" and said education ex-
perts across the country “agree it‘s
one of the best they have seen."

The Democrat pledged to the CHE
that his administration would be
"realistic" when making revenue
predictions.

“We will not mislead you. even in
a single instance." he said. “If we
ever tell you (that) you have fund-
ing for a particular program. you
will have them."

But Wilkinson told the council that
if they can find a program and the
funding to match it. he will see that
the program is implemented.

Wilkinson rejected the possibility
of raising taxes in order to help fi-
nance education.

“We are not going to tax our way
out of our problems.“ he said. “We
have to work our way out of our
problems.”

He also rejected conforming to
federal tax standards as a means to
gain federal dollars because it would
be “counterproductive and regres-
sive to the state's economy and cost
far too many dollars."

The Council on Higher Education
is considering a mid—year tuition in-
crease at state universities. If en-
acted. students will pay $10 more in
tuition next semester.

ln—state full-time undergraduate
students at UK currently pay $706 a
semester. a 4 percent increase that
resulted from last year's tuition
raise by CHE.

The proposal is in response to a
projected $8.8 million shortfall in the
state‘s budget for higher education.
The tuition-increase proposal would
recover $1.1 million of the projected
budget cuts.

Three hearings were scheduled by
the council to gather student input
about the proposed mid-year tuition
hike. The first hearing will be Sept.
21 at UK with other hearings sched-
uled for Western Kentucky Universi-
ty and Ashland Community College
the following week.

The CHE will make a decision on
the tuition proposal in the fall once
final budget figures have been deter-
mined.

Although there were three tuition
alternatives listed in the CHE'S
meeting agenda. the $10 tuition-in-
crease proposal was the most dis-
cussed in the council‘s Lexington
meeting yesterday.

In addition. the CHE is consid-
ering a proposal to change the way
university tuition rates are set bien-
nially.

Currently. tuition rates are deter-
mined by examining the cost of tu-
ition at other benchmark institutions

and the state‘s per capita income.

The CHE has been implementing
tuition increases this way since 1982.
In other benchmark states such as
Georgia. Illinois. Indiana and Ohio,
the tuition is set by each institution‘s
governing body.

The report to the council about a
possible tuition increase was sup-
posed to be ready in August. This
date was extended in order to allow
students more time for input at the
hearings. said CHE Student Rep
resentative David Holton.

Holton, a law student at L'K. said
a tuition increase would have a
“devastating impact on students,"

“I realize that no one wants to
raise tuition." Holton said. but the
council needs to consider “how dev-
astating an increase would be. ”

Holton said raising tuition during
the school year would be a violation
“of an agreement we the students
have with the Council on Higher Ed-
ucation."

The council sets tuition rates
according to a biennial budget. with
tuition being the second largest
source of income for state universi~
ties. according to Kenneth Walker.
the council‘s deputy executive direc-
tor for finance.

UK President D8\'id Roselle said
he wasn‘t sure where money from a
proposed tuition increase would go
at UK. Roselle said the University
had anticipated the state budget
cuts. and had planned accordingly.

It takes about $1.3 million in fund-
ing to have a 1 percent salary in-
crease. said Ed Carter. L'K vice
president for administration A $10
tuition increase would bring in only
about 3200.000 to UK. he said.

A mid-year tuition hike would es-
sentially be a Band-Aid to replace

Group seeks to promote

About 25 people turned out last
night in the Student Center to find
out more about Amnesty Interna-
tional.

The group‘s vice president, David
Eaton, was encouraged by the rep-

SUIISQ .

Network is encouraging UK students
to join and participate in their fund-
raising campaign to promote human
rights in the world. Eaton said.

"Raising awareness on campus is
our primary goal." Eaton said.

Van to help injured cheerleader Baldwin get around campus

By JIM WHITE
Assistant Sports Editor

When the UK football team opens its sea-
son against Utah State a week from tomor-
row, the parking lot of Commonwealth Sta-
dium will be crammed with every type of
recreational vehicle imaginable.

One in particular, however, will definite-
ly standout.

UK cheerleading coach Dale Baldwin will
be in the captain’s chair.

But for Baldwin, who was partially par-
alyzed in a cheer-leading accident last sea-
son and is confined to a wheelchair. the
steak blue and white van is much more
than just another RV. -— it’s a necessity.

“Whenever I went anywhere I (rode in) a
car." Baldwin said. “And there was a cer-
tain technique to putting me in and getting
meout.”

Now, however. an automatic lift will pick
Baldwin and his wheelchair off the wound
and place Hm in the van.

The furxh for the 814.” cutomiaed vehi-

cle were raised by the University of Louis-
ville cheerleaders and Louisville business-
man Phil Booth.

After the van was purchased. additional
work was needed to make it accessible for
Baldwin. The $18,000 job was donated by
Kustom Koncepts Inc. in Inuisville.

"They came to us and asked if we would
do it," said Tom Duddy of Kustom Kon-
cepts. “Dale is a special person and it was
a good feeling to be able to do this for
him."

Besides the automatic lift, the van also
has a remote starter. Baldwin can fire up
his new ride by just pushing a remote but-
ton in his apartment.

“It’s just a little push button and the van
starts outside." Baldwin said. “Once the
buttonispushedtheenginewillgotlrough
aseriesofcheckstomakesureeverything
isOK.’I‘henaftersixorsevensecondsthe
van will start.”

Jtlt about the ally um Baldwin can't
do right now is «hive the vehicle. but he

said he is planning next year to have it
equippedsohecandoso.

In the meantime, however, Baldwin will
have plenty to keep him occupied while rid-
ing around town.

The van. which has a picture of a Wildcat
and a Cardinal on the spare tire cover.
came complete with color television, VCR.
radar detector and CB. radio. All the com-
forts of home.

“It‘s also got a couch that electrically
folds down into a bed.” Baldwin said. “It’s
got kind of a bar area in the back seat with
acooler."

The fund drive for the van began last
year after Thanksgiving. said Ixmisville
cheerleading coach Sherrill Travis.

The squad asked for donations at Louis-
ville‘s Shelbyville Road Mall.

At last season’s UK-louisville basketball
game, the UK cheerleaders joined in to
help sell “Baldwin Believer“ stickers to

the concert raised more than $700

Roland Mullins.

The organization is trying to con-
tact the Kentucky Theatre and the
UK theatre department to promote
movies and plays which support Al‘s

This year, Amnesty International

It will also be writing more letters

Former Rep. Williams fired as head of special fund

Associated Press

Williams’ firing was effective im-

mediately. Labor officials alleged

FRANKFORT —~ Former state that Williams may have misused

Rep. Aubrey

Williams said he would state equipment and personnel and

appeal his dismissal as director of that he harassed and intimidated
the state Special Fund Division to employees.

the Personnel Board and indicated
he thought the action was racially
motivated.

Acting labor Secretary Carol M.
Palmore. whose office oversees the
Special Fund Division, said Wednes-
day that she regretted the office sit-
uation had to result in a firing, par-
ticularly since Williams is black.

“I'm very sorry that it came to
this ~ probably more so because
he‘s black," Palmore said, adding
that she was “going to make a per-
sonal effort to recruit a black person
to replace him.“

Palmore listed the reasons that
Williams was fired as “erratic man-
agement style. harassment and in-
timidation of employees" under his
supervision, “violation and threat-
ened violation of rights afforded to
merit employees" and “strong evi-
dence of your misuse of state per-
sonnel. equipment, supplies and
postage for personal reasons."

Williams, a bouisville lawyer now
suspended from the bar and director
of the Special Fund Division since
November 1984. said Wednesday
that he planned an appeal but re-

fused to respond directly to the alle-
gations against him.

“They failed to tell me and I
failed to ask whether or not I had
the right or whether it was my re-
spomibility to tell whites what they
could or could not do," he said. “I
was not informed that I was sup-
posed to only collect a paycheck and
leave white employees alone."

The Labor Cabinet began a review
of Williams after three employees in
the Special Fund‘s Intusville office
filed grievances against him alleg-
ing that he harassed and publicly
embarrassed them.

But perhaps the most significant
grievance came from a janitor who
claimed another janitor ran person-
al errands for Williams and retal-
iated against her because she com-
plained of Williams‘ use of state

equipment and supplies for non-gov-
emmenlalreasons.

The review team said it found evi-
dence to uphold most of those griev-
ances.

It found no evidence of alleged ra-
cial or sexual discrimination by Wil-
liams.

But the review team's report went
on to describe the office run by Wil-
liams where working conditions
were “stressful" and where workers
claimed they were intimidated and
harassed by Williams.

Employees said Williams did not
maintain regular office hours, had
little knowledge of Special Fund
work and did not spend his office
hours doing that work. Instead, he
conducted private work and work
for black and religious organiza~
tions, the report said.

Toyota applicants to learn job fate soon

Associated Press

FRANKFORT - After months of
waiting. thousands of applicants are
going to receive a status report on
their chances for employment at the
new Toyota auto plant near George—
town.

The letters will be mailed soon be-
cause “we want them to know we
haven‘t forgotten them,“ said Jeff
Smith, Toyota‘s U.S. liaison man—
ager.

Although Toyota already has hired
most of its managers and some su-
pervisors — about 200 people so far
— the bulk of the production hiring
for the first shift next summer will
not occur until December or Jan—
uary. By late 19%. Toyota expects to
employ 3,000 on two shifts.

There have been more than 80,000
applications and “some people have
gotten discouraged because they're
used to a company taking applica~
tions and then hiring soon,“ said

James Daniels. commissioner of
Kentucky's Department for Employ-
ment Services.

“With Toyota, it hasn‘t been like
that. People have to realize that this
is a little different,“ said Smith,
whose agency is coordinating Toyo-
ta‘s pre-hiring screening.

Of the 80.000 applicants. about 38,-
000 are being considered for produc-
tion positions. These group leaders,
team leaders and team members
will have the largest share of jobs at
the plant now under construction.

Smith said the company has been
dealing with the top 15 percent to 20
percent of those who have com-
pleted the first written tests, but he
expects the percentage to increase
as the hiring progresses. Top
scorers on the written test are asked
to participate in the Toyota Assess-
ment Center.

The main center is at Kentucky
State University in Frankfort. The
state also set up temporary assess-

ment centers this summer at Pres—
tonsburg and Madisonville to accom-
modate people in outlying areas of
the state.

At the assessment centers, appli-
cants engage in problem-solving
exercises and skills tests for up to
three days, depending on the posi-
tion they're seeking.

Gene Childress, executive director
of the assessment center, said about
5,000 people will have participated
by the end of the summer.

Toyota, meantime, has been run-
ning advertisements in the Detroit
Free Press to find candidates for
group leader jobs in 12 departments,
including stamping, trim. spray
painting and quality control.

As of Monday, 30 Detroit-area res-
idents had responded, said Helen
Flowers, manager of the state‘s Em-
ployment Services‘ field office in
Georgetown.

Smith said Toyota was looking
elsewhere only for group leaders be-

cause of a lack of qualified candi-
dates in Kentucky.

“This is not for production posi-
tions — which will make up the bulk
of the employment. We’re looking
for people at the supervisory level
that are experienced in auto tool and
die — the group in highly skilled
trades.

“Kentucky is not a major auto-
producing state. We knew from the
start that in certain technical areas,
we‘d have to go elsewhere. We will
continue to hire Kentuckians for the
other positions."

Harold Toomey, president of the
United Auto Workers Local 1681 in
Lexington, said he thought Toyota
could find qualified people in the
state.

“I think they‘re using that as an
excuse to bring their own people
in,” he said. “If they’re saying there
are not enough skilled people in the
state for those types of job. I would
disagree.

Reagan invites Harper to White House meeting

By JANE GIBSON
Associated Press

LOUISVILLE —— President Rea-
gan has invited Republican guberna-
torial nominee John Harper to the
White House next week for a brief~
ing on the Kentucky campaign, a
Harper spokeswoman said yester-
day.

“This was totally unexpected,"
said Carolyn Davis, Harper‘s cam~
paign coordinator. “Usually you

have to make phone calls, send let-
ters and beg. We hadn‘t asked for
such a meeting."

Harper will meet with the presi-
dent at 2:30 pm. EDT Tuesday at
the White House. A news conference
and photo session, and the. tradition-
al walk on the White House lawn,
will follow. she said.

Davis said Tom Thorne, the White
House political affairs director,
called her with the invitation at

about noon yesterday at Harper‘s
Louisville campaign headquarters.
“Of course he‘s going," she said.
“It‘s being billed as a briefing. I‘m
sure they'll talk about the cam-
paign.“

“When the president would like
you to drop by, you respond," Harp-
er said in a telephone interview
from his Shepherdsville office.

He allegedly conducted business
for his private clothing buinees and

These attorneys were “assigned to
