VOL. 56, NO. 25, LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1985 12 PAGES AN INDEPENDENT STUDENT NEWSPAPER Phone call halts plans for Beal By DON WOODRUM Cardinal News Editor The most interesting thing about James E. Seal's campaign for Student Government Association president is that there will not be a campaign. Beal said he has decided not to actively campaign for the presidency due to a phone call he received from Joe Vie!, another presidential hopeful. Beal said Vie! suggested that it might be in everyone's interest if he would drop his name from consideration for the position. "I won't be actively campaigning for the job because he's (Vie I) taken all the steam out of me," Beal said. "It has had me worried all week about what to do. He has no business calling me. I could get mad about this, but it's not my style. I like to be friendly." Despite not campaigning for the presidency, Beat's name will still appear on the ballots for the April Viel says record will speak out ByT. L. STANLEY Cardinal Managing Editor Joe Viel, candidate for Student Government Association president, said he plans to run his campaign on his good record and that he may well be alone in this respect. "I think I'm the only candidate who really has a proven record," said Vie!. "And I think I have a good record." Vie!, a graduate student in the Speed Scientific School, has served as a student senator, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, member of.the SGA Executive Board and of the Speed School Student Council. Vie! said that these offices have given him the experience he deems necessary to hold the position of president of the student body. "There has only been one time in the history ofSGA that someone has been elected who had absolutely no experience, and that JAMES E. HEAL 2-3 elections, said Harold Adams, assistant vice president for student life. Beal said there is no way he could mount a good campaign after the incident. "I was expecting to give the guys a good fight," he said. "Sure, I don't have any SGA experience, but most people on campus don't even care about SGA." The main reason Vie! suggested Beal drop from the race was the similarity of the two names, Beal Continued on Pal(e 6 shows that the voters realize the importance of experience," Viet said. There is one other presidential candidate who has prior SGA ex· perience, Doug Kemper, and Viet said that he believes his own rt' cord to be "far better" th~" Kemper's.

CROOM Cardinal Editor Getting the Student Government name out to students and improving the overall structure of SGA are the two main goals of SGA presidential candidate Doug Kemper for the upcoming election April ~ - 3. ·'I feel thal in the past people have not always had a good perception of exactly what Student Government is doing for them," Kemper said. "I don't wan~. anyone to turn a corner next year without seeing something produced by Student Government. We need to get out and let the students know what their student activity fee is going for." Kemper said his administration would begin working for students from "day one. ·· including working with the orientation staff during the summer and fall. "We are really planning to broa(ien the Mentor program, and to really help welcome and invite O'Bannon pledges to excite all By JOYCE SHULTZ Cardinal Features Editor Brett O'Bannon, an Arts and Sciences sophomore, said his main objective, if elected as Student Government president, will be to give SGA credibility. He said the persuasive power of a president is the key factor in getting things done. ··students don't get excited - that's what I'm worried about," said O'Bannon. He said his job would be to make student aware of and see the need to be concerned with the issues, such as the effect of the Strategic Planning document. "The power of the president lies in the power of persuasion." One way O'Bannon plans to give SGA more credibility is by making the senators send out questionnaires to students to find out their interests. "Senators have not kept up with the students," said O'Bannon. he said he sees the DOUG KEMPER incoming freshmen to get involved in student organizations," Kemper said. Along with working with orientation, Kemper added he would like to use surveys to find out what students are expecting from the SGA office. "We will keep a firm grasp on what students want by administering surveys during registration periods, as well as bombarding incoming freshmen with information on campus activities," Continued on Page 2 BRETT O'BANNON questionnaire as an opportunity to give the students a voice. "Re-budgeting" is another way O'Bannon said he would build up SGA's credibility. "I don't think the administration respects SGA, mainly for the way they spend their money," he said. He said he would like more money allocated to the Greek system for charity and scholarship projects, as well as to the Speaker Continued on Page 4 Senate candidates pledge to increase involvement By LARRY D. CROOM Cardinal Editor While 10 candidates are battling for the top spots in the Student Government Association this year, 33 other candidates will be vying for the smaller offices connected with the SGA. These elections will be held concurrently with the major SGA elections on April2 and 3. Three candidates, Shane Cannady, William Doug Devine, and Joseph Kamer are running for the Business School presidential spot. Cannady is a junior, and has been president of Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity, as well as an SGA mentor.

He pledges to "work with the officers in the business school student council, and accomplish a great deal." Ken Malby and Joey Russ are the only two candidates pursuing the business school vice presidency. Malby is a junior in the College of Arts and Sciences, while Russ is a junior in the Business School. Mathy has been involved with the student advisory committee to Trustees oppose resolution for divestiture despite student pleas By T. L. STANLEY Cardinal Manaainr Editor In a heavily attended meeting marked by loug disruptions, members of the group Students Against Apartheid gave an impassioned plea to the Board of Trustees on Monday. The SAA asked that the University of Louisville divest $9.2 million worth of stock In corporations that conduct business in the Republic of South Africa. Over 40 SAA members attended the meeting, some lined up against a wall and held signs that spelled out "U of L Divest Now" in large red and black block letters. Amid the flurry of reports and television camera crews, five members of the SAA addressed the trustees for approximately 20 minutes. Chris Cutelis, citing a petition with over 1,000 student signatures and the faculty and staff support for the resolution, said that the Board should vote immediately to divest without refering the proposal to the Foundation. "How long shall we study this issue? How many more will die in South Africa?" asked Cute lis, who is the leader of SAA. "These people (the blacks in South Africa) can't wait and we must divest now!" His speech was followed by long and loud applause and cheers of agreement from the many onlookers, most of whom were SAA members. In another speech that was filled with emotion, Derek Wilson asked some basic questions about U of L. "Is this the type of university that I want to attend? Is this the type of university we want? Why can't we vote now, today? You know the conditions." As Wilson began to run out of the allotted time for his presentation, Gene Gardner, chairman of the Trustees, reminded him of the time constraints. "You only gave us five minutes! You know it takes longer than that to present something like this. You put it at the top of the agenda so you could rush us out the door ... "Wilson said. The SAA originally had been given only five minutes to make their presentations, and actually spent almost 20 minutes in all. One speaker gave the statistical background of how much money U of L has in corporations tied to South Africa and what these corporations do in the country. Mattie Jones, mother of two U of L students and a member of the Kentucky Alliance Against Racism and Political Repression, spoke to the Trustees and urged Continued on Pa,e Z Mattie Jones, a mother of two University of Loul•ville students speaks to the Board of Tnastee• in an attempt to uqe them to vote to dlvelt funds in South Africa.
