Vol. LX, No. 144

Fulbright Opposes ABM In Senate
"The

United
States is
threatened with a form of bankruptcy." This is what Senator J. W. Fulbright told the
Senate when he spoke during
debate on the "Safeguard"
Missile System, which
he opposes.
'It is the effort by some members of the senate to reassert some
control over the Pentagon," he
stated.
"I think it is a great phenomenontwo countries, the
United States and Russia-un-a- lbe
to stop expenditure of funds
Anti-Ballist- ic

that in this country total 80 billion

billion dollars," Fulbright
clared.
The richest nation in the
world, he said, was threatened
because of the spending for weapons. "What I'm getting at, "he
said, "is why these two countries act like such damn fools.
We really don't make any serious
effort to understand ourselves or
the Russians when it comes to a
program like we are discussing
today."
de-

Fulbright

s speech

came as

senators on both sides of the
debate disagreed on what effect
deployment of the safeguard system might have on forthcoming
talks with the
Russians.
arms-limitati-

Democrat Henry Jackson of
Washington said a decision to go
ahead with the ABM would help
the US in the arms conference.
Kentucky's John Sherman
Cooper said he doubts the arms
talks would be influenced greatly
by a vote to deploy the missile
defense system in the early 1970' s.

WHEREAS Dean of Students, Jack Hall, in a speech to the Breakfast Optimist Club on Tuesday, July 1, 19G9, presented opinions
which displayed an unbelievable unawareness of the nature
of student grievances and student unrest; and
WHEREAS we feel that it is our duty to publicly expose views
which Rive the community false ideas about the University;
THEREFORE, we request that the Student Affairs Office personnel,
in the future, (1) investigate more fully the causes and nature
of student problems, and (2) use greater discretion in criticizing
University students, faculty, and administrators.

Community College Work

The Community College system of Kentucky was formally set

Statement of policy in the January meeting of that year, The Executive Committee stated in part, "the community colleges and centers
have roles aligned both with the educational and cultural contributions to be made to the citizens of the communities in which
they are located." Thus, the college for the community and its
citizens, both young and old came into being.

Prof. Karan and a group of student assistants, the map already
has been adopted as the official
national map of Sikkim.
Preparation of the Sikkim map
raised distinct cartographic problems, since so little was known
about the geography of the
country. Since vast areas had
never been chartered, Dr. Karan
said, he and his party had to
collect data in the field.
"Often, adjoining areas were
chartered by conflicting sources,
so we had to reconcile divergent
information relating to a single
location

A major probleni was spelling
native Sikkimese place names in
English. The king of Sikkim aided
Dr. Karan in developing standard
English spelling of the
