Football: American TV’s ’foolishness’

By RICHARD McDONALD
Kernel Reporter

For many, a great sporting event
is a hardhitting football game,
viewed from a good stadium seat,
accompanied by a cold beer.

According to Dr. Ernst Jokl,
however, football is not sport, but
"foolishness" promoted by Ameri-
can TV.

Jokl is an emeritus professor in
the College of Allied Health, and has
been awarded a two-year HEW
grant to write a book about his views
on athletics and sports medicine.

He has many years of experience
on which to base his views.

He is certified to practice medi-
cine in Germany, Britain and the
United States. In addition, Jokl is
chairman of the research committee
of UNESCO‘s International Council
of Sport and Physical Rehabilita-
tion.

Jokl also proudly displays many
awards he won as a track athlete in
Germany, where he was born and
educated. He has competed in
several national track champion-

Fire!

go West
to fight it

By JENNIFER GREER
Kernel Reporter

Adventure isn‘t dead and it hasn’t
all gone Navy.

Ask any one of the 19 Kentuckians
from the Daniel Boone National
Forest who spent two action-packed
weeks in the rugged mountains of
northern and central California
fighting forest fires.

The 18-man, one-woman crew
from Winchester was called in to
help when an electrical storm Aug. 3
simultaneously ignited 240 fires, and
lightning from another on Aug. 6
started an additional 150 fires in
parks and forests throughout the
state, according to Bill Powers, a
fire information officer at the USDA
Forest Service in San Francisco.

“Drought conditions caused these
fires to spread very quickly," Pow-
ers said. “By the end of the week,
they were out of control and we had
a firestorm on our hands. The
situation was critical because our
crack forces were occupied with
blazes in southern California; that's
when we told Boise that we needed
fire fighters fast, and plenty of
them."

Before midnight on Aug. 12,
Kentucky 12 (as the unit would be
Known) received orders to fly to the

Boise, Idaho, Interagency Fire Cen-
er for immediate assignment to the
Salifornia fires.

They would be joining 10,000
)thers whom the state had hired in
)ne of the largest organized fire
‘ighting efforts.

Fire fighting has been called the
nost physically dangerous and ex-
iausting work other than hand-to-
iand combat. Brush fires can move
ip to 50 miles an hour and timber
'ires burn with tornadolike intensi-
:y. Shifts are long-46 to 17 hours per
day-two or three weeks as some
crews put in 21 straight days during
:he worst weeks of California's
August firestorm.

“Of course they had to pass a
standard physical examination and
to have had some fire fighting
experience, but more than that, they

ships thre. and was a member of an
early German Olympic team.

As proud as he is of his own
athletic accomplishments, Jokl is
more enthusiastic about sportsmedi-
cine, a field he helped establish in
this country.

The discipline has four aspects,
Jokl says: applied Physiology (the
body as a machine); exercise relat-
ed to clinical medicine; “a practical
(aspect) faced every Sunday and
Monday morning—sports injuries";
and rehabilitation and sports for the
handicapped.

Jokl has strong opinions about the
state of American sports. He de-
scribes spectator sports as “an
irrational affair."

He dislikes America's fondness for
violent sports. Particularly football,
which he calls “nonsense and irres-
ponsibility." This, he says, is his
opinion of any sport where “injuries
are intentionally produced. "

Expressing extreme disdain for
boxing, Jokl says, “you hit a man on
the head until he is unconscious, and
then you give him money for it.

"If you do it outside the boxing
ring, you get 10 years for it . . .If I

 

had to want to go." said Kentucky 12
crew boss Bill Williams, a veteran
forest fire fighter and the timber and
wildlife staff officer at Daniel Boone
Forest.

UK graduate forester Gary Hawk-
ins was one of those who met all
three requirements and he was part
of the Kentucky unit that left that
second week in August for a rigorous
15-day battle in California’s forest
infernos.

"We arrived in Boise that same
morning, moved into barracks, ate
and sat through several training
sessions which dealt mostly with
safety equipment and practices.
When we went to bed that night, we
hadn't been assigned to a fire and
were expecting to be in Idaho for a
few days.”

Not so, Hawkins said. At 1:30 a.m.
members of Kentucky 12 were
roused, fed and told to pack. They
were being flown to Bakersfield in
central California to help mop up the
Bear Trap fire in the Sequoia
National Park.

One of the smaller blazes. the
Bear 'Irap fire had only consumed
5.597 acres of timber before being

were concerned, I would make it a
criminal offense.

“However, we are a free country.
and freedom means freedom for
tools."

Jokl does see jogging as a bright
spot in American sports. A jogger
and member of the National Jogging
Association, he says he began the
sport “entirely because l like it. I
liked the exercise.

“I like the companionship of the
many men and women with whom I
becameassociated.“

He says perhaps half the people
who jog do so for enjoyment, while
the other half jog to improve their
health. Of the latter half, Jokl said
he doubted the sport would add
“even six months" to their lives.

“But it is true that if you take up
the discipline of daily training, then
you change your whole lifestyle. If
you have been smoking, then you
don't smoke anymore.

"If you run every day, then you
won‘t overeat anymore. You will
sleep better. . . that’s what it is.
Whether you will live longer. we just
don‘t know.“

brought under control by fire fight-
ers and an unexpected rainfall.

Hawkins said the laborious job of
mopping up a fire consists of digging
up everything burnable—leaves,
roots, everything—within 200 feet of
the fire line. Small spot fires are
then put out with water from hoses
hooked up to 300-gallon pumper
trucks.

Kentucky 12 had worked the Bear
Trap fire only a short while before a
cry for help came from officials at
the Klamuth National Forest in
northern California where a giant
timber fire was blackening thou-
sands of acres of mountain forests.

The unit was packed on buses,
then planes, and flown to the scene
of the blaze where 1,200 people
fought the fire along with 11 bulldo
zers, 23 ground tankers and 10
helicopters.

The Hog Fire, which eventually
scorched 45,544 acres, was virtually
controlled by the time Kentucky 12
left for home, but officials say it will
be winter before the fire completely

UK alumnus protects
school as legal counsel

By REBECCA PREM
Kernel Reporter

Down the stairs in Room 2 of the
Administration Building a sign
reads simply, “Legal Counsel."

Through the door behind the sign
is a tiny office choking with books
and cigarette smoke.

Attorney John Darsie works out of
this space. keeping the University
out of trouble. As a corporate
lawyer, he deals with UK‘s legal
problems. He does not handle stu-
dent cases.

The softspoken Darsie sits with
feet desk-propped and a cup of
coffee in hand during the interview.
His hand is never without a cigar-
ette.

What are UK's legal problems?

“Well, for example, Mr. Kenneth
Smith is suing UK's veterinary
department for $2,150,000. The rac-
ing commissions, both the thorobred
and the trotters, asked us (UK) to
run some urine tests after the races.

“They didn’t like the way he
(Smith) was doing them. I guess he
got mad, and so now he‘s suing us
(UK).“ Darsie will defend the
University in the suit.

As another example of a UK legal
entanglement, Darsie told of a case
last spring when student Cecil Mill
broke his neck in a scrimmage
football game. He is now a para-
plegic as a result of the accident.

His parents sued the University
for $10 million, but lost the case
because a film of the game showed
the University was not responsible

for the injury.

Another suit, which is still pend~
ing, involves an accident in Colorado
in July at a UK geology camp. Two
students were killed and three were
injured in a jeep vehicle. and the
students’ parents will probably sue
the University, Darsie said.

Darsie came to represent UK in
1965. He was not new to the school,
having attended undergraduate col~
legc and law school here. He was
graduated in 1961.

After law school he worked for the
Legislative Research Commission
for a couple of years and then joined
the Air Force. In the service he
worked with the Judge Advocate
General. defending and prosecuting
servicemen.

TIIE SENATE APPROVED A WIDE-ranging energy
bill yesterday setting new conservative standards for
buildings, home appliances and automobiles after reject-
ing a proposed mandatory gasoline rationing plan.

The rationing amendment was defeated 73 to 15. The
Senate then passed the overall bill 78 to4.

Although it contains many of the energy-saving
measures proposed by President Carter, the legislation
asloincludes a ban on the manufacture of cars with poor
fuel economy, beginning with 1900 models receiving less
than 16 miles per gallon.

A SUDDEN FLOOD FED BY 24 HOURS of unprece-
dented rainfall left at least 18 dead, 1.200 homeless and
Kansas City‘s fanciest shopping area in near ruin
yesterday.

Thecity’s suburbs in Kansas and Missouri also suffered
flood damage and the governors of both states toured the
area. intending to ask for federal disaster aid.

The floods were spawned by more than a foot of rain
that fell in the 24—hour period ending at 1 a.m. yesterday
morning. It was the heaviest recorded rainfall in the city's
history. Water rose to five feet and more in streets and
buildings.

THE CHIEF BANK REGULATOR in Atlanta was
quoted yesterday as saying Bert Lance wanted to know
long before the 1976 election what could be done about
federal restrictions on his bank if he was named to a high
post in the Carter administration.

But Donald L. 'I‘arleton, the Atlanta regional comp-
troller who eventually dropped those restrictions, denied
the account after it was released by the Senate Govern-
mental Alairs Committee.

Sen. Charles H. Percy, R-Ill., introduced an affadavit by
banking examiner Charles Francis Stuart that recounted
a meeting with Tarleton and another bank examiner in
Atlanta on May 13, ms.

A spokesman for Lance said the budget director would
respond when he testified before the committee Thursday

Mayoral candidates
want to aid UK, but...

The I'niversity recently received some unex-
pected support in its campaign to win a greater
percentage of the state budget for higher
education.

Lexington mayoral candidates James Amato
and Joe Graves have both pledged to speak on
UK‘s behalf when the school's biennial budget
request reaches the decisive stages. Amato in
particular says he is interested in seeking
additional funds for UK.

The Kentucky Council on Higher Education is
now considering proposed budgets from all state
institutions and will soon make recommenda-
tions to the governor. Actions on the budget will
be of major importance during the next several
months.

Informally, L'K officials are receptive to the
possibility of getting assistance from local
government. The administration is convinced
the University‘s standards and quality are riding
on the budget request.

The request seeks $262.3 million in state funds
for the next two fiscal years—a $46.7 million
increase from the last biennial allocation.

There‘s no reason to restrict such cooperation
between local government and the University to
the problem of obtaining funds from state

government. By working together. UK and
chington could improve other situations.

Many of the problems facing Lexington are
magnified at UK. In a city with an extremely
tight housing market (0.5 per cent residential
vacancy rate). the University area is perhaps
worst of all.

By constructing more low-income housing
near UK, perhaps with partial federal or state
funding. exorbitant offcampus rents might
decline. Additional housing would also return
some competition to the apartment business, and
improve the quality of what's offered. With more
housing, campus residence halls might become
more available. and BOO-name waiting lists
would no longer exist.

Also. more help from local government is
needed to relieve the day-long traffic jam
surrounding UK. ()ne'way lanes, pedestrian
overpasses and traffic directors at intersections
could help ease congestion near campus. To help
a related problem, an interested government
could arrange for more parking spaces near
campus.

In a recent address, Amato noted the
importance of UK to Lexington.

As the area's largest employer and an

 

institution which brings a vast amount of money
to the area, UK is worthy of particular attention
to its problems.

Those problems, though, do not end at the table
of the Council on Higher Education or at the state
legislature.

It’s encouraging that Lexington's next mayor
will be interested in helping the University in its

 

budget request. It would be even more encoura-
ging to know if the mayor will also take an active
role in solving other urgent problems facing
those who work and study at UK.

If both candidates do campaign on UK’s
importance to the community and vow to help
the University, then they should turn their
attention on the area’s other mundane problems.

 

 

 

Triad of TV lies: 'Washington,’ Nixon and Liddy

By GREG KOCHER

‘ More footnotes to the Nixon
years "

That was the headline for the lead
story in last Sunday‘s Louisville
t'ourier Journal & Times. The CJ &
'1' didn't know it then but last week
was a week of footnotes.

'l‘ucsday ABt‘ began the mini-
series. "Bashington: Behind Closed
Doors." based on John Ehrlich-
man's not cl The (‘ompany

commentary

Thursday G. Gordon Liddy. Mr.
ZippedLip himself. held his first
press conference since his release
from the federal prison in Danbury.
"onn.

And Friday. the L'K Student
t‘enter Board Theater featured “All
the President's Men " It was enough
for Watergate buffs to choke on their
own saliva.

The purpose of a footnote in a
research paper is to give the reader
information about a source. so the
reader can look back at the source
and see how the author arrived at
certain conclusions.

Roughly. that was the purpose of
"Washington: Behind Closed
Doors": to show the events and

 

background prior to Watergate;
LBJ's decision not to run for
reelection; the escalation of the war
into Cambodia; student protests and
Nixon's paranoia of the news media.

Thus. the audience was promised
an “insider‘s" look at the private
pressures, blind ambitions and sex-
ual urges of those in high places. But
the series regrettably made mis-
takes in crooning that it is still the
same old story. the fight for love and
glory. a case of do or get done-in.

A big criticism of last season's TV
blockbuster. “Roots“ was that
blacks. for the most part. were
shown as dignified and heroic; while
whites were depicted in a more
negative light.

The same goes for “Washington“.

All persons inside the administra-
tion were depicted as either corrupt,
hard-nosed brutes or sniveling,
brown-nosed opportunists.

()n the other hand. those outside
the administration were portrayed
as good American liberals shocked
to high heaven at all the goings-on in
that soiled White House.

The dichotomy of “good guys“

and "bad guys" was absolute in the
series. yet is rarely so absolute in
real political life.

As a footnote “Washington“ was
interesting. But if one really wants

to know how the government reacted
during this period one should read
The Best and the Brightest.

This brings us to the last Richard
Nixon-David Frost confrontation,
telecast by about 100 stations around
the country. Frost asked. with all the
hindsight he could muster, why the
damning tapes weren't destroyed.

There‘s a saying that the first
casualty of war is truth. Truth was
also slaughtered (not laid bare, as
some had hoped) in the ballyhooed
Nixon~Frost interviews.

Granted. the interviews them-
selves were high television, infin-
itely better than the presidential
debates of 1976. Frost asked the
right questions in an insistent but
restrained manner in deference to
the former president. Nixon evaded
those questions with his usual flair,
plus just enough tearfullness to reap
the emotions of a sympathetic,
captivated audience.

In his long career Nixon played
the roles of Grand Opportunist in the
50‘s, Resurrected Republican in 1968
and Landslide President in 1972.

The Nixon of 1977 accepted a new
role. He is now The Exile, and
although he was forced to take the
role in 1974 it was not until Frost
produced the show that the public

had a chance to see the perfor-
mance.

The public soon learns that Nixon
hasn‘t changed; he has. in effect.
type-cast himself. He still is a
chameleon, changing his under-
standing of the truth as fits the
circumstance.

For instance, obstruction of jus-
tice wasn‘t committed since there
was no intent to obstruct justice. If I
hadn't been for Martha Mitchell
there would have been no Water-
gate. The escalation of the war into
Cambodia was a successful move
despite the fact that American
casualties increased by one third
after that escalation.

To add insult to injury, Nixon, in
answer to a question, said that he
was the last casualty of the Vietnam
war. A bit of the old Nixon arrogance
surfaced in that answer.

To quote William F. Buckley, Jr.,
“The last casualty of Vietnam is
Vietnam."

Perhaps the interviews were

worth the trouble, if for no other
reason than Nixon admitted, “I
brought myself down. .

The third footnote, Liddy’s recent
press conference, contained ele-
ments of high rhetoric and low farce,
which, in the case of Liddy, is
appropiate.

Theodore H. White tells us in The
Making of the President—I972 that
Liddy was “pugnacious, violent,
erratic, if you will, a nut...he
enjoyed himself once by leaping
from a garage roof ‘like Batman' to
frighten small children."

If Liddy lost his composure when
hit by pie in the forehead before the
press conference, he certainly did
not lose his bristling arrogance
duringit:

Q: Any remorse for Watergate?

Liddy: No.

Q: Why not?

Liddy: Just no.

Q: Can you tell us why you went
into Watergate?

Liddy: I can, but I won’t.

Q: Can you tell us what you were
looking for?

Liddy: I could, but I will not.

0: Why won’tyou'?

Liddy: I choose not to.

Liddy thinks he hasn‘t told us
much about Watergate, but I some-
times wonder if he isn’t telling us
more about the Nixon period than all
the journalists and historians put
together.

And finally the last footnote, All
the President's Men the charming
story of how those White Knights.
Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein,
dethroned the King with a new-and-
improved lance called “investiga-
tive journalism."

Though they be cocky, I would
much rather have Woodward and
Bernstein reporting new truths in
”The Final Days“ than having
others repeating old lies on tele-
vision.

Is there life after graduation?

By HARRY B. MILLER III

By the time Jan. 1 rolls around, I
will have begun a new life. So will
have a number of people I closely
associate with. The turning point
will be graduation. Unfortunately,
no one ever really spells out to what
you‘ve graduated.

This past summer was enlighten-
ing. It revealed something of what
the future will hold, at least for me.

commentary

Graduation doesn’t sound all that
important. For many it‘s simply the
getting the hell out of school. But it
does have more significance than
that. It’s the turning of fantasizing
kids into real people.

The shock of realization came
when I started seeing a lot of high
school friends I hadn't seen in a
while. They were at their jobs. The
big difference was we were no
longer in high school. These weren‘t
summer jobs in most cases, as was
mine.

These people I saw were on the
way to responsibility and power.
They have. and will likely enhance,

 

 

. the ability to control their own lives

and affect the lives of people around
them.

All of a sudden, something clicked
in my mind. Graduation will take me
out of ”to co" gr ”'rc: n‘ ' ' ' will

have to become a real person. like it
or not. as the high school friends I

saw this summer have. And I don't
think I will like it.

College is a dream land. Today
this is especially true. Worries tend
to be centered on getting a passing
grade. or the action at the Keys.
Scraping up tuition or finding an
apartment comes up now and then,
but that seems to only brush on the
real world.

Every once in a while students like
us will get flushed with social
consciousness, protest, riot, and
have known to die as a result. Those
days, however, are pretty much
gone. But the past activists were
dreamers too. Their dreams came at
a time when conditions were ripe,
social upheaval existing on many
levels and motivation for change
high. Those activists saw the real
world they were about to enter,
couldn‘t believe it and tried to affect
a restructuring to make the world
somewhat more liveable. Appar-
ently they succeeded. Tom Hayden
for Congress? Geez.

So what does the future hold? It's a
whole new life, a new identity, new
people and, worst of all, the ability to
make all the wrong decisions affect-
ing yourself and others.

That ability is scary, though
enevitable. And who would want to
be led by the hand for the rest of
their lives? Self-sufficiency is not an
undesirable goal, but it does have
l‘l“‘ 'H'ttlpr «g.

If you can‘t guess what the
consequences are, take a look

around. People can give a lot of
clues. For example, most of my
friends out of college are either
dissatisfied with their jobs or un-

employed. A couple have retreated.

back to school.

What it seems all of us will have to
contend with, from what I’ve seen,
will be bad jobs which are hard to
find in the first place, unhappy
marriages, alcohol, drugs and loneli-
ness. The list goes on. Bright spots
dreamed about today may never
come.

 

I’m looking at the future with
apprehension. The shock of what
real life is has yet to really bit. It
probably won‘t till Jan. 1.

Let’s see, I’ll be unemployed, un-
trained (thanks, UK), socially cut
adrift,...

 

Harry B. Miller plans to graduate In
December. What he does after that

Senators who quizzed Lance
should be on Hollywood Squares

By (IRF (It. F [F IDS

If nothing else. Federal
Budget Director Bert Lance‘s
appearance before the Senate
Governmental Affairs Com»
mittee on Thursday will hope-
fully lead to investigation of
two questions the scandal has
raised.

First, just why is it that no
one found out about Lance's
involveiiients during his Senv
ate confirmation hearings?
And. second, are Senate con-
firmation hearings at all ef-
fective‘.’

Perhaps it best to clarify
the involvements. Lance is a
past president of both Cal-
houn Ga. First National Bank
and the National Bank of
Georgia (NBGI— both banks
are in Georgia and not exact-
ly in the big leagues.

While he was president of
Calhoun. he and his relatives
ran up $450,000 in overdrafts.
Lance claims it‘s not unusual
in southern banking practic—
es.

While president at NBG,
Lance received a $3.4 million
loan from the First National
Bank of Chicago (FNBC). A
month earlier he had estab-
lished a correspondent rela-
tionship with the same bank.

Under a correspondent res
iationship one could apply for
a large loan at NBC (which is
small) and they could then
contract with FNBC t which is
big) to help them cover it.
This, both banks profit.

As to the question why
didn‘t the Senate know about
these things when they were
conducting their confirma
tion hearings on Lance, an
investigation conducted by
comptroller of the currency
John lleimann suggests
Lance lied to the Senate.

Lance‘s claim that the
$450,000 overdraft of he and
his family are “typical“ in
the South has been derided by
bankers across the nation,
who claim Lance is wrong
and giving bankers a bad
name. (Well, gosh, they‘re
such nice guys anyway).

During the confirmation
hearings Lance testified that
all overdrafts were paid back
with interest. According to
the comptroller‘s report all
overdrafts were repaid, but
not always with interest.

 

 

”gm (IW‘WC— ~-

In hearings before the Gov-
ernmental Affairs Committee
in J tily. Lance claimed he had
not actively worked on the
establishment of correspond
ent relations between NBG
and FNBC. The compti'oller's
report's conclusion: Lance
worked very actively on es-
tablishing such ties

Also during the July hear-
ings, Lance claimed his $3.4
million loan was fully collat»
eralized. in other words.
Lance was treated like any-

confirmation hearings was
they are now- are little more
than a joke. Perhaps the good
senators should all be contest-

order to be able to tell when
someone‘s blul'fiiig. i'l‘hey-

formed solely for the purpose.

Ribicoff suggests that this
office could then get informa—
tion on nominees from the
FBI, the (‘TA and the ”LS.

let senators know about such
things as the ('Uliipli‘llllt’i‘S
