cation courses are urged to attend
any one of the convocations, if
their schedules permit.
Dr. Lyman V. Ginger, dean of
the College of Education, expects
the convocations to eliminate
much of the confusion that resulted when UK first adopted the
preclassification system last semester.

"The convocations should make
things easier for students, advisers,
and the administration." he said.
Emphasizing the need for such
a program. Dean Ginger cited the
case of one coed who came to his
office complaining about an "E"

War and was author of the Crittenden Compromise, which sought
to head off the conflict.
Kirwan has spent a full semester
and parts of the past academic
year doing research on the project.
During the period of his fellowship, he will work principally with
materials at the University and
in the Library of Congress.
e
He will take
leave from
his duties as graduate dean during
the first half of the year and will
work on a part-tim- e
basis during
the second semester. An acting
dean will be named for the period
of his absence.
Kirwan, who has been teaching
history at the University since
1945, was appointed dean of the
Graduate School in February.
Dr. Kraehe, a specialist in European diplomatic history, will study
the German policy of Prince Klem-en- s
von Metternich, the Austrian
chancellor who dominated European politics in the first half of
the last century.
In his research proposal, Kraehe
said Metternich has been treated
full-tim-

principally as the defender of an
international conservation order in
Europe.
On the basis of earlier research,
completed while on a Fulbrlght
grant in Vienna, Kraehe stated he
believes the statesman sought to
keep Germany from falling under
Russian domination. He said contrary to all existing accounts,
desired a strong German
union with an effective military
organization which would act as
a bulwark to Russian expansionism.
Kraehe will work principally In
Vienna at the state archives and
will visit archives in Munich,
Stuttgart, and other German cities
for materials.
He expects to complete a volume
on Metternich this summer. His
research will provide material for
a second volume on the Austrian
Met-terni- ch

statesman.
Kraehe has been a member of
the University's history faculty
since 1948. He worked for the UJS.
State Department in the summer
of 1953 as an advisor to German
history teachers on revision of
their history textbooks.

Panelists Discuss Revision
Of Kentucky's Constitution
Whether Kentucky la to data

constitutional convention.
This was the conclusion reached
by members of a panel sponsored
by the Political Science Club Friday afterncon. The topic for discussion was "Revising Kentucky's
State Constitution."
Panel members were John B.

history of its formation and final
adoption. He said that contrary
to popular belief the members of
the constitutional convention in
1890-9- 1
were
sincere men who
founded a constitution In keeping
with that era.
He said the restrictions were due
to the peoples distrust of state
legislatures at that time.
Attorney Gen. Breckinridge said
the convention would be limited to
12 subjects. He stressed the importance of the present restrictions
on the General Assembly concerning the length of sessions, the

"You cannot organize a legislature, staff a committee, do research, and enact 1,000 odd bills

He advocated a continuous session of the legislature rather than
the present GO day session every
two years.
Eblen stressed the difficulty of
the Judicial branch in administering an efficient type of Justice
under the present constitution.
He said Kentucky Is lucky to
have the caliber of Judges it does
due to the insecurity of the Job
and the poor compensation.
"The average voter doesn't know

* PR For The Greeks
After Greek Week was robustly
hailed as a financial success by its
organizers, the Steering Committee
proposed that the profits made from
the event be used to bring a nationally noted speaker to UK next year.
Since then, however, the committee has been silent alxnit the proposal,
and the chances are that it has been
chucked aside and forgotten as many
such ideas often are. We hope the
committee's reticence is not representative of its inactivity, however.
We hope not because the invitation of a national speaker (the committee suggested Eleanor Roosevelt)
could aid both the Greek system and
the University. There are three outstanding reasons why.
1. It would bring prestige to the
University and produce statewide and
perhaps nationwide publicity. It
would also attract many visitors to
UK.
2.

It would elicit favorable public

opinion to the Greek Week Steering
Committee and to the Greek system
as a whole.
3.

It would arouse more interest

in UK fraternities and help to create

better public attitudes toward them.

Much of this year's Greek Week
was open only to Greeks themselves
while, the rest of the UK populace
watched idly Jnd dist interestedly. The
Greeks made'' no real attempt to sell
themselves to Independents, although
they did an excellent job of selling
themselves to themselves.
The appearance of a national
speaker sponsored by the Greeks
might precipitate some of the students' lethargy into favorable attitudes. The speech naturally should
not be confined to Greeks, but should
be open to the public.
UK Greeks should awaken from
their bed of dormancy and realize that
fraternity and sorority systems here
are not held in as high esteem as they
once were. National fraternity officers
have expressed fear because memberships are waning every year.
Many students have shied away from
the Greeks lx'cause of the
on scholarship and preoccupation
with social activity.
We hope the committee's proposal was not forgotten when it was
originally made. If the members were
sincere alxnit creating better public
opinion toward their system, they will
have passed up a promising opportunity if it is allowed to die.

All Talk, No Action
Since the House committee made
its controversial report on the state
of education in Kentucky, public and
private debates on the subject have
been flowing prolific-ally.

Educators have jumped into the
issue with statements and
confusion and more confusion. The result has been a clouding of the committee's actual purpose
in making the report.

counter-statement- s,

Amid the furor, a UK man was
elected president of the Kentucky
Education Association last week and
lie presented the first sensible approach to education in Kentucky that
we have heard in years.
Cornelius R. I lager, director of the
extension class program at the University, lias not only taken note of the
House's report, but has promised that
the KEA intended to do something
about it.
After his election to the office,
Hager said that enough had been said
about the report and that it was
time for the KEA to dispense with
discussion of it and proceed with
doing a good job of improving instruction and teachers in the state.
And he's right. There has been
too much inconsequential screaming

and shouting about the report without too many facts being uncovered.
The House's report was not geared
merely to create talk, but action. Con

sidering the amount of huffing and
puffing going on about it, there
couldn't have been much time for
positive action.
So we note with relief Mr. Hager's
logical attitude toward the improvement of education in Kentucky. It
far surpasses the
bickering that has been going on for
the past month.
pseudo-intellectu-

al

All of the state's educators should
be able to dispense with the report-rat- her
than be offended by it and
seriously try to do something about
education in the state.

The state could use their help.

Got A Flushogram?
By JOHN BAKBOt K
AP Science Writer

you ever had
NEW YORK-Ha- ve
a blind date? Gone to a house party?
Gotten drunk with a girl? l'assed out
on a date? Received a flushogram?
These are some of the questions
put to S33 Yale University males to
find out what changes four years of
Yale make in a relatively innocent
freshman.
Those changes were summed up
by Drs. Ralph M. Rust and James S.
iologist
D a v i e s, a psyc hologist-soteam, reporting to the Eastern Psyc

chological Association.
The questions on dating and social
experience with girls varied from
asking whether the student had ever
had a date, to whether he had been
jilted received a llushogram-- w ithin
the last year.
Generally, a college senior is a
student who has had his lling, explained Dr. Rust in an interview.
The senior has more control over
his social relations and his thinking, directs himself from within, and
is more considerate of others, he said.
Some other highlights from the
Yale stud) :
Sophomores are more likely to dis-

agree and argue with their parents
than either freshmen or seniors.

If stiulents are turned down as

boast the fact that "the entire campus

such outrageous pretenses?
Of course it is admirable of an
organization to try to tie the campus
together in one event, but if they
can t succeed, should they try to appear to appear xictorious?
