IT'S A HARD JOB
The editors of The Kernel take pleasure in reprinting the following editorial taken from the U.
of L. News, weekly newspaper of the University of
Louisville.
It Is reproduced word for word.
HELP WANTED
The phenomenal financial and journalistic success
of The Kentucky Kernel of the University of Kentucky is a thing which has set many members of the
staff of the U. of L. News thinking. The News, of
course, is younger than The Kernel, and It cannot
be expected that it should have accomplished as
much. It is to be hoped that when The News is
fifteen years old it will also be as prosperous and
widely known as The Kernel.
But the U. of L.
News does not enjoy the advantages which unquestionably contributed greatly to the success of The
Kernel. Soon after publication of the first Kernel the
English department and the administration of the
University took an active interest in the paper and
gave the students who were working on it their valuable assistance. Courses in journalism were offered
and a department of journalism was opened. Instruction was most valuable. Credit was given for
work on the paper, and in this way more students
and more talent became interested in the work. The
University itself took means to secure subscriptions
from the students and thus made the paper a finanThe finances were all handled with
cial .success.
advice and supervision of the trained faculty members of the journalism department.
It has been a
handicap to the student staff of the U. of L. News
not to have the aid of the faculty and the administration to the extent which the staff of The Kernel
has had at the University of Kentucky.
The Cardinal News, the first school paper published In the University, was entirely the work of
one man who was vitally Interested in the welfare of
the school and who recognized the lethargy of the
faculty In the matter of organizing literary effort,
took It upon himself after graduation at great personal financial loss to provide a school paper. At the
end of a year he naturally felt that he had done his
share and turned to other work, hoping that somebody would carry on his work. For a semester no
attempt was made to start publication again although
there was much agitation among the students for
a paper. Finally a group of students took it upon
themselves to move the authorities and a paper was
organized, edited, managed and published entirely by
students. The only connection which the faculty had
with the paper was to appoint an original board of
directors, and it must be said that the work of Dean
Brigman was most valuable in starting the new
paper, the U. of L. News. But Dean Brigman's function is not to aid in the expression of literary effort
and he could' afford to devote only so much time
to the paper. Those who did have the function of
aiding literary effort, with the exception of Mrs. Hill,
have not In the year of existence of the paper given
an active or unsolicited aid to the student staff. No
credit has been given for work on the paper, and no
encouragement has been given to induce talented
newcomers to work on Th News. No official action
has been taken.
Last year's editor-in-chiand his first assistant,
the sports editor, after working without any reward
and with no prospects for reward, found that they
would have to give up their positions on the staff
because they could not devote the customary eighteen
hour a week which their work required without getting any credit. This year's editor has informed the
staff that she will give up her position at the end
of this year because she wants to transfer to a school
where she may study journalism.
It Is time for action. The English department and
the administration should make arrangements for
courses in Journalism to be given next fall. Eventually a department of Journalism can be provided, for
there is no question about there being a field here for
such a department. One, three or five semester hours'
credit should be given for work on the school paper.
Grades should be given according to the amount of
a student's work which Is published by the paper,

I
I

or the amount of managerial work. The admlnlslra- Hon should take a certain part of each student's fee
and in return give him a subscription book to The
News and also to the Satyr nnd The Thoroughbred,
and the money accruing from these required fees
should be used to finance the paper. In this way
the University could have a larger nnd better paper,
for the financial success would be assured and n
variety and quantity of talent would be secured for
the staff.
Of course, there has always been and always will
be in nny school opposition to censuring by the
faculty of the printed matter In any of the publications. But the organization of the proposed Journal-Isclasses docs not have to mean censurcshlp. It
will simply mean advice nnd encouragement for students to do more work.
Students can do only so much. They have done
that. They have published unaided nnd without
credit n newspaper which has been a credit to the
school for a year. But growth nnd expansion Is
Impossible without the Inauguration of these proposals.

DR. AMRY VANDENBOSCH
The Kernel, on behalf of the students of the political science department nnd the University at large,
wishes to congratulate Dr. Amry Vandenbosch for
having won n $4,000 traveling fellowship offered by
the Social Science Research Council of New York.
Dr. Vandenbosch will make a detailed stuBy of the
Dutch colonial policy and administration and a comprehensive study of governmental policies of other
European nations.
It Is indeed gratifying in this case to note recognition of earnest effort and ability. When the announcement came, It was not Infrequent that we
heard students express their sincere approval of
Dr. Vandenbosch winning the fellowship. A more
popular instructor with the student body would be
hard to find. This is shown by the large number of
students taking his courses of study in the University.
The Kernel congratuates you, Dr. Vandenbosch.

SLEEP WILL HELP
An 'essential element to scholastic success is sleep.
students will afford
ample proof that the value of the grades is in direct
ratio to the amount of sleep the students receive.
The more sleep, the better the grades.
Even the college students themselves will admit
that most of them spend too many hours before midnight and sometimes after seeking to satisfy their
appetites for "whoopee," rather than In earnest application for educational progress. Strenuous "nights
before" result in "cuts" of the morning classes.
One of the greatest problems which youth must
solve is hqw and when to sleep. It must be learned
that one hour of sleep before midnight is worth
three hours after. Scientists assure us that the most
restful sleep is obtained before the midnight hour.
Regularity, sincerity and stability are the keywords to the solution of when and how to sleep.

If some of the students at the University had
more brains and less "it" there would not be so many

The fraternities at Willlamette college recently
resorted to a forceful means of extracting fraternity
debts from their brothers. Officers of the fraternities made a plea to the college faculty and those
members In debt were not allowed to take their final
examinations.

confessed that he was the guilty party and after a
