worst
plane crash in Kentucky's history
claimed the lives of at least 58
of the 62 persons aboard an American Airlines 727 jetliner Monday
night.
The plane, en route from New
York to Cincinnati, was less than
two miles from the Greater
Cincinnati Airport when it went
down near Constance.
Witnesses at the scene reported at least three explosions.
Airline officials said halfatankof
jet fuel remained in the twisted
wreckage.
One witness said the huge
liner was clearly visible during a
heavy downpour in the early
evening darkness. The airport
said it lost radar contact with
the plane a couple of minutes
after 7 p.m.
A prominent Lexington couple
and three other Kentuckians were
listed as among the dead.
Mr. and Mrs. Rex C. Larkin,
owners of the historic Poplar Hill
Farm on the Russell Cave Pike,
were aboard the plane.
The others were Richard
Charron and William Kolb, both
of Louisville, and Thomas H.
Walsh, South Ft. Mitchell insurance agent and father of Hollywood starlet Cathie Walsh, 18,
it was reported.
"
Also aboard the plane was
Jack F. A. Flynn, son of New
York Daily News publisher F. M.
Flynn.
Four persons survived the
tragedy when they were thrown
clear of the flaming wreckage.
They were found in the tail
section of the plane, which did
not catch fire.
The plane was scheduled to
land at the Greater Cincinnati
Airport at 6:40 p.m.
Officials said poor weather
and visibility were apparently the
causes of the crash.

University Students Complete
United Nations Peace Seminar
Thirteen University

students have returned
United Nations Seminar,
sponsored by the YMCA-YWCThursday through
Saturday in New York City.
The group, which also included two UK staff
members, and six Berea and Centre College students, toured the UN building, met with foreign
delegates, and learned about the world organization's quest for peace and prosperity.
Theme of the seminar was "The UN Striving
For Peace," with particular emphasis being placed
on the Economic and Social Council. Specific
areas discussed were the
conflict
a
and the
dispute.
Delegates from UK were Paula Wallace, Mary
Bates, Jackie Ross, Diane Malette, Cheryl Downs,
Elizabeth
Lee Rathbone,
Howard,
Jimmie
Manning, Dianejordan, Michael Coleman, Richard
Bryant, Mike Farmer, and John Zeh.
Miss Jordan and Zeh were
Peggy
Cooley, YWCA director, and Kenneth Brauden-burgof the Dean of Men's office, accompanied
the group.
Pleased with the success yet aware of shortcomings of this year's seminar, the participants
are already planning next year's meeting.

Delegates have been asked to discuss the
seminar with their friends and to make themselves
available to groups desiring speakers on the UN
or any of the problems discussed in New York.
A steering committee will be
appointed next
semester, and tentative plans will be made then,
Miss Jordan said.
The group left Lexington by train Wednesday
afternoon, and arrived in New York about noon
Thursday. After lunch the students toured the UN
Building, receiving general background information on the organization's founding, structure, and
goals.
They then were briefed by a member of the
United States Foreign Policy Association, Mrs.
Ellis King.
The assistant secretary of the Economic and
Social Council, P. Sankar Menon of India, spoke
on his council's role, stressing the importance of
development.
"At the founding of the UN," he said, "the
charter members realized that lasting peace could
not be maintained unless and until economic and
social conditions of the world were better."

Police and rescue squads raced
to the crash scene and hospitals

Civil Aeronautics Board investigators, who rushed to the crash
area, are still trying to find the
cause of the mysterious 727 jetliner crash in Lake Michigan
which claimed 30 lives last
August.
The plane, capable of carrying
100 passengers, was rated one of
the toughest and most trouble-fre- e

Nearly 200 of the types are

KIPA Rejects
Free Press
Resolution
BEREA -- The Kentucky Intercollegiate Press Association Saturday voted down a resolution
prohibiting prior censorship of
publications by faculty and administrators.
The group voted 4 against
the resolution, introduced by
Kernel editor Walter Crant in
the organization's fall meeting.
Although the resolution consisted of a
statement
concerning freedoms and responsibilities of the student press,
centered
around
controversy
point six, which read:
"The editor accepts the
responsibility for the paper and
its contents. In no case can a
representative of a university,
whether a board or faculty
member, have the implied or
express power of prior censor5--

ship."

An amendment to change the
word "can" to "should" failed
by a 4 vote. The UK delegation
led the fight against the amendment on the grounds it would
weaken the statement.
Voting for the resolution was
n
UK, Morehead, Kentucky
and Union College. Opposed were Eastern Kentucky
State College, Western Kentucky
State College, Berea, Kentucky
Southern, and Georgetown College.
"It is shocking that editors
in Kentucky will not endorse
even the basic tenents of a free
student press," Crant said following the resolution's defat.
He said he felt the defeat
could be blamed primarily on the
editors' fear of administrative
reprisal rather than disapproval
of the principles expressed in the
resolution.
He told the group he intended
to send the resolution, if passed,
to presidents of all member
schools.
Grant announced that he will
introduce the resolution again
at the organization's spring
meeting.

University Students Take Time To Help Orphans Study
By TOY BILLITER
Assistant Women's Page Editor
Few people on this campus, or on any other college
campus, are able to dredge up a few free hours from
their schedules. In fact, on some days, 24 hours seems
hardly enough time to complete all the various tasks
There are tests to prepare for, term papers
assigned.
towrite, assignments to hand in and meetings to attend.
It seems sometimes like a neverending rat race.
But there arc several students on campus who have
managed to find time within this rat race to set aside
their studies to help others. Among these students
arc nine girls and two boys who spend one night
a week tutoring at the Children's Bureau of Fayette
County, a home for children who arc scheduled to
be adopted.

This program, which is unsponsored by any organization, began last year when two girls interested in
social work realized that a small amount of their
time would be a great help to these children.
Gradually, by inquiring among other students, the
group expanded to 11. Students now tutoring at the
Bureau are: Margie Owen, special education major;
Jeanne Brelt, A&S, Judy Powell, A&S, Carol Clatz-mayepolitical science major, Amy Carr, A&S; and
Pat VVolse, Edie Vomm, Harriet Lerner, Ester Caplan,
Kim Reynolds and Dan Practer, social work majors.
Every Tuesday night, these students, without pay
or credit, go to the home for orphans to tutor children
from the first grade to the sixth. Ten children arc
chosen by Mr. Richard Walker, director, and each has
his own private tutor.
r,

Pat Wolse, who helped organize the group, pointed
out that the children tutored are those who have fallen
behind in school work, not because of retardation,
but because of transferring from schools or illness.
Reading, arithmetic, and spelling are the subjects
most often tutored.

"I really don't know if they learn 'cry much or
not, but they really enjoy the special attention," remarked Margie Owen, one of the tutors.
The girls generally work with one child for an
average of one semester or until the child seems capable of earring on by himself.
"It's a good feeling to know that in some small
way you've helped one of these children even if it's
just to be his friend," Pat said.

* "On The Other Hand, There May He Some Who Would
Prefer To Vote AGAINST Our Beloved France"

Implied Retaliation
reader in today's letters to
the editor column comments on
insinuations by military spokesmen
which indicate students participating in protest demonstrations
may get priority on the draft list.
We can echo his sentiments that
if such a system were put into
practice it would indeed be unfair.
The military would, in a sense,
be penalizing groups who expressed
opinions differing with the military
point of view.
It certainly reflects badly on the
military if it would seek such retaliation against those expressing
an opinion contrary to that of
certain military leaders.
In that fredom of speech (one
of this nation's most cherished
rights) it is ironic that the military, itself an arm of the American
government, would seek to punish
individuals for expressing their
opinions.
A

Such rigid control on protesters
is not needed for the sake of the

"image" of American democracy;
that image would be harmed greatly

if such expressions of opinion were
suppressed.

Though it may be argued that
the demonstraters harmed more
than aided their desire for an immediate, peaceful solution to the
Vietnam situation, those involved
certainly have the right to voice
their opinions.
And though the military has yet

to take specific action against those

who question their policies and
procedures, their threat is unjust.
We hope the state and national
"spokesmen" quoted in two recent
Kernel articles are not indicative
of the feelings of the military forces
and high government officials on
this point.

Awakening Begins
The University chapter of
Students for a Democratic Society
deserve a compliment for drumming
up a vital enough program to draw
campus occupants from their usual
weekend social activities.
The Kernel continually has bemoaned the provincialism and
apathy of the University
community and has hoped the
advent of two more nationally
active groups than the Young Republicans and Young Democrats
might stir student and faculty interest.
It seems that SDS, with its Friday night program, has taken a step
in this direction. The crowd listening to the debate on Vietnam
was estimated at 750, a considerable
showing for a weekend night. The
group was competing for attendance with an outstanding concert
program, Arthur Fiedler and the
Boston Pops Orchestra.
We hope SDS and other
al-oriented
groups will be able
to plan more programs of such
quality that will awaken the University community to . the world
around it.

To The Editor:
On Nov. 6, five men in New
York City burned their draft cards
during a legally authorized public

meeting. One man who protested
the draft card burning was arrested
for trying to stop it. This violation of federal law, draft card
burning, was responded to by a
spokesman for the Federal Bureau
of Investigation saying that "no
arrest was immenent."
The question of the great protest movement took on a new perspective Saturday. It is now possible to get a permit to break
federal law. It is also apparent
that a conscientious citizen, acting
without extremist backing, is in
danger when exercising his right

Whether or not Kennedy

Accordingly, nobody in the
State Department writes off the
Kennedy trip as routine. But

there is a difference of opinion

To understand why one Senatorial junket looms so large, a
little recent history is essential.

His points revolved around the idea that the
U.S. must contain communism
behind fortifications to protect
itself.

Discussion centered around
the entire U.S. foreign policy
since World War II, rather than
just U.S. policy in Vietnam.
Main points in contention
were:

while publicly declaring its
devotion to freedom and liberty.
He noted that the North Vietnamese leader, Ho Chi Mihn,
could sweep the polls if free
elections were held today in both
North and South Vietnam, as
Ho Chi Mihn started the national
revolution after World War II to
rid Indochina of French colonialism. It has grown to the present
war in Vietnam that has attracted
the Chinese communists.'
Mr. Cottlieb asked if the U.S.
could possibly secure the friendship and alliance of a people
when it was the U.S. which has
been instrumental in quashing a
national revolution, with a wide
base of popular support.
He held that force was no way
to win the people, contending
the U.S. should try to beat the
communists at their own game by
promising a better life for the
people and coming across with
the results.

government for that matter, have
