UK alumni group honors first black student

By DALE GREER
Managing Editor

More than 200 black alumni gath-
ered in Lexington this weekend to
honor those who have shattered ra-
cial barriers and challenged bigotry
at the University of Kentucky.

In what was truly a homecoming,
alumni held a banquet Saturday
night to celebrate the 20th anniver-
sary of UK's Office of Minority Af-
fairs and to inaugurate the Lyman
T. Johnson Alumni Society ,_ the
first group ever formed to give
black alums a sense of community

with the University.

The society is named after UK‘s
first black student. who now is 85.

“Over the years. we have missed
being a collective body and belong-
ing," said Lametta Johnson, presi-
dent of the society.

“It‘s important that we see our-
selves as being part of the Universi—
ty of Kentucky."

Linda Miller, chairwoman of the
society's Homecoming activities,
said some black alumni still are hit—
ter about the racism they experi-
enced at UK during the 19-ltls, '50s
and ‘60s.

“We are trying to locate our
alumni and bring them back into
the fold." she said.

Miller also said she recently has
seen a resurgence of racism at UK
and hopes the alumni society can
help ease racial tensions.

“What we'd like to do is cool
that surge, put out the tire so we
can be one Universuy," she said.

In a brief speech to alumni,
Chancellor for the Lexington Cam-
pus Robert Hemenway said the
banquet marked “a grand beginning
for a new relationship between the
African-American community and

the University of Kentucky

“Mr. Lyman ’1'. Johnson showed
us what the University 01 Kentucky
was like and how deficient it was
when this was a University that was
not lor all the people of the com-
monwealth," Hemenway said.

“I aiii telling you today that the
liriitersily ol Kentucky is going to
lie a university lor all people ol tlte
commonwealth."

William 11. Turner. .r 196‘) UK
graduate. said during the keynote
speech that Lyman T. Johnson “did
more than most people thotight was
safe."

after he kicked a 53-yard field goal
with one second left on the clock to
beat Cincinnati 20-17.

Carla Wilson. the who was
crowned Homecoming queen Satur—
day. said: “Of course it made a
great ending even better.“

“1 could hear my friends behind
tne screaming my name, so I knew
what was about to happen." said

whom there was no reason I could
ever have been at the University of
Kentucky.

“1 thank God. my brother. that
you're still here because there
are so few of us that get to see the
flowers of the seed that we sow.

“And you are looking at people in
this room. Mr. Johnson. And you
sowed the seed in concrete. Most
people put their seeds in dirt, but
you put them in a place where peo-
ple didn’t even want you.”

Turner likened the early days of
racial integration at UK to putting a
canary in a coal mine to see if it
could survive the noxious fumes of
methane gas.

“I think of caged birds when I
think of us — those of us who were
African~Americans and went to the
University of Kentucky.

“Because those of us who are
alumni of the University of Ken-
tucky —— we were in a cage. They
stuck us in that stuff to see if we
would die.

“I'm here to tell you we didn‘t

  

JOHNSON

die. They thought we were going to
suffocate from this alienation. They
thought we were going to suffocate
from this humiliation. They thought
we were going to suffocate from
this segregation and this degrada-
tion.

“But we didn‘t.
wouldn‘t be here.

“That's why I’m happy —~ be-
cause we are the original Kentucky
thoroughbreds."

Turner also praised those who
helped organize the alumni society

Otherwise we

 

and brought black graduates togeth-
er.
“Of all the things that men and
women can do. their best efforts
must be done inside organizations,“
Turner said.

He spoke ofa black alumni meet-
ing iii 1971 that was less than a suc-
cess.

“I drove from Nashville and I got
to Lexington and there was about
seven of us," Turner said.

He said that black people must
organize themselves so they can
better control their destiny.

“In my work, I get to around this
country and I deal with a lot of peo-

where there’s about a million and a
half of us — we unorganized. I was
in New Hampshire a couple of
weeks ago. There's about 31) black
people in New Hampshire -— they
unorganized."

gtuiization around this brother's
name and keep it going. Let us
please control that part of our lives

that we can control."

the festivities. but many said the pa-
rade would have been more enjoya-
ble if the weather had not turned
quite so cold or if the parade had
been held later in the day.

“It‘s freezing out here, but it‘s
worth it to support UK," said Tracy
Johnson, a telecommunications sen-
ior and member of the Homecom-
ing Committee.

He had missed a 33-yard chip

would haye broken Cincinnati‘s

times “drifts.” It's not always easy
to focus on that little spot on tilt
ball and that big space between the
goalposts and connect them.

“My problem is I don't get ner-

Hocknran moved the ball 33 yards

The ttrsi was a short pass to Neal
Clark. who fought for a little extra,
but it gave Hockman a scare.
