Soviets call on US.
to remove warheads

By BARRY SCHWEID
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Soviet
Union yesterday called on the Unit-
ed States to clear away the “last
obstacles" to an agreement banning
medium-range nuclear missiles by
withdrawing 72 Pershing 1~A war-
heads from West Germany.

But US. officials said the war-
heads were not subject to negotia-
tions with the Soviets because the
missiles that carry them belong to
the West Germans.

“We have said consistently that
thirdcountry systems are not part
of the negotiations," White Home
spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said in
Santa Barbara, Calif., near Presi-
dent Reagan's ranch. “We stand by
that position."

A State Department official, who
demanded anonymity, said the war-
heads would be withdrawn from
West Germany only after the mis-
siles were dismantled.

West German Chancellor Helmut
Kohl offered last Wednesday to
scrap the Pershing l-A missiles,
which have a range of 465 miles,
after a U.S.-Soviet treaty is ratified
and put into effect.

Both the United States and the So-
viet Union welcomed the offer as a
step forward. But it is not clear
whether Kohl‘s schedule was accep-

table to Moscow or posed a problem
in completing the treaty.

At a news conference here yester-
day, a Soviet deputy foreign min-
ister, Vladimir F. Petrovsky, in-
sisted on removal of the warheads,
which are under US. control.

“If the United States would agree
to remove the 72 nuclear warheads,
the last obstacles to the double-zero
option would be removed." Petrovs-
ky said.

The Soviet official referred to the

dismantling of two categories of in-
termediate-range missiles in what
would be Reagan‘s first nuclear
arms control agreement with Mos-
cow.
In all, 332 US. missiles would be
withdrawn from West Germany.
Britain, Italy and Belgium while the
Soviets scrapped 442 rockets aimed
at Western Europe and an additional
121 missiles targeted on China and
Japan.

“It is very necessary for the Unit-
ed States now to give a clear an-
swer," Petrovsky said. “Seventy-
two nuclear warheads are part of
double-zero. “

On another arms control issue, So-
viet Col. Gen. Nikolai Chervov of-
fered to permit the United States to
conduct a nuclear weapons test on
Soviet territory in order to check the

Nominations
being sought

Award honors staff member
for creativity on the job

HEATHER TECKENBROCK
Contributing Writer

Nominations for the third annual
A. Paul Nestor Creativity Award
will be accepted through Nov. 1.

The award honors a Lexington
campus staff member who has dem-
onstrated initiative. creativity. more
efficient and safer operation, an out-
standing relationship with faculty
and students, and has shown the
ability to relate his or her work to
the mission of the University,
according to a press release about
the event.

The A. Paul Nestor Quasi-Endow
merit for Employee Creativity began
in 1984 when Paul Nestor, former di-
rector of business services, donated
$1,000 to UK. Nestor had won the
money for his innovative devel-
opment of “speedsorting,” a method
now used to cut down mail proc-
essing time.

The winner of the award will re
ceive $400 and have his name placed
on a plaque in the Student Center.
The two runners-up will receive
plaques. All nominees will receive a
notice of recognition.

The Nestor Award is perhaps the
most prestigious award given to any
campus staff member. said Marsha
Collins. who chairs the Nestor com-
mittee.

“It has generated quite a bit of ex-
citement. It lets students. faculty
and staff work together to a positive
end," said Collins. who is manager
of human resource development.

Last year‘s winner was Lillian
Downing, founder of the STEPS pro-
gram. used now to place students
and temporary help in jobs both on
and off campus.

Downing‘s program reflected a lot
of initiative, Collins said

Downing "had gone the extra mile
again and again. making students’
and faculty's life easier." she said.
The project will save the L'niversity
thousands of dollars every year. she
said.

Downing said she regards
award as a significant honor

"It's almost a Cinderella story."
she said. "I had only been back in
the job market for three years I
could relate to those who had been
out of the job market. Ten years
from now l‘m gomg to be glad to
say I won the Nestor Award."

The STEPS program was deSigned
by Downing in 1979 ['K had tried
unsuccessfully to develop a tempo-
rary pool of workers before asking
Downing to take over.

In 1983. STEPS was enlarged to
provide employment for students

Due to the tremendous re-
sponse it recieved last year, the
homework hotline is back again.

Amy Hack, founder and coordi-
nator of the hotline at UK, was
surprised at the response the hot~
line generated and is heading it
again this year.

“Once the hotline got under
way and the students knew about
it, we were getting up to 50 calls
a night —it was great,“ she said.

The hotline, run by UK honors
students, addresses problems
that Fayette County students in

 

kindergarten through the 12th
grade are having with their
homework. Students in bordering
counties, such as Woodford and
Jessamine, have used the hotline
as well.

Textbooks donated last year to
Fayette County are being used
this year, as are two telephone
lines donated by GTE.

The hotline currently has 25 re»
turning volunteers and hopes to
raise that number to 50, once its
campaign drive is under way.
Hack said. Honors students wish~
ing to volunteer should contact
Hack at either of the hotline's
numbers listed below.

“I really get a kick out
of (it)."
Matt Allison,
hotline worker

 

Last year. as part of the hot-
line's publicity campaign. a Lex~
ington radio station ran an ad ex-
plaining the hotline. Three
thousand posters were placed in
classrooms. This year, the suc-
cess of the program has
prompted officials to use just the
posters left over from last year‘s
campaign.

”It‘s one of the better organiza
tions to be involved in because it
gives me a chance to help out
public school students. which I
really get a kick out of.” said
Matt Allison. an honors student
working on the hotline.

New for this year is a triyia
call-in program on Kentucky Ed»
ucational Television. Textbooks
are awarded to students who call
in the correct answer to a trivia
question shown on the program

The hotline is operated 4 to 7
pm. Monday through Thursday
at The Gaines Center for the Hu-

are 238-5058 and 258-5059.

 

 

 

 

Speaker says adults should act as role models

By HEATHER TECKENBROCK
Contributing Writer

Adults have a duty to serve as role
models to younger generations. said
Davis Gardner, a UK professor of
Allied Health education and re-
search.

Gardner spoke on ”Intergeneratio-
nal Role Models: A Personal Per-
spective" yesterday at the Donovan
Council on Aging forum in 230 Stu-
dent Center.

“As an older adult, you are per-
ceived as one to emulate," Gardner

explained. Younger people watch
the actions of their elders.

Gardner invited audience mem-
bers to reflect on their childhood
and adolescent experiences, noting
elders who had positively or negati-
vely affected their lives. She then
challenged them to analyze their
own lives and decide if they were
serving as positive role models
themselves.

Several attributes that role models
need are independence, love, intel-
lectual curiosity, kindness, courtesy.

honesty, humor and service to oth-
ers,she said.

“What more wonderful gift can
someone receive than a helping
hand from someone else?"

Gardner stressed the fact that
“there are some young adults
watching you and who consider you
the most important intergeneratie
nal role model in their lives.“

Gardner challenged the audience
to be positive and helpful to the
younger generation.

bachelor's degree in philosophy and

By MIKE EMBRY

US. Rep. Larry J . Hopkins yester-
day announced the formation of the
Kentucky Ag'iculture Development
Foundation, an organization that
wants to unite farmers and promote
agriculture in Kentucky.

“More Kentuckians are employed
in agriculture than in manufactur-
ing," said Hopkins, a 6th District
Republican. “Still. there is more ex-
citanent about supplanting land

with concrete factories than with
saving the land for farming.

“These are the attitudes that
allow the people who feed America
to find themselves going hungry . . .
it is the intention and purpose of this
foundation to change those atti-
tudes."

Jerry Cecil, a Winchesta' farmer
and businessman, was named chair-
man of the til-member board of di-
rectors that will oversee the m‘s
statewide efforts.

“We're going to try to bring to-
gether disparate agricultural inta-

ests out there," said Cecil, who op
erates Cecil Farms in Hazel Green
and Winchester Plant and Flower
Co.

“1 think we need to develop a
state plan that considers agriculture
as an industry. It needs to be consid-
ered for what it is — a primary and
essential part of the economy."

Hopkins, who is not a member of
the board, suggested that the organi-
zation develop a marketing strategy
for farm products and assist in [to-
moting supplemental income oppor-
tunities for farmers. He said it also

ture foundation for the “gathering.

distributing of a vastly expanded va»
riety of farm products. "

Although the board is made up of
central Kentuckians. Hopkins be-
lieves it will have no trouble attract-
ing farmers in other areas of the
state.

"I think that should be its impe~
til," he said. “It should expand it-
self. In no means is it contained

trict."

J ubulent sound of Cougar Mellencamp LP let down by nowhere lyrics

B) ERIK HEEt‘l-I
Arts Editor

Since the release of Scarecrow,
people have called John Cougar Mel-
lencamp a visionary so many times
that he's starting to believe it.

Which is only to say that, with The
Lonesome Jubilee, he plunges head-
first into a collection of protest
songs and domestic lamentations

. that show him to be anything but a

- visionary. Instead, Mellencamp has
brought together a collection of
songs that exhibit nothing but small-
town tunnel vision. In the context of
Scarecrow and Uh-huh. Jubilee iS
decidedly regressive.

The only vision Mellencamp
emerges with on the current LP is of
the guy sitting on the bar stool. And
next to him, life is miserable. Not
that a miserable life isn’t suitable
material for some of the best of
songs. But Mellencamp is too far re-

TIIE LONESOME JUBILEE

moved from the emotions of others
to express them honestly.

Jubilee seems to be geared in the
the mold of Born to Run. with its
stark, wrap-around cover photo,
double inside-cover lyric sheet and a
wide assortment of brash instru-
ments that make each song seem
larger than life.

What’s missing is content. By
now, I‘m sure Mellencamp shudders
every time Springsteen comparisons
are brought up, but the guy asks for

it. On Born to Run. Springsteen
moved in and out of personas with
ease; Mellencamp’s tramition is
choppy and pedantic. He endows his
characters with blunt, visceral emo-
tions rather than serious pain.

Side one is largely spent missing
the past, misunderstanding the [re-
sent and mistrusting the future.
Even “Paper In Fire," the first sin-
gle, can’t match up lyrically with
the exuberant, broad pace set down
by Mellencamp’s band. Instrumen-
tal burn-on is set beside lyrical bur-
nout.

“The Real Life” and “Check It
Out" wave a crying towel about a
generation that is lost in a cul-de—sac
and can‘t find its way out.

To be fair, side two scores points

without hope.

Even Springsteen, at his most des-
olate songwriting stages, leaves his
characters with the chance that
comes from the struggle. When we
last see the narrator of “Thunder
Road,” he is pulling out of a “town
fulloflosers."

Mellencamp leaves his characters
making the same mistakes over and
over. They don’t know why and
they're not smart enough. nor do
they have the courage, to reach for
a change. In that sense, they de-
serve what they get. It's hard to feel
any sympathy for them. Outside of
the music itself, it‘s harder still to
like The Lonesome Jubilee.

 South Korean students clash with riot

By BARRY RENFREW
Associated Press

SEOUL. South Korea — Universi-
ties reopened for the fall term yes-
terday and immediately became
battlegrounds for police and anti-
govemment students. One campus
fight with rocks, firebombs and tear
gas lasted three hours.

As students demanded the omter
of President Chun Doo—hwan, lead-
ers of the government party and the
opposition worked on a timetable for

a presidential election and peaceful
transition when Chun‘s term ends in
February.

Labor unrest that began in July
continued to cripple the export-
based economy, and hundretk of
strikes for higher pay were in pro-
gress yesterday. Prime Minister
Kim Chung-yul said workers had
been shortchanged in South Korea’s
economic boom and the government
would seek greater benefits for
them.

South Korea’s trade surplus in Au-

gust was only one-quarter of the
total for August 1906, the govern-
ment reported.

Fighting between protesters and
riot squads began on the huge Seoul
National University campus after a
rally by 4,000 students. Police fired
tear gas and charged behind shields
during the three-hour battle, while
students hurled stones and threw
firebombs.

The South Korean news agency
Yonhap said about 10,000 students in
all demonstrated at 19 other schools

across the country. It did not say
whether those protests were violent.

Radical student leaders have
vowed to topple Chun's government.
and the size of the Seoul National
University rally indicated strong
support.

Students traditionally are in the
vanguard of protest in South Korea.
They led weeks of demonstrations
that caused Chun to agree June 30 to
opposition demands for direct presi-
dential elections and other demo-
cratic reforms.

Another change promised was less
government control of unions. With-
in days, workers in transport, min-
ing and the major export industries
began striking for higher pay, better
working conditions and free unions.

Successive governments have co
operated with business since South
Korea's “economic miracle“ began

Orienting members
should help SGA

The Student Government Association senate will hold its
first meeting tonight. Normally, first meetings at SGA, or
any group for that matter, are boring and organizational.

This year, for the first time, SGA will meet before its
normal meeting time to do a little learning.

The senate will hold an orientation meeting in which old
and new members will learn the finer points of how to
write legislation, how to conduct proper parliamentary pro-
cedure and generally how to be better senators.

In short, the orientation meeting is an excellent idea.

Having a more knowledgeable senate will save valuable
time and cut out a lot of the waste and political clutter for
which SGA meetings are known.

However, this good idea will be for naught if SGA
doesn‘t put it into practice throughout the school year.

What that means is that not only should the student gov-
ernment practice good, sound technique on the senate
floor, but more importantly the issues brought out each
meeting should keep in mind the students each senator is
elected to represent.

With a university in as much transition as UK is, (i.e.
new president and vice chancellor for student affairs), stu-
dents need SGA to be an active and effective voice.

Issues, as with the rising cost of tuition, need constant
student input and opinion.

The Student Government Association is in an obvious
position to be that voice. It has the resources, the time and
the people to actually make a difference.

Taking the time to make sure its senators are well-
schooled in the how-to’s of student government is a good
idea. But only if SGA follows through on it.

Students should plan
now for contributing

United Way volunteers will kick off their 15th annual
fund-raising campaign here at UK next Thursday, Sept. 10.
The University community has always been generous with
its time and money during this drive. making the Universi-
ty the second largest fund-raiser in Lexington.

We encourage this year to be no different.

Today is not too early to start searching your hearts
and bank accounts to find that something to give.

Last year more than $292,000 was raised, an increase of
more than $30,000 from the year before. This year the Unit-
ed Way campus campaign cabinet has set a goal of
$310,000.

With the help of UK students, administrators, faculty,
staff and employees, this figure can be eclipsed.

Students should be a big factor in this accomplishment.
Though many students are scrimping to pay for tuition,
rent, parking stickers, books and other school-related
costs, we think that feeling of warmth and good will is
worth the extra scraping.

Several events are directed toward students, events
such as a haunted house, a slave auction and drawings for
tickets to UK activities.

So when students are about to eat that extra hamburg-
er, buy that one more album or order that last pitcher of
beer, we encourage you to sacrifice that little something
and give.

Those pleasures can wait; somebody’s life can‘t.

Deserve l"’35le Welcome back

   

I suppose that being a former
journalist as well as a native
Lexingtonian made me especially
susceptible to Thomas J. Sulli—
van's column “Psychic Lexing-
tonians forget about those unen-
lightened few. "

While I‘m truly sorry that Mr.
Sullivan has had such misfortune
on these Lexington streets, I re-
sent his biased and sarcastic
tone.

Students from UK are treated
with great hospitality in Lexing-
ton. as are all who visit. Most of
us aren't "idiots“ or "danger-
ous.“ We don‘t say things like
“layft“ or “riot" and I’m quite
sure that Lexington water meets
With federal standards.

l'm surprised that Mr. Sullivan
chose to attend college here,
since he obviomly has such little
regard for the citizens of this
town.

Never be too quick to overgene~

The welcome mat is out at the
University Club dining room, lo-
cated in 214 Student Center, (old
President‘s room). Staff and fac-
ulty may purchase food at any of
the food service areas in the Stu-
dent Center and dine in Room
214.

The University Club Advisory
Board is working very closely
with Frank Harris, director of
the Student Center. and Allen
Rieman, director of Auxiliary
Services, to create a pleasant
dining atmosphere. The following
plans have been developed:
wA small lounge area will be
created at each end of the room
so employees may visit with their
friends.

wNenty percent of the tables
will seat two people.

wThe walls will be decorated.

wCoffee and iced tea will be in
the room for refills.

.zDining tables will be cleaned
