No vote
today for

some students

By RON MITCHELL
Kernel Staff Writer

Some 40 to 50 students will not be allowed
to vote today—although they
reregistered—due to administrative error
by Student Government (SC). SC spon-
sored a reregistration project where
students could register at the office or
certain locations throughout campus prior
to the Sept. 25 deadline.

David Mucci, SG administrative
assistant and coordinator of the program,
confirmed that some of the voter
registration forms were voided because of
inaccuracy or lack of information.

“Our major problem was that we hadn’t
organized them before taking them down.
We took them down on the last day near
closing time and things were pretty hec-
tic," he explained.

Mucci said SG secretary Judy McClain
took about 500 forms to the office shortly
before closing. Voter registration per-
sonnel checked the material, and forms
with incorrect or incomplete information
were discarded.

“We tried to go over them when they
were turned in. but it is awful hard to get to
everyone. Where you account for the
mistake, I don‘t know," Mucci said.

McClain explained all of the forms were
examined by both her and registration

 

personnel and
complete forms.
“The ones where sex and status were
omitted I filled in myself for some I knew,
but others were thrown away,“ she said.
McClain said she did not remember
exactly how many forms were voided by

there were many in-

 

dean

estimated the number at about 40 or 50.
Because of the hectic pace at the
registration office, errors were not
recorded on lists for future reference, as is
done in other cases where errors occur in
registration.

Dominick

calls for

independence

By The Associated Press

DENVER, Colo. (APl—Publicly
breaking with President Nixon, Sen. Peter
H. Dominick, R-Colo., today advised
Republicans to proclaim independence
from the White House and called on the
President to disclose immediately all
information bearing on the Watergate
investigations.

”1 am reluctant to talk about im-
peachment, as anyone who loves his
country should be," Dominick said. “But
the genie is out of the bottle, and it cannot
be put back in."

Dominick, a member of the Republican
Policy Committee in the senate and a long-
time Nixon loyalist, said the country faces
a genuine and grave crisis of confidence in
the President‘s ability to lead.

DOMINICK CALLED on Congress to
confirm quickly the nomination of House
Republican Leader Gerald Ford to be vice
president.

And he said investigations begun by
former Watergate special prosecutor
Archibald Cox should be “pursued with
vigor, unhindered by outside interference
from any source."

In remarks prepared for delivery to the
Denver Bar Association, Dominick said
the confidence of the American people
cannot be restored until the impeachment
question is disposed of.

HE SAID FULL disclosure by the
President will have an impact on im-
peachment proceedings and said the
outcome will depend on whether the
President‘s disclosure “is sufficient to
restore confidence in him."

Dominick said he is not suggesting there
are grounds for impeachment but added:
“Impeachment proceedings should be
viewed as a method of clearing the
Presidentas much as a way to remove him
from office."

The Student Senate Monday night
unanimously passed a resolution calling
for the resignation of President Nixon,
and further stipulated that if the
President does not resign, Congress should
impeach him.

Democratic prsidential primary.

He was given a week to get his affairs in

Lexington is certainly not an Ann Arbor, Berkeley or

Madison. Wis. where the

impact

student

populations is felt on city governments. But in light of
today‘s election we are reminded that onthe basis of
sheer numbers alone, a powerful University voting block is

possible.

The strong potential of student voting power is strange,
considering that just a few years ago the student franchise

was severely abridged.

Before 1972, a large element of the community was ac-
tually denied the right to vote. Many students were not
allowed to register because for one-quarter of the year they
returned to a hometown whose elections they could

probably not care less about.

In early 1972 the US. Supreme Court determined that 30
days should be the maximum voter residency requirement

in state. local and federal elections.

Subsequently. Kentucky drastically revised its
requirements during the 1972 special session of the
legislature. In Lexington, anyone may now register up to 30

days before an election.

The district representation provided by Lexington’s new
merged government offers a chance for the University
community, or for that matter any other political con-
stituency. to exert poltical clout. These chances were
dimmed when UK was gerrymandered into two urban
council districts, the Third and the Fourth. Still, all things
considered, the odds still favor the election of more truly

representative councilpersons.

A significant turnout of voters in the University precinCLs
is important in today’s election. The threat of not being

returned to office could prevent local officials from

 

Letters

 

Adapt-A-House rebuttal

I was personally very disturbed by the
invalid generalizations and inferences
made by Mr. Rice in his letter pertaining
to the Adopt-A-House program. I would
like to elaborate on the people whose house
we are adopting. The home owners have
all been screened by Dr. Pritum
Sabharwal, whose dedication to the
project has served as an inspiration to all
of us. A large percentage of the home
owners are either over 65 years of age, bed
ridden, or simply too poor to afford having
their house painted. All of the families
have agreed to allow us to adopt their
homes.

So for those people who would rather “sit
surrounded by their four dirty, dingy walls
and eat soy flour-adulterated meat pat-
ties" may do so. We are only working with
those people who want our help.

The statement made by Mr. Rice about
calling on a friend when he needs help does
not apply to those people. Most of the
families do not have anyone to turn to.
They have little, if any, contact with
anyone. For this reason I seriously
question why we have to be friends before

lerence that because Greeks are doing the
project it is chauvinistic, is the exact
reason why the Greeks were picked to
start the Adopt-A-House project. Many
Greeks wish to dispel the stereotype that
Mr. Rice so vividly protrayed in his letter.
Despite many of the valid criticisms about
"Greek relevancy," I find it extremely
frustrating to see an honest and sincere
attempt made by Greeks to be recognized
as anything less than that.

This project has provided many of the
fraternities and sororities an opportunity
to experience the gratification of helping a
fellow man. I can personally say that this
project has been my most rewarding and
educational experience in college and I

know that many others are able to say the
same.

So to all of you who doubt the project's
credibility and-or justification, go down to
the houses and make up your own mind.
I‘m willing to bet that Mr. Rice will change
some of his generalizations about the
project, and his stereotype of Greeks. I
encourage all other groups, dorms, etc., to
Adopt-A-House and make the project a
campus contribution to our.community.

Individual sex drives differ

By DR. FRANK BOWERS

Question: A student writes, “My
boyfriend and I have a good relationship in
most respects. One problem that seems to
be developing concerns his sex drive which
is a lot greater than mine. He says I should
accomodate to his needs but I resent
making love when I don‘t feel like it. Which
one of us is selfish?“

Answer: Neither one of you and here‘s
why Isay that. It is not uncommon for the
sexual needs of people to be somewhat
different. When the differences are
significant. as they seem to be in your
case, some sort of accomodation or
com promise is needed. In my experience it
has been the difficulty in reaching
acompromise that is more often the
problem between couples than the dif-
ferences in sexual drive per se.

Often this kind of problem relates to
more deep rooted struggles in the
relationship. The sexual argument may
symbolically play out the fight for
dominance and power between lovers. The
feeling that one is not adequately satisfied

by his lover may be difficult to express
openly and may therefore become
“translated" into a sense of indifference.

In my work with couples I have often
seen the situation where each partner
experiences themselves as the “victim.”
Their partner is seen as the villain. The
man may think of his lover as a
“withholding, repressed, castrating bitch”
trying in every way to destroy his
masculine ego. The woman may well see
her lover as “exploiter, chauvinist rapist"
trying relentlessly to reduce her to an
object for his selfish pleasure. When the
relationship is explored in some depth, it is
rare that things break down this simply.
The victim-villain formula usually doesn‘t
apply. but the larger issues of giving,
taking and sharing have not yet been
worked out.

Question: Another student writes, “My
boyfriend and I have been going together
for two years and are very much in love.
Lately he has been arguing that each of us
could and should express our genuine
affection sexually by inviting our friends

  

to bed with us. We have argued about this a
lot—he says I am old fashioned, but I don’t
feel it could be the same between us if our
relations included other people. What
should I do?"

Answer: It seems to me that our society
is moving rather quickly away from what
has been called the Victorian Sexual Ethic.
The advent of penicillin to effectively treat
venereal disease and effective con-
traception to control unwanted pregnancy
has moved us more in the directo of oc-
casional recreational sexual behavior. It
therefore does become increasingly dif-
ficult to make neat moral judgments about

specific kinds of sexual behaviors and
relationships.

Nevertheless, the issue in your case
cannot meaningfully be resolved in terms
of whether or not you are “old fashioned.“
The question as I would see it is “what
kinds of sexual and affectionate
relationships with men are consistent with
your values and feelings?“

If you feel that things wouldn‘t be the
same between your boyfriend and you if

you did as he suggests, chances are that
they in fact wouldn’t be. Your boyfriend is
suggesting that your values and feelings
are less valid than his by labeling them
“old fashioned." This would seem to be
where the problem really lies.

 

 

If in talking together you find that it is
impossible to come to an understanding
that feels right for both of you, you may
have to consider the possibility of a more
suitable partner. You might also consider
seeing one of the professionals in the
Student Mental Health Service who would
be glad to meet with you and see if they
could be of help.

Another attempt to liberate the Church

By MARY DUFFY

Four weeks ago, as was reported last
week in the Kernel, Bishop Ackerman of
the Covington diocese told UK’s Catholic
Newman Center that women servers
would no longer be allowed. Being a
member of the Newman Center, this news
struck close to home. Investigating the
incident, it was found that women and
young girls had been “clandestinely”
serving the Mass for over four years. Last
month, though; someone “told” on the
Center, evoking the response from the
Bishop. As a result, women and young
girls are no longer allowed to serve Mass.

A server, officially called an acolyte,
assists the priest at Mass by preparing the
altar, handing him the water and wine,
and helping distribute Communion. The
acolyte used to be considered an ordained
“minor order“ reserved for one sup-
posedly on the way to receiving full
priesthood. In September, 1972, the Pope
issued a decree which changed the func-
tion from a “minor order” to a ministry,
opening the position to any layman in-
terested. Of course, even prior to the

decree, the position of server was known,
practically, as an “altar boy” who was
looked upon as a helper rather than a real
official.

THE BISHOP. who outlawed “altar
girls”, bases this decision on the section of
the same 1972 decree, which states: “In
accordance with the venerable tradition of
the Church, installation in the ministries of
lector and acolyte is reserved from men.”

Bishop Ackerman refuses to permit
women servers, yet women lectors
(readers of the Gospel at Mass) continue
to perform at the Newman Center and at
most other Churches in the nation. Indeed,
some bishops elsewhere have interpreted
the ruling to not only allow women lectors
but servers as well.

What is the rationale behind the
“venerable tradition”? The ruling and its
enforcement is discriminatory and
destructive to women in the Catholic
Church. First of all, the Pope, in his 1972
decree, sought to modernize the Church,
making it more relevant to today‘s society.
Yet, “tradition” excludes one-half of the
people from functions which bring more
active participation into the workings of
the Church. Secondly, one has to ask what

Peace agreement
possible for Mid East

By RICHARD HUDSON

A lasting peace agreement in the
Middle East is possible. It must be
based on the Security Council resolu-
tion of Nov. 22, 1967, but with a
whole new set of guarantees for the
security of Israel.

Somewhere around the end of 1970
Egypt began saying that she would
accept the essence of the resolution:
that Egypt would formally recognize
Israel's right to exist if Israel would
withdraw from the occupied territories.
Israel, however, while she had indi-
cated that she would accept the reso-
lution as a basis for talks, has at the
same time made it very clear that she
will not agree to withdraw from the
Golan heights or all of Sinai. Given
this situation, Egypt has had no in-
clination to move into the direct nego—
tiations called for by Israel, which
would be a kind of de facto recogni-
tion of Israel, knowing that there is
no chance that Egyptians could gain
what they consider indispensable ~—
return of the Sinai to Egyptian sov-
ereignty. This frustration is probably
the principal reason for Egypt’s attack
across the Suez Canal,

Can ligypt be persuaded to change
her position and allow the Israelis to
remain sovereign on part of the Sinai,
thus making a compromise possible?
There seems not the slightest chance
of that. Might the Israelis be persuaded
to pull back to the 1007 line in return
for various guarantees of its secu-
rity? This may be possible—Israel was
ready for this just after the 1067 war
——provided the security guarantees are
much more impressive than has so far
been suggested. Israel, after all, does
have ample reason to question the
guarantees of the past, for they simply
have not worked.

Israel could be provided massive
security guarantees, even an overkill
of guarantees if you will, in order to
make the Israelis rest easy in the pull-
back approximately to the l967 bor-
ders. These guaranties could be on

four levels:

olsrael and her four neighbor Arab
states would sign a format peace treaty
delineating the exact permanent bor-
dcrs of Israel. (This would probably
turn out to be the single most im-
portant security guarantee, although
the Israelis in the present circum-
stances tend to demcan it for under-
standable historical reasons.)

OThe Sinai, the Golan heights, the
West Bank and the Gaza Strip would
all be demilitarized under a United
Nations peace force which could not
be removed except by the Security
Council with the concurrence of Israel
and the respective border state. Thus
there could not be a recurrence of
the 1967 situation in which Nasser
ordered the UN. Emergency Force
out of the Sinai. Further reassurance
to Israel of the effectiveness of the
peace-keeping force might be provided
by allowing unarmed Israeli repre-
sentatives freedom of movement in
the demilitarized areas to observe
compliance with the agreement.

0A ten-power treaty could be
drawn up to guarantee the security
of the agreed-upon borders. The signa-
tories would be Israel. the four sur-
rounding Arab states, Egypt, Iebanon,
.lordan and Syria. and the five mem-
bers of the Security Council. Britain.
China, l-‘rance, the Soviet l'nion and
the United States. The treaty would
provide that if there is an attack
across an established border around
Israel, in either direction, the \ictim

charter, providing for self-defense.
thus making it possible for defensive

action to be taken without being
stymied by a veto in the Security
Council.

OFinally, and perhaps most in»

between the US. and Israel \vould
state that, like the NATO Treaty, an

is the harm in allowing women to serve at
Masses. They have been doing it for four
years at the Newman Center. Have those

Masses been somehow “tainted" because .

of female assistance? The only harm done
that I can discern is to those little girls who
were told they can no longer serve. They
must ask a bewildered “why” they are
being forbidden this position. The question
may go unanswered. But if she gets the
answer, the result will be even more
destructive to her selfesteem, and will
produce a futile bitterness.

OF COURSE. this type of questioning
inevitably leads to why women are ex-
cluded from the priesthood. But from my
own perspective, to overcome that hurdle
would be too futile to even attempt at this
time. I intend to shoot for what is at least
tangible.

Whatcan we do? On'e avenue is to get the
standards laxed in the United States by the
bishops here. Secondly, we can strive to
get the decree itself changed. An appeal to
reason is a difficult thing when solely
facing tradition, but if intense pressure is
put upon the right people, something can
be done. If youo think the ruling is an
unfair one and would like to see it changed,

PERHAPS THIS is only a small matter,
and even a victory here will have no great
effect, but any step forward makes the
next a little easier for full equality of
women. If issues such as this are raised
again . and again, maybe some
enlightenment will come eventually. The
problem here is relevant to many
religions, not only the Catholic Church.
Most American religions do not have or do
not allow women participation in higher
functions, and a deep-lying discrimination
remains there still. Until this
discrimination is pulled of religion too,
social laws will never have a significant
effect on the attitudes of people.

Amato and Pettit campaign

Candidates spend $66,000

By (SAIL FITCH
and
BRl'CE W. SINGLETON

More than $66,000 has been
spent by the two candidates in the
Lexington mayoral race, ac-
cording to the Kentucky Registry
of Election Finance.

As of October 22, “Four for
Progress" (Foster Pettit, J.
Farra Van Meter, Bill Hoskins,
and Doc Ferrell) had spent
$31,788.86 for campaign costs.

”Citizens for Amato," on the
other hand, spent slightly more, a
total of $34,334 (this figure being
filed on October 19).

political candidates in the state.

Kentucky was the first state to
establish such an agency.

“We take the candidates’ word
on the reports pretty much unless
something comes up," said
Kenneth P. Vinsel, executive
director of the Kentucky Registry
of Election Finance.

“WE HAVE WAYS, of course,
of crosschecking these reports,"
he said.

“Before the establishment of
the Committee of Election
Finance," he continued, “there
was no neutral agency to
evaluate the candidates'
financial records. There is now a
Federal Election Committee."

He added the staff is too small
to do everything that needs to be
done.

“My secretaries check for
mistakes in math and other
obvious mistakes, but we need
somebody to audit reports at
random all the time," he said.

A CANDIDATE must file
several forms in order to conduct
his campaign legally. He must
declare his total receipts and
expenditures 10 days before the
election and 30 days prior. Any
individual contributions of over
$500 must also be reported.

Only two individuals who have
made contributions of over $500
have been reported. Both men,
(B.A.B. Widener, contributing
$1,000 and James Doyle con-
tributing $650) made their con-
tributions to “Citizens for
Amato."

Another receipt lists “85 total

contributors" giving $12,358. Five
unidentified contributors gave a
total of $1,965, this money
transferred from the “Draft
Amato Committee”.

IN THE SAME vein, the “Four
for Progress" Committee lists
receipts of $33,182 (their only
contribution of over $500) from
the “Four for Progress” rally.
This money did not have to be
itemized as to the size of in-
dividual contributions.

The Registry has asked the
Amato Committee for additional
information on “three fund
raising affairs," as to date, place
and time they were held, in-
formation not stated on the
committee financial report. The
“affairs" netted a total of $18,320.

“We need more information
about contributions and ex~
penditures from both candidates
especially from Citizens for
Amato," said a finance office
secretary.

ANOTHER REPORT that
must be filed is the one stating
the extent of campaign ad-
vertising financing. Up until the
filing date, “Four for Progress‘
had spent $13,756.16 for radio, TV
and newspaper advertising.

“Citizens for Amato”, through
their advertising agent,
Marketing Consultants, Inc.,
spent $13,594 in “media ad-
vertising." in addition to $1,236
for newspaper advertising, a
total of $14,830.

These figures represent totals
from reports filed over a week
ago. The final figures will be
much higher.

Broadcasting station is
multi-faceted Operation

By MARY AMIDON
Kernel Staff Writer

Best described as standardized
and abstract, WBKY, UK‘s
broadcasting station, is a multi-
faceted operation.

Most acclaimed for “After
Midnight", a progressive rock
program, the station also
features classical music, jazz,
documentaries and taped talk
shows.

“All Things Considered", an in-
depth network presentation, goes
into such topics as life in space,
poetry and world issues.

Another program entitled
“Options", presented three times
a week at 10 pm, is directed
toward timely subjects ranging

from consumer affairs to
women’s rights.
OTHER off-beat yet in-

tellectually stimulating pro-
grams include: “On the Path to
Higher Consciousness’, dealing
with psychology, philosophy,
medicine and spiritualism; “The
Course of Our Times,” historical

and political lecture series;.

“Speaking of Science Fiction",
discussion of themes and plots in
writing; and “Search for Mental
Health", discussing relevant
sexual roles and mental health
problems.

Fourteen students are em-
ployed by the station, few of
whom have any previous

background in the broadcasting
field. These students actively
participate as announcers,
producers and in the news ser-
vice.

Don Wheeler, WBKY director,
and his staff train the students.

WHEELER considers interest,
enthusiasm and an ability to
communicate as essential
criteria for working on the
station.

“Announcers are divided into
three classes,” he explained.
“Those cleared to do anything,
those cleared for only news and
those cleared for everything
except classical music.”

Announcing classical music is
the most difficult because the
announcer must be familiar with
foreign names and the music
itself. ”Most students are not
qualififed in this area,” Wheeler
added.

STUDENTS EDIT and produce
the 30-minute feature wrap-up of
national and international special
news.

Nick Martin, the only UK
student announcer on “After
Midnight” describes the format
of that show as “unlimited."

Emphasis is based 75 per cent
on newly-released albums and
obscure groups.

REQUESTS ARE accepted
Wednesdays. Feature album
night is set for Saturdays.
