By LEE BECKER

Three candidates for mayor and 13 candidates for
the four commissioner seats will take their cases before
the voters Saturday in Lexington's non—partisan pri-
maries.

Their number will be trimmed to two candidates
for each of the five posts by the 6 pm. poll closing
time.

The candidates can be divided into three groups:
the ”ins," the ”organized outs," and the independents.

The ”in" group is headed by City Commissioner
and Mayor ‘pro tem Charles Wylie who is running
for mayor.

With Mr. Wylie are two present commissioners
Harry Sykes and Fred Keller. Other commissioner can-
didates are joe Graves, Lexington businessman and
present Mayor Fred Fugazzi.

THE KENTUCKY

KERNEL

The South’s Outstanding College Daily

Friday, Sept. 22, 1967

University of Kentucky, Lexington

Commissioner Tom Underwood, a candidate for re-
election, heads the opposition slate.

Mr. Underwood is not supporting a mayorial can-
didate, but has chosen Dr. Al Chrouser, dentist, Ray
Boggs, engineer, and Frank McKinley, also an engi-
neer, for running mates for the other commissioner
seats.

If the ticket is elected, Underwood said he feels
he can control the city policy by majority vote on
commission decisions.

Independents Donald Duckworth, insurance agent
and aerial traffic reporter, and Walter Stone, 3 political
unknown, are opposing Wylie in the mayor's race.

Independent commissioner candidates are attorney
David L. Van Horn, Carl Moses, insurance agent,
Alfred Ruh, contractor, Leonard "Babe" Ray, insur-
ance agent, and Joseph B. Montgomery, restaurant
owner.

Student Government Rejects

Cook’s Ombudsman Plan

Student Government Tuesday
night defeated 11-9 a motion to
establish an ombudsman.

Phil Patton, speaking for the
minority of the rules committee,
said there is a need for

The mayor will receive $7,200 a year and the com-
missioners $6,000 a year starting this year. Past fi-
gures were $3,500 and $2,500.

Most of the candidates not on the "in" team have
geared their campaign toward running against that
group.

”The public is ready for a total change in Les-
ington city government from domination by the Lex-
ington Herald-Leader faction that holds it." Mr. Un-
derwood an attorney, said.

”Our method of accomplishing this is to manage
the city through the election of our four commission-
ers.

None of Mr. Underwood's three running mates has
sought office before this election.

The action represented the
second defeat for President Steve
Cook's No. 1 project in as many
council meetings.

The action was taken after
the rules committee reported un-

manager, to establish the om-
budsman as a legal position.

Rep. Allen Youngman, speak—
ing for the majority of the five
man rules committee, said ”the
committee is not denying that
the need exists for an ombuds-
man," but was questioning
Cook's way of meeting those

needs.

"One student cannot fill all
the gaps existing in the Uni-
versity system," he said.

"It is hollow to advocate a
power position for which the
power is not likely to be forth-
coming."

Want 'Staff Ombudsman'

“We propose establishing a
staff ombudsman to achieve the
service effectively and not just
pay lip service to goals."

The committee recommended
that the ”staff ombudsman" be
a UK administrator who would
be responsible to the administra-
tion.

 

body who understands the prob—
lems of the students. Most of
you are Greeks, and Creeks know
a person in the assembly to go
to, but a vast majority of stu-
dents are not Creeks.

”Quite a few people on this
campus don't even own a pair
ofweejuns," he said.

Patton said it was ”interest-
ing to note that the same people
who have taken a position in
support of putting a student on
the Board of Trustees to repre-
sent the student interest now
want to have an administratOr
to represent the student on cam
pus.

Patton was referring to sup-
port expressed in the last Stu—
dent Governrnent election calling
for such a student position.

Curry Opposes Proposal

0. K. Curry, speaker of the
assembly, relinquished his chair
to speak against the motion.

"Student Government repre-
sentatives sit in as representa-
tives for the student," he said.
"That is what they were elected
for."

Curry also said he ”doesn't
feel like an ombudsman will know
the intrinsic details of his job
unless he is a member of the
administration. ' '

Cook had asked the assem—
bly to approve his appointment
of Ellis Bullock and Bob Valen—
tine as ombudsman at the last
meeting two weeks ago.

The approval was defeated
by a tie vote.

.‘ ' Cook maintained that he did
not need the approval of the as—
sembly and the appointment held.

Cook said after the meeting
last night that the tie vote did
not mean that the appointments
must be rescinded, because the
constitution requires a majority
to overrule the president.

Cook: Situation Unchanged

Cook also maintains that
“they have never really voted to
overmle the formation of the
position," but merely voted on
the appointments. '

For those two reasons, he

assembly to take the necessary
steps next week to rescind the
appointment and to abolish the
position.

He said he would keep the
two men as ”personal advisors"
should this happen.

Bullock said earlier Thursday
that he doubted the assembly
would approve the program.

In other action, the assembly
passed unanimously a motion to
require that each representative
spend at least one hour in the
Student Covemment office.

The mles committee also
made available two different pro-
posals for overhauling the struc-
ture of Student Covemment re-
presentation.

The rules were not discussed,
however, because the committee
had not finished reporting on the
bills, and did not make its re—
commendation.

Murrell Jailed; Claims He
Was ‘Strangled’ By Police

By DICK KIMMINS

A University student is claiming he was denied his statutory
rights after his recent trial and conviction for a traffic violation.

William Murrell, 20, of 24
Eastway Drive and a physics
major, was fined $150 in traffic-

Icourt Tuesday by judge: Walter

Tackett. Murrell could not pay
the fine, was held in the hold-
over room of the Police Depart-
ment and was being transferred
to the City Workhouse when he
was “jumped from behind,
tackled at the knees and
strangled till I passed out."

Murrell said be resisted vio-
lently because he was denied
the one phone call given to
each prisoner when he is ar-
rested.

Murrell was apprehended on

Nicholasville Road while driv—
ing a motorcycle with no hands.
He had no operator’s license.
Judge Tackett fined him $50
on the reckless driving charge.
and $100 on the charge of
operating a motor vehicle with-
out a license.

During his trial, Murrell said
“I do not mean to be presump-
tuous, but it is absurd that a
person with a driver's license
obtained by an automobile driv-
ing test should have recip‘ocal
rights on a motorcycle." (\lur-

SC Presidency Is Game’s Name,
Players Must Be ‘White, Greek’

By CONNIE BRITTAIN

The game starts with the
year's first Student Covemment
meeting. The players usually
are white, male and Creek.

The winner gets a $500-a-
year job as Student Covemment
president, but he must con-
tinue to play the game—politics
—for the next nine months while
the cycle starts again within the
assembly.

This, says Steve Cook, is how
to become SC president.

Cook says there aren’t enough
Negroes on campus to effective-
ly back a candidate and this
small number isn’t oragnized.
And, he adds, although women
supposedly have equal oppor-
tunity, they actually are still
discriminated against in politics.

H o w e v e r, Marsha Fields
proved last year it could be
done by being elected vice pres—
ident of the assembly.

Age is not a barrier, but the
office generally is reserved for
a senior due to his greater ex-
perience and wider campus
reputation.

Desire for Personal Contact

Cook feels the primary strat-
agem is the candidate’s ability
to talk spontaneously with any-
one while still using diplomacy
and administrative ability.

“Also connected with this is
the desire for personal contact
with fellow students,” the pres-
ent SG chief said.

Ability and experience also
are of prime concern. Such
former positions as high school
student council president and
as Student Government repre-
sentative are helpful, Cook said.

Time. money and support
play a big part in the campaign.
Cook spends an average of six
hours a day on Student Cov-

emment affairs, and says or-
ganization is of the essence if
a person is to maintain the re-
quired 2.3 grade-point standing.

Organization is Most Important

Campaign expenses average
more than $200, which the
position’s salary meagerly
covers.

Organized support is the
third element of the triangle,
and this is where Greeks have
their greatest advantage. Fra-
temities contribute up to $125
to the campaign fund and pro-
vide a willing work force.

Once the candidate recog-
nizes the. basic requirements,
two standing Student Covem-
ment policies must be upheld-
to be as liberal a representative
of the students as possible and
to maintain a conservative stu-
dent voice to the administration,

that neither North Vietnam nor

“In any event,” said Mr.

Mr. Goldberg outlined a five-

which included:

0 A complete cease-fire on a
specified date.

0 No military forces in either
North or South Vietnam except
those controlled by the in-
dividual governments.

0 Full respect for the inter-

Mrs. Bradshaw Enjoys ‘People’

By OSSILYN ELLIS
Women’s Editor

It has been said that behind
every successful man there's a
woman. As for UK head foot-
ball coach Charlie Bradshaw,
the statement is particularly ap-
plicable.

In a recent interview, Mrs.
Bradshaw conveyed her feelings
about what it is really like to
be the wife of a man constantly
in the public eye.

What type of entertaining
does her position entail?

“We have a lot of people
come into our home for small
dinner parties and such," said
Mrs. Bradshaw, “but we do not
entertain on a large scale.

“My husband and I enjoy
having his boys and their
families in our home. This en-
ables us to get to know them

MRS. CHARLIE BRADSHAW
In the Public Eye

 

 

and understand them better.
However, we prefer small
gatherings and do not entertain
too many people at one time.”

How does she feel about hav-
ing to meet a great number of
new people each season?

“We do meet a great deal of
people, different coaches who
come into town to observe prac-
tice here, and so forth," she said.
“In this business you have to
see and meet a lot of people
all the time; consequently, you
have to enjoy people. We both
like people and derive a great
deal of pleasure from meeting

them," she said.

What are Mrs. Bradshaw's
personal feelings about the
game?

“We look at it differently from
the average fan," she said, “be-
cause we are trying to do more
than just win the game.

"We believe ,that the things
that go into, the game are prin-
ciples that will carry over for

these young men the rest of '

their lives. It's a dedicated
thing; they love it and get a
lot out of it bv the hard work
they put into it. We hope these
principles will enable these
voung men to face problems in
later Iife,‘day by day," she said.

Does constantly being in the

"In general, it has been most
gratifying. However, it's some-
times hard for our voung daugh-
ter, Leigh, to understand criti-
cism bv other children of her
father,” she said. “We know,
though. that she will under-
stand better as she gets older.
This is a common experience
for anyone in any aspect of
public work.”

Would Mrs. Bradshaw have
any qualms about her son fol-
lowing in his father’s footsteps?

“Well, for right now, we don't
have that to worry about," she
smiled. “Charles is only three.
But. if he should wish to do so,
I feel it would be a good life
for him.

“The rewards of coaching are

said, ‘but in seeing these young

 Let The'Student Body Decide

WHEN in the course of University events, it beobmes necessary
for Student Government to dissolve the political bands which have
connected them with students, and to assume among the powers cf
the University, a separate and equal station in-bed-with the Admin-
istration, a decent respect to the opinions of students requires that
they should declare the causes which impel them to sell the student
body out.

First they refuse to delegate responsibility to a student ombudsman.
Then they propose to delegate responsibility to an Administration
ombudsman.

The Kernel holds these .truths to be self evident, that Student!

Government was instituted among students, deriving its just powers
from the consent of the governed students, that whenever any form
of Student Covemment becomes destructive of government by the
students, of the students, and for the students it is the right and duty
of the students to alter, abolish or ignore it, and to institute new gov- _
ernment, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its
powers in such form, as to students shall seem most likely to effect
their safety and happiness.

The action of Student Covemment last night defeating the proposed
student ombudsman and counter proposing an embrace between Stu-
dent Government and the Administration is more than an honest
difference of opinion between The Kernel and the representatives.

It is a sell-out of their representative responsibility which consti-
tutes a clear and present danger of the erosion of Student Govern-
ment’s independence from the Administration.

Oliver Kash Curry, unannounced candidate for president of Student
Government in 1968-69, says “an ombudsman will not know the in-
trinsic details of his job unless he is a member of the Administration."

Representatives asserted that a need exists for an ombudsman but
said “that one student cannot fill all the gaps existing in the Univer-
sity system.” In their finite wisdom the rules committee recommended
that a dinosauric schizophrenic member of the Administration, paid by
the Administration, loyal-or-else to the Administration, be given the
authority to represent student needs and grievances in a vigorous,
forthright manner, against the source of his paycheck, biting the hand
that feeds.

Sounds like the parable of one man and two masters.

Any Student Covemment proposal which amounts to getting-in-bed
with the Administration, thereby perverting the concept of government
by students, for students, of students into a’tiangerously hybrid part-
nership of students and Administration, can only constitute an open
and notorious sell out of their responsibility.

No one who voted in last spring's election gave consent to a stu-
dent government delegation of responsibility to the University Admin-
istration.

Before this dangerous alliance is consummated, Steve Cook, presi-
dent of Student Covemment, should submit the question to a student
referendum.

To The Editor of The Kernel

I would first like to say that I am in
complete agreement with The Kernel's
editorial of September 19, concerningcen-
sorship of comments on The Great Wall.
I agree that The Great Wall should be a
place where all students can expressthem—
selves without fear of censorship by the
University or any other organization.

Recently, the Young Kentuckians for
Nunn, as well as Students for Ward, put
up signs on The Great Wall supporting
their respective candidates. The YKN were
very careful, as everyone observed, not to
cover-up or deface a single Ward-Ford
sign. Yet, within two days after the NUNN
signs appeared on The Great Wall, the
Ward-Ford, Kennedy-Fulbright support-

ers had taken-down, tom-up, painted-
over, or otherwise defaced all of their
opposition's signs.

There is something basically wrong
when any group goes out of its way to
keep the public from hearing the views
of the opposition. I don’t know whether
it stems from a fear of the truth or from
the fact that these people’s minds are so
small and closed that they must obliter—
ate anything -that does not agree with
them. I do know that if the Kennedy—
Fulbright, Ward-Ford people feel that the
only way they can win this election is by
blotting out any voice of opposition, then
they too realize it is Time for a Change.

‘Inevitable,’ The Freshman Cried
As They Slipped Through The Wall

By DAVID HOLWERK

The young man sitting at the bar
was visibly shaking. He gulped down two
quick beers as he continually watched
the mirror in front of him for any strange
movements behind him. He smoked one
cigarette after another, ordered four more
beers, and drank them in rapid succes-
sion. He leaned heavily on his hands and
stared off into space.

He ordered three more beers which he
gulped without coming up for air. In a
few minutes he got up and went into
the restroom.

I had a beer and waited for him to
come out.

When a half hour had passed, and I
had had a few more myself, I decided to
go in and see what had happened to him,
spurred on I suppose by the inexplicable
love of one drunk for another.

He was lying in a heap in the middle
of the floor, contracted into a ball and
moaning in a low voice. ”It'll be OK
fella," I said soothingly. ”Just stick your
fingers down your throat."

Nobody Believes Me

He did not respond to this at all, so
I reached down and tried to pick him up.
But he was heavier than he looked, and
in my state the added weight was too
much. I tumbled over on top of him.

I'm sure we must have been a sight
there on the floor of the john, but I'm
really not sure, because the fella under-
neath me gave a groan and shoved me
off immediately. “Nobody believes me,”
he moaned.

“Believes what?" I asked. And, to.the
best of my recollection, this is the story
he told me: ,

“I was walking to the Student Center
from the Library on I guess it was last
Wednesday night. It was a warm night—
full moon, soft breeze, lots of people
lying in the grass—a good night.

“It was about a quarter 'til ten, I
remember, because I wanted to get to
the grill before it closed. Anyway I was
walking through the Bot Gardens when I
heard this noise. It seemed to come from
behind the Wall, sort of a soft moaning.

They Were Misty And Unsolid

"Then just as I watched these figures
seemed to come right through the Wall,
right between a Ward sign and a Nunn
poster. There were two columns of these
people, all looking like students, andthey

were all misty and kind of unsolid look-
ing. Some of them had folders under their
arms and each column had a leader—
one a boy, one a girl—who seemed to
be a leader. They came at me, calling
my name. They wanted me to join them.
I don) know what they were, but they
Wanted me to join them."

Here he broke down sobbing spasmodi-
cally. After a few minutes he went on.
”They chased me. Through the Bot Car-
dens,‘around the Student Center, across
the ROTC field. Everytime I turned around
there they were. Those ragged, bearded
boys. those horrible scragly~haired girls.

”And they kept moaning, calling my
name, all the time gaining on me. We
went across by Memorial Hall, then by
the Law building, and suddenlythe moan-
ing stopped. I turned and saw the last
of the group disappearing into the Law
building. Then I passed out."

”But what does all that mean?" I
cried.

I'm A Freshman Who Didn't Report

”I'm a freshman," he replied. ”And
the last day of Orientation I didn’t re-
port to my tour group. I went home and
took a nap instead. I didn’t think any-
thing about it until I noticed that none
of the kids who were in my group were
around on campus.

“Then I began to hear mmors. Strange
figures. An orientation group that was
never heard from again. And now I know.
It was mine. They want me, because I
should rightful
