The Kentucky Student Public Interest Research
(iroup iKYSI’lltGI was given $165 by the Student
Senate Ill its meeting last night and a number of
appointments were made. including an Elections
Board and some postioiis in the Student Govern-
ment :Sti cabinent.

The money for KYSI’IRG would be used in a
publicity campaign to educate students about the
goals of the organization and to persuade the Board
of Trustees to make the l'niversity a collection
agency for voluntary student fees which would go to
KYSl’lltt;

However. before the trustees can be aproached,
KYSI’lItH must gain petitions signed by at least St)
percent of the student body which approve the two
dollar voluntary lee added on the current student
activities fee. If the trustees approve the fee it then
goes to the Kentucky (‘ouncil of public higher
Education for final approval.

In approving large number of appointments, the
senate set up an Elections Board that would oversee
the spring elections of the senate and SG president
and vice president The S(} constitution requires the
board be appointed by the senate at least eight
weeks in advance of the election.

The senate also approved appointment of six
directors iii the SG cabinet but two other direc-

torships remain open. Those approved include,
finance. Raymond Ilill; physical environment,
Mark llay, public relations, Diane Naser; student
services and student housing. Thomas Bickel; and
student affairs. Ed Itiley.

The two directorships still vacant are interschool
relations and minority and third world affairs. In
addition the S(; cabinet has two organizations who
select their own chairpersons. They are the (‘ouncil

In other appointments, the senate established an
ad hoc committee to look at the possibilities of
writing a new SH constitution and approved
chairix‘rsons to two of the senate's two standing
committees. Thomas Bickel was appointed to head
the Student Services (‘ommittee and Raymond ”ill

There was no one appointed to head the Student

ETV: the answer to crowded classrooms?

By MIKE ADKINS
Kernel Staff Writer

With college enrollment increasing
every year, the use of Educational
Television lETVl in the classroom may
prove to be one of the more workable
alternatives.

Unlike grade schools which use the
media extensively, ETV use at the
university level has only begun to be ex-
plored. Agriculture, English. engineering,
political science, and sociology at UK are
currently using ETV in varying degrees.

ETV does not have a glamourous
background. Most students still hold
memories of the childish programs on
literature shown during high school
English classes.

DR. I’AI'L II. OWEN. director of the
Division of Media Services, agreed
previous experience with television might
hinder the ETV program at the university
level.

and secondary school hurt the students

ETV at UK has helped abolish some of

publicity director of the overcrowded classes. The American

Government class has been divided into 12
TV sections.

“We would need five junior faculty
members to cover the same number of
students," Dr. Lyons said.

Dr. Lyons said freshmen and
sophomores are exposed to more ex-
perienced faculty through television.

“MOST 100 LEVEL courses are taught
by junior faculty members or grad
students.“ Lyons said. “The ETV allows
them lthe students) to see some of the
most knowledgeable men in the particular
field," he said.

To many students, a television
classroom is very impersonal. Dr. ()wen
does not believe this is an accurate charge.

ETV: too promising
to be neglected

Television has become a bad word
for this generation. a word associated
with mindless dialogue and grade-B.
made-for-TV movies. Thus the
University's educational television
system, still a more-or-less infant
program despite years of classroom
use. leaves many students cold from
the beginning.

It doesn't have to be that way. A
Kernel article by Mike Adkins points
out today that students who have
taken ETV classes have been proven
to have learned as much as students
taking the same classes under the
regular tutelage system in use in most
classrooms today. The students who
find the boob tube as uninteresting as
the boob in front of the blackboard

still learn their lessons.
The truth is that television has
immense possibilities. both

television. The medium has become a
system designed purely to entertain,

As Media Services director Paul

The Vietnam truce: 21 years of deié vu

Ity I).-\\'II) l.PII(lII'I"I‘\'

In 19:34, the Vietminh signed the
(ieiieva accords and ended their
battle with the French for
Vietnamese independence. The
accords stipulated a temporary
division of Vietnam, to be erased
by national elections scheduled
for a year from the signing. All
official member nations of the
Geneva convention on Vietnam
signed the agreement.

 

Omment

'I‘wo involved parties were not
official members of the con-
vention and therefore did not sign
the agreement. They were the
newly created temporary
government of South Vietnam,
and the United States, which
supported the new government.
Not having signed the

 

declared (it‘s in the transcripti
that they were not obliged to
abide by it. The elections were
never held. Instead we had the
continued Vietnam War.

The Vietminh were fighting for
independence from France.
'I‘heir ideology happened to be
communism, but that fact should
never have come to be considered
particularly salient.

One and a half million deaths
later, a new accord has been
reached. The terms are
strikingly similar to the old ac-
cords; South Vietnam is not to be
divided in half, but once again the
fighting stops and free elections
are scheduled. One might say the
same elections only 20 or so years
late. The delay took one and a
half million lives. Why did it
happen?

If the reason was to halt
communist aggression, then
there was no reason. The Viet-
minh were a nationalistic

Indeed. the world has seen
examples of communist
aggression. but it simply wasn‘t
present in this case. Some sup-
porters of our effort in Vietnam
point to the North Vietnamese-
supported insurrections in Laos
and Cambodia as evidence of
communist aggression. The
insurrections are certainly real,
but in reply one might ask why
the US. did not commit its major
effort to those nations rather than
to Vietnam. I do not condone the
North Vietnamese action in those
countries, but the fact is Hanoi is
doing much the same thing there
that Washington is.

Who‘s to say the generals
Hanoi supports have a less
legitimate claim to power than
the generals Washington sup-
ports? Neither obtained their
power through elections. Recall
the case of Captain Cong Lee, a
young Laotian officer who used
his American military training

capture Vientiane back around
1960. The captain was supposed to
be guarding the city from the
Pathet Lao. Nobody was guar-
ding the city from him.

In actuality we didn‘t start out
in Vietnam with any well con-
sidered reasons. We stumbled
our way in after the French, and
once committed to fighting had to
think of justifications for con-
tinuing. The last goal we came up
with was “Peace with honor.“

So, reviewing the history of the
war, one finds that peace and free
elections were postponed 20 years
so that the United States could
maintain its honor. Our nation
stuck its big toe in its ear and had
to find a dignified way of
removing it. The whole thing
would be funny except that our
honor cost one and a half million
lives.

WASHINGTON —— In approximately
six months one of the great social
experiments of the post-World War II
era Will begin. On July I an all-volun—
teer armed force will come into ex-
istence. The most obvious aspect of
this experiment is that no one really
knows for certain how the military
will be affected.

For 32 years, with the exception of
thirteen months in 1947-48, we all——
civilian society, military organization
and government planner—have oper-
ated on the premise that the draft is
a fact of life and an unchanging con-
stant. Now we are eliminating that tax
on our manpower. Unfortunately, we
have little from the past to guide us.
Our most recent experience with an all-
volunteer forCe was pic-World War II.

American society was different then:
we were coming out of a Depression.
Minority problems were not widely
acknowledged. The world was differ-
ent then; isolationism was a position
which reasonable men could still hold.
Our economy was different then: it
was still largely sclfcontaincd. The
international corporations existed, if
at all. in embryo. The power of weap-
ons was different then; compared with
those of today their force was minus-
cule. There was no such thing as a
nuclear strategic deterrent.

The place of the military in our
society was different then; there had
been no long, arduous and unpopular
Vietnam war. And most important,
military life was enormously different
then: today, enlisted men of the lower
ranks command a technical expertise
undemanded of senior officers of that
earlier day.

In fact, all that remains the same in
military service today are the things
which have always been the same. To
be effective, any military force must
operate with good order and dis-
cipline; it must draw from its people,
a loyalty greater than the loyalty to
self. This will be true as long as men
and women don any uniform, for any
military service, in any country.

How do we maintain the traditional
if we were not faced with the social
factor, but only that of economics,
we would clearly have to find ways
to retain careerists. Personnel costs
already make up a greater part of
the services' total budgets than hard-
ware; and a major portion of those
personnel costs is caused by the con-
stant loss of men, and the need to
start from scratch with a new en-
listee.

We in the Navy have a special prob-
lem. Along with the other services
we will be competing with private in-
dustry for a limited manpower pool.
But, in addition to that competition,
we are the only service which asks a
major portion of our people to go on
unaccompanied tours. There is no way
to take a sailor’s family to sea.

The use and purpose of ships have
also changed radically. Even the most

attract men and women from our
current society to a military career'.‘
It is the resolution of these apparent
opposites which poses the greatest
challenge to the experiment of an all-
volunteer force.

I‘or hundreds of years the basic
skills of military service changed little.
It was not difficult to teach recruits
to swab a deck or pitch a tent. If

and journalism.

the recruit left after one enlistment
it was easy enough to train another
to take his place; often training could
be done on the job. Today, however,
we must teach that earlier recruit’s
son or grandson to service a helicopter,
to tear down and rebuild a radar. or
to maintain a nuclear reactor.

To teach him those skills currently
can I‘m to hundreds of thousands of
dollars, and the cost is going up. Even
sophisticated ship of that previous all-
volunteer era—the battleship—would
share little more than its propulsion
system with the average ship of today
—and that too, is changing. There
were no radar. sonar. missiles, heli-
copters or all the other things com-
monly found on almost any LES. Navy
ship today. There is even a school of
thought today which speaks of ships
as “platforms." transportation vehicles
to move highly sophisticated electronic
and weapons systems.

As a corollary. more Navy men
aboard a ship today are technicians
than not. The very man capable of
becoming a shipboard electronics or
radar technician is also the man in-
dustry seeks, and the very man who
tends to have a high degree of social
awareness.

One other problem must also be
faced. We must be prepared to train
those men and women who come to
military life with strong prejudices,
and also those who have ability but
have suffered in civilian life from
deprived circumstances and opportu-
nities.

These are the young people we must
realistically prepare for under the all-
voiunteer environment. While it should
be obvious that a military service is
not a social agency. it should also be
obvious that programs have to be
devised to meet these pressures under
which We will have to operate.

We in the Navy have been anticipat<
ing this and it is those very pressures
which have prompted the many pro-
grams begun during recent years in
the Navy. We are determined to utili/c
fully these programs and to create
others if necessary to meet the do
mands of the all-volunteer force We
have no alternative; to maintain an
unchanging stance may be emotionally
satisfying but it is operationally de~
bilitating.

"l\tc(;overn and Nixon are both

sought to piece together an
earlier conversation with Spock.

'l‘here are 100 different kinds of
socialism. Spock had said. . .don‘t
say your a socialist party
because 98 percent of Americans
will put their fingers in their ears.
. everybody on the left fights and
exaggerates the other's positions.

the Peoples Party isn't doctrine

enough we are a socialist party

Spock had ended his speech and
was well into the discussion
