HAYMOND HOLLOW Sen. Robert F. Kennedy ended his on-- t
probe of Eastern
Kentucky jxwerty yesterday convinced that the
hunger and despair plaguing rural America are
he-sce-

utterly "unacceptable."

He promised to seek emergency governmental

job programs and special tax credits for industries
that locate in impoverished areas.
"People don't have enough to eat, those who
want jobs have to go on welfare, and we're

going to do something al)out it," he said simply.
Several residents of the region came to Kennedy in hearings held to help a Senate subcommittee write antipovcrty legislation. And Kennedy called on many more, like those in this
hollow near Neon.

The plight of Mr. and Mrs. Mark B. Smith
and their six children particularly impressed him.
Told the family gets fresh milk only once a month,
he asked what the day's noon meal had leen."
"Beans," answered Mrs. Smith. Breakfast consisted
of "gravy."And what would supper be, the senator
asked. "Beans again, I guess," the woman said

with dejection.
Smith is bitter because "if you don't hang in
that clique in Whitesburg, you don't get nothin'."
He doesn't; his monthly income is $80.

Peace Group Pickets Dow
On 'Businesslike' Schedule
By DARRELL RICE
Kernel Staff Reporter
The protest against Dow
Chemical Co. recruiting here
Wednesday was so orderly that
it seemed more like a business
organization than a protest.
The picketers legan their
activity at 9 a.m. and knocked
off for an hour at noon to eat
lunch. They called it a day at
4 p.m. sharp.
They also had a formalized
change - of - c 1 a s s proceeding.
When class bells rang at 10
minutes before each hour, they
abandoned their vigil on the
side of the Old
Agriculture Building and moved
to the other side, next to the
Commerce Building, to gain exposure to students traveling
there between classes.
When the hour bells rang,
they shifted promptly back to
the other side.
The number of picketeers
varied from three to over 15.
All totaled, around 25 protesters participated in the Peace
Action Group (PAG) activity.
Most of them were UK students, but five Transylvania
students and a few people from
Lexington also appeared.
PAG presented a statement
of its position:
of the

"Now we mipht see why Mr.
Doan likes to make money by

for upholding LBJ as a model
for morality.
"And when our government
commits crimes and passes unjust laws, we as citizens are not
guiltless. We cannot pass the
buck morally and let LBJ decide what is right and wrong
for us.

p;;

fort those of our leaders who
insist on continuing to slaughter Vietnamese peasants."
The Dow recruiter left word
with a Placement Service secretary that he would not talk to
anyone, including the press, besides those who had signed up
for interviews.
A full schedule of appointments was made for the day,
but at least four of the interviewees were anti-Dopeople
who had signed up in order to
talk to the recruiter. This action
was done independently of
PAG activities.
The signs carried by protesters ranged from the humorous
Stick
("Stop making napalm
to Saran Wrap" and "Napalm
melts in your mouth. And in
your hand") to the cryptic

("Napalm

is

A few

Obscene").

students stopped to
discuss matters with the picketers, but most passersby only
chuckled and went their way.
The picketers seemed to agree
that their purpose was more
to reach fellow students than to
persuade Dow not to make
napalm.
One protester remarked "We
stand in the cold so babies

don't burn."

SG Discards 2,000

Unsold Faculty Guides

By CHUCK KOEHLER
More than 2,000 copies of the Student Cuide to Courses and
Instructors at the University of Kentucky, on sale to students
at one dollar a copy last semester, were placed on the Student
Center loading dock last night to await the junkpile.
The guides consisted of attitude questionnaires which were
filled out by students taking the courses considered. Forty-on- e
questions concerning the course as well as the instructor were
asked of students. Their answers were given in percentages on a
five point attitude scale.
The Student Guide to Courses at the University of Kentucky,
Inc. compiled the statistics under the direction of editor-in-chiHoward H. Shanker, who has prepared similar guides on other
campuses.
Shanker attributed the guides poor sales to Student Government which promoted and financed the project at a cost roughly
estimated at $3,500.
"The Student Coveniment didn't make an effort to sell it,"
noted Shanker. He added that he had to call the SG office to get
them to put more copies of the guide in the bookstores when they
ran out.

Learning Experience9

Home Management Houses

By LINDA HARRINGTON
Life in a home management
house is "a valuable learning

experience," according to the 11
girls who are presently occupying the Richards and Sweeney
Houses.
The girls must spend eight
weeks of their senior year living
in one of the two houses as
part of the program for a vocational or management major
in home economics. They receive
three credit hours for the course,
which is designed to give them
practical experience in

either once or twice a week.
One group must invite an "elite
guest." or someone who is older.
Rut they also have had their
boyfriends, their parents and
former roommates to dinner.
All the planningand shopping
for the meals is done by the girls
themselves with the approval of
their adviser. Management and
work simplification are stressed
and the students nuke out planning charts and evaluate their
meals.
Each student cooks one foreign meal and they have special
days for certain activities, such
as "small appliance day" when
everything is cooked on small
appliances. They also have a
"spring housecleaning day" during which one girl said they
cleaned house from 8 a.m. to 6
p.m. at night.
One of the houses has gas
appliances and the other has
electricity. These are furnished
respectiv ely by the Columbia Cas
Company and Kentucky Utilities.
The girls get up every day
at 7:30, eat breakfast and clean
house until alxmt 9 a.m. when
they go to classes. Some feel
they get more done while working on this kind of schedule,
while others feel pressed for time
and leisure activities. One said
she believes the amount of time
spent in cleaning is excessive.
All the girls agreed however
that they "learned a lot" and
considered the course a valuable one. They get practice in
manipulating time, energy,
and money.
The food budget consists of
$1 a day for each gill but for
one week the girls managed on

The food was descri!ed as

she was making coffee. "But they
don't really care if we make
mistakes as long as we know
why we made them."
Roth groups described themselves as "tightly knit." They
felt they had lost contact with
the campus and old friends.
"Sometimes we don't realize
there's a campus over there because all our classes are so interrelated with our work here."
All the girls are permitted to
go home one weekend during their
eight-wee- k
stay in the houses.
Alter the eight-wee- k

a grade by their adviser.
"We like to complain," said
a vocational major," but I actually like it better than I thought
I would. I was scared. I didn't
want to live here. Rut the housework is no more than I do at
home and I'm really enjoying it."

eral thought their meals were
"too formal" and they didn't
like having to keep an "intellectual table conversation going," directed by the hostess.
They did feel they learned
how to meet unexpected situations and handle them with
poise, especially when entertaining. One girl commented, "We
have learned a lot but it s not
really a homelike situation. They
want us to know something about
everything. It would be a lot
better if the schedule and things
weren't so strict and rigid."
Another girl agreed, "The
course itself is good but they ask
too much of you." She feels
there is "no time for relaxation."
They all agreed three hours isn't

work involved.

Many Campus
Fire Alarms
Are False
Approximately

31 percent of

the fire alarms received on

cam-

pus in 1967 were false, according
to Stephen Logan, Safety Officer
of the Safety and Security Division.
They presented serious problems because firemen have no way
of knowing whether or not an
alarm is false, and so must answer them pH.
Of the 46 false alarms received
last year, 22 originated in residence halls, 17 in the Medical
Center and seven in the general
campus area, Mr. Logan said.
Of 20 fire calls from the campus so far this year, seven have
been false alarms. Mr. Logan
said those seven all originated
in residence halls.
He said, "90 percent of all
false alarms occur after midnight
and on weekends. Students seem
to have nothing to do, so they
pull false alarms."
Those false alarms in the Medical Center are probably done by
children of patients or visitors,
but there is no way of being sure,
Mr. Logan concluded.

Shankcr said the guide's promotion was "killed" .because
since he couldn't use his own
plan, it had to be put together
in a makeshift fashion.
"The Kernel's critical review
of the guide didn't help any,"
said Shankcr.
Student Government President Steve Cook said he had
ordered the disposal of the extra copies because there was no
storage room in the Student Center for the "overabundance."
Cook said 650 copies of the
guide had been sold, although
between three and four thousand
were printed.
Plans are being made for the
publication of another guide this
spring, according to Cook. However, no mention was made as
to whom would publish the new
guide.

Kennedy Calls Mountain Poverty Intolerable'

Continued from Tate One
Bitter dissatisfaction with local officials and programs surfaced continously.
One high
school student was especially
critical of the Harlan County
Scliool Board. "Politics is the
name of its game," said
Tommy Duff, "and the losers
are the students." He has been
expelled from Evarts High School
for publishing a newsletter about
"deplorable" conditions at the
scliool.
Senator Kennedy spent several minutes inside the small
shack of Morgan Potter, a
"Happy Pappy" who has complained of abuse by local officials. Kennedy called in the county judge for a private talk. Resolving the situation for the moment, he leaned over to talk

about that age.
The senator set about thetask
of taking testimony with a special seriousness, feeling he was
carrying out plans of his brother
the late president, who had
scheduled a close-u-p look of Eastern Kentucky for December 1963.
He summed up what he had
seen and heard, and how he felt
about it, during a four-hohear-

"This is a proud land; mountaineers are proud people," he

"Young men are forced to

And the old, the sick, the buried,
those who know no other life,

Government programs have

is hunger, and there still are no

"Help us to save our land,"
Caudill urged, "and you will

"Hunger has lurked in the
Southern Appalachians for many
generations," he pointed out. "As
long ago as 1863 President Abraham Lincoln (said) that at the
conclusion of Hie great war then
raging the national government
must find a way to help people
of the Southern mountains who
had so long been passed by and
forgotten." Continuing for a moment with history of the region,
Caudill then drew the obvious
parallel:
