this.

Bill
The program centered around
National Vietnam Week NVW
activities (April 13-1but the
high point of the evening came
when it was announced from

that
sachusetts has made law a bill
stating that its citizens cannot
fight in any war which has not
been formally declared a war by
the Congress".
This information was met with
stunned silence and then cheers
and cries of "Right on" and a
delighted "ALL RIGHT!"
It was stated that the new
law, which will go into effect in
90 days, cannot affect men already serving in Vietnam nor
will it have immediate effect on
those to be called up soon.
"Massachusetts would have to
secede from the union," someone said.
However, the attorney general
plans to go before the Supreme
Court to test the legality of the
bill. This is its purpose.

running for a Student
Government office on the Students For Action And Responsibility (SAR) ticket, asked for
SMC endorsement. A proposal
was made, the matter was debated and voted down.
SMC seemed to be almost 100
percent for SAR, but after
cautious appraisal decided their
endorsement of any ticket would
be damaging to themselves and
to the ticket.
It was stated that "we are defeating this proposal for practical and not idealogical reasons".
A request was made that the
above information be repeated
if there was a Kcrnal reporter in
the room because "they often
screw this kind of stuff up and
we'd like to be sure they get it
straight".
One student remarked that
"we're going to go around to
the Greek houses and the independents for support for our
Teach-I- n
and if we support SAR
it might mean the wouldn't support us.
This evoked the following response, "If we aren't endorsing
because we're playing up to the
Greeks, then we're playing up
to the Greeks."

Student Government presidential candidates Steve Bright

in a debate Monday night at

serve students if elected.
The candidates, and their

Bright and running

Jennings and Roger Valentine

Jennings said he did not want
Student Government to become

Focus Plans Talks
By UK Professors
By DON

EGERJR.

Kernel Staff Writer
A series of lectures ranging from witchcraft to moon dust will be
given by four UK professors April 6 and 7.
"Focus on the Future" is the theme of the talks to be presented
by the 1970 Focus Committee.
Focus chairman Frank McCartney, Arts and Sciences junior,
termed this year's program as a "test of student opinion on topics
which are controversial in nature. As in the past, the purpose of
Focus 1970 is to bring the students together in a rich intellectual
experience toward the real problems of the world," said McCartney.
The lectures will begin at 7:30 p.m. each night in the SC
Theater. There will be no admission charge and a reception will
follow the night's program in the President's Room of the Student
Center.
Speaker Program
Monday, April 6, Dr. Gene Mason, Political Science, will speak
on "Politics of the Future."
Also representing the Political Science Department Monday night
is Dr. Dean Jaros. His topic is "Focus on the Environment."

THE

Album Stresses Love

IIAZLL COLOSIMO
Kernel Stall Writer
Open two windows wide and
then you're ready to greet a
beautiful
new
"morning" a
word, a beautiful album.
"Morning" is the surprising
combination of newcomer Joe
brooks a talented
with the unique skill to
play 25 instruments (not all at
the same time) and the stiletto
voice of Hosko famed on the
"Now" radio show.
Surprising? Yes, surprising because these two should come on
like Gangbustcrs and completely
ruin a beautiful thing like love.
The album doesn't. It makes
love "innocent, uncorrupt and
sometimes so painful that you
can hardly stand it."
"Morning" arises with the appropriate opening cut, "Morning," where one finds a happy
joyful world, fresh and new.
"Call mc as I walk into the
sunshine," the wanderer recites
as he passes through streets
tripping over stones. "I'm not
thinking too clearly" reliving
summer's memories.
This wanderer has his philo- singer-compos-

is Indian Summer,
time of the year. Something is
dying and then everything is
dying."
Guitar-pickin- g
brooks blends
in pauselcssly with "blue balloon" as he sings a remembrance
of love; "time is a one-tim- e
thing, a sometime thing and not
much to rely on." All Brooks offers is hope for those seeking
love: give love a try, don't just
toss your heart around; it's not
too late to find out, before the
sand has run out of the hourglass."
"Indian Summer Part 2" says
something has ended although
something is beginning. But the
ending is all too real. The
wanderer, lonely now, says
"maybe now I've paid my
share," then decides that tomorrow's secret promises are
coming so "I'll just pick up my
heart and go home."
"A Different Side To Morning
Rain" ends our journey through
the many faces of a love. The
wanderer reveals he can't stay
with his girl and "I don't care
who is to blame" he must go
and find a different side to the
morning rain.
She is to find out where she's
been for he tells her "the love
you heard was near hallucinations in your ear." So "in the
darkness of their innocence"
they have to lead the way the
way to a different side of love.
Music isn't the thing on this
album. It helps, but it is the
words and the. thoughts and the
visions which make it such a
good "morning."

If you're about to get your degree, it's time to
ask yourself some penetrating questions the
kind of questions many people never really

and live life to the fullest or get
down and be miserable.
Into this paradise walks a
girl from the Hay
Country who now has lost contact with reality since "absurd
by West Coast
propositions
musicians put her uptight."
The wanderer knew her
"when she faced reality, now
it's too late." She "makes it
through April, but gets hung up
real bad in May" since she gave
her love so easily. "You'd never
know when she "cared," but she
"cared far too much; now no
one gets close enough to touch."
"Special Kind of Morning" is
a special kind of cut, a musical
blending of guitar and flute
which suits the happiest of love
thoughts. There seem to lc new
beginnings for all the romances
that went astray, for, Rosko says,
"and if you've been shot down,
why, it will work out, anyday
now."
For those who are still trying
to tind a special someone, Hosko
advises "latch onto someone
happy, who will spin you
dreams of gold, and softly stop
the twilight, so that you wont
ever grow old."

McCartney indicated that if the event is a success, the lectures
presented by Focus and the monthly lectures of the forum will
operate under a combined system.
He said that although much of the planning will depend on

A brief question and answer period will follow each of the lectures.
In its third year of organizing specific lectures, Focus hopes

Past Lectures
For the past two years Focus has brought such notables to
campus as William Kunstler, defense attorney for the Chicago
Seven. But the death of Dr. Martin Luther King prevented Cassius
Clay and Robert F. Kennedy from attending Focus in its first year
of existence.
Focus 1970 is being administered by the Student Activities
Board, recently merged with the Student Center Board. McCartney
attributed last year's financial failure to the lack of publicity and
the necessity to charge admission to pay the

I recall with some distress the events
of last spring, in which 2,000 protested
the misuse of university authority in the
needless suspension of four students arrested on drug charges.

of a foreign student. What is involved
here is not the sale of grass, but, allegedly, a senseless and perhaps crippling crime
of violence.
And nothing is done. I would condemn
the prejudgment of these students, perhaps the university is trying to be enlightened. I wish primarily to point out

On Saturday, Febniary 27, two of Kentucky's finest had a little argument with
one of UK's Iranian students and proceeded to beat him quite severely. This
beating warranted the student to be placed

"You cannot graduate, receive grades

overdue books issued by the Margaret

measures to insure the return of overdue
books and the method used on this campus is the withliolding of grades, transcripts, or even a person's diploma until
compensation has been made for the loss
either in the form of a returned lxok or
the paying of a bill. The bill has three
components: the fine, the price of the
book, and the $3.00 processing fee. If
a person has lost materials owned by the

to pay the penalties. But, should a person

he has worked so hard to receive, his
grades and his diploma. He has no choice
or voice in the matter. The book, after
having been returned to the library, could
have been misplaced, the card which states
who checked the book out could have
been lost along with a number of other
possibilities which are ignored or not even
considered by the library.

This problem could be eliminated by
the issuance of receipts by the library
to the person returning the book which
would state explictly that the book is
no longer in the hands of the student
but has been returned to the library.

Homosexuals 'Oppressed'

Universities Called Biassed And Ignorant
-

WASHINGTON (CPS)
Universities
do more to aggravate the problems of
homosexuals in contemporary American
society than to alleviate them, according
to Dr. Franklin Kamcny, author of "The
Same Sex" and founder and president
of the Mattachine Society of Washington.
A nation
expert on homosexuality, Dr. Kameny was interviewed
by CPS to obtain some perspective on
the upsurge of organized homosexual activity on U.S. college campuses. Stanford,
San Jose State, Cornell and the University of Minnesota are among schools where
homosexuals have formed clubs within
the past year.
Colleges and universities discriminate
against homosexuals in the areas of counseling, curriculum and social activity, he
said.
Counseling provided homosexuals is
"abysmally poor," according to Dr. Kameny, because counselors tend to approach

homosexuality as a form of deviant behavior, attacking "not the problems, but
the state." Instead of encouraging the
homosexual to accept his nature, he said,
counselors react as though homosexuality
were something bad that needs change.
College curriculums, he said, are conspicuously absent of courses on homosexuality. New York University offered
the first course on homosexuality last fall,
Dr. Kameny said, and if more schools
would offer such courses, homosexuals
would benefit Just as Blacks have benefitted from the inclusion of courses on
n
history and culture in various
academic programs.
Academic emphasis on homosexuality,
he said, could both help to eliminate
prejudice and ignorance regarding homosexuals and make homosexuals open, rather than furtive and secretive about themselves.
Concerning social activities, Dr. Kam

eny said, administrations and student
governments should make offices and ballrooms just as available to student homosexual groups as to other campus organizations. At Columbia, he said, the authorities permitted the staging ofa"mixcr
dance" into which both homosexuals and
heterosexuals were admitted.
'Mixer Dances'
If "mixer dances" were held at numerous schools, he said, the cause of integrating the homosexual into society would
be aided.
According to Dr. Kameny, student
homosexual organizations are "very much
needed" on campuses because they can
serve as a power base from which to protest violations of the civil liberties of homosexuals, educate the university and
community
citizenry,
organize social
events and work toward correcting the
deficiencies in schools' treatment of

Postal Strike Workers
WASHINGTON (CPS)-T- he
Student Mobilization Committee to
End the War in Vietnam has announced it supports the strike of
the postal workers "for better wages in the face of spiraling inflation caused by the war in Southeast Asia," and it "will help these
workers in any way it can."
Alter giving themselves a 41 percent increase in salaries in
19G9 members of Congress "are now howling when the postal
workers strike to provide a decent standard of living for themselves and their families," according to Carol Lipman, SMC Executive Secretary. In New York City, for example, 7 percent of
the postal workers are forced to take welfare to support their
families, she said.
"The Student Mobilization Committee demands that our government use the billions of dollars it spends for war in Southeast Asia
to meet the needs of the working people in this country and right
now that means the postal workers," she said.
The spokesman said he knew of only one SDS member who
was employed by a post office.

Also, he said, the existence of such
groups can help persuade "closet homosexuals" to come out in the open.
He said there are currently two types
of homosexual organizations: groups like
the Gay Liberation Front which advocate
demonstrations and radical action as a
means to achieve rights for homosexuals
and groups like the Student Homophile
League which rely on a strictly educational approach.
Dr. Kameny said the hippie movement has undoubtedly helped homosexuals by creating an atmosphere of sexual
permissiveness in this country.
He said oppression of homosexuals
isn't unique to the U.S.; Russia's criminal laws are very discriminatory toward
them also. Homosexuals here, however,
have been subject to the
fetish," in Dr.
Kameny's opinion. It derives from a strong
puritan tradition, he said.
