No phones

at stadium
for opener

By BILL PINKSTON
Kernel Staff Writer

Permanent telephone lines have not yet
been installed in the new Commonwealth
Stadium, nor will they be ready for the
stadium‘s debut Saturday.

What this means, essentially, is that
radio accounts of the UK-VPI football
games, which ordinarily would be carried
by phone line to the radio station before the
signal is broadcast, will have to be handled
differently.

IN ADDITION. sports writers who must
call or send their stories via telecopy
machines to their home office, will also
have to alter procedures.

A special phone network to facilitate the
physician‘s exchange wiill be established,
and, except in cases of dire emergency,

the general public will not be able to place
calls from the stadium.

The crux of the matter is the strike by
members of Communications Workers of
America on General Telephone Co. of
Kentucky. If General, which holds a
contract with UK, installs the lines, CMW
might picket the stadium project.

THE STADIUM IS a union construction
job, and if CMW pickets the site, other
unions would probably honor the picket
line and stop work. UK officials are taking
no chances on the possibility of a work
stoppage and have requested General not
to enter the stadium site.

“We are not allowing the telephone
employees into the stadium because we
are afraid a labor dispute might jeopar-
dize completion of the stadium,” said
Lawrence Forgy, UK vice-president for
business affairs.

In order to accommodate differing needs
in absence of phone lines, the University
has had to implement a variety of
strategies.

Librarians
'uncomfortable
over ruling

By JOHN VAUGHAN
Associated Press Writer

LOUISVILLE. Ky. —~ Although they are
reluctant to admit it, Kentucky public
librarians appear to have been made
uncomfortable by the Supreme Court’s
recent decisions on pornography and
obscenity.

Not that the rulings have altered the
normal operations of libraries—they
haven‘t. The discomfort comes from a
sense of the library’s traditionally
vulnerable position in the community, and
from a fear that, as a result of the court
rulings, library book collections may be
subjected to a closer scrutiny by self-
appointed guardians of public morality.

ON Jl'NIC 2t the court—for the first time
in 16 years—agreed to meet headon the
issues of free speech, pronography and the
coomunity's right to distinguish between
the two.

Rejecting any theoretical “national"
standards of acceptability. a narrow court
majority ruled that states and local

communities could banwand punish—the
printing and sale of works “which portray
sexual conduct in a patently offensive way
and which, taken as a whole, do not have
serious literary, artistic, political or
scientific value."

In deciding whether a work is obscene,
juries are now free to apply the tastes and
standards of ”average persons," using
“contemporary community standards."

REACTION TO the court decision was
swift and predictable among civil liber-
tarians-who see it as a major limitation
on First Amendment rights-and those
concerned with the book trade.

One publisher called the ruling reckless,
others described it as reactionary or
regressive. The American Library
Association has viewed it with con-
siderable alarm, and Justice William 0.
Douglas. in a dissent from the majority
opinion. flatly predicted “raids on
libraries."

Interviews with librarians in Kentucky‘s
larger cities suggest, however, that the
chief effect of the rulings here has been a
psychological one. There have been no
raids on book collections. no grand juries
impaneled. no threats from the com-
munity.

Bad slde ot the moon ll

 

By PAULA BIGGERSTAFF

The opening of fall 1973 at UK brought
20,000 students more phone booths, less
parking areas and volumes of depart-
mental paternalism.

High on the list of those giving the
fatherly numbo-jumbo is the University
Counseling and Testing Center. In case
anyone doubts this, they should read the
“Statement to the Faculty from the
University Counseling and Testing Cen-
ter", dated August 31.

Faculty members are urged to identify
students who exhibit vocational indecision,
higher-than-normal levels of tension,
social withdrawal, depression, or con-
fusion. Upon recognition of such students,
the doting professors are asked to refer
these creatures to the Counseling Center.

The obligin‘ Center, with genuine in-
terest and concern, gives the troubled in-
dividual a counselor. All records are kept
strictly confidential.

No one can dispute the fact that there
are times in which students, all of them,
do need and seek advice. One can question,
however, the inaccessibility of this service
to the entire student body.

There are 380 black students on UK‘s
campus, yet there is not one black coun-
selor.

The incredibly high drop-out (push-out?)
rate for blacks at UK (about 52.4 per cent)
precludes any notion that blacks don‘t
exhibit vocation indecision, social with~

drawal, or another trait. Blacks
sometimes do have problems dealing
with the majority white UK environment.

The Office of Minority Student Affairs,
with its limited staff and budget, cannot
afford to be counseling 380 students. And it
certainly is not worth walking way over to
the Old Agricultural Science Building,
climbing up 57 steps, and being greeted by
a painted, white face with an empty smile.

White counselors simply cannot relate to
the black experience, no matter how
sympathetic he-she may be. One potent
black expression of hatred against a white
racist, would decompose almost any white
person's poise.

The black student population has in-
creased roughly, percentage-wise, from a
fraction of one per cent in 1966 to almost 2
per cent now. It is high time that the
Counseling and Testing Center, as well as
the University, realizes that it must
maintain and increase its minority student
population if it wants to decrease its racist
image, and if they like HEW funds.

This can only be done if blacks and other
minorities are offered the support needed
for dealing with studies, problem faculty,
and personal problems

Campus ‘stinks
of discrimination'

As I hit the campus scene an unbearable
stink of discrimination was at hand. To
enforce hours upon freshmen women and
not on freshmen men is obviously a sexist
and unethical practice! It is demoralizing
to have festered a sore of injustice for so
long. Not only is itan insult to all women to
be given an adjustment period but a direct
breaking of the fourteenth amendment. To
continue to lock up your women is unlawful
and in direct opposition to this university’s
stand on Equal Rights and Equal Op-
portunity! This Victorian left over must be
corrected by demanding abolishment of
hours.

Free U:

‘intellectual beacon'

According to my informants the Free
University, one of the few intellectual
beacons on this campus, is in grave danger
of termination. If this is allowed to occur
we shall all be poorer.

UK has had, for much too long, the
undeserved reputation of being an in-
tellectual wasteland, a cow college
hovering on the brink of academic
disaster, and of value only as a repository

for the folksy, Appalachian wisdom of the
Yokums, Hatfields, and McCoys.

In fact, a little over a year ago when l

Psychological Association’s Program

Committee I was confronted, quite bluntly,
with our external appearance by the
distinguished jurist, David Bazelon. Judge
Bazelon had, earlier, offered to work with
Psychologists in promoting improved
rehabilitation services for prisoners. Since
the theme of our annual meeting was
Psychology and the Law we should. we
felt, do all in our power to get Judge
Bazelon to address our members. I called
Judge Bazelon, extended our invitation
and offered to adjust our meeting time to
suit his convenience. The Judge was both
cordial and kind in refusing our invitation
but on two separate occasions he referred
to our State and this University as “being
in the sticks". Taken aback, l defended our
cause quite vigorously pointing out that we
were a progressive, modern, and liberal

dedicated faculty concerned about
teaching and excited about teaming. I
cited the Free University and the Year-In-
Action as prime examples of our in-
tellectual foresight.

active student body and an, on-the-whole.

Now the Free U is in danger because of
the lack of financial support. If the Free U
is allowed to die then we have taken one
more backward step and have given those
students who are concerned about the
world outside and the frontiers of
knowledge another slap in the teeth.

Defending the intellectual faith in this
institution is difficult enough as it is and
keeping up with the intellectual times is
already impossible because of the dif-
ficulties in Getting new courses into the
curriculum. The Free U is one of the few
candles in the darkness. If this flame is
snuffed I intend to write Judge Bazelon.

DUBLIN—Curiously for the land of
Joyce, Yeats and Beckett, apart from
some graffiti on Belfast walls—“Is
there a life before death?” and a crop
of jokes, there has been little memo-
rable writing about the Northern Irish
conflict.

True, some poets on the Nationalist
side, John Montague, Seamus Heaney
and Tom Kinsella have given utter-
ance in poetic form, but the nation
still awaits the coming of a latterday
Sean O’Casey, or a Brendan Behan,
for that matter.

The tradition of Irish humor has
been maintained, though the jokes may
be studied for more than for their
humor, which is often not apparent to
outsiders, largely on the Socialist and
Republican side.

The Scots-Irish tradition is not tra-
ditionally associated with humor. Their
most noteworthy gesture in the pres-
ent conflict came on the morning of
internment when Protestant children
sang versions of “Where’s Your Daddy
Gone?” outside the homes of Catholics
whose pater familias had been “lifted.”

Even cruder was the ghetto Catho-
lics’ chant and taunt after three Scot-
tish soldiers were shot dead by an
I.R.A. man. Inspired by the traditional
Celtic (Catholic) and Rangers (Protes-
tant) soccer rivalry, the Catholic
youngsters wrote on walls: “Celtic 3,
Rangers 0.” Suffer the little children.

But in an interesting sociological
commentary on what people will laugh

 

a page of opinion from inside and outside the University community

  

 

  

 

at, at such a time, the educated classes
on the Nationalist side have spawned
a crop of I.R.A. jokes which reflect the
contradictory attitudes of condescend-
ing ambivalence —half condemnatory,
half supportive — that characterizes
much of the Catholic population’s pos-
ture toward the Provisional campaign.
An example:

Question: “How many I.R.A. men
does it take to kidnap a Unionist?”

Answer: “Four—one to drive the
getaway car and three to write the
ransom note.”

Or: “Did you hear about the I.R.A.
man that hijacked the submarine?”

“He demanded a ransom of £l0,000
and a parachute.”

together original. In only slightly al-

tered form they have been told in
various parts of the world as “Polish
jokes” or “Italian jokes”)

Lower down the social scale in Ire-
land in the ranks of the Provos. devout
Catholic ghetto supporters, there is a
different kind of joke. For instance,
when the I.R.A. suitcase bombing cam-
paign was at its height the warning
system was such that it was said that
when I.R.A. leader Sean MacStiofain
died and went to heaven a horrified St.
Peter told him, “You can't come in
here"; to which MacStiofain replied,
“I’m not trying to come in. I’m giving
you four minutes warning to get out."

When MacStiofain himself was ar-
rested by the Southern Government
and bombings threatened the South
also as he lay near death on a hunger
and thirst strike, he was visited by

 

the present Roman Catholic Arch-
bishop of Dublin, Dr. Dermot Ryan,
and his predecessor, Dr. John Charles
MacQuaid.

A Catholic priest who disapproved
the visit said later that the Provision—
als had issued a bracelet to their mem-
bers stamped, “I'm an I.R.A. man. In
case of an emergency send for an
Archbishop.”

  

After the Archepiscopal descent and
a visit by a Father McManus, whose
brother was an I.R.A. leader who died
in an explosion, the deeply religious
MacStiofain came off his thirst strike.
His subsequent survival on hunger
strike has been ascribed by a Dublin
wit to his daily consumption of “pro-
tein-enriched Hosts."

  

This last may be verified, the joke
continues. by dialing the Curragh mili-
tary hospital and asking for “extension
Ate Ate Ate.”

There is also a true story concerning
one ardent Provisional supporter, who,
being somewhat accident-prone, was
normally not taken out on operations
by his friends but who at last persuad-
ed them to allow him to join them one
night in hurling sticks of gelignite at
British troops—“the colonels.” When
he threw his stick to the accompani-
ment of suitable expletives, his little
dog, named Colonel, needless to say,
retrieved it and dropped it at his feet!

So though the Irish are denied peace
and must await literature, they still
have laughter.

WESTPORT, Conn—For one bright
year of my childhood I was pure, un-
adulterated Irish. Later I was to dis-
cover that the American-born Currys,
Devlins and McGoverns of my small-
town Pennsylvania neighborhood
qualified as more irish than I, though
I was born in Dublin, because I was
Jewish, too. Evidently one diluted the
other, and neither was a state of grace
in that time or place. But for that
shining year I was five and back with
my mother in Ireland where I be-
longed. I wanted to stay forever.

To an apartment-bred child, my
grandparents' farm in Tullow, County
Carlow. was a free, green, magical
world. Never before had I tasted
warm, bubbling milk or smelled sweet

Funny, you don't look Irish

hay in a barn. Never had I gathered
newly laid eggs or become friends
with cows and a donkey.

Indoors, the big house rang with
rich brogue and the girlish giggles of
six aunts. Mother bloomed anew in
this loving circle and I felt part of a
real family at last. They taught me
Irish songs and poems, gave me piano
lessons, pampered and spoiled me; so
did the nuns at the Brigidine Convent
just down the road. The girls had all
attended convent school, but mother
was the first of them to marry and I,
the first exhibit. All the way from

America!
Though I was loath to heme the

countryside at all, mother had friends
and errands in Dublin. She would show
me the Georgian house on Rathmines

Road where I was born. We would
look for American funny-papers and
pretzels, which I missed. And my
paternal grandmother was waiting to
meet me. I was neither her first nor
only grandchild, but my father was her
favorite and across the sea.

The gulf between us was palpable
that day, and part of me still envies
the strong ties of heritage that hound
a whole community together and left
us alone on the other side. This com-
monality was their bulwark against
such apartness. It made my father
feel his Jewishness all his life. But
that bond of Jew to Jew had vanished
for mother and me in the Irish coun—
tryside. Vulnerable to the psycholog-
ical inroads of an Ireland we loved,
We fled home to Tullow.

Over the years. when l have looked
back to Tullow with longing, I have
wondered what prompted my grand-
father to detach himself from this
huddle of Jews in Dublin and solo
into the hinterlands. He loved ani-
mals. they said, especially horses, and
yearned for the land, but that hardly
seems to tell it. There must have
been other factors—educational per-
haps—that differentiated him from
the other Dublin "Poor Cousins" even
then. All of them had found refuge
therefrom Russian pogroms, orthreats
of pogroms, but he had bold dreams.
And the enterprise to pursue them.
He took himself a cultivated, Frank-
furt-bred Wlft‘, brought her back and
headed south. They thrived in Tullow.

For graduate quality
Eardley urges frosh limit

By GAIL FITCH
Kernel Staff Writer

In an effort to improve the
quality of architects graduating
from UK. Anthony Eardley.
Dean of the College of Ar-
chitecture, has organized an ad
hoc committee to limit the
number of students majoring in
this field.

“We are considering accepting
about 70 freshmen majors each
year. We expect about half that
number to receive a degree,"
said Eardley. Presently there are
103 freshmen majoring in ar-
chitecture.

“WE MAY have a graduate
program by next fall,“ he said.
“We have not gone through any
preliminary approval from the
University yet. This program is
still in the planning stage."

Many of the students majoring
in architecture simply do not
make it through the program,
Eardley said. They are either put
on academic probation by the
University or fail to pass their
architecture design courses.

“For example, last year there
were 110 students enrolled in the
junior design class. By the end of
the year the number of juniors
passing dropped to 55. In all
probability, this number will
drop again before they
graduate.” he added.

“THIS IS obviously a wasteful
system. It is obvious some
students just can't make it. I
believe it is cleaner and kinder to
tell students early they will, in
all likelihood, not pass our
program than after three or four
years in training. This plan is
more humane and less wasteful
of the institution and the time
involved.”

Though a decision has not yet
been made, Eardley expects to
require a competitive entrance
exam for freshmen and a strict
review of the students’ high
school average.

“We are considering requiring

freshmen to take the Architects
Aptitude Test and to score an
acceptable grade. This test has
been in national use for this
purpose in a number of state
schools across the nation," he
said. .
“IN THIS WAY we are trying
to pre-weed out students who will
be weeded out eventually by the
system anyway,“ he continued.
If the proposal to use the test is
agreed upon, the college will be
able to quickly decide which
students will be accepted and
which will not. For students in the
middle ground a personal in-
terview will be required to make

the decision as _to their ac-
ceptance or rejection.

With problems of overcrowding
and a large number of poor
students, Eardley is of the
opinion that the exceptional
student architect does not get the
attention he needs.

“THERE ARE A lot of
mediocre architects out there
building mediocre buildings. I
have a responsibility to the
profession first. It is wrong for
professors to turn out mediocre
architects." he said.

By eliminating early the poorer
students and those which do not
have the proper aptitude for
architecture. Eardley believes.
“We will have a higher quality
graduate architect than at this
moment."

Eardley said he does not
believe enlarging his teaching
staff or getting more space would
solve the problem of over-
crowding to his satisfaction.

“IF THE University said
tomorrow ‘Here are the funds to
get all the professors you need,‘ I
would probably say we don’t
want any more," he said.

“We have a faculty family
here. They all know each other
and they communicate well. In
my opinion there is a right size
for an architecture school and it’s
not 500. That‘s too large; there

would be warring factions of
philosophy," he continued.

Eardley has also formed
another ad hoc committee to look
into the question of a graduate
program in the College of Ar-

"IF WE (‘AN move fast enough
to get approval, it is just possible
to have the graduate program on
a very small scale in the near
future," said Eardley.

“There is no question that we
need a graduate program here."
he continued. “The question is
exactly what kind. It would be a
minimum of a two year program
in any case.“

Though it is only in the
suggestion stage at this time.
there are at least two possible
programs being considered,
Building Technology and Urban-
City Design.

“AT THIS TIME it’s my hunch
and my personal preference to
establish the Urban Design
program. which would include
mass dwelling problems,” said
Eardley. “The need and demand
for such post graduate study is
increasing. If this program is
accepted and established, it
would be absolutely unique to the
North American continent."

Allende's 'prediction'
becomes ironic reality

By WILLIAM F. NICHOLSON
Associated Press Writer

President Salvador Allende
once told foreign newsmen in
Chile that the only way he would
leave office before the end of his
term would be in a pine box.

The quip was designed to un-
derscore Allende‘s determination
to see through his pledge to “lead
Chile down the road to
socialism." But it turned into
reality Tuesday in a military
coup that toppled Allende‘s three-
year-old regime.

POLICE OFFICIALS said he
committed suicide rather than
surrender.

The 65-year-old physician had
spent much of his life seeking the
presidency. He was elected only
on the fourth try, in October 1970,
and only after the Congress voted
to confirm his 36.3 per cent
plurality at the polls.

Despite Chile's slide into
political and economic chaos
during his rule, Allende never
wavered from his determination
to stay in command and socialize
the Chilean economy.

ALLENDE THE public man
presented Chileans a dandified
figure before his downfall. He
was short and stocky with a full
head of auburn hair that his
detractors hinted had been dyed.

With a trim moustache, he
wore hand-tailored suits and
sport jackets. He enjoyed the
perquisites and pleasures high
office can bring, including im-
ported whisky, Chilean wines and
the company of pretty women.

But Allende was a different
man in the political arena, the
only leftist Chilean politician
capable of uniting half a dozen

often quarreling Marxist and-

leftist parties.

 

lT WAS HIS forging them into a
united front thatwon him the 1970
election. During the three
tumultuous years that followed——
including Cabinet reshuffles,
inflation of 323 per cent in one
year and food shortages-it was
Allende who kept the Popular
Unity coalition afloat.

But even he began to worry in
public in recent months as
national strikes brought the
already crippled Chilean
economy to its knees.

Army Gen. Herman Brady.
commander of the key Santiago
garrison, said Sept. 2 in an off-
the-record interview at a private
home: “I'm afraid the armed
forces are going to have to take
over. This situation can't go on."

But Allende remained publicly
serene, declaring that he was
confident in the armed forces and
in his leftist supporters.

If you are looking for a coun

perhaps you should contact the

The Drop-In Center, whicl

now becoming more available tc
University students and adults.

ALTHOUGH THE MAIN
function of the Center is dealing
with drug emergencies and
providing drug information, it
actually handles almost any
social problems. Counseling is
done individually and in groups.

The Center is also a referral
agency. Anyone who has a
problem which can be handled
more efficiently by another
agency is referred to that specific
service.

Presently, there are two staff
members and a director—
Marshall Fields. Occasionally
other personnel are present to
help with particular projects or
problems. All staff members
have had prior experience with

Fees due Sept.28

The deadline for payment of
registration fees is Sept. 28,
warns Anthony Day, manager of
Billings and Collections. Persons
failing to pay by that date will
have their registration voided.

The number of persons
remaining to pay has not been
calculated, but as of Aug. 31,
approximately 13,000 had paid—
two-thirds of that total by mail.
And exact accounting will be
drawn up Sept. 17, so that
students with bills outstanding

may be reminded of their
precarious status at the
University.
