Office limited by space, personnel, budget allocations

(Editor's note: This is the second in a
series concerning minority affairs at the
l'niversity.)

By WALTER HIXSON
Assistant Managing Editor

The University‘s minority student af-
fairs office is limited by space, personnel
and budget allocations, according to
Director Jerry Stevens.

Because of limited space, a proposal has
been made to move the program from its
location in the basement of Miller Hall to
Alumni Gym. But the move offers “little
improvement," Stevens said.

Although the gym would supply the
much-needed extra space. Stevens said
loss of the program‘s central location
would offset the benefits. Miller Hall is
located directly across from the office
tower, while Alumni Gym is at Euclid and
South Limestone.

Stevens, who has said he may resign as
minority student affairs director, is
“concernedabout the lack of alternatives“
in finding a relocation site for the
program. “How important are students
here tconsidered) if there‘s no room for
their programs?“ he asked.

Vol. LXVII No. 35
Tuesday, September 23, 1975

Dr. John T. Smith, vice president for
minority affairs, said Alumni Gym is the
only potential relocation site for the
minority student program. There are
several drawbacks to relocating in Alumni
Gym, he added, citing the need for “ex-
tensive renovations."

President Otis A. Singletary, in a Friday
interview, said although Alumni Gym
represents the only alternative for
relrv-qﬁnn at this time. “there will be

construction on this campus — we can need for an expanded lounge area.”
consider a move then." Stevens described the effects of not
having a lounge as “very limiting. We
need reception and lounge facilities to
accommodate students — it deﬁnitely has
to change.”

Singletary said relocation of other
programs in order to facilitate moving the
minority student program is not under
consideration. “That’s a very tough thing
to do,“ he said. Because of escalating black enrollment,

The possibility of relocating the the minority student office could also

Senate rejects proposal,
passes busing resolution

By DAN CRUTCHER
Kernel Staff Writer

The Student Senate Monday rejected a
constitutional amendment which would
have removed the Student Government
(SG) president as the Senate chairman
and passed a resolution on busing similar
to one it had tabled two weeks ago.

The constitutional amendment, spon-
sored by SG President Jim Harralson and
Vice President Glenn Stith, would have
made the Senate chairman the senator—at-
large receiving the most votes in the
Spring election. It proposed that the
Senate elect its own chairman for the
remainder of this year.

SG constitutional amendments require a
two-thirds vote of the full Senate at two
consecutive meetings to pass.

Several senators objected to the
provision giving the chairmanship to the
senator-at-large receiv: the most votes.
“We may get in there somebody who
doesn‘t want it or doesn’t know much
about it.“ said Arts and Sciences Senator
Mary Duffy.

Other senators said they felt the Senate
should elect its own chairman. The
amendment failed by a 6-19 vote.

Harralson said he was unsure whether
he would try to introduce another amend-
ment along the same lines. “It would
probably be better if they (the Senate)
brought forth a proposal of their own. I‘m
not really sure what I‘ll do yet,“ he said.

In a three-hour meeting, the Senate also
passed a resolution “condemning the
racist violence attending busing in
Louisville. Ky.“ The resolution was
sponsored by the Black Student Union

(BSU) and the Student Coalition Against
Racism.

Discussion centered around whether the
resolution was intended to support busing
as a mears of desegregation. Senator—at~
large Hal Haering asked the resolution’s
sponsors: “Are you saying you’re sup
porting busing?" BSU Secretary
Georgenna Riley said: “Yes, until a better
solution comes along."

At the last Senate meeting a similar
resolution ran aground when senators
could not agree on its interpretation.
Monday. however, the resolution passed —
with extensive wording changes — 20-7 on
a roll call vote.

The Senate also voted to send a copy of
the resolution and a record of how the
senators voted to state newspapers,
several Jefferson County officials and
Gov. Julian Carroll. ”1 would like a copy
for myself to take back to my fraternity so
they don‘t de-activate me,” said Haering,
who voted against the resolution.

Two bills requiring expenditure of SG
funds were passed by the Senate. One, a
bill asking SG to co—sponsor a public
candidates forum to be held Oct. 28, sets a
cost-limit to SG of $200. The other bill
granted Free University $200 for the fall
semester. Free U had asked for $400 for
the school year.

A bill requesting $280 for the Bluegrass
Belles —— a group which provides halftime
entertainment at UK athletic events —
failed 16-11.

The proposed SG budget, before the
Senate for approval, was referred to the
Finance Committee for further con-

sideration.

Cobb’s advising position is set up on a
trial basis, although Smith said he has
requested recurring funds for the position
in his biennial budget request. Recurring
funds would establish the position on a
permanent basis, but that request must be
approved by the Board of Trustees and the
state Council on Public Higher Education
(CPHE).

Because of space and funding
limitations, Stevens said, “we have
reached a stage where development is
limited. But we have instructions to make
do with what we have." The minority
student affairs office is allotted $37,500,
including salaries, for this fiscal year.

Dayan represents fascist Israel,
not qualified to speak On peace

In regard to the allegations in the
editorial of Sept. 17, (Kernel, ”The Mid
East of the West”) and statements made
by members of the Student Center Board
(SCB) we like to mention a few points.

Due to one-sided chauvanistic and false
information on the Palestine issue, Pales-
tinian people, their rights and struggle and
the Middle East in general which were
presented in communications media, we
deemed it to be our task together with
Arab students and American friends to
present the case from Palestinian point of
view. To achieve this we have planned a
Palestine Week scheduled from Sept. 22-26
consisting of a literature table set in the
Student Center, slides and culminating in
two movies to be shown Sept. 26 in the
Student Center, followed by a discussion.

We are motivated in our efforts by the
struggle of Iranian and Palestinian people
against the common enemy embodied in
the Shah of Iran’s regime and Zionist
state, and by the collaboration of these two
in suppressing people’s movements of the
region.

Palestine Week is a part of our long
range program to familiarize the student
community with the facts of the Middle
East and struggle of the people there, but
we believe that the student body should

have an unbiased knowledge of the
problem prior to Moshe Dayan’s scheduled
Sept. 29 lecture.

We think that different views on the
subject, including that of the Israelis’
should be presented, although the latter is
quite well-known thanks to the news
media. At the same time we regret the
choice of Dayan for this purpose.

A general who has been responsible for
acts such as mass punishment in the form
of blowing up houses of a whole village,
uprooting its inhabitants and suppressing
brutally people’s resistance in the occu-
pied territories and who has actively
advocated and implemented militaristic
and aggressive solutions is not qualified to
speak of peace to a democratic-minded
audience.

His political ambitions can be seen from
what he said to Allen Hart of British
Television. ”If I had to choose between a
peace which meant a return to the pre~l967
war boundaries and non-withdrawal with-
out peace, I w0uld prefer to hold on to
parts of our present position even at the
price of non-peace. I think that Israel must
remain in the Western Bank forever,”
Dayan said.

Dayan represents the expansionist and
fascistic policy of Israel. There are an

Grow up

Editor:

lt is one thing for a newspaper to
report the news and comment on it. It's
quite another, for a campus newspaper
to engage in reactionary editorializing
by attempting to create animosity
between student, staff, faculty groups
where none exists.

I am of course referring to the
editorial of Sept. 18 (Kernel, ”A sea of
milk”) discussing the appointment of
Ms. Sarah Jenkins as Panhellenic
adviser. I will overlook your brave
”Liberal” attempt not to be racist,
while displaying the utmost in reac-
tionary ”classism.”

I seriously doubt anyone will pay as
much attention to Ms. Jenkins ”Black»
ness” as the Kernel has. More apolo-
gies are in order than the half-hearted
attempt in the original editorial. As a
UK sorority alumni, I could care less if
Ms. Jenkins is green and I think most of
the greek members would agree.

Please grow up Kernel, this is the UK
campus 1975 and what the members of
the Panhellenic are interested in, is can
she do the job?

The freshman players also play-
ed well for their first time out on
the college level.

Water polo coach Wynn Paul
felt that “for the opening game
we did very well especially since
our starting lineup played very
little because of the easy victory.
I was able to use all 15 players
and in doing so we tried many
different combinations.“

The only weak point in the
team's play was defense. Paul
said. “With all the different
people playing. it was difficult to
get our defense set. This allowed
Illinois to score as many as five
points.”

()f the 15 players. eight are
freshmen. which Paul said.
"played quite respectable."
Three freshmen scored. Bob
West. twice. Rick I’ohrer and Ted
Bresnahan once each.

The (fats try to make it two in a
row this Friday when the team
travels to Purdue.

The independent teams are
organizations ofplayers who may
be from the same high school.

such as the Flem-Flam Gang
from llopkinsville.

There are 40 women‘s teams
which compete in one division.

UK flag football differs from
flag football at other universities
because. ”We don‘t have any
type of kicking in any of our in—
tramural sports." Daopoulos
said. “There was a high amount
of serious injuries, such as
broken bones when kicking was
allowed.

“Since the rules now disallow
any kicking. there have hardly
been any serious injuries. only
bruises and scrapes."

I‘lach weeknight. except
Friday. 16 games are played at
the Seaton (‘enter fields between
