Tenure ‘cause

That sixty-two per cent of the faculty at
UK is tenured should be a cause for con-
cern, said Lewis W. Cochran. vice-
president for academic affairs.

“It's good for students and faculty to
bring more people into the University,“
said Cochran.

“RIGHT NOW no one sees any growth in
the student population,” he stated, ex-
plaining that in the past, faculty rolls could
be increased to meet expanding student
enrollment.

In the past four years. said Cochran, the
only significant increase in student
enrollment was recorded in Fall. 1972.
Only the colleges of Agriculture, Home
Economics and Social Professions have
had significant increases in attendance.

Cochran said the problem of increased
proportion of tenured faculty was found
nationwide. ()f five Kentucky universities
contacted, this university had the second
highest percentage of tenured faculty.

TRANSYLVANIA University had a
percentage of 64, Western and Murray
figures were 43 per cent and 45 per cent.
respectively. Eastern had no figures
available.

developments are “encouraging." said a
spokesman. at George Washington
University hospital.

According to Cochran, most universities
feel concern about their percentage of
tenured faculty when it reaches the 50 to 65
per cent range. He said that at UK there
has been “no general university concern."

Some institutions are using long-term
appointments as a reaction to the tenure
imbalance. Appointments then come up
for renewal every five years or so.

“AT L'K. WE have a surprising number
of appointments each year. many of these
short-term.“ said Cochran. A short—term
appointment lasts for a year or two and is
not renewed.

Cochran cited a figure of seven or eight
per cent of the faculty as newly employed.

“No quota system (to resolve the tenure
imbalance) has ever been proposed for
here." said Cochran. He said a better way
of dealing with the tenure situation would
be “changing the level of expectation for
promotion."

Norma, ‘a good friend'

Norma, one of several UK students acting as foster
parents for teenagers (Kernel, Sept. 26), exemplified some
of the finer personal attributes of college'students.

Oldsters tend to lump college kids into a group identified
as “hippies, radicals, rioters, pot heads, etc.” But many are
just normal, average people with something special to
offer.

Apathy doesn’t afflict the Norma’s here at UK. National
politics and scandals may bore them, but the importance of
bettering even one person’s life is a responsibility they
gladly accept.

The Hard—to-Place Project has shown rare insight in
departing from the accepted practice of matching “new”
parents to a teenager. In most cases, these teens have come
under the guise of the Project for that very reason: parents
couldn’t deal with these kids, couldn’t treat them as people,
or just didn’t care.

So, Project workers surmised, why put a kid right back
into that type of environment? Instead, choose a “Norma”
to act as a friend, while at the same time affording the teen
a degree of supervision.

Most of these kids don’t need parents; they need, instead,
someone near their own age, capable of listening to their
problems and offering solutions. In addition, the “Nor-
ma’s” can share the experiences of youth with kids who
have had precious few interludes of carefree existence.

Parents are, of course, necessary, but so, too, are friends.
It’s a relief to see that the Hard-to-Place Project can make
a distinction between the two.

‘Na-thraw away' bill

With the General Assembly session coming up in
January, some bill proposals are beginning to leak to the
public.

One of these, perhaps one of the more significant bills
scheduled to be acted upon, will prohibit throw-away cans
and bottles in Kentucky. This bill has already cleared
committee for prefiling.

State Rep. Victor Hellard (D-Versailles) introduced the
bill to the Committee on Agriculture and National
Resources last month; it passed by a 7-3 vote Tuesday.

Styled after a similar bill passed by the Oregon assembly
last fall: the Kentucky version is desparately needed. It
would require a minimum two-cent refund on bottles that
can be used by various distributors and a five-cent
minimum on those restricted to one product. It would also
prohibit the production of flip-top or pull-tab containers.

Bottling distributors are sure to prepare a big floor battle
opposing the bill, but it’s good to hear this early that such a
bill will be proposed to give legislators time to prepare its
defense.

Room for one more?

Dear Mr. Straub.

After reading your article, “The end of
color" (Sept. 26, page 11) I had'to laugh. It
was obviously your only mode of defense
after you put your foot in your mouth about
the King-Riggs match (and,you obviously
agreed) thata “good male can beat a good
female any day."

What are we looking for in sports? A
display of sick humor or a battle of athletic
talents? lf Bobby Riggs had known his
sport better than he knew his so-called
“colorful“ lines, he might have beaten
Billie Jean King. But I doubt it.

You can be assured that when Henry
Aaron ties and surpasses Babe Ruth‘s
record of homeruns, it won't be because of
“colorful" acts. And the fans will find it
just as exciting.

Yes, Mr. Straub, you‘ve done it again.
Only this time you've put both of your feet
in your mouth. Evidently there’s room for
more.

Why is the Kernel behind the times?

Jim Croce was killed in a plane crash,
and four days later the Kernel reports it,
after most people already knew about it,
either reading it in the major papers, or
hearing about it.

The soccer team plays Saturday, and we
hear about it Wednesday.

But of course, an entire page is wasted
every Monday on a football game which
we read about once and heard about on TV
twice already.

Appalling news

I hope that Americans are as appalled as
lam at the news that the US. Government
has recognized the Chilean junta. It isn't
easy to disregard the stories of repression
that are leaking through the military-
imposed censorship: the people being
executed in the National Stadium in front
of 7,000 prisoners, the prison island near
Punta Arenas, and the burning of leftist
literature.

When Allende came to power, the US.
Government withdrew the U.S.A.I.D.
mission, and discontinued formal
relations. They did this to a government
that was democratically elected; a
government that was humane and
progressive. And now, when Chilean
generals overthrow this government and
impose a rule which even a conservative
mind has to consider tyrannical, the
American government in less than one
month recognizes it.

By the same logic, the US Government
refuses to send an ambassador to Sweden
whose only sin is that Premier Olaf Palme
has long been critical of US. involvement
in Southeast Asia. How is it that the US.
can withdraw ambassadors from Palme's
Sweden and Allende‘s Chile and then
recognize a military junta?

Vietnam: life returns to normal

By M.E. BRANAMAN

The Provisional Revolutionary
Government, the political structure of the
National Liberation Front, controls at
least one quarter of the territory in the
South. The Paris Agreement permits the
North Vietnamese people, supporters of
the PRC. liberation forces, to remain in
these areas. The focus of the work of the
supporting forces has changed from one of
military strategy to one of political
development. According to reports from
the Vietnamese Workers‘ Party through
Hanoi. the North Vietnamese cadres in the
PRC territory are directed to assist the
peasants in the rebuilding of the Village
life. The ceasefire has permitted life to
resume normal character in the Mekong
Delta and the mountainous farming
regions, for there is no longer the threat of
overhead destruction.

Vietnamese senator estimated the
taxation is 20 per cent lower in the PRC

equipment and support for the people are
American jeeps and military trucks. The
economy of the PRC village is run on
piasters, the South Vietnamese currency
and goods are obtained in the local
markets.

Fighting between government forces
and liberation forces occurs outside the
village perimeters only meters away, but
the rebuilding of the village continues,

Reporter

surprises
TV viewers

By I’Al‘l. J. lll'GHES III

The Saturday night news caught the eyes
of many WHAS-TV viewers in a different
way last week. Mike James. WHAS-TV
sports reporter. presented the usual scores
from around the country and the state
including a brief summary of what hap-
pened at the UK game. James concluded
his sportscast with a story about himself.

James and his wife came to Lexington
Saturday as representatives of WHAS-TV
to film specific highlights of the game. It
was important for both to be inside the new
(‘ommonwealth Stadium several hours
before the game to erect film equipment
for that evening‘s story.

LITERATL'RE had been sent from the
UK Sports Information Department to all
area media so traffic could be properly
expedited and members of the press would
have no problem gaining access to the
stadium. James drove from Nicholasville
Road onto UK property and began making
his way toward the stadium.

Campus patrolmen had been posted in
strategic places to give directions and
provide parking for the incoming fans
James‘ car was seen stopped momentarily.
at the post of one officer Who seemed to
jUSl wave the car on toward the stadium
Several minutes later, James returned to
the location of that officer and stopped his
car. This time it was clear he needed
directions to a specific place. apparentl '
a parking area for the news media. 3

The officer showing puzzlement over the
request. was aided by a younger officer
standing approximately IOO feet away. He
ran up to James and brutually pushed him.
An instant yelling match started between
all three. The first UK officer James had
talked to walked away from the scene to
begin directing traffic again.

AS JAMES continued to give an ex-
planation of his need to get to the stadium
the other officer told him to “shut up.“
James yelled to his bystanding wife to shot
film of the incident; she was told by the
officer she would be arrested for doing so.
L'sing a relatively expensive 16 mm
camera owned by WHAS-TV. James’ wife
continued shooting film despite an oc-
casional problem of the officer applying
his bill club to the lens to block off the
scene.

James was soon handcuffed and pushed
up against the police car which would take
him to the [K Police Department to be
booked according to [K Police Chief
(‘apt Paul Harrison. James was arrested
and bond was set for disorderly conduct at
Slutttm and resisting arrest at $500.00.

('ITY POLICE Department officials
took James by paddy wagon to the city jail
where he stayed until game time, ap-
proximately 45 minutes. UK Police
Department officials recommended his
release at that time. No transportation
was provided for James and consequently
he walked from downtown to the stadium.
The hearing for the case was set for
Monday. Sept. 23. although it has been
continued for next Monday.

some 1000 persons in Memorial

related that Chinese-Russian

Free U pornography

By GAIL FITCH
Kernel Staff Writer

There was an overflowing
crowd at Free U‘s Hard Core
Pornography class Tuesday night
when Dr. Cornelia Wilbor gave
her views of pornography and
attitudes toward sex in America.

Dr. Wilbor. professor of
psychiatry at U K '5 Medical
Center. said that pornography
can be of socially redeeming
value in our society.

“WE DON’T DO any good by
legislating what people see in the
way of porno or by limiting sex
education. All of the sexual
problems that I have been ex-
posed to in over thirty years of
experience from simply frigidity
on someone's wife to violent sex
criminal has been associated
with ignorance.“ she said.

In addition to her experience in
the field. Wilbor cited the effect
of “free pornography" in Den-
mark and the the findings of the
President's Commission on
Pornography and Obscenity.

“In essence, the President‘s
Commission on Pornography and
Obscenity said porno doesn't hurt
anyone and it helps some. Of
course. President Nixon publicly
disagreed with these findings,”
said Wilbor.

“IN DENMARK the number of
cases of forcible rape. rape of
children and rape with assault
dropped significantly after the
government made pornographic
material free to whomever could
afford to buy it." she said.

Over 40 men and women
jammed into the small room to
learn and expound their views on
porno. Many had to stand in the
doorway or the hall to hear what
they could.

“What some people don‘t
realize is that porn, when used for
the purpose of sexual
stimulation. has very definite
limitations," she said. “For
example. it is something you just
can‘t see alone, unless you
happen to be a chronic
masturbator.“

PORNO ALSO SEEMS to be
limited by time. “I was recently
at a gathering of psychiatrists
who were studying pornography.

Some 25 questions were sub—
mitted by the crowd, but Kalb
stopped after the sixth one
contending it was “getting late".
