Student Describes Florida Sun And Night Life
By PAUL ZIMMERMAN
Assistant Managing Editor
On Arril 6 tome strange sight. were seen on the
UK campus.
These some antics were repeated on campus in many
parts of the United States at about the same time.
All (he furor mas caused by a disease sometimes known
as Florida lever.
Reaching its rrak in the middle of the afternoon,
carlotids cf fevered students could be seen heading: south,
some fast, frmc more slowly, but all grimly determined
to reach ft. Lauderdale and really live it up.
As the Florida exodus at Easter is new to UK. perhaps an account of the goings-o- n
will be enlightening
for those not fortunate cnouuh to have made the trip,
and Lriiijj back a few memories to those who did.

Leaving Lexington about four In the afternoon, the
roads were generally good through Kentucky and Tennessee to Knoxville. Out of Knoxville there was a very
good road to the Georgia line.
As the night wore on and traffic thinned out, the
cars with UK Rtickers became more evident, passing
each other with much honking and shouting. One group
was dragging a boat with them, complete with UK
stickers on its windshield.
Along about witching hour we crossed into Georgia. Just what a significant step this was became apparent as fillings began to come out of our teeth and
fenders threatened to shake off the car.
Another significant fact arrived at in Georgia was
that our economy ear was getting an astonishing 12
miles to a gallon of gas. New spark plugs fixed us up,
and the rat race was on again.

WW

Now driving to Florida non-sto- p
may not sound too
difficult. Actually doing it is quite a different thing.
Along about 3 a.m. you notice that you're driving in
three lanes of a two lane highway, which Is definitely

not good.
Then you try to wake someone up to take over the
wheel. If you can manage to get them up, you probably
find that your derriere is numb from sitting so long.
This situation is solved when you finally develop callouses and become adjusted to life In an automobile.
About eight o'clock or so In the morning, Florida is
sighted and spirits soar.
A short stop for free orange Juice and Information
is in order, and you try desperately to think of some
intelligent questions as you guzzle.

This exH rime:it combining dentistry w ith mining engineerhas already l en tried at several colleges and with home
very interesting results. Take, for instance, the cae of a deat&l
student named Fred ('. Sigaf(K)s. One day recently Fred waa
out practicing with his drilling rig in a vacant lot just off
campus. He wink a shaft two hundred feet deep and, to hi
surprise and delight, he struck a detergent mine. For a while
Fred thought his fortune was made but he soon learned that
he had drilled into the storage tank of 'the Eagle Ijiundry.
Walter P. Fagle, president of the laundry, was mad as all get-oand tilings looked mighty black for Fred. Hut it all ended
well. When Mr. Kagle called Fred into his office to chew him
out, it so happened that Mr. Fa gle's beautiful daughter, Patient
Criselda, was picscnt. For years Patioiit (iiveldu had been
patiently waiting f. ,r the right man. 'That's him!" she cried

Florida is undoubtedly the longest state in the world. This little
fact dawns after you drive for
hours and then sec by the map
that you are only half way
through the dratted place.
Once in Ft. Lauderdale, things
begin to happen. The first Is usually collapse. About 15 hours of
sleep helps and then life begins to
ebb bark.
The first and most important
place is the BEACH. During the
day the BEACH is covered with
people. Some are tan and walk
with a sort of swagger as opposed
to the white newly arrived who
do not realize that it is perfectly
all right to step on people.
Tan and white alike bask, sit,

is on the BEACH. The most dog-grt. the newly arrived, who bathe in the sun and

which Is the corner of South Atlantic Boulevard and East Las
Olas Boulevard.
If anyone you know is in Florida at the time, you will see them
on this corner. Policemen are stationed at this intersection constantly, about tour being needed to
direct the traffic.
Going up the block, three main
centers of student activity are
found the Elbo Room, the Student Prince Lounge, and Omar's
Tent. There is usually a line waiting to enter all these little dens of
iniquity.
The most popular phrase in Ft.
Lauderdale is "Let's see yer ID."

Police are stationed
every place that sells the demon
rum and every person must produce proof of being the proper
age before he can go in the door.
Perhaps the most inspiring sight
to be seen in the state is the triumphant look of someone who has
successfully gotten in with a fake
ID.
Once inside, a sort of gurgling
roar overwhelms your ears. Fraternity songs, shouting, a general
uproar and drinking noises all go
together.
In the case of the Student
Prince, an elderly man sawing
away on a violin adds somewhat to
the din, but if you are over -- 0
feet away you can't hear him at
all.

place in Pompano, known as
Jade Beach, comes to life at night,
accounting for the desertion of Ft.
Lauderdale's BEACH. Jade Beach
has no sand. It is covered entirely
with beer cans, people, bonfires,
and, occasionally, police.
Gay groups with guitars, bongos and assorted musical instruments sit around the fires singing, etc.
A group of small boys with
northern accents run across the
beach yelling, "Hey, Kentucky! Is
anyone from Kentucky?" They
all have instruments and are ready
to play.
Meanwhile, back in Ft. Lauderdale, the parties go on. A party can
be anywhere and usually is. The
police have become more strict recently, requiring more travel on the
part of the students.
When one party is broken up,
one must find another, a process that sometimes requires as
much as 15 minutes. This goes on
through the night with more singing and a lot of etc.
So this pretty well covers the
routine. If the weather gets bad,
as it did for three days with heavy
seas and the beach determined to
blow across the street,
little
changes.
People grimly lay on the beach,
moving only if the sand drifts over
them. They are determined to get
a tan. The high water is already
there and the rest is on many a
tongue as the sun stubbornly refuses to come out.
When the time finally rolls
around for the return trip, there is
kind of a wistful air which can be
easily recognized as someone looks
at the beach for a long time and
then hurries away, shedding a malty tear.
The trip home is twice as bad as
the first trip. There is little to
say except to think about the good
times had and check your tan
every five minutes to see if the
boiled lobster look is turning brown
yet.
So that's Florida. If you want to
find out about the etc., youH Just
have to go and see for yourself.

* Books For Scholars

On a university campus where
queen contest winners are a dime a

dozen ami students too often are
honored for social activities, presentation of a worthy award is indeed welcome.
And Omicron Delta Kappa, senior
men's leadership honorary, has kept
alive its program initiated last year of
presenting a book to the outstanding
student in every University depart-

ment.
Its objectives are to honor deserving students in each UK department
and encourage the development of
professional libraries for the student's
use. Both are noble and should be
maintained by the organization.
The book award helps in another
area. It creates a healthy and spirited
competition among students to become the best in their respective departments, thus removing much of the

uates being discriminated against
under current conscription laws?
These important questions are receiving little serious thought on U. S.
campuses. Students have largely confined their military interest to questions of compulsory-voluntarROTC
or national defense philosophy. Nevertheless, the draft poses an immediate
and perplexing problem for college
y

males.

Newsweek magazine outlines the
problem in considerable detail in an
article entitled "The Draft Campus
To Chaos." As the magazine points
out, the present draft procedure
throws a major element of confusion
plans. What should
into
college graduate do?
the
Should he enlist and get it over with?
If he wants will he be taken soon
after graduation or will it be a year
or two? Should he try for a job upon
which a career can be built or should
job to kill
he take a
time until he is drafted?
Added to this confusion is the
frustration of the eligibles at seeing
the ineligibles (fathers, physical rejects, hardship cases, etc.) walking
into jobs of their choice and getting
a long head start while they are left
to wrestle with doubt and indecision.

The upsetting of a normal path of
starting on a career is one of the more
aggravating aspects of the draft. Says
Newsweek: "The college graduate
w ho wants a job as a steppingstone to
better things is just out of luck in a
great many cases, as long as the draft
hangs over him." Of course, under
the law, employers must rehire an
employe who has leen drafted out
of a job. But the hard fact facing

most other academic
awards, the ODK Book Award is
neither given hapahazardly. The honorary decided that, rather than selecting winners by a nominating committee, it would allow the head of each
University department to choose
them. This is sensible, for a student's
abilities can be best calculated by his
achievements within his major field.
ODK's award attests to its intelligent leadership and high educational
ideals at UK. Other campus honor-arie- s
might do well to follow with
other ideas improving UK life.

place.
Large companies with elaborate
personnel systems are inclined, says
Newsweek, to insist that draft imminence is no factor in their hiring
policies. However, many fresh college
graduates deny this. They say there
is little chance of getting a decent
job one that will lead anywhere
during the months of limbo between
the bright day of graduation and
the dark one when Uncle Sam's
greetings arrive.
The question that arises is: What
justification is there for, in a time of
nominal peace, maintaining a law
passed in time of stress (1910)? By
1903, when the "bumper baby crop"
comes of age, vast numbers
