THE KENTUCKY

Thursday Afternoon, Nov. 2, 1967

By Professors

Departments within the Uni- , "

versity's colleges were mildly crit-
icized Wednesday for not plan-
ning and revamping courses to
fit in with the general studies
academic program.

The program, one offour com-
ponents leading to a bacccalaure-
ate degree, was initiated two
years ago as part of the over-
all academic plan. The plan puts
all freshmen and sophomores in
the college of Arts and Sciences
and directs them to take year-
long course sequences from eight
different areas.

The criticism, voiced during
the faculty club's Foci discus-
sion, was raised by Dr. Robert
Pranger. assistant professor of
political science. Dr. Pranger
said, “There has not been much
departmental activity into reor-
ganization for the general studies
program. "

‘Department Responsibility'

Dr. Lewis Cochran, oneofthe
key figures behind the develop-
ment of the academic program,
agreed with Dr. Pranger's criti-
cism and noted that the respon-
sibility for development of the
general studies program lies with
the departments.

Other criticism of the general
studies program was offered by
Dr. Michael Adelstein, assistant
professor of English. Dr. Adel-
stein said the idea. of course
sequences traps students and
commits them to continue in one
field of study for one year, even
though they may become disen-
chanted with the study after one
semester.

Dr. Cochran, recently ap-
pointed dean of the Graduate
School and vice president in
charge of research, countered the
criticism saying. "There was a
feeling—right or wrong—that
there is more merit in depth
than in breadth.”

Timid Protester Plans

A ‘Demonstration’ Here

By KERRY POWELL

Somebody says there‘s going to be a demonstration on campus

today.

Who says? That‘s a secret.

Where will it be? Another
mystery.

It all started Wednesday with
the distribution of green flyers
addressed to ”Hell Raisers."The
hand-out promised a ”torchlight
demonstration” at Haggin field
tonight and implored "dissatis-
fied" students to attend.

'An accompanying leaflet,
meant for Complex Tower A res-
idents, hinted merrily of an ap—
proaching “riot." The authors
explained they were provoked be-
cause the administration had re—
jected "our proposal for allow-
ing women in your rooms."

It was signed, in typescript,
"Your Representatives." A mem-
ber of the Complex Covemrnent,
however, aVOWed it is sponsor-
ing no riot-not even a modest
protest.

Crouch Speaks
Dick Crouch, Arts and Sci-

ences sophomore, agreed to act

‘Nunn Has Pulled Away’

 

as mouthpiece for the nameless
organizer. But he was quick to
insist he has no part in the
scheme.

A friend—one of the chief
protest planners-says the dem-
onstration will not be at Haggin
field after all, Crouch revealed.
It will be at the Library. And
there won't be any torches either.

'What there will be, according
to Crouch, is a "funeral for'all
UK students ideas that have died
from sufiocation by the regressive
administration of this Univer-
sity." The service will c0me com—
plete with spontaneous eulogies,
he added.

But who's behind it? Crouch
won't say. Some believe it's a
self—styled South Campus Coor-
dinating Committee. Others say
The Rogue, an unofficial Com-
plex newsletter. Some say the two
arethe same.

Anyway there‘s going to be a
demonstration today. Some-
where. Maybe.

W '1 -‘ Protests Spread;

Iowans Arrested

UPI-CPS Dispatches

‘ IOWA CITY—More than 100 University of Iowa students and
faculty members were arrested Wednesday in the course of a sit-in

to stop Marine recruiting.

The demonstration, organized
by Students for a Democratic
Society and the Iowa City Draft
Resistance Union, blocked the
entrance to the Iowa Memorial
Union where recruiting was be—
ing carried on for the Marine
Corps. Occasional violence broke
out during the morning as stu-
dents and counter-demonstrators
from off campus attacked the sit-
in line. Some students going to
interviews charged the human
blockade and others crawled over
it, stepping on demonstrators in
the line.

A state senator became in-
volved in the incident and was
charged with disturbing the peace
after being arrested by a student
on a citizen's arrest.

Wayne State

In Detroit, from 25 to 50 stu-
dents at Wayne State University
tried to storm a building where
a Marine Corps recruiter was in-
terviewing potential enlistees.

The demonstrators stood in
front of the building for nearly
an hour shouting antiwar slo—
gans. A campus policeman and
others in, the building preyented
them from getting inside.

Several police cars arrived and
the scuffle ended.

The group then marched to
the president's office where they
demanded to see him.

Indiana University students
circulated a petition on the cam-
pus Wednesday apologizing to
Secretary of State Dean Rusk
for “the great discourtcsy" shown
by ”small vocal minority" of
students when he spoke there
Tuesday.

"We love IU and we're afraid
people are getting the wrongidea
that it is full of bearded stu-
dents," said Jayne Crote, presi-
dent of the IU Union Board
and an organizer of the peti-
tion. "They are just a small
vocal minority. "

"Most of us are very upset
and embarrassed," Miss Grote
said.

Michigan
In Ann Arbor about 200 stu-
dents and 25 faculty members
began a sit-in in the University
of Michigan administration
building to protest a military
project for Thailand.

The demon st ration was staged
by the Voice Political Party, a
campus branch of the Students
for a Democratic Society.

In Philadelphia about 100 stu-
dents held a sit-in in the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania placement
office, protesting recruiters from
Dow Chemical Company andthe
CIA.

About 10 students forcedtheir
way into the office where the
Dow recruiter was and held a
sit-in. The recruiter continued
to interview applicants. After
about an hour he was asked

to leave by the dean of men
and did so.

When he left the demonstra-
tors turned their attention to
the CIA recruiter, who had kept
his door locked. Some ofthedem-
onstrators finally got in when
an applicant left. However,
another demonstrator had found
a switch box and shut off the
lights in the two offices, so the
recruiter left with the assistance
of some campus guards.

Happy: Ward ‘LosingIt All Over The State’

By DARRELL CHRISTIAN

Former Cov. A. B. (Happy)Chandler
said Wednesday the tide of the current
gubematorial campaign has shifted to Re-
publican nominee Louie B. Nunn.

”Mr. Nunn has pulled away in the
last two or three weeks," Mr. Chandler
said. ”As I've observed the thing, peo-
ple who have been Democrats all their
lives are going to vote for Judge Nunn.

Mr. Chandler, who ran second in last
May's primary to Democratic gubema-

'torial candidate Henry Ward, said the for-

mer highway commissioner ”is desperate
now. He's losing all the polls. He lost
at Centre College, Western Kentucky Uni-
versity, Murray, Sue Bennett and in Wood—
ford County.

"People, when they see him, are find—
ing out he's dictatorial, arrogant and not
well educated. "

Mr. Ward‘s desperation, he said, is
evident in his charges that Mr. Nunn has
offered the University presidency in ex-
change for political support. Democratic
headquarters said the alleged offer was
made to Mr. Chandler, but the former
governor said, ”No word has been said
to me about the UK Presidency by Judge
Nunn or any of his associates."

Mr. Chandler endorsed Mr. Nunn two
weeks ago, publicly switching his party

 

allegience for the first time. Since then he
has traveled around the state speaking for
NtTnn and urging his followers to ”put
these people out," meaning the present
Democratic administration.

”The overwhelming majority of peo-
ple who supported me are now given to
Judge Nunn," he said. ”Mr. Ward is
losing it all over the state. Some of the
people in his own campaign might quit
him toward the end. A lot of state em-
ployes are coming to see me now."

He said he doesn't believe Jefferson
County Judge Marlow Cook, mnner-up
to Nunn in the COP primary, would
have had a better chance against the
Democratic regime.

'"The religious issue in Kentucky is

not dead. I wish it were," Mr. Chandler
said, referring to Judge Cook's Catholic
religion.

He conceded, however, that Mr. Nunn
"will be hurt some" by the COP's first
bitter primary in 20 years. But, he added,
Mr. Ward will be hurt just as much by
the growing tide against the Democratic
party.

This is one reason, he saidfwhy
Democrats apparently have chosen to ig-
nore the issues of Vietnam and the John-
son administration although Mr. Nunn
makes frequent reference to them.

Mr. Chandler also accused Mr. Ward
of dodging other meaningful campaign
issues—such as Maine Chance Farm and
UK—U of L sisterhood—by saying ”Idon't
know all the facts."

"He's a complete stranger to those
things," Mr. Chandler said. ”He's not
a boy anymore; he's nearly 60years old.
And you have to have something in your
past experience to know about these
things, and he hasn‘t had those exper-
iences."

Mr. Ward did not enter college fol-
lowing his graduation in 1928 from Pa-
ducah Tilghman High School.

”He (Ward) is not qualified (to be
governor) by his education, training and
experience," Mr. Chandler said, adding

that Mr. Ward's record as commissioner
of conservation and highway commis—
sioner wasn't as clean as he claims.

”If he were that honest, he wouldn't
have to say so," Mr. Chandler said. ”I
like to quote Shakespeare: ‘Methink he
doth protest too much.'" He said Mr.
Ward has admitted to a $10 million waste
during his six years as highway com-
missioner.

He said Mr. Ward is tied to the
present administration, which, he said,
has increased taxes ”three or four times

 

Campaign ’67

 

the last eight years," put Kentucky in
debt $1.5 billion and increased the state
payroll 48 percent in the last eight years.

My forecast at the moment is that
the race isn't close," Mr. Chandler con—
cluded. ”The total vote in the primary
was low. And it was not only because
of apathy, but also because of people
who thought he (Ward) would win the
primary and waited until the general
election to vote against him."

A ntique Fire Engine
Is Campus Tradition

By CAROLYN DUNNAVAN

All sorts of strange vehicles
can be found on a university
Take UK. There are

campus.
souped-up hot rods, multi-
colored Volkswagons, psyche-

delic painted bicycles and one
bright red antique fire truck.

Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity is
the owner of the 1931 Seagraves
Pumper. The truck is a mechan-
ical monster. It has 18 spark
plugs. Its huge engine feeds the
power to a chain drive, just like
a bicycle. It's never any trouble
to get started: just give the crank
a couple of turns and the engine
starts chugging.

The fire truck has a continual
craving for special food-gas. It
consumes about one gallon ofgas
for every mile it travels.

Owning a fire tmck is a tradi-
tion among Pike chapters. In
Kentucky, four out of the five
Pike chapters own firetrucks. A
related custom is owning a Dal-
matian, traditionally the "fire
station" dog. The chapter here
is no exception. Whenever broth-

' ers take the truck for a ride,

Pike IV, their Dalmatian, can
be seen running along behind.

What can you do with a fire-
truck? Jim Knight, a Pike frater-
nity member who loves to talk
about the truck, says it has many
uses. The Pikes ride around cam-

Controversy involving former
anthropology professor Neil Ed-
dington led Dr. William K. Pluck-
nett Tuesday to urge the local
chapter of the American Associa-
tion of University Professors to
examine the relationship of its
Committee ”A" and the Presi-
dent's Committee on Tenure and
Privilege.

Dr. Plucknett was the chair—
man of Committee ”,"A the
AAUP subgroup on faculty aca-
demic freedom, during the Ed-
dington controversy last year.

”Ill feelings among AAUP
members resulted from questions
as to how far Committee “A"
should have gone in the case,"
Dr. Plucknett said in a review of
the committee's work for the fall
meeting of AAUP.

Prof. Eddington's case came
to light last November when an
investigation of his Anthropolo-
gy 100 class was begun by the
department. Students com-
plained about the nature of the
course taught by the assistant
professor, who at mid-term was
failing 65 percent of his class.

The AnthropologqI Depart-
ment subsequently said Prof. E? -
dington's contract would not be
renewed at the end of the aca-
demic year.

Prof. Eddington went to the
AAUP claiming his academic free-
dom had been violated. Dr.
Plucknett said that Committee
”A" spent more than 30 hours
interviewing people in the case.

It was the unanimousopinion
of the four-member committee

that “there was reason to believe
in three or four instances that
Neil Eddington's academic free—
dom may have been violated,"
Dr. Plucknett said. Prof. Edding-
ton was dismissed from his duties,
nevertheless.

In further action, Dr. Pluck-
nett said that, this summer, Corn-
mittee “A" and Committee ”",S
dealing with student academic
freedom, obtained a reversal of a
University decision in the case
of a part-time University medical
student who was dismissed for
misuse of University supplies.

The student was arrested in
connection with the making and
use of mescaline, a hallucina-
tory drug. Charges in the case
were dismissed by police, Dr.
Plucknett said.

Dr. Plucknett said that the
student, in the last semester of
his senior year, was reinstated
and graduated this summer.

 No Incident Reporgt =
No Incident?

An incident report has not been
filed, therfore there must have
been no incident.

This Statement might have been
made in Orwell’s 1984. It would
have been in context with that
author’s description of a big-
brother-is-watching world.

But this no-incident because no-
report statement was made in 1967,
at the University, by a campus
official.

With statements like this one
being made by University officials,
perhaps the eerie world of 1984 is
upon us here and now, at least
University police force-wise.

There was an incident. One
sufficient to make University stu—
dents react angrily. An incident
of sufficient breadth to make Uni-
versity students run breathless into
our newspaper offices. Outraged.

Students claim they were bad-
gered by the badged minons of the

Letters To The Editor

 

University police force. The gen-
darmes say they just asked ques-
tions. One sided dialogue ensued.
Conflicting statements appeared in
the news story.

Who to believe?

The students.

And the source of the problem
is deeper than the generation gap
between students and cops on the
beat.

It is the intelligence quotient
gap.

Cops on the beat are unable
to answer questions, certainly those
posed by University students. Cops
on the beat are ill advised to enter
into dialogue with University stu-
dents if they are unwilling or un-
able to answer student questions
in rebuttal.

Ask not, if unwilling or unable
to answer questions, should be
the working maxim of the Uni-
versity police force.

Girls in Dorms,U.S.Socialistnstructor’s Absence, The Rules

To The Editor Of The Kernel:

On Tuesday October 31, President
John W. Oswald rejected a proposal from
the Tower A Government which would
have allowed girls to be present in the
dorm rooms of the Tower on Friday
and Saturday nights from 8:00 pm. to
1:00 a.m. ‘ _

This proposal was not a haphazard
one, but one which was diligently worked
out and considered by the members of
the Tower A Government to be an asset
to the ”liberalness" of this institution.
If this proposal would have been passed,
the University would have joined the
ranks of such universities as Ohio State,
Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Virginia and the
Ivy League which have all adopted simic
lar proposals.

If the Tower A proposal would have
been passed, then it would have become
a policy of the University, and thus
it would have become available for adop-
tion by other dormitories. The proposal
should not, however, be considered radi—
cal. It only grants the residents of Tower
A both the rights and the privileges that
are due to them.

Considering the fact that the univer-
sity has repealed the in loco parentis
clause and also considering that we lease
our rooms from the university, the dor-
mitories have become, in actuality. stu-
dent hotels.

The student, because he is a pay-
ing tenant, should have the right to do
anything he wants to in his room, as
long as he does not damage any of the
University's property and as long as he
does not disturb his neighbors. By re-
jecting the Tower A proposal. President
Oswald has not only committed both an
unjust and an unlawful act but he has
also repudiated the University‘s new pol—
icy concerning in loco parcntis.

By rejecting the Tower A proposal,
President Oswald has also rejected the
liberal trends of this University. It would
seem from what has happened, that the

 

influence of such groups as The Women's
Tempereuce Union. The Chastity Club,
The Society for the Preservation of Old
Maids and the National Association for

the Advancement of Victorian Morality
are more important to this University
than the rights of students.

It is for this reason that I am sug-
gesting to the judges of the homecom-
ing displays that the Administration be
awarded first prize for its magnificent
adaptation of the theme "Mickey Mouse
Club.” Perhaps, the replacement of
Mickey Mouse with Happy Chandler
would not be such a drastic idea after
all.

To The Editor Of The Kernel:

How many students realize that they
as well as their parents, in many cases,
are being cheated when an instructor
is absent from class? Some students cheer
when this happens while a few realize
the seriousness of it.

I consider these absences in violation
of a simple contract between the Uni—
versity of Kentucky and myself.

Below are the requirements for a valid
contract and how these apply to this
situation:

1. Offer—The University offers me the

opportunity for a higher education.

2. Acceptance—I accept this offer and
enroll.

3. Consideration-l pay the required
tuition.

4. Capacity of parties—The University
and I both have the legal capacity
to enter into a contract.

5. Legality of object— Education is cer—
tainly a legal object.

lthink it's time students became more
concerned with this situation. After all,
if we get cheated out of money else—
where we fight, why not now!

To The Editor Of The Kcrncl:

Perhaps I am wrong, but it seems to
me that the U.S. government has moved
this nation toward a high state of soc—
ialism, which is just around the corner
from communism. Some socialism may be
good for the people, but where does it
end." If the U.S. keeps developing toward
socialism at the rate it has since 1960,
then ”big brother" may be watching you
by 1984, just as the book entitled 1984
suggests.

Since socialism provides benefits for
the American people, the government of
the U.S. has more to say about what
they can or cannot do. Are the services
and benefits of socialism worth the sacri-
fice of rights and privileges? The Ameri-
can people seem to think they are.

It surprised me, when a proposal this
year for 'Wre tapping’ ' was brought be:

fore our Congress to be voted on. If wire
tapping became part of our law, it would
be permissable to use it against sus-
pected American citizens for various acts
they did which would make them sus-
picious characters. Hasn't every citizen
either said or done something at one time
or another which would make him a sus-
picious person? Therefore, every U.S. ci—
tizen would be a potential suspect and,
if passed, wire tapping or "big brother's"
ear would have its beginning.

Fortunately, the proposal for wire tap—
ping did not pass the preliminary steps
for it to become part of our law. But
how could some of our Congressmen
even consider such a proposal? Wire tap-
ping is an invasion of privacy which is
part of the US. constitution. Is this type
of thinking part of American socialism?
I thought this country was based upon
capitalistic ideas, not socialistic or c0m-
munistic ones.

The U.S. is spending billions of dol-
lars and sacrificing young American lives
in Vietnam to keep communism from
spreading in the world. But yet this nation
itself is apparently moving in the direc-
tion of communism. Are we fighting
against communism or for it?

To The Editor Of The Kernel:

I've read the Shakespearean quote
and the quote from Proverbs and I en-
joyed them very much. When I wrote
”The Rules" and the reply to Miss
Mueller, 1 was stating what seems to be
wrong with the social atmosphere on
campus. As the Bible says:

”He whopursuesjusticeand kindness"

will find life and honor.”

Proverbs XXI, 21
I don‘t wish to argue because:
“The start of a strife is like the
opening of a dam,
therefore check a quarrel before
it begins!"
Proverbs XVII, 14
Mr. Nash, let's not fight because:
"Quarrel not with a man ,
without a cause,
with one who has done you no harm."
Proverbs II. 30
Yes, wisdom grows with age but aware-
ness of. the truth comes when a man
opens his eyes and sees.

So,

Steven Batter-man

Campaign ’67:
EDITORS NOTE: Following is
the first installment of a two-
pari series on Fayette County

legislative candidates. Tomor-

row's report will focus on Demo-
cratic hopefuls.

The five Fayette County
Republicans mnning for state of-
fices are somewhat divided over
a possible UK- speaker ban that
both the main gubernatorial can-
didates have advocated.

Rep. Don Ball of the 55th
District, the only Republican in-
cumbent in the current race, and
Craddy Johnson, a contender in
the 54th District, both expressed
opposition to a speaker ban.

“1 think that by the time a
person gets to college,” Mr.John-

son- said, “exposure does him
more good than harm.n

Similarly, Rep. Ball said, “I
feel that a college student should
be able to listen to any speaker."

Robert D. Flynn, senatorial
candidate in the 13th District,
and Robert Wooley of the 56th
District, however, both favor a
ban to some degree.

”I would bar any irresponsible
speaker who speaks of violence
or overthrow of the government,"
Mr. Wooley said. He included in
these categories ”people like H.
Rap Brown (Negro Black Power
militant) or known Commun-
ists."

Mr. Flynn said he feels any—
one should have freedom of
speech at universities “except
when it’s treason or (involves)
inciting riots."

Mr. Wooley and Mr. Flynn
both favor local control in de-
ciding what speakers should be
banned. Control, they say, might
be exercised by the University
administration and’ possibly a
body of "responsible" students.

Johnnie Jackson, the fifth Re- ‘

publican candidate, running in
the 53rd District, declined to
make impromptu comment on
any election topic.

He claimed he has been “too
busy" campaigning for office to
sit down and study issues. But
he quickly added that he would
carefully study all relevant issues
if his campaign succeeds.

The Maine Chance contro-
versy is another issue that has
divided the candidates who ex-
pressed an opinion on the matter.
