Smiling, with disarming friendliness, the spry neatly
dresed man is more than eager to talk about his all-
absorbing interest. Horsesare more than a job to Kob Ryen,
long—time head of University of Kentucky’s riding program.

Baiust with rosy c and bright blue eyes, Ryen, a
former citizen of Norway, explairned that he read about the
Bluegrass area in American horse magazines in the Nor-
wegian Jockey Club’s lounge. ,

“I was familiar with racing—l had raced horses in Nor-
way—so I said ‘better try’ and came over,” recalled Ryern.
His wife, 3-year-old son, and 5-year-old daughter ac-
companied him to the United States. “They are Americans
all and all,” said Ryen (witha slightaccent).

He smiledas he remembered his surprise that “Lexington,
which should be the capital of the horse world, had no place
you could go, get a horse and ride. I suddenly realized that,
by golly, (people) don’t ride much in Kentucky, except race
horses on the tracks, so we ought to do something.”

KENTUCKY ’

“I established a ridirng academy pretty soon on Westover
Farm (Versailles Road). After several years I bonght the
farm. 1 lave now Twin Brook Acres,” said Ryen roliirng the
“r” in brook.

Ayear later, in 1960, the riding program was established at
UK. “We started with one course called Light Horse
Husbandry,” said Ryan.

“The first classes were actually held right here on campus,
where the medicalcenter is now. It was an open field with an
old beef barn,” explained Ryen.

“The very first class I was impressed with was 102
students, of which ninety per cent were Gl’s coming back
from the war.” Laughirng, Ryen added, “That is the first and
only time Ihad more boys than girlsin any one class.”

“They (the 61’s) came from living in tents and barracks
and liked to have a little more outdoor living. They liked to
ride and get with horses,” he said.

Since then, the riding program has involved “students

Stephens will not post
JCC-UK separation bill

By GINNY EDWARDS
Managing Editor
and
PEGGY CALDWELL
Assistant Managing Editor

FRANKFORT—The chairman of the
house Education Committee said
yesterday he will continue to oppose a bill
which would remove Jefferson Com-
munity College (JCC) in Louisville, from
the UK system and place it under the
University of Louisville’s (U of L)
jurisdiction.

Rep. Don Stephens (D-Lexington) has
refused to post the bill, sponsored by
Norbe't Blume (D-Louisville), since it
went into committee Jan. 28. A bill is
posted when it is brought up for a vote in
the committee.

“If it were in the best interest ofJCC to
give it to U of L, I would consider it,”
Stephens said. He also said he “recognized
right away that it was not in the best in-

terest of UK."
Stephens said UK should be allowed to

keep JCC in its system because UK has
administered its community colleges well.
“Kentucky is second to no one in the nation
in the operation and quality of its com-
murnity colleges,” he said. “Ours is one of

three community college systems in the
country run by a single institution, and UK
should be commended instead of having to
defend itself.”

Blume charged that Stephens had been
influenced by UK administrators. “UK is
doing a good job blocking it (his bill) in
committee,” he said. “A high UK ad-
ministrator lives in his (Stephens')
district.”

Stephens said he knows the ad-
ministrator in question, but said no ad-
ministrator contacted him about the bill
until after he had made his decision not to
post it.

According to Biume, JCC was set up by a
resolution calling for joint administration
between UK and U of L before U of L
joined the state system. “U of L was in bad
financialshape at the time, so it fell by the
wayside,” Blume said.

Blume refered to an earlier controversy
that ensued over the amount of state
support UK and U of L would receive. UK
President Otis Singletary charged in
November that U of L was receiving more
state support per student than UK.

“Singletary criticized U of L, Blume
said, “But U of L has a higher percentage

Kyian ruling—
Publications board recommends second year trial period

By BRUCE WINGES
Editor-in-Chief
The Kentuckian magazine should be
allowed to continue publication for at least
another year on an experimental basis, the
Student Board of Publications recom-
mended Tuesday night.

Because only one of five issues
scheduled for the 1975-76 academic year
has been printed, the board said it could
not properly evaluate the Kentuckian
magazine. So it recommended the
magazine be continued for arnother year
before any evaluation is attempted.

The recommendation now goes to
President Otis A. Singletary for his ap-
proval.

The Kentuckian magazine replaced the

Kentuckian yearbook, which was

publidned for the last time last year. In
February, ms, the publications board
recommended the yearbook change to a
magazine format to combat the problems
of spiraling printing costs and small staff
because a yearbook offers little useful
practical journalism experience.

“Actually, we don’t have sufficient in-
formation to decide whether the magazine
is a success, or whether the magazine is a
failure,” said Betty Palmer, who chairs
the publications board.

Beth AnnJewell, a board member and
last year's Kentuckian editor, said “It
seems to me that with only one issue out
that we can’t really decide and that it has
to have another year.”

The Kentuckian magazine was

originally scheduled to print two issues
last semester, one irn September and
another sha'tly after Thanksgiving. Only
one isue of the magazine was published
last semester, however, largely because of
printing problems and to some extent
because of staff problems, said Ken-
tuckian Editor-in Chief Greg Hofelich.

“The bulk (i being behind may be at-
tributed to the (UK) Division of Printing,”
Hofelich said.

it took four weeks to print the first issue
of the magazine, which appeared in
November, he said. Student Publications
Advinr Narncy Green said it would
sometimes take as long as eight days for a
story to be set in type by the printing
division.

The magazine had to be printed with

UK’s ”vision of Printing—which prints
everything from UK basketball and
football programs to semester schedule
books—to meet Kentucky laws regulating
publications receiving state funds.

Under the law, if .a state institution has
the ability to print something paid for with
state funds, those facilities must be used
unless the state printing plant does not
have the facilities or the time to print the
publication.

The printing division has neither the
spare nor the facilities to print a magazine
such as the Kentuckian, said John Barker,

UK prirnting division administrative staff
officer.

“Our particular problem with a-
publication of that type is that we do not

Rep. Norbert Blume (D-
Louisville) feels so strongly about
his bill to place Jefferson Com-
munity College under University of
Louisville’s iurisdiction he's
willing to trade off the proposal for
support of a resolution requiring
UK to play basketball and football
with U of L.

House Education Committee
Chairman Rep. Don Stephens (D-
Lexington), who has up to now
effectively stopped the community
college bill by not allowing the
committee to vote on it, said Blume
offered to drop the issue if Stephens
supported the athletic resolution.

If Blume seems somewhat fickle
about the legislation he proposes,
Stephens seems just as insincere

 

Blume's trade-off
lacks any sincerity

about the legislative process in
general.

By not a llowingthe committee to
vote on the community college bill,
and thereby not allowing the bill to
reach the house floor, Stephens is-
hardly encouraging provocative
thought and investigation into the
matter. Committee Chairpersons
should not stop debate on an issue
by unilaterally deciding which bills
can and can not be voted upon.

On the other hand, Blume’s
trade-off a pproach couldn’t exactly
make other legislators on the
committee feel his community
college proposal is sincere.
Especially since the highest bid-
ders are basketball and football.

 

 

Poor review

Editor:

"Plane: to remove or make even by
planing.” This should be the fate of the
Kernel’s Jan. 26 review of ”The
Marriage of Figaro,” an opera staged
Jan. 22 and 23 by UK’s Opera
Workshop.

At the risk of being overly and poorly
punbound, we feel that the article
didn’t quite ”hit the nail on the head.”

The opera was done by multi-talented
students and professionals, yet the
review resembled a piece about a fifth
grade spring concert. Priorities of the
article were misplaced, the readers
were mislead and the idea that the
opera was something new and different
on campus was generally ”missed.”

Lack of common ”opera” con-
ventionalities made this one fun, even
for those ”none of that stuff for me”
thinkers like us.

As the review did finally bring out
some good points, we assume no
hostility here, iust confusion as to why
interest in this area was ”shellacked?”

Greek sing

Editor:

In response to the many letters about
the Chi Omega Greek Sing, i would like
to clarify a few of the points that have
been brought up.

Previous to the Greek sing, each
participating fraternity and sorority
was given a copy of the rules and the
iudges’ sheets, so they would know
what to expect the nightof competition.
Some of the rules questioned were time
limits, accompaniments, choreography

and choice of theme.
These rules in question were stated as

follows: All acts were restricted to 10
minutes. The iudges were informed of
any group exceeding this time limit and
were instructed to take points off if this
happened. There were, no limits to
accompaniments and choreography
was of the groups’ own choosing. The
choice of theme and songs was not
limited, except for dirty or beer

 

JLetters

 

drinking songs, and each group could
do any song or songs of their choice.
The night of the Greek sing there
were five iudges which sat scattered
throughout the audience. After each
group performed, the iudges’ sheets
were picked up and returned to a table
where each total was double checked
using calculators. Each group’s score
was totaled at this time.
The judges were given a copy of the
rules and were briefed before the
preliminaries and finals. The night of
preliminaries each group was informed
of any infractions of the rules so that
they could correct them for finals night.
The night of finals, any infractions of
the rules were taken off in points on the
iudges’ sheets. There were no
disqualifications of any group in the
Greek sing.
lam sorry that the purpose of the Chi
Omega Greek Sing seems to have been
lost. The Greek sing was formed to
bring sororities and fraternities
together for a night of entertainment to
raise money for the United Way of the
Bluegrass. It is notoften that a group of
sororities and fraternities can work
together for a charitable cause. I hope
that the purpose of Greek Sing is now
realized—to help others and to promote
good will.

Editor:

With the destruction of South Hill
imminent, it is necessary that the
support of all students and faculty be
given toward the struggle of the people
of South Hill to keep their homes. In
protest of the connection between Jake
Graves, largest stockholder and
president of Second National Bank and
chairman of the Lexington Center
Corporation (LCC), we urge all
students and faculty to boycott Second
National Bank as a show of support for
the people of South Hill. It profit isthe
motivating factor for the LCC and
Graves, then the loss of profits
resulting from withdrawals from the
bank should hit him where it hurts.

Some quotes spark
inane arguments

To forestall any criticism that this
column is dull and -or irrelevant, l have
chosen to quote the following sentence—
which all by itself has sparked more inane
arguments than have occurred since the
Congress tried to repeal the law of

gravity:

 

 

 

”Equality of rights under the law shall
not be denied or abridged by the United
States or by any State on account of sex.”

Incidentally, after the above proposal
fails I suggest Congress try to get the
states to ratify this one: "Women are
human beings.” The chances that
Americans would fall for it are, I think,
abOut 50-50.

A Los Angeles woman has sued Clairol,
Inc., for $5 million alleging that one of the
cosmetics firm’s hair dyes was respon-
sible for her being hospitalized with severe
back and abdominal pains...and further,
she claims, the stuff turned her urine
black.

Clairol officials have since denied that
their product causes pain in either the
bad or the abdomen.

The newspaper report did not mention
which color the woman was using or what
hair she was dying.

 

There's good news from the Southlands
this week. A five-year, national survey
has revealed that25 per cent (that's one in
every five, you all) of the adults in the
South can not read or write. According to
Dr. Norvell Northcutt of the University of
Texas, chief of the research team, ”They
lack the skills and knowledge to achieve
even moderate success in life.” But cheer
up. Thatiust makes it easier for the rest of
us good ole bws to succeed.

 

And now a word from the sponsor...For
those who may be interested, allow me to
point wt that Hal Holbrook will be

The editors at the Louisville Courier-
Joumal, God bless ’em, have finally an-
swered the question which has bothered so
many of us for so long; that is, Where do
liberal politicians get the energy to con-
tinue their self-righteouswindbagging for
so many years at a stretch? The answer
was given on page two of last'Monday's
paper, which announced: ”Democrats
move on natural gas.” Domestic or
foreign, I wonder?.

 

Oh yes...you missed your chance to bid
for the cigarette lighter that belonged to
the late Charles de Gaulle. The lighter sold
this week at an auction in Langres.
France, for $5,900.

 

And then there is the special room in the
basement of the dormitory at the State
University of New York, in Stony Brook.
The 200 residents of the dorm voted some
time ago to allocate $40from the collective
treasury to encourage some ”Popular
activity." The result was the purchase of a
used water bed, which was installed in a

previously unused room downstairs. The

room and the bed are now available for the
use ofdorm residents and their guests. The
rub, of course, is that the interested
resident—or the interested guest— must
sign up for the room in advance...and
there’s a two-week waiting period. But
once they're in, they don’t have to check
outunlll 24 gloriOus haurs later. And there
is no charge for the room; although every
student does have to bring his or her own
clean linen.

 

Those of us who obligingly witnessed
Jerry Rubin sob-sistering for the late
Abbie Hoffman in Tuesday's Kernel
certainly will not want to miss the in-
terview with Rubin scheduled for
publication in next month’s Hustler
magazine. The Kentucky-born publisher of
thatscrofulws scab rag, Larry Flynt, has
promised that the "noholds-barred" in-
terview will answer the previously
unasked question: "Did Rubin’s tiny
twinkle make him a radical?"

On second thought I’ll read the in-
terview and let you know. There's no
reason for all of us to waste $1.75.

Dormitory residents will soon
have the opportunity to express
their opinions on their living
conditions, alhough they will
probably not speak out in time to
affect next fall’s housing policy.

Student Government (86) is in
the process of selecting dor-
mitory residents to serve on a
task committee which will ad-
dress itself to residence hall
issues including: visitation hours
and co-ed housing, said Glenn
Stith, SG vice president.

Stith said last week the com-
mittee’s purpose is to “bring
together, for the first time, a
committee composed entirely of
students to respond to the needs
and wants of people in the
residence halls.”

The task committee will be an
objective, information-gathering
group indqiendent of SC. He said
the committee will remain
separate from SG to achieve a
more representative viewpoint.

Si

Stith, along with 86 President
Jim Harralson and SG Student
Affairs committee member Mark
Stover and Melinda DeJamette
will select committee members
from nominations submitted by
residence hall presidents.

Stith said the selection process
would not be unfair or stacked
toward any opinion and added,
“We need to maintain objectivity
in selecting members if we want
the committee to achieve
credibility ”

Stith said the 10-12 member
committee will “hopefully” be
formed and in operation by
Friday. He said the interviewing

Threequarters of private gifts
to UK come from corporations or
people who did not attend UK, the
University's chief fund raiser for
UK said Wednesday.

0f $2 million given to UK in
1975, only 25 per cent came from
former UK students.

Robert C. Toll, head of UK’s
Development Office (created 10
years ago to encourage private
gifts to UK), said UK uses three
methods to raise money: direct
mail solicitation, telephone

' solicitation and personal visits.

Direct mail’s goal, Toll said, is
“a gift each year from each
alumnus. Of course, we do not
reach that goal; no university
does. Only about 17 per cent of
alumni contribute each year to
our annual fund."

For telephone solicitation “we
(the Development Office) just
rent an office in a city with many
UK alumni. Local alumni try to
make contact by telephone with
every former UK student in the
city. Our goal is 100 per cent
saturation.“

The emphasis in both direct

     
    
     
     
    
   
   
   
    
     
    
   
   
     
      
    
    
     
     
    
   
    
      
    
   
     
 
   

 

week to get through the 20 or so
committee nominees.

Robert Zumwinkle, vice
president for student affairs,
said, “With each passing week,
the possibility of seriously con-
sidering any change (for next
fall) decreases.”

Zumwinkle said that housing
pamphlets for next fall are about
to be printed. He explained
charges in policy are usually
made before printing in order to
be fair to all incoming students.

Joe Burch, dean of students,
said the demand for co-ed
housing was not as great as might
be expected. As evidence of this,
he said the last dorms to be filled
last fall were the co-ed halls.

Burch said increased visitation
hours would result in higher
supervisory personnel costs.

The residence hall task com—
mittee should be realistic about
these costs when it is in-
vestigating the housing situation,
he said. He urged the group to
discus what changes would be
feas’ble with business and ad-
ministration officials.

Rosemary Pond, associate
dean of students in charge of
residence hall programming,
said the administration is “very
realistic” about housing policy.

She said the University would
be “a little slow" in effecting
policy changes. “There is not a
horrendous demand for co-ed
housing,” Pond added.

The last effort to evaluate co—ed
housing was made by a faculty,
student and administration
committee appointed in June
1973. A co-ed dormitory for

sophomores was opened in '

Septemba', 1975 after the com-
mittee concluded its in-
vestigation.

Corporations, non-alumni ,
contribute most to UK

mail and telephone solicitation is
to get the person reached to give
something—anything at all, Toll
said.

“To be frank," Toll said, “We
tell them a lie. We say the
average alumni gift is $15, so they
won't be bashful about giving. In
fact, the average alumni gift is
$66, but if they were told that,
they would be frightened away."

Large contributions from non-

alumni are the main source of
funds, hesaid. “What do I care if
I get a distinguished professor
who went to UK to give. If we
need money, we call someone we
know will give a lot—a cor-
poration or a philanthropist or
something. They fund specific
things—research projects, for
instance."

What is the average con-
tribution from such a source?

“I have no idea," Toll said.
“I‘m just a blank on that one.5
what the devil-l don’t know
that‘s a relevant question."

Well, what would a typical
corporate contribution be?

“Ten thousand...whatever’s
needed...odd numbers...fifteen
hundred..two thousand."

‘Three Women‘ succeeds as
'exercise in selective empathy‘

“Three Women,” billed as
Chicago’s longest running play,
gambled on emotional response
and was a successful exercise in
selective empathy.

Sponsored by the Student
Center Board and the Office of
Undergraduate Studies, the
popular performance drew
packed houses in Memorial Hall
both Friday andSaturday nights.

Cecil O’Neil, the director, co-
authored “Three Women a”
along with three actresses,
Cynthia Baker Johnson, Sandy
Lipton and Roberta Maguire as
part of Goodman Theatre’s Stage
2 series Q'iginally conceived as

a project to combat the lack of

good, solid roles for women on
the Amerimn stage, the script
was the result of three weeks of
improvisations “for, by and
about women and others.”

The play wasa series of loosely
woven vignettes tracing women
from childhood through maturity
but lacking a more specific
theme. Ranging from bawdy to
poignant, the tone was at times
blatantly feminist; at others, it
only gave dignity to a gender
bound by genes and hormones to
be instinctively maternal.

An early line in the play says,
“who really bothers to learn from
somebody else’s experience?"
The key words are “somebody
else’s.” Through carefully
contrived and timed sequences of
sufficiently personal and
universally shared experiences
of childhood and adolescence, the
audience, or at least the female

components, was infused with a
feeling of kinship necessary to
maintain an empathetic mood
through the multi-level responses
of the later segments.

Working with a minimal set
and props and only the simplest
of light and sound cues, the play
was dependent upon the ac-
tresses’ skill for transitions in
time and space. The carefully
designed “non-costumes” were
very effective in establishing
both unity and separate identity
for each performer.

Probably the weakest area in
the production was the uneven
acting. Cynthia Baker Johnson,
by far the most experienced and
talented of the trio. had a ten-
dency to outshine and out-class
both of her fellow performers.
With tremendous vocal variety
and physical flexibility she was

able to endow each of her
characters with uncanny
believability.

The height of her performance
and indeed the entire evening
was her monologue on poverty,
which, incidentally, was the one
portion of the play not created
originally. Taken from the
Congressional Record, the
testimony of an Appalachian
woman on poverty was so utterly
realistic that it brought tears.

“Three Women” may not have
been particularly great drama
but it was an interesting ex-
periment in the summoning and
purging of emotions.

Slippery Rock will take roses
before Woody Hayes grows up

When Ohio State’s student
newspaper, the Lantern,
published an editorial demanding
football czar Woody (“Coach"
means never having to say
anything) Hayes’ job, the staff
expected flak. .

They got it. And they’re still

. getting it.

“we expected it all,” said
Chuck Ludwig, Lantern sports
editor. “We’ve gotten a lot of
letters from people who were
upset, mostly from alumni and
friends of the University We
know there are a lot of people who
are behind us who aren’t saying
anything.”

The editorial, published two
weeks ago on the heels of the
unexplained dismissal of an Ohio
State player from the football
team, said, “He (Hayes) is
embarrassing because his fans
have made him a god, and he has
begun to believe it. " It brought an
uproar which has yet to die down.

The story made the national
Associated Press wire, and an
excerpt from it is running in the
. “scorecard" portion of this
week‘s Spa'ts Illustrated. The
Cleveland Plain Dealer and the
Columbus Dispatch both
published nebuttals stating that
the Lantern was merely seeking
publicity. And the Ohio State
athletic department has mad no
comment at all, Ludwig said.

“We’ve asked Woody to do a Q
and A (question and answer

interview published verbatim)
with us, but he’s refused."

Ludwig claims the editorial
was not done on a spur of the

moment. Hayes’ behavior at the
Michigan game three years ago,
.when he destroyed a set of yar-
dage markers while protesting a
decision by a referee, and the

infamous Rose Bowl incident of
three years ago when he smashed
a photographer in the face with
his own camera, served as
background reasoning. This
year’s Rose Bowl disappearing
act was the match to the fuse.

“We can’t say that the Rose
Bowl caused us to do it. It was
sort of a climax to it,” said
Ludwig.

The editorial was approved by
the Lantern’s editorial board, of
which Ludwig is a member An
editorial page writer suggested
the idea, and the board discussed
it. “It was not a tough decision at
all,” said Ludwig. “We
deliberated about two seconds."

Allen Ross, another member of
the editorial board, said “One of
the big problems was caused by
this ongoing lack of com-
munica tion. ”

No Answer

Ross said the paper felt in-
sulted that a man paid with funds
made available by the public did
not feel he had to answer to
anybody. Ross said the paper was
“further insulted when the
president-(Harold Enarson, Ohio
State president) feels he is not
answerable. "

The Lantern staff was, in fact,
so insulted that they wrote a
follow-up editorial calling for
Enarson to force Hayes to make
some sort ' of statement. Fat
chance.

“We have yet to get any
comment," Ross said. “But

Hayes has said things to other
papers.

“When people feel they don’t
have to answer to anyone, it’s
time to take a hard look at the
situation. There’s got to be
somebody he (Hayes) has to
answer to."

The follow-up editorial was
written along the lines of “con-
cepts of alienation.” It pointed
out contradictions made in public
by. President Ford, Enarson and
Woody.

Too Obnoxious

It said, in part, ”When the
University asks us to conserve
energy and then lights are left on
in some buildings all night, we
don't understand. When a head
football coach seeks publicity all
season and then one month later,
refuses to talk with reporters, we
are amazed.

“Come on Jerry, Harry and
Woody. You owe us answers, and
we are waiting."

Well, the Lantern staff can wait
until the cows come home or
Slippery Rock wins the Rose
Bowl, whichever somes first.
became nothing is going to
happen.

Woody Hayes will always be
too humble in victory and ob-
noxious in defeat. He will con-
tinue to celebrate losses by
slipping out back doors, hiding
out in team buses and melting
into the woodwork.

He won’t speak about anything
important until he's into
retirement and writing his
memoirs, which will be the one
time when nobody will really
want to hear what Woody Hayes
has to say.

 

Dick Gabriel is the Kernel sports
editor and his column appears
every other week.
