I.O.U.'s
extend

deadfine

By RON MITCHELL
Kernel Staff Writer

ALTHOUGH THIS IS the last day to pay
registration fees, students with severe
financial cases are able to obtain a short
extension on the deadline by signing
promissory notes

A total of 264 students, mostly veterans,
have been granted promissory notes thus
far this semester, Henry Owen, University
controller, said Thursday.

The length of the promissory note before
it matures depends upon the individual
case, although all notes must be paid
before Nov. 6.

“MOST OF THE notes are due in Oc-
tober, since most of the veterans do not
receive their first check until the middle of
the month," Owen said. '

He explained that most of the students
allowed to use the promissory note plan
are either veterans expecting government
checks in the near future or students
receiving scholarships that have not
received any money yet.

However, some students who only have
part of the payment are allowed to sign

are able to prove the remainder is for-
thcoming soon, Owen said.

THE PROMISSORY notes to date total
$88,130 in fees and only a small percentage
of students default when the notes are due,
he noted.

The promissory notes’ due date is such
that if payment is not made, the student’s
registration can be voided, preventing the
student from receiving grades.

Students failing to pay fees or sign
promissory notes today will be reported to
the registrar’s office as being delinquent
and will have their registration voided.

UNIVERSITY POLICY concerning fee
payment is such that, if fees are not paid
by the first day of classes, then the student
is financially delinquent, and if after 30
days from the first day of classes the fees
are still outstanding, the student's
registration is voided.

Owen was unable to estimate how many
students have failed to pay registration
fees as there are many factors to consider
before a final tally can be made.

/

“You have stuaents who pre-registered
but never showed, some have withdrawn
and not notified the registrar‘s office and
those whose withdrawals are being
processed. Since all of these factors are to
be considered, it will be some time before
we know exactly how many registrations
will be voided."Owen concluded.

Should a university professor be allowed to while y,
away his time, guarded by tenure? ,

For years, UK has said, in effect, “yes.” Of course,
UK explains that a prof with tenure can indeed be
expelled for “misconduct,” roughly equivalent to
“high crimes and misdemeanors” of Presidential
impeachment fame. The fact that few, if any, profs in
this country ever see their tenure interrupted hints
that “misconduct” is seldom uncovered.

Regardless of the reward aspect of tenure, the fact
remaim that once attained, tenure protects a prof
until he reaches mandatory retirement age. He will
continue to draw a paycheck, based on his position
imtead of his service to the University.

In these years of student unrest, the tenure doctrine
has come under considerable fire, and UK is not
unaffected by the call to abolish tenure.

A Kernel story (“Tenure ‘cause for concern’, Sept.
27, page 1) pointed out 62 per cent of UK’s faculty has
attained tenure. This means that only 38 per cent of
the profs on campus are subject to dismissal for most
any reason. If a prof with tenure isn’t doing the proper
job in the classroom, he remains, while an un-tenured , wz
teacher can expect to be leaving post haste. "I’M” -

Proponents of tenure stress that the rule is needed to I OPEN
insure that experienced educators are motivated to MVSELF
remain at the University. If tenure is the only benefit TO VESPN R
UK can offer, it is sadly lacking in performance of its '
educational duties.

Instead, if UK were to establish first-class academic
programs, competent professors would stay on to
remain a part of a vital student research service.
Tenure, that apple-pie—in-the-sky security blanket,
wouldn’t be needed.

Free of tenure, incompetent or lazy teachers can be
removed and replaced by instructors concerned with
the quality of instruction which a university can offer.

No tenure allows for no loafing, no incompetence,
and, fortunately, little slippage in pursuit of academic
excenence.

Lexington papers ignore

Bad Slde 0' the moon II General Telephone strike

ByTPaqu Blg erstatt

_

 

There has been a strike going on in
.exington for over two months now, but
mm the coverage in the Lexington papers
ou wouldn’t know it.

About 1,200 Communications Workers of
merica (CWA) members seek increased
ages and benefits and other contract
1anges from the General Telephone Co.
7 Kentucky. Yet, the average person in
iwn, if they even know about the strike,
links the strike has been settled.

This is indeed surprising. One of the
ost common complaints people seem to
we against this city is the horrid
lephone service.

Just to refresh some memories...
Remember dialing your best friend‘s
tone number and hearing, “I'm sorry,
it the number you have dialed is not in
rvice at this time."

And how about the time when you
-eded some assistance from you operator
Id she answers after 10-20 rings.

By all means, let’s not forget the long-
distance phone calls charged to you from
places you’ve never heard of.

The strike has not seemed to improve or
diminish the quality of telephone service to
Lexington customers. GenTel supervisors
and management personnel in and around
Lexington, Morehead, Ashland and
Hazard continue to man the switchboards
and perform service functions. It‘s about
time they had some male operators,
anyway!

Maintenance may be falling behind
schedule. and the strike has delayed in-
stallation of about 20 phone booths and new
electronic communications lines in the
new Commonwealth Stadium.

All in all, things appear to be normal.
However, when you consider the level of
normalcy, there is room for much
dissatisfaction.

All in all, things appear to be normal.
However, when you consider the level of
normalcy, there is room for much

dissatisfaction. The people of Lexington
must consider the issues broached by the
striking workers.

The CWA members are demanding a
wage comparable to that of South Central
Bell Telephone Co. workers with the same
jobs (an increase in 12.4 per cent). A top-
rated Lexington operator salary gets $116
a week. But in Winchester, a some-what
smaller city, a top-rated operator would
recei $143.50 a week.

Other demands are a parking allowance
for the workers (the downtown rates are
from 85 cents to $1.50 per day), increased
vacation benefits, and a contract
agreement for an “agency shop", which
would force all craft employees to pay
union dues as a condition of employment
with the company.

The major contention between the two,
according to union vice-president Phillip
Maffett, is the wage-benefits package.
GenTel, along with the US. government,
hates to give more power (money) to the
people.

The last official negotiation was during
the first week of August. Since then there
have been more unofficial meetings
between the union and GenTel. Both sides
remain firm in their demands and the
strike could go on ad nauseum.

On Dec. 31, 1973 at 12:00 a.m., the city
county merger will be legally in effect. No
first class city can do without an adequate.
efficient phone system.

The GenTel Co. has given poor service in
the past and continues to do so. Here is an
opportunity for the people in Lexington to
shed their small town apathy.

Like any public service, GenTel is af-
fected by the opinion of the people they
serve. Lexingtonians, by expressing their
dissatisfaction with the phone company
will possibly motivate this sluggiSh
establishment to settle the strike and
improve its services.

Then perhaps Lexington will begin to be
less of the country town it is.

ROME —— We know very little about
the future, but one thing seems pretty
sure: the world population will double
its present size in thirty years.

The problems which will ensue are
appalling. It took hundreds of genera-
tions for mankind to reach the present
3.6 billion people and a yearly rate of
production/consumption approaching
three trillion dollars. Now man must
accommodate on this vulnerable planet
yet as many again.

The Herculean task of building a
second, bigger world infrastructure——
from houses, schools and cathedrals
and possibly entire cities, to industries,
harbors, expressways and all the rest
—and of multiplying three or four-
fold the production of food, goods and
services in such a short time is further
compounded by the necessity of dis-
tributing wealth and income more
equitably among the globe’s inhabi-
tants.

It is a sign of the disorders of this
epoch that no relevant body of opinion
has so far fully recognized this chal-
lenge. People are loath to face up to
questions which seem beyond human
comprehension and control, or to
imagine that this period of extraordi-
nary technological achievements and
progress may end in disaster.

1972 may well be the pivotal year
of awakening. More realistic analyses
were started of the cumulative effects
of man’s indiscriminate exploitation of
nonrenewable geological stocks, his
accumulation of pollution, waste and
detrita, decimation of plants and ani-
mals, spoilage of nature, and invention
of practically ultimate means of self-
destruction.

Whatever the intrinsic merits of the
M.I.T. research on the limits to human
growth, it has fulfilled a remarkable
function in this sense; and in the wake
_of The Club of Rome initiative already

a few points of understanding are
looming.

One is the necessity to organize the
management of critical naturalresour-
ces on the basis of global strategies—
the same applying also to climate,
space, the oceans and energy. Another
is that the human animal must ac-
quire greater ecological wisdom if he
is going to survive among the other
living forms.

Another point is that the human
species cannot go on growing anar-
chically or exponentially beyond cer-
tain limits on this finite planet. Its
growth must be selective, oriented,
govemed—for equilibrium must be
maintained between human society
and its habitat. But this external
equilibrium, however necessary, can-
not be attained if society is itself in
a state of internal disequilibrium—
social justice, and peace, having an
essential ecological value as well.
Since man has become the virtual
agent of change on earth, his is now
the responsibility of maintaining a
stable state of equilibrium on it.

However, our understanding of man
and his world in the technological age
has made just a few faltering steps.
Further research and meditation are
needed. Two Club of Rome projects
under way may be noted in this con-
text:

The first is a model of the world
system :hat recognizes the specific
characteristics, standards, dynamics,
goals and goal-setting mechanisms of
its main component regions. As in re-
ality all large regions or groups of
nations increasingly interact among
themselves, likewise in the model they
are conSIdered as interdependent sub-
systems. Thanks to this project, one
may rediscover that mankind's growth
limits are narrower than the world’s
physical dimensions; and also that all
human groups are so bound together
on this small planet that none of them
can escape a common destiny.

The second project attempts to an-
alyze whether and how it will be pos-
sible to provide a decent life for the
swollen ranks of humankind. The total
system Will again be broken down into
its different regional components, and
the productive activities studied with
various sets of criteria. This approach
would make it possible to explore
how the industrial establishment could
be rationalized on a worldwide basis,
and the over-all human, material and
financial resources mobilized to an-
swer these crucial questions.

 

The scope of the study may be too
ambitious —- at this stage. But the
challenge is so dramatic and urgent
that exceptional efforts are required
-——before the problems become too big
and too complicated to be handled at
all.

Child labor 'sweaishop' reborn

By RONALD B. TAYLOR

THE NEW YORK TIMES NEWS SERVICE

VISALIA, Calif—“It don’t hurt the
kids to pick a few peppers. It’s against
the law, I realize, but hell, they been
doin’ it for years.” The California
farmer was talking about sixty chil-
dren under 12 years of age who were
working alongside their parents in his
nearby chili fields.

The work was hard, the pay low. A
family of six or eight could make only
$10 or $15 working from dawn until
the 100 degree midday heat drove
them from the long rows. The smaller
children were fetching and carrying
and picking a little. The 9- and 10-year-
olds worked like adults. Some of them
even carried the big, 45-pound sacks
out to the grader, a quarter mile away.

This is child labor. This is the ex-
ploitation of children for economic
motives, and such exploitation is com-
mon to all farm states where crops
are harvested by hand. Each year an
estimated 800,000 children 16 years
and under work on the nation’s farms,
legally and illegally.

No farm is a good place for chil-
dren to work. The jobs are often dan-
gerous, the pay is low, the working
conditions are poor. The National Safe—
ty Council rates farm labor the third
most dangerous occupation. A thirteen-
state study of fatal tractor accidents
disclosed that 12 per cent of the 789
victims were children between the
ages of 5 and 14.

Poverty is the farm worker's most
serious problem. Seasonal farm work

pays so little that the families seldom
have enough to eat, their housing is
substandard, and, because the chil-
dren must wcrk if the family is to
survive, their education is sporadic
at best.

A few states, recognizing the ad-
verse effects of child labor on the
farm, have passed regulatory laws.
But at harvest time few public offi-
cials in rural areas take the child
labor laws seriously.

In California a child must be 12
to work legally. Yet a rural California
judge fined an employer only $33 for
allowing an 8~year-old to drive a
tractor. The judge agreed the job was
dangerous, but he justified the small
fine by saying, “I was driving a trac-
tor when 1 was 8. l have a strong be-
lief that 90 per cent of our delinquency
is caused by the fact the state has
legislated children out of jobs.”

Each spring Oregon state employ-
ment recruiters go into the schools to
tnlist children into labor “platoons" to
help farmers “save” the Willamette
Valley bean and berry harvests. in
Louisiana’s Tangipahoa Parish migrant
education officials established special
afternoon school hours so “daddy's
little helpers" could be free to work
mornings in the strawberry harvest.

I talked to one mother in Florida
‘Who explained school officials there
were most cooperative: “They know
we’s up against it (financially) so
they’ll let the kids out of school to
work a day or two when 1 need 'em."

The American Friends Service Com~
mittee made a five state study of child
labor and concluded: "The child labor

scene in the 1970’s is reminiscent
of the sweatshop scene in 1938.”
The report brought howls of pro-
test. Rural editors almost in unison
asked: What better place to learn the
lessons of toil than the open fields
first plowed by westering pioneers?

This is the myth. It is used to ob-.
scure the fact that the American farm
has always depended upon a cheap
source of labor. The family farmer
used his own children, In the South
the cheap labor was supplied by slaves.
Out West farmers imported Chinese
“coolies” and Mexican “peons” and
Filipino "boys" and Dust Bowl “okies.”

Efforts to halt the exploitation, to
enforce even the weakest of the child
labor laws meet with resistance. In
Ohio the U.S. Department of Labor
had to resort to economic blackmail
in the effort to end the illegal use of
children while school was in session.

Farm workers want their children
in school. not in the fields. They want
their children to have enough to eat,
to have a sense of childhood and
growing up. They only work their chil-
dren because they must. And they will
have to work them until such time
as all adult farm workers have
enough collective power to force
their employers to pay a living wage.
They and their children have the right
to a decent life. It is time to recog-
nize that the farm is not a good
place for children to work, just as no
factory, no mine. no cotton mill is a
good place for children to work.

Key issues presented

Koinonia House
features forum

Do you have one free hour a
week, specifically from noon to 1
pm. on Tuesday? This coming
week, you might try spending this
time at the Koinonia House
luncheon forum.

The eight-week luncheon
program spoonsored by the
United Campus Ministry (UCM)
offers both lunch and guest
speaker usually from the
university community.

“THE SPEAKER TALKS on
his particular subject for 15 to 20
minutes," said Roberta James,
receptionist-secretary for UCM.
”Members of the audience may
then ask questions or react to
what has been said for the
remainder of the period.“

The luncheons are informal
and are served buffet style.
Students are not charged, but
anyone else may offer donation if
he wishes. The donations
adequately cover the costs for the
food. The speakers are not paid,

Grand

“but give freely of their time. No
one has ever turned us down,"
said James.

The theme for this semester's
forum is “The Dollar and
Human Hurts." Topics include
inflation, the job situation, and
economic conditions at UK.

THIS IS THE third year for
the Koinonia House program. “It
grew out of the need for in-
teraction between faculty, staff,
and students at UK," said the
Rev. Ed Payne Miller, Jr., active
minister for UCM. “Our luncheon
forum demonstrates service for
the university, opens dialogue
between students and faculty,
and helps present key issues to
the people of the university."

“The luncheon sessions are
part of our way of keeping the
university and the church in
touch with one another and
listening to one another,“ stated
James.

Agnew graft probe

By LEE LINDER
Associated Press Writer

BALTIMORE. Md. —-— A Special
federal grand jury opened an
unprecedented investigation
Thursday, a political graft probe
of Vice President Spiro T. Agnew.
At the same time, Agnew's
lawyers planned to go to court to
stop the inquiry.

The grand jury met for more
than seven hours before ad-
journing until next week.

ONE OI“ THE lawyers, Judah
Best, said in Washington that a
motion would be filed, possibly as
early as the first of next week.
seeking a temporary injunction
to halt the grand jury
proceedings. Such a move had
been expected from the lawyers
Thursday morning before the
jury session started.

“We are going to file,“ Best
said. adding he did not feel that
Agnew‘s argument against the
grand jury probe would be hurt
by filing for an injunction after
the investigation was under way.

Three witnesses appeared
before the grand jury during the
first hours of work, but only one
of the witnesses could be iden-
tified. He was William J. Muth,
former vice president of the
Baltimore City Council, now the
office manager of an engineering
consulting firm, Hurst-Rosche
Engineers, Inc. Muth has been an
Agnew fund raiser.

”THE INVESTIGATION of the
vice president is a lot of bull,"
Muth said as he left the federal
courthouse after testifying.

Agnew was notified last month
by federal prosecutors that he
was under investigation for
possible criminal violation of tax,
extortion, bribery and conspiracy
laws. He has insisted he is in-
nocent of any wrongdoing.

The allegations against him
center on kickbacks from con—
tractors during the 19605 when
Agnew was chief executive of
Baltimore County and then

governor of Maryland. There also
have been published reports
which Agnew has denied that he
received illegal cash after
becoming vice president in 1969.

IN A RELATED development.
three CBS television crewmen
were detained by federal mar-
shals after they were found on the
roof of an eight-story building
next door to the federal court
house where the grand jury was
sitting. Marshals said the men
were filming the court house
from an angle at which they could
see the grand jury room.

At one point, US. Atty. George
Beall, who is conducting the
probe, personally questioned the
men who were identified only as
Herbert Alston, Al Colby and Dan
Bowers. The men were released
after several hours of questioning
but their film was confiscated.

The grand jury session was
being conducted under conditions
of strictest secrecy. The
corridors leading to the grand
jury room were sealed off by
federal marshals so newsmen
could not see who was coming or
going.

IF AND WHEN Agnew‘s
lawyers file a motion to stop the
grand jury proceedings, the case
will be heard by US. Dist. Court
Judge Walter Hoffman of Nor-
folk, Va. He was appointed
supervising judge after all nine
District Court judges in
Maryland disqualified them—
selves because they were either
friends or business associates of
Agnew.

Edward S. Northrup, chief
judge of the US. District Court in
Maryland, said in an interview
that Beall and Agnew‘s lawyers
have “a gentlemen’s agreement"
that the lawyers will notify Beall
in advance of their legal filing.

“Then there will be no evidence
presented to the grand jury until
Judge Hoffman acts on the
matter," Northrup said.

NEWARK, NJ. — While the
price of just about everything
seems to be rising, few residents
of Newark's predominantly black
Central Ward admit to having
trouble coping. Most say they’re
used to it. “When you on the
bottom, you can’t fall any fur-
ther," said an elderly welfare
recipient outside a supermarket
in the ward.

THE CURRENT talk of in-
flationary spirals and cost of
living increases doesn‘t much
change the substance of the
ward's supermarket con-
versation; high prices have
always been on people’s minds.

“1 have to tell you the truth, I
don't really see that much of a
change in prices," said Pearl
Kendrick, a widow with two
children who is on welfare.

“1 never did eat much beef and
stuff , so the meat price increase
didn’t affect me," she said.

MRS. KENDRICK receives
$111 a month, $44 of it used to
purchase $64 worth of food
stamps.

“Some people don’t see how I
can make it with that money but
when you don’t have no choice
you find a way." she said.

Mrs. Kendrick lives in a run-
down apartment building with a
13—year-old daughter and a 16-
year-old son. She’s been living
there for nearly seven years and
she said she’s even grown to like
it.

HER RENT is paid by the
welfare department, so she takes
rent increase with a shrug.

“To tell the truth, I don't really
know how much the rent is in this
place," she said. “Really,
though, the rent is ridiculous for
this dump. It has gone up twice
already this year, from $145 to

Inflation problem
persists in ghetto

the ward’s better homes said he
can’t see the reason for the
“panic."

His shopping basket filled
with'vegetables,he said,‘ ‘White
people are getting upset about
something ‘we’ve had to live with
for years. Food has always been
high in ghetto food stores, and
that’s a well-known fact.”

THE CON TENTION is strongly
disputed by supermarket of-
ficials, however.

“The stories circulating that
we charge higher prices in ghetto

stores are just not true,” said a

top official of the Food-town
Supermarket Co-Op who wished
to remain anonymous.

“Our co-op has 110 stores in
New Jersey and New York, and
all of them follow the same
format when it comes to
pricing.”

GATSON SAID he and his wife
were both working and that,
although things are difficult now,
he doesn‘t notice any extreme
difference.

“I guess when you're
struggling constantly, you don’t
have the time to look up to see
how things are going,” he said

”I‘VE CHANGED jobs about
seven times in the last two years
looking for something that pays
well," he said. “I don’t want my
wife to work, but we have no
choice."

His wife, Linda, who works in
an office in nearby Elizabeth,
said she doesn’t mind working
and feels it’s necessary.

“There’s no way we could
.make it if both of us weren’t
working”, Mrs. Gatson said.

“Sometimes it sickens me the
way people parade on television
and protest high prices. There
were no parades and demon-
stration last year when people out
here got real sick because of
eating rotten meat."

Governor's labia

Where dining is an affordable pleasure.

By ROGER LOWRY

If you are stopped on campus
today by a number of bright eyed
young men and women. and
asked where they might find the
Journalism Building or Student
, Center. they are not freshmen
still fumbling around trying to
track down their classes.

These people are a few of the
estimated 1,000 high school
students attending the annual UK
clinic for high school newspaper
and yearbook staffs.

EACH HIGH SCHOOL in
Kentucky has been invited to
send a delegation of
knowledgeable students and
advisors to train in ways of im-
proving their student
publications, and to discuss
problems and possible solutions.

Programs will be offered in
areas such as feature writing,
editorials, sports, advertising
and photography.
