to use boilers

By PAUL (‘L’RRAN
Kernel Staff Writer

UK seeks

permission

an independent student newspaper

 

1‘ HR!“ E W EEKS AGO UK petitioned the
Department for Natural Resources and
Environmental Protection for permission
to fire up two 24-year—old coil boilers that
do not meet present air pollution stan-
dards.

James Wessels, physical plant director.
said the boilers would be activated only if
an extreme shortage of natural gas and
fuel oil places the University in the
position of either burning the coal or
shutting down completely.

When the boilers~—located on Upper
Street—were last tested. they showed a
particulate emission rate of .70 lbs. per
million BTll‘s. Wessels said the legally
acceptable limit is .20 lbs. per million
BTU's.

THE University has also asked the
Kentucky Energy Council (KECi for a
hardship assistance status in order to ob-
tain enough fuel to heat the Medical Center

and possibly the dormitories Hardship
assistance status would give the
University high priority for any available
fuel. To date, UK hasn't received an an-
swer from either agency, Wessels said.
UK must now file a new application with
the KEC to comply with a new federal
program that went into effect Jan. 15.

DAN ROBERTS. a spokesman for the
agency in Frankfort, said new forms have
been sent to UK. But he added, “Like
anything the federal government does, it‘s
full of bugs."

Normally UK heats over five million
square feet of space. To provide the steam
needed to heat this are the University's
two centralized heating plants use coal.
natural gas and fuel oil.

Dl'HING THE 1972-73 fiscal year the
centralized plants used approximately
15.360 tons of coal. 607.892 MCF of natural

gas and 366.973 gallons of fuel oil. To meet
air pollution requirements UK shut down
two coal boilers at the central heating
plant which burned 9,357 tons of coal
during 1972-73.

In its five page appeal to the Department
for Natural Resources and Environmental
Protection. UK traced the steps it has
taken to modernize its heating system
based on the assumption that. "....we
could obtain (natural ) gas and oil would be
no problem." Covering a three—year
period. these expenditures include:

rln June 1970, installation of two gasoil
boilers at the Medical Center plant was
completed at a cost of $1,759,188.

~ In December 1972. installation of two
additional gas-oil boilers was completed at
the central heating plant at a cost of
$1,058,781.

NEW YORK — Three of the nation's
largest oil companies reported on Thur-

debate continued over the industry's
earnings in the midst of rising prices and
shortages.

Mobil Oil Co, the nation's second largest
oil company, reported a 47 per cent profit
increase in 1973 compared to 1972, while
Texaco. the industry’s third largest, an-
nounced a 45 per cent gain, and Shell,
seventh in size, said its profits were up by
28 per cent.

Reciprocal program good

We heartily endorse the reciprocal tuition
program between Kentucky and Tennessee. If the
proposal is passed by the Tennessee legislature,
broader educational opportunities will be offered to
students of both states.

Conditions of the program (as explained in the Jan.
23 Kernel “Reciprocity program now brewing," page
1) would allow students from one state to attend any
state supported school of the other state. Tennessee
institutions will offer Bluegrass residents a variety of
outstanding programs and, in most cases, at tuition

rates lower than found in our state.
The University of Tennessee, which has several

branches, is recognized for nuclear science research
and cooperates with Oak Ridge Laboratories in this
respect. UT is also known for its participation in
aeronautical sciences in conjunction with the federal
instutution at Tullahoma, engineering and its liberal
arts program.

Although the barrier to implementation of this
program is clearance by the Tennessee governing
body, many sources feel the bill will pass safely.

Unemployment a plague

Employment—or better yet, unemployment—has
been a problem plaguing Americansthe past few
years. One goup, though, has had little to worry
about, our politicans.

In office, their lucrative salaries and expense ac-
counts have kept them in an economic position envied
by constituents. Once out, most return to law prac-
tices or business offers to live out their years with
memories of caucuses and smoke—filled galleries.

But all of this is changing. What does a crooked (let
us limit that to “exposed” ) politician do?

Let's face it, an ordinary job won’t do.

-Already used to working as a team, we propose
Spiro and Richard set up a law firm on the theory that
to break the law you have to know the law. Now this
won’t be easy, considering Spiro has moved close to
disbarment and Richard’s future in the bar is
questionable. It has to be something different,
something original to persuade clients, something
like “Nixon and Agnew, an Alternative Law Firm.”
The catch would be they’d only handle cases settled
out of court.

—The Nixon-Agnew Guide to the Press: The func-
tion of NAG to the Press would be twofold. First.
present. to the public a rating of the top 10 newspapers
in the country. Second, to never mentional the
Washington Post.

—They could form a rock group called “Tough".
The first album, entitled “The Tough Get Going”
(when the going gets tough), would feature Nixon’s
hit single, an updated version of “Me and My
Shadow". Its subtitle would be “I May Be
Schizophrenic butat Least I Have Each Other”. Spiro
would follow up with a stirring rendition of “Give Me
Just a Little More Time“, a protest song about in-
come tax.

-A football team, the Washington Politicos, would
be a big hit with sports fans. Nixon could be quar—
terback, if he can pass the buck, he can pass a foot-
ball. Agnew would be a great punt return specialist.
His expertise in kickbacks is infamous; with him
playing, each game wouuld be no contest.

With both of them on the field together, it would be a
rare opportunity to see all their moves.

Letters to the Kernel

A little more support, too late

I am writing this letter in
support of Mark Manning‘s letter
of January 23rd. As Mr. Manning
pointed out, the proposed meal
plan has inherent disadvantages
for the student.

But, I would like to add another
disadvantage which I feel is
important for any meal plan user
to understand. Under the
proposed plan a lost or stolen
coupon book is non-replaceable.
The plan allows for numbered
coupons, which if stolen. could be
possibly traced by giving the
cashiers a list of numbers to

today‘s 'Kernel explains that
the proposal has been with-
drawn by l'niversity officials.
watch for. But if a coupon book is
actually lost, there is no available
means by which to replace it. So.
among other disadvantages. the
proposed meal plan allows for
any student to lose up to $250.00
(one semester's worth of
coupons).

If you feel as I do that the
proposed meal plan favors Food
Services instead of the student

Even a fine tuned economy
can present sickening results

WASHINGTON — For a while
some of the fellas over at the
Department of Commerce were
playing around with a computer
they had named OILBOP.
OILBOP had been programmed
to calculate how many more
dollars it was going to cost us on
the basis of a 100 per cent rise in
the price of foreign crude.
OILBOP's answers were
sickening then, but now the price
has risen 400 to 500 per cent and
everything else has gone so
unpredictably flooey that the
fuys have shut OILBOP down, not
somuch because they can't stand
the bad news. as they don‘t know
how to program the machine.
There are too many unknown
variables.

Not many years ago gentlemen
like our Secretary of the
Treasury were so sure of their
extrapolative abilities that
government economists used to
talk seriously about “fine-
tuning" the economy. The fine-
tuners would have had you
believe thaat they could control
unemployment, inflation and
production within some fraction
of a percentage point. Actual
experience. as opposed to the
objuscatory blather in which the
(‘ouncil of Economic Advisers

deals, shows that with each
passing year their ability to fine-
tune or gross-tune diminishes.

WHEN NIXON AND his
shrinking circle of advisers can
spare the time from tax and
grand-jury problems, they make
noises to tell us that what we are
going through is temporary, and
tantalize us with nostalgia for the
Golden Fifties. cheap gas, a bull
market, and a college diploma
that could bring a reasonably
good return on the investment.

In truth, however, most
Americans took a pay cut in real,
spendable dollars. Our standard
of living fell last year even before
the consequences of the oil price
rise beganto hit in the first weeks
of December. On top of that,
other nations are learning from
the Arabs so that the prices they
charge us for bauxite,
manganese, chromium. mica.
flourine, asbestos, and many
other essential minerals are also
on the rise.

The response to this, insofar as
we've had any. is to look at
Europe and Japan and note that
they are in a worse fix. with the
value of their money going down
and their unemployment rates
going up faster than ours. A few
people in the government like

then I urge you to take action.

of Trustees members (their
addresses ave available in the

Saga of the American househusband

By ROBERT CLAIBORNE

What started the whole thing was
my wife's orthopedic surgery. The re-
sult for her: seven weeks of plaster
and crutches. For me. seven weeks in
which—with a little help from our
friends—I kept house.

It is tempting to say that I faced this
prospect with apprehension, having
read the allegations of certain militant
feminists that housekeeping (a) oc-
cupies the Average American House-
wife for approximately eighty hours a
week and (b) is degrading. To be
honest. however, my wife and I had
both long ago concluded that these
writers knew even 'less about house-
work than about human nature. We
were well aware, for example. that
she. despite being saddled with a
major share of our domestic burdens,
normally manages to spend all her
weekday mornings writing and most
of her weekday afternoons in such
nondomestic pursuits as working for
the peace movement and chatting and
shopping with friends. It did occur to
me, however, to keep a rough count
01 my own housekeeping hours and see
how near they cam: to erghty a week.

Or how far.

In round numbers, it worked out

 

 

about like this. Making breakfast and
dinner and doing dishes for same: 1153
hours a day. or 101/2 a week. Fixing
lunch and washup on weekends, one-
half hour a day. or 1 hour a week.
Shopping, taking out and collecting
laundry and miscellaneous: 3 hours
a week. Total: 14% hours a week.

Thus far my own contribution, to
which must be added an allowance for
“outside" labor. Fixing lunch on work
ing days (performed by relays of
friends): one-half hour a day or 2'1,
a week. Shopping by same: 1 hour a
week. Ironing: 1 hour a week, by our
friendly Chinese laundryman. Clean-
ing: 8 hours a chi. by our West
Indian houseworker Total outside
work: 12',"2 hours a week. Grand total:
27 hours a week.

My portion of this. though coming
on top of a full-time writing job, got
done without grossly fatiguing me———or,
of course, degrading me.

I do not, obviously, claim that this
schedule typifies sevtn weeks in the
life of the Average American House-
wife. In particular. as most readers
will already have spotted. there are no
lcids figured into the equation. My own
two did in fact visit us during that
time. as they regularly do, but I have
omitted them to il\'()lG complicating
the story. More broadly. I would note

 

that a sizable proportion of American
housewives a third to a half—have
either no children or grown children
I would note fttrther that of those who
haye thildren, a goodly number have
them of an age to take over a portion
of the extra work they generate. as my
own two routinely do when they Visit

amount of equally routine sparrin,n

I do not know how successful these
all»too-visible persuaders are in selling
their housekeeping mystique to the
Average American Housewrtc. That
they must be at least reasonably suc-
cessful sems implicit in their annual
expenditure of tens of millions in ped-

dling this particular bill of goods;
surely somebody must be buying it.
And those who do are undoubtedly

noted, follows Parkinson‘s law. ex—

panding to fill the time a\ailablc for

it. And it will tlcariy expand most
inexorably for those unfortunate
women who have been brainwashed

 

into accepting the inhuman standards
of the housekeeping mystique.

Don't get me wrong. I do not sug-
gest that bec-.use the difficulties of
housekeeping have been grossly ex-
aggerated—by writers of both TV com-
mercials and feminist tracts—~it is
therefore lots of fun. Though many
women (my wife included) find some
aspects of homemaking—cooking and
preserving, for instance—rewarding at
least part of the time, much of it is
incontestably dull. Though no duller,
I would wager, than working in a
typing pool or on an assembly line.
Nor. dull or not. can I see it as
“degrading" at least not until some—
one explains to me why it is degrading
for a w o~naii to sweep a floor but not
for a man to sweep a street.

 

Least of all am I suggesting that
woman‘s place is in the home; her
place is wherever her tastes, talents
and luck can get her. I do say. how-
ever. that for those who approach the
home with common sense. free from
the manufactured obstssions of the
housekeeping mystique. there are a lot
worse places a woman could be. Or
1| man, for that matter.

Acupuncture

 

Use of Oriental phenomena increases
as American research insures safety

By TERESA ZIMMERER
Kernel Staff Writer
Acupuncture. the Chinese
medical phenomena, has been
causing controversy after its
introduction to American
medicine.

Acupuncture was imported to
the l’nited States as a means of
anesthesia not requiring drugs.
This use is relatively new. even in
China, though it has been used as
a cure for disease since 1000 BC

Tlll‘l PHILOSOPHY behind
acupuncture is foreign to the
methods of modern Western
medicine. According to the
traditional Chinese explanation.
the health of an individual relies
on the balance and maintenance
of harmony in the body.

()ne‘s system is in balance
when the life force. chi‘, is
allowed to flow freely to all the
organs. This force runs through
invisible channels called
meridians.

If the vital life force is blocked,
disharmony occurs and the body
becomes ill. The use of needles in
acupuncture restores the free
flow of energy in the body.
However, this interpretation of
acupuncture is not accepted by
modern Chinese doctors.

WHEN ACUPUNCTURE is
used as an anesthetic, needles of
various sizes are passed into
select areas of the body up to
several inches in depth. There
are approximately 500 identified
basic acupuncture points, most of
them near nerves.

The needles, vibrated either by
hand or by electric current
during an operation, are
theorized to block pain
stimulation to the brain.

This so-called “gate control
theory" has been proposed by
some American doctors as a
physical basis for the effects of
acupuncture, but the actual
reason is not yet known.

“THE GATE theory is the most
logical physiologic explanation
we have," said Dr. John E.
Plumlee. associate professor of
anesthetics at the UK College of
Medicine.

The success of acupuncture as
an anesthetic is postulated to be
due to the psychological effect of

suggestion. Nevertheless.
acupuncture has been used in
operations performed on
animals.

Dr. WE. Waltrip, a Lexington
physician, claimed the effect of
acupuncture on animals in-
dicates that more than an hyp-
notic effect is involved.

SOME ()F the advantages of
acupuncture include:

—no deaths from drugs.

the patient is conscious to

assist the doctor in the operation.

~no danger of blood clotting
since the patient can move im-
mediately after surgery.

—and

no postoperative
nausea.

A Lexington chiropractor. whc
prefers to remain unidentified.
said acupuncture “is beneficial.
since it increases body functions
to their normal state.“ He warns
acupuncture is not a cure-all,

although it has merit.

Waltrip stated acupuncture “is
not a hoax. . .1 won't be surprised
if it develops into a safe means of
anesthesia." Acupuncture can be
effectively used on people in an
unstable physical state. he said.

WHEN ASKED if he thought
acupuncture to have value as an
anesthetic. Plumlee replied,
“Anything which survived
thousands of years has to have
some value. If it truly works it
should be safe. as there is no
administration of drugs.“

A hazard resulting from
acupuncture is death from in-
fection caused by dirty needles.
Another danger occurs when
people who have serious diseases
may go to an acupuncturist when
orthodox medical treatment is
really what they need. For this
reason, medical societies in
many states require acupuncture
treatments to be administered or
supervised by licensed
physicians.

Although acupuncture prevents
pain. it does not relax muscles
like anesthetic medication.

 

Because of this. according to
Waltrip. acupuncture is not ef-
fective for all surgical
procedures or for all patients. He
sees acupuncture as dangerous
“only if you exceed its
limitations. which are not clearly
defined as yet."

ACL’PL'NCTL'RE GAINED
national attention during the
summer of 1971 when several
prominent US. physicians
visited China to observe its use as
an anesthetic. They watched
many operations. including tooth
extractionsand the removal of an
infected portion of a lung.

In the United States today,
acupuncture is utilized in open
heart, dental, lung. brain. and
gynecological surgery. among
other types.

There are 200 separate studies
on acupuncture now in progress
in the United States. The National
Acupuncture Research Society
was established in New York City
in 1971 for this purpose. Com-
mittees of the National Institutes

of Health (NlGi and the
American Society of
Anesthesiologists are also

examining its use in surgery.

“WE SIT and speculate on it
(acupuncture) in informal
discussions." stated Plumlee. “If
it develops into a useful thing it

will probably be taught at all med
schools . "

Senate drOps speed
limit to 55 mph

By RON MITCHELL
Kernel Staff Writer

FRANKFURT — The state
senate unanimously passed a bill
Thursday limiting the speed limit
on Kentucky highways to 55 miles
per hour, although many of the
senators were not in agreement
with the legislation.

Although the vote was 35-0,
several senators spoke against
the bill, contending there is no
way of knowing if there is really
an energy crisis, which the
legislation was designed to
remedy.

THE MEASURE was passed
with an amendment exempting
emergency vehicles from ob-
serving the limit. It must now be
sent back to the house for con
currence on a similar amend-
ment. The bill will then be sent to

(iov. Wendell Ford for his
signature.

Sen. Kelsey Friend. D-
Pikeville. said his vote was a

“reluctant yes" but he had no
other choice since the legislation
was necessary to comply with
national law

Sen. Nicholas Baker. D-
Louisville, said he had “serious
doubts about the energy crisis“
and doubted if Kentucky would
any highway funds for
noncompliance. Withholding of
state highway funds was
established by Congress as the
penalty for noncompliance.

OTHER SENATORS spoke
against the bill, most criticizing
the Nixon administration and
charging that an actual energy
crisis doesn't exist.

The bill will be in effect for two
years. with June 30. 1975 being
the cutoff date. Should the end to
the fuel shortage come prior to
cutoff date. the requirement
would stand repealed on that
date.

A bill to require employers to
excuse employees. with pay, for

in?”

the purpose of serving on any
local. state or federal jury was
referred back to the judiciary
committee.

PROPOSED BY Sen. John
Lackey, D-Richmond, SB 38
would bring all Kentuckians in
line with present law requiring
such payment for teachers and
state employees.

Payment to the juror would be
made by the employer with the
jury fee being included in the
jurors daily salary total.

Lackey, speaking in favor of
the. bill. said jury duty is about
“the only thing we now ask of the
citizenry and most of the time
they take duty at a financial
loss.“

“THIS legislation will make for
more competent jurors. as now
all we are getting in the lower
courts are loafers and
housewives." Lackey said.

Sen. Nicholas Baker. D-
Louisville. agreed that jurors
need to be better compensated
for duty. but suggested it come
about by increasing the fee.

The bill was then sent back to
the senate judiciary committee
for reconsideration at the
suggestion of Sen. Lacey Smith,
l)~l.ouisville.

PASSED BY the body wasa bill
to permit individual counties to
decide not to be covered by
certificates of need and licensure
provisions. The certification
would relate to ambulances and
ambulance services within the
county.

The decision on compliance
would be made by the county‘s
fiscal court. The bill was spon-
sored by Sen. John Berry, D-New
Castle.

FRANKFURT — The state
senate killed the controversial
bottle redemption bill Thursday
when a resolution was passed
calling for an indepth study of the
state's overall litter problem.

Sen. John Berry Jr.. D-New
t‘astle. introduced the resolution
which directs the Legislative
Research Commission to conduct
the litter study and report to the
1976 legislature. Berry was
original sponsor of Senate Bill
ISBI 65.

The bill would require “a
redemption value on all beverage
containers sold or offered for
sale. of not less than five cents."
Redemption centers and a
noncompliance penalty were
allowed for in the bill.

Senate kills bottle bill;
orders study of litter

returned to the Labor and in-
dustry Committee. and that no
suggestions be made by the
committee

When a committee releases a
bill without suggestion it is
dropped unless 20 or more
senators vote to have it brought
to the floor for vote.

Similar action will be taken on
HB I41. the house of represen-
tatives equivalent to $865.

BERRY SAID afterward that
he proposed the resolution
because “at this point in time it
didn‘t have a chance of passing.“

He said numerous senators
have received ”floods“ of letters
opposing the bill, the result of an
extensive campaign by
organized opposition.

“Objections to the bill can‘t be

countered with reliable in-
formation at this point.” he
