TKO food price comparison survey

produces unexplained discrepancies

By BRl'FE W. SINGLETON
Kernel Staff Writer

After conducting two market—basket
price comparisons of local food markets,
TKO, a public interest group, found It must
revise its survey form and procedural.

The results of the first survey, published
in the Herald—Leader (July 4) found a 7.3
per cent difference -—ra total of four dollars
between the least expensive store, the
New Circle Road K Mart, and the most
expensive store, Shopper's Choice on
Versailles Road.

THAT SURVEY. taken June 20, 21 and 22
also showed differences between stores
within chains. It found a difference of over
three dollars among Kroger stores and
Shopper's Choice locations. Among A&P
locations, the survey found a difference of
$2.86, and among Winn Dixie Stores, it
found a spread of $1.70.

Store officials insist that such a dif-

ference should not exist. Many of the
stores operate from a pricing catlog set up
by district offices. There is no latitude
allowed for the individual stores.

However, on such items as bread and
other pastry products whose “fresh“ date
has expired. individual store managers
may lower the prices for sale. A $.79 “day
old" apple pie. for example. may be
reduced to $.59 without pricing approval,
simply to move the item.

PRICING ()N “staple“ items should
remain constant within chain stores, but
this is where discrepancies arose.

Larry Herman, organizer of the com-
parative pricing project, explained that
the price spread may have been due to a
lack of specificity on the survey. “Ham-
burger and ground beef are not the same
thing,” he said, “and some stores don't
carry hamburger."

Indicating a price for an item which a
store did not have was another problem.

Hall decides
not to make
any more tapes

By KAY cows
Editor-in-(‘hief

In response to controversy over the New
American Movement (NAM) convention
tapings two weeks ago, Dean of Students
Jack Hall decided Monday to discontinue
the tradition of his office determining what
meetings or speeches will be recorded.

He proposed in a July/"22 ‘letter to
President ()tis Singletary that ”the
established practi cc of recording meetings
by my office be discontinued effective
immediately."

The proposal was approved by Vice
President for Student Affairs Robert
Zumwinkle and concurred by Singletary.

HALL l-‘l'R'I‘HER suggested that ad
ficient to guide future University actions

conceming meetings and speeches.”
The ”Policy Governing Speakers From

golf-Campus“ states that the University,

through the Office of the President, ”may
prescribe conditions for the conduct of
programs at which offcampus speakers
appear“ Under these rules (which Hall
said are covered in the Student Code)
Singletary would make any decisions if
speakers were questionable.

However. under the new policy meetings
would be taped only on a request basis.
Students or organizations with interests in
recording speeches or discussions would
take their requests directly to the recor-
ding facility. Taping decisions would also
be approved by the speaker or
organization prior to the meeting.

IN THE letter to Singletary. Hall ex-

plained his view of the taping incident:

Kernel Staff Writer

Until Jan. I, 1975, a 16 to 18 year old
female who is “camally known" by a
male under 21 may have a hard time
proving she was raped.

Until Jan. I, a defendant in a rape case
involving a 16 to 18 year old can introduce
evidence of the girl's “previous acts of
sexual immorality“ and her “general
reputation for sexual immorality“ as a
defense.

IN JANUARY. the revised Kentucky
penal code will limit the “sexual im—
morality“ defense to those charged with
"sexual intercourse...by forcible com-
pulsion," regardless of the age of the
victim.

In the case of forcible compulsion,
Lexington attorney Bob Lawson said, “We
must phce in the hands of the jury every
item of information that could have any
possible bearing on the case.”

Lawson worked as adviser to the revised
code.

It's necessary. he said, to protect the
defendant. “Rape cases." he added, “are
subject to serious consideration because
we have to build a' wall of protection
around an innocent man."

REBEFCA WESTERFIELD, of the
Lexington Women‘s Center Legal Rights
Committee, didn‘t agree.

“What is on trial." she said, “is the
credibility of the victim instead of the
defendant and consequently women are
relucumt to report rape."

“The new law doesn‘t change this." she
continued. ‘They have just put all the old
laws together and attached varying
degrees on rape. It‘s no better or worse
than the old one.“

 Reclaim the land

A task of monumental importance to Kentucky and
the nation now rests with the US. House of
Representatives. This week the House is considering
legislation which would enact unprecedented federal
strip mine regulations.

The need for a strong federal strip mine law is
evident, especially in light of the westward shift
stripping has taken in recent years. Good laws exist in
a few states, including Kentucky, but their inability to
enforce them point up the need for nationwide stan-
dards.

The House is currently debating a bill which,
although imperfect, would provide for such federal
regulation. HR 11500 would establish federal stan-
dards to curb environmental abuses of strip mining,
authorize states to set up their own programs to
control stripping, require all strip mined land to be
fully reclaimed and establish a fund for revegetating
and restbring abandoned strip mine sites.

The bill falls short of dealing with the problems
inherent in strip mining. Stripping has increased 270
per cent since 1971 in Eastern Kentucky alone and the
coal industry is eagerly expanding their operations to
Western states. But strippable coal reserves are
short term‘ and account for only three per cent of the
coal available in this country. Besides causing
irreversible environmental damage, strip mining has
resulted in economic decay for depressed Ap-
palachian regions.

 

 

Although surface mining will never be totally
abolished, as a bill defeated by the House last week
advocated, industry should redirect its emphasis to
deep mining.

The bill has many good points which hopefme
won’t be gutted by industry-backed congressmen. It
contains fairly strong citizen participation provisions,
prohibits strip mining in national forests and
wilderness areas and guarantees protection of sur-
face owners. More importantly, it set requirements
for reclamation and restoring stripped land to its
original contour.

One crucial amendment deserves support from
Kentucky congressmen. The Sieberling Amendment
establishes a $2.50 per ton reclamation fee on all coal
mined in the US. This far-reaching amendment

its downward lurches that day.
but the jig was up for Alice
anyway. She sat in the splendor
ofcarved wood and crystal lights
at the Plaza Hotel restaurant,
listening to the penetrating notes
of the violin player and drinking a
Campari, when she announced,
“It‘s awful. I'm wiped out. I took
my portfolio to an investment
counsellor and he told me I‘m
worth one—third of what I was two

the market too long. He couldn‘t
believe it wouldn't go back up.
I‘m going to have to get a job."

Across the lobby of the hotel
where Eloise is suppoéed to have
played hopscotch on the marble
and hide-and-seek behind Vic-
torian ferns, the Manhattan
Follies, a female impersonator

Persian Room, the Plaza's
famous boite d'elegance. Some of
the members of the cast seemed
as surprised at being there as
were the members of that part of
the world which associates the
hotel with the horse-drawn
carriages that wait outside for
fares. But then, after dark, you
can‘t go any farther across the
streetinto Central Park than the
gilded victory statue of William
Tecumseh Sherman without
running the risk of getting your
throat slit by robbers. The world
is no longer a safe place, even for
Americans.

“WELL. YOU ought to expect
it,” said the person who im-

Fear and confusion surround rape issue

By DON DUKE

Rape is a four-letter word that rings an
alarm bell in the heads of most women in
this country today. And for a very good
reason, since rape is perhaps the most
potentially frightening experience that a
woman could face. Not only does she face
physical harm and possible mutilation, but
also the psychological humiliation of
public disclosure.

The Kentucky Kernel has given space to
two articles in recent additions to rape
here in Lexington. In these articles,
figures were reported stating that
Iexington in the past year has experienced
a 100 per cent increase in rape. And even
more alarming to those of us at the
University was the lastest article which
carried the headline “Most City Rapes
Occur in University Area."

IN THIS LAST article there were
several confusing facts presented. For
example, nine rapes were reported since
June 17, raising the overall number of
rapes to 32 for this year. The article then
says two of the rapes were UK-related and
quotes Chief Paul Harrison as saying that
there had been no rapes reported on
campus for some time. To further confuse
matters the article went on to say that of
the total of nine rapes reputed so far in
Lexington this year, only one was related
to the University.

Not only are the facts almost impossible
to straighten out, but in the last article the
news source (Metro Detectives Bill Allen
and Sharon Harper) abo said much about
the subjectof rape which disagrees almost

to the letter with criminologist experts.
Harwin Voss, sociology professor and

noted author of several books dealing with

delinquency, said, “I disagree with the

'detectives’ description of how rapists

operate. There is no evidence to support
that rapists start out with offenses like
exposure and progress to forceable rape.”

“THESE DETECTIVES’ quotes remind
me of the typical police statement about
marijuana," he continued, “where once
you smoke one joint you end up shooting
$200 worth of heroin a day. All my reading
shows thatindividuals involved in offenses
like exposure do not progress; once an
exhibitionist always an exhibitionist.

“Studies show that most rapists simply
do not understand female sexuality,” Voss
continued. “They think they are turning
the female on, and when they approach her
and get turned down they become angry,
in come cases even killing the victim.

“There is one thing in the article I agree
with, and that is that the present increase
in reported rapes can be attributed to
women reporting more of these offenses.
Women deserve the right to counseling and
treatment for rape.

“POLICE statistics, especially the FBI
Uniform Crime Reports, are misleading in
many cases. And in an almost over-
whelming majority of the cases the only
rise in crime is the (result of) further
sophistication of police reporting.

“I feel rather certain that there is no
more rape in Lexington today than several
years ago, at least proportionally, and
especially not in the UK campus are,

People: Something's lost when something's gained

By TIM Ml'RPHY

“The Corps of Engineers never goes
anywhere unless they are invited." is a
tune the Corps likes to toot. With respect to
the movers and shakers in Powell County
the invitation was sent during the public
hearings in Hazard and Frankfort in 1954.

The motivations for it were as deep as
any progressive hope: It could bring
wealth to the area because of the initial
federal investment, bring tourism and
attract industry.

(‘1.AY CITY. the principal town in the
Red River basin, was the focal point for
which the dam was to aid. The farm ser—
vice center economy did not allow desired
growth and in fact had declined during the
depression. The town was limited in ex-
panding its size because all the most
desirable flatland areas were to the south
and east of the city — areas that were in
the floodplain.

Clay City has always aspired beyond its
means. From 1830 to the Civil War iron ore
deposits were extracted and smelted from
the hills nearby and brought to Clay City
for shipment overland to the Bluegrass.
(The presence of iron ore may have
determined the name Red River.) It was a
regional enterprise at best and after the
war was not resumed.

In the 1870‘s demand for lumber arose in
the midwest and east. The sawmill
operation which located in Clay City was
purportedly one of the largest in the
country. Small gauge raillines threaded
through the Red River basin cutting out
prime lumber and hauling it back to Clay
City.

The state, during the 20‘s, developed
Natural Bridge as a park. A railline was
sent to the park from Winchester through

Clay City and enjoyed a prosperous decade
until folding in the Depression.

WITH THE advent of the Depression the
only trigger left to shoot up the economy
remained the national government. In the
30‘s the Forest Service bought nearly a
third of Powell County acreage. The CCC
worked in the area and through the WPA
the Sky Bridge road was constructed.

During the 40‘s and 50’s, however, the
only piece of federal legislation available
that would put significant money in Powell

County was a dam.
When the Corps finally recommended

construction of the dam, conditions had
already begun to change which today
supplant the need for the dam as an
economic development criteria.

Construction of the Mountain Parkway
began in 1962 offering ready access into
the mountains and the Bluegrass. Fur-
thermore, this road is never affected by
high water, therefore Clay City is never
isolated now by the Red River. Along with
the state's investment in the highway
came the increased investment in
Natural Bridge Park. Present park
visitation has climbed to 1.3 million.

THE FARM economy in the area has
improved especially in the broad Red
River valley near Clay City. Here beef
cattle are very well-suited without the
usual tradeoff in not planting row crops
since the land is not that fertile and the
price of beef has increased. Land prices
have escalated because of all the above
reasons and additionally, because of a new
demand for mountain land by midwestern
middle class and upper class people.
Powell was one of the few mountain
counties to show an increase in population
in the 60's.

which has always been one of the lowest
crime districts in the city. Except for
noise-related offenses and bicycle thefts,
crime is almost nonexistent in the UK
area," Voss said.

We in Kentucky, like all other states
except Nevada, must face the potential of
future harm from rape. What is so dif-
ferent about Nevada? Nevada has
legalized prmtitufion and, like other areas
of the world thatissue permim to “ladies of
the evening,” it has almost no rape at all.

THERE ARE women in Lexington
willing to accomodate those men who are
rapists, and fora fee nothing a man might
suggest would be too shocking for those
women. The men are rapists because our
society does not know how to deal with the
present rape situation.

Why not let these men be relieved of
their pressure by females who willingly
accept money and letthe rest of the female
population be releived of the fear of rape?

Women are generally not trained to
defend themselves against any kind of
physical attack and therefore feel all the
more defenseless against rape. Instead of
feeling they must buy attack-trained dogs
or carry weapons, women should put
pressure on the politicians to pass laws
giving them freedom from such defensive
measures.

If we legalize prostitution the women in
Lexington, like those in Nevada, will
forget the fear of rape.

 

Don Duke is a philosophy major and
Kernel staff writer.

The dam for Powell County and Clay
City is icing on the cake. At best, the dam
can offer added investment climate to
Clay City. (The City is already set to make
a new industrial park when the dam is
built on perhaps the lowest land near the
river: it belongs to none other than Nellie
and Roscoe Meadows.) At worst it will be
the final consumption of the last natural
resource in thecounty.

When Mrs. Meadows declares the Red
River dam will displace the fewest
families of any Corps project in the state,
she doesn‘t tell you that it will bring flood
protection to the fewest people, too.

* 3|: *

Upa t the end of the Red River Valley the
North Fork country begins at the forks of
the Red. In a half mile lies the mouth of the
gorge. From there winding for 12 miles to
the furtherest upstream farm at Chimney
Rock the way is parcelled in farms and
forest land.

Walls of the canyon are. as rugged as the
Sky Bridge area but further back from the
river. Natural arches, rockhouses, a
diversity in vegetative cover and
prehistoric Indian remains occur on these
private lands.

THERE ARE 55 families presently
living there. Most have intermarried,
welding ties of family to ties of com-
munity. Mostfamilies trace their kin back
eightgenerations of living on North Fork.
Some came from Virginia as did the
originalwhite land holder, Delmus Bowen,
who got his land for service in the
Revolution and from none other than
Patrick Henry. Some came from Harlan
County in the 1850‘s.

 

 

 

These people are not quaint or legendary
as people, say in Foxfire are. They are
alive to their time of 20th century America
but continue to love and hold to the land.
When the Forest Service came around in
the 30’s many did not sell their woodlands

or sold only above the cliff line.

Some areas on maps marked “Daniel
Boone National Forest” are really still
their lands. One old father remembers
when his dad said no to loggers, keeping
uncut what was to be one of the three
remaining pieces of virgin forest in the
Red River basin.

WHEN THE Corps of Engineers held the
first land acquisition hearing some of
these people spoke out despite it not being
their land that was to be taken. When
Justice Douglas walked through the upper
gorge some spoke out for the land when
other Powell Countians picketed the affair.

Now that all the North Fork is to be
condemned for the dam, they stand
steadfasz opposed. If it is true that Clay
City is being held hostage to insure the
dam‘s construction, then North Fork
families are innocents convicted and
awaiting the gas chamber.

One young woman has taken her family
to the American Indian Movement trials to
share in the common plight of disen-
franchisement from the land. But if there
is an actual right to private property and
selfdetermination, why should it be public
policy to turn out these few who have
exercised its tenets so simply for so long?

 

Tim Murphy is a member of the Red River
Defense Fund and a long-time opponent of
the Red River dam.

First impressions

Student advisers guide incoming freshmen
through initial encounter with University

Nine student advisers will form
first impressions of UK for most
members of this year's freshman
class of 6.000 at Summer Ad-
vrsrng Conferences.

“We look for Olvel‘sny among
advisers and for students who are
interested in other students,"
said Ann Moore, advising con—
ference graduate assistant.
Moore and George Dexter, ad-
vising conference director, chose
this year‘s staff.

“POTENTIAL advisers do not
have to think UK is the greatest
place to go to school, but we do
not choose people who generally
have a pessimistic view of higher
education,” said Moore. This
year there were 124 applications

for the nine advising positions

Advisers are paid $1.30 per
hour and attend a two-week
training session in preparation
for the job. “We went to every
academic and administrative
office from President Singletary
to Joe Burch in Safety and
Security." said Debbie Carey, 3
transfer student and junior
English major

Each adviser participates in
one session which only students
attend so the freshmen will feel
completely free to ask questions.
“We are generally asked
questions about parking and
bicycles,“ said Jim Harralson,
president of Kappa Alpha
fraternity and student senator-at-
large.

“WE GIVE the incoming
students good information but
they don‘t seem as interested as 5

they should be,“ said Shelly
Griffith, a sophomore and
Student Government‘s com

missroner of the physical en«
vironment. “It might be better
just to let people come down and
register and then give them
another day so it won‘t be so
long."

“All of the advisers are very
different people, but we are the
same in that we are open-
minded," said Nancy Hickam, a
pre-med senior. “We differ in
age, majors, interests and in our
opinion of the University," she
said. The advising conference
runs July 1~August 2.

Fewer freshmen applying
for fall admission to UK

By BECKY HUMPHREYS
Kernel Staff Writer

UK will not I'CJGCI a significant
number of freshman applicants
this fall, despite the current
national trend to do so.

Keller Dunn. associate dean of
admissions, said the decrease in
freshmen enrollment is due to
fewer freshman applicants, not
more university rejections.

III‘NN AND Hay Cum-
berledge, assistant registrar,
both stressed the fact that UK
accepts all in-state applicants
who are high school graduates.
()ut~of—state applicants must be
high school graduates with at

least a “C“ average and meet
certain standards on their ACT
scores to be admitted.

the Kentucky Council of
Higher Education requires that
each freshman class have no
more than 20 per cent out—of-state
students.

Dunn also pointed out that
because of the decrease in the
college-aged population, there
are less young people attending
college while a greater propor-
tion of their population attends
college than ever before.

'I‘Hh‘ NATIONAL enrollment
picture differs somewhat from
UK’s situation. A circular

released by the National
Association of State Universities
and Land Grant Colleges
(NASULGC) in May said more
freshmen apply to colleges while
fewer are accepted

Dunn and NASULGC both
indicated that northern schools
are generally more expensive,
more selective and thus tend to
adhere to enrollment quotas.
Southern schools, however, show
decreasing enrollments.

UK HAS NO eni-oument quota,
other than those within some
schools in the University (College
of Education, Allied Health) who
set certain criteria for admission.
