Select A Liberal

The chances are excellent that the
University Board of Trustees will select a new dean for the Graduate
School today to replace Dean Herman Spivey, who will accept a position at another institution in February.

ing students from physical education
majors to art students to science majors'. It is variety at its worst.
The position obviously requires a
man with liberal training and a universal outlook on the arts and
sciences. The demands are such that
a specialist, such as a physicist, chemist, psychologist etc., would not adequately be able to handle them. A
more desirable selection would come
from the man disciplined in the liberal arts or education.
The decision of the Board of Trus-- ,
tees today could be a monumental
one in the progress of the University.
Perhaps the effect that a competent
Graduate dean would have never
been measured in terms of prestige
and academic advancement; but if
an incompent one is chosen, it will
be easier for UK to measure the loss
of prestige and descent of academics.
What is most important is to select
a competent one now, pay him well,
encourage him to stay, and then not
worry about replacing him.

Although it is not ' often that the
Kernel sticks its nose, in the business
of the Board of Trustees, the selection of a dean for the Graduate School
holds more than just passing interest
for UK students; it is a decision that
could, in some measure, shape the
destiny of the University and add (or
detract) considerable prestige.
Background and personal achievement are prominent tenets for the
appointment of a new dean and we
suspect that much of the consideration will center around these topics
when the dean vacancy is brought

A Directory Arrives
Despite the late planning of Student Congress for the student directory, the long and tedious hours spent
on the book by the SC committee will
materialize in the circulation of the
directory this week at a nominal
charge Jto UK students.
Although the decision to appoint
a committee for putting out the book
was made too late for earlier production of the book, the coed in charge
of the committee deserves commendation for her effort in supervising
and advising the printing of the directory. The job requires more time and
effort than one student could hardly
afford to consume in one semester.
But, although the committee certainly worked nobly in producing
the book, the delay has contributed
to a degradation in the usefulness of
the directory; many of the students'
addresses and phone numbers will
be changed at the beginning of the
second semester. The University operators have been flooded with informational calls which are difficult
to answer without a telephone directory.
Professional typists, the committee
claims, were hired so that each student's name, address, and phone numprintber could be typed. The cost-oing by a professional company would
have been too great. SC could not
afford the easier way out.
But fhe fact remains that SC machinery on the directory did not begin
to operate until after school was well
under way; the committee selected

The Directory Delay

University of Kentucky

not only was overburdened with
work, but with a lack of time. The
reason for the delay then really stems
back to SC.
It would have been ideal if the
SC committee were selected during
the Spring and then given the entire
summer to plan and supervise the
printing of the book; a station in
registration line for students to report for getting their names in the
student directory would cut the delay
possibly by a month or so. The
typists could do the majority of their
work during the first two day$ of the
semester, and the responsible students would have the excess time to
devote to studies.
And, remembering that an ounce
of prevention is worth a pound of
cure, we might have directories when
they are more useful.

To The Editor:
Concerning your article alxiut the
Student Directory, I would like to clear
up some false statements.
As for last year, the directory came
out before Thanksgiving. Where were
you all when the IxxAs hit the stands,
about Nov. 13?
Why didn't it come out sooner? First
of all our big, old IBM machine in
the Administration Building, last year
war just too busy and small and the
big operators jtist didn't have the time to
print anything as insignificant as a little,
old Student Directory. Oh they would
have, hut it would have taken until
Christmas.
We wanted to give the students a
good book, with home addresses so we
looked into a Lexington company to
print it. Too had we couldn't afford
$2,(XK), for that is the lowest price offer
we had.
Finally in the year of 1938 with IBM
machines etc., we had to hire four
women typists to type out the entire
book. (The addresses were not inserted
later, another error in a recent news
article, but all were typed at the same
time). The .women worked in the Administration Building so they could have
access to the dean's files for addresses.
They did finish in two weeks! The book
was in the hands of our printing de- -'
partment by Oct. 15; A whole month
it took to print the book? That's a
laughl Again, lack of equipment, time,
and people and of course who would
print a little Student Directory before
the big important Kernel or the football
booklets?
Then also, we were told that the University was too poor to finance the
book, so students would have to pay.
Haven't we all heard that liefore? To
top it all off, we heard so many gripes,
and yet several hundred bM)ks were
thrown away.
I would also like to add that if it
wasn't for the influence of Dean Martin,
we wouldn't have leen able to see
the necessary wheels to get things done.
We were just students, you know!
Now I ask you, why don't you all
stop fussing about things and start finding out the "why" about them? The
big Kernel might le able to help students for a change, instead of continually depressing us or making gripers
out of us, too!

Inherit The Earth
To The. Editor:
I was so amused the. other day to
read the concern of your young correspondent, "Luther Martin," for the
world's millions, starving for lack of
birth control.
so idealistic,
His concern was so
how you say? naive.
so
With us Catholics now, the situation
is much more practical. We have, indeed, learned how to have our moral
cake and enjoy it too. After all, it is
best for the church.
So. If a man would have fewer children, why then he has only Jo take
the vow of chastity. And what, then, if
he break his vow? (We Catholics are
men.) Why, for him there
is absolution, and for the church, another soul.
Now, you Protestant idealists go right
on practicing your birth control. In
fifty years, maybe a hundred, how you
za!
We Catholics inherit the
earth.
No, we were not born yesterday,
"Luthei Martin." We were, as a matter
of fact, well established a thousand years
before you were born, and we'll bury
you yet!
