Today at 5 p.m. is the deadline for filing for the April 9
Student Government elections,
and at present four slates of candidates have announced they have
filed or intend to file for the
top two SC posts president and
vice president.
Tim Futrell and Jim Gwinn
announced Monday that they
would be running for president
and vice president respectively.
Also Monday, Joe Maguire
announced he would run for vice
president on a slate with Thorn
Pat Juul, who previously had
announced that he would run for

James D. Williams told the Kernel Monday night that he was
running for president with Rodney Tapp as his vice president.
Bruce Carver and Steve Bright
previously had announced their
plans to run for the offices.
Futrell-Gwin-

n

Futrell and Gwinn said they
were running because "we think
our partnership can represent the
broadest spectrum of students
and campus organizations."
Futrell is presently SG vice
president and Gwinn is a representative.
"We want to make it. clear
to every student that we run
to propose new, constructive,
creative ideas," Futrell said. " We
think a great deal of progress
can be achieved through our
methods in dire contrast to the
.

methods the other candidates
have expressed."
Futrell said his andCwinn's
platform had not been completely finalized, but he added, "In
general the platform reflects what
I would term achievable student

power."

He said that "power" meant
such things as a "dynamic" SG
executive assisted by a strong
executive branch of from 20 to
50 individuals.
Another part of the "power,"
according to Futrell, would be
an active student advisory board
in every college of the University
to participate in tenure decisions
and the hiring and firing of in-ructors.
Futrell said other problems
he hoped to deal with included
the whole system of parking and
the University telephone system.
Gwinn added that he and Futrell would work to make the student member of the Board of
Trustees a voting member and to
make the presidents of the community colleges voting members
of their respective advisory
boards.
Futrell claimed none of the
other candidates has as good
a liaison with the General Assembly as he has through the
Kentucky Student Association.
The General Assembly would
have to act to give the student
seat a vote on the board.
Concerning the campaign, Futrell expressed fear that the other
g
candidates would engage in
and political innuendo.
"I would like to call on them
st

now for an end to this," he said,
adding that he and Cwinn would
not engage in such tactics.

Maguire

Maguire, Thorn Pat Juul's running mate and an SC representative and member of Students
for Action and Responsibility
(SAR), called attention to the
student unrest sweeping the
country and said what students
want is participatory democracy.
"Students today are screaming at administrators and politicians alike to cut loose the
apron strings, admit that we are
no longer naive infants, and allow us to exercise the universal
right of the individual to take
part in those processes which
determine his life and growth,"
Maguire said.
He said that for the past year
SAR has tried to bring into the

Changes In Graduate Parking Delayed

Kernel Staff Writer
Craduate student B parking
permits have been extended until
the end of this semester, according to University President
A. D. Kirwan.
Under a prior plan, graduate
students were to be extended B
permits only until April 1, when
they would have been revoked.
Revisions planned for next
year in parking for graduate students include stipulations that:
Any graduate student with a

primary teaching responsibility
at least two hours a week may
apply for a B permit.
Craduate students who are
research assistants may apply
for a B permit.
Dr. Kirwan announced the
revisions at a meeting of the
University Senate Monday. He
said the plan was recommended
by the Committee on Parking
and Traffic Control and that the
plan would be in effect for the
next year.
Dr. Kirwan said graduate stu

dents who do not carry teaching
or research responsibilities will
be eligible for C permits only.
Present A permits will be extended through April 16, he said.
B permits have been extended
until May 16. During these extended periods both old and new
permits will be honored.
Dr. John W. Hutchinson,
chairman of the Parking and Traffic Control Committee,
said
"What we are trying to avoid
is the issuance of blanket B permits to graduate students."

"The great basic collections in

writes Dr. Clark. Whether Three
American Frontiers, with its
and human-intereplain-talstyle can contribute to a reputation of intellect for its readers
is debatable, but it will inform
them, and inform them accurately, for its author is one of the
most meticulous researchers of
Southern history.
Dr. Clark's fresh approach
will, however, refute Phillip
Cuedalla, the British historian
who observed "history rqeats
itself; historians repeat each

may repeat what Dr. Clark has
written, and the way in which
he wrote it, but his writings now
are repetitions not of historians
but only of frontier Americans.

Wilborn passed out 50 copies
to members of the SG one week
ago, and another 150 were picked
up by students in the SG office.
The essay, which compares
the subjugation of college students by school administrators
to the plight of Blacks in society, was written four years ago
by Cerald Farber, a professor
at California State College. It
has been widely circulated.

Obscenity Responsible
President Martin, who called
VVilbom's actions to the board's
attention, said he found the leaflet "extremely obscene." He said
the censure action was not motivated by the content, which is
highly critical of school administrators, but by the obscenities.
Wilborn, who attended the
board meeting at which he was
censured, said he "tried to tell
them they were making a mistake." But, he says, "They had
their minds made up for them."

Asked what the meaning of
the censure action is, he replied,
"Nothing. As I understand, the
censure is a sort of slap on the
wrist."
Following the SG meeting
Thursday a group of approximately 600 students marched across
the Eastern campus to President

Martin's home.

Jointly In Louisville Today
The UK trustees and the trustees of the University of Louisville will meet today in joint session for the first time since the
1968 General Assembly ordered them to workout "a plan of affiliation last March.
No agenda had been set for today's meeting in Louisville,
according to U of L President VVoodrow M. Strickler, but he
said that he presumed the meeting would take up a proposed plan
of affiliation approved "in principle" by the joint trustees in
December 1967.
Acting UK President A. D. Kirwan explained that the meeting
between the two boards was being held to see if "any agreement
can be reached for our closer affiliation."
The proposal, recommended by a citizens committee, called
for the formation of a single university with both UK and U of L
as
parts. The merged university, under the proposal,
would
have a new name and would be governed by a single
president and a single board of trustees.
According to the proposal, each university would have a separate
chancellor, with each responsible to the single president and trustees.
The state Council on Public Higher Education recently asked the
presidents of UK and U of L to report on the status of negotiations
between the schools at an April 7 meeting. The overall plan of
affiliation is to be completed for presentation to the 1970 legislature.
U of L, now a
municipal university, is scheduled
to enter the state system in July 1970, but will be regarded as a
state institution for budgeting purposes this July.

* 1984 Come Early
Remember when you read 1981,
probably when you were a junior
in high school, and how you shuddered as you conjured up in your
mind all kinds of totalitarian science fiction devices that could be
used to control you? If so, you
most likely have outgrown such
fears and now have faith in the
directions and means envisioned
by society.
Perhaps an article contained in
the March 3 issue of Mayday (now
called Hard Times), a weekly news
pamphlet, should cause you to start
worrying again. The auspicious
American Council on Education,
according to the article, is devising a personality test file which
universities could use to eliminate
certain types of "undesirable" students under admission procedures.
The types of students to be excluded from the institutions of enlightenment availing themselves of
such a system, of course, would
be those prone to demonstrate and
protest in support of their views.
presently envisioned by the
council's research director, Alexander Astin, schools could give the
As

r

personality tests as a required phase
of its admission application procedures. The tests would then be
analyzed to detect protest-pron- e
characteristics. Astin has found in
his preliminary investigations that
these characteristics include having
no religious preference, being politically liberal, expressing an interest in artistic pursuits, describing
oneself as high in originality and
and afcoming from
fluent homes.
well-educat-

ed

The dangers implicit in such a
scheme are obvious. Will it now
become necessary for students to
conform to society's official view
of what is correct behavior and outlook in order to have an equal opportunity for higher education?
Have our colleges and universities
come to that? (UK officials say
they are not familiar with the new
tests.) If so, then this only proves
how badly students need to make
basic reforms in their schools . . .
and before it is too late.

tM

Mayday offers a suggested method for countering such a situation:

"Lie through your teeth'. That
may be the only alternative, but
must society come to that?

Naive Kernel
To the Editor of the Kernel:
I read where theKemel is disappointed
that Thorn Pat Juul is "dealing with
certain Young Republican Leaders." Why
should it be disappointing for Mr. Juul
to "deal" with leaders of an organization of which he is a bona fide member.
Certainly the Kernel would not be disappointed if Mr. Juul was dealing with
SAR. Therefore, it seems perfectly logical
for him to seek the support of theYR's,
as he did pay his dues and is carried on
the membership list.
Next the Kernel is profoundly concerned with the nature of this "deal."
You are developing worry wrinkles since
Steve Driesler might have ultimate say
on Juul's vice presidential candidate and
a portion of the assembly slate. This
implies that Mr. Driesler is controlling
Mr. Juul, that Mr. Driesler has Mr. Juul
in his hip pocket. This, I believe most
people will agree, is absurd. Steve Driesler is merely a member of Thorn Pat
Juul's campaign staff, just as others probably are.
The Kernel also finds it "particularly
alarming" that Mr. Driesler "is aligned
with the Nunn Faction of the YR's."
The Kernel also sob en up to the thought
of a vice president and six assembly
members, who are Nunn influences. The
implication here is that anything favorable to Cov. Nunn is distasteful to UK
(or is it just distasteful to the Kernel?).
This, gentile editors, is ridiculous.
No other man in Kentucky politics
has ever placed a greater emphasis on
colleges and young people in his campaigns and administration than Louie
Nunn. Because of him there are over
9,000 YR's in the state. This means that
there are 9,000 college students who are
interested and active in the field of politics. Also, because of him there is a
Student Advisory Board, consisting of
representatives of every Kentucky college,
that has the opportunity to discuss problems together and report to the Covemor.
Never before have students had these
means of communications to the State
Government. But they do now. Now that
Louie Nunn is governor.
And because Thorn Pat Juul "deals"

with a club of which he is a member
(a club I may add, that is probably
one of the largest and most active on
campus); and because he has a member
of that club on his campaign staff; and
because these people are associated with
a governor who has displayed a keen
interest in the students of this state,

theKemel is "disappointed."
Perhaps the Kernel should stop

spew-

swarms of bubbling
ing forth
balderdash every time students that do
not have the "Good Kernel Seal of Approval" begin to become active in student affairs. Maybe, just maybe the Kernel should be bursting with a full heart
now that more people are leaving the
army of the apathetic and joining the
ranks of active students.

by the ignorance of most UK students
concerning this issue. Most of us here at
UK will happily stuff our faces with
grapes and say, "Why the hell don't
they unionize?", or like a YAF member
with whom I argued yesterday, will mumble something about "commie agitators"
and say, "Well, lots of those damn
are better off than I am."

About racism: When asked about racism at UK, most students will say that

any graduate of a Kentucky high school
may seek admission to UK and that this
is therefore a School of Equal Opportunity. However, the percentage of blacks
here (0.07 percent) is an indicator of a
racist state and a racist history . . . it's
ironic that the Supremes can receive an
ovation and a Wildcat Welcome at the
Coliseum, where, if I'm not mistaken,
no Black has ever represented our school
on that basketball floor

Great Fans
I would like to say thanks to the great
Kentucky basketball fans, in recognition
of their outstanding sportsmanship for the
manner in which our team was received
on their court in the most recent LSU-K- y
game. We were not present but like thousands of Louisiana Sports fans were
tuned-in- .
When Pete was introduced you
gave him a tremendous ovation and that
was before the game when the outcome
was to some extent uncertain judging
from most SEC games this year.
Although our super star 'Pistol Pete
helps pack the fans in seldom was he
or our team for that matter, so enthusiastically received. I only hope that when
your great Kentucky team visits our campus we, Baton Rouge fans, can show the
same good sportsmanship.
Wishing your team success in the
NCAA tournament I remain a fanatic
Tiger fan but also a great admirer of fair
play and sportsmanship.

On Vietnam: Again, the ignorance
scares me. Two hundred Americans die
weekly,-bumost Wildcat students see
only "Red" vs. "Red, White and Blue."
These Kentuckians would fight to the
death if Uncle Sam were to impose upon
them a black governor and state legislator, but see no evil in sending half a
million Americans to butcher helpless
people in the defense of a minority regime (only 10 percent of the Vietnamese
share the Catholic beliefs of Thieu and
Ky) and an illegal, murderous one at that.
