Used to it or not, many
doctors want nothing to do
with transsexual surgery
because of increased
malpractice claims.

That’s why the UK Medical
Center doesn’t touch such
cases anymore.

This brings us to Heather B.
Lenn (aka Hamid Laymon),
who mderwent sex-change
surgery at the University
Hospital on Jan. 24, 1972.
Lenn died three weeks later
from massive pulmonary

Love means never having to say...

One Sunday afternoon in
15158, daddies all across the
nation were watching the
New York Jets playing the
Oakland Raiders. They were

oornmentary

probably telling their kiddies
that Heidi would be on just as
soon as the ball game was
over.

But with New York behind
and only seconds to go, the
network decided to pre-empt
the ball game and let Heidi
run as scheduled.

You've probably guessed
the result. The Jets scored
two touchdowns in the waning
seconds and won, without the
TV viewers.

Now. the people in charge
of network programming
have never been overly-
concerned about insuring
domestic tranquility. Their
prime concern is selling air
time to the highest bidder.

 

 

This has caused a great war
among the networks for the
eye of the viewing public.

Tuesday night was no
exception. Coverage of the
1977 AllStar game began at
8215. At nine, before the game
could even get started, ABC
scheduled the movie Love
Story.

While I was just settling
down to the game, my wife
announced she would rather
watch the movie “So I can cry
a lot.”

I said it before. Network
programmers don't care
much about insuring
domestic tranquility or the
wear and tear on the TV knob
caused by changing channels
some thirty times in a two-
hour period.

It seems that they are
aiming at that vast. un-
touched source of advertising
funds: the lawyers.

The US. Supreme Court
recently said that advertising

by lawyers is acceptable.
immediately a Versailles
lawyer placed classified ads
for uncontested divorces.

Can you imagine the effect
of such national advertising?
When shows on two networks,
each appealing to a different
audience, are aired, the
chances are that some
husband-wife teams will be
upset, whatever is playing on
their set.

So by running ads for no-
fault diva'ces on both net-
works, the chances of finding
someone mad enough to get
one are tremendous.

This, in the eyes of some.
will mark a sorry state of
affairs for the legal
profession. But, being a
future member of that sect, I
can only say, “Love means
never having to...”

 

Bruce W. Singleton is a third-
year law student. His column
appears every week.

Board requests budget increase

if you don‘t think it takes
big bucks to run this
University, then consider the
total budget request made by
President Otis A. Singletary
and the Board of Trustees
Tuesday.

For 1978-79, they‘re calling
for $251 million (an increase
of $32 million over the present
budgeti. They want $275
million for the fiscal year
after that.

State appropriations make
up less than half of the total
budget.

“(The budget) is not a
Sears Roebuck shoparound

catalog, there is a critical
need for this." Singletary
said.

The request will filter
through the Council on Higher
Education for review before
going to the state legislature
next month.

The Board also okayed a $4
million proposal to expand
the Student Center by 80,000
square feet.

If the project is approved
by the council. student ac-
tiv ity fees will increase 83 per
cent during the regular
term—from $12 to $22.

Summer fees will jump from
$6 to $11.

The increased fees will help
finance the sale of revenue
bonds.

Jack C. Blanton, vice
president for business affairs,
said a student-staff com-
mittee survey conducted last
year indicated support for the
project.

"It was the committee’s
finding that about 80 per cent
of the student body favored
expansion and were willing to
pay an increased activity fee
to finance it,“ he said.

Class samples 'The Joy of Wine’,

urges first-hand involvement

By MARIE MITCHELL
Editor in Chief

Although Kentucky can
hardly be considered in the
"wine belt“ there are still
many natives who enjoy
drinking the spirits.

For those who want to
expand their knowledge
beyond either liking or
disliking particular brands.
Lexington Mall‘s Campus on
the Mall offers 3 “Joy of
Wine“ class for the third time
beginning July 27.

Gary Kelley. a “self-
taught" wine snob and sales
manager for a local liquor
distributor. will be sharing
samples of wines from the six

major wine countries
(France. Germany. Italy,
Spain. Portugal and the

L'.S.-—especially California).

Kelley's method of teaching
deals with incorporating
discussion, films about
producing countries and
grape varieties and first-hand
involvement (like tasting).

“A person can sit and read
about wines but in order to
grasp the true benefit of it.
one should taste as well."
Kelley says.

During the four-week. $50
course. students sample 24
different wines. Scorecards
rating wines on color, clarity,
bouquet and brilliance are
kept. Whatever is left over
after the initial sampling is
polished off at the end of each
session

“This really helps to losen
up people," Kelley says. “At
first students are quiet and
stiff-collared. but they open
up and socialize at the end of
class.“

A wide variety of people
enroll in the class, Kelley
says. There are professors
and college students;
nquhytes and connoiseurs:
owners and employees of
liquor stores and restaurants.

“It‘s not really complicated
at all.“ Kelley says. “All
wines have certain charac-
teristics. Learning to
distinguish between them can
beassimpleor difficult as the
person wants to make it.”

But wine tasting isn't all
that Campus on the Mail has
to offer.

Since its origin in October
as a part of the Lexington
Education Systems (which is
also behind Kentucky
Business College and Fugazzi
College plus vocational ex-
tensions in other cities).
Campus on the Mall has
presented a variety of op—
portunities for people to learn
for leaming's sake.

Coordinator Bill Dickens
says their objective is to go to
the people and offer an ex-
citing educational program to
meet certain needs not
fulfilled in other ways.

“Reading a book isn’t the
same as actually getting
involved in a project,“
Dickens says. ”We offer
programs where people can

gain self enrichment and
enjoy themselves."

Classes are planned on a
“by guess and by gosh"
approach, Dickens says.
“Most classes are designed to
be self-taught but we bring in
an expert in the field and
incorporate multi—media
learning."

This means using a variety
of materials and equipment
(like books. audio and video
tapes, instructors and visual
aids) to get across ideas and
concepts.

Comprising the list to date
are classes such as tennis
(rules. styles, strategies);
communicating successfully
(improving verbal delivery
and eliminating em—
barrasing “uhms“); speed
reading (read more in less
time); and negotiating
successfully (learning to be a
and

winner in business
personal affairs).
All classes are short-

ranged because “we don‘t
want to prolong them and
make them tiresome."
Dickens says. “This doesn't
mean we cram information
into unrealistic time periods
because those who enroll
have a genuine interest and
want to learn.“

Feedback from former
students has been im-
pressive. Dickens says. “Our
major problem has been
finding compatible times with
people interested in the
classes and just letting people
know we exist.”

Plenty of business

Lawyers offer free legal services

By JENNIFER GREER '
Kernel Staff Writer

Editor‘s note: This is the last
in a series on legal services.

During its first three
montts of operation, Central
Kentucky Legal Services,
Inc., has encountered a
favorable response from
clients who qualify for its
services

The federally—funded, non-
profit law firm, at 201 W.
Short St., provides free legal
aid and representation in civil
cases for those who are
determined “poor" by
federal income guidelines (a
single person cannot earn
more than $2,970 yearly and a
family of four’s income must
not exceed $5,850).

“We certainly have more
clients than we can handle,"
said Director Jerry Smith.
“We operate by appointment
only, although we try to
handle emergencies im-
mediately. Right now we are
booked up several weeks in
advance.“

Smith said the biggest
problem so far has been no
shows. “People make ap-
pointments weeks in advance
and then when it’s time to
appear in court, they don’t
show up. We have no way of
knowing what is happening to
these people, whether they
get help elsewhere or do
without."

More than 65 per cent of the
cases already handled have
been disolutions and Smith
said he thinks this represents
a backlog. The firm abo
handles casrs of property
damage. debt collection,
personal injury. bankruptcies
and class action suits in—
volving federal agencies that
deal with the poor.

“There is no fee at all
here,” Smith said. “If clients
can pay court costs, which
usually mn about $55, they
do. Other than that our ser-
vices are free."

The $194,000 budget is
provided by Legal Services
Corp, which was established
by Congress to administer
federal funds for such
programs.

Legal Aid, which provides
services for the poor in
criminal cases, is sponsored
by the Urban County
Governmentand the state. As
such, the two agencies do not
compete for clients with each
other or private attorneys.

-,.< ..44».o....--» . . .

Few students are poor
enough to qualify for either of
the free legal services. If
students need help or legal
advice, campus legal aid at
584784, might help. This is
strictly a referral service.

Secretary Becky Baker
said most students call to see
if “they need representation
in certain cases."

Most students last year
were referred to the Student
Government‘s (SG) in-house
lawyer who was local at-
torney Chester Care.

“Care came in once a week
for two hours and saw

students by appointment
only," said SG President Jim
Newberry. “He gave free
legal advice and referred
students to attorneys who
spcecialized in their par-
ticular problem. but did no
legal work and did not
represent any students."
Baker said she also
referred students to the
Human Rights Commission,
Consumer Hotline, Ap-
palachian Research and
Deferse Fund and the state
Attorney General’s office.
depending upon the nature of
their problem.

Fleetwood Mac blends talent w'rth theatrics

theatrics in which a group of
'lieir musical stature. needn't
indulge,

The core of the act. and
especxally the music, is the
band's impeccable rhythm
section drummer Mick
Floetwood and bassist John
McV’ie who both go back to
the band‘s British-blues in
ception. The intensity of their
musicianship bars any stage
antics. how ever Fleetwood in

band also dates back to lean
days in England. stands
sedately emconced between
sets of keyboards and hovers
maternally over the
microphone while adding her
essential vocals.

But it is Stevie Nicks and
Lindsey Buckingham. the two
American newcomers, who
extend themselves out to the
audience the same way their
addition to the band
broadened Fleetwood Mac’s
appeal across two continents.
Lead guitarist Buckingham
was the most pleasant sur-
prise Saturday night, his
studio-clean guitar licks and
amazing vocak were crucial
to the band’s ability to come
alive in the concert hall.

Precision
’Beyond the Fringe’
hits nail on the head

(Editor's note: Neal Fugate
is a theatre major at Whittier
College in California.)

By NEAL FUGATE
Kernel Reporter

A few months ago I at-
tended a performance of
We're All 80105 On This Bus
at the University of Southern
California. Being a big fan of

 

review

Firesign Theatre, I was very
interested in how its material
would be altered to give the
same effect on stage. As it
happens, the material was
altered, and so was the effect.

Beyond The Fringe (the
secmd offering in the UK
Summer Repertory series)
isn’t Firesign Theatre, but
the same kind of intellectual
pinball found on the British
comedy team’s albums is
present in this impressive
production.

Basically, the play is a
hodgepodge of short skits
which, seen together, leaves
the audience with a very
skeptical view of society.
Politics, Television, Radio,
Religion—in short, all the
things that make life in-
teresting and bearable-are
attacked in sarcastic and
indirect ways.

There are no amwers to the
problems brought up by the
skits, they just point them out
and give the audience a
chance to laugh at them-
selves, or people they
recognize on stage.

Most impressive in the
production are the per-

 

formers themselves. Under
the direction of Wallace
Briggs, the actors give an
energetic interpretation of
the script written by British
comedy writers Alan Ben-
nett, Peter Cook, Jonathan
Miller and Dudley Moore.

Wayne Sigler, whose
musical talents are
highlighted a number of
times throughout the show,
breaks up the audience with a
combination of excellent
pia noplaying and fun comedy
bits.

The rest of the cast is also
excellent and have many
opportunities to exercise
their talents in diction and
dialect in the fast—moving
skits.

Precison is the name of the
game and without the well-
oiled movement found in this
show. it would have fallen on
its face.

The only aspect of the show
which slowed it down was the
scene changes The set is a
sort of surreal insect head
which watches as the action
takes place. It proves to be
interesting visually, but the
scenes changes always take
place the same way.

Lights fade down and then
come up again on the same
thing again and again. It
might haveimproved the flow
of the scenes if different
methods had been employed
to get the actors where they
were going This is minor, as
I said, and does not seriously
hamper the show.

If you're interested in
seeing things in a new, fun
and professionally done way,
be sure to catch Beyond The
Fringe this month at the
Guignd Theatre.

Fleetwood Mac sells out

Continued from page 7

The quality of his band
permits him to bop around
the stage with great en-
thusiasm. Considering his
style a nd his new directions in
music (two of his tunes were
used by Barbra Streisand in A
Star '5 Born). I predict he’ll
be doing Las Vegas within
two years.

Fleetwood Mac brought
unprecedented class and
talent to an arena which is
gradually putting Lexington
on the concert map. The
ticket sales alone are
staggering“2l,000 multiplied
by the average $8 ticket price
produces a blurred vision of
Lexington finally hitting the
big time.

Beneficiary of 'The luck of the Slew’

By DAVID HIBBITTS
Kernel Staff Writer

The euphoria of Seattle
Slew’s Triple Crown sweep
would seem to be fading for
co-owner Karen Taylor, one
of the most easy-going suc-
cess stories of the 1970's.

Karen, her husband Mickey
and Slew’s co-owner Jim Hill
were in attendance fo
