300,000 vote victory predicted

Apologizing for being 90 minutes
late, Republican vice-presidential
nominee Sen. Robert Dole spoke
briefly yesterday afternoon to about
300 enthusastic students on the
Student Center patio.

Dole, arriving with his suit coat
folded under one arm, made his way
through the crowd shaking hands.
Several students in the throng
waved pro—Ford posters.

Kay Rubin, president of UK
College Republicans, said she was
notified late Sunday night of Dole's
impending campus visit. She said
she was “really impressed,"
however, with the student turn-out.
“I knew we had the support on
campus," Rubin said.

Rubin said there were originally
“a couple thousand" students at the
Student Center, but since Dole was
late, many left to go to classes.

In a brief interview, Dole said UK

is the first campus he has included
on his campaign tour. He said he is
“just getting into" campus ap-
pearances, and added, “I wouldn’t
try to hold one during a football
game."

Dole said, “According to the polls,
President Ford is popular with
young people." He said this is
because “people in their late teens
and early twenties are more
inquiring“ and “Ford has a positive
stand and sticks with it. He knows
what he stands for."

According to one of Dole's cam-
paign aides, the senator flew to Salt
Lake City and then to San Francisco
yesterday after leaving Lexington.
Asked how he liked the heavy
campaign schedule, Dole said it‘s
“not bad" adding that “motel time“
is tiring and that he likes to “stay
busy" while campaigning.

The senator‘s wife, Mrs. Elizabeth
Dole, said she is accompanying her
husband on the tour to determine
whatkind of campaigning is needed.

She said she will continue to ac-
company Dole but will also do
separate campaigning, especially in
larger cities. Mrs. Dole cited Dallas
as an example where she and her
husband "broke it up," and cam
paigned independently of each
other.

Mrs. Dole took a leave of absence
from her post on the Federal trade
Com iission to help Sen. Dole
campaign.

Before leaving the campus, Dole
stopped at the Kappa Sigma
fraternity house on Fraternity Row.
He is a Kappa Sigma alumnus of the
University of Kansas.

According to Kappa Sigma
member Ric Dupreas, the fraternity
presented Dole with a fifth of Rebel
Yell. Thelabel was custom—made by
the Rebel Yell distillery to com-
memorate the fraternity's 75th
anniversary last year.

Dole’s Lexington campaign
yesterday also included a “non-
partisan” speech and a question and

Pass-fail rule adopted

By MIKE MEUSER
Assistant Managing Editor

The University Senate approved a
measure Monday which will prevent
instructors from being notified of the
fact that students are enrolled in
their classes under the pass-fail
option.

Under the new ruling, instructors
will submit students” regular grades
to the Registrar's Office, which will
record them into the pass-fail grad-
ing track for record-keeping pur-
poses. The ruling does not apply to
classes offered only on a pass-fail
basis, however.

In addition to the change in
grading procedure, the ruling ex-
tends the date after which a student
may not change to or from a
pass-fail option. Previously, the
deadline was the same as the last
day for adding a class. Under the
new measure, the date is the same
as the last day to drop a class
without a grade.

The measure was debated by
several senators, all of whom were
concerned about the implications of
the ruling. Dr. Ray Longyear, a
professor of music, said the measure
implied that “faculty members can-
not be trusted.“

Marion Wade, Arts & Sciences
Senator, refuted Longyear‘s argu-
ment and said the amendment would
“remove a double-standard sys-
tem". He stated, “Both faculty
members and students use the

system against each other. It would
be better to have a blind system.”
The new ruling will be implement-
ed in the spring semester, 1977.
Earlier in the meeting, University
President Otis A. Singletary deliv-
ered his opening remarks concern-
ing the coming year at the Univer~
sity. After outlining the changes
which will take place in 1976-77,
Singletary expressed concern for the
basic problems of managing UK.

“We’re finding ourselves under
the same pressures as many other
institutions of higher learning, in
that we‘re always wrapped up in
numbers and dollars," Singletary
said. “I‘ve preached that message
often, but clearly without much
success. While we‘re constantly
expanding into new areas, we are
receiving less money in an era of
declining funding to state in-
stitutions.“

Singletary added, however, that
he was still optimistic about the
future because “the institution is
basically sound at the core.”

In other action Monday, the
Senate approved a measure which
will create two new committees, the
Committee on Extended and Con—
tinuing Education and the Commit-
tee on Special Teaching Tech-
nologies.

A third resolution was also ap-
proved which inserts a clause in the
Senate rules governing the Privilege

and Tenure Committee. The clause
is designed to add cases of discrim~
ination to the list of incidents under
which an instructor may ask to have

committee.

Also approved at the Monday
session was a measure which allows
the University to map out the school
calendar on a long-term basis. Up to
now, the calendar has been planned
annually.

The measure also shortens the
final exam schedule from five and
one-fourth days to five days.

In his speech, Dole stressed the
effort his party is making to
“preserve the free enterprise
system." He added, however, that
there is “too much emphasis on
‘free’ instead of ‘enterprise.’ "

Dole said the growth of America
was not “some socialist venture,”
but can be directly attributed to the
free enterprise system.

in other remarks, Dole referred to
“the alphabet jungle of regulations
and boards" that controls business.
He said President Ford has ap-
pointed a committee to see where
some red tape can be cut in other
government committees.

After the question and answer
session, Dole drove to the Council of
State Governments building on Iron
Works Pike, where he met privately
with the Senior Staff to discuss
revenue sharing issues.

Henry Clay letters remain inspirational

By LEONARD KELSAY
Kernel Staff Writer

Henry‘s clay is gone, but his let-
ters still survive.

Tucked away in a fourth-floor
corridor in King Library is a glass
doa‘ bearing thelegend “The papers
of Henry Clay."

For the last 24 years, scholars
have been working on those papers.
They have published nearly 5,000
pages of Clay’s correspondence and
will publish at least 8,000 more, but
their enthusiasm will not die.

“1 love to talk about Clay," said
Mary Hargreaves, who heads the
project. Hargreaves, a Radcliffe
graduate, has been with the project
since the beginning. “I just had a
PhD. that was going to waste while
my husband taught, so when the
Lilly Foundation gave us the initial
grant, ljustdrifted into it," she said.

The money from Lilly has long
since run out. The project is now
funded by a branch of the huge
General Services Administration in
Washington. “The GSA sent out
letters asking that the papers of
about 75 famous Americans be
preserved," Hargreaves said. “Dr.
Clark (authority on Kentucky
history now at lndiana University)
thought it would be a shame not to
edit Clay’s works in Kentucky."

So the project began — despite the
fact that the editors started without
even one Clay manuscript.
“Eventually, we were given one,"
Hargreaves said, “because they
said it would be nice for us to have
one, anyway. We work almost ex-
clusively from microfilms of Clay
papers in collections al over the
United States."

Clay manuscripts are so scattered
that over 50 collections of Clays
papers have so far bee found, ac-
cording to Hargreaves. “Despite the
scope of the project, we have only
three full-time employees,“ she
said. “Dr. Hopkins, the original
editor of the papers, works with us
on a consulting basis."

The staff has come to know Clay
quite well, said Burton Milward,
former assistant editor of the
Herald-Leader and now assistant
editor of the papers. “He was never
at a loss for words. He was eloquent,
graceful, charming..." Milward
said.

“He was suave and so charming
that people often wrote to him,

asking for locks of his hair. He must
have been (charming) —» he worked
himself up from a middleclass
family to the elite of the Bluegrass.
All his life, he wanted to be a
Southern gentleman. He made it."

“Sometimes his humor is a little
heavy," Milward said. “Espe-
cially.“ he paused, “When those
Jackson people got after him."

“His letters are not very revealing
of his personal life," Hargreaves
said. “But there is no question that
he was overbearing -~ riding high —
in the 1820's. Later on, after Jackson
became President, he was almost
embittered.“

Clay's self-image as a Southern

gentleman did cause some trouble,
Hargreaves said. “He fought some
duels. lie signed notes for some of
his close relatives and got into debt
for at least $20,000. His admirers
bailed him out -- he walked into the
bank one day and learned his debts
had been paid.“

“But if course, people didn‘tthink
that was so bad then," Milward said.

“He really was a country boy who
made good,“ Hargreaves said. ”His
politics were always a little con-
fused. He paid lip service to the
common man, but after he became a
Southern gentleman, he did not
always practice what he preached.“

The more things change, the more
they stay the same.

‘Hot line’ provides ‘listening ear’

By RHONDA OWENS
Kernel Reporter

“l'm not a professional by any
meam,“ Ted said at 266-3289, "but
one of my friends calls me the
listening ear."

Ted, who wishes to remain
anonymous in this article. has made
himself available to students or
anyone else who has a problem and
needs someone to talk to via a one-
man "hot line." A 35-year-old
retailer who attended UK fortwo
years, Ted said he set up the ‘hot
line' because his friends thought he
would be effective in helping
students. “My friends even paid for
the ad inthe Kernel." Ted said, “and
We been amazed at the response.“

Ted said that he has talked to from
It) in IS students as a result of the ad

and that some have called back a
second and third time.

“Some people take this thing as a
joke," he said, “but I find out if the
person is serious. Very few phonics
can get past me."

Ted said he worked in a church
situation for 11 or 12 years and thata
minister once told him that when
someone finds out one is a
professional. they often freeze and
are umble to talk about their
problems.

“People feel free to talk to
someone they‘ll never meet," Ted
said, although hesaid he would see a
person if he felt they were serious
and really wanted to talk.

There were some questions he
couldn't give an answer to, he said,
although he would listen to the
problem and advise the person

where to go to find help if needed.

Ted said two years ago he and a
friend would first sit at various
places on campus and see how many
perple would sit down next to one of
them and start telling them about
their problems.

“Some people need the personal
touch for there are thousands of
people acrrss the country who feel
that no one cares. l have ap
preciated in my time of need the
listening ear in other people," Ted
said.

Ted can be reache.’ afte. 9:30 pm.
any evening and until noon on
Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
He also said he usually is available
on Sundays and may have his
Saturdays free in the near future in
case anyone wished to call about a
problem or just talk.

Use of dogs

was wrong

Lexington Metro Police made
an error in judgment Saturday
night when they used canine
units to disperse an unruly crowd
in the 300 block of Aylesford
Place.

The incident was indeed
prompted by the actions of the
students involved. There were
reports from both police and
witnesses of beer cans and
bottles being hurled at police
vehicles am the crowd was
warned several times to
disperse.

The action taken by the officer
in charge, however, was still not
warranted by the cir-
cumstances. The parties in the
student neighborhoods directly
off campus have been a fairly
common occurrence, especially
in the warmer months.

Many times these parties have
become as large or larger, and
probably just asnoisy, as the one
Saturday night. And, until
Saturday night, they had always
been disbanded peacefully,
usually before 1 am.

The police naturally had an
obligation to respond to “37
complaints," if there were in-
deed that many. And, if the

students who persisted to loiter
on the premises would not leave,
they should have been arrested.

Unfortunately, the situation
was handled quite differently.
Police did not move into the
crowd and warn students of their
possible arrest, or even make a
“we-mean-business" arrest,
which is usually quite effective
in dispersing a crowd.

Instead they attempted to
sweep down Aylesford with their
German shepherds, forcing the
crowd to move onto Euclid
Avenue. The result was that
several persons who had not
been involved in the incident up
to that point were arrested. In
fact, one student was even at-
tacked by a police dog and
subsequently arrested after he
tried to enter his fraternity house
with a friend. (He said he was
returning from a local
restaurant.)

Had the dog not been present,
the arrest probably would not
have been made. Metro Police
Sgt. J. Glindmeyer, officer in
charge at the scene, told the
Kernel that the dogs were never
given an attack order and yet
would not deny that one student

had been injured by one of the
dogs.

the scene said his directives
were and the end result Show

clearly that Glindmeyer had
indeed erred. The use of the dogs
was unwarranted and illogical in
view of the situation, and the end
result, particularly for one
student, was unfortunate.

relationship with South Africa and
discuss our position in any
negotiations.

First. I would like to give a brief
report on really how repressive the
regime in South Africa is, so we can
know with whom we are negotiating.

In South Africa under Apartheid
(segregationist) rule, 20 million
blacks. Indians and other non-whites

are completely dominated by a
white population of only 4.1 million.
Blacks are not allowed to travel
freely within the country without a
pass. All blacks who live outside the
black reservations (Bantustans).
with the exception of some domestic
servants, must live in black town-
ships like Soweto. The townships are
overcrowded, unpaved collections of
corrugated and brick shacks most of
which have no running water,
bathrooms or electricity. Deplorablc
though they are, these shacks are
not even owned by the people that
live in them. Blacks are not allowed
to own property in South Africa.
Blacks are kept in these conditions
by the laws of Apartheid. Labor laws
refuse the right of collective bar-
gaining for black trade unions and

they don‘t feel used and it is entirely
respectable. Well, that may be true:
however, tlicad shreds dignity away
from the female role.

last season. I mean, they‘re great
guys. and, you know, we‘re gonna do
bcttcr itah! Rah! Rah!"

There's no reply one can make to
this mentality on this level; it's
unworthy of reply on any other ()f
course it's idealistic to desire the
end of spectator sports I'm all for

ban strikes by black workers Wages
for black workers under these laws
average :3 per cent of white workers.
Finally the education system is
stacked against the black majority.
You probably have heard about the
government trying to teach black
students in the white ruling lan-
guage of Afrikaans. but that is only
part of it. For example, white have
compulsory free education until they
are 16 while black students have to
pay. One statistic shows the glaring
inequality of education While one
out of 60 white South Africans
qualify for higher education. the
ratio for blacks is one in 2,500.
What is the US. relation to this
highly repressive and undemocratic
regime? The extremely low wages
paid black workers has provided

physical fitness and participation in
sports and going to a football
game and getting drunk is one of the
few things you can do in Lexington.
I'm sure some people would feel
immensely deprived if they had to
go without football. It has as much
merit as anything else, relatively
speaking. as an anthropologist
would agree.

Perhaps someone will say that this
letter will help to disturb the poor
football players. It might. and I
regret that my letter would upset
anyone. If it amuses anyone, so
much the better. But this ad
disturbed me. and that‘s not good for
me, either. There must be
something more.

Another dollar

“Another service, another dollar,

Charge the students they won’t
holler.”

I’m a UK student and I’ve been
hollering for two years mostly to
friends and fellow students, about
the bureaucratic shambles of this
“umbrella for colleges" called a
university.

Years ago the unquoteable “they"
said that a university was a good
way to band together to squeeze
more monies from the state. From
the state, said “they,” not the
students.

Each year UK squeezes more and
more monies from the Common-
wealth of Kentucky, ofwhich I am a
member. But in spite of this, there is
always a reason to charge students
more for services and benefits.

This year, for example, football
tickets are $8, up one from last year.
Presumably, basketball tickets will
cost more, not to mention the trudge,
for most students, into downtown to
attend the games.

Locker fees were $2 last year, this
year they are $5. (It’s the laundry,
y‘know, so we get taken to the
cleaners.) Tuition didn’t go up, and
I‘ve not been able, as yet, to find the
related fee which did rise. Health
fees didn’t go up, because no new
services were added, or if added,
they weren’t reported.

The food service contract prices
didn’t go up, but we found out this
summer that they shouldn’t have
been raised in the last 10 years
either, for there has been a surplus
almost every year, which resulted in
the purchase of Holly Tree Manor.
(This money could have benefitted
the majority of the student popula-
tion, but instead it only benefitted
the grads and some now rich
business person, and left 200 people
to find homes in an already over-
crowded housing situation.)

Now, Dr. Lyons wants to charge
the student population for the now
"free," yet inadequate, bus service,
saying “As IU, so should go UK."

It seems Lexington is reluctant to
“give” UK anything (the LCC is a
gift to the business community,
nothing has as yet been done on Rose
Street to ease the traffic hazards, no
low-income or even middle-income
housing has been started to ease the
student housing situation).

UK “gives" Lexington monies
through taxes on salaries of its
employes, and the goods and serv-
ices it buys from Lexington bus-
inessmen.

But then, UK is no angel either.
Besides all the “services” we re-
ceive (Pm-registration, Drop—Add,
Financial Aid, and tuition lines in
the fall, the towers, fees, and red
tape), UK gives us free bus service,
but if they decide to charge us for

even invaded Angola during its civil
war.

With this type of US. investment
in Southern Africa, it is apparent
that Kissinger is interested in nego-
tiating an agreement favorable to
American big business not in major-
ity rule. He and the American rulers
are trying to get South Africa to
pressure Ian Smith of “Rhodesia”
into compromising with the nation-
alist movement so that the fight for
liberation will not sweep all of
Southern Africa and damage US

' corporate interests there. Kissinger

is saying to the white minority it is
better to compromise and maintain
some control.

Pot nostalgia

Gatewood Galbraith’s recent
series of articles concerning
marijuana's possible future in
Kentucky left me feeling faintly
nostalgic without having anything to
feel nostalgic about.

His newly formed corporations
are yet another indication that
society has softened its view of the
pot smoker as a beyond-redemption
sinner. Yet when the laws are finally
wiped away, the crowds roar and the
dust settles, I'll be the one with the
tear on my cheek.

Ah, I remember my first ex-
perience with marijuana as if it
were yesterday. Sixth period had
been put aside for the big pep rally,
but as the halls emptied to the
footba ll stadium a few of us lingered
suspiciously behind.

“Hey, ever seen this before,” I
threw up my arms in moral agast
and peered closely. The new boy in
our crowd said “come on“ and we
slinked off under the bleachers.

I skipped my way home from
school that day, locked myself in my
room and played Sergeant Pepper
for hours past bedtime.

I ask you in earnest, how are
you going to feel scraping out your
desk drawer for the spillage of that
last ounce when Mom and Dad are
downstairs passing a Panama Red
One Hundred in front of the TV?
Aren‘t you going to feel a little silly
putting a dollar in change into a
machine to have a cellophane bag
drop out, two joints enclosed?

As far as I know I don't have any
desire to be arrested or spanked by
my mother. But I will admit to a
certain romanticism about days a
lot of signs would incicate are
drawing to a close.

Black workers boycott jobs,

police stop demonstrators

JOHANNESBURG. South
Africa (AP) —— Thousands of
black workers boycotted their
jobs Monday and police fired
birdshot and tear gas at
demonstrators in the black
township of Soweto. Police
also launched a house-to-
house sweep of another black
township, arresting many
persons.

The latest action to protest
South Africa‘s race policies
come as talks between Prime
Minister John Vorster and

Rhodesian Prime Minister
Ian Smith on the worsening
racial clashes in both coun-
tries were set to begin in
Pretoria on Tuesday. Also,
US. Secretary of State Henry
A. Kissinger is due in the
South African capital Friday
for another round of talks
with Vorster.

No injuries were reported
in the Soweto clash, which
police said came after sev-
eral buses were burned.

However, three black

youths were shot and wound-
ed by a white motorist near
(‘ape Town. The youths were
reportedly throwing stones at
ears. At least four nonwhites
were killed by white civilians
in separate incidents over the
weekend, police said.

The work boycott is a
repeat of a three-day boycott
last month organized in So-
weto. The huge black town-

ship is the source of much of .
nearby Johannesburg's labor .

Viking II robot arm jammed

PASADENA. Calif. (AP) —
Scientists tried desperately
Monday to unjam a mechan-
ical arm that was delaying
the experiment on the Viking
II robot most likely to show
whether there is life on Mars.

Three biology experiments
aboard the lander were pro-
perly cranking away, mean-
while, apparently having re-
ceived their regimen of Mar-
tian soil, scientists said.

But the search for organic
materials — carbon-based
molecules found in every liv-
ing thing on earth — stopped
dead in its tracks.

Viking lI‘s telescoping arm
developed problems after
scratching the rocky Utopia

surface and delivering a
clump of soil to the tiny
biology laboratories on

Sunday.
The arm was to have

delivered the remainder of
the soil to an X-ray probe. but
the delivery was never made.

A group of troubleshooters
crowded around a working
model of the lander here at
Jet Propulsion laboratory.
trying to recreate the situa-
tion of Viking II. and figure
out how to get the arm
working again.

Viking 11's arm was to take
its second reach Monday and
pick off a second sample. this
one designed for the organic
chemistry experiment. using

Carter emphasizes

southern concerns

[AP] ——While President
Ford presided over two Rose
Garden bill~signing
ceremonies Monday.
Democrat Jimmy Carter told
a campaign audience that
Ford has done nothing in the
White House to show he has
the ability to lead the nation.

Sticking to his style of
showcasing himself as a chief
executive rather than hitting
the campaign trail. Ford
signed bills requiring
government agencies to
conduct their business in
public and to protect
livestock producers against
bankrupt packers.

Gov. George(‘. Wallace at his

Southern voters that he
shares many of their con-
servative views.

group of small businessmen
in Birmingham, "We believe
in work and not welfare...l
believe the Southern people
and the American people
