Many races uncontested
or without candidates

By LINDA (‘ARNES
Kernel Staff Writer

Final filing date for Student Government
tSG) elections is 5 p.m. today and many
colleges had no candidates or had un—
contested races as of Monday afternoon.

It more candidates do not file today the
Student Senate races may be postponed
until next fall, said Ann Moore. election
board cochairperson. President and vice
president eieciiuns wiii be iieid as
scheduled April 9 and 10.

Only two students had filed for president
and vice president positions and 16 per-
sons had declared senate candidacy
Monday. Last year there were 96 persons
on the election ballot with only three
senators running unopposed.

MOORE SAID the election board would
make a decision after today to determine
whether election of senators would con
tinue as scheduled. “There is no reason to
have an election for senators if there is no
race." she added.

 

 

David Mucci and David Williams were
the only candidates to file for president
and Mike Wilson and Emily Ledford for
vice president.

Arts and Sciences is the only college
where there is competition for senate
seats. Seven persons have signed up for
the five seats compared to almost 20
students last year. There are uncontested
races in all other colleges.

Nt) UNI“. has filed in the colleges of
Allied Health, Dentistry. Home
Economics. Medicine. Nursing. Social
Professions and Business Economics.

Moore said this is the lowest number of
people that have signed up for the election
since Student Senate members have been
included in the University Senate.

She cited the reason for the decline could
be attributed to lack of Publicity and
student interest. Moore said the dates for
filing could have been poorly timed since
many people were more concerned with
spring break.

EVARTS — The winds of history are

Kentucky Route 38 twists and turns its
way into this county. down along the forks
of the Cumberland River to Evarts, in
much the same way as the bulldozers and
angers of the Eastover Mining Co. slice
away the hillsides above. The com-
parison—fostered. perhaps, by the bleak
neglected surroundings here on Clover
Fork——is short-lived when you realize it is
just another oddity of the mountaineer-
miner culture.

IT DOES serve as a signpost to the
tightly stitched patchwork of church

locals which blanket eastern Kentucky and

eventually led to “The Battle of Evarts“ in
1931. a gun battle that left at least five
dead.

Still. by 1937. Roosevelt's New Deal had
given miners the right to join the “union of
their own choosing.“ so a contract was
signed between UMW and the Harlan

intense pressure from the National Labor

special US. Senate subcommittee.

relatively good times. although sporadic
gun battles remained. In the 1950‘s.
however. the coal industry and the union
both ran into trouble. The market began to
sink. mechanization was allowed into the

were thrown out of work. Stories spread of

Support EAS—again

UK's Environmental .Action Society formerly the
Environmental Awareness Society is one of many
organizations that flourished with early success. but
has met setbacks with the passing of time. though its
continued necessity remains obvious.

Getting its start with the Earth Day activities of
1970. EA5 was initially supported by more than 100
persons and helped play a significant role in
stimulating awareness and improvement in the

natural environment.

Yet as the novelty of en-

vironmental awareness erodes. supporters of the
program now total only 30. With so many worthwhile
projects requiring attention. this is unfortunate.
University community members can correct this
situation. however. as EAS builds its campaign to
”Save the Gorge " The aim of this project is to halt an
environmentally unnecessary concrete rape of the
Gorge A dam in this region will do little more than
permanantly damage flora and fauna.
Conscientious people should jump on the EAS
bandwagon while it‘s still possible to prevent this
atrocny. After the first bulldozer moves in it will be
too late to protect the beauty of a purposeful natural

surrounding.

Students abuse library facilities

The time is approaching for
many students to face the task of

problems may arise With the

frustrating problem may be

After discovering the ap-
propriate call numbers for the
sources. it is ‘hen necessary to
search for the source itself.
Although a large library is
commendable. organization is
imperative The lack of
organization may be attributed to
various reasons. yet one of the
mos: obvious and detrimental
reasons is the misuse and abuse
by the students.

which related to my topic.

— with pages missing. This
definitely limited my resources
and became an unexpected
major problem as my time also
became limited.

When students are careless
with 'he books. they deprive
otheis of these faCilities. The
library 5 intended to benefit all
of the students. however. it is
:mpossble when the students
limit their own as well as others

It is hard enough to locate a
source in the library. but to find
that the source no longer extsts
because someone — probably in a
similar Situation — ripped it off is
very discouraging and
frustrating.

The panel. established by a
Field Foundation grant. was

Miller to shine the national

which was lost by [MW in a 1964

But ‘he hearing of the panel—
formally entitled "Citizen‘s
inquiry into the BrookSide
Strike" which included former
Hklahoma Senator Fred Harris
among its members—like the
strike itself. didn't go according
to plan.

Originally. it was to take

after the meeting Wertz said he
felt the real battle was not bet‘

and the union. "and I think the
key is the Duke Power Co."

Duke Power. the country's

bought the Eastover Mining Co
in 1970 to help stabilize its coal
supply Since the BrookSide

mines 50.000 ton per month
average production has been
almost entirely lost because on
more than one occaSion union

But as of Jan. 22. Dike Power's
coal reserve had dropped from its
regular Today supply down to 39
days—a fact the utility stressed
in detail as it filed suit in a nor-

‘Grass roots'
APA urges party reform

and good government

By \'|(‘l\'l BINGIIAM
Kernel Staff Writer

“Assembly for Political
Action (APA). a combination
good government and party
reform group, runs on the
premise that if people don‘t get
involved, the government will
screw them over," said steering
committee member Nancy Daly.

APA tries to maintain the
liberal. progressive community
as a viable political force, Daly
said.

“APA has shown itself as a
hard-working, responsible
organization that provides a
permanent platform for liberal
politics. It has worked its way
intoa place in Fayette County as
a legitimate political force." said
Scott 'I‘. Wendelsdorf, APA
chairperson.

APA BEGAN January. 1973,
after an antiwar march on
Inauguaration Day. Daly said
APA gave McGovern supporters
a chance to reunite and continue
as politically active Democrats.

After the virtual disappearance
of liberal Democrats between
1968 and l972. the APAsawa need
to keep these people together. she
said.

The organization‘s first year
has been a fairly active one. Daly
said it played a major role in
bringing about precinct elections
in Fayette County.

ELECTIONS ARE held to
choose the Democratic Party
Central Executive Committee
starting at the precinct level.

Because Fayette County
redrew precinct boundaries in
December. 1972, the elections
were postponed. However, a
year later APA pressured the
party to hold the elections and
they were held this January.

APA took great interest in the
precinct elections because it is

-very strong on “grass roots"

politics. They have organized
around issues before they
become nationally prominent,
Wendelsdorf said.

llE SAll) the importance of
early organization is that it
allows groups like APA to inform
the public of the issues before
officials give their opinions.

APA is currently involved in
changing its newsletter from a
monthly meetings announcement
to a “politically stimulating
publication that can reach a
wider number of people." said
Daly.

“The newsletter is an ex»
periment in political and jour~
nalistic consciousness—raising."
she said.

'I‘IIE I)EI\I()(‘R.-\Tl(‘ Party
holds a midterm national con-
vention in December in Kansas
City. Daly said it is important to
elect reform Democrats since a
national party charter will be
drawn up.

“Hopefully APA can choose at
least one of three convention
delegates from the Sixth
Congressional District.“ Daly
said. “Convention decisions will
determine how open the
Democratic Party will be in the
future.“

Many APA members are
students. Daly said. but the
organization is a city wide group
and extends beyond the
University community.

WHEN ASKED what APA has
to offer students. Wendelsdorf
said “students can get into ac-
tivist politics through the party
structure. APA has broken down
many barriers that are en-
countered by those just starting
in reform politics."

APA will hold a forum on the
NorthSouth Expressway in late
April to focus on the social and
political effects the highway will
have on Lexington.
