SG To Request

Apology From
Louisiana Mayor
By JANICE BARBER
Assistant Managing Editor
Student Government, showing their disapproval of the "discourteous and disrespectful treatment" given to two black UK
football players in Baton Rouge
on Oct. 19, moved Thursday to
request an apology to the team
from the mayor of Baton Rouge.
Athletes Wilbur Hackett and
Houston Hogg were refused service in a Baton Rouge grill last
Saturday following the Wildcats'
13-- 3
loss toLSU.
Acting with speed and apparent unanimity, the government passed a bill introduced
by representatives Joe Dawahare
and Jerry Legere to have reports
of the incident sent to the mayor
of Baton Rouge, the governor of
Louisiana and the president of
LSU, and to ask for an apology.
The bill read in part, "Whereas visiting athletic teams are
treated with respect and courtesy
while in Lexington and whereas
similar treatment is expected to
be given the University of Kentucky athletic teams while at
other schools and whereas such
treatment was not given to certain members of the University
of Kentucky athletic teams . .
to certain members of the football
team on Saturday . . . enacted
that an apology be requested of
the Mayor
The report of the incident
will be drawn up by SG President Wally Bryan and the academic affairs committee.
SG To Investigate Towing Of Cars
Suspending the rules, the government also passed a bill empowering the standing SG service
committee to investigate the towing and impounding of cars
parked on the campus.
Introduced by John Cooper,
member of Students for Action
nd Responsibility (SAR), the bill
asked for the investigation because of the "great inconvenience

cars" and the "negative attitude
toward UK" that results.
The bill failed to be brought
to the floor on the first reading,
but succeeded on a call for reconsideration.

Strange days have found us
Strange days have tracked us down
They're going to destroy
Our casual joys.
We shall go on playing
Or find a new town.
Strange eyes fill strange rooms
Voices will signal their tired end
The hostess is grinning
Her guests sleep from sinning
Hear me talk of sin
And you know this is it.
Strange days have found us
And through their strange hours
We linger alone,
Bodies confused,
Memories misused,
As we run from the day
To a strange night of stone.

some discussion on whether or not

A suggestion by Pratt to set
up a committee to investigate
the Alumni Association was accepted by CARSA. The investigation is to determine the Alumni
Association's right to become involved in student affairs. The
members of the committee are;
Pratt, Steve Hanson, Gerry Kiefer
and Watkins.
CARSA also decided to distribute a petition which will support the Kernel's right to freedom

The Real Issue
The disgusting and degrading
treatment of black football players
Houston Hogg and Wilbur Hackett
brings the whole issue of race and
athletics into clear focus. It was the
existence of acts like the exclusion
of Hogg and Hackett from a grille
in Louisiana which was behind the
recent protests in the Olympics by
disgruntled Blacks.
The University should demand
an apology, of course, as well as
some kind of assurance that there
will be no recurrance of this kind
of action. But this is only common
courtesy to the two athletes involved, and leaves much to be done
about remedying the real issue.
The real issue involved is the
racist nature of this society. What
kinds of actions must black ath

letes be asked to endure from this
society just because they are black?
What avenues are open to them to
protest and remedy these conditions?
So long as situations such as
the one in Louisiana continue to
occur, we may be sure that black
athletes will continue to protest
their treatment as something less
than human. It is up to the University to see that such actions do
not happen again and to see that
our black athletes are not embarrassed by any racist displays at
athletic events here in Lexington.
As it stands right now, the University community should be more
outraged at conditions in this country than by the actions of two
Olympic athletes.

To the Editor of the Kernel
This letter is in reply to Mr. Thomas
A. Jackson's letter to the Kernel on Tuesday, Oct. 15. He advised Negroes on the
UK campus to "grin and bear it" when
"DIXIE" was played and to concentrate
more on obtaining a degree as a means
of raising the black image in the white
community.
I wish to inform Mr. Jackson of a few

3

The laws
and political procedures of our" fair land"
make it possible that no minority group,
no matter how small, has to "grin and
bear" anything. Mr. George Wallace represents a minority, but I hesitate to say
that he is grinning and bearing it. The
Student Government, as a part of the governmental institution of America, has
offered us as a minority group Black
students a way to do something besides
"grin and bear it," and I am proud to
know that there are at least a few governmental institutions on the smaller level
which still respond to minority rights.
Also Mr. Jackson, it is very true that
a black engineer does far more for the
Rlack image than the banningof'Dixie,"
but you see, the banning of "Dixie"
is upon us now. Have no fear that we
will become so hung up on banning
"Dixie" that we will lose sight of our
real goal and fail to attain our degrees
from this fair school. I want to assure
you that we are more than capable of
doing both, and when it is all over, we
will have gotten two things accomplished.
So keep in mind Mr. Jackson that it is
not necessary for us as a black minority
on the UK campus to "grin and bear"
anything! And as long as there is a
true black student left breathing on this
campus, we will do more than "grin and
bear" the playing of "Dixie"!
