Students Help Plan
UK Health Service
University students will be able
to participate in planning the UK
Health Service.
Official spokesman for the students will be the Student Advisory
Committee to the University Health
Service.

IK President Frank

G. Dickey

authorized the committee and said:
"I believe an established channel
between the
of communication
Health Service and students would
contribute to program development
and operation which is responsible
to the interests and needs of the
group served."
The idea for initiating the committee rests with the Health Service, Dr. Richardson K. Noback, director of the UK unit, said.
Sim e he became director, Noback

said he has tried to Improve the
service offered to students.
Noback said that some medical
schools with "good" health services
have no liason between students
and administration. The new program is an attempt to organize
the medical service and to give the
students what they feel they need
most in this area.
Students who have, accepted
membership on the committee are
Lucy Salmon, Betsy Gibson, Thomas F. Donlon, Garryl Sipple, Frank
Nisbet King Jr.. and Don Capdau.
Noback said the program is expected to help the further development "of a program sensitive to
the needs of students and also to
increase geneia! understanding of
factors important in providing
health care."

UK President Frank G. Dickey
had "no comment" concerning a
resolution in the State Legislature
to change the name of the Albert B. Chandler Medical Center.
Dr. Dickey said he would not
comment on the matter until he
had seen a copy of the resolution.
He said reports of the resolution
were somewhat vague.
The resolution would change the
name of the center to the Ephraim
McDowell College of Medicine.
Dr. Dickey added that he did
not know whether the resolution
if passed, would be a "compelling
force" or not and that he must
study it before comment will be
made.

Magazine Criticizes

Rupp's Philosophy
The current issue of the Nation
Coach
criticizes UK basketball
Adolph Rupp for his philosophy of
winning games to the "corruption"
of its athletes.
The article, entitled "Basketball:
The Fix Is Still Cm" and written
by Willard Manus, quotes an article
in Sports Illustrated last year in
which Rupp said he did not merely wish to participate in sports
but to be successful in them.
It says in part:
"To be sure. Rupp's teams have
always won for him and he has
had the kind of success which has
enabled Kentucky to build a four
million dollar Memorial Coliseum
seating nearly 15.000 people, but
the most telling thing about his
article is that it never once touched on the six Kentucky players

who were indicted in 1951 for fixing games.
"Obviously Rupp sees no connection between the conquistador
philosophy of the game and the
corruption of its athletes."
Primarily, however, the article Is
concerned with the current "fixing'
of ball games at St. John's University and Pittsburgh.
It says, however, in another reference to Kentucky:
colleges that win

Kentucky, Bradley,
North Carolina, etc. are basketball factories; they recruit the best
players on the marxet.
"Round and round it goes; they
recruit their players to build winning teams, to attract crowds, to
get gate receipts in order to recruit more players to win more
games to recruit more players.
"The players are recruited in any
number of ways through tuition
scholarships,
lavish
allowances, summer sinele
cures, a new job for daddy,
cash handouts.
"Most are In flagrant violation of
every standard of amateur sport
that currently exists.
"The NCAA
and the various
other college' athletic councils have
at one time or another passed
sanity codes that call for severe
penalties for such things as 'subsidization eligibility infractions,'
but, as the euphemism indicates,
the issue is never met head on, the
codes are eventually emasculated,
and the game continues on its
dollar-merr- y
whirl."
Dr. Frank G. Dickey, in an article explaining the University's position on recruiting, has said recruiting is clean at UK and that
athletics are not overemphasized.
Coach Rupp could not be reached for comment yesterday.
