To Appoint New
Athletic Director

"V

By BOB ZWICKER
Naming of a new athletic director to succeed
the late Bemie Shively was postponed by the UK
Board of Tnistees Monday.
Dr. John V. Oswald, acting on a recommendation by the Athletics Board, nominated Dr. William
E. McCubbin for the post. However, a motion to
delay action on the appointment was approved
unanimously by the trustees.
In other action, the trustees approved establishment of a new School of Social Professions at UK
and voted to name the new residential complex
after two former UK deans
Miss Sarah Cibson
Blanding and Dr. Albert D. Kirwan.
The vacancy for athletic director, however,
was the principal issue at the meeting.
Dr. McCubbin, a former UK assistant coach
who now heads the physical education department
at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, was the unanimous choice of a seven-ma- n
screening committee
headed by Robert L. Johnson, vice president of
student affairs.

By LINDA ROBERTS

The ironworkers strike which has been slowing
construction on the University's
office-classroo-

complex could end today, according to one union
official.
If the strike ends, workers will be able to get
lack to full time construction and the large
excavation in front of the Administration Building will probably remain an eyesore and hazard
for a shorter time than previously was expected.
The ironworkers are striking against the Asso-ciate-d
Steel Erectors of Kentucky for higher wages.
The ironworkers are now receiving $5.20 an hour
and are demanding an 80 cent an hour increase.
William G. Cravens, financial secretary and
treasurer of Ironworkers Local 70, said that negotiators are nearing a settlement. He said he feels
that today's meeting will bring an end to the four
week old strike.
Sam Ezelle, head of the Kentucky AFL-CIsaid that if union's demands are met, the iron
workers will be making more than $10,000 a year
based on a 2,000 hour year.
In addition to the wage increase the ironworkers are striking for 12 additional demands.
Included in these demands are better working
conditions, increased pension benefits, and an
clause based on age. Also the
union is asking for the payment of parking fees
on jobs where this is necessary and that specified
holidays be designated on Friday.

Fifteenth Meeting Today
Today's meeting between the two groups is
the 15th meeting since the strike started at midnight on May 31, when the contract for the iron-

workers expired.
Mr. Cravens stated that he is hopeful that
this meeting will be the last in the series even
though the other side has not come close to
meeting the 80 cent increase demand.
The negotiations are being held in Louisville.
A committee headed by Don Whalen
represents
the company interests while the ironworkers are
represented by a committee headed by Mr. Cravens.
Robert Kerley, vice president for business affairs and treasurer of the University, said that
the delay will not affect the University financially
because a total agreement was reached under
the original contract.
In the past week, work has slowed on the
complex since all trades are eventually affected by the ironworkers strike. Work
centering around the large ditch adjacent to the
Administration Building has been severely hamcould not work
pered since other
until the ironworker's concluded their tasks.

Former UK Official

Leo Chamberlain Dies
Dr. Leo M. Chamberlain, a past vice president of the University,
died Wednesday morning at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

During his 33 year stay at UK, Dr. Chamberlain served in
numerous capacities.
A native of Chalmers, Ind., he was an alumnus of Indiana
University where he received the bachelor of arts degree in 1926,
his master degree in 1927 and Ph.D. degree of philosophy in 1931.

Dr. Chamberlain was appointed to the UK faculty in 1929 as
assistant professor of education. He served as director of the
Bureau of School Services until he accepted the position of registrar

in 1937.

In 1962 Dr. Chamberlain returned to his teaching duties and
served as professor of higher education until retiring in 1965. In
1966 he was given an honorary doctor of laws degree from the
University.

Chandler's Motion
The screening committee's choice was approved
by the Athletics Board earlier on Monday, but only
by an 5 vote. The dissenting council members

Charlie

Bradshaw.

The motion to delay action on the appointment was made by former Gov. A. B. Chandler,
who is a member of both the Athletics Board
and the Board of Trustees.
Mr. Chandler said after the meeting that he
considered Bradshaw "the most qualified" person
for the post. He said the situation might not be
resolved until the University has a new president.
The matter is scheduled to be brought up again
at the next meeting of the Board of Trustees on
Sept. 17.
Reaction to the Board's postponement was
voiced yesterday by Tim Futrell, summer president of the UK Student Government.
"I personally was disturbed by the Board's
action and hope it doesn't have omens for the
selection of the next president of the University,"
Futrell said.
In a prepared statement, Futrell said:

"It is particularly distressing that the meeting
specifically called for the purpose of selecting
the Athletics Director should procrastinate until a
later date on the very decision on which it was
called into session. Not only from the viewpoint
of the UK student population, but from the
standpoint of the citizens of Kentucky, let's select
our athletics chief soon . . .

Out On Appeals Bond

Jail Is Learning Experience, Pratt Says

By DEBBIE TASSIE
"Maybe everybody ought to
go to jail for a week or two to
see what it's like. Or put yourself into a room or a closet,
some kind of confinement where
you can see what it's like to
have your concern for life taken
out of y ou."
back
Pratt leaned
Don
thoughtfully in his chair, his
mind on a theoretical problem,
away from the practical concerns
of the playground he is helping a group of kids to build.
He sat with his feet on the wall
to avoid his puppy who was
trying to bite his toes.
Pratt, who was convicted of
draft evasion in April, was released from Jefferson County Jail
after the Sixth Circuit Court ruled
tliat the bond set in the District Coiut where the case was
originally heard, was illegal. He
is now awaiting an appeal which
will take place sometime between
October and Decemler.
How did being in jail affect

Don? He began writing a book
about his experience, what the
prisoners said, his conflicts with
them, his conflicts with himself.
He commented that at first the
others didn't accept him.

In the midst of his thought-fulnes- s
he flashed a grin and
said, "It was neat. Being in jail
was a learning experience, something like being in college." Don
said he woukl like to see the
j)eople he met there again under
different conditions.
Shared Small Cell
The area he lived in consisted
of a walk about 30 yards long
bordered by thirteen cells and
a shower. He shared an 8 by 4
cell with another prisoner.
There were no bx)ks in the
jail. At one time, the prison
provided a library, but this was
removed at the instigation of one
of the jailers.
The only newspapers on the
walk were provided by subscrip

tions that Don and another prisoner had.
What did they do for entertainment? They played cards a
lot "Some of the guys were
pretty good at inventing card
games." And they slept. After
getting up for breakfast at 5:30
most of them went back to bed.
They had no access to a gymnasium, nor were they ever allowed off the walk, although both
these things had been possible
before. Don attributes the lack
of privileges to the political

structure.

Upon admission to jail, a prisoner must either waive his rights
to any mail or agree to censorship. The censorship included
removing newspaper articles and
returning letters. Even an issue
of the Kernel was returned.
While he was there, Don organized discussion groups about
such things as personal problems
and the war and wrote letters
for other prisoners. He is convinced of the necessity for pri

son reform. He said, "I don't
know tliat I did enough while
I was there; I hope I did some-

thing."
Expects Worst
Concerning his sentence, Don
said he had had expectations of
the worst before it was handed
down. However, he called the
severity, particularly the $10,000
bond which was later declared
illegal, "an expression of the
judge's emotions more than a

judgment."

UK law professor Robert

Sed-le-

r

who handled Pratt's case said
that severe sentences for those
who refuse induction are coiih
mon throughout the country. He
suggested tliat the purpose is to
deter others who might use the

same fonn of protest.
Don's current plans include
helping Presbyterian youth from
Kentucky clear land to build a
playground. He is also working
with people from Iexington to
form a citizens groups that will

be involved in problems of the
community. He woukl like to establish an education center either
on campus or in the community
because the "people of Lexington need to listen to ideas about

Vietnam."
in

Don finnly retains his belief
the rightness of his action. He

believes

it is necessary

to be

"completely honest in confrontation with the evil in government."
He feels it is the moral obligation of everyone living in this
country to improve the way of
life. He would like the political
structures to be more relevant
to the ieople.
Don said he doesn't know
that his act accomplished anything, but hopes that it and
others like it lave brought closer
the end of the war, the end of
the draft system, so that "maybe a few more people might not
become paid killers."

Camelot Isn't

By D. C. MOORE
Whoever said that movie makers can bring Broadway musicals
to the screen and make successful adaptations wasn't speaking of
the movie "Camelot" now showing at the Strand Theatre in downtown Lexington.
This movie which is part musical, part drama, and part love
story, is actually nothing but a high budget color spectacle and
shoukl have been left on Broadway.
On the screen there is very little in "Camelot" to retrieve it
from actual boredom. There isn't even a fairy tale effect. There
are no knights in flower, only Richard Harris as King Arthur.

r

v

V

Aiv

S

n&

P

King Arthur in this movie is a puzzling character who is fragmentary and listless. But Richard Harris as King Arthur can do two
things; one is act and the other is sing. He uses both assets to
bring poor dear Arthur to life.

-

And poor King Arthur being two timed by his wife Cuenevere
(Vanessa Redgrave) and Sir Lancelot (Franco Nero) just doesn't
stand to reason. The movie doesn't hint at reasons of any sort
for this conduct and Arthur knowing what's going on says I'm
not a man, I am a King." King Arthur just ignors what goes on
behind his back and carries out his idea for a trial by jury system.

Esse Whispers to Grandpa In "Yon Can't Take It With You"

There is too much movie realism and broadway fantasy in Camelot with no clear objective. There is too large an area for the
movie to cover and not enough time.
The actors are required to sing when they should act and act
when they should sing. There is a continuous jerky movement in
the movie. Incidental characters are introduced like Mordred(David
Hemmings) to add a villain to the movie and somehow bring the
weak structured movie to an end.

Not all is bad. There are several highlights in the movie worth
recalling.
One is the rolling frame sequence complete with music when
Lancelot comes to Camelot. Another is the double flashback showing
Cuenevere and Lancelot together which is carefully edited camera

The Beatles have done it
again. They have found a corporation called Apple Corps Ltd.
The organization will have
headquarters at Three Savile
How, just off Piccadilly in London and will conduct from there
a world wide enterprise in music
and films. The purpose of the
organization is to seek, promote
and produce new talent to eventual stardom.
The Beatles will also record
and produce for their own Apple Corps Ltd., exclusively.
The organization at present
is divided into two divisions;
Apple Music and Apple films.
Apple Music division's first
single will .feature Mary Hopkins, a young girl hailing from
the same village as Hichard Burton and Dylan Thomas.
The first album to be released
by the division will be George
Harrison's score for the film
"Wonderwall". The next two albums released will be: a Beatles'
successor to "Magical Mystery
Tour" and an LI featuring the
voice, guitar and songs of James
Taylor.
Heading the film division will
be Denis O'Dell producer of the
Beatles' film "A Hard Day's

outside of the Deep South there

"Since 1954," Dr. Clark says,

* THE KENTUCKY KERNEL, Thursday, June 27,

1908- -5

Kernel Forum: the readers write
God And Country
To the Editor of the Kernel:
This is in answer to the article I read in a late edition
of the Kentucky Kernel, expressing adverse opinion of the Pastor
of the Tatcs Christian Church
of Lexington.
You, being a member of the
Students for a Democratic Society, are either an advocate of
the Communistic Dictatorship,
or are really unaware of just
what you have joined. The title
of the organization has a very
misleading name. You are slowly
being lulled into the Communistic Dictatorship and are attempting to drag the rest of the good
Americans in with you.
The series ofCfod and Country
sermons were (sic) an excellent
thing. The Pastor is NOT a Mer

chant of Fear; he is stating to

his church (and all Christians)
their
that if they do not
rights and show appreciation for
them by their daily living and
example, they will lose them.

It is a great thing to live in
a country where a person may
state how he feels about our
government and can know that
no one is going to put him in
a concentration camp for it. It
is also good to know that he
may vote in elections and know
that he will not lose his friends
and his job for it; and that he
will not be put in jail for it; that
he may attend his church and
know that he will not be jailed
or killed for it.
I also believe in higher education. Higher education does advocate using one's mind; tyut be.
careful what you think oh, for

you can lose mind and sold for
wrong thinking and wrong actions. The University of Kentucky is a land grant college,
supported "by our state and some
funds for Agriculture and Mechanical Arts be sure to use
this for betterment and not for
degrading. It was never intended
that this University be used for
the downgrading and overthrowing of our country.
ACADEMIC FREEDOM -This is used to sometimes mislead. Yes, a professor SHOULD
have the freedom to teach his
subject for what it is; to contribute to the students' knowledge, to make him a better person in his chosen profession but
not to advocate the perversion
of our Constitution of the United
States and overthrowing our government. Communism has al

ready gotten its ugly head in the
University. We should not let it
progress further.
It is time for good Americans
to wake up and
our
allegiance to our country.
