Sturdy stands, reinforced concrete make
destruction of McLean Stadium difficult

By STEWART TRISIJ-IR
Kernel Staff Writer

Things are looking up at (‘ommonwcalth
Stadium. where. in two weeks. UK will
begin its second home season. But on the
other side of campus. McLean Stadium is
going down.

A $5~million fine arts building will take
its place.

()‘Rourke Wrecking (‘ompany doesn‘t
expect to complete the demolition until
Nov. 1.

According to George I“. Spragens in the
office of design and construction. the
company's 372.3189 bid to tear down the
stadium is about $45,000 less than it cost to
build the original six sections in 1924.

THE ”EMULI'I‘IUN crew's objective is
to get the structure down and then
concentrate on hauling away the debris.
Spragens said. Sturdy stands. built Wllh

difficult. Nevertheless, the wrecking ball
was chosen over explosives as a safety

measure. since the structure is so close to
other campus buildings.

Last week. in what could be referred to
as the first “accident". a crane apparently
toppled over and crushed a fence on the
south side of the stadium. Joseph Burch.
assistant to the vice president of business
affairs. said. as far as he knew. “that was
a rave instance" of a threat to public
safety. He had no details of the accident.

When the contractor took the job. he was
prepared for such incidents. including
equipment failure and finding a place to
dump the thousands of tons of concrete-
encrusled steel. But one problem he
probably wasn't prepared to encounter
was students and others trespassing to
collect a memento of the old stadium

Ill'ltt’ll S.\Il) this is not so much a
problem asa hazard. It is the contractor ‘s
responsdiility to keep the area clear and
determine what goes out of the stadium in
the hands of collectors t‘am pus police are
instructed to keep an eye out for intruders.
but at no time IS there a guard posted

Over the years many persons have been
confused on the stadium's name.

The actual gridiron was called Stoll
Field. named after Judge Richard C. Stoll.
who donated the land to the University.
The field. named in 1916. first served as a
private pasture for t‘niversity President
James K. Patterson‘s herd of cows. The
seating structure is named for a UK
player. Price lnnes McLean. who died of
injuries suffered in a game in 1923.

ORIGINALLY. plans called for a U»

only ten of the proposed 16»sections were
ever built. Six were ready the first year.
and the other four were added around the
time of World War II.

There was only one sellout game that
first year. with (‘entre College. when 12.000
tickets were sold for 10.000 seats. But
according to a stadium committee report
published in 192:3. the fans had no trouble

Crime slaslislics

By NICHOLAS VON HOFFMAN

WASHINGTON — It may be a
bear market on Wall Street but
it‘s a bull market on crime. The
latest statistics are up again.

William Saxbe to say that. “We
have suffered a severe setback in
the concerted effort to alter one
of the nation‘s most agonizing

convincing chain of causality.
Doubtless these elements and
others are contributory. but we
must begin to look elsewhere for
other causes of the epidemic of

ONE PLACE meriting
attention is the research of Dr.
Ben F. Feingold. chief emeritus.

studying hyperkinetic children.

Hyperkinesis is a relatively

Because of the difficulty of

figures are not available. but it
appears that literally hundreds of
thousands of children are being
treated for the disorder.

The standard treatment is
large doses of amphetamines and
tranquilizers. which'the young
patients have to be kept on for
years. This massive use of
behavior-controlling drugs has
elicited considerable criticism
from many quarters.‘including
this one.

Feingold has attacked the
problem another way. Instead of
administering psychoactive
drugs to control children‘s
behavior. he asked himself

result was that within one week

It doesn‘t take much to bring
them back. however, Feingold

l’niversity of Kentucky students have money, and they
spend it.

About $13.9 million is spent annually by UK students in
the Lexington community according to the study. “The
Economic Impact of the University of Kentucky on the
Lexington Metropolitan Area”.

The study was conducted in 1972 by Herbert L. Lyon,
James H. Donnelly. Jr. and J. Terrence McMahon,
(‘ollege of Business and Economics. University of
Kentucky.

It was averaged that each student spends $568 for
miscellaneous purposes not including books and supplies.
The reason for concern, however, is not that the student
spends vast sums of money, it‘s rather that students (all
consumers tor that ma ttert far too often make purchases
to one store while just down the street the same product
sells at a substantially lower price.

WHY DO STl‘DENTS continue to support merchants of
high-priced wares? Well, maybe they’re so financially
well—off that the added expense doesn‘t bother them, or
perhaps they're too lazy to walk, ride a bicycle or bus to
the store of the cheaper prices. I have no concern for those
who fall under these two categories; however, there are
always those students who don‘t realize there are cheaper
prices to be found for the same exact product. Here is
\i here this article's concern lies.

W

Last June I paid a friendly visit to Playback in Fayette
Mall. Its main concern is stereo equipment with a
not—so-complete line of albums, radios and other
miscellaneous items.

“How much is your AR turntable?“ I ask the salesman.

"$105," he replies.

“Do you have any used?"

“That is used. It’s a demonstration model.“

“$105 is not a used price though.“

"That’s a $160 turntable and I’ll give it to you for $105.
That‘s a $55 savings."

TENSION WAS in the air now with the salesman
declaring his price was a great bargain and I
disagreeing.

“You cant beat that price with a stick!"

“No, but I can beat it with a pencil!"

”Listen, buddy," he says to me, “you‘re the reason this
world‘s the way it is!" (I thought that should have been
my line).

“If you‘re not going to buy it, just get out of the store!“ I
left the store.

THE FOLLOWING weekend I happened to be in
Cincinnati and stopped off at Swallen’s, a large warehouse
type store. There I was informed that the turntable model
the Playback saint tried to sell me was a discontinued
model. They don’t make it anymore ~— it’s obsolete, and
that guy wanted to sell it to me for $105! And, for how
much was Swallen’s selling the new model? $120 -—— Ijust
bought myself a turntable.

That‘s just an example of a price confrontation I ran
into. and fortunately I didn’t get stuck. But actually,
Lexington area album prices is the main topic of this
article, so I feel I should include the procedure used in
gathering and comparing the costs. First, Billboard’s
Aug. 31 listing of the top 10 best selling albums was used
for the basis of comparision. Next, prices were recorded,
and means of price determination was obtained from the
stores. No sale prices were taken, merely their everyday
prices.

It was found that buyers of albums at the two malls.
Fayette and Turfland, nearly always lose in the money
game. Variety Records in Turfland Mall has the honor of
carrying the highest priced records of the lO-store study.
Their prices don’t stop short of the suggested list price in
Billboard -— $6.98 each for eight of the top 10 listed albums.
Variety averages $6.98 per album with the Beach Boys‘
endless Summer selling for $7.98 —- excatly $1.00 above
suggested list price. No wonder other record stores said
their prices were less than those at Variety.

McALPINS on the otherhand, averages $5.41 per album
with $5.47 being the most frequent price for single albums
(seven of the 10 bear this price). Their selection is fairly
good. It may not match Varety
but it may be worth the short walk down the hall to check.
That is, if you’re insistent upon buying at the mall.

It wouldn‘t be fair for me to pass by Grant‘s whose vast
selection consisted of three albums from the top 10. These
three did carry the price of $4.99 each, including the Beach
Boys‘ Endless Summer.

Now, let's take a trip to the Fayette Mall. It's a newer
and prettier mall so they must have better prices, right?
Wrong! Playback averages $5.70 per album with $5.79
being their most grequent price. And, their competitor.
Camelot Music, averages $6.09 with the mode (most
frequent price) being $6.19. Great competition, huh?

That covers the two malls. folks. My wallet feels lighter
already, but at least I won‘t have to carry all those heavy
greenbacks. Maybe I can find some relief downtown. Oh
no, depression sets in again at 130 E. Main. Davidson‘s
Record Shop. $5.98 is their average and $5.98 the mode.
Barney Miller's is much better with an average price of
$5.21 —~ nine of the 10 costing $5.29. In fact, Barney
Millers was number three for the best buy.

IF YOU STRETCH the term a little, competitive could
be applied to the campus area stores. Kennedy’s Book
Store and Sound 2000 average $5.30 and $5.29 respectively
with equal modes of $5.49.

The Most Humanitarian Award, deservingly or not.
goes to Wallace’s Book Store and Muzik Maze, a new shop
on Limestone around the corner from Joe Bologna's. If
you can beat the confusion in Wallace's, you'll find an
average of $4.99 per album with an equivalent mode.

Muzik Maze matches or even beats Wallace‘s, however.
It emphasizes the older records while still carrying new
releases. These new releases are carried at $4.76 each
while the older albums price at $4.99. When the new
become the older releases is up to the discretion of the
store‘s owner. This is shown as the 10 albums being
studied were split 50—50 between these two prices with an
average price being $4.88.

So. this Muzik Maze shop carries the best record prices
in Lexington, huh? Yep, and now that you‘ve heard of it
you can add it to your other choices as to where to buy
your next album.

THERE ARE a few reasons as to why the record prices
are so high as they are. Someone created a vinyl shortage
in actuality or falsehood. but it‘s there. That's about a 50-
cent increase over last year when there was no shortage.
Also. all these stores order through distributors and not
from the record companies. themselves. Here the
consumer pays another good percentage to the distributor
for his handling of the product.

The stores buy through distributors for the convenience.
Using Playback as another example. it has nothing to do
with its record department. Its distributor. Musical Isle,
sends a man who displays the prepriced records he brings
with him. He takes inventory and even brings the “listed -
our price-card“ which is set up in the store.

Whatever happened to that great Capitalism cohort of
competition? Sure, these chain stores and distributorships
are slick and convenient. and with their financial backing
and ability to buy at bulk it seems that their prices would
be lower than the individual buyers‘. But with the chain
owners living hundreds of miles away and prepriced
shipments and all. the competition factor seems
somewhat decayed.

There‘s a $210 price difference on the same album
found in the Lexington area and in one case a $3.00 gap.
Can you imagine. a $3.00 price difference on the same
album! All this means that the consumer has a choice—to
continue supporting these high-priced places or to bring
them back to a more competitive market by buying from
the stores of the cheaper price.

Wholesale prices
rise 3.9 per cent

WASHINGTON (AP) — The
government reported Thursday
that wholesale prices rose 3.9 per
cent in August, the second
biggest monthly jump in 28 years
and an indication that inflation
may be worsening.

Last month's increase pushed
wholesale prices 17.8 per cent
higher than a year ago and
further dimmed the Ford admin-
istration‘s prospects for any
significant easing of inflation this
year.

Administration economists
indicated they are again revising
their forecasts.

White House economics coun-
selor Kenneth Rush said recent
predictions that inflation might
decline to about 8 per cent -—
from the current 11 per cent for
consumer prices ~77 probably will

Ethopian Emperor
overthrown, iailed

ADDIS ABABA. Ethiopa (AP)
w Military reformers overthrew
Emperor Haile Selassie on
Thursday in a bloodless coup and
placed him under arrest.

Witnesses said the 82-yearold
Selassie. the world‘s oldest and
longest reigning monarch. ar—
gued with soldiers who took him
from his palace to a ramshackle
military building near the
railroad tracks.

“l’m not going." they quoted
him as saying. But the frail
emperor. once adored by his 26
million subjects as the Lion of
Judah and l-Ilect of God. was put
in the back seat of a blue
Volkswagen police car and
carted away.

The coup climaxed a six-month
campaign by the soldier-rebels
who promised democratic elec-
tions and land reform after 58
years of feudal rule.
