On any given fall. winter or spring

televisions and radios in Kentucky and
surrounding states are tuned to the

staggering $4.5 million for the rights to
the 1978 college basketball regular
season and tournament. Similarly, this
year ABC is paying $530,000 to the
college football teams it televises
nationally. Both networks. though.
will make a handsome profit from the
advertisers which, in turn. profit from
consumers. And by watching the
games, the consumers justify the
networks' advertising rates. It‘s a
system of interlocking wheels powered
by consumer dollars.

UK
Sports

No other busisness is so closely
related to the UK athletic program
as the broadcasting industry. More

thananyotherbudnesses,the-

broadcasters see UK as a revenue
source. .
But the relationship between

intercollegiate sports programs and
broadcasters is unique — the
colleges look to the broadcasters as
a scuree of money for tight athletic
budgets.

In this article, the second of a
two-part series, Kernel staff writers
Jay Fossett and Salt Tarhan
examine the relationship between
UK and local broadcasters.

 

UK‘s basketball and football — are on
the air.

Large amounts of money are
involved in the broadcasting of UK
basketball and football. both from
local and national sources. UK's
regular broadcasters pay UK more
than $225,000 and the broadcasters, in

. turn, make over $l million from the
games.

But UK is not unique. The amount

of money involved in national'

intercollegiate sports broadcasting is
surprisingly large.
Last year NBC paid the National

money for national television
exposure (last year the basketball
Wildcats were telecast nationally in
two regular season games and in the
NCAA Basketball Tournament/, it
receives most of its broadcasting
income from local sources.

Radio broadcasting is controlled by
Jim Host and Associates, which
annually pays $83,500 to UK‘s
Athletic Association. The Lexington-
based public relations firm holds the
radio broadcasting rights for all UK
football and basketball games until
I980.

UK's radio sports network is the
largest independent college sports
network in the country and
commercial time during UK football
and basketball broadcasts is
considered the best in the state. A
recent poll in the Lexington and
Louisville markets showed that 8|
percent of all the radios turned on were
tuned to UK sports.

The radio network contains “4
stations — including two 50.000 watt
stations. WCKY in Cincinnati and
WHAS in Louisville — which
broadcast the late afternoon and night
games. The network reaches stations
in‘30 to 40 states. and there are stories
of listeners as far away as Honolulu.

Host said companies often buy
commercial time on the broadcasts
just to be associated with UK sports.
“It‘s plain good business because of the
local feeling for the Cats,“ he said.

Host said 20 minutes of
commmercial time are allotted for
football games and l6-l8 minutes for
basketball games but refused to reveal
the network's advertising rates.

However, a spokesman for the
Kentucky Coal Association, an
advertiser on the network, said the

Dean Burch explains administration’s

action taken against the 'Lexington 11’

By BRIDGET McFARLAND
Staff Writer

lnsinuations that UK and the CIA
were involved in a conspiracy was
called “absurd” by Dean of Students
Joe Burch at last night‘s Student
Government Senate meeting.

“One can disagree with my
enforcement but to claim this is a
conspiracy is absurd,” he said.

Burch was speaking to the Senate in _

state

response to a resolution passed at the
last Senate meeting which asked Burch
and President Otis Singletary to
“publicly explain the actions of the UK
administration in regards to the case of
the ‘Lexington Eleven.‘ “

Twelve persons were arrested at the
April speech of CIA Director Adm.
Stansfield Turner for disrupting a
public meeting. All twelve were found
guilty and given stiff fines; eleven were
given jail sentences. They were

protesting alleged CIA involvement in
Iranian political and military affairs.

Burch said he has been available to
discuss the issue and has made several
public statements concerning the
subject. He added that he had never
been invited to speak to the Senate and
thus had never refused an invitation.

In regard to the Iranian students
Burch quoted the Student Code of The

SIGN-CARRYING PARENTS protesting what they
said is a lack of discipline at the Phelps school turned back
buses at the school yesterday, and only about mo of the
l.l70 students attended. Principal Herschel Morgan said.

LarryKaffer. president of the local PTA and a member of
a committee appointed by Concerned Citizens of Phelps to
seek improvements, said parents would picket again today at
the school in eastern Pike County.

Parents at Concerned Citizens meetings have expressed
concern about what they say is a lack of supervision,

violence among students, and unsanitary conditions at the
school, Kaffer said.

MISSOURI STATE SOCIAL WORKERS joined police
in the serach yesterday for several elderly patients missing
from a suburban nursing borne described by an investigator
as “horrible. . .just filthy."

A search of the grounds started when relatives of the
missing patients told police they were worried because they
could not contact the home during the Thanksgiving
holidays. Police found the home unlocked and the patients
and staff gone.

Officials were not certain how many patients were

‘ missing. State officials said Sunday night that “i0 or l2” of
I) missing patients had been located in other nursing or
boarding homes. but Manchester police said it was unclear
how many patients were at the home when it was closed.

NEW YORK TIMES reporter Myron A. Father and his
newspaper were denied Supreme Court review yesterday of
their contempt convictions for refusing to surrender
confidential files.

The nation‘s highest court turned its back to atgurnents by
Father and the Times that the contempt-of-coutt
convictions violated the Constitutuion's free~press
protection and a state reporters‘ shield law.

None of the court‘s nine justices went on record as

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL accused China yestrday
of systematically repressing political dissent through sbcial
censure. imprisonment, mental torture and execution since
the I949 takeover.

In its forst major report on China, the London-based
human rights group quoted official Chinese documents
indicating the number of people punished for straying from
official policy is in the millions.

Amnesty International, which advocates the release of
political prisoners everywhere and won the Nobel Peace
Prize in I977. said the report — "Political Imprisonment in
the People‘s Republic of China” ._ was the result of “several
years of intensive research.”

Amnesty said it sent a co y of the report in June to China‘s
ambassador to Sweden or correction or comment and
decided in August to publish the report when no reply was
received. China still has not responded. Amnesty said.

two spots per game and buys ads for all
eleven football games of the season.

Assuming the rate paid by the
Kentucky Coal Association is average,
Host and Associates derives about
$530,000 from advertisers on UK's ll
football and 26 regular season

network carries seperate coaches‘

Television broadcasting of UK's

state television stations. . WKYT,
Channel 27 in Lexington, is the
originating station of the football
network and WAVE. Channel 3 in
Louisville. is the base of the basketball

network.

According to Al Taylor. general
manager at WKYT, his station paid

football games and $5.000 apiece for

‘ four away games. This is only the

Taylor said WKYT's football
network is carried in every market in
Kentucky plus four additional states.
including stations in Huntington, W.

Taylor said WKYT sends the
football telecast to its network stations

San Francisco
mayor killed
in his city hall
offices

By SUSAN AGER

Associated Press Writer

SAN FRANCISCO — Mayor
George Moscone and Harvey Milk.
the city‘s first self-proclaimed
homosexual supervisor. were shot to
death yesterday in City Hall, and a
former city supervisor, who had
wanted his job back. was arrested 45
minutes later.

Dan White, 32, was booked for
investigation of the murders, which
stunned a city still numbed by the
suicide massacre in Guyana of more
than 900 member of the Peoples
Temple, based in San Francisco.

The former supervisor had
surrendered to police at a station eight
blocks from the murder scene.

Police and city officials said White,
who resigned from the Board of
Supervisors Nov. [0 then asked for his
seat back, was meeting with Moscone
in a back room of the mayor‘s office.
presumably begging to be
reappointed, when the II a.m.
shooting occurred.

Moscone had scheduled an “:30
a.m. news conference to announce
White‘s successor. Don Horanzy. who
was waiting in an outer office at the
ornate. domed City Hall when the
shots rang out.

“We heard shots but we were
unaware at the time that the shots
came from the room,” said Mel Wax,
Moscone‘s press secretary. One of the
mayor's secretaries walked to a
window, thinking the noise was a car
backfiring.

Moscone‘s bloody body was found
lying on the floor when the mayor‘s
fiscal adviser. Rudy Nothenbert.
walked in for an I l a.m. appointment.
Police said Moscone had been shot
three times. twice in theheadand once
in the left arm.

Was said White had appeared at the
mayor’s door about l0:40 a.m. asking

‘to see Moscone without an

appointment. He added, “I didn't want
them to see each other. i thought that
would be a bad scene."

The press secretary said that

Other topics warrent
Assembly's attention

When. the General Assembly convenes Dec. ll. its principal
charge from Lt. Gov. Thelma Stovall will be with taxes -— how to
cut them. Legislators will be confronted with a variety of proposals
on this current hot topic; such as the partial freeze on state property
taxes proposed by Stovall herself.

Special legislative sessions are supposed to be called for
emergencies and urgent problems, but the good conduct of the
governor (or acting governor) is really the only safeguard of that.

And while Stovall didn‘t really abuse the power by calling a
special session to lower the tax burden. it's not an issue that couldn‘t
be put off until later. It‘s even possible that a legislature with more
time to study the subject through interim committees could even do
a better job.

But the politics of necessity were enough to convince Stovall, a
gubernatorial candidate, to capitalize on the nationwide war
against taxes. It was an opportunity to get exclusive bragging rights
to an issue, and Stovall‘s political savvy is to be admired.

But it‘s a shame that in the rush to cut taxes. other subjects of
equal (if not urgent) importance are being passed by. Perhaps it‘s
still not too late for Gov. Julian Carroll. now that he‘s back in the
state (virtually imprisoned; he’s probably afraid to leave the state
again) to add some topics to an extended call of the special session.

One such item that has received frequent mention. including
comment from the Governor himself, is the need for including
guarantees of First Amendment protection for the press. Because of
recent Supreme Court decisions regarding search and seizure
restrictions and access to information. there’s a real need for a law
that spells out what the privileges the press really has.

Another subject would be the “fair-trade“ laws that bilk
Kentucky consumers who want to buy certain exotic luxuries of life.
like milk. These laws hike prices to unrealistic levels in an
unnecessary safeguard of competition. and could be quickly
abolished by the special session.

Also. the legislature could deliver a swift statement of
disapproval to similar proposed regulations for selling beer. The
suggestions would equalize prices in many areas ~ at artificially
higher levels — in a step to end bootleg sales. That job should be
done by the Alcoholic Beverage Control, not paid for by the
consumer. ‘

In fact. there are many things that can be done in the general
subject of alcohol. The drinking age could be lowered. a policy
toward liberalizing bar closing hours could be recommended. and
the legislature could finally grant approval for sales of alcoholic
beverage at the UK Student Center.

And while we‘re on the subject of impossibilities, the General
Assembly could follow the lead of other progressive states and
decriminalize marijuana.

After that. a committee could look into the effectiveness and
potential profits of marijuana as a cash crop see if there‘s
anything to what Gatewood Galbraith has been saying. It‘s worth a
look - Kentucky already maintains a tourist bureau in Europe and
has a movie commission to bring in film money. Marijuana revenue.
if the plant ever becomes legal. could dwarf income from tourists
and films.

But then. all this is probably a little too much to expect. Since it is
the holiday season. maybe we should merely be thankful that some
of the more noxious subjects aren't being considered by the
legislature.

There's no unending debate on the Equal Rights Amendment
including appetizing remarks about gay teachers and unisex toilets.
Bibles in classrooms aren‘t being discussed. and there won‘t be a
civil war over a proposal to institute collective bargaining for public
employees.

So be thankful for small favors. The special session could be
much worse. Still. there is one thing that could be improved: the way
special sessions are called.

The legislature should seriously consider ~ or at least begin
debate — on how to inject more accountability into the special
session process. The system of checks and balances can start to
break down with the current rules. as Stovall‘s parliamentary
legerdemain attests. and there should be more participation in how
the agenda is formulated. It‘s something worth considering while all
those “Aye“ votes are being jotted down for the tax-cut measures.

Punk: The ’new wave ’ of ra‘ck-n-roll

BY TONY BRIGGS

For the past few months, I have
been reading the articles that have
been printed on “New Wave.“ You
have laughed at punk. sneered at punk
and run your (“Your Love Is Like)
Nuclear Waste contest. I am tired of
this. so I have decided to write this
article. The Kernel has published their

opinion

 

 

opinion not knowing anything about
what they're writing.

In the Tuesday. Nov. I4 article by
Carolyn Conner. “The Punk Scene.“
she said she based her whole punk
concert experience on one night. In her
article she devotes less than three
paragraphs to the experience.

Dr. (Donald) Ivey (UK music
professor) was also very objective in
defending punk in the same article.
After only listening to one and a half
songs. Ive‘y seemed to associate
anyone listening to punk as a lunatic.
With his extensive knowledge of punk.
it leads one to believe that for a music
professor. he doesn‘t know what he is
talking about. Especially with his brief
experience.

 

 

 

W

 

When rock-n-roll first started it
wasn‘t played on the radio. It was the
outcry of the young. Rock was called
jungle music. indecent. People said it
would never catch on. but it did. and
flourished. Now in the 70's rock has
come to a standstill.

Pete Townshend of The Who isn't
screaming of his generation any more
Hendrix isn‘t blowing up his amps.
Bands today seem to have no purpose
but to sing wimp love songs and make
money. Most bands of today have
nothing to say. Anyone can take a
song like “Allison“ by Elvis Costello,
sing it like Linda Ronstadt and put it
on the radio. The question is does she
feel what she‘s singing or does shejust
“like“ the song?

In England some bands are
returning to the roots of rock-n-roll.
Bands that stay away from multiple
overdubbing and the like. Any band
can sound good on record by using
hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of equipment. These garage
bands use basic three-chord rock and
are called by most. Punk.

Punk is a name given bu the press to

a subculture of English rockers.
Individuality is the driving theme. All
“punk rockers“ are different. But all
share the basic thought that our
society. “our world.“ is fucked up!
They‘re angry about it and their music
is their way of expressing that anger.
When Johnny Rotten and the Sex
Pistols refused to sing with an
American accent and to tone down his
language on vinyl. it gave the punks a
symbol to rally to. In a matter of weeks
“Anarchy in the U.K.." the Punks first
single. went to number one. Following
it (was) “God Save the Queen.”
(which) also reached number one.
With two number one records. the Sex
Pistols were banned from playing I5 of
20 concert dates. Neither of their
records were ever played on the radio.
This is the kind of suppression punk

is against. With millions of people
liking the Sex Pistols. banning them
only gave the movement more power.
Punk became a cult of bonds and
young rockers. mainly between l4and
2| years of age. All wanted to meetthe

heads of the cult. the Sex Pistols.

 

The Pistols were managed by
Malcom McLearn, who owned a
clothes shop which specialized in
unusual clothing. Bondage wear.
leather, etc. For the punks it became a
common hang out in hopes of meeting
J . Rotten and Co. Thus the reason for
punks wearing chains, leather and way
out clothes. A very small percent of
punks have safety pins through their
nose or lip or wherever. The press are
the ones guilty for showing all punks
like that.

Punks are for'peace! In England, the

Teddy Bears, English versions of‘

rednecks, often went around beating
up the punks. After a while the punk
rocke "n order to defend themsefis’,
sta ‘ ting back. These incidents
were ‘ly publicized by the press,
thus fittibuting to the violent image of
the punks.

Punk is an attitude. Violence is all
around us and in each one of us. Punk
only satirizes that violence. '

Since the recent death of Nancy
Spungen. Sid Vicious' girl friend. and
Sid‘s subsequent arrest. it has been
drawn to the public eye. Being one of
the leaders of the punk movement. he
is being crucified by the press.

In the November issue of Rolling
Stone magazine. the facts in the case
are explained and it does bring out
some room for doubt in Sid't guilt.
Even if Sid is guilty. it makes no
difference because he is only one man
and to put down punk beard of the
transgressio of one is wrong. If

Dolly Part killed her boyfriend.
would people put down country
music?

Punk is a lot of things to a lot of
people. Whatever it is. it must be
judged on its own merits by each
individual. Don‘t take anyone‘s word
on what punk is. unless it‘s a punk!
There‘s much more that could be said.
but the poem below sums it up.

Pro-Life
philosophy
is Striving
to exceed
conditional
life values

BY KAY KAAK

The fact that abortion has become
an issue tells us that a lot of people
have lost their identity. their vision,
their hope and their sense of
belonging.

The Pro-Life woman does not see
her femalencss as a weakness or a
handicap. She has a joyful reverence
for the softness, the love, and the life
she is beautifully equipped to give. She
does not attempt to segregate her
sexuality for her procreativity; sex is
not a game to her. Due to her respect.
for herself as life-giver, she exercises.
“control over her body,” in a positive
manner. by responsible decisions as to
when and with whom she will engage
in procreative activity.

opinion '

The Pro-Life woman is not fighting
for liberation; she is free. She never,
denies nor ceases to value her greatest:
power -— the power to give life. She
makes her life-decisions. even the

 

 

,decision to limit' her .proereaeivity,

from this positive view of herself.
These are the truely liberated women;
be they single, married. mothers.
childless, career women. or
homemakers. The Pro-Life woman
does not see the male as her enemy or
her competitor. but 9.. her partner in
the destiny of humanity.

The current methods of sex
education and the contraceptive
mentality are not consistent with the
above view of women. of life itself.

They are increasing the numbers of , I

“unwanted” pregnancies in addition to -
degrading and victimizing women.
They are attempts at preventing
pregnancy. Until these efforts are
based on the reverence for life and a
positive attitude toward the life-
creating process, they should not be
supported. '

The Pro-Life woman does not see
herself as an isolated. individually
fiented person in a world of
l dividual persons. She sees herself as
a valued member in the family of men
and women. To her. the only
alternative to abortion is to bring the
distressed pregnant woman into a
loving community where she will
receive the support necessary to bring
her child to term in dignity. She knows
that living out the demands of a
difficult pregnancy in such an
atmosphere can be a positive
experience. An experience in life and
love is constructive. An experience in
violence and death must always be
destructive to some part of our being.

Pro-Life women will continue to
support Pro—Life groups and
activities. There may be personal
differences in culture. education.
religion and politics among members
of these groups. but these are
irrelevant to their basic message. The
message is that we all share a common
origin and destiny; this is the basis of
our equality. There is no justice. there
are no rights except those that flow
from reverence for life itself. They
remind us that the best wecan hope for
by phcing a conditional value on life is
conditional love. The Pro-Life vision
far exceeds this. We believe the destiny
of mankind is to bring creation to a
state of perfect peace and
unconditional love. lt is the function.
indeed the obligation. of the churches
to uphold the ideal. to keepthe path to
perfection open to the generations,
and to keep the message to hope alive.

San Francisco mayor
and superintendent

shot in city offices

Continued from page 1
although it was normal
procedure for a Moscone aide
to sit in on every meeting. this
time “George said there was no
need for that.”

Police said after the
shooting, White left Moscone‘s
office through a back door and
ran about I00 yards down the
hall and into the supervisor‘s
offices where he allegedly shot
and killed Milk, 48, in what had
been his own office before his
resignation.

Moscone turned 49 Friday.
A liberal, he and White had
been at political odds for some
time.

The mayor has been
supported by the Rev. Jim
Jones, leader of the Peoples
Temple and one of those who
died in Guyana. He once
appointed Jones to the city‘s-
housing authority. Police said,
however, that the murders
apparently were not connected
to the Peoples Temple. ‘

Dianne Feinstein. who as
president of 'the Board of
Supervisors will become acting
mayor, tearfully announced the
murders outside Moscone‘s}
office to a crowd of reporters
and city employees, who
gasped and screamed, “Oh
God!" drowning out her
statement.

“The suspect is Supervisor
Dan White.” she said.

Police had immediately
issued an all points bulletin for
White. who they said raced

away from City Hall in his blue ,

Opel. But White, himself a
former city policeman,
surrendered at ”:45 a.m.

“He just walked in the door
put his hands up and turned

himself in,” said a police officer 4

at the station. “He looked
pretty calm — well. not calm.
actually. Kind of in shock.”

White said two weeks ago he
was resigning because he could
no longer support his wife and
4-month-old son on a
supervisor‘s $9,600 annual
salary. He said a fried potato
concession he and his wife
recently opened on Fisher-
man‘s Wharf was not yet doing
well enough to help.

White, who was a para-
trooper in the Vietnam War
and a former policeman, quit
his later job as a city fire fighter
to comply with city rules after
his election in November I977.

Two days after resigning
from the board, he asked for
the supervisor‘s job back,
saying his family of l6 brothers
and sisters had offered him up
to $l0,000 in loans to tide him
over.
