What's SDS About? 'Football' TellsThe Tale
By DARRELL RICE
to their National Council meeting at UK last
weekend, some Students for a Democrat if Society members played
a name of football among themselves on campus.
Refore t lie name could begin, the first problem arose: how to
divide up for teams.
There was the possibility of having the
faction vs.
the anarchists. Or the "beards" vs. the "nonbeauls." Or the
"barefeet" vs. the "sandals."
When the basis for team formation was finally decided on,
another discussion arose: what "Ixmrgeois institutions" should
lx done away with such as centering the ball, keeping score or
even having teams.
After the game's format was set, the teams, with one woman
included, began play. A pass was thrown to the woman player,
and the men on the other team gentlemanly allowed her to catch
it without any defensive efforts.
Another discussion arose at once. The participants decided they
had been guilty of "male chauvinism" and that if the women's
liberation movement were to succeed, there could be no protective
nude chauvinism.

They agreed not to do that any more.
As a result of the SDS National Council's
nutting here last
weekend, many UK students hav e been asking vv hats SDS is all
alxnit. The "football" game is as good a start on an explanation
as any.
SDS is made up of many factions rangingliom liberal capitalists
(there are very few of these, though) to admirers of Chinese Communism. This makes the group's general philosophy difficult, if
not impossible, to describe.

As a sidelight

And there are many differences in the individual chapters,
which makes description even more difficult. The UK SDS chapter
would probably be comparatively conservative in relcieme to manv
chapters across the nation.

For an "official" definition, one could take the preamble to
the SDS national constitution, which was written a few years
ago when the group originated in Michigan. The preamble reads:
"The SDS is an association of young people of the left. It
seeks to create a sustained community of educational and political

Focus '68 was an attempt tem, a willingness to abide by
to bring men, leaders in their the rules, and an interest on the
fields, to speak at UK on "social inequities," and in that it

succeeded.
But Focus was a victim of
circumstances; it suffered from
cancellation by two major speakers, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and
Muhammed Ali, both declining

2 Deny Interest In UK Job

Since University President John W. Oswald
resigned last Tuesday, there has been a lot of
speculation about who will succeed him.
Two of the people prominently mentioned
as successors Kentucky Sen. Thruston B. Morton
and University of Alabama President Frank Rose-w- ere
on campus Saturday to speak at the Focus
'68 program, a symposium on social inequities.
A few weeks ago, Sen. Morton voiced an urge
to get into the "academic community," as he put
it, when he announced his decision to retire
from politics and not run for reelection to the
Senate in the fall.
Saturday Sen. Morton said he had no thoughts
whatsoever of assuming the presidency here.
"Absolutely not," he said. "What they need
at the University of Kentucky is a man far younger
than I, and a man with an academic background
which I don't have, and a man who can give 10
vigorous years to the administration of this great

institution.
"If I had enough energy in me to be president
of the University, 1 assure you I would be running
for my seat in the United States Senate," Sen.
Morton told the Kernel.

Bill Turner. 'Willine To Die'
KIMTOH'S NOTK: Hill Turner, senior sociology major and
black activist, spoke at Focus
(vS
Friday night in place of
Ali (Cassius Clay), who
cancelled his appearance to he
with the family of Dr. Martin
Luther King. This is the text
of Turner's address.
On behalf of the Black Student Union of the University
of Kentucky, as a group of restless and angry young black people, and for any other people
who arc aware, if not subjugated
to the many social inequities of
American society, I have prepared
these few words. They will, I
rest assured, offend some people,
but I am no longer concerned
with offending people, for obviously, people arc not too concerned when we are offended,
which is, incidentally, why we
found it necessary to form the
Black Student Union . . . which
is, further, why this society
needed a man like the Rev. Dr.
Martin Luther King we were
being offended.
During the height of the riots
in Watts a few years back, noted
black author and poet James
Baldwin was asked how he, as
a black man, felt about the riots.
To the dismay of many who felt
that he should, and certainly
would give an optimistic and
"good American" reply, he said:
"Any black man who is subjectively aware should walk this
land in a constant state of rage."
And I, when asked to speak at
this solemn and remorseful occasion, will not sacrifice my true
feelings at the "risk" of losing
friends and the support of any
liberals who may be at this
gathering. I too, as an aware
black man, am in a state of
rage. Racism in this land, and
indeed in this place, has taken
the life of one whom I cherished
very dear; I am in a state of

rage, lou, while America, may,
at one point, have felt the real
atrocity of the violent act. But
we who arc black, many of whom
who had called Dr. King everything from the Black Moses to
the SuperTom of the century
. . . we arc the ones who really
suffer in this loss from one of
our ranks. Many of us arc the
ones who had considered his
nonviolent tactic as absurd, impossible and wishful thinking at
best. It is we who really feel
the full impact of this act, for
you have taken one of us

through the opposite of the tactic
that he so fervently upheld. But
with conditions as they arc at
this point, we know and now
rudely realize what Dr. King's
life meant to us; I shudder to
think what his death may mean.

you whose commitment it is to
resolve this racial issue that
plagues our land. But, should I,
as a black man, reach in to touch
these persons who will sincerely
help in this matter as Dr. King
reached in to touch the reasonable white society what is my
fate?

I Have a Dream
By MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
EDITOR'S NOTE: (A speech delivered before the Lincoln Memorial during the March on Washington, August
28, 1963.)
1. Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand
today, signed the Emancipation Procla- niation. This momentous decree came as
a great beacon of light of hope to millions
of Negro slaves who had been seared
in the flames of withering injustice. It
came as a joyous daybreak to end the long
night of their captivity.
2. But one hundred years later, the
Negro still is not free. One hundred
years later, the life of the Negro is still
sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.
3. One hundred years later, the Negro
lives on a lonely island of poverty in
the midst of a vast ocean of material
prosperity. One hundred years later, the
Negro is still languished in the corners
of American society and finds himself an
exile in his own land. So we have come
here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
4. In a sense we have come to our
nation's capital to cash a check. When
the architects of our republic wrote the
magnificent words of theGmstitutionand
the Declaration of Independence, they
were signing a promissory note to which
every American was to fall heir. This
note was a promise that all men, yes,
black men as well as white men, would
be granted the unalienable rights of life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
5. It is obvious today that America
has defaulted on this promissory note
insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred
obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check; which has come
back marked "insufficient funds."
(i. But we refuse to believe that the
bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse
to beliec that there are insufficient funds
in the great vaults of opportunity of
this nation. So we have come to cash
this check a check that will give us
upon demand the riches of freedom and
the security of justice.
7. We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the
fierce urgency of now. This is no time
to engage in the luxury of cooling off
or to take the traiKiuiliing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real
the promises of democracy. Now is the

.

time to rise from the dark and desolate
valley of segregation to the sunlit path
of racial justice. Now is the time to lift
our nation from the quicksands of racial
injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice
a reality for all of God's children.
- 8.
It would be fatal for the nation
to overlook the urgency of the movement and to underestimate the determination of the Negro. This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent
will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality.
1963 is not an end but a beginning.
Those who hope that the Negro needed
to blow off steam and will now be content will have a nide awakening if the
nation returns to business as usual.
9. There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is
granted his citizenship rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake

the foundations of our nation until the
bright day of justice emerges.
10. But there is something that I must
say to my people who stand on the warm
threshold which leads into the palace of
justice. In the process of gaining our
rightful place we must not be guilty of
wrongful deeds.
11. Let us not seek to satisfy our
thirst for freedom by drinking from the
cup of bitterness and hatred. We must
forever conduct our stniggle on the liigh
plane of dignity and discipline. We must
not allow
