THE KENTUCKY

The South 3 Outstanding College

Monday Afternoon, Nov. 20, I967 UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY, LEXINGTON

Juul Leaflets Go
Without Incident

By KERRY POWELL
Forty-two UK students methodically passed through dormitories
Friday night, distributing anti-administration leaflets as they went.

When two students attempted
the
night, they were threatened with
arrest by campus police and
David L. Wood, head resident
adviser of Complex Tower A.
But there was no trouble on the
second try.

Thom Juul, one of the two
who were threatened Tuesday, led
the distribution effort Friday. The
latest action was organized by the
Student Association. Juul is
chairman of the group.

Jubilant at his success, Juul
told The Kemel Friday night
that ”not a single person was
challenged. Nobody saw a single
cop. Not a single one."

The University administra-
tion, he added, ”has hadit.They
know now there is nothing they
can do when students get to-
gether."

Confronted Wood

Juul said he worked Tower A
himselfand handed a copy ofthe
leaflet to Wood.

”He sat there and looked at
it, ' Juul said, ”and then he
started making some phone calls.
We left. No problems. No prob-
lems whatsoever."

Trustees

same procedure Tuesday '

He said students in the dor-
mitories ”were tickled to death
by what we did. I think they
are sick and tired of University
regulations, which is what we’re
going after next."

Addressed to “Dear Dorm Stu-
dent," the leaflet said ”you are
being mothered by the adminis-
tration; you are being treated un-
fairly, and you are having your

.rights usurped by a dicta-
torial and hyper—bureaucratic ad-
minist ration. "

‘Civing Away' Rights

The letter, signed by Juul,
concluded, ”Failure to react is
to give away your rights. '

The letter distributed Tuesday
complained of the University 5
treatment of four students ar-
rested in an antiwar protest here.

Juul and Steve Fmth had dis-
tributed nearly 2,5“) copies of the

earlier letter before they were told
to cease or face anest for "breach

of peace." Under questioning,
Wood and two campus police-
men said they were prepared to
charge the distributers with “so-
licitation."

Defer

Bid Opening

Devaluation of the British
pound and resulting uncertainty
in the international money mar-
ket influenced the Executive
Committee of the Board ofTrust-
ces today to defer opening ofbids
on short-term University notes
totalling $31,400,000.

”All or part" of this proposed
bond issue had been met, but
bidders advised Vice President
for Business Affairs Robert L.
Kerley that it ”is not prudent
at this time to go forward with
the bidding."

Citing the devaluation of the
pound last weekend, from its pre-
vious dollar equivalent of $2.80
to a lower valuation of $2.40,
and the initial reaction of the
Federal Reserve Board, which
raised the re-discount rate, Mr.
Kerley recommended no action
now. ”We should watch the
money market and wait for it to
stabilize. It should reach stability
within a week or ten days," Ker-
ley7 said.

The University had antici-
pated interest- rate bids ranging
from 4 1/4 to 4% percent Some
bidders were prepared to go for-
ward with the bidding even
though the money market is un-
certain.

Tom Dupree, representative
of the F.L. Dupree Co. Inc.,
financial adviser to the Univer-
sity, said the “money market is
in chaos." Noting that some buy-
ers were prepared to go forward
with the bidding he said ”it is
a credit to them, but they would
have to protect themselves."

A spokesman of the Commis-
sioner of Finance's office added
that deferring the opening of bids
is “the proper approach."

These bonds, which covered
capital improvements including
the office-classroom building and
the planned parking structures,
will be the subject of a future
meeting when the money market
stabilizes.

T he Armies of Vietnam

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the
second in a series of articles on
the armies of Vietnam by Tran
Van Dinh, Vietnamese joumal-
ist who is a regular columnist

By TRAN VAN DINH
Collegiate Press Service

WASHINGTON — The exist-
ence of the first armed unit in
Vietnam can be traced back to
a militia organized by the Trung
Sisters in their rebellion against

the Chinese administrators in
the year 39 A.D.
That year, Trung Trac,

daughter of the chief of the dis-
trict of Me Linh (North Viet-
nam) and whose husband was
killed by the Chinese governor

To Dinh, raised a militia with
her sister Trung Nhi to fight the
Chinese.

They founded an independent
kingdom but it lasted little
more than two years. The
powerful Chinese troops under
Ma Vien defeated the Viet~
namesc army led by the Trung
Sisters who committed suicide
by throwing themselves into a
river.

Duringr the eight centuries of
independent imperial Vietnam,
the Vietnam armv not only de-
fended the country but had con—
tributed to the extension of the
Vietnamese borders southwards.

Hershey Lays It On The Line

 

Draft Order Is Brewing

By WALTER GRANT

WASHINGTON (CPS) —
Selective Service Director Lewis
B. Hershey is recommending
that President Johnson issue an
executive order making it stand-
ard procedure for disrupting
antiwar protesters to lose their
draft deferments.

Although the proposed execu-
tive order has not been made
public, its intent reportedly is
to “tighten up” sections of the
draft law which outline when
a Selective Service registrant
should be declared a “delin-
quent." Delinquents are re-
classified and placed first in the
order of call.

The proposal follows a letter
which Hershey sent to local
draft boards in late October
recommending that those who
block entrances to Army induc-
tion centers or obstruct military
recruitment on campuses be
drafted first. If the executive
order is signed by the Presi-
dent, this plan, which now is
only a suggestion by Gen. Her-

shey to local boards, would be

clearly spelled out as standard
procedure.

An official at Selective Serv-
ice headquarters said the Her-
shey proposal has been turned
over to the Bureau of the Bud-
get—where all proposed execu—
tive orders are initially sent —-
and is now in the processing
stages. The proposal is now be-
ing reviewed by the Depart-
ment of Justice prior to being
sent to the White House, he
said.

‘Could End It'

The Justice Department could
quickly end consideration of the
proposal by declaring it uncon-
stitutional. Since Gen. Her-
shey's letter to draft boards has
been made public, there have
been numerous charges that re-
classifying protesters is a viola-
tion of the First Amendment to
the Constitution.

In spite of the criticism of the
October letter, the proposed cx-
ecutive order indicates Gen.

Hershey is sticking with the
policy recommended in the let-
ter.

A Selective Service spokes-
man said: ‘This office has re-
ceived no formal notice from
the Attorney General that this

document (the letter) is un-
constitutional. Unless we receive
such a notice from the Justice
Department, we will have no
further comment.

Gen. Hershey said his letter
to local boards contains no new
policies, but is rather a recom-
mendation that the present draft
law be strictly enforced. The
relevant section of the Selective
Service Act says those who
“knowingly hinder or interfere
or attempt to do so in any way
by force or violence or other-
wise" with the Selective Serv-
ice system are delinquents and
may face penalties or reclassi-
fication. The proposed executive
order would presumably explain
this section of the law in more
specific terms and enjoin local
draft boards to declare regis-
trants as delinquents accord-

ingly.

Opposition WidesPread
The Selective Service direc—
tor's views have been sharply
criticized by scores of college
newspapers, clergymen, several

congressmen and numerous or-
ganizations, including the Amer-
ican Association of University
Professors and the American
Civil Liberties Union. The
Washington Post suggested in
a recent editorial that Gen.
Hershey should retire.

The Justice Department's rul-
ing may well determine the fate
of Gen. Hershey’s proposed ex-
ecutive order. The department
ruled on a similar question in
January, 1966.

At that time, Assistant At-
torney General Fred M. Vinson
Jr. said that “as a matter of
both law and policy, sanctions
of the Universal Military Train-
ing and Service Act cannot be
used in any way to stifle con-
stitutionally protected expres—
sion of views." He said re-
classification by the Selective
Service System could not be
used against demonstrators
“where the conduct involved is
the expression of an opinion,
even if the method of expres—
sion transgresses the law.”

Small Success Gained

 

Officials Compromise,

Women Grace Lounge

By STEVE SMITH
The University administration has granted Tower A residents
permission to bring women to their penthouse lounge on weekends.

Charles Mihalek, president of
the Tower A Governing Council,
said the action is a ”temporary
compromise." Students had ask-
ed the administration to allow
women to visit in men's rooms.

The new policy went into ef-
fect on a limited basis Saturday
night, when women were allowed
in the lounge from 8 to 12 p.111.
Rosemary Pond, associate dean
of students, grantedthe necessary
permission.

Change After Holiday?

Mihalek said he expects the
lounge to be open to women

guests on a more extended basis
after Thanksgiving.

He added that he has an ap-
pointment with Robert L. John-
son, vice president for student
affairs, to discuss making other
Tower A lounges open to women.
There are lounges on every third
floor of the building.

The Governing Council is not
surrendering its demand that
women be admitted to men's
rooms, Mihalek noted. But he
estimated that it would be late
spring before such a policy can
be implemented. He impliedthat
it might never be.

Question: CanMatthews

 

Block Maine Chance?

By BOB COOPER
The Associated Press
The question asked Friday wasn't whether Atty. Gen. Robert
Matthews could stop the UK Research Foundation from buying

Maine Chance Farm.

It was: Can he try?

For two hours, five lawyers—
three on one side, two on the
other—offered their views. ‘In the
end, Fayette Circuit Judge L. T.
Grant said he would answer the
question ”as soon as possible."

Mr. Matthrews filed suit ask-
ing that the foundation be

required to account for all funds
entrusted to it and to void the
foundations purchase of the
farm.

At the same time, a $30 mil-
lion conspiracy suit, filed by two
unsuccessful bidders against the
University and its foundation, is
pending in US. District Court
here.

After Mr. Matthews filed his
suit in a state court, defendants
argued that it should be dis—
missed on grounds that:

It lists the University itself

Professors
Protest New
Draft Move

WASHINGTON (CPSl—The
American Association of Univer-
sity Professors has strongly pro-
tested a directive by Selective
Service Director Lewis B. Her-
shey that persons involved in dis—
niptive antiwar protests should
be drafted first.

AAUP president Clark Byse,
a professor at the Harvard Uni-
versity Law School, and Dr. Ber—
tram H. Davis, AAUP's general
secretary, sent a telegram to Her—
shey protesting the directive asit
may affect college and university
teachers and students.

Hershest statement regard-
ing the protestors was made in
a letter sent to all members of
the Selective Service System. The
letter referred to persons who pro—
test the war and the draft by
disrupting army induction ceri-
ters or keeping military recniiters
frorii conducting interviews.

The AAUP said Hershey has
set forth a standard which would
permit local boards to induct per—
sons for exercising their consti—
tutionally guaranteed freedoms of
speech and assembly. ”The mere
existence of this undefined power
to use the draft as a punitive
instrument must therefore have a
chilling effect upon academic
freedom and free speech and as-
sembly as guaranteed bythe First
Amendment."

    
 
 

   

if Frisbee Is A Frier

Frisbee can be played for fun. But the game
of frisbee football played between the Kernel
staff and a coalition of Little Kentucky Derby,

as a plaintiff and the University
Board of Trustees hasn't given
Mr. Matthews authority to repre
sent it.

The only other area in which
Mr. Matthews has authority
might be if a ”charitable insti-
tution" is involved and the foun—
dation doesn’t come under that
category.

Mr. Matthews countered that
he has the right to represent
the University as a ”state agen-
cy" and that the foundation is a
”charitable institution" in the
sense that it administers research
that results in public good.

John L. Davis, one of the de-
fense lawyers, traced the history
of common law, which he said
dictates much of the authority
of the state's attorney general.

Neither in common law nor
in the current state statutes, he
said, can anything be found to
authorize a suit such as Mr.
Mathews has filed.

Rufus Lisle, another defense

“lawyer, said the whole case boils

down to one question: “Who is
charged with the responsibility
under the law of operating the
University ofKentucky— its trust-
ees or the attorney general?"

Mr. Matthews and his deputy
Henri Mangeot, took a different
track.

Mr. Matthews said he was
”a little amazed" at the defen-
dants' arguments and that it
seemed that the University con-
sidered itself ”an island unto
itself.”

The University, he added,
seems to have the idea ”that
you can receive tax dollars and
have no responsibility to account
for them."

Mr. Matthews said he feels
his office has the responsibility
to keep an eye on the spending
of all public money and that is
why he filed the suit. He con-
tends the purchase price of the
farm is ”public money.”

Mr. Mangeot said the Uni—
versity certainly was a ”hostile
client” for the attorney general.
but that was because the L'ni-
versity board and the foundation
board were composed of mostly
the same people.

Mr. Mangeot also said the at-
torney general's office has no
objection to the
Maine Chance Farm. as such.
but only to the method of such
purchase.

“I’m sure they could find
use for the Taj Mahal or the Enr
pire State Building, too, and they
can acquire them if they do it in
a lawful manner," he said.

New Concepts ()f Learning May

Revolutionize Education System

By jACK MILLER

\VASHINCTON (AP) —- Re-
searchers have come up with a
new concept of learning which
federal officials are convinced
has the potential for revolution-
izing the nation's educational
system in the years ahead.

It's called Individually Pre»
scribed Instruction (IPI I. and it
means that each student works
mostly on his own with ma-
terials specially suited for him.

Dr. Richard L. Bright, direc
tor of research for the US.
Office of Education. calls it the
g r e a t e s t educational break»
through of recent times. The
claims he makes for IPI explain
why federal officials are so sold
on it. Here are some:

Ready Soon

Although it sounds like sortie-
thing for the distant future.
Bright predicts that IPI will be

the country in two or three

tar\ John \V. Cardner of the
Department of Health, Frluca»

instruction in the schools will
be individualized instruction."

So far, the system has under-
gone thorough trials in only one
school: Oaklcaf Elementary in
the Baldwin—\\'hitehnll suburb
of Pittsburgh, where it has been
three years. Five more
schools adopted the system last

flair and 21 took it on this fall.
' about 1,000 systems
around the country are asking

that the system be set up in
their schools.
IPI requires vast quantities

of materials for teachers to draw
upon to fulfill the various learn-
ing needs of individual stu-
dents. Teachers find out what
the students need through con-
stant testing: placement tests.
pretests. tests imbedded in the
materials, and post-tests.

The materials. costly and dif-
ficult to develop. use a tech-
nique called programming. This

McCarthy Sets Test
Of Vietnam Posture

WASIIINC'IILN (L'I’It—Sen
believes he can bring about a

lingerie J, McCarthy of Minnesota
' significant test" of US. policy in

Vietnam by entering Democratic presidential primaries next year
even if his bid is boycotted by President Johnson.

Sen. McCarthy expects to de—
cide early next month whether
to make the race. If the decis-
ion is yes, he told United Press
Intemational, he will run in op-
position to President Johnson's
policies on Vietnam.

The President, Sen. McCar-
thy said, is so closely identified
with the war issue that it will
not matter that President John-
son's name is not entered. Even
ifthe President uses “stand-ins,"
Sen. McCarthy said, it will make
”no difference from his running
himself because people know
what his position is."

”I would see it as a signifi-
cant test inthoseprimaries where
confrontation is possible,” the
Senator declared.

In at least three states—Wis
cousin, Nebraska, ()regon ~ I’ies~

clnic he was not a presidential
candidate to avoid Inning his
name entered, eyen without lns
consent, in primary contests.

Sen. McCarthy saida ”wholenew
situation” would be created and
he would not ”fault" Sen. Rob-
ert I“. Kennedy of New York for
making a bid of his own. Sen.
Kennedy has announced that he
would support President John-
son for reelection in 1968.

Sen. McCarthy said he had
made no attempt to get Sen.
Kennedy's backing for an anti-
Iohnson Drive.

However, Sen. McCarthy said
”The position I am taking (on
Vietnam) is very close to that
which Sen. Kennedy has been
taking so that it would seem to
me it might be rather difficult
for him to say that he is for the
position I represent and also for
President Johnson. "

Sen. McCarthy also made
clear he will not ask his Demo-
cratic colleagues in Congress to
stick their political necks out by
supporting a "drop Johnson"
move within the party.

”I've not asked any ofthernto
do anything in support of me,”
Sen. McCarthy said. ”So far as
I‘ve talked to them, I‘ve said
‘l)o whatever you think is best
for yourself in the range of your
convictions.

'\s for himself, Sen. McCar-
thy. whose Senate term ends in
1971. Ielt that the issue was
”important enough so that one
ought to take it to the people
ltl any case.

”If there is to be a test for
the country," he said, “I think
it has to be either in a third
party movement which I‘m
against, or else in the Demo-
cratic party."

Guest Editorial
Not peace,

But Freedom

By WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST, JR.
Editor-In-Chief, The Hearst Newspapers

EDITOR'S NOTE: Since The Kernel strongly dissents from United States’ in—
volvement in Vietnam we tend to forget the rationale for our commitment there.
The following editorial eloquently states the case for Vietnam. It appeared Nov.
5 in the Hearst papers, and Nov. 10 in The New York Times.

SAIGON—To people who live over here—Asians and Europeans alike—it is in-
conceivable that Americans don't seem to realize:

l—That they are winning the war, and

2—That the seek-and—destroy tactics in the South and the bombing of military
targets in the North is the proper—if not the only—way to make the Communists
from North Vietnam leave the free people of South Vietnam alone.

It won't be over tomorrow, or next week, or before the Presidential election
next ear. But we’re winnin .

. Nd] facts or statistics from the war could conceivably lead Ho Chi Minh to
think HE was winning.

Yet he fights on, refusing to so much as indicate a willingness to even discuss
a peaceful solution.

No words or deeds of the US. or South Vietnam could make Ho think that
peace would cost him a square inch of his land or that he might lose face by
having to agree to any ”unconditional surrender" terms.

Where then—you might well ask—lies the key to this ”inscrutable oriental
mind"?

The answer, ladies and gentlemen, lies in the words and deeds of a minority
of well meaning but faint-hearted peace-at-any-price Americans.

Supporting this view are a goodly number of students who in all honesty don't
want their tranquil young lives interrupted, perhaps prematurely ended.

Bringing up the rear—but noisily—in this antiwar formation are the bearded,
bedraggled beatniks. They recognize no obligation to their country—nor to their
parents either, for that matter-and avoid service to anybody but themselves with
as great an abhorrence as they do soap.

Here, then, is the American key to the ”inscrutable oriental mind" of Ho Chi
Minh. He firmly believes that we will repudiate President Johnson at the polls next
November and that LBj's successor—in answer to the demands of a majority of the
(now ”peace—loving," heretofore ”imperialistic") American people—will take French
leave from Vietnam.

People love peace—the world around.

. A very wise world observer once noted that ”there has never been a popular
war nor an unpopular peace.”

Revolutions are more popular than other wars, but even our own revolutionary
war almost died aboming through lack of pOpular support.

Americans don't think of themselves as quitters, but unfortunately the record
is full of facts indicatingthat wereit not for the leaders in the White House and the
Departments of State, War and Navy,the”people" would several times have thrown
in the towel when the going got rough or the encounter drawn out.

The very existence of the USA. is due importantly to the participation of the
admirals and generals of France—Lafayette and Rochambeau didn't come from
Brooklyn or Berkeley.

But even during the crucial days most Americans wanted “peace."

Lincoln wasn’t really appreciated until Americans realized—tardily—that he had
almost singlehandedly supplied the leadership that held our Nation together until
we could secure liberty and justice and freedom for all.

Americans in the South wanted out and Americans in the North thought it was
”good riddance to bad rubbish."

Both sides wanted peace.

Most Americans didn't want to get into either world war and only stayed
because anybody and everybody could see we were winning almost from the start.

The barriers President Tmman raised to Communist aggressionr-‘in Greece and
Turkey, and again in Korea, were widely unpopular. Why, when our outnumbered
forces were driven down to the toe of Korea and almost into the sea, do you know
what the majority of the American people (according to Dr. George Gallup) wanted
most?

Cut and run! Get out.

Only the word they used was ”peace," and they wanted it ”at any—or almost
any—price."

So it is not un—American to want peace. ,

But it has never been the policy nor the belief of our leadership that we should
buy peace with our pledged word, or our treaty commitments, or our honor.

The reasons for the unpopularity of our present predicament are plain and un-
derstandable.

Until a very few years ago most Americans didn‘t even know where South
Vietnam WAS and even today don't know a single Vietnamese by sight, let alone
to
