New Library Addition
May Qo Up By 1 969
By FRANK BROWNING
Assistant Managing Editor
A new library addition which
would seat from 3,000 to 3,500
students may be built by 1969,
according to Stuart Forth, director of University libraries.
The addition, which Dr. Forth
says should roughly be about
two-thirthe size of the present
Margaret King Library, will prob

ably be located either east or
south and adjacent to the current
structure.
Maxwell Place, the University president's home, is located
immediately cast of the library
and is a site, Dr. Forth explained,
that might be the most favorable
area for the expansion.
Under the provisions of the
overall campus plan, Maxwell
Place is scheduled to be removed

'Mask Of Angels9
Student actors rehearse their production of Notis Pcryalis's "Mask
of Angels" which they will present at 8:30 p.m. Friday and at
3 p.m. Saturday in the Laboratory Theater of the Fine Arts Building. There will be no charge for admission. From left to right are

The proposed building will be

it its present size.
After a number of preliminary
plans and reports are made by
library administrative personnel,
Dr. Forth said, a "program" will
be made for the building to tell
the architect what facilities are
desired for a total seating of
3,000 to 3,500 persons plus other
equipment.
King Library now seats about
500 students, he said.
"One of the main considerations in planning the building
is to improve entrances and
exits," the director added 'hey
will be better oriented toward
the traffic pattern on campus."
"The main library entrance
may be changed," Dr. Forth
stated. He further said he would
expect there to be two major
entrances and exits.
Placement of these admission
points depends upon whether the
library is expanded toward Maxwell Place or toward "Splinter
Hall," immediately north.
If the new structure is placed
north of and adjacent to the
present library, he said, stacks
and study area would probably
be separated by cataloguing, seating, and administrative facilities.
Dr. Forth cited the absence
of a rear entrance to the library
now as a major inconvenience
to students, especially since a
large number of dormitory students come from that direction,
but added that there is no feasible place for a "checker" to be
stationed now.
"It costs us roughly $8,000
to $10,000 a year now for door
checkers," he added.
Speaking before the University Faculty Senate Monday, Dr.
Forth said that several current

O'Brien Tells Kappas

Merger Chosen
For Major Issue In Campaign
Congress-Boar- d

"We have chosen the Student Congress-StudeCenter Board merger as the chief issue in this SC
election campaign," said John O'Brien, SC presidential candidate, in his address to the Kappa
Kappa Camma sorority Wednesday night.
This merger will eliminate the duplication of
functions of the UK governing bodies, among
other things, O'Brien said.
O'Brien, the current SC vice president, is
seeking next year's presidency, with his running
mate, Oscar Westerfield seeking the
y.

O'Brien feels that UK is three to four years
behind some other major institutions in student
government.
Other universities have two governing bodies,
while UK has four -- all of which find it hard to
garner any power, O'Brien said.
"We just want the student Ixxly to have a
voice," he said.
Westerfield enumerated the four points of the"

hope to expand the program from 350 to 600
students," he said.
Second is the book exchange. "We feel is we
strengthen it next year we might get a 1,000
students to participate. This will cut into the
book stores' profit, and students will get the
discount," Westerfield said.
Third is the Better Business Bureau. Its purpose is to make sure "you as a student don't
get taken," Westerfield said. "Our intention is
to place a representative in most of the housing
units, and to keep them knowledgeable of what's
going on in business."
Fourth is the representative function. "If we
would strengthen services in SC it is well worth
a merger," Westerfield said.
Also, he said, "We want to rule out debate
of political issues on the SC floor. By setting
up debate outside the Congress floor through
forums, the same end will be had," said

was due to the eating, lighting,

UK Symphony Is Musical

Kernel Arts Editor
The UK Symphony Orchestra is the basketball team of
the music department, says conductor Leo Scheer. And just as
UK basketball fans look forward
eagerly to each season, more and
more UK music fans are beginning to anticipate each of the
orchestra's performances.
Playing in the symphony orchestra takes real teamwork, Mr.
Scheer went on to explain. The
results of this teamwork may be
heard at the orchestra's spring
concert at 2:30 p.m. April 3 in
Memorial Hall.
Although the orchestra now
has 40 members, Mr. Scheer an
assistant professor of music at
UK hopes it will become considerably larger. "I am tremendously pleased with the nucleus
of the orchestra, but we want to
build it," said Mr. Scheer. "What
we need to do is grow in both
concept and size, and this is our
immediate goal."
Mr. Scheer emphasized that
students, alumnae, and townspeople are cordially invited to
participate in the orchestra. "A
lot of people are unaware of the
fact that the symphony is open
to anyone who feels he would
like to participate in a symphonic
orchestral experience," said Mr.
Scheer.
Mr. Scheer explained that he
is looking for reasonably advanced players especially for
the string section. "Building the
orchestra lies chiefly in building
our string section because literature for the symphony orchestra
over the centuries has been
written for large string sections,"
Mr. Scheer said.
For interested UK students
the symphony orchestra offers
the added lure of a possible

Segregation And Greeks
Prompted by last summer's ruling that colleges with
sororities and fraternities may face loss of federal
funds, several colleges have required local Greek chapters to sign
oaths that they will not discriminate on grounds of race.
According to University officials
no such request has been made of
the local chapters at UK, and
advisers and officers confirm that
neither the Interfraternity Council
nor the Panhellenic Council has
sought such a pledge from its
membership.

UK Promotion
The Alumni Association's continuation of the National Editors'
Conference initiated last year constitutes a significant change in the
role of that organization in promoting the UK image.
Long the courtiers of high school
athJetes and coaches and few
others, the Alumni Association now
has embarked on a much more
meaningful program which can
reap exceedingly greater rewards
for the entire University.
Assembling outstandingjouma-list- s
in connection with a quality
academic conference likely will
have the effect of enhancing the
public image of the University as
a center of serious academic inquiry. In the long run, such a
reputation is far more meaningful
than one limited exclusively to
the sports page.

Since the University owns the
land on which the houses of most
of the organizations stand, and
since the Greeks are linked intrinsically with UK in other ways,
administrators would have every
right to seek such pledges. Under
last summer's ruling by Education
Commissioner Francis Keppel, UK
may be risking crippling loss of
federal funds if discrimination on
the basis of race or religion is
proved within the sororities and
fraternities.
But we feel such a pledge would
be far more meaningful if it were
at the impetus of Panhellenic and
Interfraternity Council themselves
than at the request of the administration. In several colleges across
the nation local Greek chapters
are throwing off the outmoded
d
standards of the
even at the
national organizations,
risk of disaffiliation with the national groups. Some have voluntarily chosen Negro, Jewish, or
other minority group members,
risking the ire of their national
boards.
A Kernel survey two years ago
showed that none of the groups
ever had invited a Negro to join,
and several admitted there were
formal or informal clauses in
national regulations prohibiting
pledging of members of specified
minority groups, including Nealumni-controlle-

groes.

The cost of discrimination both
locally and nationally is too high,
both from a moral standpoint and
from the risk of loss of federal
aid to the University. Panhellenic
We hope the Alumni AssociaCouncil and Interfraternity Counwith its resources in terms cil should take the initiative in

Holy Fad!
One of the favorite American
myths which graces most political
speeches and several high school
civics classes is that Americans are
individualists.
strong-wille- d
The latest example of the fallacy
of "individualism" is the Batman
fad which is currently sweepingthe
country. The Batman show on television twice a week is interesting.
At times it is even funny. It is
many things, but it is not subtle.
After a season or so people will
probably tire of it just as they
have tired of other fads.
Unfortunately people will not
be allowed to just tire of Batman;
they will have to get quick sick
of him before his reign is over.
Already new television shows for
Wonder Woman, Aqua Man and a
host of others are in the works.
Even the University is feeling
d
effects of the
the
heavy-hande-

Batman craze. Parties, promotions
and propaganda for various campus
outfits have just about unanimously
adopted the Batman theme at
least in part.

There is nothing particularly
wrong with the Batman fad; it will
not subvert the minds of our young
or lead to a national disaster. But
the fad does demonstrate rather
well how uninspired and unoriginal
Americans are even American collegians.
Next time you see a flock (or
covey or whatever) of batwatchers
on their way to a bat party, think
about it.

disastrous loss of 1964. Will Nixon
run? Does Romney look good? How
about Lindsay? No one knows who
will finally end up carrying the
GOP banner.
But in one party the question
has been settled, the platform has
been written, the campaign song
has been composed and the feelers
are out for national support.
Yes, friends, Yetta Bronsteinwill
run for President again in 1968.
Yetta, you may remember, ran in
1964 under the banner of the Best
Party. Her campaign slogan was
and is "Watch things get betta
with Yetta." Her platform is simple
but complete. It is (1) lowering
the voting age to 18, (2) better
government, (3) floridation, (4) national bingo, (5) sex education,
(6) stronger government.
In a recent "Open Letter to the
College Students of America," Mrs.
Bronstein gave her reasons why
students should vote for her. To
quote from the letter:
"I urge you to vote for me
and help put a mother in the
White House. I promise to run this
great country with a strong arm,
the same way I run my home.
"Think of all the things your
mother did for you: the feeding,
changing, washing, ironing, telling
bedtime stories, lying for you,
crying for you . . . everything to
make you big and strong. Now you
can pay her back by putting me
in office. I will represent ail your
mothers and act in their behalf
for you."
Mrs. Bronstein is looking for
workers on the nation's campuses.
.She.sa.ys.' if you ."are. popular and
can make &sjt Jrienclsslje

,ie

you. She is available to speak to

clubs, meetings and discussions
by long distance phone as long as
she doesn't have to pay the phone
bill, and you should contact her
by postcard, not collect call.
Since we already know who the
Democrat's candidate will be and
the Republicans are still playing
footsie, we hereby throw all our
tentative support behind Yetta
Bronstein. She'll be worth her
weight in gold in foreign affairs
alone. After all, who'd dare talk
back to a mother?
Having declared ourselves for
the Best Party and mother Yetta,
we ask you to keep the following
things in mind for the next couple
of years:
Remember to take a pencil
to the polls so you can write her
name in.

Don't
your ballot
and spoil your vote for Yetta.
Remember how many politicians in the past have cited love
of mother as proof of their
patriotism.

Universityism
After the state legislature's
proclamation making it a university as of this summer, Eastern
Kentucky State College lost no
time in mimicking the traditions
of the state's heretofore single
university.
The Richmond school celebrated
a lavish Founders' Day, a la UK
in 1965. The details of the two
celebrations were strikingly similar,
down to the granting of the
honorary degree to Kentucky Gov.
Edward T. Breathitt.
So, in terms of friendly rivalry,
though UK is no longer the state's
tviljj university; 'it 'is definitely, the

Student Judiciary Code:
Academic Freedom Issue

By LINDA MILLS
Kernel Executive Editor
University governing regulations specify only four actions as
constituting student offenses-cneati- ng,
hazing, drinking, and
financial delinquency.
Yet a student creating a disturbance interrupting the peace
on campus or a student caught

boards in the past have been
reluctant to hear "sticky" cases,
especially those involving sex.
Sometimes a student will be
turned over to University officials
by downtown police. Sometimes
he will not. Nothing prevents him
from receiving two "punishments" for one offense, or none
at all.

News Analysis

Penalties Not Specified

shoplifting in the bookstore may
find himself up for "prosecution"
by the University.
A somewhat vague phrase in
the regulations, covering "unseemly" conduct by students, is
the catch-al- l
under which the
University apparently justifies
calling students before various
boards and deans for other actions
not specifically designated as offenses in the regulations.
But the complications and implications do not end there.
A student caught shoplifting,
for instance, may face several
possibilities. He could be called
into court in Lexington. He could
be called in by the Dean of
Men or the Dean of Women.
Or his case could be referred to
of three advisory boards, the
Student Congress
Judiciary
Board, the Women's Advisory
Council, or the Men's Judiciary
Council.
No formal statements are
made as to the jurisdictional
limits of any body. For instance,
no cases are designated as belonging strictly in the realm of
the dean or one of the advisory
boards.
Occasionally the dean may
withhold a case from one of the
student boards.. Likewise, the
board may refuse to hear a certain
case. Supposedly, the student

Penalties for offenses are not
specified. Missing among University regulations are a list of
offenses for which suspension or
expulsion may be a punishment
applied.
The complicated maze surrounding University regulations
and procedures in disciplining
students, relates to a greater concern within higher education-acade- mic
freedom for the student.
The question has received attention from several organizations, including the American
Civil Liberties Union, the National Student Association, and
the American Association of University Professors.
ACLU was the first to issue
a statement regarding freedoms
in the late 1950 s. Their position
was soon endorsed by NSA. The
AAUP statement was issued last
winter.
Paul Oberst, UK professor of
law and member of the American
Civil Liberties Union, said AAUP
was late to speak ou
