Kyian Distribution

Distribution of the 1959 edition

Journalism Building, Gurney Norman. 1959 Kentuckian editor, announced yesterday. .
Books will be available today

may obtain their books beginning
Thursday.
Hours fcr distribution are 9 to
11:30 a.m. and 2 to 4 p.m. daily

during examination week will be

arranged later.
Perry Ashley, assistant director
of student publications, said graduating: seniors are expected to
present receipts for payment of
fees when they pick up their Ken-

tuckian.

Students who purchased books
during the advanced sale last
semester are asked to bring their

He made the
point that the
United States has never been at
war with either of the present regimes in East and West Germany.
Thus, he argued, peace treaties

as demanded by the Russians,
could not be a final peace treaty
with all Germany.- Herter strenly toU Gromyko:
"The constructive," proposals by
the United States wre brought to

the Soviet Union to fulfill its

the reunification of Germany and

May 8 election was fraudulent In
four of eight colleges. The meeting was called after the outgoing
congress' Executive Committee met
for four and one-ha- lf
hours Friday
to decide what action to take on
the matter.
Last night's meeting lasted more
than two hours, during which time
spokesmen for both parties engaged in heated debate over
would be
whether the
cither fair or legal. The spectators'
section was overflowing and many
visitors stood along the walls.
The Campus Party statement,
read to the congress and signed by
Jones and the other CP candidates
who won seats May 6, said:
We. as legally elected and installed members of the UK Student Congress, do hereby proclaim:
1. We did not acknowledge, condone, or participate in any fraudulent practices in the Student Congress election of May 6.
2. The irregularities were caused
by members of both parties, and
the number of illegal ballots could
not have been enough to affect the
outcome of the election.
3. The official
waiting period
passed with no protests and we
have already been installed
in
our respective offices.
4. The decision to have another
election was voted on by the executive and election committees of
last years Student. Congress, which
is no longer in office, and five
faculty members, who were not entitled to vote.
5. Because of nearness of final
exams and the absence of the
seniors, a new election would not
accurately represent student opinion.
6.

Because we are the winners,

the other party has attempted to
attribute the blame to us. and in
another election we would be

running under a stigma for which
we were not responsible.
7. To hold another election would
be violating the constitution
of
Student Congress and the election
laws of the state of Kentucky.
8. Due to the above stated facts,
.
and on the advice of our legal
counsel, we decline to run in, or
recognize the validity of 'another
election.

Setzer, Maitland Rice. Robert Wallace. Frank A. Schollett, Richard
B. Watkins, Philip B. Austin, Diane

After the congress meeting adjourned at 9:25 p. m., Jones. Dean
of Men Leslie L. Martin. Dean of
Women Doris M. Seward, former
President Pete Perlman and Vice
President-eleFrank Schollett met
with University President Frank O.
Dickey at Maxwell Place. The out
come of that meeting or its pur- pose were unknown as the Kernel
went to press at 11 . m.
An amendment to exclude the
Law School from the new election
was introduced by Law Rep. Bob
Manchester, and failed after lengthy discussion. Manchester was one
of the main speakers against holding a new election, all of whom
ct

ef

emphasized that it was not provided for under state law and that
it would be unfair to the new
congressmen already Installed.
Speaking for the move to exclude
the Law School, John T. Bondu-ran- t,
a law student, said:
"There is no evidence of fraud in
this college. Why should we have"
to vote again? This is like cutting
off the head of a person who has
cancer in his arm."
Rebuttal to this argument came
from Dr. Gifford Blyton. SO
parliamentarian, who said that to
exclude the Law School would be
"to isolate a part from the whole,"
which could not be done.
proDefending the
posal, Dick Roberts, former Judiciary Committee chairman, said:
"The constitution calls for
an
election, and this implies that
electoral procedures are to be followed." Since they were not followed, he
continued, and since
proof existed that fraud had occurred, an "election" had not taken
new-electi-

on

place.

After speakers had said that the
Kernel's evidence was not concrete
proof of fraud, and following an
allegation by Bill Kinkead that
the Kernel "has been good at stirring up storms all year long," SO
Faculty Advisor Dr. Ben W. Black
said:
"No one has denied that fraud
exists, and no one has been able
to refute these charges."
He said it appeared that "neither
party and no polling places abided
by the election regulations." and
that he had "never heard of more
disgraceful procedure" than the
violations charged by the Kernel.
Referring to the Kernel's evidence as "insufficient and incompetent" and "too weak" to cause
a new election, Manchester said
the paper had violated Kentucky
Revised Statutes 117 and 171 in
removing the voting lists from the
SC office to examine them, and
that any charges of fraud would
not be valid.
The Kernel editor later told the
congress that the lists were obtained by a reporter who removed
them from the office with the
secretary's permission and without
knowing that public- - records must
be viewed in the place where they
are filed.
Arts and Sciences Rep. Garryl
Sipple, speaking of the amount of
of
fraud brought to light and
whether it was sufficient to cause
a new election, said:
"I once knew a man who committed a murder; it wasn't a big
murder Just a little one." He
added that he won his seat May
6 by only three votes, but that ho
was willing to run again.
"It seems funny," he commented,
"that seemingly disinterested parties are dominating the floor tonight and that no candidates involved in the election are speaking." This statement came earlier
in the meeting, when discussion
was centered around Law School
speakers and Roberts and
I want my' vote to count M
much as the next man's." Sipple
said, ''and I therefore urge Student Congress members to think
for themselves whether they think
the election was a- fraud.
Before the voting took place,
Roberts and Bondurant urged the

* The Election Situation
An hour before the Kernel went
to press last night, the furor and complex ramifications that followed our
story on the recent election fraud had
leached a point where writing an editorial on the subject for today's paper
was nearly impossible. We began several, but each was interrupted by a
telephone call or the arrival of a reporter with news that made our comments no longer applicable.

We had to hold our press deadlines
three hours beyond normal time last
night in order to get the story on the

Student Congress meeting, and this

Readers Comment On SC Election Fraud
Whose Grapes Are Sour?

A

To The Editor:
In answer to the "Honorable" John
T. Bondurant's letter in the Friday
Kernel, I would like to call to his attention that he, as a law student, has
little or no room to talk about "sour
grapes." What, I would like to ask
him, was his college's exhibition on
the day preceding the election if not
a colossal case of "sour grapes?"
I wonder how many students
realize just what precipitated this
rally. Bob Wainscott was more than
justified in his remarks directed to the
law students in that SC meeting. The
situation was as follows:
A problem arose that was not adequately provided for in the SC con-

stitution. Whayne Priest informed the
roup that the constitution did not
allow a write-i- n
candidate to take
ffice. With this announcement, these
illustrious gentlemen, who propose to
interpret our country's laws,
his and boo! Is this haw
a democratic group takes an opinion
not agreeable to it? At this point, Mr.
Wainscott, attempting to restore
order, obtained the floor and asked if
I he visitors
would please remember
that they were in the presence of
ladies and gentlemen and to conduct
pro-teede.-

dto

themselves accordingly.
So, in retaliation to this gross insult
by Messrs. Priest and Wainscott, the
rally was organized. This, I presume,
was to restore their (the law students') deflated egos.
So face up to reality, boys, and
practice what you preach.
A Discusted Coed

Jones, hardly warrant a new election.

Stacked Deck?

Henry

To The Editor:
Word has just reached this institution pertaining to a proclamation
issued by a committee headed' by
Dean Martin and a group of soreheads, calling for a new election.
I recently (took) part in the

rally held on the
portals of our Law School. I must
say . . . that when I called for a stacked
deck to be shuffled and cut, little did
I actually realize the truth and accuracy of my plea.
Your (editorial) deploring the activities of the election . . . has one
notable fallacy. You exclaimed that
without a new election, confidence in
Student Congress would be utterly
destroyed on campus. By the same
token, if a new election is held pursuant to the command issued by this
committeea committee dominated
by the University administration,
Wainscott and his political cohorts
any respect, confidence, assurance or
dignity which has been enjoyed in the
past will surely pass by the boards.
Such a precedent would create instability in all future elections. It
would only be necessary for an aspirant to assure the casting of a few
fraudulent ballots and then, if defeated, raise the hue and cry
FRAUD!! FRAUD!!!
It is quite apparent that this deciis contrary to the will of the
sion
students. The few instances of fraud

involved, compared with the overwhelming mandate given to Taylor,

We're All Nuts
number of interesting facts have
been uncovered by the recent squabble between Mrs. Clare Booth Luce
and Sen. Wayne Morse.
The American public now knows
that Sen. Morse was kicked in the
head by a mare named Missie. We
also have information concerning Mrs.
Luce's psychiatric record-- of which

there

is none.

But more important, we have seen
tow two supposedly learned American leaders have fallen into a game
of name-callin- g
that would rival the
lids on the corner.
The matter appears to be one of
conflicting personal interests. The results seem to be the loss, at least temporarily, of a capable diplomat with
a fine record of service.
Sen. Morse has succeeded in ousting Mrs. Luce from the position of
ambassador to Brazil despite the vote
of the Senate in her favor.

The Mysterious Recount
To The Editor:
In last fall's election for two SC

Engineering representatives, there
was a tie between two candidates on
the first count. In the subsequent recounting, the Students' Party candidate received majorities of not more
than five votes on the first three tallies. However, on the fourth count,
which was delayed, the Students'
Party candidate received a majority
substantial enough to warrant a
speedy concession from his opponent.
No definite reason was given for
either the delay before the fourth recount or the sudden majority which
the Students' Party candidate piled
up. Where were the KerncTs peerless
fraud hunters then?
Isn't it rather strange that the Kernel should emit cries of "fraud" the
first time that the Campus Party
gains control of SC?
Jim Irvine
(Ballots are counted by a committee composed of representatives from
both parties, and recounts, invoking
human error, are not unusual. We investigated the election because of
numerous statements from persons
tvho saw ballots being stuffed. The
Kernel supported neither candidate
in the election and did not attempt
to implicate cither party in the fraud.
Our "cries" came only after ttc had
compiled concrete and demonstrable
evidence of fraud.--T- he

A Reputation At Stake

She did this despite the commendations of President Eisenhower, the

These factors, plus the support of
many ' important journalists who are
sympathetic with Mrs. Luce, have
put Sen. Morse out on a long, long
limb. It is a position he well deserves.
Concerning the affair as a whole,

I ask you,
though: has unbiased,
consideration been given every aspect of it? No, I doubt it. Many of
you have associated the defeat of Bob

ballott stuffing of the Campus Party.
I feel that each party contributed
equally and unnecessarily to
the
amount of stuffing that took place. I

think Taylor Jones was the favorite
of the student body, and I feel that
his election, in spite of the unscrupulous tactics that took place, was

inevitable.
Many of you feel that the election
of Jones was a direct result of these
tactics, and that he was directly associated with them. I don't think he
was. What's more, I don't think he
should be associated, consciously or
unconsciously, with it. I feel that to
do this would not only slander his
reputation more unjustly, but would
possibly deprive the Student Congress of its rightful president.

A Defense Of Mediocrity
To The Editor:
congratulate Stan

I would like to

Carr on his stirring defense of medio- crity ("A DJ Defends Radio." May 13
Kernel). The problem unfortunately
is not confined to Lexington, but exists as a national dilemma.
It has been my experience to find
that the rarer forms of muiic (jazz,
classical) somehow are always programmed for Sunday afternoons, or at
one o'clock in the morning, whereas
and popular music are
programmed all day long, seven days
a week. The crime of popular music
is that it has virtually driven all other
music from the air! With a state of
affairs as this, how can young people
even Teally be aware that there arc
different types of music? The effect of
popular music upon the UK campus
can readily be seen, especially among
the freshman and sophomore classes.
They still "dig" Ricky Nelson and his
crew. And this goes on and on and
on. Jazz to them is Tommy Dorsey's
or anybody
Tea for Two
making noise
fits nicely into the pattern here).
Local radio stations do not even
give youth a chance; they cut out the
very vitals of youth by their nonsense.
Where does'a solution lie? Perhaps in
giving equal time to all types of
music? Perhaps the local stations
could program other types of music
where they now program
and vice versa? This would, if
anything,- be anything, be an interesting experiment.
