University names Ivy

watchdog for athletics

By DICK GABRIEL
Assistant Managing Editor

University Athletic Department
officials this month appropriated
$3.58 million for the 197647 athletic
budget. And they just hired someone
who will make sure they stick to it.

The new budgetary watchdog is
Larry Ivy. who just stepped into a
newly-created position.

"it's called ‘assistant athletic
director— finance‘, commonly
referred to as business manager,"
Ivy said in his new office in
Memorial Coliseum.

“I‘ll be responsible for
preparation of routine analysis of
the budget affairs. expenditure of
money against the budget, all
phases of team travel—anything
financial comes through this office.“
he said.

Ivy moves to the athletic depart-
ment after a seven-year stint as
housing office director. He also will
be responsible for preparation and
compliance with all game contracts,
handling guara ntees for other teams
playing at L'K and monies UK is
guaranteed by other universities for
playing away from home.

"I'll also be handling the civic
center contra ct and reservations at
the Coliseum. for concerts or
whatever." Ivy said.

The new athletic budget is up five
per cent over last year and it will be
lvy's job to see that not a penny is

squandered. "I think it's a realistic
budget. I think we can live with it,"
said Ivy, who admitted he was
speaking with limited knowledge.

Indeed. He‘s been on the job only
a week, but Ivy has already gotten
his feet wet. He accompanied the
football team on its road trip to
Kansas to see that things like hotel
and bus reservations went smoothly.

“The new job is more important
on football trips." Ivy said. “There‘s
more contact with othe other school.
Things vary."

Although it‘s too soon to tell, Ivy
said he doesn‘t think the athletic
financial structure is something he
will have to rescue and revive.
“Let's see, they've been in business
how many years?" he said with a
smile. “I don't foresee any major
changes. We may change our pur-
chasing procedure so we can better
control our expenditures, to make
sure we‘re following NCAA
regulations."

Ivy is the second assistant athletic
director hired by the University over
the last two years. Frank Ham. who
moved into the first position last
year, said he doesn't think lvy‘s new
job will change his duties.

The new position was created
because the duties involved were
handled by Jan Schmitz, who
resigned last summer, and Louise
Grlchrest. who will retire next
month. Instead of reassrgning the

PHILADELPHIA — President
Ford and Jimmy Carter debated
taxes, unemployment and the
measures of leadership last night.
The Democratic nominee
demanded an end to ”government
by stalemate,“ the Republican
President said he offers per-
formance, not just promises.

For 82 minutes, they answered
questions and traded barbs. Then
the sound system broke down. And
on the stage of the antique Walnut
Street Theater, the White House
rivals were suddenly silenced, cut
off from the vast, nationwide
television audience they sought to
persuade.

In blue suits, on a blue set, they
stood and waited. It took 27 minutes
to get them back on the air.

So they wrapped it up on overtime,
with summations that were, in
essence, reviews of their standard
campaign speeches.

“We have suffered because we
haven‘t had leadership in this ad-
ministration," Carter said. “We’ve
had a government of stalemate.“ It

is a theme he hits from every
platformwand one he raised at
intervals during the debate, the first
of three between the White House
rivals.

Carter said the nation needs
unity after a time of division,
cooperation between Congress and
the White House after a time of
confrontation. He had earlier said
Ford had vetoed legislation at a rate
not seen since the Civil War, but the
President said that was playing fast
and loose with facts*and at the
same time contended his vetoes
have sa ved the tax-payers $9 billion.

Ford said a major campaign issue
is trust. “A President should not be
all things to all people," he said. “A
President should be the same thing
to all people." He already had ac-
cused Carter of imprecision and
wavering on economic issues in-
cluding taxes.

In an earlier exchange, Carter had
said that if he was to be tied with all
acts of a Congress in which he never
served, Ford should be identified
with the administration of Richard
M. Nixon, in which he did serve.

jobs to other Athletic Department
employes. athletic officials con-
solidated them under one position.

“I think the area Mr. Ivy works
within and the area I work within
are certainly related, but his duties
don't supplant anything I do," said
Ham. who works chiefly with the
Blue~White fund and the ballgame
parking program.

While the housing and athletic

departments have a few things in »

common. Ivy will be the first to
admit there are some striking dif-
ferences.

"This is a big challenge,“ he said.
“There‘s a lot of action. And the
attention of the University stays on
the athletic program, whether that‘s
good or bad."

But despite the pressure, Ivy is
happy with the change.

“I definitely feel it‘s a
promotion,“ he said (not just a
lateral shift l. “I always had it in the

back of my mind, trying to be in- '

volved from the working standpoint
with the athletic department. When
this job opened up, I was happy to
get it.“

If you want to watch girls wrap
each other in toilet paper, race each
other in inner tubes and throw eggs
at guys, then the Sigma Chi Derby is
for you.

This Sunday, Sigma Chi fraternity
will hold its 25th annual Derby, and
according to Derby coordinator
Dave Woodrow, you don‘t want to
miss it. “It’s hard to describe; I
guess you could compare it to Mardi
Gras,“ he said.

Woodrow, affectionately known as
“Derby Daddy," explained what the
Derby involves. “It‘s a week-long
affair in which all sororities try to
accumulate points by various
means," he said.

One way a sorority may earn
points is through the Derby chase,
where sorority pledges try to obtain
the felt derby hats that fraternity
members carry with them. Each
derby is worth one point.

Another popular event is the quest
for the “Secret Sig," a person other
than a Sigma Chi, whose identity is
sought out by the sororities. This
year‘s Secret Sig was Bill Bablitz,
manager of Baskin-Robbins.

The “most prestigious“ award,
according to Woodrow, is the Spriit
Award. Five anonymous in-house
Sigma Chi‘s judge the sororities all
week on their enthusiasm. “It‘s the

hardest (event) to judge, and we try
to pick five members who can be
unbiased about it," he said.

The week's activities culminate on
Derby Sunday when sororities
compete against each other in
events such as the tug-of—war, egg
throw, inner tube roll, sack race,
deck~a-pledge, wrap-a-pledge,
mystery event, coach’s event and
queen contest.

Contestants for Derby Queen are
nominated by each sorority and are
judged by faculty members and
administrators on the basis of poise
and appearance as well as the an-
swer to the question they are asked.

“During the late '505 and early
‘605, the queen was picked according
to how close she came to the current

Iiss America's measurements,"
Woodrow said.

Sororities are given points ac-
cording to how well they do in each
event. The sorority with the most
points for the entire week, including
Sunday‘s events, wins the Derby.

Michael Palm, assistant dean of
students and interfraternity council
advisor, views the Derby as “a real
good event." “It gets the pledges
involved right off the bat, and it's
good for the Sigma (Thi’s getting to
meet girls from other sororities," he
said. ‘

Putting together the Derby is no
easy task. as Woodrow. in his second

University employes began their
support for this years United Way
campaign with a luncheon yesterday in
the grand ballroom of the Student Center.

Almost 300 people heard President Otis
Singletary, co-chairman for the Plus 1,000
Club for the United Way of the Bluegrass,
begin the drive with a brief, laconic
speech.

”I‘m not going to give you any jazzed up
‘professional fund raiser speech‘,"
Singletary said, ”mainly because I don‘t
know how."

“I'm just goingto tell you why I support
the United Way. I believe quite simply
that the work of the 20-plus agencies
benefitting from the drive make
Lexington and Fayette County a better
place for us to live.“

Singletary said the University is a most
intergal part of the drive because of the
size of the campus in relation to the
community.

“The University is the most significant
and dynamic enterprise in this
geographical area," he said. “I‘d like to
see the University do what it did last
year~ take the lead in the drive and show
the community that the University takes
its role as good neighbor seriously."

“I‘m proud of what the University has
done and I‘m looking forward to seeing us
take our place as leader in this en-
terprise," he said.

Last year, UK was honored as the single
largest contributor to the United Way,
donating over 394.000. According to Dr.
Harold Brinkley, chairman of the UK
campaign, th's year‘s goal is $100,000.

E. L. “Buddy" Langley, president of
General Telephone of Kentuckyanda vice

president for the United Way of the
Bluegrass, followed Singletary as a
featured speaker.

Langley stepped to the podium and told
the crowd that "the same person must
have written our speeches," so he folded
his speech and put it in his pocket.

He proceeded to tell the audience that
the United Way is an aid to the agencies it
serves in that it “puts it all together so the
agencies‘ needs can be balanced."

Four UK employees, Judy Griffin of the
placement service, Mariana Graham of
dietatics and nutrition in the med center,
Gail Amonette from home economics and
Anna Bolling from the Office of the Dean
of Students, were each asked to describe
visits they made last week to various
United Way agencies.

The audience was also shown a short
film which explained exactly how United
Way funds are distributed.

year as coordinator, explained. “As
Derby Daddy, I help decide
everything from which bands will
play to the design on the Derby t-
shirts. [order the derby (hats) and
plan the events," he said.

Thenthere are the Derby coaches.
who help sorority pledges prepare
for the different events. Four or five
Sigma Chi‘s are. designated to each
sorority and practice with them
about a week before the Derby.

Toby Burke, who is coaching Chi
Omega sorority, talked about his
two years as coach. “It helps
sorority pledges get to know each
other better, plus, it gives a lot of
freshmen the chance to get
acquainted with a fraternity," he
said.

Burke said that although his
fraternity spends a lot of time and
energy trying to make The Derby a
success, everyone involved has a lot
of fun. “We want everybody to have
a good time and enjoy the Friday
night dance. as well as Sunday's
festivities.” he said.

The Sigma Chi Derby is not unique
to the South. It was started at UCLA,
Woodrow said, and every Sigma Chi
chapter in the country adopted the
idea.

Sarah Jenkins, assistant dean of
students, recalled her sorority days
at Hanover College. “I really liked
the Derby there," she said. “I got
some battle scars from it, but I sure
did enjoy it,"

As Panhellenic advisor, Jenkins
gets together with Woodrow before
the Derby to make sure the games
are not in any way humiliating to
women. She also performs
miscellaneous duties such as
judging the queen candidates.

Jenkins sees the Derby as a
positive thing, and says that “it
develops a sense of unity within
pledge groups."

Woodrow emphasized his ap-
preciation for sororities’ efforts.
“It‘s not just a b'g egotrip for us,"
he said. “We realize all the trouble
they go to."

Though he will be glad to see his
Derby problems and responsibilities
end, Woodrow anticipates the Derby
as “a great time.“ ”Hopefully we‘ll
have another 25 like the past 25," he
said.

 

   
   
  
    
   
    
   
  
  
  
  
   
  
   
     
  
  
   
 
   
 
   
   
    
    
   
      
 
  
    
  
 
     
   
    
  
  
   
      
    
    
  
   
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
 
    
 
 
    
  
  
 
 
 
  
 
 
  
  
 
  
 
 
   

 

    
   
   
  
 
  
  
    
  
 
  
  
   
  
 
 
 
 
  
  
   
       

 

Press, Schorr

Daniel Schorr and the American press were
saved a legal mess when the House Ethics
Committee voted to release Schorr from

criminal prosecution.

Schorr is the CBS newsman who obtained a
copy of the socalled Pike Committee report,
detailing illicit FBI and CIA activities. The

New York weekly. The Village Voice. also was
critical of Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger.

’ he Ethics Committee subpoened Schorr for
refusing to reveal his source in obtaining the
document. Schorr has justifiably maintained
that if he were forced to reveal the source, his
First Amendment rights would be violated.

Schorr‘s source is open to prosecution in the
committee‘s view because the House voted to

Western democracy not suitable

to stark realities in South Asia

By BIRAF K. SlMIlA
Prime Minister Indira Gandhi of
India has been the butt of a lot of
recrimination in the Kernel lately —
I refer specifically to your Sept. 1
editorial and Mr. Downey's com-
ments in the Sept. 5 issue. You end

 

commentary

 

your editorial by stating
that “...India can no longer claim to
be the world's largest democracy.” I
gather you are implying that for the
last 29 years India has had this
“honor.”

Yet you yourself mention
that “...in its 29 year history as an
independent nation, India has been
constantly plagued by starvation
and inadequate living conditions."
Well, how do you tell the starving
peasant that he should rejoice
because he is living in a democracy?
“Democracy" is not going to
provide him with the basic
amenities of food, clothing, and
shelter that are the birth-right of
every human being. Parliamentary
democracy, in the western form, is
not suitable to the stark realities of
South Asia; and if you had any
personal experience with the con-
ditions there you would not hesitate
to agree. As for American
“democracy," perhaps perhaps the
50 per centofAmericans who are not
going to vote in the coming
presidential elections will have
something to day about that

Through Ms. Gandhi's efforts.
there is a semblance of order in
India today and the government is
respected. Food prices have been
reduced drastically and inflation is

 

 

 

no longer the problem that it was.
Corruption, that common ailment of
most underdeveloped countries, has
been reduced and there is new hope
for an honest bureaucracy.

As a simple yet profound example,
you can see in India today that
people wait quietly in line for train
tickets and the trains arrive on
schedule. The pandemonium usually
associated with lnoian train stations
and the usual snickering about
“Indiantime” are things ofthe past.

As for Mr. Downey's comments,
which reeked of political naivete and
a sexist attitude, I beg to differ on
two points. Firstly, the qualities of
"gentleness and peacefulness" are
not enough to solve India‘s
problems; stern measures, such as

themes-Ms. Gandhi hastaken; are

needed. Secondly, women,
historically, may have not appeared

 

war~like; this is because they have
always been suppressed and have
never had the opportunity to attain
political power. So to expect solely
compassion and gentleness from
women with power is taking too
much for granted, to say the least.

Ms. Gandhi‘s political restrictions
have little effect, if any, on the
masses; it is only the westernized
pseudo-intellectuals that decry the
”loss of democracy." The villager
sees that he can buy rice at half the
price of what it was in the past
month, he finds that he can get
bureaucratic attention without
having to resort to bribery, and he
rejoices —« he can only join me in
exclaiming, “Hurrah for Indira!"

But it isn‘t hard to justify writing

We are consumers of many things,

Smith to announce decision

on Rhodesia majority rule

SALISBURY, Rhodesia (AP) — Prime
Minister Ian Smith will tell the nation Friday
whether his white minority government will
yield to international pressure and hand over
power to Rhodesia’s black majority under a
plan pushed by Secretary of State Henry A.
Kissinger. .

Smith said his ruling all-white Rhodesian
Front party decided at a meeting Thursday
whether it will accept the proposals for
transition to majority rule made by Kissin-
ger in meetings with Smith last week. But he
said the decision will not be revealed until
his radio and television address Friday
night.

Informed sources close to the party said
the caucus accepted the proposals put to
them by Smith. But there was no indication if
they were the same as those made by

Egypt pledges arms

Kissinger at their meeting in Pretoria, South
Africa.

Smith reportedly told Kissinger he would
recommend approval of the plan. However,
he must also win agreement from the
Rhodesian Front.

The party has a 75 per cent majority in the
Geseat parliament. It rejected two earlier
British proposals for transferring power
from the country‘s 278,000 whites to its 6.4
million blacks.

There was “realistic talking from all of the
members" at the caucus, Smith told

with Kissinger again, Smith said, “I don’t
think that will be necessary. That was never
part of any agreement."

Lebanon swears in president

CHTOURA. Lebanon (AP) — Protected by
Syrian troops and armor, Elias Sarkis was
sworn in Thursday as the new Christian
president of war~torn Lebanon. In a gesture
of support, Palestinian guerrilla leader
Yasir Arafat said he would tell his forces to
cease fire.

Arafat said: “I shall order my forces to
cease fire on all Lebanese territory and
avoid answering any provocations...1 hope
the coming days will bring the beginning of
the end of the agony of both our people,
Lebanese and Palestinian.”

Another pledge of support for Sarkis came
from Egyptian President Anwar Sadat.

He was quoted as saying he is ready to give
Sarkis “the heaviest and most modern
weapons in Egypt’s arsenal” to help him end
the 17-month civil war, but would not send
troops.

As Sarkis took the oath of office in this
Syrianoccupied town, right-wing Christians
and the alliance of leftist Moslems and
Palestinian guerrillas continued to battle
along the urban front dividing Beirut, the
capital.

Sarkis pledged to end the civil war in a
way that would insure Lebanon’s interests
and also safeguard the Palestinian cause.

“This, however, requires an immediate
cessation of hostilities and a resort to
dialogue," he added.

“I shall spare no effort to help the
Palestinian guerrilla movement regain its
homeland. The differences that touched off
the civil war should be dealt with positively,
rescue Lebanon from the current disaster
without hurting the Palestinian rights,” he
said.

Crime rate rises three per cent;

increase in theft pushed the cies. Other studies have noted thatthe3percentover-

 

nation’s crime rate up 3 per
cent during the first six
months of this year, as
compared with the same
period a year ago, the FBI
reported Thursday.

Although the six other
crime categories declined, an
11 per cent surgein thefts was
enough to produce an over-all
increase in the crimes
measured by the FBI’s
Uniform Crime Reports.

Thefts were up in cities,
suburbs and rural areas alike
and in all parts of the country.

The FBI figures are based
on crimes reported to 9,160

shown that the number of
crimes actually committed
far exceeds the number
reported to police.

all increase was much less
than the 13 per cent boost
reported for the first half of
1975.

Harrises enter not guilty plea

BERKELEY. Calif [AP]—
William and Emily Harris,
the radical couple who joined
Patricia Hearst in a cross-
country fugitive flight,
pleaded innocent today to
charges they kidnaped the
young heiress.

Their arraignment on a 15%
count criminal complaint
came just one day before

federal court to be sentenced
for a bank robbery con-
viction.

Judge Wilmont Sweeney set
a preliminary hearing for
Oct. 7, but it was expected
that a grand jury would issue
an indictment which would
supercede the criminal
complaint. That would make
the Oct. 7 hearing in

Hearst herself 8085 into municipalcourt unnecessary.

Carroll to set special legislature date

FRANKFURT [APl—The special session
of the General Assembly will not start until
after Thanksgiving and will probably ad-
journ before Christmas, Gov. Julian Carroll
said Thursday.

Carroll told a news conference he will
meet with the legislative leadership the first
week of November to set a date.

Carroll said he has told legislators he will
not call the session until all interim com-
mittees have completed their work on
proposed legislation and are ready to make

recommendations to the full General
Assembly.

He said legislators have told him con-
vening the session before Thanksgiving
would be “a little early" and would cut down
time needed to consider bills.

Carroll indicated earlier this month in a
letter sent to all state legislators that the
session could be convened as early as Nov. 8

if the committees completed their work in
time.
