Unmarked Slump
Causes Confusion
By CAROL TENNESSON
Kernel Staff Writer

Everyone

is

stumped.
There is a very
petrified stump behind
Miller Hall, and no one ran
figure out where it came from
ov why it's there.
It has not been engraved, innoble-lookin-

scribed, labeled, or dedicated.
It might be designated as a
resting place for weary students,
but it is enclosed !n a chain. No
one but the dogs could get under
the chain, and they've been banished. No one but the kangaroos
could get over the chain, but
they've been banished too. (No
one has seen any around lately,
anyway.)
The problem seems to be deep-roote- d.
There should be some
kind of plaque designating the
stump's origin, age, and classification.
Was it George Washington's
cherry tree? Was it Longfellow's
spreading chestnut tree? Or Joyce
Kilmer's tree that had a nest of
robins in its hair? No one knows.
Until someone decides to decorate it, with an epigram of some
kind, the stump will remain an
anonymous landmark on the University campus, forever the object of quizzical glances. And
there is nothing more disherat-enin- g
than being stumped by a
stump.

Despite New Link With Disease

Students To Keep Smoking
By SANDY OTTO
Kernel Staff Writer

Will people stop smoking
that it has been confirmed that there is a link between cigarette smoking and
Jeath and disease?
now

"

UK students,
in Interviews
yesterday said they would prob- -

ably keep smoking. The students
seemed unaffected by a new report linking death and cigarettes.
The report presented the evidence that was found concerning
smoking.
Chloe Beaird a graduate student said that she wasn't affected by this report, and that she
would wait until the connection
was well established. She smokes
about a pack and a half a day.
John Houchin in Commerce
said, "I don't think it applies to
me. When I see the ill effects
I'll quit."
Johnny Jordan, Commerce major, said, "I enjoy smoking. A
man I know is 85 years old. he
smokes 2 packs a day and has
been smoking since he was fourteen and he is still walking the
.streets. You can give arguments
eitber way. Why isn't this man
afl,cted and why is another?"
C arrie
freshMorgan, an A&-.man, feels that people will cut

down on smoking for a week or
two because of this report but
they will forget about it and
continue smoking. "I would be
influenced when an
is
taken that proved I had cancer."
Martha Thebaud, freshman in
A&S, feels that "people will probably keep on smoking. Most people feel the chances of them
getting cancer are slight because
they feel that they don't smoke
enough to make it dangerous."
Judy Witzer an Education
sophomore feels that she would
quit if a pefscnal appeal was
made to her to quit smoking. "If
my doctor told me to quit I
would."
Cathy Cornelius, a sophomore
in Commerce, said that she would
not quit smoking at the present
time although she vo;kl cut
clown. She said that she would
Quit if someone pressed her to
slop but not of her own accord.

A discussion of sudden unexpected death of infants will lead
on the program designed to assist law enforcement officials. A
three-da- y
conference was held
last year on the legal medicine
topic.
Congenital defects, the breathing of regurgitated matter into
the lungs, and infection are the
most frequent causes of natural
deaths among infants, Dr. Rudolph J. Muelling Jr., head of the
legal medicine division says.
He notes that experts in the
field recommend a complete coroner's Investigation
of such
deaths, so that parents may be
reassured they did not aid in the
death and so that law officials
iray be certain the death did not
occur by neglect or that the
child was not killed.
The subject will be discussed
at Saturday's conference by Dr.
William Q. Stumer, a postdocmedicine and
toral fellow in
td: .)' y at the UII Meuie.l
Cuiner.

Dr. Robert B. Forney, director
of the State Laboratory of Toxiat Indiana University
cology
School of Medicine, will discuss
problems created by the drunk
driver.
Dr. Forney has done extensive
research into the problem of
drunk driving. His tests at Indiana include some in which
drivers complete a prescribed
course of automobile maneuvers
before and after drinking.
Other topics to be presented,
and those who will discuss them,
include:
Basic forensic photography, by
Wayne Williams and Harry Slone
of the Department of Medical
Illustrations at the Medical Center; investigation of suicides. Dr.
Geoir.e Centner of St. I.ouis University School of Medicine, and
problems of coroners and rheriffs,

The new center, which is expected to cost $3,000,000 to complete, consists of the Agricultural
Science Building, the large building which is near completion, thi
Seed Laboratory, which is al o
nearlng completion, and four tobacco research greenhouses.
Architects' plans also call for
eight more greenhouses, an auditorium, and a Nutrition and Food
Technology Building.
The Agriculture Science Building, which is to be in operation
by March, and the other construction completed so far has
cost 4,000,000.
Gov. Combs spoke of the National Tobacco Research Laboratory, which takes up half of the
main Science Building, as one of
the best such facility in any land-gra- nt
university in the nation.
He said that Kentucky, tha
home of this project, will now b6
recognized as the "national to
bacco research state."
The governor praised the worB
of Congressman William Natchec
in the leadership he has shown,
in obtaining federal funds for
expansion of the tobacco research
program at the University.
He described Kentucky farm
income as below that of other
areas, and said that the new
cwter is an investment in the
total economy of Kentucky.
Dr. William A. Seay, dean of
the College of Agriculture and
Home Economics, and master of
ceremonies at the dedication, recognized the part the
Com-

mittee had played in the building of the new center.
This group, composed of about
125 persons from all segments cf
Kentucky agriculture raid relatci
industries, was organized by the
Kentucky Fimn Bureau in 1333.
They c'.evc'u prcl a lor;; ranue
plp.n for a lesearch and education program fur the suite at the
University, and have ii.-t- e I
toward
.securing the
greatly
neeess.n'y funds for the project.
Dawd II. rriKhctt, slate Commissioner of Finance, presented
the center to Dr. John W. Oswald, UK president.
Pritchett spoke of the project
as "evidence of the tremendous
building program being carried
on by the University."
Dr. Oswald pledged the new
center to the furtherance cf
knowledge in agriculture sciences
in Kentucky, and pledged the
National Tobacco Research Laboratory to greater benefits to the
tobacco industry.
When Dr. Seay introduced Dr.
Oswald, he spoke of the president
as a friend of agriculture, with a
Ph.D. in plant pathology and a
professorship in the subject here
at the University.
Dr. Oswald commented, "My
didn't
agricultural
background
do me a bit of good when I
crowned the wrong homecoming
queen a few weeks ago. I will try
to recoup today by dedicating the
right building."

Adjustment Is The Key

By JIM CI RTIS
Krrnrl Associate Daily Editor

and a total of 225 pages of reading in an outside book.
But remember that he too, like
you, woke up one peaceful morning and looked at the calendar,
to find that he was behind half
a semester.
The basic problem is not time.
It is adjustment. The new semester system has given all a
chance., for., longer., vacations

There are eight days left
until finals begin. There arc
days left until

17 shopping
Christmas.

The average student has to
reregister for the coming semester, write a term paper, three
reports of "not less than 2.000
words," read a book and make an
abstract which is due the same
day as an oral report on the
book, all in the remaining eight
days.
Then you have to finish your
work at the part-tim- e
job you
are holding, before going home
for the holidays. You still have
to make application for a different job during the holidays.
All your clothes are dirty and
your car has a flat. Then there
is the little man behind the desk
in your class who has also discovered he is behind in his work
of teaching. He's decided to assign 200 pages of outside reading, a paper on a specific topic.

Are you studying more and
more and enjoying it not at all?
Are you tired and Ju.st can't
seem to understand why? Do
your eyes hurt? Do you have deep
black circles hnlf way down your
face? Do you know what time the
paperboy delivers the paper to
each morning?
your door-ste- p
Can you give the exact minute
of sunrise for the past week?
If so, then you must be put of
that ever increasing number of
UK students, going through that
final stage of the semester's fun
and games known as paper panic
and chronic catch-u- p
crisis.
Just think, two weeks from
tomorrow it will all be over, for
at least four months, that is if
you aren't all done-i- n first. I can
see it now. Just as you collapse
at the door of the family homestead there are your parents,
waiting with open arms and a
small list of last minute job3 to
do before Santa can slide down
the chimney. It's the shortest list
on record only 14 feet.
Of course you had so much time
during the last couple of weeks
that all your shopping is done,
z.
that is if you count
bennies, Milltowns, arsenic, and
other . interesting college remedies as gifts.
But in case you're really down
and out this weekend should provide a lift to your spirits, at
least temporarily.
It all started with the Hanging
of the Greens Wednesday at the
Student Center. In case you
ddin't get there it was most impressive and the music was very
festive.
Even If demon grades are

breathing down your neck, you
should at least have a little Vule
cheer. After all the basketball
team is winning and Cotton's
shooting Is more impressive than
a full stocking hung on the
mantle.
The DZ's are opening the last
party weekend before finals with
best wishes for a cool Yule by
having a campuswide Jam session
from
p.m. today at the
chapter house. The Temptashuns
will be playing the mood music.
Later on, as the snow which
the weatherman has been predicting all week begins to fall,
the Haggin Hall Assembly will be
sponsoring a dance, campuswide
style, at the Student Center Ballroom. The hours are
p.m.
and the Epics will be on hand to
add the cheer and jingle bells.
There will be a slight fee, but
fear not your purse can stand it.
Fifty cents and one ID card a
couple are the requirements. Oh
yes, girls you finally get to shake
out that new skirt and sweater
you've been saving. A hint to the
Sir Gallahads, it's coat and tie
for you. It's probably the last
time this semester anyone will
see you in such a tidy state.
On the fraternity scene there
will be much commotion. The
Holiday Inn will be turned into a
heavenly roost for the men who
claim the White Owl as their
symbol. The Fiji's will be dancing away the evening with their
dates and will be treated to a
special sight, the presentation of
the new Fiji Sweatheart. Roy
Sharpe and his orchestra will be
giving the evening a formal at- -

mosphere. Maybe there will even
be some slow dances.
According to my communique
from the AGR's, they will be
ringing in the Santa season with
lots of holloy and greenery. Their
annual Christmas party will be
highlighted by the spirited playing of the Continentals.
The Deltas, both the Tri and
Delta Tau varieties will be having a joint party at the Tates
Creek Country Club. If that isn't
enough triangles for everyone
they're having the Sultans, the
Trendells and the Carnations to
play. It should be a Joyous
and the Mistletoe is sure
to hang high.
Down sorority row, the Alpha
Gams will be going posh to their
Silver Bell at the Imperial House.
Not only will there be a carol or
two but there should be lots of
fun to last into the new year.
The Delcardos will be playing
Silver Bells and all the other
romatic tunes of the season.
The members of FarmHouse
will also be welcoming the season
but I haven't received any word
on how they will be accomplishing this, so I guess we'll just have
to wait an see.
Today behind us, we swing into
the last day of the
- avoid - the -rush season. The afternoon will
to primping, since the
be devoted
women must be glamourous at
many parties- in the evening and
they have to be at their very best
for all the fun under the parasite

that causes so much diversion at
Christmas parties.
The Kappa's and the SAE's are
joining forces to produce a really
big dance with a slight military
flavor. They will be swinging at
tl.? National
Guard Armory.
Keeping in step with the more
cocktail
elegant atmosphere will make
dresses and dark suits
an appearance. The Delcardos
will be the entertainment.
The Phi Sig's are also going in
for the semi-formbit as they
while away the evening to soft
music and firelight at the house.
The background will be provided
by the Temptashuns.
The Sig Ep's are partying also
tomorrow but as of yet they
haven't felt the urge to commune
With this scribe.
The Lambda Chi's a;e celebrating two events at their house tomorrow, well really three. It's the
last party of the season for them
in honor of this they will drag
in a log or two and fill the Wassail bowl. Aside from that it is a
very historic day and the men
will come dressed in uniform.
The reason for the costume affair: it's Pearl Harbor Day. Just
22 years ago tomorrow the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Of
course, not many of us were
around for that great occassion
but we can still commenmorate
its occurance.
The Phi Tau's will be awaiting
Santa and his goodie-fille- d
sleigh
with great excitement. He's sending some of his elves early to en

"Where radio and television is a business

not a sideline'

� Now Is The Time
To Begin Integration
Of Athletic Teams
The University of Kentucky Athletics Association decided in April to
open University athletic programs to
ell students, regardless of race.
The Board released the following
statement:
"In keeping with the function of
determining policy relating to UK
athletics, the Board of Directors of
the UKAA has considered the question of integrating University teams
end has determined these following
points:
"1.

The Board favors equal oppor-- J
tunity for all students to take
part in UK athletics as a matter
of principle and policy.

"2.

The Board believes the Uni- versity, in implementing this
policy, should make every ef- fort possible to preserve its
membership in the SEC, so as
not to lose the many values
which conference membership
contributes to the total interest
of the University.

j

(

"3.

The Board believes integration
of the UK teams can and
should occur at the earliest
possible time, taking into account our conference obligations. The Board asked the
President to proceed in consultations with the conference and
its member institutions as
promptly as possible, so that
when these have occurred the
Athletics Board can make the
necessary decisions to implement its policies in the best
interest of the University."

On May 29, the UKAA issued this

further statement: "The University of
Kentucky announces that immediately
fill of its intercollegiate athletic teams
will be open to any student regardless
of race."
In making

the decision

during

the last school year, it was evident
that it was too late to actively recruit
Negro athletes for this school year.
The football recruiting wars open
Again tomorrow. The Kernel believes
that the Athletics Association should
now implement the policy as set up
last year.
There are many fine Negro football players in the state this year.
For instance, Louisville Male High,
the state's top prep eleven, can field

a complete backfield of Negroes. The

Kernel believes that such players
should not be overlooked during the
recruiting period.
Recently, three large universities
in Texas announced they were opening their athletic programs to students of all races and would begin to
actively recruit Negro athletes. The
schools were the Universities of
Texas, Houston, and Baylor University.
For Houston this was a momentous step. This year the school scheduled Mississippi, Mississippi State,
all of the
Auburn, and Alabama
Southeastern Conference.
At Houston, the possibility of being dropped by four opponents seems
to have been outweighed by a desire
to open the athletic program to all
students.
Likewise, the Kernel believes that
now is the time to implement the decision to open the University's athletic programs to Negro athletes.
We have said previously, the prime
consideration should be a moral one.
We would not enjoy seeing the University leave the SEC. However, this
would be preferable to ignoring potential UK athletes because of race.
SEC Commissioner Bernie Moore
said, June 12, "Certainly there will be
problems connected with it (integration.) But we've had our problems
before and adjusted to them."
Our University was one of the first
southern schools to admit Negroes to
enrollment. The first Negro graduate
student enrolled in 1949. The first
Negro was admitted to the University
undergraduate schools in 1934. Earlier this year, UK was the first SEC
school to announce its intention to
recruit Negro athletes. Now is the
time to act.
The primary argument put forth
by critics of integrated athletics is
that housing, travel, and eating problems would arise in taking integrated
teams into the South.
The Negro athletes recruited this
year would be eligible for varsity competition in the 1965 season.
Kentucky's schedule for 1965 lists
four road games. These are against
Missouri, Auburn, Louisiana State,
and Vanderbilt. Missouri has had
Negro athletes for several years. There
would be no problems for Negro athletes from UK in this game.
Kentucky flies to its Auburn engagement and stays in a national chain
motel. There should be no problems
there.
The Cats also travel by chartered
aircraft for the LSU game. Housing
plans could be arranged in Baton
Jlouge.
Vainly officials replied to a newspaper questionnaire, saying that they
have been willing previously, and are
still willing, to play or host integrated teams.
Former University President Frank
C. Dickey said of the April decision,
"I believe the action taken today was
a
one."
The Kernel believes it is now time
to move ahead on this decision. We
Jcel the Athletics Association should
renumber that decision and the moral
obligation to recruit, regardless of
race.

Cram Time
It's cram time again not for the
students, but for the professors.
As the semester rushes to a close,
a great number of instructors scurry
to cover a certain amount of material.
Some professors are so far behind
that in four remaining class periods,
they are going to cover four chapters
in the text and give the second test
of the semester.
Such instructors don't really care

Campus Parable
Some people say that Christianity
is not a religion. "Religion" to millions
of people in the world means a search

for God. Through painful
or deep
or rigorous
meditation, man, they say, must try
to reach up and find God.
l,

If that is "religion," then surely
Christianity is not a religion. Christianity is completely the reverse. It is
not man's reaching up to find God. It
is the "good news" that God has
reached down and found us. It is the
story of God's coming as "the Son of
Man" into the world to seek and to
save.
Christianity is explained in parables of a shepherd who left ninety-nin- e
sheep to find the one lost lamb,
and a woman who searched every
corner, every crack, until she found
the piece of silver which she had lost.
It is not within our power to find
God but He stooped to find us.
B. L. Bextrup, Pastor
St. John's Luthern Church

what the students learn from their
courses, they are only interested in
covering the material. This is a miserable attitude for supopsedly learned
persons to take.
Is it not better to cover only a little
material and have students know it
well, than to thy to cover practically
everything and not have the students
understand a word of it?

If this University is to become a
truly great one, we both need and
want professors who do more than
then merely cover a certain amount of
material. We both need and want
professors who are interested in the
students and the quality not the quantity of knowledge they obtain at UK.

Iier adult characters, who tend, by their
very maturity to appear villainous. Even when, as in "China Court," her children
are 21 years old, they are redeemed from the blight of adulthood by a childlike (although not always childish) mind.
In her latest novel, "The Battle of the Villa Finorlta
Miss

morality of children. In its briefest outlines, the story
deals with two children, Hugh and Caddie Clavering, who travel alone
to Italy with the hope of breaking up their mother's affair. Granted
that Fanny, their mother, has been divorced, and that she soon

to, and indeed initiated the divorce; the children (or rather, Miss
Godden still feel that her place is with them. And since it Is a
jnoral Miss Godden who handles this episode, Fanny realizes this also.
Fanny's character is such, in fact, that she could do nothing else
but return. She, too, is one of the unspoiled, perceptive children of
Rumer Godden's universe. Strangely enough, one seldom finds intellectual women, or characters either, in Miss Godden's books. All
of her good people rather resemble Fanny: "far behind . . . with
books and plays and fashions; unintelligent, ordinary a dear . . . but
not very worldly wise."
So, it is not shocking that at the end of the novel, one finds
this charming, lovable, dear
child allowing her own
children to aid in the destruction of her love with Rob. Given her
morality what else was left.
Miss Godden's talents as a narrator are many: her descriptions
