Evangelist, cleans to discuss free speech

By DAVID BROWN
Assistant Managing Editor

The Dean of Students will meet with
evangelist Jimmy Conyers today to dis-
cuss Conyers‘ right to speak on campus.
and University regulations governing free
speech.

Conyers. who met with three members
of the Dean of Students” office last week,
said he hopes to come to “some kind of
agreement with the Dean.‘

Conyers spoke from the office tower
plaza fountain on Nov. 24 in violation of the
free speech University regulation. Univer-
sity regulations state that speakers are
limited to free speech areas at the Student
Center patio and in front of the Student
Center.

Joe Burch, dean of students, said the
meeting is to inform Conyers that “he has
to follow the rules and reguations."

“We’re trying to work reasonably with
him, and from his point of view he is being
reasonable," Burch said.

“From my point of view he could have
been more reasonable when we ap-

proached him with regard to following
reasonable regulations governing free
speech."

“I‘m not saying he can’t speak at all. but
he can‘t decide where and when.” Burch
said.

Conyers said “I‘m not trying to be
smart, but I don‘t think it‘s sunk into their
heads that the Lord sent me. God led me
there and I have the right to break the
rules."

“When the rules go against God, then
God slaps them down in a friendly way,"
Conyers said. “God wasn‘t getting stu-
delits' attention down there (at the student
centerl."

.\ Lsociafe Dean of Students Frank Harris
said, “We want to solve a problem without
creating another problem “This is not as
simple as i' might appear on the surface.“

Burch agreed. “Conyers made it clear
ha? i’ would suit his purposes" if he were
arrested, he said.

“There are other legal remedies“ that
could be used to remedy the situation,
Burch said. He said he did not know what
they were yet.

The student Government tSGl Student
Affairs Committee has been polling resi~
dents of three UK residence balls to
determine their feelings about coeduca-
tional living.

The committee polled the residents of
Blanding l and III. the only two coed
dorms. in October to “see how people in
the coed dorm felt about their living,
especially visitation policies," said Com-
mittee Chairwoman Melinda DeJarnette,
SG senator—at-large.

Senator-at-I.arge Mark Stover. also a
committee member. said the results of the
blanding poll showed 81 per cent of the
residents favored 24-hour visitation and 95
per cent favored an increase in external
visitation. Fifty-six per cent of the
residents responded to the poll which was
left in their mailboxes.

The Blanding results also indicated that
70 per cent of the residents favored making
Keeneland Hall coed.

Harris said. ”We want to avoid making a
martyr of the individual.“

Other areas of conflict exist. Burch said.
“Some limitations are placed on the
University by the state constitution
limiting use of facilities for religious
purposes," Burch said.

“We‘re not willing to let him set up shop
for religious purposes.“ Burch said.

But Conyers says he does not conduct
religious business. “I just talk about my
life.“

Conyers requested use of the University
theater for his presentation, but Burch
said he was told he could not personally
schedule the theater.

Harris said “We tried to convince him
that we didn‘t extend any privilege to other
peopler-Athey were sponsored by regis-
tered student organizations.“

4 Conyers had argued that other speakers,
whom he felt were delivering religious
talks, had used the theater, Harris said.

Burch said, “I’m not aware of any
student organization that has expressed an
interest in inviting Jimmy to speak."

“We feel men should have the same

Stover said when he presented results of
the Blanding poll to Dean of Residence
Halls Rosemary Pond she suggested the
committee poll Keeneland residents to
assess their feelings on making Keeneland
coed.

So last week the committee polled
Keeneland residents. Stover said the
results showed 62 per cent of the Keene-
land residents ln favor of making the dorm

conducted just like the last one." Stover
said.

On the basis of Blanding poll results, the
Student Senate passed a resolution Nov. 3
calling for an increase in external visita-
tion for all dorm residents.

Stover said the committee planned to
“discuss this week whether to introduce a
resolution to the senate calling for
Keeneland hall to become coed.“ He said
he also planned to discuss the matter with
Pond.

If the senate passes the resolution it will
go to Pond for consideration. Pond said,
“From my office it (the resolution) will go
on up the ladder through Dean of Students
.ioe Burch to Vice President for Student
Affairs Robert Zumwinkle.

“We'll dig in and give it our full
attention." Pond said. She said she has no
idea if Keeneland Hall will become coed
and that no action will be taken this year.
“We‘re talking about 1976." Pond said.

GTE strike brings
sudden 'concern'

By Terry Gobbord

The strike against General Telephone of
Kentucky was not a week old before the
local news media were inundated with
reports of the company’s sudden concern
for maintaining customer services.

To the disgust of GenTel’s customers, a
company flack appears daily before the
TV cameras to express GTE’s distress
over serwce disruptions.

General Telephone’s public relations
office relentlessly turns Out propoganda
that w0uld make Joseph Goebbels pr0ud,
but neither the public nor GTE’s striking
employees are convinced of the company's
abrupt new interest in providing good
telephone service.

GTE officials would like to persuade the
public to believe that poor telephone
service is caused by the strike. But the
inadequacies of General Telephone‘s ser»
vice is not new to either GTE’s customers
or the employees now on strike.

Telephone workers know about the
quality of GTE's phone service from their
own working environment and from
dealing directly with the public. But GTE
officials are far rem0ved from customer
Cv’vmplaints, so the local phone service
problem is Ignored. '

nitf: ttzii TV (amoras nearby) Until next
spring, but it is nevertheless apparent to
everyone that General Telephone has
never cared about good customer service
and it doesn’t care now.

While the quality of General Telephone’s
service has become legendary in central
Kentucky, people are not generally aware
of the obstacles the company creates
which discourage employees from pro~
viding the best possible service.

Understandably local customers are
becoming increasingly frustrated with
GTE’s telephone operators, who seem to
perform more like machines than people.
But they are not aware of the pressures
under which those operators must work.

Telephone operators are ”pro-

granimed" from the first day of work to
think “to hell with the customer iust get
rid of him as soon as I can.”

From the moment an operator answers
a customer’s call, a supervisor is
demanding that the Operator dispose of
him immediately. so that the operator can
be ready to "greet” the next customer.

If an operator takes the time to assist
one of their customers and treat them as
real people at the same time, the operator
will be warned against ”wasting” too
much time fraternizing with customers.

The incident will go on the operator’s
record, and that operator will have
learned the consequences of being nice to a
GenTel customer. The operator is one step
closer to behaving as one of those
computer-like beings that General Tele-
phone cultivates.

Expediency is given top priority at
General Telephone, not courtesy. Ironical»
ly this hurry up job that GTE demands
would be a lot more efficient if the
company w0uld spend a few profit dollars
replacing the Outdated equipment which
can no longer handle Lexington‘s service
requirements.

But a telephone Operator’s hassles are
iusf minor illustrations of the outrageous
behavior GTE exhibits toward both its

The attitude GTE exhibits toward
customers is the same attitude Communi»
cation Workers of America (CWA)
members face every day at work, and now
at the bargaining table.

Since GTE has never wavered in the
exploitation of its public or its empIOyees,
both the customers and the workers are
understandably skeptical of General Tele~
phone's newfound concern for providing
good telephone service

No smoking

Editor:

On October 2, Jack C. Rlanton, Vice

PS. Sabharwal, UanOFSlly ombuds

dents not smoke in class. This request
was the result of “over 20" complaints.

i breathing cigarette smoke. Having to
sit in class for an hour to four hours
(which is the length of my studio class)
with a headache is not a fun thing to
have to do, but I do have to attend class.
Needless to say l was overjoyed to read
the ”no smoking” request.

It has now been a month and a half
and in most of my classes I’m still
getting a headache from breathing
cigarette smoke. There are people who
have quit smoking and many thanks to
you, but many people quit only because
I or someone else finally got up the
nerve to ask them not to smoke. ln the

50,000 fans

Editor:

It’s the Saturday morning of the
UK-Tennessee football game. Fifty-six
thousand fans—about 20,000 will be
students——will iam the stadium and try
desperately to urge their team to
victory.

Fifty-six thousand mouths will
scream encouragement, 112,000 eyes
will dissectevery play of the game. And
all over a stupid, tugging business
battle. And while all of this is occurring,
Jill Raymond will still be imprisoned in
a county jail in Kentucky. Why is
Raymond held captive? There seems to
be little legal reason, only a bitter old
judge and an even bitterer world hold
her captive.

We are that world. We haven’t the
time or the strength to help Raymond
and believe me—we could help her.
However, we do have the time to
actively participate in a football game
of high priced coaches, paid athletes.
and all in the name of amateur sports.

Rather than beginning a tirade
against the Halls, the Curcis, the

dominate our backward University, I
would like to plead with the UK
students. alumnus, with all peppte to
care for Raymond and to help her. Let’s
get our values straight.

l’ve only recently been awakened and
I don’t know how to get into contact
with those people trying to help
Raymond. Therefore, I’m asking the
Kernel to print the names of the leaders
or anyone who may be helpful and
where they may be contacted. I want to
help a real person. Join me.

I can see it now, the Saturday
morning of the UK-Tennessee football
game and nobody shows to watch the
paid bodies mercilessly attack each
other, but 56,000 mouths beseech a
bitter old man to free their comrade,
and 111,002 eyes glisfen with love as
Raymond ioins us again.

Fairness

Editor:

We have heard Moshe Dayan’s
version of the Palestinianlsraeli con
fiict. A sense of fair play and the ideal
of free speech reqUire that we hear the
Palestinian side The Lexzngton Coal;
tion to Support Palestine approached
the Student Center Board (SCBt to
invite a Palestinian Liberation Orqani
zation representative to speak at UK.

But SCB refuses, because it says it
has no more money for fall semester
speakers and that a Palestian Libera
tion Organization (PLO.l speaker will
not attract a large enough audience.
Should the free expression of ideas be
subservient to dollar bills? Should only
the most popular ideas or views be
expressed at UK? One man on the SCB
confided that he personally felt the
articles in the Kernel adequately
rebutted Dayan’s speech. which
“wasn’t that good anyway."

We agree that Dayan’s speech was
poor. But SCB did invite Dayan, and to
be fair and evenhanded it is SCB’s
responsibility to present Palestinian
views. Otherwise it would appear that
SCB is taking a one-sided political
position supporting Israel. The Kernel
published articles representing various
views, not lost articles rebutting
Dayan. And the articles that did rebut
Dayan were not written by SCB.

lf SCB overspent its budget, this does
not relieve its responsibility for inviting
someone voicing Palestinian concerns.
Didn’t ticket revenues cover most of the
expenses of inviting Dayan?

The Lexington Coalition to Support
Palestine is circulating a petition
requesting the Board to invite a PLO
representative to explain the problems
and rights of the Palestinian people. If
you have a sense of fair play and like
the ideal of free speech, then you might'
like to sign the petition.

Kernel, the article entitled ”Ambassa
dor informs students of Iranian govern

knowledgeable of various facts in the
MidEast to ask various questions.

First, it is stated that the Iranian
government is willing to finance their

I education. Why, then, don’t the Iranian
students return to their home country?
lnfact, the majority of Iranian students
wish to stay here, and those who do
return do so only because they cannot
obtain jobs in the US.

Why do they stay here? The salary
cannot be a problem. With a relatively
l low cost of living and the offer of
" salaries comparable to those in the

U.S., the Iranian students still wish to
remain rather than return to their
homeland. In Iran, democracy is
non existent. The press is censored and
any attempt to express dissatisfaction
with the present regime is brutally
repressed. The Shah recently an
nounced that any person opposed to the
monarchy will face either life imprison»
ment or death. This new ”law” is
inclusive of any Iranian inside or
outside of the country.

The present differences of standards
of living between the working and the
ruling class are appalling. The ruling
class masses its wealth by virtue of
selling its country’s natural and human
rescurces to foreign corporations. The
masses of people live in extreme
poverty. A worker receives $2 per

F As a recent arrival in Lexington I am
I struck by two tendencies in public
i debates printed in the Kernel. First, I
see a trend toward debating and
rejecting unfamiliar ideologies.
Second, there appears to be a pattern in
F which someone always seems to try
resolving the argument with a plug for
Jesus Christ.

The new ideology at issue is transcen‘
dental meditation (TM). First I read a
rather devout, cultish testimony writ~
ten by two authors who I assume are
transcendental meditators (Kernel,
"Transcendental education transcends
present education system,“ Nov. 15),
and today (NOV. I9, "TM is Hinduism”)
I‘ve read a rebuttal calling TM a
Hinduist heresy to Christianity.

Iwish to emphasize two points. First.
that TM practice is far removed from
conversion to Hinduism,- and second,
that although meditation appears in
various religious traditions, it is a

peasant family’s annual income is $l25
per annum. As a result, there is the
coexistence of luxurious hotels and
villas, with a starving majority who
live in shacks and die of simple
diseases, often at an early age.

This is a vast contrast to the picture
of Iran as a booming and flourishing
country, described by the U.S. press.

The Shah must cope with the Iranian
people’s resistance to this vicious
exploitation. In Iran, his response has
been the murder of striking workers,
the torturing of 40,000 political prisor
ners and the execution of 260 patriots.
The regime intimidates Iranian stu-
dents in the U.S., and their families, by
nullification of passports, and subiec
tion to recognizance procedures. The
regime exploits the financial situation
of the Iranian students, many of whom
do menial jobs to remain in this
country, while attempting to buy their
silence and coerce them to serve the
regime if possible. The Shah’s regime
hires individuals, and buys the coopera
tion of certain higher institutions to
attain this goal.

For example, the Shah grants sin
million to Georgetown University, in
return for the grant to his wife of a
doctoral degree in humanities, or
employs agents sympathetic to his
cause by way of mutual investment,
such as Armin H. Meyer, a man with a
scholarly background, head of "Cabi
net Committee to Combat Terrorism,"
to convince Iranian students to collabo
rate with the regime. Indeed, these are
good moves on the part of the Shah of
Iran. Former Ambassador Meyer, as a
part of his “business," did his best to
whitewash the image of his boss, “His

physiologically and pSychologically
beneficial technique which does not
require any religious affiliation.

TM derives from Hindu texts in much
the same way that a Boeing 747 derives
from Isaac Newton’s work on gravity.
While it is important to acknowledge
and understand Newton’s ideas and
disc0veries in order to make a thorough
study of airplanes, you can still buy
your ticketand fly in blissful ignorance.
TM indeed starts with Hindu texts, just
as Zen meditation originates in
Buddhist texts and other forms of
meditation derives from traditions of
early Christian and Jewish mysticism.
The Maharishi’s statements regarding
his conception of meditation do not
demand that practitioners adhere to
Hinduism any more than mention of
gravity in a plane requires air travelers
to read Newton. The principle which
most present-day meditators represent
is ”if it works, use it.”

The reason various forms of medita-
tion have Survived and evolved for so
many centuries is that they have
provided practitioners with meaningful

 

Maiesty the Shah." He supported the
Shah’s dictatorship, insulting the
Iranian people by declaring they were
not capable of a democratic form of
government The reply of the Iranian
students was evident in their response.
Oulof more than 40 Iranian students on
this campus, five attended the meeting,
two of Whom were there for the explicit
purpose of exposing him.

The regime of Iran is attempting to
make higher education a privilege of

rich experiences which they clearly
have felt were valuable enough to
transmit to succeeding generations. In
the last 20 or so years these effects have
been scientifically measured by
psychologists, physiologists and medi
cal researchers. Literally hundreds of
studies have been published in books
and professional journals scientifically
demonstrating that vari0us forms of
meditation, practiced regularly, lower
people’s anxiety level, metabolic rate,
blood pressure, heart rate and respira-
tion. It permits them to have richer
personal experiences, to feel more
productive, more optimistic and more
competent.

Meditation brings some individuals a
spiritual experience, and in TM the
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi offers these
people his religious framework to help
clarify this experience. However, in
addition to TM’s spiritual framework,
works about the meditative experience
have been written from a wide variety
of orientations for interested individu‘
als. The late Alan Watts, a philosopher

by the fact that Iranians currently

up collateral to ensure return to Iran "
The Shah is not interested in educating
the masses. rather he prefers their
ignorance. that he may perpetuate his
(lespiztic rule.

The Iranian Student Association has to
members out of approximately 40
Iranian students at UK.

Meditation benefits mind and body

University, writes extensively on medi
tation, as does D.T. Suzuki, a Zen
Buddhist, and Erich Fromm and
Abraham Maslow, both humanistic
psychologists. The "Journal of Trans-
personal Psychology," a recognized
professional publication, is largely
devoted to meditation related studies.

All these individuals in our present
society are dedicated to a technique
which has been passed down through
many centuries and a diversity of
cultures. The practice of meditation is
no more or less “meaningless“ than is
successful completion of many of the
assignments required of college stu-
dents, and many more meditators than
students report beneficial results from
their activities. Perhaps, then, it might
be worthwhile for each individual to
examine for himself the possibility of
meditating rather than to take serious-
ly the rash statements of people who
write articles angrily screaming, ”It's
not Christian!”
