Teacher Strikes Disrupt

Back-To-School Ritual

The Mood-ted Press

Teachers' strikes —real and
threatened—are disrupting the
annual back-to-school ritual in
big cities and smaller communi—
ties across the United States.

In many places parents were
preparing their children with
clothes and school supplies for
opening day while the teachers
negotiated with school boards
and vowed that classrooms would
be teacherless unless salary de-
mands were met.

Strikes and boycotts were in
progress in some communities
and the giant school systems (1
Detroit and New York City were
threatened with educational
breakdowns.

Teachers in 27 school dis-
tricts in Michigan refused to go
to work Tuesday, Lt. Gov. Wil-
liam Milliken reported. Last-min-
ute negotiations brought contract
settlement in other Michigan dis-
tricts, but Milliken said 51 dis-
tricts had failed to reach con-
tract agreements.

In East St. Louis, Ill.,ateach-
er boycott idling 24,“ pupils en-
tered its second week Tuesday,
with only some 300 of 920 teach-
ers reporting for work. Theteach-
ers want to increase the starting
wage of 36,50 annually by 8150
and add increases to higher sal-
ary steps. . '

Delay School Opening

In Detroit, with 111]!) teach-
ers and 3(1),!!!) pupils, the Board
of Educatim and the Federation

of Teachers agreed to delay the
opening of school from Wednes-
day to Thursday as negotiations
continued.

Detroit's school system is in
”serious trouble,” Millikan said
as he reported that “there is no
sign of a settlement."

Detroit teachers were voting
Tuesday on the board’s latest
dfer of a 36m raise. The union
has been seeking a $1,200 raise.
Minimum salaries currently are
35,6“) a year.

In New York City, deadlocked
contract talks were set to re-
open, ofl’icials announced. Teach-
ers have threatened mass resign-
ations on Monday, opening day
for the schools. A walkout could
affect some 450]) teachers and
1,100,” pupils.

New York City teachers are
demanding a stronger hand in ed-
ucational policy as well as higher
salaries. Albert Shanker, presi-
dent of the United Federation of
Teachers in New York City,
warned that a work stoppage
could ”last a month or more."

Negro Boycott
There was a different kind of
opening—day trouble in Milwau-
kee, Wis., where the Rev. James
E. Croppi called for a school
boycott by Negro youngsters in
support of his camping: for an

open housing ordinance.
The Florida Education Asso-
ciation, representing 50,000 of the
state's 603]!) teachers, has asked

for a special legislative sessionto
appropriate more money for ed-
ucation and salaries, and has
threatened mass resignations in
November if there is no action.
At Croton, Conn., home of a
Navy submarine base and nuclear
submarine shipyards, some 9,4“)
pupils in the town’s school sys-
tem were uncertain whetherthere
would be school Wednesday as
teachers voted Tuesday on the
school boards contract offer.
Teachers in McCracken Coun-
ty, Ky., threatened a walkout
Wednesday unless the Board of

"Education agreed to raise pro-

perty taxes by 10 percent to fi-
nance pay increases. Some 275
teachers are involved.

UK..._VTutors Are Helping Kindle
A ‘Silent Revolution’ In Lexington

By JO WARREN

The Lexington Tutorial Pro-
ject, co-sponsored by the campus
YW-YMCA, is part of the ”silent
educational revolution."

”The student has become the
most powerful invisible force in
the reform of education—and,in-
directly, in the reform of Ameri-
can society," Dr. Harold Taylor,
former president of Sarah Law-
rence College, has written.

Some 2501“) students spend
about seven million hours an-
nually tutoring children in de-
pressed arais as part of the "si-
lent educational revolution," Dr.
Taylor noted. Last year the Lex-
ington Tutorial Project contri-
buted 200 students to this num-
ber.

Before the college student
came onto the tutoring scene,

 

3-4..

only the rich could afford help
outside the classroom. Now,
many people are finding that
tutoring is a two—way street, with
both tutor and tutee sharing the
benefits.

Miss Carolyn Atkinson, direc-

tor of the Lexington Tutorial
Project, believes that "in many
cases helping the tutee feel like
a worthy human being is far
more significant in his develop-
ment than his progress in school
work." ‘
She emphasized the need for
creative tutors in ‘all fields, Miss
Atkinson pointed to the need
fa uexcitement in education,"
an experience most of the tutees
have never known.

Recreation leaders are needed,
as are people who can give dem—
onstrations in fields ranging from

laughs with one of the little girls she tutored in the Lexington
tutorial program at the downtown Manchester Center.

chemistry to painting. The tu-
torial plan calls for challenging
tutees with new ideas through
field trips, plays, and other cul—
tural activities.

Meaningful Relationships

Miss Atkinson explained that
work on a ”one-to—one basis"
is encouraged as a means to a
meaningful relationship between
tutor and tutee. ”The better the
relationship," she said, ”the
more that willbeaccomplished."

She added that the time the
tutee has with his tutor ”may
be the only high spot in the
child's otherwise dull week."

The Tutorial project here had
its beginning in 1%4 when a
few students wanted to encour-
age children in Lexington areas
to finish school. They started the
work at Manchester Center.

Few Graduate

(In the past /50 years there
have been only 21 high school
gaduates from the Manchester
area and of these only one has
graduated from college.)

Now the tutoring project in-
volves five areas of the city—
Manchester, Davistown, Prall-
town, Bluegrass Housing Pro-
ject, and Cisco Road Children's
Bureau.

If you would like to be part
of the tutoring movement local-
ly, inquire at the ”Y" office,

for further infa'mation and ap-
plications.

and guidance service for stu-
dents. -

Mrs._ Ray chose the troubled
”Phi Bet" as an example to
point out that there are "con-
tingencies in every case" and
that the Dean’s Office will give
the student every consideration.

In the ‘past the Dean's 0f-
fice has acted as a judiciarybody
determining the fate of the stu-
dent in trouble. AccordingtoJack
Hall, associate dean of Student
Affairs, "this has all been
changed."

Under the new code, the ju?

dicial process of dealing out pun-
ishment has now been placed
in the hands of resident Judicial
Boards and the University Ju-
dicial Board.

Spirit Of The Code

Ken Brandenburg, adminis-
trative associate, felt that the
“spirit of the code is to get
our office out of this role of
police officer—the guy with the
big stick."

Created March 1, 1967, the
Dean of Students Office was de-
signed to ”create a functional
administrative design which
would enhance Student Affairs
activities of importance and add
meaning to a student’s total Uni-
versity experience."

The code, entitled Non-Aca-
demic Relationships Between Stu-
dents and the University of Ken-
tucky, is an attempt to clarify
“specific student discipline
guidelines. ' '

In an effort to formulate spe-
cific student-University relation-
ships, the code identifies five
separate areas of student-Univer-
sity contact.

They are the student as a
scholar, the student as a ten-
ant, the student as a member of
a student organization, the stu-
dent as an employee and the stu-
dent as a customer for goods
and services.

Under the code it was hoped
that “the deans should provide

counseling and advising service “
,to students in both academic

and disciplinary matters.

”They can best provide this
kind of help if the student re-
gards them as friends and con-
fidants rather than asuprosecutors
or judges."

By stripping the Dean’s Of-
fice of its role as judicial ar-
bitrator, it is hoped that stu-
dents will feel more at ease go-
ing to the Dean’s Office for ad-
vice.

According to Mr. Hall, the

Blacks 6Really Equal’
At NCNP Meeting

CHICAGO (AP)—The National Conference for New Politics
has ended its 4%-day convention, described as a meeting of "a
lot of disillusioned Americans who feel this society is creating more

problems than solutions."

Simon Casady, one of the con-
veners and alconference officer,
explained Monday night why he
thought the meeting was like no
other American political conven—
tion ever held. "

“One of the significant differ—
ences is in the people present,"
he said. “There were no dedica-
ted, loyal, moneyed working
members of either party, Demo-
cratic or Republican.

”This convention was made
up of a lot ofdisillusionedAmeri-
cans who feel this society is
creating more problems than so-
lutions."

‘ Carlos Russel, 33, of Brook-
lyn, N.Y., chairman of the Black
Caucus, 1w Negro delegates with
a voice in convention affairs equal

to that of the 1,750 white dele-
gates, added his own View.

“For the first time, black peo-
ple were really equal. They were
really able to exercise Black Po-
wer.

“What we're trying to show
really is that there can be no
new direction of politics without
black participation . " Russell said
the Black Caucus would havqe
walked out on the convention
had all its demands not been
met.

Demands included condemna—
tion of Zionism in the recent
Middle East war and a sugges—
tion that whites set up ”civili-
zing committees" to do some-
thing about white racism in Amer-
ica.

Are you a man with troub—
les, trials, tribulations, tempta-
tions or,turmoils?

If so, the lounge atop com-
plex Tawer A may be your ans-
wer—not to jump from, but as
a place to enjoy a pleasant at-

Tower-Top:All Things ToAll Men

mosphere, a scenic view or med- ..

itative rest. , 4.,

If you are mulically inclined,
a new grand piano awaits your
talent. If you want to keep up
with the world beyond Rose and
Limestone, the lounge's color tel-
evision should bridge the gap.
You can bring your FM radio
with you and have a game of
cards, or just relax in the plush
furniture and enjoy a breath-
taking view of Lexington and
surrounding country—day or
night, since the lounge never
closes. '

A resident of the tower, George
Willis, says you could "even study
pretty good until the guys with
the binoculars took over." And
usually the guys with the binocu—
lars are interested not as muchin
the beautiful Bluegrass country
as in the occupants of nearby
Tower B, females, you know.

There is even a movement
afoot to have workmen coat the
lounge and room windows below
with a glare resistant substance—
so the serious observer can enjoy
an undistorted view.

Complaints Too

Those who enjoy the benefits
of the lounge, however, are forced
to suffer minor inconveniehces.
The most frequent complaint is
about elevators. There are three
now in operation, and only one
is de able. Waits often min-
utes and inore for an elevator are
common occurences.

The inconvenience is com-
pounded by stalled elevators, joy
riders and button pushers. One
doesn't have to use the elevator,
of course, but senior chemistry
major Bill Ceimeier says that
"after legging it up 22 floors,
you get kind of tired."

Hippies Misled,

Izvestia Says

MOSCOW (AP)—The Soviet
government newspaper Izvestia
says American hippies are reb-
els against a machine-like, emo-
tionless way of life in the United
States, and it sympathizes with
them. ‘

The newspaper's New York
correspondent praisedthe hippies
for their ”disinterested Sharing
due to a feeling of sympathy."
But the hip world is not the
answer, he said.

The hippies ”know what to
run away from but not i) which
direction to run," the articlesaid,
implying that communism offers
youth wholesome goals.

This is what you see when you eat at the lounge
atop complex A. Besides the view, music, televi—
sion, games and other forrm ofentertainmeut are

Other frequent complex com-
flats are:

NO women allowed, in the
lounge. .

No candy or beverage ma-
chines have been installed.

Workmen often interfere with
study.

Musicians, not those who bang
out “chopsticks," should be en-
couraged to play the piano.

The telephone system should
be revamped.

Advisa' Sympathizes

Dave Wood, resident advisor
in Tower A, has generally sym-
pathized with the complaints.
He expects the elevators to be

working properly soon, and the‘

telephones are to be improved
eventually.

Food machines are definite-
ly out, Wood said, because the
six-man maintenance crew for
the tower would then be hard-
pressed to keep the lounge clean.

September 5, I967

I968 will be a year of change for the University of
Kentucky. Dynamic physical change will be even more evident
as the year progresses. The students will change. Their modes of
dress, speech, and behavior will change. Ways to have fun

will change too.

And so {we ask, will ”Kentucky’s Outstanding College
Spring Weekend” Of ten years ago provide today’s student the
same numerous times of fun? Or, is I968 the year for
LITTLE KENTUCKY DERBY to change? To modernize? This is
the question we want you to answer.

LITTLE KENTUCKY DERBY is looking for interested people
with creative ideas to direct the course of events which make up
an "Outstanding College Weekend.” Your application for the
Little Kentucky Derby Board of Student Directors is now ,
available. This week only, applications are being accepted in
the Student Center Program Director’s Office, Room 203,

Student Center.

This is your invitation to challenge. The challenge is to
create a spring weekend full of interesting fun, things to do,
which in turn will allow your fellow student to continue his
education through Little Kentucky Derby’s contribution to
scholarship.

Sincerely,

LITTLE KENTUCKY DERBY

Student Groups Need Not
Take On Parental Roles

There are signs of enlightened
thought behind the changes in
women’s curfew hours this semes-
ter-not a great deal of enlight-
enment, but a sign that better
things may be in store.

Through a short-term experi-
ment last spring, leaders of Asso-
ciated Women Students discovered
that moral degeneracy was not a
direct consequence of allowing
sophomores the midnight hour fran-
chise. All they did was give soph-
omores the privilege of not return-
ing to their dorm or sorority house
until midnight. Previously the cur-
few had been at 10:30 p.m. for both
freshmen and sophomores. As the
mle now stands freshmen women
are still required to be in by 10:30
p.m. Apparently, AWS still fears
the moral fiber of freshmen women
is suspect.

Yet even if later hours were ex-
tended to all women at UK, the
real issue at hand would not be
resolved. That, essentially, is the
right of the Administration, or a
student organization to direct in a
parental way the nocturnal habits
of its women students. There can
be no doubt that requiring students
to be in by a specified hour on
penalty of reprimand or possible
dorm expulsion arises from a parent-
child relationship. Paradoxically, it
is just such a relationship Vice
President Robert Johnson and writ-
ers of the Student Rights Code
have sought to dissolve on behalf
of the Administration.

Why then are there still wom-
en’s hours in existence?

The real power, the Adminis-
tration tells us, lies completely
with AWS, a student organization.
This year’s hours extension is the

taken. Former Dean of Women
Doris Seward was continually
quoted as favoring hours suspen—
sion if AWA so decided. Conse-
quently the situation is a topsy-
turvy kind of thing where ad-
ministrators are urging wider, more
liberal, reforms of student life reg-
ulations than student organizations
are willing to establish for them-
selves

The signs of enl1ghtment 1n AWS
lead one to hope that organization
will come of age this year; will
look at women students as adults;
and fully remove the curfew hour
for them.

The Administration has dropped
its role as foster parent to Uni—
versity students. There is no need
for a student organization to as—
sume the role of foster parent.

People Over 30
Really Do Exist!

One of the unwritten rules col-

»lege students supposedly believe

in is that anyone ox'er»30 is either:

a.) dead, or b. ) untrustworthy. Un-
derstandably, the reaction of most
people over 30 is often a matter
of downright fear for what the
young students are up to.

Yet, there are exceptions, like
this one found in a Student Cen-
ter Squawk Box:

”Coming back to this campus
after many years I find the young
girls and boys of regular college
age here very polite and helpful—
the ones in the library, book stores,
classes and anywhere on the cam-
pus. They aren't supposed to think
anyone over 30 exists, you know."

Hats Off To Dean Ockerman
For A Smooth Registration

Registration at this university
has usually been the first big news
story of the year, mainly because
of the consternation and confusion
it used to spawn.

Both this year and last, how-
ever, the story has gotten smaller
and more routine, mainly because
registration has been run more
smoothly and efficiently than ever
before.

Students who planned their
classes and preregistered last spring
spent perhaps 10 to 15 minutes

Long lines weren't there, and con—
sequently students weren thung up
in the preliminary mechanics 0f
getting the University functioning
again after its summer vacation.

Credit for the improvement goes
to Registrar Elbert Ockerman and
his staff whose aim has been to
make registration not'an ordeal
but a quick, simple necessity for
going to school. The kind of reg-
istration this one has been came

Teaching (Inflicting) ”Freshman Comp To The Unabashed

By DAVID HOLWERK

I. Introduction

The first and most important thing
for a teacher of composition to remember
is the universal nature of writing ability.
This book is designed for use at Harvard
or at a fine State University such as the
University of Michigan; or it may be used
equally well at such places as the Uni-
versity of Kentucky. For even though a
rmjority of the students at Kentucky are

products of one. "of the nation's poorest ‘

school systems, there is no reason to expect
them to be inferior to other students
in ability, scope, or creativity. To do so
would be to deny the basic premise of
Freshman Composition: That all students
can be taught to write clear, concise
prose, on vaguely literary topics, with a
minimum of effort by you, the instructor.
II. Technique . ,,

As a teacher it is well to remember
that your first duty is the protection of
yourself. Remember that the looks of your
classes —-young, naive, harmless—not only
may be but definitely are deceiving. These
kids aren't here to learn how to write,
but rather becausethey have been required
to take the course. They are therefore
angry, obstinate and militant. Still, they
may be off their guard a bit, for they
have heard tales of the unpassable nature
of Composition 101. This is your lever.
Make a point of the fact that last semes-
ter you passed seventeen percent of your

students in a moment of weakness. Make.

plentiful use of sayings such as ”This will
be the hardest course you will take here
this year and maybe in four years." Keep
your advantage by assigning a ten-page
theme, due the second class period, on a

topic Such as “A University Institution
Which Should be Changed or Abolished”
or “How The University Could be Im-
proved." Since your students will have
been at the University for about three
days, this should serve to keep them
busy.
III. Subsequent Themes

After the first theme and acouple more
on “My Hobby" or “Why My Mother

"is a Good Mother" break the news to

your class that a twenty page paper is
due at the end of the semester on any
aspect of Kafka's “Metamorphoses" which
they choose. At the same time assign
them to read Moby Dick before the next
class meeting so'they they may write an
in-class theme on it. Also provide a
syllabus of the other works which are
required for the course. Good texts for
this include The Octopus, The Sound and
the Fury, The Brothers Karamazov, Kant's
Critique of Pure Reason, or any other
book you know of which is beyond the
average freshman in length and/or scope.

Although any question on any of these
books will probably serve to completely
destroy your class, do not neglect this
aspect of your teaching. Cood questions
include ”Discuss Nature in Kafka’s Meta-
morphoses;" ”Discuss Benjy in The Sound
and the Fury as a tool of social satire;”
or "Relate Kant's Categorical Imperative
to the moral problem President Truman
faced with the A-bomb."

III. a. A Note On Outlines

It is pragmatically imperative that all
themes (especially in-class themes)should
be. accompanied by sentence outlines of
impeccable construction. On in-class work
these outlines should count at least one—

third of the grade. Formal instruction
in the construction of outlines is not
recommended. Remember, experience is
the best teacher.
111. b. .
In reality there is no III. b. But it
is necessary to have one if this booklet
is to retain impeccable footnote form.
IV.Crading

All grading practices should center
around the word vague. That is, by’
marking random passages VACUE, it is'
possible for you to convey a tone of
horrified displeasure while at the same
time remaining, yourself, quite uninvolved
and vague. Also make it a habit tomark
out every third comma and to mark in
a semicolon in between the sixth and
seventh words of every eleventh line. If
this spot is occupied by a period or comma,
rmrk it out and substitute a semicolon;
If it is occupied by a semicolon, mark
it out and put in your own semicolon.
Beside it write ”Semicolon fault—see
Kitgiaber and Lee under adjunctive dis-
missals." In selected cases question marks
may be substituted for semicolons, but
only on papers belonging to remarkably
stable students.

V. A Final Caution ,

It is possible that you may come across
a student in your career who really can
write. In this case it is of utmost im-
portance that you redouble your efforts
to keep him in submission. The usual
method is a special assignment for him,

~in which some unbearably dull subject

is covered. Pick one which requires no
scholarship, no creativity and much effort.
”The Fine Art of Buying a Guitar" is
a good example. In any case remember

THE KENTUCKY. KERNEL, Wednesday, Sept. 6, 1967 —5

that the goal of your teaching career is to
keep your students busy until you can get
your doctorate. Until you can reach that
promised land, this booklet should serve
as a guide and companion. Always keep
in mind that the principles set forth in
these pages are equally applicable to any
level of teaching be it grade school or
graduate studies.

Library Service OK,
Most Students Agree

By STU FORTH

A student survey of King Li-
brary was conducted last spring
by the Student Government, and
the University Library. There
were 741 responses to the ques-
tionnaire representing approxi—
mately six percent of the under-
graduate student body.

It was found that 94 percent
of the students surveyed used
King Library to some extent,and
that 61 percent used at least
one "departmental library. The
library was used by almost equal
numbers of students for assign-
ment and text book study, and to
a somewhat lesser extent for re-
search and book checkout.

Eighty-two percent of the stu-
dents were generally satisfied
with library services, and almost
90 percent found that the library
always or usually had the books
and periodicals which they
needed.

Students dissatisfied with li-
brary service were asked to sug-
gest improvements. The majority
were concerned with building
temperature and lighting control.
But many others stated that the
library should have more books
and periodicals. In this connec-
tion, library records show an in-
creasing rate of book acquisition
which now stands at more than
one-half million dollars per year.

New Hours Suggested

A surprising 32 percent of
students responding felt that the
hours of service in at least one
library were inadequate. Thirty-
two separate schedules for King
Library alone were suggested,
with 8:00 am. to 1:00 a.m. Mon-
day through Saturday, and 12
noon to 12 midnight Sunday be—
ing mentioned most frequently.
More than three times as many
schedules were offered for de-
partmental libraries.

Students were asked also to
suggest facilities which might
be planned for in the expansion
of the library. Facilities men-
tioned most frequently include
a snack bar, more carrels and
study space, a smoking lounge.
and a sauna. The Director noted
that one student requester] that

prophylactic dispensers be fur-
nished.

Freshmen were especially in-
terested in some sort of directory
to help locate books in the stacks
as well as library departments
and services.

Other facilities frequently
cited include a music and record
library, talk-study rooms, and
typing rooms.

In addition to facilities, stu-
dents also had the opportunity
to recommend services which
they felt the library ought to
offer. An information service and
freshmen orientation received
greatest support, especially/«om
freshmen.

Other students suggested a
better book check out system
and improved Xerox service.

Pike Jury
Can Proceed,

Judge Says

PIKEVILLE, Ky. (AP)—Pike
Circuit Judge James B. Stephen-
son told the grand jury Tuesday
it was “at liberty" to investi-
gate sedition charges against
three Pike County antipoverty
workers. I

Stephenson made the state-
ment despite an agreement by
Commonwealth's Atty. Thomas
Ratliff to delay action until a
three-judge federal panel could
nile on the constitutionality of
Kentucky's sedition statute.

"The commonwealth's attbr-
ncy had nothing to do with it,"
Stephenson said. “He doesn't
decide what the grand jury hears
or doesn't hear:

Stephenson said he told Rat-
liff if the grand jury wished to
hear evidence on the-case, he
would appoint someone else to
present the evidence.

Dan jack Combs, attorney
for the defendants, said Tues-
day he will ask U.S. District
(Tourt at Lexington to hold Rat-
Iilf and Stephenson in con pt
for violating Ratliffs agreement.
