Stadium Issue Still At An Impasse
By PETER S. HAMM
SptrH Editar
The Board of Trustees has yet to make a decision on the construction of an on-campus stadium. The idea was proposed to the Board over one year ago.
According to some members of the Board, no action has been taken because of the lack of information currently available.
“The average trustee doesn't have enough solid information,” said Trustee Frank Smathers, Jr. "Fm sure that they |the trustees | would be delighted to go along with it (the plans for the stadium|. I’d like to see |a sta-dium| but I’m not going to vote for one unless I know it's feasible."
The preliminary acceptance of the stadium was granted first by the Athletics Policy Committee of the Board of Trustees, and then by the Executive Committee, which is chaired by James McLamore. But the full board has tabled the vote for 18 months.
Head Football Coach Howard Schnellenberger has commissioned numerous preliminary studies, and has presented the results to the Board.
“I think the paramount question is one of financing. Second is its total feasibility,” said Trustee Ray Goode,
president of the Babcock Corporation.
"I would think that most of the trustees would want a stadium," Goode said. "When Schnellenberger first presented the idea, he felt quite confident about finding a donor."
Goode said he feels that this confidence has diminished. But he said that if the team has a winning season, a donor should be much easier to find. According to him. a costly feasibility study must be undertaken.
“We've got to get over the question 'Is it in fact feasible?' The only way to do that is to have a feasibility study done. That is pretty expensive in itself, somewhere between $50,000 and $100,000. You are then better armed to go to donors.”
Trustee Stuart Patton, an attorney in the firm of Patton, Kanner, Zeller and King, also said that the reason the Board has taken no action on the stadium issue is that not enough is known.
“The trustees have never given it full consideration. And until they receive enough information, they will not do anything. As a policy matter, we have not reviewed it.
"We must have a full, complete disclosure of facts about the stadium, |and we must know| that it will not damage the University's future," said Patton. “We
must determine whether the use of space is better for a stadium than for an expansion of the University."
Patton said that he feels the land use question is crucial. “You don’t put a grapefruit in a thimble," he said.
“You can't shut out the future growth of the rest of the University. Therefore, we are not considering it |the stadium issue| ; we have not taken action on it," Patton added.
Patton stated that he would personally like to see a stadium, but that the “practicality of it does give me some problems."
“The major stumbling block is the money," said Smathers. "I'm not convinced that having a winning or losing team is not the major problem with the Orange Bowl."
About the existence of a donor, Smathers said, "There are people on the Board of Trustees who have that much money, and would like to have their name on a stadium. I believe that we could probably do it. It would be very popular, but whether or not it is economically feasible is the question.”
“Everybody would like to see it," Smathers said. "I don't think there is anyone on the Board who is against it.”
Results of the 1968 and 960 Complex races were not available at press time.

Homecoming Starts Monday
By CINDY HEASTER
N»m Writer
Homecoming Week, which starts Monday, Nov. 3, will feature both traditional and new events, leading up to the Nov. 8 football game against the East Carolina Pirates.
The week’s events get underway Monday with the Miss University of Miami Pageant at 8 p.m. in Gusman Hall. In the preliminaries last Saturday, 12 finalists were selected from a field of 74 applicants.
Tickets for the pageant are available free with a student ID, today at the Homecoming office in room 225 of the Student Union. Only one ticket will be given per ID card.
The finalists and their sponsors are (in alphabetical order) the following: Martha Baghdoian, sponsored by Alpha Sigma Phi; Janet Bascombe, Chi Omega; Marie Ellen Cullell, Alpha Sigma Phi; Aixa Maria Diaz, Alpha Sigma Phi; Cathy Elisa Herman, Sigma Alpha Epsilon; Daphne Ingraham, Alpha Kappa Phi; Marlette Jeffers, Pi Mu Alpha Sinfonia; Lillian Nailor, Zeta Beta Tau; Jana Wallis, the Hurricane; Edith Williams, United Black Students; and Valerie Williams, Zeta Beta Tau.
“The high turnout of participants is because the pageant is a franchise of the Miss Florida Pageant this year, and a girl could conceivably go on to the Miss America Pageant,” said Armando Rodriguez, co-chairperson of the pageant.
A blood drive, sponsored by the Homecoming Committee and Mt. Sinai Medical Center, begins Tuesday at noon. It will be held in Flamingo Ballroom of the Student Union, and will continue for three days. All blood will be donated to the American Cancer Society.

King: Suffering Must Be Eliminated
By MARY CRONIN
N*w> wrltir
Coretta Scott King, widow of Martin Luther King, Jr., addressed students and faculty members at Gusman Hall On Wednesday.
King came to the University as part of Religious Emphasis Week. The topic of her lecture was “caring,” the theme of Religious Emphasis Week.
According to Jacques Moritz, chairman of the Lecture Series, which arranged for King to come to campus, “It was the first time that Lecture Series had a speaker in Gusman Hall. It was also the first lecture simulcast via cable television.”
The 45-minute lecture was preceded by a performance by the Chamber Singers, who sang No Man Is An Island, as well as Latin and Jewish folksongs.
After the Chamber Singers' performance, Moritz, Father Frank Lechiara, and President Henry King Stanford addressed the audience and King about “caring week,” and King’s role in world caring.
Stanford spoke of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s speech at the University 14 years ago; he then Introduced Mrs. King. The audience gave her a standing ovation for several minutes.
After her opening remarks. King began discussing caring during the 1970s. She said that during the decade, caring became interpersonal. “We must find a way to restructure our system of values, where we place people before wealth.”
King related this to her beliefs about compassion. She said that there are three forms of compassion, the first being awareness and concern of others. "This does nothing to correct human suffering," stated King.
The second form, she said, works on compassion. “The hand reaches out as well as the heart.
"We still have apathy, but we have always reacted to disaster, catastrophy, and feeding hungry children.”
The highest level of compassion, which King stressed is the "truest form," is the elimination of suffering by strong solutions. King explained that this was her husband’s view, and is her view today.
King wants to see compassion carried through with progressive social change. "We must take care that our method reaches our goals. If our ends are peaceful, then our means must also be peaceful. This will result in a lasting, hopeful pipgress," said King.
King brought politics into her lecture by stressing that progressive social change can only be reached in the immediate future if the public is informed on all issues. She stated that all eligible persons should vote on Nov. 4.
'Tve heard people say in the past that there is no difference between candidates. This year that is true. There is not much difference between Anderson and Reagan, but there is a great difference between Carter

and Reagan," said King.
The audience then broke into loud applause, and it was several minutes before King could continue.
She stressed the differences between Carter and Reagan. Her greatest criticisms were of Reagan's economic and social policies. She criticized many of the candidate's ideas, including his proposal to do away with the Consumer Protection Agency, which, she said, provides poor people with money for their heating bills.
She also criticized Reagan's proposal to cut funds for day care centers and food stamp recipients, and his proposal to eliminate the minimum wage.
The audience murmured its approval and disapproval of King's pro-Carter stance when she said that the election of Reagan would mean,“a serious setback to say the least."
King also criticized Reagan's foreign policy. "He spoke in favor of the brutal military dictatorships of Chile and Argentina," she said. "Mr. Reagan's international policies are a threat to world peace.”
King feels that Carter is a caring person, and praised his foreign policy. “Mr. Carter has kept international security secure. Egypt and Israel are in communication for the first time in history. This is great progress.
"He I Carter I has the leadership to attain world peace. No longer is America regarded as an enemy of democracy in Africa and Latin America. There is a new trust in our nation, and a respect for our president, because he believes in the Third World’s right to self-determination. We should not interfere with the Third World's governments and economic policies," said King.
She emphasized the importance of the Humphrey-Hawkins full employment bill which the president signed. King believes that every person who is able to work should have a job. She praised Carter's hiring of blacks, hispanics. and women
“The president's hiring of minorities is just beginning to bear fruit,” she said.
"We still have a choice today — non-violent co-ex-istence, or violent co-annihilation. That was Martin's belief. We can unite all religions and relations for prosperity. Then we will have fulfilled Martin's dream of a world-wide community,” Kinp concluded	a
Election Results In
By JOHN OUDENS
Ntwi Writer
Results of the fall Undergraduate Student Body Government (USBG) Senate elections were announced Tuesday night at the Rathskeller. More than 100 students waited until 10:25 p.m. for the announcement.
The results, which were revealed by Brenda Hardy, Election Commission chairman, found the CAUSE (Communicating Among Undergraduate Students Effectively) ticket candidates winning all possible 11 seats for which they competed. This total includes all available seats for the Student Entertainment Comittee (SEC), Freshman Class, Sophomore Class, and the Off-Campus South residential area.
The SUN (Students’ Ultimate Needs) ticket won two seats in unopposed races.
One independent, Mark Laferrara, won his unopposed race for fraternity row senator.
Jeff Becker, acting USBG Supreme Court chief justice, announced at the Rat that two of the races would not be decided until a special runoff election on Thursday. Becker said the race was necessary to decide both the 960 Complex race, which was so close that only a second election could fairly decide it, and the 1968

Complex race, which involved an error on the ballots.
Becker explained that, though he was not at liberty to release exact figures, the 960 race was “extremely close.” Since the ballots are counted by hand, Becker said, any race with a final difference of “less than five or seven votes” has to be considered a tie. “We have to take human error into account,” Becker said. “It was that close.”
As reported Tuesday in the Hurricane, the 1968 Complex Senate race was thrown into a quandary Monday morning when it was discovered that Mark Cheskin, SUN candidate for 1968 senator, was accidentally left off the ballot. Hardy reported Tuesday night that 37 ballots were turned in before the mistake was discovered.
Hardy explained that since such a problem is not covered in the USBG Constitution, she and her commission colleagues — including Jeff Zirulnick, designate of the president, and Becker — had to “consider all ideas and listen to all reasons” given to them by ticket representatives.
Hardy said that it was finally decided to offer Cheskin the option of requesting a second election for the seat. Cheskin took the option, Hardy said.
Controversy surrounded a third senate race. Mike Molinaro, CAUSE candidate for Mahoney-Pearson senator, was disqualified from the election Tuesday evening. According to Molinaro, he was disqualified because his official transcript showed a cumulative grade-point average (G.P.A.) slightly below the required average for Senate candidates.
“I've had three grades changed," Molinaro said, explaining that that his actual G.P.A. is above the required average. However, because his tuition is not yet fully paid, Molinaro said, he has not been able to get the grade changes entered in his official transcript.
Hardy confirmed Molinaro's story. Because Molina-ro’s official G.P.A. was not “at this point” sufficient for his candidacy, Hardy said, Zirulnick and Election Adviser Sid Weisburd were forced to disqualify Molinaro.
John Nagle, victorious CAUSE candidate for the apartment area senate seat, said that the CAUSE organization was dissatisfied with the Molinaro decision, and that CAUSE would definitely try to appeal.
The Rathskeller was filled mostly with CAUSE candidates and supporters on Tuesday night. There were some SUN supporters present, but they remained fairly quiet during the evening’s proceedings. Their quietness turned to'virtual silence as Brenda Hardy read the election results. It gradually became apparent that their ticket had not done well.
The CAUSE supporters, however, remained some. What noisy thrauohont the evening, and were wildly by the time Hardy finished announcing tlte results.
“It just feels very good,” said Karl Henck, CAUSE campaign manager and victorious SEC candidate. “I See Page 2A, Col. 4
