Texas transfer

Former J-school head

shapes up department

on Austin campus

By MARY ANN BUGIART
Kernel Staff Writer

Dr. Dwight Teeter, the man
responsible for getting UK‘s jour-
nalism school accreditation back, is
now at the University of Texas
trying to do the same thing for its
journalism department.

Teeter, who left his position as
director of the journalism school in
May, is now the ciairman d UT’s
journalism department. Of his work
on accreditation, he says he feels
he’s made good progress, but that it
has taken much longer than he
anticipated Accreditors are ex-
pected at UT Dec. 7.

As for his other duties, Teeter
says, “I do the same kind of thing
here thatl did there (at UK), and l

like the cianges from day b day.
Even though I may notlike all of the
changes, its never drill. The faculty
is very friendly and tolerant of
either me or the fact that I am a
newcomer.”

He added that his one biggest
frustratim is that he has not been
able to get out arri see the state. “I
had pnaimonia for threeweeks, and

United Way
gets check
from Haggin

Haggin Hall’s Jim Williams
presented the United Way can-
mittee with acheck for $2,500 at last
Wednesday’s fund (hive banquet at
the Hyatt House.

The money was raised by the
residents of thatda'm ina campaign
that inchded a raffle, a “floor
contest" and a benefit dance in the
Student Center ballroom.

Haggin’s contribution brought to
$105,409 the amount raised by
studerts, faculty and staff at ‘UK,
making the University the largest
group contributor to the United Way
for the sixth year in a row.

that caused part of my semack.”

Teeter’s main goal is placing
studentsinjobsaftergradrntim. “If
we can’t place every student that
wants a job, then we might as well
shut down.

“My views are similar to those of
my former cdleagues at UK; we are
not interested in news consumers,”
he said, but rather making jour-
nalism students news producers.

“We‘ve had good success with
placement, so we plan to keep going.
Here (in Arutin), we now have more
editorial newsjdis open than we can
fill. My pay-off is when I can get
students out and they do a good job .”
Teeter added that he had just
received word from a former student
who had won the Pulitzer Prize this
year.

The journalism school at UT is l

much larger than UK’s, but Teeter
said it is not the largest in the
country, as many people seem to
believe. UT‘s program has 500
classes, but only 35 or 40 are in the
junior or senior level, and, ac-
cording to Teeter, that is what
makes it smaller than other
univ ersit ies.

Teeter said he hopes to get out
from behind his desk soon and meet
more students and faculty. He said
his biggest concern before going to
UT was that as big as the school is, it
would be impersmal. Brit once he
got there, he said he was pleasantly
surprised to find it isn’t.

Teeter has mingled among the
students at least once when he was
chosen to help coach the football
team for a day. He erplained that
two or three professors are chosen
for every hone game, to spend the
day with the team.

“We ate lunch with them and
spent halftime in the locker room.
That day we beat Virginia, 68 to 0.
Fred Akers, the coach, told me that
if I hadn’t messed them up, they
would‘ve run the score up further.”

Besides h's ptsition at UT, Teeter
is wa'kirg on the final draft d a
second edition of a communications
law tertbook he wrote with Dr.
Harold Nelsm of fire University of
Wisconsin.

He said he hopes to meet with
Nelsm at the end of December to
fin'sh the final draft. “I’ve had
trouble getting at it. it’s been slower
than I had anticipated."

He added that there is not much
new ga'ng on in the area it libel, but
thelaw can be more damaging to the
press than ever. “Some papers just
can’t afford to have a suit against
them; it’s expersive even if they
don’t go to court. "

Teeter mentioned several times
that he misses UK, and the students
and faculty. “The journalism school
(UK’s) has excellent support up
there, and the one iere does, too I
guessthatit willjusttakemeawhile
to get acquainted and to get the
special cmtacts that I had up
there"

Needs volunteers

Book swap may go on despite debt

By MICHELE HALL
Kernel Reporter

Despite the fact that the Student
Government's book exchange
program went. into debt last year,
coordinators are willing to try it
again this year because a nrrrnber of
students have requested the service.

SG sonata Mark Benson, vrho is in
charge oftie program, said, "(in the
whole, we handled 3,200 books last
year and saved the students
thorsancb of dollars."

The book exchange is meant to be

an alternative to the camprs and
local bookstores fa‘ buying and
selling used textbooks. Generally,
students can get a greater msh
return on their books sold thrrugh
the book exchange.

To make tire project a reality this
year, Benson said, studerts need to
respond now. He said students are
needed to volunteer to help with the
program.

Benson said if the rspome is
large enough and the service is
implemented this year, several
improvements will be made to

Water line tests
delay completion
of utilities trench

By DEBBIE McDANIEL
Kernel Staff Writer

The new campus “boardwalk"
extending from Funkhorse' Drive to
Euclid Avenue will be complete in
about three weeks, miversity of-
ficials said.

“As of Nov. 1, the project was 65
percent complete,” said UK Design
and Constructim Director Clifton
Marshall. Gary Cunningham,
construction engineer, estimated the
project at 72-73 percent complete.

Work on the walkway-utility
trench began July 5, bit a com-
bination d unforeseen problem and
bad weather has resulted in three
extensions of construction com-
pletion dates. Tie original com-
pletion date was Nov. 15.

Cunningham said the present
delay involves the water line, used
for air conditirning, which lead to
the new Fine Arts Building, Thirty-
six hours are necessary to prepare
the pipes for testing, drring which
they are filled with water. He said
the contractors are now dolrg this
and that if the pipes are sound, they
will be irsulated Friday.

There were p‘obiems obtaining
bolts to connect the existirg utility
lines near tie library with the new
trench lines, said Fred Walker (1
White, Walker and McReynolds
project engineers.

The system of a boardwalk-utility
trench is unique because of its
versatility, Marshall said

“You get utility lines—steam,
electric, and air conditioring line—
through a central point where they
can serve as many buildings as
possible,“ he said.

“This trench gives us a north to
south tie-in between Funkhouser
Drive and Euclid Aveue, and it
goes over the east-to-west trmnel (1
utility lines near the main library,”
Marshall said.

Joining the north-south ling and
east-west lines simplifies the utility
system, allowirg access to the entire
system at me point at campis,
Marshall said.

The fourton precat concrete
slabs, 15 feetinlength and five or six
feet in wrdth, cover the pipes and

streamline the program. These

include using computers fit in

ventories and hiring only two
cashiers.

Students can also save time using
the book exchange, according to
Benson. There will be several pick-
up points around campus for books,
and according to Benson, when a
student canesin to prrchase a book,
the process should take less than five
mmmm.

"The idea is to save the students
time and money, something that
cant be done standing in a line at

lines but are easily removable for
repair work

“This is are of the first trenches (i
this type that’s been bu'lt," mid
Cunningham, “Other universities
are lookirg at the project and are
interested in it.”

Business Affairs Vice President
Jack Blanton said, “The work-
manshiplooks good, and theconcept
works out well,”

The cracks between the cmcrete
slabs will be filled with special
caulking when the temperature
reaches 40 degrees or above, said
Walker. The polyurefliane material
the contractors plan to use won’t
solidify unless the temperature is
above 40, so the cradrs will [robably
remain open all winter, Marshall
said.

Neither Walker nor Blanton
foresees any prrblem with accidents
involving the open cracks in the
sidewalk, becarse, they said, the
inch wide space between each slab is
too small to catch a heel in. Blanton
said he wasn’t aware that any ac-
cidents had occurred and added that
leaving the cracks open doesn't
violate any safety regrlatiors.

New light fixtures, a handrail m
sloped walkway sections and ex-
tensions ri library and classroom
building plazas are planned as soon
as the rest of the concrete slabs,
which are already manufactured,
are placed on the walk.

Sodding and landscaping of the
muddy areas edg'ng the walk will
have to wait until] spring, Marshall
said. Plann'ng is continuing on a
landscaped walkway intersection
west of the new Fine Arts Building.
The intersection will contain ben-
ches, a statue (r scripture, and
trees.

Marsimll said, “We estimate the
total final cost of the project at
approximately $411),000.

Both Marshall and Cunn'ngham
appreciate the understanding and
maturity shown by students and
faculty members during the con
struction activity.

“For the complexity of the job,
we’ve had excellent support from
the students, especially the ban-
dicapped," Cunningham said.

one of the local bodrstores.” Benson
said.

“Each student would save from 10
to 20 percent on each book, which
may not souni like a lot. But com-
pare it to the fact that if he (a
student) were to take the bodr badr
to the bodrstore where he bought it,
hestanrk to loseso to 60 rercent on a
new book and 30 to 50 percent on a
used text.

“The student can only benefit
from the use of the book exchange, ”
Benson said.

Books won

without some volunteers

The future of a project that has shown much
promise is in jeopardy at UK. Unless volunteers
come forward, the Student Govemmert book
exchange will not operate next week.

Without the book exchange, UK students Will
be left at the mercy of the three—oops, two—~-
bookstores near campts. With that kind of
competition between the canmercial dealers,
it’s urgent that this strong alternative be con-

tinued.

The exchange can save students a good deal of
money when it comes time to trade in textbooks.

20 percent of the cat of the book by buying
through the exchange.

tentous because it's so imprecise. In
fact, the trouble that a (resident is in
when floating in the greasy waters of
a full-fledged nadir is that he gets
picked apart for what he and other
presidents are praised for when
floating on an apogee.

Thus the complaints wer Carter
surrounding h'mself with men and
women who, we‘re given to un-
derstand, are provincial Georgia
clods.

John Kennedy was admired for his
Massachusetts Irish Mafia, and here
was a time when you could read
about how Nixm’s bright, young,
Southern Californian men were
bringing a fresh western je ne sais

They‘ve got just as much je ne sais

things, you can‘t see it during a
nadir.

Too ma ny ideas

They’re pidring on Jimmy frr
submitting too many ideas to
Congress at one time and, as anyone
familiar with that institution will tell
you, even a single idea can be no
more than those 535 geniuses can
handle.

FDR said, “It is a little but dif—
ficuit in our system of govemment to
pursue two equally important things
with equal emphasis at the same
time. That is darned hard."

Yet Roosevelt himself scored
some of his most important
legislative succms when he was
throwing a lot of thirgs at Congress
at once. At best, FDR coild seem
four times larger than life, the
personification of the word
leadership, because he invited the
country to do what it wanted to do

simply being lucky, but of knowing
when he was lucky.

That's called timirg, am this isn’t
a particularly good moment. Carter
can't ask the counry to do what it
wants to because it doesn’t know

what it wants to do. The program he
got elected on last autumn turned
out to be conventimal sloganeering.
There was no mandate and no way
to manufacture one.
But the days will pass, something
will suggest itself, or some happy

oppcrtunity to seem m5 idential and
the first nadir will be over.

Another Normal adventure

Speedo's X-mas

By. HARRY B. MILLER lll

Another in the continuing ad-
ventures of Speedo Normal, mild
mannered normal person from
Nowhere, USA.

"Speedo—Speedo dear. Let‘s go
out and do some Christmas shapping
today. The magic date is getting

 

growing

closer and closer and we don’t want
to be caught in the last minute
rush.“

“Last minute rush?" Speedo
asked, “Dec. 25 doesn’t come for
another four weeks!”

“I know, but I’d really like to get
started on my shopping There are
so many people andl jist don‘t have
any idea what to get for anyone.”

So Speedo and his girlfriend,
Speedia, traveled out to the local
shopping mall.

“Can ya: 5% it, Speeda?”

“Yes. It’s mly another block
away."

Three hours later, the two made it
to the shopping mall entrance. After
drifting aimlessly for a while, they
entered the closest department store

“Oh look. Speed.." Speedo hated
that nickname,“there’s a Kermit
The Frog."

“1 hate that nickname. What’s a
Hermit The Frtg anyway?"

“It’s Kermit The Frog. Why it's
simply the hatst item on the
Christmas market. Everyone is
trying to get one. And they are so
hard to find. Why, there are hardly
any left in town. Mister? Oh,
Mister?"

“Yes ma‘m," arswered die clerk

“How much are your Kermit The
Frogs?”

“Well ma’m. make that Kermit
The Frog. It’s the last one in stock.
And just about every retail store in
town has called is askirg for any
Kermits we can spare. It seems
we‘re the oriy place in town with any

“ Oh Speed, Speed—you know what

“A Rotco Jiffy Taco Toaster? And
I hate that nidma..."

“A Kermit The Frog! l”

“How couldI ever have guesed.”
Speedo reluctantly forked over the
cash for the last Kermit in town.
Damn corporate capitalism, he
thought. Facing shortages in the
consumer market by under
production. Now, undoubtedly, the
price of Kermits will skyrocket and
people will be put on back orders fa'

Christmas would now fall in March!

“Now Spud, dear..."

Speedo interupted with a loui
clearing of the tlroat.

“I mean Speech—what do you
want it! Christmas?”

“Wlut do I wont?" be ponders!

answered “What do lwant?”

“Of course, dear. How could I

pecting to get cut of wanting? The
whole event becomes an excme fu-

they wouldn’t ntrmally buy during
the rest of the year!"

“You‘re spoiling my whole
Christmas,” Speedia sobbed

“I'm spa’ling your Christmas?
What about me?”

Speedia began to moan softly,
turning her head to are side,
avoiding Speedo's glance. And
Speed (whoop—Speech) hates to
see any woman cry.

“Listen. I‘m sorry. Let’s forget it
1 was wrong.” Spealo was being
disgustingly apologetic, but why the
hell not. If that’s what Christmas is
about, so be it.

“I’ll tell you what. Let's go over to
the book section and I'm sure I’ll
find sanething I’d really like fir
Christmas.”

They walked tlrmgh the bodr
section, lmking at the categoria.

“Let’s see," Speedo thought out
loud, “we have ‘h'sta'y,’ ‘arts,’
‘sports,’ ‘classil’...”

“0h, Speedo. Look." Speedia’s
demeanor was remarkably im-
proved. “Right over there, between

Speedo was brightened by
Speedia’s charge in mod until he
saw the new section. He coultki’t
help but twinge in pain.

“‘Watergate’?”

“Oh yes And look. Tlu latest book
is entitled I Installed the San

“Sure does," Speedo replied with

Paying plasma draws more students

By CHRIS BLAIR
Kernel Reporter

Only 119 persms gave blood
yesterday in Student
Government's Central
Kentucky Blood Bank (CK~
BB) donor drive held in the
Complex Commons. The goal
for the threeday drive, which
ends today, is 200 donors per
day.

Meanwhile, Plasma
Alliance, 3 commercial
plasma center in Cardinal
Valley shopping center, was
packed with people.
Operations manager Tyon
Foster said 51) percent of the
paid donors were UK
students.

CKBB accepts voluntary
donations, but local radio
station WKQQ aided the drive
by giving away albums to
donors. Families of donors are
also entitled to a one year’s
blood coverage. During the
year, if the need for blood
arises they can get blood in an
unlimited amount at any
medical facility in the United
States.

The lack d CKBB donors is
not a result of apathy, said
CKBB technical director
Patty Bolin. “Students are
more aware of Plasma
Alliance because PA can
afford to advertise.” Bolin
said. CKBB is a nonprofit
organization and doesn't
advertise.

Tom Watts, CKBB ad-
ministrator, described
commercial, plasma centers
as dargerous to the blood
donor as well as to the
recipient. ”They are legal,"
he said. “Although the Food
and Drug Administration has
made a move to eliminate
these centers, all they can do
is increase regulations."

The potential danger. said
both Foster and Watts, is the
reinfusion of the red blood
cells. Said Watts, “Rein fus ion
of the wrong cells could cause
immediate death or per-
manent renal kidney
damage."

Foster explained that a
two-check system limits
possibilities of wrong rein-
fusions. The system corsists
of a number placed on the
package of blood and on the
donor’s chart.

According to Tony Pa tIon
manager a" PA. each first»
time donor is examined by a
physician and fills out a
medical history question-
naire to determine donor
acceptability. The donor is re

examined twice a year and 1

may sell blood twice a week.

Since PA sells plasma to
pharmaceutical companies.

the center is able to give;

donorsa $10 bonus for every
two pints of bloat.

“We at one time paid
donors," Bolin said,"but it

became unsafe because
people would lie about their
medical history in order to
get paid We now accept only
\oluntary donations; this
lessens the instances of
hepatitis."

Regular donors at (‘KBB
tar. give blood only once
every eight weeks. said
\i‘atts,"fhey are required to
file a medical history and are
examined by a physician

 

prior to each donation. We
don‘teven accept dmors with
colds.“

Foster said he doesn‘t fear
people lying about their
medical history. “ I‘ve been in
this business for eight years
and I can usually tell when
someone is lying. We won‘t
accept anyone with needle
scars or someone we Stspect
being addicted to drugs We
take clean-cut donors "
