Judge Sentences UK Budget Cut $3.5 Million
Students To Jail

MARTINE. WEBB

Four University students char-
ged with breach of peace by cam
pus police Nov. 6 were sentenced
yesterday in Lexington police
court to 50 days in jail and 3100
costs. They were released one
hour later on appeal bond.

The students— Bill Murrell,
Kyp Lewis, Dan O'Leary, and
Roger Woock—- also have been
charged under the new Student
Code with “abusive, obscene,
violent, excessively noisy or
drunken misbehavior" in connec-
tion with a sit~in at the Place-
ment Office.

The court appointed defense
attorney, Roger Sledd, said he
didn't think Judge Walter Tack-
ett was “necessarily wrong. He

did what he thought was right."

The students were released on
a supersedeas bond which guar-
antees performance of jail sen-
tence and payment of costs. Costs
amounted to $250 each.

Bail Raised

Bail was raised through the
efforts of Dr.Thomas Olshewsky,
assistant professor of philosophy,
who contacted Dr. Fred Brouwer,
also an assistant professor of phil-
osophy, and his wife who offered
their home as assurance the stu-
dents would appear in court. Dr.
Brouwer is a friend of one of
the students

Mr. Sledd said an appeal will

‘ '8 made some time in January'

or March. The appeal will be
made questioning the constitu-
tionality of the charge under the
first amendment.

Under Kentucky statutes,
campus police are authorized to
make arrests both on and» OR
campus. Col. F. C. Dempsey,

head of safety and security, said
he was aware of the ”ofl'ense"
but took no action until notified
by Jack Hall, dean of students.

Any arrests made by campus

 

police must be ruled on by the
Lexington police court.

Mr. Hall testified before the
court that ”when it became ob-
vious they (the students) were
interfering with ingress and eg-
ress to the Placement Office, I
made it clear to the group that
they would have to move or be
removed.

Allowed To Demonstrate

”Under the University Stu-
dent Code they were allowed to
demonstrate peacefully unless
they in any way obstructed the
normal functions of the Univer-
sity," he said.

Two campus police officers
involved in removing the stu—
dents testified that there ”was
no vulgarity or obscenity on the
part of the students. But the
misc level was reasonably high. "

During the trial Murrell test-
ified there ”was no stated pur-
pose for the demonstration." In
a meeting the night before the
demonstration, the 25 or so pro-
testers agreed that their protest
would be strictly on an indi-
vidual level.

Murrell said ”essentially we
were asking a question that had
never been asked before: Since
student organizations must meet
certain requirements to become
recognized by the University, why
shouldn’t business and industrial

organizations recruiting mumm- .

pus also have to iiieet certain
requirements?

'Lack Of Sophistication'

Murrell felt that due to the
”lack of sophistication of the
court , the constitutionality of this
case can't be reasonably deter-
mined." Judge Tackett appeared
amused at Murrell’s opinion and
asked him what determined a
"sophisticated court,” which

Dr. Horace Champney, psychologist and prints, told an audience

Vietnam last March, was an "almost ultimate protest”

against

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP)—The state has ordered
a $24.1 million reduction in current spending to
offset a lag in revenue collections.

The action authorized by Gov. Edward T.
Breathitt yesterday was the first public acknowl-
edgement that income this fiscal year has been
disappointingly lower than estimates.

The $24 million deficit also happens to be the
same amount the regime came up with almost
two years ago for increased teacher salaries after
declaring earlier it did not have the money.

In a memorandum to the governor, Finance
Commissioner Felix Joyner said:

”Very simply, we have appropriation authori-
zation totaling $397.8 million and expected receipts
of only $373.7 million. This is a difference of
$24.1 million."

To live within its means until next June, end
of the current fiscal year, the state is chopping
the budget of almost every agency except consti-
tutional offices and the legislative and judicial
branches.

The largest single cut is $4.5 million for the
Minimum Foundation Program for schools.

Other major reductions include $3.5 million

each to the University of Kentucky and Eco-
nomic Security Department.

Other state universities are being cut $500,0(X)
each and Kentucky State College $150,000.

The dim. financial situation has been known
for months bye-observers.

However, the Democratic administration never
has acknowledged flatly that it would have to
cut back spending fairly soon.

The reductions were announced one week after
the election of Republican Louie B. Nunn as
governor. The details were available privately—
to Democratic sources—for weeks.

Coincidentally, a Nunn representative, Harold
Kelly of Ashland, visited budget analysts yester-
day to acquaint himself with financial prospects
in the next few years. He reportedly is in line
for the post of finance commissioner.

The first sign that the state was having money
troubles came when the surplus carryover into
the new fisCal year was $6 million less than
anticipated.

The next was when monthly reports of tax
collections showed either a stagnant pattern or
else minor increases over the previous periods.

 

H ippieland: H edonism‘ Concealed
By Beads And Flashing Lights

By JACQUES LESLIE

Collegiate Press Service

Once there was a group of
highly imaginative, Bohemian
people who lived in the Haight-
Ashbury district of San Francis-
co. Among them were musicians
and artists, many who used drugs
fairly regularly. These people no

'ldfigér live in Haight-Ashbury.

They have been driven out by
high rents, tourists, and the fact
that what was once a commun-
ity has now become merely a
place to live.

The hippies prescribed drugs,
and middle class society became
obsessed with evaluating this pre-
scription's remedial powers. Ei-
ther you were for it or against
it. Among those who decided for
it were thousands of college stu-
dents across the country. Even the
rnost entrenched gin -and-tonic
set in the fraternities began to
sponsor pot parties (not without
a twinge of guilt, of course).
But others condemned the use of

News Analysis

drugs, citing statistics and stud-
ies on the dangers of LSD and
marijuana.

The hippie movement grew
tremendously. "Summer hippies"

 

 

and “weekend hippies" became
more common than the real thing,
and, of course, all came from
the middle class. Who wanted
to stay at home watching TV
when you could go outside and
receive stimulation from psyche-
delic lights? Marijuana was pop-
ular for the simple reason that
it could turn the most prosaic

  

I . lm\‘\ \

of atmospheres into an interest-
ing one.

Lost in the shuffle were the
original hippies and the ideals
they believed in.

So what have the hippies con—
tributed? They have, hopefully,

dispelled a few myths about the
evil powers of marijuana. They
have opened up a new world
in clothing styles and popular
music. They have made non-vio-
lence the creed of thousands; and
perhaps also they have made
middle class society a little more
conscious of its own hypocrisy.

But have they gotten closer
to a more basic honesty? The
answer has to be no: here, per-
haps as in any mass movement,
the majority seem to have de-
cided themselves, confusing
grooving together for understand-

ing.

It is apparent the hippie move-
ment will not last, if for no other
reason than that people usually
become uncomfortable after liv-
ing with a myth for a while. New
movements, aided by the com-
pulsive media, will come along,
grow and decline.

But the hippies have reached
their peak. The end will come
when too many of them discover
that the vision they were con—
structing was not new. It was
just good old middle class hed-
onism, concealed by beads and
flashing lights.

Kernel Poll Shows Kennedy Is
Students’. Choice For President

By DICK KIMMINS

A Kernel Poll indicates UK students favor
any major Republican presidential candidate over
Lyndon B. Johnson.

But the poll also shows Democratic Sen. Robert
F. Kennedy a favorite in competition with the
same Republicans.

The poll, conducted last week, shows Republi-
can hopefuls beating President Johnson by margins
of 20 _to 30 percent.

Sen. Kennedy wins against each of the Repub-
licans by by slight margins. With the New York
senator as the Democratic candidate, the unde-
cided vote could be a decisive factor on campus.

. Rockefeller Impressive

Making the most impressive showing against
President Johnson was New York Cov. Nelson
Rockefeller, the choice among students by 2 mar-
gin of 62.2 percent to 28.5 percent.

Gov. Rockefeller, Michigan Gov. George Rom—
ney and former vice president Richard M. Nixon
made nearly indentical showings against Sen.

Kennedy. Each was favored by some 43 percent
of students.

Students who said they were Republicans, or
independents with Republican leanings, favored
Mr. Nixon—by a small margin—for the Republi-
can presidential nomination.

The following question was asked to a random
sample of University students:

”Suppose the Presidential election was being
held today. If Johnson were the Democratic nom-
inee and Nixon were the Republican candidate,
which would you like to see win?

The Results
University students gave the following per-
centages:
Johnson ....................................................... 33.7
Nixon ......................................................... 52.9
Undecided ................................................... 13.4

The same question was asked with Gov. Rock-
efeller as the Republican candidate, and with

Ohio Guardsmen Called Out

WILBERFORCE, Ohio (UIP)
-Five-hundred Ohio National
Guardsmen were activated Mon-
day when a small group ofgre-
bellious students at Central State
University (CSU) prevented po-
lice from arresting a suspended
classmate.

However, there was no vio-
lence and the students dispersed
even before the guardsmen were
reporting to their armories.

The whereabouts of the sus-
pended student, Michael Warren,
21, was not known. Warren was
suspended Thursday for allegedly
threatening to "kill" the presi-
dent of neighboring Wilberforce
University.

Both schools have a predom-
inantly Negro enrollment.

A, force of 100 sheriff's dep-
uties and police were sent to the
campus in this small western
Ohio community alter a group of“
between 30 to 50 students bar-
ricaded an entrance to a building
to shield Warren.

About 300 other students mil-
led om side the building. '

John McElroy, chief aide to
Gov. lanes A. Rhorks, said four
guard units from the Springfield-
Dayton area were issued the order
for active duty following an ap-

peal by Greene County Sheriff
Russell Bradley.

Brig. Gen. William Morr said
the guardsmen were not sent to
Wilberforce but were ordered to
report to armories in Springfield
and Dayton on a standby basis.

The present rate of applicat-

ure more than double what was
expected.

Dr. Herbert M. Jelley, Jefler-
son's director, said that the col—
lege was receiving approximately
70 applicants per week. Appli-
cations for 948 students have al-
ready been received.

About a fourth of the appli-

Philadelphia.

_ Army Capt. Howard B. Levy,
sentenced to three years in pri-
son by a court martial for his
anti-Vietnam war activities, was
rebuffed Monday on an appeal
to the Supreme Court.

‘ The 30-yearold New Yorker
was found guilty at Ft. Jack-
son, S. C., for refusing to train
Green Beret medical aides for
service in Vietnam and of mak-
ing statements of opposition to
US participation in the war.

Also Monday four. young
American seamen said they have
deserted from the Aircraft Carrier
USS Intrepid in protest against
the Vietnam war.

At Jefferson

cations were for the fall semester
of 1968.

"Our plans are to accommo
date everyone who applies and
who fulfills the entrance require
ments," Dr. JeUey said.

The development plans forJef-
ferson call for seven buildings on
the eight acre site and an ul-
timate enrollment of 6.“)0 stu-
dents in eights years.

The old Theological Seminary
center at First and Broadway was

Kentucky New 2-Party State, Jewell Asserts

Results of the Kentucky gubernatorial election Tues-
day can be explained without referring to national is-
sues, says Dr. Malcolm E. Jewell, professor of political
science and a specialist in voting behavior.

”Even though there was some resentment against
national policies in Kentucky, the outcome would have
been the same, regardless ofthe national situation, “when
the size of the Republican majority is considered," he
added.

”Fundamentally." Dr. jewell continued, uKentucky
now is a two-party state and there are signs of a ma-
turing two-party system."

He said people tend to forget this. “Every time
a Republican winner comes along they are surprised.
While this does not often happen in the governor's
election, the race was close four years ago."

Higher Adult Education May Be

He added that Kentucky voters have been voting
Republican in national legislative races. “Every time
a Democrat votes Republican, it becomes easier to vote
Republican next time. And every time a Republican
wins in a national election, it becomes easier for Re-
publicans to win at the state level. It is not surprising
that Republicans could win.

”Obviously, the Republican party was much better
organized and more aggressive during this campaign,
since it was the first time in many years the party
thought it could win. It put on a professional cam-
paign, well-financed with much advertising, and well-
done advertising. "

Dr. Jewell noted that there was no one specific
issue on either the Democratic or Republican side.
He said “there probably was a fairly strong feeling

among the voters that it was time for a change. It
was felt it was time to give the other side a chance."

The big difference, he continued, is that in the
past, Democrats tended to vote for the other faction
of the Democratic party, and it did not occur to them
to vote Republican. The other faction failed in the
primary election, so now the voters expressed their
dissatisfaction by voting Republican.

“In Kentucky there now is a growing availability
of the Republican party as an alternative to Demo-
cratic dissatisfaction. There is bound to be resent-
ment when the party in power has been in for a long
time," he added.

“Kentucky is becoming one of the most competitive
states when it comes to a struggle between the two
parties."

 

“Biggest Business,’ Sloan Predicts

By the year 2000 the biggest
business in the nation will be
higher adult education if current
growth patterns continue, Dr.
Denver Sloan, director of the
correspondence study program
said Monday.

Basing his statement on a
six-year study, ”Higher Adult
Education: Its Present and Fu-
ture," just released by the As-
sociation of University Evening
Colleges and the National Uni-
versity Extensron Association,
Dr. Sloan noted that the growth

of higher adult education is pro-
ceeding at a faster rate than that
of undergraduate study at Amer-
ican colleges and universities.
It is far exceeding predictions
of a similar study published only
three years ago.

/

pilation and analysis of program
and registration data provided
annually since 1960 by 233 of the
nation's major colleges and uni-
versities, which mke up the

membership of the two higher a-
dult education associations.
According to the report, nearly
22 million people will be register-
ed in higher adult education pro-
grams by the end of the century.
The report notesthat the num-

increased 26.8 percent during the
six years. The increase in regis-
trations has been twice that in
programs, with an average in-
crease of 9.2 percent to an over-
all increase of 61.9 percent.

Loan Requests

Due Immediately

LOUISVILLE (AP) - Ken-
tucky college students needing
loans to meet second-semester
tuition expenses are being urged
to submit applications immedi—
ately.

A student finance official said
Monday that a current shortage
of funds means only about 700
loans will be made available,
and these on a first-come, first-
serve basis.

Billy Hunt explained that at
an average loan rate of about
$700, the $500,000 available for
college and vocational student
loans would stretch only to this
number given out.

Hunt is executive secretary of
the State Council of Higher Ed-
ucation which administers the
loan program for the Kentucky
Higher Education Assistance
Authority.

Under the guaranteed loan
program, a student must get a
financial institution such as a
bank, savings and loan associa-
tion or credit union to approve
a college loan at six percent
interest rate.

'! he following statement was approved by
a meeting planning the demonstration
against the Fort Detrick US Army Bio-
logical Center on November 15:

On November 15 recruiters from the
US Army Biological Center, Fort De-
trick, will be at this University seeking
students in microbiology. What goes on
at Fort Detrick? The literature supplied
by Fort Detrick makes the following
claims:

”Fort Detrick is for those interested
in the opportunity for pioneer research,
personal enrichment, advanced study,
pleasant living and service to country.
There is freedom of thought of publicaw
tion and of creative research. it is a place
where major contributions are being made
to mans knowledge in the biological
and medical fields. Some work must be
classified as a matter of national secur-
ity, but many reports are published in
the leading scientific journals. (4000 in
16 years) It would be hard to find a more
pleasant place to live than the small
town of Frederick, Maryland, only 45
minutes from both Washington and Bal-
timore.

There is a sense of mission at Fort
Detrick. Without a constantly growing
fund of knowledge our country would soon
be at a disadvantage in a cold or hot war.
Research at Fort Detrick assists defense
strategists 1n the never-endingtask of keep-
ing the US alert and prepared by being
inthe vanguard of scientific development.
For many Fort Detrick scientists this con-
tribution to our nation's defense and free-
dom is not shrugged off lightly. Not much
is said about it but the feeling is in the
air."

To find out the real purpose of this
institution is not easy but two articles
in the January 13 and 9.0, 1967 issues of
Science, the Journal of the American As-
sociation for the Advancement of Science,
tell a terrifying story.

Fort Detrick is, as it claims to be, a
well endowed microbiological research
center. Basic research on micro-organisms
is carried out there. But much of the
work is like medicine turned inside out.
It consists in part, of efforts to breed
into pathogenic organisms precisely these
characteristics-such as resistance to anti-
biotics, that medical researchers would
like to see eradicated. '

Immunization is studied in terms of
protection of one's own populatiOn against
the use of disease by our own forces.
Many of the most deadly diseases caused
by bacteria and viruses are being studied:
anthrax, dysentery, brucellosis, glanders,
plague, Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
dengue fever and yellow fever.

Plant diseases are alSO studied, e.g. re-
cently an award was given for studies
on rice blast fungus, a disease which
normally damages Asian rice crops.

Detrick is said to be the home 'of
aerobiology, the study of airborne in-

Letters To The Editor

Is a campus of over 14,700 to go un-
heard of in the patriotic stand of giving
moral support to our men who have been
fighting and dying so others can share
the American way of life?

I must offer this opportunity to our
campus organizations, (Student Govern-
ment, Student Board Activities, and In-
ter Fraternity Council) to work together
or separately but do something now -—to
make a soldier's life a little brighter.
It's bad enough to imagine what the
fighting is like but the isolation and
loneliness are equally horrible to the
soldiers.

So let's get something going. I have
no connections with the organizations in
question but I will offer my services
to whomever will get the ball rolling.
It is my hope others will join or cooper-
ate with whatever these groups may de-
cide. This must be done or else suffer
the shame of being unconcerned.

made in their literature there is consid-

erable restraint on the researchers. Only
about 15 percent of their findings are
published through conventional scientific
channels; the rest become part of the
secret literature managed by the Defense
Department.

These restrictions on the dissemination
of the results of their work make their
claim of freedom farcical and brings up
the question of the role of this Univer-
sity in sponsoring their recruiting here.

In 1964 the Army spent $117 million
on CBW research. Figures for recent years
are unavailable. The National Academy
of Sciences sponsors a program of post—
:loctoral “resident research associate:
ships" designed to bringtalent to Detrick.
The American Society of Microbiology
maintains a permanent Detrick advisory
committee. The president of the ASM in
19/66 was the screntific director of De-
trick.

Many universities do research spon-
sored by Detrick. Much money also goes
to industry. Arthur D. Little. Inc., Gen-
eral James Gavin, president, and Dupont
are prominent contributors to the pro-

Igram.

The identity of biological agents clas-
sified for use is unknown. References to
their existence have been made. The char-
acteristics vary considerably.

For example, Spotted Mountain fever
causes fever, joint and muscular pains,
sometimes delirium, coma, convulsions
and tremors. Persistent effects may include
deafness, impaired vision and anemia.
Mortality in untreated cases averages 20
percent but may run as high as 80 per-
cent.

Unclassified Army manuals state:
“Their main value appears to lie in pro-

ducing mass casualties over large areas
with resultant physical and psychological
effects that could weaken or destroy the
target groups ability to wage war."

Thousands of scientists (including
some from UK) in 1966 signed a petition
to President Johnson urging an “end to
employment of antipersonnel and anticrop
weapons in Vietnam." They pointed out
that “US. forces have begun the large
scale use of anticrop and non lethal"
anti-personnel weapons in Vietnam . . .
this sets a dangerous precedent as use of
one CB weapon weakens barriers to the
use of others. No lasting distinction can
be made between the incapacitatrng and
lethal weapons or between chemical and
biological warfare. The great va
