SG president to request
non-sexist regulations

By BOB ERNEST
Kernel Staff Writer

Student Government President David
Mucci is planning to ask the Board of
Trustees to adopt nonsexist wording
changes in the University Governing and
Administrative Regulations.

A proposal for removal of sexist nouns
and pronouns was originally submitted to
the Board last March by former 80
President Jim Flegle. When the proposal
came up fora vote on May 7, Flegle did not
think it would pass and moved to table it.
thus postponing the vote.

)ll‘t‘t‘l SAID opposition to the wording
changes was not intense but that some
Board members do not think they are
important.

Mucci and Susan Jones. a member of the
Council on Women‘s Concerns, spent
approximately eight hours going over the
Regulationsand listing words they thought
needed to be changed.

Words such as chairman and spokesman
would substitute person for man. leaving

spokesperson or chairperson Other
changes are with masculine pronouns such
as he or his. Mucci and Jones suggested
instead of he or she, he-she or his-hers
should appear. In all there are 449
recommended changes.

Mucci feels that the substitutions don‘t
change the regulations, only the thought.
“I'm a strong believer that language
structures thought." he said. “The
changes are a sign that the l'niversity is
committed to women's concerns," he
commented.

.\ll'(‘(‘l ADDED that the l'niversity is
giving women more rights but “more can
be done." “I feel the l'niversity should
take the lead in eliminating sexist
language. We have a commitment as an
enlightened segment of society." he ad-
(led.

Mucci plans to work this summer to
convince Board Members the changes are
important and to take Flegle's proposal off
the table for a vote at the first full board
meeting September 7.

Lexington stables hosting Peruvian quadruped

By KAY (‘OYTE
Editor-in-(Ehief
Scenery patterns repeat themselves
while driving into Lexington on Richmond
Road. Barns, white fences. horses and
a....uh....
Well, it sort of looks like a horse, or a
cross between a horse and a camel.

THIS STRANGE creature is a llama.
Native of the Peruvian Andes mountains,
he has adapted well to Lexington‘s
bluegrassand a pasture full of horses used
for the Wagon Wheel Stables trail rides.

No one at Wagon Wheel considers
“Tornado" to be all that special — or even
different.

“He‘s just a big ol‘ pet," said Mrs.
Rhoda Thomason, a co-owner of the
stables. She added most of the horses have
become used to the llama, except for the
ones that had “any spunk at all in them."

"YOU SEE that pony over there?" she
asked and pointed to a sleepy brown and
white pinto tied to the fence. “Now, she‘s

the dead-headest thing you ever saw. but if
you bring that llama over here she'll tear
that whole fence down in a split second.“

Horses who have shared their pasture
with Tornado still shy away from him and
allow plenty of leeway when he strolls by,
By nature, llamas possess mean and
bullish dispositions and hate for horses or
people to bother them, and Tornado is no
excepuon.

Llamas defend themselves by spitting a
mixture of saliva and food at their
enemies. And it doesn't take much
provoke these violent reactions.

TWO Wagon Wheel regulars, Carl David
Thomason, 10, and Mike Collie, 9, try to
humor Tornado with peace offerings of
sweet feed. His ears pinned back. he only
retorts with a sneeze-like spit and sends
the boys dodging chewed-up grass saliva.

“Did he get me? Did he get me'?“ Carl
David shrieked as he raced out of the
llama's reach. The boys inspected one

Abortion on demand: Insist upon it

Search hard enough and you can
find something nice to say about
anybody. Giving credit where
credit is due. the Right to Life
Committee has one noteworthy
merit w organization.

Following the Jan. 22. 1973
Supreme Court decision affirming
the Constitutional right of women
to terminate a pregnancy within
the first two trimesters. the Right-
to-Lifers have bombarded the
public and their Congressmen
with anti—abortion demands. They
seek a reversal of the Court‘s
ruling and a return to archaic
laws forcing unwanted
pregnancies.

Full-page anti—abortion ads
stare at us from the morning
newspaper. Television forums
and radio spots blare out their
emotion-based appeals. The
Right-to-Life campaign has even
reached the bumper sticker level,
depicting a fetus and the message
“stop killing me.”

Anti-abortion activists are
politically astute. Realizing
grassroot support takes the form
of Congressional interest, their
campaign has achieved initial
results. Two amendments now in
the House Judiciary Sub-
committee Number Four are
seeking to reverse the Supreme
Court decision.

The Hogan Amendment seeks to
define a human being as existing
from the moment of conception.

Nicholas Von Hoffman

egg is granted due process and
equal protection of the law. The
Whitehurst Amendment. utilizing
the politically expedient pass-the-
buck approach, wants to remove
Constitutional protection and let
individual states decide the
abortion question.

Fortunately there is little
danger in the immediate passage
of either amendment. In order to
become law, a two-thirds af-
firmative vote by both houses of
Congress, followed by ratification
by three-fourths of the states, is
required.

within-the-system the
Right-to-Lifers have overlooked
the shallow history of abortion
laws.

Although “murder" is cried in
the same breath with abortion,
the law never considered it in that
manner. There has been only one
case in the English-speaking
world where a woman has been
prosecuted for terminating a
pregnancy.

In 1971, Shirley Wheeler of
DeLand, Fla. was convicted of
manslaughter for ending her six-
month pregnancy. However, upon

z‘i‘; .5 .
probat he judge did make one
interesting stipulation to the
probation. Wheeler had to quit
living with her Florida boyfriend
and retum to the sanctity of her
parents‘ North Carolina home.
Apparently her lifestyle. not the
abortion. was being questioned.

The right to choiceshould not be
trampled down by those wishing
to infect their personal morality
upon others. Anti-abortion con-
stituents fail to see through their
righteousness to a pressing social
need. Abortion upon demand is an
individual right and should be
held as such.

journalists have been disrupting
the arbored tranquillity of
Petersburg. Va. US. Grant could
not have made more noise than
this mob hot after the bod of one
Moses Malone, a 6-f00t-11—inch
high school senior.

The University of New Mexico,
that ancient seat of learning
where knowledge is reverenced
as in few other places, stationed a
man in Petersburg for three
months in order to get the young
Moses to matriculate at Cactus
U., where when eyes grow weary
from study they like to play a
little basketball. The man was
frustrated by a certain Lefty
Driesell of the University of
Maryland, who crowed to the
world that Moses‘ “Mama
wanted him to go to Maryland.
and he listened to her.“

Mr. Lefty said that Mother
Malone was moved by ad-
miration for Maryland‘s ill-
proportioned brick buildings,
which give the campus the air of
a classical revival penal com-

Collegiate Athletic Association‘s

for battalions of recruiters to
hector a teenage kid into signing
an agreement to play for far
lower wages than what the New
York Knicks would pay.

Not that there aren't many
violations of NCAA rules. “I got
$50 a touchdown and $1 a yard,"
says Jim Kirby of Long Beach
State, an institution on indefinite
NCAA probation, which deprives
it of television revenues and
prohibits it from playing post-
season games. John Read, a
businessman booster for Long
Beach athletics is quoted by
Sports Illustrated as saying: “I
helped Kirby get a loan, but
believe me ours was a penny-ante
business compared with the big
money operations going on in Los
Angeles. I know because I'm a
member of USC‘s Cardinal and
Gold Club."

Of course all this sneaking and
hiding isn‘t to conceal anything
illegal. There are a few charges
of cheating on exams, but even
that isn‘t unlawful. The crime,
such as it is, consists of older men
paying younger men to play a
game, hardly worth getting

Darrell Royal, the football coach
at the University of Texas, as
saying: “You‘re out there trying

wondering is when you're going
to start talking money.“ “When
they get to the bottom of
Watergate,“ Indiana‘s Bobby
Knight is recorded as predicting,
“they'll ﬁnd a football coach.“

lt needn't be. The aversion to
professionalism is cultural lag,
and hanging on to it simply
creates messy contradictions.

Per se, there's nothing ob-
jectionable about a place like
UCLA becoming a farm team and
developing stars for the Seattle
Supersonics or the Philadelphia
76ers. Nonproﬁt institutions own
many different kinds of
businesses for the same reasons
that they invest their en-

The dividing line should be self-

strange contradiction in terms
can be abolished. thus allowing
chaps like Mr. Moses Malone to
play professionally for the

going to school there or anywhere
else by paying his tuition out of

offcampus jobs do.

Caution: Mining can be
hazardous to your health

By JAMES BRANSCOME

NEW MARKET, Tenn. — “Mother"
Jones, that elderly rabble-rouser who beat
coal operators with brooms and became a
coal~field legend in the bloody United Mine
Workers organizing drives earlier in this
century. promised when she got to heaven
she would harass the Lord about the pitiful
condition of West Virginia coal miners.
“Either Mother Jones did not make it up
there or the Lord is a coal operator,“ a
retired t‘.M.W. organizer said recently.

TheMother Jones dilemma aside, it is still
hell to be a coal miner.

On Nov. 12, a nation atpeace with the oil-
rich Arabs could be at war with the Ap-
palachian coal-miners. On that date, when
the union‘s contract with the nation‘s coal
and oil corporations expires —- coal
production in the United States is heavily
owned by the major oil companies —— the
hell the miners have been getting may be
visited upon the rest of the nation. Gasless
Sundays are only incovenient; cold days
and dark nights are something else.

THE COAL MINERS' outrage is easily
understandable. From 1839 to the present,
more than 120,000 miners have died in
United States coal mines and 1.5 million
more have been maimed and disabled. The
death toll averages out to more than two
lives lost every single day for 135 years.
Last year 132 coal miners, out of a total
work force of 164,000, were killed and
11,067 were injured. So far this year 58
have been killed. Each year 3,000 miners
die from black lung, a suffocating disease
caused by coal dust and corporate and
governmental negligence of mine con-
ditions.

In the new contract, the reform
leadership of the union‘s president, Arnold
R. Miller, is demanding higher wages, new
safety standards, sick pay, increased
pensions and a number of other benefits
long enjoyed by other industrial unions.
Coal miners, among other union members
— in steel, rubber, the auto industry —
work in the most hazardous conditions and
are the lowest paid.

Publicly. the Bituminous Coal Operators
Association, the combine which negotiates
for the industry, has promised nothing.
Privately, they say they are willing to
trade moderawa increased wages and
benefits for a guarantee against wildcat
strikes, usually over safety conditions,
which are as sacred to miners as their oath
of obligation. Even if Mr. Miller dared to
negotiate on this point, it is certain that the
contract would not be ratified by the rank
and file, which this year intends to look the
deal over with an enthusiasm fired by the
right, won last December, to approve the
contract.

NO MATTER how good the contract
looks, some observers are predicting that
coal miners may also decide to get in a lick
against Mr. Miller, who is maintaining a
strange silence on the shift of the coal
industry from Appalachian deep mines to
Western strip mines. Coal miners who
remember John L. Lewis’s decision
to allow mine mechanization in order to
drop the miners’ rolls from 535,000 to
200,000 in a decade, ushering in the new era
of Appalachian poverty, see a familiar
threat in the move West.

Silence on the East-to-West shift com-

bined with Mr. Miller‘s refusal to do
anything to get a meaningful stripmine bill
from this Congress have agitated the coal
miners. They do not intend to struggle to
keep from dying in the ground only to
emerge and be killed on the surface by a
strip-mine-induced flood or landslide. Mr.
Miller, who used to call for abolition of
strip mines, is headed toward a showdown
with his own restless membership.
Should a coal strike come, it would be up
to President Nixon to end it. He could
invoke a Taft-Hartley injunction for a
cooling-off period, but coal miners might
not even obey their own leader’s call, let
alone Mr. Nixon’s, for a return to work. As
long as there has been a Taft-Hartley law,
there has been a miner’s saying that “Mr.
Taft and Mr. Hartley can mine the coal.”

COAL SLTPPLIESat utilities are already
down dramatically from normal stock-
piles. The Tennessee Valley Authority, the
country’s largest utility, has only a 26-day
supply at one of its steam plants. On the
East Coast, only Massachusetts utilities
have the normal 70-to—100day stockpiles.
Some steel mills have only a fifteenday
supply.

Even if a strike should last only two to
three weeks, as union spokesmen op-
timistically hope, for the sake of their
beleaguered medical and pension fund,
which draws 80 cents for each ton of coal
mined, there could be selective brownouts

and layoffs, particularly in the East.

Unquestionably, a frenzied coal hunt this
fall by utilities, which already have some
coal priced at $32 a ton, three times its
production cost, will force utility bills to
rise even further.

Even if a miners‘ strike is somehow
avoided, that does not lessen the im-
portance of this nation’s collecting its
corporate and moral body and repenting
its sins in the coal fields. Unless that
happens, coal miners may have to use
coal‘s rising fortunes to get Mother Jones ’5
message across themselves.

Job equality for women still a long way off

industries.

By FRANCES LEAR

LUS ANGELES —— The
American businessman is losing
his head over women. He claims
that he employs them if they are
qualified; pays them what they
are worth; involves them high in
the decision-making process, and
even welcomes their becoming
corporate presidents. A fine
public posture. After all, women
want to be treated like any other
commodity in the market place.
not to be subsidized, not to be
given preferential treatment.
The Supreme Court has held that
women are entitled to wage
parity. But what really is hap-
pening?

A kind of hysteria is gripping
our corporate leaders. On the
onehand, they have lost over $100
million in court actions brought
by women: on the other, they
support large in-house staffs of
equal-opportunity officers.

PRIVATE ACTIONS belie
public positions. Recently an
officer of a major computer
company urgently needed a
highlyadvanced woman engineer
with a particular area of ex-

pertise. When my company found
his woman engineer she was also
in an ethnic minority — to in-
dustry, a “doubleheader." Two
months later] was still receiving
letters from the officer promising
to consider this candidate. I could
conclude only that he was not in
such a hurry to hire a woman
engineer.

Eavesdrop with me on a young
woman being interviewed by a
firm in the communications
industry. “Actually the job is
worth $20,000 but our offer to you
is $16,000 because you have only
been making $14,000."

This offer is not only an insult
but it ignores the axiom of
American business you get
what you pay for. Except where
the talents of women are con-
cerned. Women are almost
always underpaid.

TWO WOMEN, who were
carefully screened. were sub
mitted to a banking institution.
The first, a recent M.B.A., was
hired at $16.500. The second had
been earning $18,500 where her
male counterparts were
receiving $25,000. Equal pay for

equal work. so we submitted her
at the higher salary. She was not
interviewed past the initial
screening. At $18,500 she was
palatable. At $25,000 she was
outside the accepted parameters
for women.

What is the explanation for the
unbusinesslike behavior of the
few enlightened companies that
are searching for management
women? They are going straight
to male-oriented search firms
that have never before
represented women. Why would
good businessmen choose such
inexperienced consultants when
there are search firms owned by
women skilled in the recruitment
and placement of women?

Because industries do business
with women in a manner that
transgresses logic. One industry,
for instance, has a two-tier
economic system. it pays
standard search fees to the firms
it uses exclusively to find male
employes. but when a women‘s
search firm phoned a short time
ago. it was told it would have to
accept a lower fee structure. This
drives talented women to other

less discriminatory

AN H ONEST man recently said
to me that if he saw a woman
pilot on his plane, he would get
off. Funny. But not smart. Did he
have the same lack of confidence
toward women in business? He
admitted he did. Therefore. in his
company, and his is far from
unique. highly competent women
reach invisible ceilings beyond
which they cannot go.

Women have too long been the
battered children of industry
Theyare weary of training young
men with degrees who quickly
take giant steps up the corporate
ladder. leaving their women
teachers far behind. There are
countless unfair employment
practices, from the elevation of
showcase superwomen to the
entrapment of women at
entry level. In business one wou
think it‘s performance that
counts. No so. Ability is obscured
by businessmen‘s fear that
seismographic man-shock will
result from the appearance of
women on executive floors

1 do not underestimate the
discomfort of men in high places
admitting women to equally high
places. And I do not deny that
women often contribute to their
own upward immobility But I
am humiliatedas are all women.
to know that corporations are
forced to hire us by laws and
pressune groups that we are
not sought for our own sakes.

High school seniors earn
college credit in summer

Perhaps you‘ve seen a few
students on campus who look a
little younger than the average
freshmen.

More than likely they are the 12
high school students par-
ticipating in the University's
summer program for superior
high school students.

THE PROGRAM. now in its
twelfth year, allows students
entering their last year of high
school to take up to six hours of
credit and get a taste of college
life.

Entrance is based on the

students American College
Testing (ACT) scores. his
academic record, and personal
application.

Originally coordinated through
the Registrar‘s Office, it is now
under the direction of Dr. John L.
Greenway, whose duties include
advising the students.

DR. GREENWAY explained
that the program, in moving from
the control of the Registrar to his
office, is in a transitional stage,
and his duties are still being
defined.

He has begun a course. for the
program’s students which “gives
the group more cohesion, and
gives me a chance to see if they
are having any problems."

Entitled the “junior‘s
colloquium“, the one credit hours
course was implemented by
Greenway to “challenge them to
think instead of just memorizing
facts."

Abortion

KCLU challenges Kentucky legislation

B) K.\\' ('UY'I‘H
PIditor-in-(‘hief
Kentucky ’s controversial abortion bill, passed in
the closing days of the 1974 legislature, has failed to
satisfy either Right to Life or pro—abortion factions.
Although the bill would have little effect on the
abortion practice in Kentucky. many of its sections
will be tested as to their constitutionality by the
Kentucky Civil Liberties Union (KCLU).

'l‘llri anti-abortion group. Right to Life. has ac-
cepted the bill as “partial relief” and continues to
pursue a you-mayAhave-won-the-battle-but-there's-
still-thevwar attitude.

Prompted by the Jan. 22. 1973 Supreme (‘ourt
abortion decision which voided restrictive abortion
laws in Kentucky and 45 other states. the General
Assembly this year adopted the conservative SB
259. a bill which states Kentucky‘s legal, but more
retrictive. interpretation of the Court decision.

SB 259 compromised with Sen. Tom Easterly‘s
iD-Frankforti less restrictive SB 238 and allows
that a woman may obtain an abortion at her
physician's advice during the first trimester of her
pregnancy.

After the first three months. however. a pregnant
woman who is unmarried or under 18 years of age
must obtain a parent's consent,

K(‘1,L'hasfiled suit to contest the new law. which
was signed by Gov. Wendell Ford on March 29. on
the grounds that it is unconstitutional,

“’l‘llti BILI. is an effort to discourage physicians
from performing abortions." said Robert Sedler.
l'K law professor and KCLL' attorney.

Sedler said a hearing on the suit should be held
soon after the pre-trial conference on July 15. The
abortion bill went into effect June ‘21.

Sections of the law to be contested are:

the requirement of a husband's consent in the
decision to abort after the first trimester;

the banning of the saline method of abortion;

the requirement of a 24-hour wait period bet-
ween tiling required consent forms and the abor-
tion,

the allowance of a hospital to refuse its facilities
for abortion practice

lltltt'l'ZVl‘ZR. these sections probably would not
affect abortion services in Kentucky because very
few abortions in the state are performed after the
first trimester. according to Dr. Phillip (‘rossen, a
Lexington obstetrician and gynecologist. long-time
abortion advocate. and a plaintiff in Sedler's court
case

Kentucky Right to Life groups have considered
SB 259 a semi-triumph. line of the most persistent
lobbying groups in Frankfort, the anti-abortion
organiiation was "satisfied" with the bill. said
Ronald Wheat. the Lexington chapter v we president
and member of the Kentucky organization‘s Board
of Directors

“l was relieved with SR 2:39.“ Wheat chuckled.
"for the very reason that I thought for a while there
we might not have a hill at all "

Part of the mystery of the theatre
came to Lexington Sunday, when Joe
B. Skeen auctioned off the props, ar-
titacts and antiques from Metro
Golden Mayer.

Although the pieces could not have
numbered over 500, each demanded a
close view from members of the
audience, to validate age and
authenticity. Some were pieces which
belonged in the home of a king or
queen. But the prices they brought did
not reflect this.

Some Peruvian rugs went for under
$500 -— perhaps the buyers smelled a
bargain.

The crowd which filled one room at
the Holiday Inn was mixed, to say the
least. Some folks appeared in ieans
while others came in style with large
hats and large pocket books.

The auctioneer called out the items
and did not prolong the bidding. It was
