The^stern Carolinian THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1977 Vol. XLIII, No. 8 CULLOWHEE, N.C. Schorr, Kilpatrick deliver captivating debate Journalists air their views bv ANTHONY E. BROWN JR. Staff Writer A nationally syndicated newspaper columnist ^expressed concern here October 5 whether there will he anyone literate enough to read newspapers by the turn of the century. And a former CBS News correspondent, speaking on the same program, said he received more criticism from fellow journalists than the public for releasing a secret House intelligence report to the press. .lames J. Kilpatrick, columnist and television commentator, blamed television for poor reading habits in the U.S. "America is being mesmerized by the boob tube." he said. The influence of television combined with the nation's poor educational system is producing a nation of non-readers, he said. "Most high school graduates are reading at a seventh grade or lower level." according to studies Kilpatrick said he has seen. If the trend continues, Kilpatrick said, b) the turn of there will he no one able lo read Kilpatrick Schorr newspapers. Speaking at Western Carolina University's Hoev Auditorium. Kilpatrick said newspaper circulations an dropping while television is picking up more and more—>. advertising dollars. Most new papers are righting just to » stay alive, he said. Although Kilpatrick said the problem of getting news from television is that what a viewer gets from a half-hour newscast would fill only about live columns of a six-column front page. television provides the headlines, he said, not an in-depth look at the news. Daniel Schorr, the second speaker on the program sponsored by the WCU Student Association lor Government and legal Affairs, said he gave a secret House report to the Village Voice "because CHS would nol use the report." Schorr, who had been with CBS for 2^ years, was suspended for releasing the report which included details on Navy submarine spying on Soviet missile firings and details ol three secret CIA operations. Schorr said he spent a lot of time lecturing last year ami found ihat people were glad to see the press doing courageous things, fellow journalists, however, condemned him for the act, he said. Schorr was eventually subpoenaed by a House Intelligence Committee, but refused to name the source for the secret material. "The only reason Congress backed off from throwing me in jail." he said, "was because they couldn't get enough votes to do it." Schorr said if one reporter leaked a source's name, then all confidential sources would dry up. Schorr also said there is a "profound unease among citizens concerning the press. People regard it as vicious, going after the weak and not the strong." He said people regard the press as having too much power and prying too much. "First it was Nixon, then Wilbur Mills, now Bert Lance. Who's next? That's what people are asking: who is the press going after next?" Approximately 800 persons attended the lectures. Senate approves budgets bill Senators spend hours cutting through $112,000 allocations resolution by EDDIE YANDLE Senate Reporter The WCU Student Senate approved a budget of over $112,000 Monday night after several hours of heated debate on the allocation of funds to certain organiza- Controversy centered around whether some of the larger organizations on campus such as WWCU. the University Center, and the Western Carolinian would be appropriated enough money while the small organizations would receive too much. Senators Joe Planz and Al Lagano w ished to cut the funds of some of the smaller organizations to better fund these larger ones. Senator Planz said it came down to a choice of whether "it is better to fund an organization which can benefit 25 people or one which serves 6000 people." Senators Phil Cates and Mark Asa were on the opposing side wishing to keep the funds of the smaller organizations stable. Senator Cates said "we should allow the smaller organizations on campus a chance to A motion from Senator Asa passed which allowed all organizations with appropriations under $500.00 to remain intact but not until after two organizations. The American Home Economies Association and The Art Students League, were already cut. Vice-President Gary Brown felt these clubs were unfairly treated bacause. "if we were going to cut one (club), we should check into all of them." Student Government President Pat Murphy, "in an effort to help out." voluntarily cut the SGA budget because he said there were "several organizations which needed the money worse than we did." President Murphy also expressed concern over several areas in the budget, saying "thgre were several organizations which didn't receive enough such as the Nomad, whose funds went down $200.00 from last year and there is no way the cost of printing has dropped." Murphy went on to say that, "at this time I'm not sure I'm going to even sign it (the budget) even though 1 hate to send it back to the senate. I haven't reviewed the entire budget yet and at this time I'm still unsure about my decision." Representatives attended the meeting from the UCB. WWCU. and the Western Carolinian with the UCB's budget coming before the senate first. UCB President Gary Vogler was allowed to speak before the senate where he explained, "we do not have enough funds to operate properly with this budget." Even after a $975 increase which was proposed by Sen. Planz was approved, several members of the senate and executive committee felt they were still not appropriated enough money. WWCU Station manager .lake Phillips was also (hereto explain the financial situation of WWCU. Phillips noted. "Last year we were appropriated only $9,000 and wc already spent over $11,000 so wc started out $2,000 in the hole. So far this year we've spent $.1,000 which leaves us with only $9,000 for the rest of the vear. This means we'd probably have to cut back air time and wc couldn't operate sufficiently." The result was another $2500 appropriated to WWCU which passed through the senate unanimously. The Western Carolinian was also appropriated another $300 which was left from the slush fund and. "if the money's there" another $1700 next semester. Vice-President Brown expressed doubt whether the money would be there since it depends on the dropout rate and he expects "only 4900 - 5000" next semester. This would mean a dropout rate at the school around five percent. In other activities. Senator Phil Cates was elected president pro-tcm defeating Senator Al Lagano for the A bill was also passed by Senator Mark Asa which would require faculty to return library books after one semester, and if a student requested the book, after two weeks. The bill also stated after the faculty member had been requested to return the book, thev had four days to do so. alter which a fine of 20 cents would be levied.
