The Athletic Board is no long-

considering Coldstream Farm
as a possible site for the new
football stadium, Sheryl Snyder,
a candidate for Student Government presidency, said last night.
The decision to eliminate this
site from the list is the result
of student referendum held last
fall, Snyder said.
Snyder made his disclosure
at a debate for Student Government candidates sponsored by
the government of Donovan Hall
and the Quadrangle.
Three University vice presi
er

dents denied this morning that
any decision about the elimination of the Coldstream Farm
site had been made. Vice President for Student Affairs Robert
Johnson said no decision to this
effect had been made and Vice
Glen wood Creech said that they
too had received no such infor-tohad received no such information. However, a usually reliable source in the Athletic Department said that Snyder's
statement was substantially correct.

Jefferson County Judge Mar-loW. Cook is basing his campaign for the COP gubernatorial
nomination on a little logic.
"Good government," he says
simply, "is good politics."
He says his successful record

job he says is second only to the
governorship, is one of the main
things he has to offer the voter.

TERENCE HUNT
In a surprise move this afternoon the University Board of
Trustees deferred approval of a
Students Rjghts Code pending a
report by a specially appointed
review committee.
This was the second time the
Board postponed action on the
rights code. At its March meeting the Trustees included the
code on the agenda as a discussion matter whereas many had expected it to gain approval then.
Acting on a motion by Louisville Trustee Sam Ezelle for more
time for deliberation and study,
the board directed Chairman and

through pamphlets.
Snyder agreed to this

prob-

lem.

"Most people at the Univerdon't know what Student
Government does," he said.
He plans to solve this problem through a newsletter and
through referendums.
"Students need to be heard.
I can't know what everyone
wants me to do" as a representative, he said.
At present Student Govern
sity

ment isn't effective, Snyder said,
but we must ask "why" and
"what can we do alxnit it."
The main reason is "because
of the apathy of every Ixxly at
UK," he said.
Even if the apathy were not
a factor, however, "it doesn't
make any difference unless Student Government has the power
to do something alxnit the other
problems.

Much of this will be corrected
by their proposed form of repre-

sentation, Kendall Threlkeld,
Snyder's running mate, said.
"Our representation is endorsed by the student congress
representation committee," she
said, and this makes it different
from the type proposed by the
other candidates.

64 Candidates In Race
For 23 Government Seats
By TERRY PARSONS
"Anyone can gripe about inefficiency, inconvenience,
practices, or unfairness, but
no one really has a right to complain until he is actively trying
to do something about it."
This is the reason Laura Mul--:
likin, one of 64 candidates, gave
for entering the race for Student
Government representative in
Thursday's election.
Twenty-thre- e
will be elected.
This year's number of candidates is little more than half of
last year's record 117.
Of those entering, there are
43 men and 21 women. Greeks
outnumber independents 49 to
15. Eighteen have had some previous experience with the Stuout-of-da- te

dent Government.
Most candidates simply expressed a desire to take a more
active part in campus life, and
to "get things done" as their
motives of running. Others had
more defined goals.
Beth Paulson, a SPER candidate, said she wanted to "create
a campus of surfs." Jeffrey
hopes to "subvert the campus with
theory, and to start a sexual revolution as well as having AWS
infiltrated by Lesbians."
There are eight candidates
who have served on Student Government during the past year.
The four running for
as representatives are: Joe Rolin,
member of Lambda Chi Alpha
and a committee chairman; Phillip Patton, a political science
major; Tom Sweet, member of
Theta Chi; and Joe Westerfield,
a member of Phi Kappa Tau.
Four members of the Executive
Board running for representative
are: Bob Abrams, a Fiji and
Director of the Department of
Public Relation; Stokes Harris,
an SAE and current head of the
Department of Interschool Relations; Jimmy Joe Miller; a

of the Department of Physical

Dr. Mangalam Sees Good Chance For

Beginning with a definition

By RON CHOLSON

Stressing the fact that the proponents of the philosophy of nonviolence in human affairs can offer no pat formulas for restructuring
institutions,
Dr. J. J. Mangalam, assistant
professor of sociology, said he
feels that "prospects for the
in a
practice of
democratic world are good."
But this is a wish, which is
presently not documented by
facts, he said.
Though the traditional institutions for teaching values, the
church and the home, seem to
be breaking down, there is no
magic solution to setting up a
system to teach values relevant
to the
progress of
human affairs, Dr. Mangalam
value-teachin-

galam proceeded to isolate manipulation as the fundamental
ethical problem in human interaction. Violence, according to
Dr. Mangalam, is the "participation in power." Power is "the
capacity to manipulate an individual or a group of individuals for our own ends."
"Any time we violate the
autonomy of an individual by
knowingly or unknowingly manipulating him, we have committed violence," he said.
Dr. Mangalam suggested a
system of "active
in which an effort would be
made "to invest resources to
achieve mutual ends without manipulation" whenever two
groups confront each other at
odds upon some issue.
according to
Dr. Mangalam, is "a highly rational idea" even though "the
amount of rationality we arc
capable of is very little." This
idea was developed more or less
in spite of its own proponents.
The analogy used was the development of the doctrine of inalienable human rights, life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness,
by the
founding
fathers of this country.
The large scale
experiments such as those of
Gandhi and Martin Luther King
have three characteristics, said
Dr. Mangalam. They are clear
goals, consensus of common values, and lack of available alternatives. But
ought
to become a sought after and
valued means itself, even if the
alternative means, violence, is
available, he said.
The difficulty with social science innovations, such as nonviolence, is that they are slow
to be internalized, that is, they
are slow to be incorporated into

Discussion following the lecture centered on social and ethical problems involved in manipulation.
according to
one audience member, may be
manipulative in itself in that it
represents an attempt to gratify
personal needs. Such manipulation is not ipso facto bad provided that both parties in a situation are aware that the other
and himself have basic needs
and both realize that each meets
his needs at the expense, but
with tlc consent of the other.

further difficulty is that
"some societies cherish violence
itself more than others"; violence
in such systems may be taught
as a positive value.
There must be a minimum of
commonality whenever two sides
are opposed: the willingness to
tolerate dissention rather than
resorting to violence for resolution, said Dr. Mangalam.

"My own basic contention is
that technology is at the root of
a lot of violence today. By technology I mean tools that help
us manipulate our environment.
What happened is this: we became successful in manipulating
our environment we became
technologically oriented, and
slowly absorbed technology into
our ends. Manipulation became
a value in itself. In this manipulation slowly we incorporated not only the
environment, but also the other

The Kernel would like to join

the families of the four UK faculty members tragically killed Monday in an airplane crash.
Certainly the sudden absence

of Dr. Silvio O. Navarro, chairman of the department of computer science; Dr. Jerome E. Cohn,

with candidates in the May primary. Contenders for the lieutenant
governorship share the podium tonight.
Two weeks ago candidates for
minor state offices were invited to
speak. A similar program for gubernatorial hopefuls is planned.

Especially in this crowded primary free of real issues are such
forums valuable. They provide students and professors a chance to
meet the candidates and to make
the candidates aware of the voter
potential on campus.

governor and governor address
themselves to important issues of
interest tothe University community and that members of the com-

munity take advantage of this opportunity to listen to the?e candidates and raise questions about
their platforms.
The Young Republicans on this
campus should wake up and realize their party is also having a
primary election, and invite COP
candidates to speak at the University.
In the past gubernatorial election Republican Louie Nunn lost
by only 13,000 votes. It is possible that the Republicans will stand
an even better chance in the 1967
election because of dissention
among Democratic ranks. We find
it strange that the Young Republicans are not any more enthusiastic about the thought of victory.

University a better institution of
higher learning.
We believe, however, that the
families and friends of the four
outstanding faculty may find some
consolation in the recollection of
the services they have performed
in the past some educating the
mind, others striving to improve
the health of the body and better
understand its secrets, or both.
It is not surprising that as these
four men were aboard the doomed
aircraft they were planning to
share their knowledge with others,
for they were en route to conferences and meetings.
Perhaps these scholars passed
from this life in a way in which
they would have been proud, for
they were, as always, preparing
to share their knowledge with
others.

Letters To The Editor;

Snyder, Threlkeld Records Queried
To the Editor of the Kernel:
As an independent I too am
strongly aware that representation,
as stated in a letter in the March
30 Kernel, is a major issue in the
Student Government election this
year.
The plan submitted by Mr. Snyder to the Student Government is
certainly an improvement over the
present system of representation.
However, as Mr. Snyder noted in
a debate with Mr. Cook on March
27, "there's not a great deal of
difference in our platforms." He
thus seemed to say this was to be
an election based on personalities,
or past records and not on what
the candidates intended to do if
elected.

In regard to Mr. Snyder's resolution which tripled the number of
representatives from the Men's Residence from one to three, therewas
a provision for these seats in the
Student Government constitution
beforehand, and it seems to indicate a bit of inefficiency in the
Government that these seats were
not allocated earlier, especially
since Mr. Snyder wrote the constitution!
In reading the biographies circulated by the campaign committee
for Mr. Snyder and Miss Threlkeld,
I

have seen a list of numerous bills

introduced by Mr. Snyder. However, in Miss Threlkeld's biography I noticed no bills listed, on a
list of committees. This leads me
to one question: "Miss Threlkeld,
what major, or minor, pieces of
legislation have you introduced to

Student Government this year?"

P.S. Perhaps Miss Threlkeld can
tell us if the President's Council
of Students ever decided if freshmen should wear beanies or not.

AWS Avoids Issues
Mary Alice Shipley's statement
that the SDS and YAF Position
Papers dealt strictly with rules and
regulations (Kernel, March 29) is
indicative of AWS total incapacity
to understand the issues. The one
thing the SDS Position Paper purposefully did not discuss was rules
and regulations. We avoid any suggestion of what closing hours should
be, in order to avoid obscuring the
larger issues.
What we did undertake in our
paper was (1) an analysis of the
undemocratic structure of AWS and
(2) criticism of AWS hesitancy to
discuss issues. Of course we have
opinions on rules and regulations,
but these two larger questions must
be settled first, before an analysis
of the rules and regulations can be

worthwhile.
Further examples of AWS' inability to meet the issues head on
were the statements by the incoming president and vice president
on hours. It was reported that their
feelings on hours differed. Indeed!
Jean Ward's startling analysis was
that she is "in the process of discovering new sides and new ideas."
Mary Alice Shipley, on the other
hand, says that she would lean
toward campus feelings. These
statements reflect a complete empti- -

ness of serious analysis of the issues
or proposals for resolving them.
