Bernie Silent, But Summer Was Fun Anyway

By MARVA GAY

Sticks and stones and many old bones again see
daylight because of two UK students. Tef Holschlag
and Shela McFarlin spent the summer digging up dead
Indians.

Each morning they swung a shovel over a shoulder
and walked off in search of buried Indians, pots and
pans. Though both were on an antique hunt, they
never met. Tef was searching for Cherokees in South
Carolina. Shela was surrounded by Apaches in Grass
Hopper, Ariz.

The South Carolina expedition was a temporary
emergency dig. The land in its area was being cleared
before being covered by a proposed new lake. The
project was directed by the Institute of Anthropology
and Archeology affiliated with the University of South
Carolina.

The Arizona digging is a permanent professional
archeology project and school. In a span of 20 years,
a 13th century pro-Apache pueblo will be unearthed

by selected students. The University of Arizona sup-
ported by the National Science Foundation conducts
the classes.

Gained 8 Hours

Shela has eight credits more in her anthropology
major because of the dig. Only students with a B
average who intend to pursue a masters degree . or
PhD. in a related field may join the expedition. Shela
was one of 20 chosen from 150 applicants.

Though Tef was working for pay. $6 a week, and
Shela was just gaining experience, they had common
gripes: “My back is breaking” and “I haven't been
clean since I've been here."

Neither camp had running water. Tef's water came
by car from a house a half-mile from camp, and ice
cold baths were available in the Keowee River. Apaches
brought Shela’s water.

Shela said the Apaches in the area were quiet and
curious about her and her fellow workers.

Tef said the two Cherokees she saw weren't saying
much either. Bernie couldn’t say much because his
head was missing when Tef uncovered him with an
ice pick. (The ground was so hard she could use. no
other tool.)

Bernie, dead for some, was’named for the director
at the site. And her discovery was his alleged girl
friend Virginia, equally silent.

On records the Indians were listed by number. Shela
never named hers because she discovered an average
of two skeletons a day.

While Tef was thrilled to find an old bone, Shela
was not. “I had to wash, count and sort each find,”
she said. The day she found 7,000 potshells she had
considerable lab work.

After five years, one large kiva (ceremonial religious
center), a small kiva and 20 of 700 “rooms” have been
uncovered at the Arizona site.

University of Kentucky, Lexington

The South’s Outstanding College Daily

UK, Montpellier
To Get Close Ties

By DICK

KIMMINS

Six University faculty and administrators will leave Oct, 20 for
the University of Montpellier, Montpellier, France, to discuss final
plans for an extensive coordination between the two institutions.

The schools have tentatively
scheduled exchange of students
and faculty for one year at a
time, with college credit given
for work done abroad.

The six men to make the trip
are Dr. Lewis Cochran, dean of
the Graduate School and vice
president for research; Dean
Paul Nagel of the College of
Arts and Sciences; Dr. David
Dowd, professor of history; Dr.
W. H. Griffin, director of the
Office for International Educa-
tion Programs; Dr. Borys Sura-
wicz, chief of the Medical Cen-
ter's cardiovascular section, and
Dr. Walter G. Langlois, pro-
fessor of French.

When the University insti-
tuted the Office for International
Education Programs in March,
1967, it was charged with ex-
pediting the project. The com-
mittee will remain in France
for 10 days.

Hope To Start By Summer

"It is hoped that the various
programs will be in operation
by next summer so students can
be exchanged," Dr. Griffin said.

Even though arrangements
are not yet final, Dr. Griffin said
the two universities are "com—
mitted in working out the
terms.”

Dr. Griffin stressed that the
University cannot become in-
volved in all parts of the world,
but “we can have more than
surface knowledge" about other
cultures.

“Montpellier represents those
European universities that are
more experimental, interested in

new programs and having pro-
grams sirnilar to those at UK,"
he added.

Montpellier has about 25,000
students and the second-oldest
medical school in the world,

founded about 1000 ,tD. .--.M.

Not Limited To Medicine

Cooperation between the two
schools will not be exclusively
centered around medicine, how-
ever. Language studies, Ameri-
can and Western European his-
tory, mathematics and related
fields all have been mentioned
as part of the new program.

The project has been in the
planning stages for two years
mainly among Dr. Jean Charron,
professor of French, University
President John Oswald and
Executive Vice President A. D.
Albright. Each has visited Mont—
pellier and discussed plans with
officials there.

In Southern France near the
Mediterranean Sea, the univer-
sity has two campuses outside
the city, one for science and
the other for letters. The uni-
versity is opearted by the
French government.

Dr. Griffin said the associa-
tion would help the University
face the future, expanding the
global knowledge of the Uni-
versity's faculty and graduates.

Problems inherent in plan-
ning such a program center
around schedules, academic rat-
ing (grades) and financing. The
purpose of the visit by UK
representatives will be to find
workable solutions.

Case Indicts Johnson
For Betraying Trust

WASHINGTON (UPI)—President Johnson was accused on the
Senate floor Tuesday of violating the trust of Congress and creating
“a crisis of confidence" by his handling of the Vietnam war since

1964.

The attack by Sen. Clifford
P. Case (R—N. J.) touched off a
bitter new round of Vietnam
debate during which Case was
accused by his own party leader
of “bellyaching” and by a
Democrat of giving comfort to
the enemy.

Sen. Case said Johnson had
used the Tonkin Gulf Resolu-
tion to escalate the war in a
way that Congress never in-
tended. The resolution, ap-
proved in August, 1964, au-
thorizes the President “to take
all necessary measures to repel
any armed attack against the
forces of the United States and
to prevent further aggression.

Credibility Gap Cited

“The people’s anxiety, and
that of Congress too, springs
perhaps in greatest part from
a growing conviction that the
administration is not telling
them the truth," Sen. Case said.

Waving a copy of Case’s
speech, Senate COP Leader
Everett M. Dirksen said:

“There are enough lawyers
here to know (the resolution’s)
language and they oughtn’t to
bellyache afterwards if it rises
up and hits them in the face.
I’m defending Congress, be-
cause I believe it knew what
it was doing. If it didn’t, it's a
pretty tragic confession.”

Sen. John C. Stennis (D-
Miss.) said that by rehashing
the resolution, “unintentionally
we give comfort and encourage-
ment and hope to the enemy.
I didn’t say ‘aid,’ but in a way
it amounts to that, because I
believe they are hanging on to
the belief that if they punish us
enough and bleed us long
enough, we’ll 've in."

Sen. Case, , who was re-
elected last N ember for his .
third six-year term, was stung
by his colleagues' reaction.

"If. this country can’t stand
discussion on critical issues
without fear of giving aid to
the enemy, we have come to
a pretty pass,” he declared.

Dr. Dickey Asks ‘Sensible Balance’

Dr. Frank C. Dickey called
for a “balance between genera-
tions” Wednesday morning in
an address prepared for a con-
vocation celebrating the 103rd
academic year of the Lexington
Theological Seminary. f7“
Dr. Dickey, former preside t.
of the University and notv
executive director of the Aca-
demic Accrediting Council, said
that generations are seeking
“something real and tangible”

President W. A. Welsh of

the seminary presided over the
convocation which was at-
tended by the members of the
University Board of Trustees,
members of the University
Faculty and students of the
seminary.

Dr. Dickey developed his
topic, “A Balancing Pole and 3
Tight Rope,” with frequent
references to the “hippie gen-
eration" and its rejection of
“anyone over 30."

“I am not so sure that the

present generation of college-
age youth are so completely dif-
ferent from previous genera-
tions,” he said. “Part of our
problem today is that we have
better means of displaying the
signs of unrest."

While praising the hippies'
philosophy of love for everyone,
Dr. Dickey said this love is
generally of a selfish nature and
of the “live-it-up—while—you—may”
variety.

"It's one thing to be a rebel,"

emphasized Dr. Dickey, “but
quite another thing to be mature
enough to carry on the oft-times
thankless task of fighting for
the right and for sometimes un-
popular causes.

‘We must utilize all of the
possibilities at our disposal ‘to
strike a sensible balance be-
tween the wisdom and ex-
perience of the mature citizens
and the zeal and enthusiasm
and idealism of the younger
generation,’ said Dr. Dickey.

No Profit Motive , ,

James King, director of Aux—
iliary Service, keeps a watchful
eye on the efficiency of Univer-
sity housing and diningfacilities,
the Student Center and the book—
store.

“I don't profess to be a spec-
ialist in food and hotel manage-
ment at all," says Mr. King. I'm
just responsible for making cer-
tain that UK has qualified peo-
ple in this area.

”We have no profit motives,"
says Mr. King, But we must
project prices nearly two years in
advance. When the room and
board prices are set, we have to
guess what labor and food cost
will be a year from now."

ladies In The Elevator First’

LABERTUM VS. THE ELEVATOR

By JOE HINDS
Kernel Arts Editor

Clyde Labertum strolled to-
ward the Complex Tower. His
round eyes were tilted reflecting
the cotton—candy clouds in the
sky.

A gust of wind picked up a
strand ofhis brown hair; it floated
back down but wouldn't lie flat
until a weathered hand pushed
it into place. He was thinking
about what happened the day
before . . .

Yesterday he was standing in
the Complex lobby.

”How long have you guys
been waiting?"

The group turned on him,
glared and stiffly moved their

heads back to the front all in_

one motion.

One of Clyde's friends walked

over and whispered, ”About 15

minutes."

He noted the crowded corridor

and asked, ”Have all of them
been waiting that long?"

”All but those two in the mid-
dle."

“What are they doing?"

”They’ve been trying to get
out of the corridor for the past
two minutes."

Clyde watched the two work
feverishly to untangle their arms
and nonchalantly asked, “Where's
the elevator?"

His friend pointed to thelight
board numbered to 22. ”Oh,"
Clyde surmised. ”The elevator
can count." But it wasn't count-
mg.

Then a small man with a
goatee shouted, “Crokkers, grok
with me."

The days are empty without end;

Nights are black and fullofstrife.

If you've no message which to
send,

Worthless is the human life.

Let's die. I know it would be
better

Than not knowing what were
after.

Fear in the unknown hinders you
From looking at life as I do.
But what makes me stay awhile
And bear the shadow of a smile?
Why, my message is yet to come.

And sure enough, the elevator
was slowly coming down.

Clyde watched the two un—
happy youths in the middle be-
ing sandwiched into a corner
wall.

A sudden rush of people from
behind caught Clyde and his
friend and swept them into the
sea of people. He felt as if he
were in a vice when the elevator
doors closed. He wondered why
the corridor was still crowded
until the elevator started going
up.

The elevator got stuck on the
second floor. Clyde couldn't move
so he looked up and said, ”Why
inthe . .

”Hey buddy! Watch where
you re going.

Clyde stopped short of aditch
and his eyes lowered. He was
standing off to the side of his
dormitory. He walked over to the
entrance and opened the heavy
glass door.

He could have seen the crowd
from outside. but he had to come
in to make one last gesture to
the elevator.

Dorm Life Provides Adventure

By LINDA CHANDLER

A young woman armed with
one half of her parent's life in-
come—clothing, a stereo, books,
lamps, jewelry, and her trusty,
faithful "teddy bear"—heads for
a dorm. Multiply the items and
the young lady by 200 andthings
begin to get interesting.

Webster defines the dormitory
two ways; (1) A sleeping room
or rooms connected with college
or boarding schools. (2) a burial
place. A girl’s dormitory is nei-
ther—it's an adventure!

A phone rings and you hear
the clatter of size ”8" saddle-
shoes tromping down the hall.
This is how the days start and

the days end. Boys call all hours

of the day, asking you to get
them a date—if you only knew
the boy!

A dorm is infested with hair
rollers. Each girl owns approxi-
mately forty rollers and the big—
ger the better. One half hour
each night is devoted to winding
small portions of body-waved,
straightened, or just plain hair
around cylinders. Everyone cuts

everyone else's hair, but each
girl cries over her own.

At the beginning of the school
year the rooms are neat and
feminine, but somehow things
get confused. With one guitar,
one extra cot, one sweater box,
one suitcase and Several pairs
of shoes under each bed, things
do get cluttered. Not to mention
all the little trinkets girls love
to save and keep on display in
their room, such as scraps of
crepe paper and wilted flowers.

Dorm life prepares a girl for
all sorts of situations and she
learns to adjust to practically
anything!

One’s ears become acquainted
with various sounds—a girl
screaming one of her good ole'
high school yells, the six girls
upstairs practicing the latest drill
march; the sound of fivedifferent
rock and roll records playing at
once, and the moans of a girl
getting her ears pierced or one
who lost her fellow.

A girl gets to see new sights
also. The sight of another girl
covered with shaving cream and
catsup thrown in a shower (she

got pinned). The sight of girls
hanging out windows looking at
other girls kiss their fellows good-
night, a housemother dressed as
a flapper or Santa Claus, and

the awakening sight of a girl'

in pajamas with teased hair and
a cigarette at seven o’clock in
the morning.

As the year goes by, girls
learn to live with broken eleva-
tors, sharing the bathroom with
three other females, to share all
of their clothes. One becomes
accustomed to maintenance men
hollering ”Man on the floor!"
After a while even cafeteria food
tastes better than your own cook-
ing (vegetable soup in a popcorn
power).

The biggest complaint adorm
girl has is the discipline system.
There are yellow slips of paper
for being late, pink ones for per-
mission to go home, and white
ones for rowdiness. It’s not so
much the discipline they mind
as trying to figure out which
color means the most trouble.

Dorm life is ridiculous or hu-
morous—It's all in how you look
at it. Meanwhile, enjoy it.

HomecomingPlans Set

“Establish some tradition,”
the key idea behind the 1967
Homecoming Steering Commit-
tee, will make this the best one
yet. According to Sandy Bugie,
chairman, at a meeting on Mon-
day night, plans are being made
which she hopes will be carried
on next year.

To kick off the Homecoming
week-end, a parade to a bonfire-
pep rally will be held behind
Haggin Hall on Nov. 2. Stewart
Minton, adviser, suggested that
the freshman begin a tradition
of gathering wood for the bon-

fire.

On Friday night, Nov. 1, Al
Hirt will be in concert at Me-
morial Coliseum.

The Homecoming festivities
on Saturday will begin at 11:00
am. with a luncheon served on
the field beside Stoll Field. The
probable menu will be two hot
dogs, potato chips, brownies,
and drink for $1 per person.

At 2 p.m., Kentucky will play
West Virginia. During the half-
time, the West Virginia UK
bands will perform. The queen
will be crowned and awards for
the displays will be given.

Soccer'Support Is'Due

This year, the University’s soc-
cer club may be able to make it
to their regional conference, pro-
vided the current train of events
continues.

Last year after compiling a 9—3
record, some of the club’s most
valuable members found them-
selves unable to make the regional

tournament because they could not
afford the trip and accommodation

expenSes. Except for a few pieces

of make-do equipment provided by
the physical education department,
club members were entirely self-
supporting.

Then in the spring came a Stu-
dent Covemment grant to cover
cost of buying uniforms. As the
spring semester drew to a close and
during the early days of this term,
some of the soccer players began
negotiation with Athletic Director
Bernie Shively to see about getting
support for this year’s schedule.
Many of the players were pessi-
mistic; yet some support has cqme—
the Athletic Department has pur-
chased a set of goal nets—and Shi-
vely promises that more is on the
way.

Right now Abdelmonem Rizk,
an instructor in the physical ed-
ucation department who works with

the soccer players, is drawing up a
prospective budget for this year’s
game schedule expenses. And al-
though Shively can’t guarantee any
minimum amount of support, he has
said the club would be given some
aid.

What is really important is that
the soccer players are going to be
helped out. The Athletic Depart:
ment seems to be paying some at-
tention to the minor sports which
don’t draw thousands of spectat-
ors and generate thousands of dol-
lars. Soccer is but one of many
minor non-varsity sports—among
them judo, volleyball, bowling,
girls’ hockey and girls’ basketball-
which give a great many students
a chance for athletic participation
even if they are not varsity super-
stars.

Under an extra-mural program
initiated last year but apparently
much expanded this semester, these
less prestigious sports are getting
long deserved support. The endur-
ance and perseverance of the soc-
cer players is but one example of
the effort it takes to get such ath-
letic recognition. And to Bernie
Shiveley’s promise that aid is def-
initely coming, one can only say,
commendable.

College Editors Score Supposedly ‘Objeetive’ Journalism

The following is an account of some of
the events and atmophere of the 1967 Con-
gress of the U.S. Student Press Association
as seen by stafler Frank Browning, a mem-
ber of USSPA's National Executive Board.
The report attempts only to present the
view of one person closely involved in
the Congress. —The Editor.

Ifthis summer's meeting of college edi-
tors at the Congress of the U.S. Student
Press Association is any measure,then the
future of so-called ”objective" reporting
may have some rough going.

Clearly they‘were not enamored of
supposedly objective reporting as defined
by the established American Press. In-
stead, the delegates at that August meeting
in Minneapolis were tired of hackneyed,
interest-vested, professional reporting.
They were often begging for someone to
tell the news "like it is."

”Like it is," as most delegates were
honest enough to say, is seldom ”objec-
tive." Because, they'd say, lifejust isn’t
objective; it doesn't just happen without

' concern, or meaning or commitment. And
the reporter who claimes otherwise just
isn't telling it the way it is. A reporter
who claims sacrosanct objectivity—be it in
selection of facts or choice of verbs—is
either not telling his readers the truth
about himself, or else he's probably so
far on the outside of his topic he never
finds out what the truth is.

What the editors wanted in place of
hackneyed “objectivity" was fairness and
honesty. An establishment press was not
wanted by USSPA editors. A press which
sends its reporters to Saigon bars having
them pick up government releases about
“light" casualties on the front, is not

the kind of press these editors want.

This USSPA Congress, both its dele-
gates and its leaders, were not interested
in such objectivity, for they still had that
wild and fresh innocence that comes of
wanting the truth told.

That spirit was carried over into the
aflairs of the congress and down into a
painful internal struggle over who would
hold USSPA leadership through the com-
ing year.

That week spent in Minneapolis was
intense. And it was so because the con-
gress stood a perilously good chance of
wrenching USSPA apart; and to most
editors there, USSPA was important as
the only meaningful organization of and
for high quality student newspapers.

David Peterson, named USSPA Ex—
ecutive Director at the end of the con-
gress termed the week much like coming
down from a very bad acid trip.

‘ Bloom Fired

To be blunt, USSPA fired its leader,
Marshall Bloom, who had been named
general secretary at a technically illegal
April meeting of USSPA's National Ex-
ecutive Board. The decision to fire him
came from a late morning meeting of the
NEB on Aug. 21. The following after-
noon the Congress reversed the board and

rehired Bloom.
By Fridaythe congress members had re-

considered, and directed a newly elected
NEB to hire former University of Denver
Clarion Editor David Peterson to the post.
Peterson had been slated to head a US-
SPA higher education program under
‘a grant from the Carnegie Corporation.

Congress plenary sessions were long,
two~to-four hours, and were usually
marked by a precise devotion to”Robert's

Rules of Order." For the most part, mem-
ber delegates had a hopelessly confused
notion of what was happening, of who
was “in" and when they became “outf'

Comedian Dick Gregory, injected into
the first plenary by Bloom, described it
all well when he said: "There'stwogroups
of people here. There's the squares and
there's the hippie—dippies. And all you
people who don't thinkthis meetin's polit-
ical—you is SQUARES!"

To the interested outsider, it all seemed

1to come from information Bloom had got-
ten for The Collegiate Press Service and
passed on to the Washington Free Press.
The information, diary notes‘of former
NSA-er Larry Rubin that were critical of
NSA presidential candidate Ed Schwartz,
were distributed at the August NSA Con-
gress at College Park, Md. just before
.presidential nominations opened.

When the NEB first heard of it, mem—
bers Were critical and attacked Bloom for
meddling in the internal affairs of
NSA. That is, trying to politically affect
the outcome of an NSA election. Then
came a long, personal and bmtal inter-
change between Bloom, the NEB and
the outgoing national staff of USSPA—
all of it centering on how Bloom had
managed USSPA and the USSPA staff
since he took over in june.

If the attacks could be crystallized,
they would describe Bloom as a charis-
matic leader, adept at genius—level rhe-
toric and innuendo, a ”true believer" who
might listen to an opponent for several
hours, and end by saying, “Yes, I see,
we agree."

But that description never really met
the USSPA delegates' ears. All they could

see or hear was an outgoing national staff '
