SG’s 1979 operating budget

receives increase of $2,500:
fee raised for legal advisor

BY BRIDGET MCFARLAND
Staff Writer

UK‘s Student Government Senate
approved a welcomed increased
budget last night. The $l2.500 budget
was increased $2.500 from last year‘s
budget.

Gene Tichenor. SG president. said
the increase was long overdue. “It‘s
been awhile since an increase. We
needed more money because of
inflation and we would like to increase
our conference trip activities."

Tichenor added that the Senate had
requested a $6000 increase from the
University. but only $2.500 was
granted. _

The Senate also voted to raise the
fee for its Legal Services attorney.
Chester Care. from $600 to $|.000 for
the fall semester. In turn. Care will
increase his services from two~and-
one-half hours per week to four hours
per week.

Care will also take over the Tenant
Services program offered by $6. In
the past. a Tenant Services advisor
cost 50 an additional $250 a semester.

Billy Bob Renner. SG vice-president.
said Tenant Services were seldom used
while Legal Services were usually
booked full. Renner added that Care
was long overdue for a raise.

The Senate expressed concern
about whether the tenant services
advisor should be giving out legal
advice. Since the program often
involves legal matters. the Senate
thought it best that an attorney be
available to advise students.

Stockton Wood. law senator. told
the Senate that a deal is being worked
out with the UK Law School to hire
third-year law students to man Legal
Services. The law students would be
supervised by UK faculty members,

Wood said there was not enough
time to implement the program this
semester but if a program can be
satisfactorily worked out with the law
school. the program would be in effect
for the spring semester. lfthe program
is implemented. Care would not be
rehired and the law school would be
paid $l000 for its services.

members to coordinate the activites of

'I‘ichenor told the Senate it was
necessary to advertise the committee
positions since few minority students
were aware of their existence. He said
the committee essentially has been
inactive the last few years. He added
that he did not think $50 was an
inordinate sum for overcoming
problems of minority students.

In other areas. the Senate:
passed by a two-thirds vote a
constitutional amendment which
would create two freshman positions
on the Senate. The amendment must
be voted on a second time before it is
accepted.

ROTC enrollments increase after
recruiting, program improvements

By ALICE LYNCH
Staff Writer

Freshman enrollment in Military
Science l0l has doubled since last fall.
despite the fact that UK's Army
ROTC program has lacked a director
since last May.

In addition. the number of juniors
and seniors under contract to the US.
Army this fall has increased by about
25 percent over last year's figures.

Acting program director Maj.
James T. Chester, Jr.. said the
significant increase in ROTC‘s student
enrollments is due to better
recruitment by staff and cadets.

“One Cadre member on the staff.
Sgt. Maj. Donald Sayers. and three or
four cadets have been responsible for
the increase." he said. “They worked
with (students during) the Advising
Conference this summer. and during
drop-add.

Junior ROTC cadet Bob Leach. an
active recruiter in this summer‘s
freshman advising conference. said the
major factor attracting new cadets
were the scholarships available
through the ROTC program.

Leach said recruiters tell
prospective cadets that the lower
division courses are “an informative.
easy. and fun way to earn two credit
hours."

“The major purpose of the l00- and
200-level courses is to improve the
military-civilian relationship. which

has been bad since the Vietnam War;
to erase the stereotype of the ROTC
cadet; and to show a student what the
Army’s like.“ Leach said.

“Everyone's got a negative attitude
about ROTC."said Dennison. adding
that students change their minds after
being in the lower division courses.

“There are no uniforms. no haircuts.
no obligations in the first two years.“
said Chester. “It's just an academic
class.

“Between their sophomore and
junior years. they (ROTC students)
have to make a decision. If they decide
to continue in Army ROTC. and are
qualified to do so. then they go under
contract to the Army and incur an
obligation.“ he said.

Cadets. such as senior David Pratt.
gave different reasons for the increase
in ROTC enrollments.

“The program has gotten l00
percent better since I was a junior.“
Pratt said. crediting the Cadre (staff /
with strengthening the program.

“The Cadre shows a personal
interest in the cadets. such as helping
them with their grades. The program‘s
going to keep improving as long as the
Cadre shows the interest they have.“
he said.

“When I was a junior. the seniors
didn‘t do a thing." Pratt said. “When I
became a senior. the seniors took over
more of the instruction of freshmen
and sophomores; this helps seniors.
because that's what they’re going to be
doing (after graduation) — training.“

Leach said modular training. which
includes such activities as scuba diving
and skydiving. is another one ofArmy
ROTC‘s “major drawing cards."

Chester also credited part of the
program's improvement to the caliber
of students enrolling. “The quality of
the cadets has increased each year.
militarily and academically. in the
three years I’ve been here." Chester
said. “We stress academics first.“

Both Pratt and ROTCjunior cadet
Ken Dennison said intramural sports
have strengthened the program and
helped unify the cadets. “We compete
against other ROTC units in college.
and also against Army units. That
keeps the interest up." Pratt said.

Many people in the Army ROTC
program do not believe the loss ofthe
director has been a detriment to the
program.

“The lack of a director isn‘t going to
hurt the program." said Sgt. Maj.
Sayers. “In the Army. you‘re trained to
drive on regardless of what happens.“

The previous director. Lt. Col.
Bobbie G. Pedigo. was relieved of his
duties at UK during the summer
following an offical investigation into
charges of conduct which “reflected
poorly on himself. the Army and
Army ROTC." Pedigo was reassigned
to Fort Knox and an offical letter of
reprimand was placed in his record.

Lt. Col. Wade c. Smith. Pedigo's
replacement. is scheduled to arrive on
campus Nov. I.

Carter plans to veto tuition credit

By BROOKS JACKSON

Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON The White
House made it clearer than ever
yesterday that President Carter.
despite congressional efforts to avert
it. intends to veto legislation that
would give income tax credits of up to
$250 a year to offset college costs.

A House-Senate conference
committee scaled back earlier versions
of the bill in hopes of getting around
Carter's previously announced plans
to veto the measure as inflationary and
misdirected.

But at a White House briefing
yesterday Joseph A. Califano. Jr..
secretary of health. education and

welfare. said he will urge disapproval
anyway.

“The tuition tax credit that the
House-Senate conference committee
approved last week is ineffective and
inequitable in providing any really
needed assistance to families of
children in college." Califano said.

“It is such a bad tax policy and such
bad education policy that if it were
enacted by the Congress I would
recommend that the president mm the
legislation."

Califano argued that the tax credit
bill would fuel inflation. increase
goyernment spending and aid affluent
families which do not need it.

He urged Congress to approve

instead an administration~backed
measure which has been languishing in
the House Rules Committee for
several months and is generally
thought to be dead.

Both measures would cost roughly
SI billion a year. Califano said. but the
administration bill would funnel the
money in grants and reduced interest
on loans to families earning up to
525.000 a year.

Califano said that because the tax-
credit measure would aid all students
by the same amount. it would
encourage schools immediately to
raise their tuition by the amount ofthe
credit. which would reach a maximum
of $250 per student in I980.

Can there be life after television?

My family and I stopped watching
television on August I8. [978. With
considerable ceremony. not unlike
primitive tribes offering a virgin for
sacrifice. we carted our ten-year-old
black and white portable to the
basement. lifted it onto the shelfabove
the cat box. and wedged it in between
the half-empty paint cans and the
power saw that never cuts straight.

Admittedly, the set‘s malfunction-
ing aided our act of will. We returned
from vacation to discover a single
silver line occupying the space the
picture used to be. It seemed the
perfect time to cary out a long
contemplated revolt against the
institution that can offer. without self-
consciousness. Charlie is A ngel.v(sex as
life) and The Newlywed Game (life as
sex).

Although proud of our unexpected
courage. we still transferred the set
with great uncertainty. Would the kids ’
be left out of conversations in the
school lunch room? Would they feel
deprived. hating us later in life'.’ When
the twins begin whining on alternate

I am shocked and outraged at the
outcome of the trial of eight Iranians

indignation stems from the
implications and attitudes reflected in
the verdict \ow that lurner's
freedom of speech has been presened.

it‘s time to reconsider the issue of free
speech at UK. Judging from the
verdict. we can only assume that
freedom of speech will only result in
retaliation by Dean Burch.

Dean Burch. in his trial testimony.
stated that it was the protestors‘s
attitudes that were offensive and
disruptive. How can you disrupt a
public meeting with attitudes?
Personal and political attitudes should
not. lll otir opinion. be subjected to
legal scrutiny and harassment. We
deplore I‘K‘s attitudes on our civil
liberties.

Speaking of attitudes. what about
those displayed during the trial‘.’ To
cite a flagrant example. after two days
of questioning the Iranians. the
prosecution apologized for not
correctly pronouncing their Pakistani
names. We also wonder about the
dispensation of justice when the judge
repeatedly professed boredom and
labeled the proceedings tedious and
then awakened in time to recommend
harsher fines and sentences.

Friday‘s verdict muffles free speech
and political discussion and seems to
encourage in a l'K student population
an indifferent stance on political
issues.

Discriminatory

lwould like to comment on the lack
of concern and support of the Student
Government in regard to the trials of
the foreign students accused of

  

     

disrupting the Stansfield Turner
speech last April.

The Student Government has as its
purpose the representation of the
entire student body. regardless of race.
creed or religion.‘ However. not since
the students‘ arrest. or until now
that the trials have commenced. has
the Student Government or any of its

'agencies taken any action toward the
aid of these students.

I feel that the Student Government‘s
lack of support and concern toward
these students‘ welfare may be directly
attributed to the fact that most ofthese
are foreign students and as such are
one of the minority groups on campus.
This leads me to conclude.
furthermore. that had these students
been in the majority block. the Student
Government would have. by now.
passed resolutions comdemning the
trials. and or by some action. given
moral support to the persecuted
students.

It appears then. that the Student
Government. by an overt lack of
support to these students. is acting
discriminatory towards minority
student groups on campus and are
therefore acting as an arm of the
administration.

How can we as minority students be
assured that the Student Government.
which is formed to be the political and
social voice representing the entire
student population. has our interest in
mind when it does not speak out
against such flagrant abuse of
students' rights by the Administra-
tion'.‘

although its formula ofoff-bcat rogues

On the other hand. reading becomes

faint gnashing of teeth. Yesterday

the clothes basket to find the onesthat

Giving up television also grants an
historical perspective. I did not feel the
weight of the Arab-Israeli conflict

Television helps to break down
analytical responses. helps to

substitute the immediate emotion for

‘ the historical view. but this can have a
positive effect. One likes to think. even
if only for the space ofa bug. that they
can pull it off.

I don‘t have any well-shaped
conclusions. The final audit remains to
be made. by an accountant wiser than

live better without the damn thing. but
I have many weak moments. The only
lesson learned for certain is that life
without television deprives children of

Collecting trophies is an old habit for the UK basketball
team. as Coach Joe B. Hall and Athletic Director Cliff
Hagen reel in another after the UKIT last winter. It now
looks as though these trophies will have a permanent '

pressure.

The students also completed
a leadership questionaire which
determined their leadership
ability. The questionarie was
divided into three aspects of
leaderships: autocratic. shared
and laisser-faire. and it was
designed to measure which
leadership style the students
favored.

Students learned that in

makes decisions without
consulting his group. the result
was productivity.
